Curing of Portland Cement Concrete Pavements: 4 PDH
$24.00
SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE OR SKILL OBTAINED
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Explain the role of curing in achieving durable and strong concrete pavement, and identify consequences of inadequate curing.
- Distinguish between the initial and final curing periods and describe their specific requirements and timing.
- Evaluate environmental and material conditions that influence curing needs, including bleeding rates, evaporation rates, and concrete temperature.
- Apply appropriate curing techniques—such as curing compounds, water-based methods, and sheet materials—based on project-specific conditions.
- Identify factors contributing to plastic shrinkage and thermal cracking, and implement corrective actions to mitigate these issues during paving.
- Verify curing effectiveness through practical methods, including visual inspection, reflectometry, and temperature/moisture measurement tools.
