Since Modern bridges have a tendency to make the spans continuous and longer, the effect of concrete shrinkage and creep is very important and must be evaluated appropriately for the durability and safety of steel-concrete composite bridges. However, highway design specification in current use prescribes $180^{1\;2}$ as the final shrinkage strain. which is for less value than one resulted from many experimental researches and cause some problems in the construction of composite bridges due to the understimation of shrinkage strain. Thus, in this paper nonlinear analysis with time-steps applying the CEB-FIP(90) provision have been conducted for plate girder bridge, box girder bridge and Preflex beam bridge and the linear equivalent shrinkage strain for the design of composite bridges. which produces the stress equal to the values from the nonlinear analysis, has been calculated by comparing the results with the values following highway design specification. The results yield appropriately double values than $180^{1\;2}$ which highway design specification prescribes.

This study was carried out to investigate the long-term deformation of superplasticized concrete. Compressive strength, shrinkage, creep and creep recovery of concretes with and without the superplasticizing admixture have been compared for one year. The test results on creep of superplasticized concrete were also compared with three methods of predicting creep; the ACI model, the CEB model and the BP model. According to test results, superplasticized concrete has good results in compressive strength at an age of 28 days of more than 22%, drying-shrinkage cured at air-conditioned storage less than 15%, creep deformation in air conditioned storage and loaded at an age of 28 days to 15% of compressive strength less than 11% of control concrete.

Water binder ratio combine high-performance concrete shrinkage of less than 0.4 to determine the transformation to a total shrinkage of water to move outside and internal consumption of moisture due to drying shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage, and then, the relative humidity changes and strain to be approached by surface physics describe the relationship between self-desiccation and autogenous shrinkage was set. To verify the self-desiccation in the humidity shrinkage and humidity measurements performed, and the research model, Tazawa, CEB-FIP model than to let the measure and the most similar results in this study based on self-desiccation model, autogenous shrinkage didn't represent the linear shrinkage by the drying shrinkage of the external moving but exponential relationships, unlike with the nature and rapid in the early age properly describes the attributes in shrinkage could see. After this research to move moisture and to reflect the shrinkage model, temperature, moisture transfer, strain analysis by multi-physics model is very similar to the results of mock-up specimen measurements performed for this research, the value measured by the internal consumption of moisture, therefore self-desiccation and a multi-physics model considering autogenous shrinkage might be relevant.

The objective of this study is to examine the drying shinkage and autogenuous shrinkage strains of heavyweight magnetite concrete. As a main parameters, cement was partially replaced by fly ash (FA) from 5% to 35%. The measured shrinkage strains were compared with predictions obtained from CEB-FIP equations and Yang et al.'s model. Test results showed that the magnitite of the autogenous and total shrinkage strains of heavyweight concrete slightly increased as the amount of fly ash increases up to 15%, beyond which the strains tended to decrease. The CEB-FIP equations considerably underestimated the shrinkage behavior of heavyweight concrete, indicating that this trend was more notable with the age. On the other hand, Yang et al.'s model predicted accurately the shrinkage of heavyweight concrete.

Shrinkage strains of concrete slab in multi-story building are restrained by structural members such as columns or walls, then can induce cracks due to excessive shrinkage stress over tensile strength of member. In this study, a shrinkage stress analysis method of concrete slab in multi-story building considering not only material properties such as shrinkage, creep and reinforcement effect but also construction sequence is proposed. Tensile stresses of slab due to shrinkage are calculated by converting shrinkage strains into equivalent temperature gradients, creep that can release shrinkage stress can be considered by replacing the modulus of elasticity of concrete, Ec , to the effective secant modulus of elasticity of concrete, E$\_$eff/ Reinforcements are also considered by modeling them as equivalent beam elements in FEM program. Results of step by step analysis reflecting construction sequence summed up to calculate stresses of the whole building considering that shrinkage stresses of the building come from the difference of shrinkage between i-th floor and (i-1)-th floor, named as effecitive shrinkage, and it can be varied by construction sequence. The results of 10-story example building show that shrinkage stresses of lower floors are greater than those of upper floors, that is, stresses of lower floors(1∼2FI.) exceed modulus of rupture of concrete, but stress ratios of higher floors are in the range of 27.9∼92.8%.

