Have any of you ever used shrinkage conpensating concrete? What are some of the advantages and disadvantage of using SCC? I would like to ask the same questions for post-tensioning slab on grade.

As far as joint spacing in slab on grade, it would depends on the shrinkage of the concrete, but what joint spacing do you normally use, i.e. limiting to column spacing?
