(a) The correlation between drying shrinkage strain and relative weight loss present in AAS and OPC systems; (b) the time-dependent change of drying shrinkage rate in AAS and OPC systems; (c) the time-dependent change of moisture loss rate based on data from author’s previous publication [14]; the dashed lines in (b) and (c) indicate the time when drying was initiated, that is, 7 days.
