Figure 4.4b. Comparison between measured shrinkage of 10,000 psi HPLC and estimated from<br />

models <strong>for</strong> normal and high strength concrete.<br />

Based on the modified relationships, the ultimate shrinkage would be 795 and 625 µε <strong>for</strong> 8,000-<br />

psi and 10,000-psi HPLC, respectively. In addition, the ultimate creep coefficient would be<br />

1.925 and 1.431 <strong>for</strong> 8,000-psi and 10,000-psi HPLC, respectively.<br />

Figure 4.4 shows the various models <strong>for</strong> predicting shrinkage, while Figures 4.5 and 4.6<br />

show the creep models <strong>for</strong> normal strength concrete and <strong>for</strong> high strength concrete, respectively.<br />

The models are presented in Appendix B.<br />
