Abstract
Moisture flow through hydrating cement-based materials under early-age drying and shrinkage conditions is studied. The mechanism of drying of cementitious materials as a porous media is described. A dual-stage methodology for modeling the drying is presented based on surface moisture transfer and internal moisture transport characteristics. The proposed model for the internal moisture transfer simulates initial constant drying rate period (stage...
