Resumo:This paper presents an experimental verification to analyzes the influence of curing on concrete compressive strength. The study consist in testing several specimens from the same concrete mix, exposed to different humidity conditions (100% and 50% humidity) Comparisons were also made for different mixes. For example, the major differences in compressive strength subjected to different curing conditions were obtained for the lower water/cement ratios.
