Stress induced shrinkage of concrete in tension
The paper deals with shrinkage and creep experiments under tensile loading on three types of self-compacting concrete. The experiments have been conducted on specimens which were wrapped in foil in order to simulate the interior of a mass concrete structure. The superposition of creep and shrinkage turned out to be questionable. The results could not be explained without assuming a stress-induced shrinkage component which is the largest for low-strength concrete and the smallest for high-strength concrete.
