Influence of the Kinds and the Content of Expansive Additive on the Properties of Shrinkage of High Performance Concrete

고성능 콘크리트의 수축특성에 미치는 팽창재 종류 및 혼입률의 영향

The objective of this paper is to investigate the length change of high performance concrete using expansive additives to reduce autogenous shrinkage and drying shrinkage. The kinds and the contents of expansive additives are varied. The expansive additives are used made from Japan(CSA type;JEA), China(CSA type;CEA) and Korea(gypsum type; KEA), respectively. According to results, remarkable variations of the properties at fresh concrete are not found with dosage of expansive additives. For compressive strength, it decreases about 6-10% with expansive additives of 10%. Autogenous shrinkage decreases about 32%, and drying shrinkage does about 35%, respectively, with expansive additives of 5%, and about 68% and about 55%, with expansive additives of 10%. Accordingly, expansive additives demand requires 10% by cement weight in order to reduce shrinkage of high performance concrete more effectively in the sphere of this study, and JEA shows the best shrinkage reducing performance among the tested expansive additives.
