Popis: Concrete shrinkage and creep under variable hydric conditions are important factors for the safety and durability of concrete especially in nuclear reactor or nuclear waste storage background. A large (and long – more than 900 days) experimental campaign, conducted on two different concretes, has therefore been designed to study the strains of non loaded and loaded concretes submitted to drying and liquid water imbibition cycles. For the purposes of comparison, concrete strains and mass variations during drying only (50% RH) and/or following cycles of drying/rewetting were also recorded. This allowed the identification of desiccation shrinkage, basic creep and drying creep at 10 MPa of axial stress. Important results were found and have shown that the final mass and strain are not deeply modified by the introduction of a rewetting phase either for a loaded or a non loaded material.
