Conclusions
Autogenous shrinkage of concrete is strongly dependent on type of cement. The coefficient in JSCE model, which describes the influence of cement type, has been determined on the basis of mineral composition of cement.Development of autogenous shrinkage with time is dependent on w/c. The coefficients a and b in JSCE model, which describe the development of autogenous shrinkage, have been proposed as functions of w/c.Autogenous shrinkage calculated form the proposed model was compared with the observed values, and it is proved that the model has adequate accuracy for practical purposes.
