Abstract

The concrete shrinkage test results obtained in five research programs are compared with the results obtained through analysis according to two models (Eurocode 2 and B3). The comparisons show that the values obtained according to models greatly deviate from those obtained by testing. A coefficient is proposed as a means to increase accuracy of the EC 2 model, so that it can be used to anticipate shrinkage of the high-strength concrete. The model for anticipating the concrete creep coefficient is also analyzed.

Keywords
