- Synopsis
- This paper deals with development of controlling technology for shrinkage cracking, which consists of prediction of drying shrinkage strain of concrete from short-term test, crack reducing concrete, and evaluating shrinkage cracking risk. This controlling technology was applied to construction process, and its validity was demonstrated via construction results.
