The effects of mixing time and curing temperature on the uniaxial compressive strength(UCS) and microstructure of cemented hydraulic fill(CHF) and sodium silicate-fortified backfill(Gelfill) were investigated in the laboratory.A series of CHF and Gelfill samples was mixed for time periods ranging from 5 min to 60 min and cured at temperatures ranging from 5 C to 50 C for 7 d.14 d or 28 d.Increasing the mixing time negatively influenced the UCS of Gelfill samples,but did not have a detectable effect on CHF samples.The curing temperature had a strong positive impact on the UCSs of both Gelfill and CHF.An elevated temperature caused rapid UCS development over the first 14 d of curing.Mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP) indicated that the pore size distribution and total porosity of Gelfill were altered by curing temperature.
