Comparison of properties of prefabricated interlocking pavement blocks cured at different conditions

In this study, influence of curing condition and fly ash content on properties of pre-fabricated concrete interlocking blocks (PCIBs) were investigated. The blocks were produced with crushed sand stone (fine) and crushed stone (coarse) as aggregate. Also, fly ash was added to mixtures in different r...
