Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is highly workable concrete with high strength and high performance that can flow under itsow n weight through restricted sections without segregation and bleeding. It is observed that the behaviour of the design concrete mix issignificantly affected by many factors including variation in humidity and temperature both in fresh and hardened state. In this paper effectof few selected curing techniques on early age (3 & 7 days) compressive strength of M30 grade self-compacting concrete (SCC) isdiscussed. It is observed that immersion method for curing gives maximum compressive strength while the low est compressive strength isfor ice curing. It is also observed that SCC can prove effective in sea water curing.
