In this study, it is willing to present that fundamental data for proposing quantitatively shrinkage cracking evaluation method such as plat-ring type restrained test method. It is possible to decide that specimen diameter is s 150mm with evaluating restrained shrinkage crack properties of concrete according to change of ring diameter in specimen. Also, effectiveness of test method according to mixing of PVA fiber is evaluated as part of a repeatability verification experiment of plat-ring type restrained test method using ring which diameter is 150mm. As a result, it is possible to measure the crack due to the plastic shrinkage which was occurred within 48hours at early age with plat-ring type restrained test method. Hereafter, it is considered that the study concerning environmental condition and mixing factor in plat-ring type restrained test method is need.

In this study, it is willing to present that fundamental data for proposing quantitatively shrinkage cracking evaluation method such as plat-ring type restrained test method. To examine suitable size of specimen of plat-ring type restrained test method, Evaluated concrete about restrained shrinkage crack properties of numerical analysis of 3D solid element using the MIDAS program, drying shrinkage deformation, restrained shrinkage stress, crack area and crack point with inside ring diameter of specimen in 100mm, 150mm, 200mm and high of Specimen in 30mm, 50mm after curing in condition of constant temperature and usual habit of temperature 20${\pm}$3$^{\circ}$C, humidity 60${\pm}$5%. As a result, it was available about suitable estimation with inside ring diameter of specimen in more than 150mm and high of Specimen in 50mm. Hereafter, it is considered that the study concerning environmental condition and mixing factor in plat-ring type restrained test method is need.

In Concrete, shrinkages occur like plastic shrinkage and drying shrinkage in the early age because of evaporation and transfer of moisture. Within the country, the crack test standardized by KS is used to test the drying shrinkage of the concrete by using the restricted drying shrinkage of Dumbbell type mold, but this test is for the cracking-point and the restricted shrinkage stress. Thus it is difficult to valuate the crack quantitative test. In this study, it is intended to develop the Flat-ring type restrained test method for the shrinkage deformation movement of the concrete and to provide the quantitative data for evaluating the cracks in concrete. And it suggest the proper specimen diameter and quantitative test method about shrinkage crack properties on Flat-ring type restrained test method. And Verified the suitability.
