AB  - Crack formation in cementitious materials may start when the material is still in its plastic stage. Water loss in this very early age causes a curved water surface between the solid particles at open boundary faces. The resulting capillary pressure leads to the so-called plastic or capillary shrinkage. At a cer- tain material specific pressure, air penetrates locally into the pore system and cracks may originate from these locations. If air entry is prevented; i.e., if the absolute capillary pressure value is kept below a critical limit, this type of crack initiation does not occur. Results of the capillary pressure…
