The concrete curing process plays a decisive role in improving the quality of the concrete building and is one of the indispensable links in modern construction.

[0003] During the curing of the concrete, the surface of the concrete structure needs to be kept moist and exposed to the atmosphere to improve the hardening speed. At present, the most common method of concrete curing is manual spraying, which uses a high-pressure water pump to spray the surface of the concrete structure to keep it moist, and then sprays a plastic film or covers a geotextile to maintain the temperature and slow down the loss of water. This method of concrete curing has many limitations when curing the mass concrete bottom plate structure: due to the large volume of the concrete structure, the manual spraying method is not only inefficient and wastes a lot of water, but also causes uneven spraying, different temperature and humidity, resulting in inconsistent hardening and shrinkage of the concrete structure, and cracking or other quality problems.
