Research on the Restraint Expansive Stress of MgO Reinforced Concrete at the Early Age

To solve the problem of early-age concrete shrinkage under constraint, 0%, 2%, 3%MgO expansion agent are mixed in the concrete. Results indicate that MgO expansion agent can ensure the expansion strain of the concrete and produce the self-stress under constraint which is up to 1.8Mpa~2.2Mpa.
