Influence of chemical and mineral admixtures on shrinkage and creep of prepacked aggregate concrete

Prepacked aggregate concrete is a special kind of concrete which is produced by first placing the coarse aggregates inside the molds followed by injection of grout from underneath using pump or gravity method. The grout consists of sand, cement and water plus chemical and mineral admixtures. Two sep...
