Abstract

Rapid curing concrete construction entails many methods for accelerating construction. Regular acceleration methods include time incentives for project completion. Many construction companies have been using these time incentives for many years, and often contractors will meet these requirements by increasing the size of construction labor. Rapid fast curing concrete construction techniques a contractor can often complete a project without increasing team size or changing normal labor schedules. This project optimized the project schedule by adopting a suitable method to prepare a mix design of rapid curing concrete. After completion of an experimental program, results are compared to those of normal curing days using MSP. The aims are achieved by arriving at a favorable solution to industrial projects in terms of time and money saving. The comparison of results with normal curing days yields the cost-benefit ratio.
