Research Abstract |
For technological development of shrinkage cracking suppression in cold climates, we have elucidated the frost damage degradation mechanisms and drying shrinkage reduction of shrinkage reducing agent, and developed a new shrinkage reducing agent (SRA) with improved freeze-thaw resistance. In addition, our shrinkage reducing agents had been optimized the molecular structure of shrinkage reducing agent according to an integrated model for the freezing and thawing action deterioration and drying shrinkage. In laboratory we examined the properties of fresh and hardened concrete such as workability, setting, mechanical properties, drying shrinkage, carbonation, rebar corrosion and the freeze-thaw resistance, and confirmed that the properties of SRA concrete were equivalent to those of concrete without SRA. Finally, we had also manufactured SRA concrete at ready-mixed concrete plant and fabricated in the actual structures, and confirmed that the performance of SRA concretes satisfied the target requirements.
