Abstract: Based on research results and engineering experiences, several approaches are proposed to improve the cracking resistance of hydraulic concrete, including the use of low heat expansive anti-crack cement,and the addition of light calcined magnesia. Besides, an index, along with the evaluation equation, is proposed to evaluate the cracking resistance of concrete.
