Abstract: : The properties of cement-based products, especially their durability, are predominantly influenced by curing, since it has a remarkable effect on the hydration of the cement. Proper curing of cement-based products is crucial to obtaining design strength and maximum durability. The curing period depends on the type of cement works, the purpose for which it is to be used and the surrounding atmosphere, namely temperature and relative humidity. Curing is designed primarily to maintain the moisture, by avoiding the loss of moisture from the period in which it is gaining strength. Curing may be applied in a number of different processes and the mass appropriate means of curing may be directed by the site or the construction method. In this critique, a paper struggle has been made to understand the working and efficiency of curing system which are generally adopted in the construction industry and compared with the standard water curing method.
