Modelling desiccation shrinkage of large structures
Drying of cement-based materials induces drying shrinkage, which may cause prestress loss or/and cracking if strains are (self or externally) restrained.

Autogenous and drying shrinkage properties of precast recycled aggregate concrete
Crushing prefabricated rejects into recycled aggregates (PRAs) and recasting them forms precast recycled aggregate concrete (PRAC), which offers superior mechanical properties, durability, and cost and environmental benefits compared to conventional RAC.

Reducing drying shrinkage of concrete by treatment of aggregate [PDF]
Drying shrinkage of concrete has been found to cause cracking, water leakage and other serviceability problems and is thus an important research topic. In early studies, it has been found that the shrinkage of concrete varies with the rock aggregate used.
