Shrinkage. Definition: decrease in either length or volume of a material resulting from changes in moisture content or chemical changes.- ACI Concrete Terminology. Drying shrinkage is the contraction in the concrete caused by moisture loss from drying concrete. Shrinkage-compensating concrete is used to minimize cracking and structural movement caused by drying shrinkage in concrete. The amount of drying shrinkage that occurs in concrete structures depends on the constituent materials, mixture proportions, curing, drying environment, and restraint.
Vinyl concrete patching cements eliminate the need for undercutting and for prewetting the surface, and they can be ''feathered out'' in thin layers (as thin as one-eighth of an inch in many cases) without flaking or cracking away later on. They also form a much stronger bond than regular cement on most surfaces.
