Li, Z. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Provis, John L. (author), Cizer, Özlem (author), Ye, G. (author)This paper provides a critical review on autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS). It is reported that AAS paste, mortar, and concrete generally show larger autogenous shrinkage than Portland cement (PC) counterparts. Self-desiccation is the main driving force of the autogenous shrinkage of hardened AAS, but other mechanisms also...review 2023

Li, Z. (author), Delsaute, Brice (author), Lu, Tianshi (author), Kostiuchenko, A. (author), Staquet, Stéphanie (author), Ye, G. (author)This study aims to compare the developments of mechanical properties and autogenous shrinkage related properties of alkali-activated materials-based concrete (AC) and ordinary Portland cement-based concrete (OC) against curing age and degree of reaction. Temperature Stress Testing Machines are utilized to monitor the evolution of the internal...journal article 2021
