123-128The quality of mixing and curing water plays a vital role in production and application of concrete. In the present study, the effect of strong alkaline substances like sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) on setting time and strength development of concrete is assessed under the laboratory conditions. The results indicate that Na2CO3 in deionised water accelerates the initial as well as final setting times whereas the other compound NaHCO3 retards the initial and final setting times in all concentrations. Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 in deionised water decrease the compressive and tensile strength of concrete specimens significantly at 28 days and 90 days. Comparison of the results of strong alkaline compounds with those o...
