Professor Bazant's concerns regarding the estimation of unrestrained drying shrinkage values for cement paste must be resolved if such values are to be used in the prediction of concrete shrinkage. We are in full agreement with regard to his statements about concrete. The presence of rigid, nonshrin

The primary purpose of the investigation conducted by the authors was to provide designers with some basis to estimate dynamic creep from static creep information. The authors do not disagree with the discussors' definitions of cyclic creep and fatigue as portrayed in their Ref. I. From the work co

I appreciate the paper and results, but cannot agree with the authors that the results are basically different than those which I obtained many years ago and which were published in references 5,6, and 7. I have found that the values of strain in the central part of a compressed specimen were a bit
