Abstrakt: n order to improve the volume stability of high performance concrete, the effects of deformation behavior of high performance concrete containing CaO-based expansive agent were investigated. Concrete samples prepared without or with CaO-based expansive agent were compared through expansion under water curing at 20oC, drying shrinkage and autogenous shrinkage measurements. According to the experimental and analytical results, the new type expansive agent can control volume stability for high performance concrete. The addition of 10% CaO-based expansive agent not only built effective expansion in high performance concrete whatever under saturated condition or under sealed condition, but also substantially reduced its drying shrinkage.
