Abstract
Due to my experiences on site, I identify the lack of control in the curing of concrete
elements, generally due to the need to advance with the works, leaving the importance of
this procedure in the background, many times it is because it is not understood how much
resistance it can lose the concrete when it is not properly cured.
The objective of this monograph is to be able to identify the importance of concrete curing
for the development of mechanical properties, to establish curing methods that are viable for
works, in addition to obtaining an interval of resistance difference referring to concrete cured
in the laboratory and one outdoors to help engineers make decisions regarding the curing of
concrete on site.
The way in which this thesis will be carried out is by compiling information from different
investigations carried out worldwide, regarding the curing of concrete, identifying its
importance for the development of the chemical reactions of cement, the affectation in the
mechanical properties, in addition, an investigation will be carried out to determine the
difference in resistance between a concrete sample cured in the laboratory and another
outdoors (in the climate of the city of Bogotá).
In the development of this thesis it was possible to conclude that the curing of concrete is
vital for the development of the mechanical properties and durability of the concrete, in
addition, a difference in resistance could be evidenced in the concrete cured in the laboratory
and the other in the open. up to 21%, which is quite considerable.
