This test method covers procedures for curing concrete specimens under conditions intended to accelerate the development of strength.

We offer three different versions:

  • 55-C0194/D model which cover the ASTM C684, C1768 (Procedure A, warm water method) and BS 1881:112 for 35-55°C hot water method.
  • 55-C0194/DV similar to the above, but covering steam method.
  • 55-C0194/E model, covering both hot water and steam method.

Smart Design

  • Our stainless steel curing tanks have been designed for hot water curing or steam curing in accelerated strength concrete.
  • The electronic programmer can control up to four test cycles with various thermal gradients and curing time to a defined temperature value for a complete automatic curing cycle.
  • The control panel include a 28 column thermal printer.
