1.0 Introduction
Compressive strength of cube testing is to measure the compressive strength of concrete using the cube test. The property of concrete tested is compressive strength. Curing is the maintaining of an adequate moisture content and temperature in concrete at early ages so that it can develop properties the mixture was designed to achieve. The method of curing that we used is ponding and immersion to covering the exposed concrete structure with water. The place held at Bricklaying Workshop, IBTE Nakhoda Ragam Campus. The curing durations of each sample made for this test are 7 day, 21 day and 31 day. The …show more content…

time graph

Curing period vs. strength and durability are . From the graph (table 1) the result ranged of concrete grade was below G20 and the indication of the compressive strength in concrete grade from the graph (table 1) is failed because it is below the G20.
Conclusion
Factor that can influence the strength and durability of concrete are weathering action, chemical attack and any process of deterioration and the main factor influence strength and durability of permeability are can be because of the uses of the admixture of the concrete.
The ideal range of temperature for curing is 20 ± 1℃ and reason for affecting the strength gain if the temperature is not within the ideal range are if the strength gain its mean the strength were increase so the range of the temperature also increase.
