Abstract: High-performance concrete (HPC) is a type of concrete that offers superior durability, strength, and workability compared to conventional concrete. Curing plays a crucial role in achieving the desired mechanical properties and long-term durability of HPC. This research article reviews the impact of different curing methods on the properties of HPC, including compressive strength, durability, and crack resistance. The study evaluates the traditional and modern curing techniques, such as water curing, membrane curing, steam curing, and curing with advanced materials. The results suggest that curing methods significantly influence the strength development and durability of HPC, with some techniques providing more consistent and enhanced results than others.
