Abstract
The effects of a recently developed shrinkage-reducing admixture on high-performance concrete properties are described. High-performance concrete mixtures containing silica fume were cast with and without shrinkage-reducing admixture. The mechanical properties, drying shrinkage, and resistance to restrained shrinkage cracking were investigated. The results show that the shrinkage-reducing admixture effectively reduced the shrinkage of high-performance concrete, and resulted in a significant decrease in restrained shrinkage cracking.
