| Résumé : | The aim of this study is the determination of time-zero, a reference time from which the autogenous deformation is expressed, and the effect of this choice on the evolution of autogeneous deformation of concretes with different slag proportions (0 and 71%). The determination of time-zero is based on the setting evolution measured by means of several experimental methods (mechanical, electrical and ultrasonic). Autogenous deformation is also measured with a new shrinkage testing set-up developed at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. Following the experimental results it appears that a time-zero equal to the final setting is the most adequate choice for classic concretes. For slag cement concretes, characterized by an expansion of their cement matrix at early age, time-zero should be taken equal to the time of the expansion peak. |
