[EN] The aim of this experimental work was to study shrinkage evolution with age in self-compacting concretes (SCC) in which part of the fine aggregate was replaced by granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) as sand. Seven types of SCC were made with a w/c ratio of 0.55 and different slag contents. The results show that replacing sand by GBFS gives rise to mixes with higher pore volume but with slightly finer porous structure (smaller median pore and threshold diameters). At early ages slag SCCs have similar compressive strength to that of the reference concrete, although in the long term their strength increases as a result of slag reactivity. We also observed that the higher the slag content, the higher were both autogenous and drying shrinkage and consequently also total shrinkage. In comparison with the reference concrete, the increase in total shrinkage was found to be of the order of 4% and 44% when 10% and 60%, respectively, of the sand was replaced by slag.
