2.5.7 Curing [11]
The importance of proper curing can never be understated. Proper curing procedures are
essential in preventing excessive moisture loss at early ages that can result in plastic shrinkage
and loss in tensile strength capacity at the surface. Curing should begin as soon after placement
and finishing as possible to minimize loss of bleed water. Figure 2.11 shows the curing crew
following the paving machine closely. For concrete overlays, It is recommended that a double
application of the curing compound be used [5, 32].Figure 2.11. Prompt curing following the paver
