Abstract
Shrinkage cracking is commonly observed in concrete flat structures such as highway pavements,
slabs, and bridge decks. Crack spacing due to shrinkage has received considerable attention for many
years [1-3]. However, some aspects concerning the mechanism of crack spacing still remain un-clear.
Though it is well known that the interval of the cracks generally falls with a range, no satisfactory
explanation has been put forward as to why the minimum spacing exists.
Citations:
Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
