Abstract: Abstract Autogenous shrinkage based on different “time-zero” may result in underestimation/overestimation on the cracking potential of alkali-activated fly ash/slag (AAFS). This study reports an experimental investigation on the “time-zero” of AAFS pastes characterized by different… read more here.
