Abstract
This paper describes an application of curing method using membrane curing compound consistently to airport concrete pavement. First, the laboratory tests were conducted to clarify volume of drying shrinkage, flexural strength and volume of water retention. Then, test pavement was constructed and we measured volume of drying shrinkage and temperature in situ. As the result, following conclusions were obtained : (1) volume of drying shrinkage was lager in the beginning and less in the latter than that of water curing specimens. (2) flexural strength was over 90% as much as that of water curing specimens. (3) Variation of pavement temperature on curing compound area was larger than that on water curing area in the beginning of curing term.
