Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

This chapter delves into the intricate world of concrete shrinkage and cracking, focusing on the role of internal curing materials and fly ash in mitigating these issues in self-compacting concrete. The study meticulously examines the effects of super absorbent polymers (SAP) and lightweight expanded clay aggregates (LECA) on the restrained shrinkage properties of concrete with varying percentages of fly ash. Through a rigorous experimental methodology, the research determines the age at cracking under restrained conditions, providing a comprehensive analysis of the strain and stress rates in different concrete mixes. The findings reveal that the inclusion of fly ash and internal curing materials significantly reduces the potential for cracking, with SAP showing superior performance compared to LECA. The study concludes that the combination of fly ash and internal curing materials effectively delays the initiation of drying and cracking, thereby enhancing the durability and longevity of self-compacting concrete structures.
