A novel two-dimensional method to measure surface shrinkage in cementitious materials / T. C. Chen in Cement and concrete research, Vol. 40 N° 5 (Mai 2010) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Cement and concrete research > Vol. 40 N° 5 (Mai 2010) . - pp. 687–698 Titre : A novel two-dimensional method to measure surface shrinkage in cementitious materials Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : T. C. Chen, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : pp. 687–698 Note générale : Bibliogr. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Shrinkage;  Diffraction  grating;  Moire  interferometry;  Moisture  diffusion Résumé : A novel experimental technique, Cure Reference Method (CRM), was developed for the measurement of surface shrinkage in cementitious materials. The technique combines the replication of diffraction grating on a specimen during the curing process and the use of high-sensitivity moiré interferometry. Once demolded, the specimen was stored in an environmental chamber in order to establish specific curing conditions. Measurements were conducted on a daily basis for the duration of 7 days by recording a set of the consecutive phase shifted fringe patterns using the Portable Engineering Moiré interferometer II (PEMI II). An automated fringe analysis system was developed and used to obtain displacement and strain information in two dimenzsions. Surface shrinkage behavior in both cement paste and mortar specimens was investigated by the use of the technique under controlled temperature and humidity conditions. Furthermore, an experimental control was developed in an effort to remove the effects of drying shrinkage on cementitious specimens at early ages. This was done in an effort to explore the relative contribution of autogenous shrinkage to the overall shrinkage in cementitious materials.
