Abstract:
This recommendation is valid for structural applications
of concrete under service and accident conditions. this
document presents test parameters (material and
environmental) and test procedures for determining the
shrinkage in the direction of the central axis, of
reference length of cylindrical concrete specimens under
constant temperatures in the range of 20 deg
