Abstract
Based on an experimental method of studying the autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete (HPC) in a mould of low-density flexible corrugated pipe, this paper presents experimental results and a prediction model for autogenous shrinkage of HPC with respect to water to cementitious materials ratio, replacement ratio of fly ash, air content and aggregate to cementitious materials paste ratio. Reasonably good agreement is observed between the experimental and predicted autogenous shrinkage, thus indicating that the proposed model can be successfully used to estimate the effects of the studied parameters on the development of autogenous shrinkage in HPC.
