Abstract

Concrete shrinkage is one of the main causes of cracks occurred in reinforced concrete structures in the hot tropical environment. In this study, a series of test specimens was made of plain concrete and steel fiber reinforced concrete of strength grade C45 and with various contents of Dramix fibers ranging from 25 to 100 kg/m3. The shrinkage measurements were carried out on these specimens for more than 120 days. The experimental results show the total shrinkage of concretes tested and the effect of steel fiber content on the shrinkage.
