The DIN EN 12390-16 standard provides guidelines for measuring the total shrinkage of concrete specimens under drying conditions. The standard acknowledges that there may be shrinkage or length changes occurring before 24 hours of age, which could have significant consequences if there are restraints. These changes might require measurement using a separate procedure not covered in this specific document.
The standard also includes information on a simplified procedure for determining autogenous shrinkage in Annex A. This test method is suitable for specimens that have a declared value of the coarsest fraction of aggregates (Dmax) actually used in the concrete, with a maximum value of 32 mm.
