- A 100-foot long concrete bridge deck (w/c = 0.40) had a shrinkage of 0.28-inches at 15 days and 0.75-inches after one year. The shrinkage at one year was estimated to be 85% of the total shrinkage the bridge deck will see. Please calculate the percent shrinkage of the bridge deck at 15 days, 1 year and the total shrinkage percent. Do these values seem reasonable?
