Shrinkage Curve: Experimental Study and Modelling

In order to study the shrinkage process of clayey soil, we perform a modified laboratory test allowing to measure simultaneously and continuously the vertical displacement and the weight of natural state specimen. The experiment was conducted on undisturbed clayey specimen. Using the experimental results, and on the basis of the existing relation between the soil water content and its structura...

Curing with Shrinkage-Reducing Admixtures Beyond drying shrinkage reduction

Shrinkage of concrete, along with the cracking that often accompanies it, has been a continual concern of the concrete construction community.1,2 In the past 20 years or so, numerous shrinkage-reducing admixtures (SRAs) have been developed with the goal of reducing drying shrinkage and delaying or preventing cracking.2-6 Most SRAs function by reducing the surface tension of the pore solution in...

Drying Shrinkage Mechanisms in Portland Cement Paste

The shrinkage mechanisms of portland cement paste were investigated from shrinkage, weight loss, and pore structure measurements using nitrogen sorption and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). Thin samples (2.3 mm) of well-hydrated (165 d) pastes of 0.4 and 0.6 water-to-cement (W/C) ratios were dried directly from saturated surface dry state to 75%, SO%, 11%, and 0% relative humidity (rh). Fro...

prediction method of drying shrinkage crack in reinforced concrete walls

because thin plate reinforced concrete members such as walls and slabs are greatly influenced by the drying shrinkage, cracks can occur in these members due to the restraint of the volume change caused by drying shrinkage. therefore, the control of cracking due to drying shrinkage is very important in building construction that the thin plate members are frequently used. however, few researches...

An experimental investigation on drying kinetics of calcium carbonate

Calcium carbonate is a versatile mineral with diverse industrial applications. Drying is a necessary processing step in preparation of calcium carbonate product. Deep knowledge of drying kinetics is required in order to design an appropriate dryer. The main aim of the present study was to investigate the drying kinetics of calcium carbonate, experimentally. Thirteen empirical correlations with ...
