Abstract

Abstract This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation carried out to assess the effect of some selected curing techniques on the compressive strength of concrete produced by partially replacing ordinary Portland cement (OPC) with Palm Oil Fuel Ashes (POFA) at percentage levels 0%, 10% and 15%. The influence of the POFA and the various curing techniques were evaluated by determining the compressive strength of the concrete produced. The results showed that the compressive strength of concrete increase as the percentage of POFA increases, and it also showed that the curing by immersion in water has the most effect on the strength of concrete.
