The Effect of Different Curing Methods on the Compressive Strength of Eggshell Concrete

The Effect of Different Curing Methods on the Compressive Strength of Eggshell Concrete

The work assesses the effect of different curing conditions on the compressive strength of the eggshell concrete. Two different qualities of the eggshell powder were used to make concrete with 0.45 water/cement ratio. The eggshell powders were treated as partial cement replacement of 5%, 10%, 15% an...
