Modeling the drying shrinkage of structural concretes
Shrinkage in hydraulic materials is a complex time-dependent process. For standard concretes, one of the most considerable parts of shrinkage is drying shrinkage. In fact, to predict deformations of concrete due to shrinkage, various predictive models have been developed; most of them use many numbers of factors that can affect shrinkage such as ...