The use of half PC slab has been increasing to shorten construction period. Because the drying shrinkage of topping concrete is restrained by PC slab, the tensile stress is generated at the topping concrete and the cracks can be occurred at the topping concrete due to drying shrinkage. Therefore, it is important to predict the tensile strain of half PC slab due to drying shrinkage to improve the quality of half PC slab. However, there is no studies on prediction of shrinkage behavior of half PC slab yet. Therefore, in this study, half PC slab was made, and the predictability of tensile strain generated at half PC slab due to drying shrinkage was investigated. The step by step method considering creep was used to estimate the tensile strain of half PC slab. In result, good agreement was obtained between the analytical and experimental values.

The unrestrained shrinkage strain of alkali-activated (AA) slag concrete was examined and compared with design equations specified in code provisions and empirical equations proposed by Yang et al. The main parameters investigated were the water-to-binder ratio (W/B), unit water content and fine aggregate-to-total aggregate ratio (S/a). Test results revealed that shrinkage strain of AA slag concrete is nearly proportional to the W/B ratio, whereas its time function is independent of the W/B ratio. The shrinkage strain of AA slag concrete increased significantly when the unit water content is above $185kg/m^3$, whereas it is marginally affected by the S/a ratio. The design equation of ACI 209 considerably overestimates the shrinkage behavior of AA slag concrete, whereas CEB-FIP equation tends to underestimate the shrinkage at the age more than 28 days. The empirical equation of Yang et al. is in better agreement with test results, showing that values of mean and standard deviation of error coefficients obtained from each specimen are 016 and 0.07, respectively.

콘크리트내의 물의 흐름의 양과 방향을 결정하는 수리에너지의 분포는 그양의 변화에 따라 콘크리트의 수축과 팽창을 지배하는 응력의 일종이다. 따라서 이 수리에너지와 건조수축 변형율 사이에는 직접적인 연관관계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 건조수축과 수리에너지 사이의 이론적인 관계를 논리적으로 유도하여 두 개의 변수사이의 상관관계를 밝히는 이론식을 유도하였다. 본 논문에서는 세 개의 건조수축 작동구조(메카니즘)중 평상적인 상대습도하에서, 즉 50%이상에서, 작용하는 작동구조만을 고려하였다. 열전 쌍 싸이크로미터를 콘크리트 슬라브에 매설하여 수리에너지를 측정하고 동시에 건조수축량을 측정하여 두 측정값사이의 상관관계를 밝힘으로서 유도된 이론을 증명하고자 하였다. 측정결과는 본 이론의 타당성을 증명하는 동시에 본 이론이 실제 구조물의 건조수축량의 측정에 이용될수 있는 방법도 동시에 보여 주었다.

시멘트 모르터의 소성수축에 의한 균열을 방지하기 위해 소성수축 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 우리나라 봄철의 대표적인 기후인 온도 20$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$, 상대습도 55%, 풍속 3.5m/s의 기후조건으로 하였으며, 모르터의 물 시멘트 비, 시멘트 골재 비, 팽창재 사용, 플라이 애쉬 치환, 수분증발을 억제하기 위한 중점제 등을 사용하여 소성수축의 특성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과 소성수축 변형은 응결시간과 밀접한 관계가 있으며 응결시간이 빠를수록 변형은 크게 나타났다. 또한 물시멘트 비에 의해서도 소성수축 변형은 큰 것으로 나타났다. 모르터에서의 골재 비율이 작거나, 플라이 애쉬의 치환율이 클수록 소성수축 변형은 매우 크게 나타났다. 중점제의 사용은 소성수축 변형을 줄이는데 효과가 있었으며, 건조수축 보상용 팽창재의 사용은 소성수축 변형율을 크게 하는데 이는 ettringite 생성에 의한 물 시멘트 비의 감소효과를 가져오기 때문이다.

This study was performed to analyze test results on drying shrinkage for concrete specimens mixed with various constituents in concrete mixes. Test variables are coarse aggregate types(Limestone, Sandstone, Granite, Andesite, Gneiss), fine aggregate types(natural sand, crushed sand) and cement amounts(normal strength, high strength). Epoxy coating of(U&V-H(A,B)) was applied onto the specimen surface to simulate diverse volume surface ratios(22.2, 40, 85.7, 150, 200, 300) with different specimen sizes. The experiments had been executed during 1,014 days at a condition of $20^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity of 60% in environmental chambers. Test results showed that shrinkage strain from the specimen equivalent to real pavement decreased to 39% compared to the standard specimen recommended by KS. Test results also showed that shrinkage strain of the specimen mixed with Limestone was 56~76% of that with Sandstone, thus Limestone mix seems to be suitable to the concrete pavement.
