Causes of cracks
2
Cracking will occur whenever the tensile strain to which concrete is subjected exceeds the tensile strain capacity of the concrete. The tensile strain capacity of concrete varies with age and with rate of application of strain.

Drying shrinkage
10
The moisture content of hardened concrete has a potentially significant influence on the volume that it occupies, with an increase in the level of moisture producing an increase in volume.
Moisture content is controlled by the relative humidity of the surrounding environment
![Page 11: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Drying shrinkage
The reason of drying shinkage is associated with; the development of capillary pressure the drying of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH)
gel, a reaction product formed during the setting and hardening of cement.
![Page 12: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Drying shrinkage
In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in a capillary and only one is capable of wetting the surface. This attractive capillary pressure (pc) is described by the Young–Laplace equation.
As the relative humidity in concrete drops (i.e. as it dries), water in progressively smaller pores will evaporate, causing the value of r in the equation to decrease. This increases the capillary pressure and causes shrinkage.
Development of capillary pressure

Drying shrinkage
The main reaction product of Portland cement is CSH gel, which typically comprises 50% to 60% by volume of a mature Portland cement (PC) paste.
Drying of CSH gel
The gel is an aggregation of colloidal particles (particles having at least one dimension between 1 nm and 10 μm). Each gel particle is composed of layers of calcium silicate sheets, which are distorted and arranged on top of each other in a disordered manner. The nature of this configuration means that there is much space between the layers, which can be occupied by ‘interlayer’ water.
The absorption of this “interlayer water” by the gel leads to swelling, and evaporation of water leads to shrinkage.

Effects of aggregates on drying shrinkage
14
Most aggregate materials shrink to a lesser extent relative to cement paste, and although the cement fraction comprises a much smaller volume fraction than the aggregate, it normally has the largest influence on shrinkage.
The higher modulus of elasticity of most aggregate relative to cement paste has a restraining effect that limits shrinkage.
![Page 15: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
Effects of aggregates on drying shrinkage There is usually a good correlation between the water absorption capacity of aggregates and the magnitude of drying shrinkage observed in concrete containing it
The reason for the correlation between water absorption and shrinkage is the result of the strong relationship between the porosity of aggregate and its stiffness.
![Page 16: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Effects of w/c ratio on drying shrinkage
As the w/c ratio reduces, the modulus of elasticity of the hardened cement paste increases, presenting a greater resistance to shrinkage
![Page 17: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Effects of different mineral admixtures on drying shrinkage
Shrinkage curves obtained from mortars containing a combination of Portland cement and various size fractions of FA is shown below. In all cases, FA has the effect of reducing shrinkage, with the finer fractions producing the least amount of length change. The cause of this effect is that the finer FA fractions permit greater reductions in water content to achieve a given consistence, which means that the mortars with finer ash fractions have lower W/C ratios. However, there may be other mechanisms effective because even the coarsest ash, which is coarser than the PC and requires a higher W/C ratio, produces lower shrinkage than the control mortar.

Silica fume typically has the effect of very slightly increasing shrinkage at early ages. Later, as ultimate shrinkage is approached, shrinkage is lower at higher silica fume levels.

What is the form of crack formation in plain and reinforced concrete sections due to drying shrinkage?
25
Restraint is important!
The crack spacing can be reduced by reducing the bar diameter, improving the bond, increasing the quantity of steel. Reducing the depth of the cover will also reduce the spacing.
![Page 26: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Strain development due to drying (Eurocode 2 approach)
26
The tensile strength of concrete is substantially less than its compressive strength, usually between 5% and 15%. It develops with time in a similar manner with compressive strength, as shown in Figure 2.18.
If the concrete element is restraint, the tensile stress due to shrinkage may exceed the tensile strength capacity of concrete. If this happens concrete cracks!

29
Autogenous shrinkage
As Portland cement undergoes hydration reactions, free water will be converted to chemically combined or chemisorbed water on hydrate surfaces. This loss of free water can also lead to shrinkage. This is called autogenous shrinkage.
This means that, even if evaporation from concrete is entirely prevented, there will be a considerable reduction in the volume of water present, and shrinkage will occur via the same mechanisms as for drying shrinkage.
![Page 30: DURABILITY of CONCRETE STRUCTURES...Drying shrinkage In a concrete pore, the two fluids are water and air. A pressure difference develops when two immiscible fluids are present in](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081621/612690c212ce94748f167f38/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Reducing the problem of cracking resulting from shrinkage
Inclusion of movement joints Using reinforcement for crack control Using steel fibres or macrosynthetic fibres Reducing the cement content The minimum cement content which is required for strength and durability requirements.
Reducing the W/C ratio Since the water content of the concrete will be fixed to provide the required consistence to the fresh concrete mix, a reduction in the W/C ratio will lead to an increase in the cement content. For this reason, the use of water-reducing admixtures or superplasticisers is likely to be necessary to allow a reduction in the water content. NOTE: Remember that reduction of the W/C ratio to very low levels, while reducing drying shrinkage significantly, may lead to higher levels of autogenous shrinkage.
Selection of aggregate with a high stiffness Using shrinkage-reducing admixtures can be used to modify
the surface tension of the pore water.

I
Subdivision : Thin Slaps (and walls)
Causes: Insufficient joints – Excess shrinkage, inefficient curing
Remedy : Reduce water content, improve curing

SPALLING (crazing)
J
Subdivision : Against formwork – “fair-faced” concrete
Causes: Impermeable formwork- Rich mixes, poor curing
Remedy : Improve curing & Finishing
