Abstract

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative concrete that does not require vibration for placing and compacting. SCC, developed in Japan in the 1980s, provides a present-day and attractive challenge for many researchers, as the long list of papers on the topic corroborates. Nevertheless, the durability of SCC, especially medium-low strength SCC, provides the researcher with opportunities for study in depth. This paper deals with the shrinkage and creep of SCC: three SCC mixtures, with 30 MPa compressive strength, are studied. The main differences among the SCCs involve the type of the cement: one SCC with type I cement and two SCCs with blended cements. The shrinkage and creep of the three SCCs are studied and compared. Fresh properties and mechanical properties are also evaluated. The shrinkage strains and creep are calculated by means of ACI 209 and Eurocode 2 models. These models overestimate the shrinkage strains and undervalue the creep for the studied concretes.
