FUAQ
Can the use of Expansive Cement produce “Shrinkless” Concrete?
Strictly speaking: NO
Use of expansive cement can not produce “shrinkless” concrete, as shrinkage takes place after the moist curing has ceased. But the magnitude of expansion can be adjusted so that the expansion and the subsequent shrinkage are numerically equal.
