Early-strength-concrete (ESC) made of Type I cement with a high Blaine value of $500m^2/kg$ reaches approximately 60 % of its compressive strength in 1 day at ambient temperature. Based on the 210 compressive test results, a generalized rateconstant material model was presented to predict the development of compressive strengths of ESC at different equivalent ages (9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 100 and 168 h) and maximum temperatures (20, 30, 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$) for design compressive strengths of 30, 40 and 50 MPa. The developed material model was used to find optimum curing regimes for precast prestressed members with ESC. The results indicated that depending on design compressive strength, conservatively 25-40 % savings could be realized for a total curing duration of 18 h with the maximum temperature of $60^{\circ}C$, compared with those observed in a typical curing regime for concrete with Type I cement.

This study is basic experiment for estimating influence of strength by curing temperature of concrete's heat of hydration and estimate relationship of compressive strength development by initial curing temperature factor, and then asume temperature factor which influence compressive strength development and for showing basic document of quality control. According to the result of cement mortar by the curing temperature factor high-curing temperature shows high strength on 3 day compare with low curing-temperature, shows higher strength than the piece of high curing temperature.

This study examined the curing temperature of concrete with a photothermal insulation sheet to shorten the curing time of concrete as part of construction cost and period reduction. According to the experiment results, the heating performance effect is confirmed through the temperature difference between photothermal insulation sheet and bubble sheet. And it has a high curing temperature in the order of bubble sheet (photo heating material B) > bubble sheet (photo heating material A) > bubble sheet on same layers.

In this study, analyzed the difference in compressive strength of concrete under cold conditions, using the 28-day standard curing compressive strength as a reference and examining variations based on cement types and curing temperatures. The results showed that the strength difference based on curing temperatures reached up to 9MPa at 0℃. However, as the curing period progressed, the difference in strength due to curing temperature gradually diminished. These findings are anticipated to be valuable for concrete mixing and quality control in cold weather conditions.

The surface of concrete tiles is weak in moisture that it occurrenced efflorescence, but in the former study we found that it is possible to ensure moisture stability of concrete surface by autoclaving. So this study is to discuss the moisture stability and Physical Properties of high-strength glossy concrete according to time and temperature of autoclave curing. As the results, by increasing time and temperature of autoclave curing, compressive strength and surface hardness increased and glossiness decreased. In the case to 3 hour and $180^{\circ}C$ of autoclave curing, there is not effloescences in mosture stability test.

This study is carried out (1) checking the development of compressive strength of high flowing concrete at early age, changing water-binder ratio, curing temperature, and type of aggregate, and (2) suggesting basic date that helping cost and schedule plan in future construction. As the result of this study, we find that high curing temperature is effective for the development of compressive strength of concrete at early age on the condition of each water-binder ratio, and after making the compressive prediction formula related to the curing temperature by maturity, the result of the formular is similar to the temperature-compressive strength-age measured data

The maturity concept was adopted to predict the strength of concrete, which was subjected to same temperature conditions and variable curing conditions. Penetration test and compressive test were conducted to measure the initial and final setting time and the compressible strength of concrete specimen, respectively. Also, the temperature and time were recorded at some intervals of time for calculating the maturity. The initial and final setting were delayed as the w/c ratio increased and curing temperature decreased. The activating energy decreased as the w/c ratio increased. The relationships at the relative strength and the maturity were proposed at different w/c ratio for the same temperature curing condition, and these were applied for the variable curing conditions. The results indicated that the difference between the strength of the proposed and the specimen was big at 1 days's age but quite similar after 3 day's age.

The way to shorten a construction period is considered to an very important technology element as reducing the form work removal periods with promoting strength revelation own concrete. This study presents an experimental study on the development method, material for early strength concrete. The result is as follow : In OPC, the compressive strength has over 5MPa after 26hours at 20$^{\circ}C$ curing and another 36hours at 10$^{\circ}C$ curing. Used with early strength potland cement, the compressive strength has over 5MPa after 15hours at 20$^{\circ}C$ curing temperature and another 30hours at 10$^{\circ}C$ curing temperature.

It has been gradually increased with the use of resin based membrane forming agent for curing method, which plays a role in protecting moisture evaporation by forming resin membrane at the surface of concrete. In this paper, tests were carried out to examine moisture retention capability of cement mortar applying membrane forming agent. Dosages and types of the membrane forming agent were varied. It is found that sheet curing sealed with the surface of concrete closely has favorable moisture retention capability. However, the application of membrane forming curing method had superiority in moisture retention capability at early stage but at later age, its capability is deteriorated. Hence, further study regarding altering application method was necessary to secure enhanced moisture retention capability.
