This paper analyzed the mechanism of early autogenous shrinkage of concrete, and studied the influence of early autogenous shrinkage of high performance concrete-(HPC) admixed with different kinds of materials of bridge deck pavement. Four different concrete mixes were used: fiber, fiber plus expansive agent, fiber plus fly ash and fiber plus shrinkage-reducing agent. The result shows that the four different mixes can inhibit the autogenous shrinkage of HPC to a certain extent, the inhibitory effect of different mixes in the order of strong to weak is: fiber plus shrinkage-reducing agent, fiber plus fly ash, fiber plus expansive agent, and fiber itself. Furthermore, the inhibition mechanism of each mix was analyzed and a conclusion of mixture of fiber plus fly ash to be the best choice considered of economic and working performance is drawn as well.

The influence rules of the mineral admixtures containing fly ash, ground slag and silica fume on the early-age autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete have been discussed in this paper. According to the research results, fly ash mixture can substantially decrease the early-age autogenous shrinkage of high-performance concrete, while the silica fume will increase the autogenous shrinkage. Meanwhile the influence of ground slag on autogenous shrinkage is related to its fineness and admixture amount. Generally, it is believed that when the fineness of the fly ash is higher than 4000cm2/g, the autogenous shrinkage will increase with the increasing admixture amount. The double admixture or multi-admixture of fly ash or ground slag is better for reducing the early-age autogenous shrinkage of concrete than the single-admixture. The early-age autogenous shrinkage of concrete occurs in distinctive linear dependence with the three types of mineral admixtures.

Based on engineering practice, autogenous volume deformation and creep properties of C60 high performance concrete(C60 HPC) and C60 high strength concrete(C60 HSC) were evaluated in the study. The results showed that the cement partly-replaced with fly ash could significantly decrease the creep deformation, creep coefficient and creep degree. In comparison with C60 HSC, the creep coefficient and creep degree of C60 HPC were decreased 17.9%and15.8% in 28 days, 22.9% and 21.0% in 270 days. For C60 HPC and C60 HSC at the same age, autogenous volume deformation of C60 HPC is greater than that of C60 HSC, but they were both less than 80×10-6 , and the autogenous volume deformation was basically completed in 7 days.

High-performance concrete (HPC) as a promising construction material has been widely used in infrastructures and high-rise buildings etc. However, its pretty high autogenous shrinkage (AS) especially in its early age becomes one of the key problems endangering long-time durability of HPC structures. This paper carried out the early age AS research of large scaled HPC column specimens by embedded Fiber Bragg-Grating (FBG) strain sensor. Temperature compensation for FBG strain sensor by thermocouple was also attempted in this paper, and the results were reasonable and acceptable comparing with the result compensated by FBG temperature sensor. Reinforcement influence, size effect and temperature effect on HPC AS were also analyzed respectively in this paper.
