Title	Effect of different curing conditions on the mechanical properties of UHPFC
Abstract	(Received: Match 20, 2013; Accepted in Revised Form: June 22, 2013) Abstract: Ultra-High Performance Fiber Concrete (UHPFC) is a new class of concrete. Because of its distinguished mechanical properties, UHPFC is considered as an ideal alternative material for use in developing new structural solutions. This paper discusses on influence of different curing conditions on mechanical properties of UHPFC. An experimental program was performed to study the mechanical properties of UHPFC which were cured under six different curing conditions. Test results indicated that steam and boil curing methods showed a promising performance particularly at early age of curing compared to other type of curing.
