Influence of different curing methods on the compressive strength of ultra-high-performance concrete: A comprehensive review

TL;DR: In this paper , a comprehensive study of the different effects of different curing methods on the strength development of normal concrete and UHPC is presented. But, it is not practical to specify the peak curing regimes for concrete or UHC since the best results need critical monitoring of curing parameters.
