Performance of passive methods in plastic shrinkage cracking mitigation
Cement and Concrete Composites, 2018Abstract The occurrence of plastic shrinkage cracking in fresh concrete may significantly compromise its service life. Therefore, it is essential to reduce the crack width with appropriate, efficient and effective methods. This study is dedicated to comparing the ability of passive mitigation methods including: Shrinkage Reducing Admixtures (SRA ...

Influence of Different Fibers on Plastic Shrinkage Cracking of Concrete
ACI Materials Journal, 2005Plastic shrinkage cracks in concrete become critical weak points for aggressive substances to penetrate into the internal portion of concrete leading to the acceleration of concrete deterioration. Thus, controlling plastic shrinkage cracking (which usually occurs in the first few hours after the concrete is placed) is vital for developing more durable ...

Evaluation of Plastic Shrinkage Cracking of Self-Consolidating Concrete
ACI Materials Journal, 2006Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a fluid concrete, cast without vibration, that has a self-leveling ability that makes it appropriate for flat structures such as slabs or industrial floors. This article reports on a study that evaluated plastic shrinkage cracking of SCC. The authors compared five SCC mixtures with compressive strengths ranging from

Control of Plastic Shrinkage Cracking with Specialty Cellulose Fibers
ACI Materials Journal, 1998Specialty cellulose fibers processed for the reinforcement of concrete offer relatively high levels of elastic modulus and bond strength. The hydrophilic surfaces of cellulose fibers facilitate their dispersion and bonding in concrete. Cellulose fibers have small effective diameters that are comparable to the cement particle size, and thus promote ...
