The shrinkage of high strength/high performance concrete is very important property for the good working of a structure since it very often generates early age cracking due to thermal and autogenous shrinkage. Autogenous shrinkage occurs as a result of internal moisture depletion due to hydration and temperature-induced effects. The level of autogenous shrinkage occurring due to hydration also depends on temperature history at very early age. It is necessary that effect of temperature on autogenous shrinkage is investigated since the stress generated due to autogenous shrinkage is quantified. In this study, Effect of hydration heat evolution on autogenous shrinkage of high strength concretes with W/C=25-40% was investigated.

Self-compacting concrete (SCC), characterized by the high flowability and resistance to segregation, is due to the high amount of paste (including cement and mineral admixtures) in contrast with normal concrete (NC). However, the high amount of paste will limit the volume fractions of coarse aggregate,and reduce the tendency of coarse aggregate to suppress drying shrinkage deformations. For this reason, SCC tends to produce higher values of drying shrinkage than NC for the most part. In order to assess the drying shrinkage of SCC quantitatively for application to offshore caisson foundations, the formulas presented in the literatures (ACI 209 and CEB-FIP) are used to predict the values of drying shrinkage in SCC according to the corresponding mix proportions. Additionally, a finite element (FE) model, which assumes concrete to be a homogeneous and isotropic material and follows the actual size and environmental conditions of the caisson, is utilized to simulate stress distribution situations and deformations in the SCC caisson resulting from the drying shrinkage. The probability of cracking and the behavior of drying shrinkage of the SCC caisson are drawn from the analytic results calculated by the FE model proposed in this paper.

This study is to investigate the engineering and shrinkage properties of concrete incorporating shrinkage reducing agent(SRA) and expansive additive(EA) in order to reduce shrinkage of concrete. According to results, as for the properties of fresh concrete, increase in, SRA and EA content leads to reduce the fluidity but to increase the air content, and as for setting time, there is little difference. For strength properties, it decreased with an increase in SRA dosage and increased up to 5% of EA content. For the properties of drying shrinkage, it shows decline tendency with an increase in SRA and EA content reiteratively. It alto reduces significantly with the combination of SRA-EA systems due to the combined effect of the admixture. In the scope of this paper, it is found that the use of SRA with 0.5％ and EA with 5% has optimum effects on the various properties of concrete. And under the combination of SRA and EA, it can reduce drying shrinkage about 37%.

This paper presents the results of four long-term experiments carried out to investigate the time-dependent behaviour of composite floor slabs with particular attention devoted to the development of non-uniform shrinkage through the slab thickness. This is produced by the presence of the steel deck which prevents moisture egress to occur from the underside of the slab. To observe the influence of different drying conditions on the development of shrinkage, the four 3.3 m long specimens consisted of two composite slabs cast on Stramit Condeck $HP^{(R)}$ steel deck and two reinforced concrete slabs, with the latter ones having both faces exposed for drying. During the long-term tests, the samples were maintained in a simply-supported configuration subjected to their own self-weight, creep and shrinkage for four months. Separate concrete samples were prepared and used to measure the development of shrinkage through the slab thickness over time for different drying conditions. A theoretical model was used to predict the time-dependent behaviour of the composite and reinforced concrete slabs. This approach was able to account for the occurrence of non-uniform shrinkage and comparisons between numerical results and experimental measurements showed good agreement. This work highlights the importance of considering the shrinkage gradient in predicting shrinkage deformations of composite slabs. Further comparisons with experimental results are required to properly validate the adequacy of the proposed approach for its use in routine design.

Drying shrinkage cracking which may be caused by the relatively large specific surface is a matter of grave concern for latex modified concrete(LMC) overlay and rapid-setting cement latex modified concrete(RSLMC) overlay. Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation was to study the drying shrinkage properties of LMC and RSLMC with the main experimental variables such as cement types(ordinary portland cement, rapid setting cement), latex contents(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%), W-C ratios, and curing days at a same controlled environment of 60% of relative humidity and $20^{\circ}C$ of temperature. Test results revealed that the drying shrinkage of latex modified concrete(LMC), rapid-setting cement latex modified concrete(RSLMC) was considerably lower than that of ordinary portland cement concrete(OPC), rapid-setting cement concrete(RSC), respectively. This may be attributed to the interlocking of hydrated cement and aggregates by a film of latex particles, water retention due to hydrophobic and colloidal properties of the latexes, resulting in reduced water evaporation.

From a viewpoint of construction cost and preserving management of pavement, a policy of domestic pavement was gradually spreaded concrete pavement rather than asphalt. But the use of concrete with ordinary portland cement has shortages, such as dry-shrinkage, low flexural strength, etc. In order to overcome these problems, the concrete pavement using CSA expansive additive (Non-Shrinkage Cement) was studied and carried out the fie이 application. As the results, we find out Non-Shrinkage Cement that was distinguished in short-term construction by increasing flexural strength, shrinkage compensating and low-heat evaluation compared with OPC concrete.

The mechanical properties of specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete and the contribution of specialty cellulose fiber to drying shrinkage crack reduction potential of concrete and theirs evaluation are presented in this paper. The effects of differing fiber volume fraction(0.03%, 0.06%, 0.08%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2%) were studied. The results of tests of the specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete were compared with plain and polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete. Flexural performance(flexural strength and flexural toughness) test results indicated that specialty cellulose fiber reinforcement showed an ability to increase the flexural performance of normal- and high- strength concrete(as compared to plain and polypropylene fiber reinforced concrete). Optimum specialty cellulose fiber reinforced concrete were obtianed using 0.08% fiber volume fraction. Drying shrinkage cracking test results confirmed specialty cellulose fibers are effective in reducing the drying shrinkage cracking of normal and high-strength concrete(as compared to popylene fiber reinforced concrete).

This study is intended to investigate the influence of mineral admixtures on the autogenous and drying shrinkage of high performance concrete. According to results, drying shrinkage increases with increase of fly ash content, and it does not show difference with replacement of blast furnace slag powder. It increases when incorporating silica fume or fly ash and silica fume together. The autogenous shrinkage shows increasing tendency with increase of silica fume and blast furnace slag powder content, and incorporating of silica fume or fly ash and silica fume together has effects on reducing autogenous shrinkage. Therefore, it is considered that application of both silica fume and fly ash can reduce the cracks caused by autogenous shrinkage, including enhancement in strength and placeability of high performance concrete.
