The effect of coarse aggregate size range on drying shrinkage strain of concrete for different age cured under ultra-low RH of 20% was shown in Fig. 6 (a). As can be seen from Fig. 6 (a), the drying shrinkage strains of concrete with different coarse aggregate size ranges within 56 days were not apparently different. After 56 days, with …

Aggregates are generally thought of as inert filler within a concrete mix. But a closer look reveals the major role and influence aggregate plays in the properties of both fresh and hardened concrete. Changes in gradation, maximum size, unit weight, and moisture content can all alter the character and performance of your concrete mix.

An increase in the maximum aggregate size or rounder shape of aggregates will lower the paste content and decrease drying shrinkage. An aggregate with a high modulus of elasticity will also lower drying shrinkage of concrete. As for cement composition, increased shrinkage may be exhibited by concretes made with low sulfate cements, …
