INFLUENCE OF CURING CONDITIONS ON HYDRAULIC SHRINKAGE AFTER SETTING /IN FRENCH/
RESULTS PRESENTED HERE RELATE TO LONG TERM (UP TO 13 YEARS) HYDRAULIC SHRINKAGE TESTS AFTER SETTING, EXPERIMENTS WERE CONDUCTED (1) ON 1/3 4 X 4 X 16 CM MORTAR SAMPLES, SUCCESSIVELY STORED IN THE AIR AND WATER, THE CHANGES IN MEDIUM OCCURRING AFTER 7 AND 28 DAYS, 1 AND 12 YEARS. THESE TESTS WERE CARRIED OUT ON CEMENT VARYING IN GYPSUM CONTENT, (2) ON EXPANSIVE CEMENT AND "NON-SHRINKAGE" CEMENT MORTAR SAMPLES (COMMERCIAL CEMENTS MANUFACTURED IN FRANCE IN 1955), (3) ON PURE PASTE SAMPLES, 1/3 MORTAR AND 0/20 MM CONCRETE WILL DIFFERENT TYPES OF CEMENT AND STORED IN THE AIR ONLY, (4) AND ON 1/3 MORTAR SAMPLES CONTAINING ALUMINA CEMENT VARYING IN FINENESS. RESULTS SHOWED THE IMPORTANCE OF THE TIME WHEN SAMPLES ARE TAKEN OUT OF THEIR MOLDS FOR THE EVALUATION OF HYDRAULIC SHRINKAGE AFTER SETTING. /LCPC(A)/RRL/
