dc.description.abstractThe high strength and durability of high-performance concrete (HPC) may be significantly reduced by shrinkage cracking. The use of reactive magnesium oxide (MgO) can reduce shrinkage of cement-based materials due to its expansive properties. This study intends to analyse the validity of MgO as shrinkage-reducing agent in recycled aggregate HPC. To do so, ten HPC mixes with 0%, 25%, and 100% of both early-age (7-days air curing) and matured (6-month air curing) RA were produced. In half of the mixes, 10% ordinary Portland cement was replaced with MgO. The use of MgO slightly worsened the mechanical behaviour of HPC, especially when combined with large amounts of RA. On the other hand, the expansion of MgO fully offset the autogenous shrinkage of HPC and reduced total shrinkage by around 20-40%. Water storage of RA, and its deferred release over time, produced a more efficient hydration of MgO, which in turn led to a further reduction of autogenous shrinkage. However, the increase of drying shrinkage caused by RA was greater than this decrease of autogenous shrinkage due to MgO, so the higher the RA content of HPC the lower the total shrinkage reduction when adding MgO. Thus, the decrease of total shrinkage caused by MgO was compensated by the shrinkage increase because of RA when adding amounts above 35% early-age RA and 42% matured RA. Therefore, despite the suitability of MgO as shrinkage-reducing agent in recycled aggregate HPC, its effectiveness was reduced with increasing amounts of RA.pt_PT
