Influence of shrinkage reducing admixtures on distinct SCC mix compositions

Shrinkage cracking is a major problem in view of the durability of cement-based materials. One way to mitigate shrinkage, and thus reduce or avoid shrinkage cracking, consists in adding a shrinkage-reducing admixture (SRA) during mixing. SRAs are known for their capability to reduce shrinkage but th...
