How long does cement take to dry?

Question

Sidewalk cement, that's about 6 inches thick...

Answer 1

Although I have never seen a 6" thick sidewalk (except for possibly at a driveway) it would probably be a week before you could drive over it. My front porch was 4" thick and they waited 3 days before removing the forms.

Answer 2

first of all cement is an ingredient in concrete its concrete that dries anyways usually you can walk on concrete in 24 hrs the full curing process is about 30 days depending upon different situations

Answer 3

it depends upon the cement. some of them dry within 3hrs or some time 24hrs too.
