Volumetric strain behaviour and self-healing of large scale engineered cementitious composite and normal concrete panels under natural conditions

The application of engineered cementitious composite (ECC) in liquid containing structures (LCS) may help to improve the cracking performance of these structures. This study investigates the hydration temperature, shrinkage, cracking and self-healing behaviors of 10 m length ECC and normal concrete (NC) panels under real field conditions of volumetric strains. The restrained panels of NC and ECCs, with different compositions of fly ash (ECC/FF)...
