This course provides an in-depth understanding of high-early-strength concrete (HESC), emphasizing the crucial role of curing techniques in optimizing compressive strength. Students will explore concrete properties, experimental methods, and predictive modelling, equipping them with the skills to innovate in modern construction. By the end, you will understand the importance of curing conditions and be able to apply advanced models to predict HESC strength effectively.

Key Topics:

• Overview of concrete properties and compressive strength
• Impact of curing conditions on strength development
• Experimental methods for measuring concrete compressive strength
• Properties and applications of high-early-strength concrete (HESC)

This course targets structural engineers and construction professionals looking to deepen their understanding of HESC. A basic knowledge of concrete technology and materials science is recommended.
