This thesis contemplates the design of a range of low-shrinkage concretes, using cements with the addition of pozzolans, polypropylene fibers and metallic fibers to mitigate cracking, improving the durability of buildings. In order to propose the designs, it was investigated which of the contractions have the greatest incidence in the cracking of the concrete, being the plastic contraction and the drying contraction the most important. Likewise, the variables that cause contraction and subsequent cracking were studied, stating that they are produced by environmental factors, concrete components and poor construction practices. In the first stage, the characterization of the aggregates (fine and coarse) was carried out, performing tests such as granulometry, absorption, specific weight, moisture content and% passing through of the # 200 mesh. In the second stage, tests were carried out on fresh concrete, the most important being the plastic shrinkage simulation test, for which we used ASTM C1579. To carry out this test, the panels that simulate restrictions were manufactured and a chamber was built in which the air speed, temperature and relative humidity were controlled. In the third stage, tests were carried out on hardened concrete, the most important being the drying shrinkage test, for which we used ASTM C490. For this, rectangular test tubes were made to measure the variation of the change in length during 31 days. Finally, a cost-benefit analysis will be carried out to demonstrate the viability of the proposal.
