Effect of Early Age-Curing Methods on Drying Shrinkage of Alkali-Activated Slag Concrete. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2019 Drying shrinkage of alkali-activated slag concrete (AASC) is significantly greater than that of concrete made with ordinary Portland cement (OPC). It limits the large-scale application of AASC in field engineering.
