Wind, humidity, and sunlight are all factors in how long it takes for concrete to cure, walking, normally about 1 to 2 days. 5. How long does it take for concrete to cure enough to drive on? Again, wind, humidity, and sunlight are all factors but the standard is about 5 to 7 days. Start with a minimum of 2 people for a 1 cubic yard pour. 2  Add one person for each additional cubic yard of concrete. 3  If you are using wheelbarrows to move the concrete form the truck to the forms, add an additional person.
Good luck. Typical concrete takes 28 days (4 weeks) to cure. Prior to the 28 days concrete still has moisture in it that weakens the strength of the concrete. If you seal it prior to 28 days there is a chance you will be sealing in some of that moisture and hence weakening the integrity of the concrete.
