The long-term performance of concrete, such as creep and shrinkage are important parameters in the precast/prestress industries as they are closely related with life cycle of the structures. For this reason, a study about the creep and shrinkage strain on the High-Performance Concrete (HPC) with a mix composition used in the prefabrication of prestressed bridge girders was performed. Furthermore, the hardened concrete tests, such as compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and carbonation were also performed. The creep strain was evaluated at the strength-to-stress ratio of 25% at the age of 28-days. Concretes specimens reach their respective target strength, with the lightweight aggregate specimens expected to reach 10,000-psi in 2 years. After one year of observation, the compressive strength of Densified Mixture Design Algortihm (DMDA) concretes still increase, but ACI terminate. The incorporation of silica fume to the specimens, not only increases their strength, but also reduces the increase rate of modulus of elasticity up to 52.74%. The modulus of elasticity test result shows a good agreement with the prediction developed by ACI, with the R-squared value of 28 and 56 days are 0.927 and 0.945, respectively. New equations to predict the elastic modulus were proposed for 28-day and 56-day concrete. It is applicable to wide range of concretes from normal to high-strength. The 95% confidence intervals were examined to enhance the accuracy of the equations. Autogenous shrinkage is found to be lower in lightweight aggregate concrete. The test results show that the incorporation of pozzolanic materials designed using DMDA has positive effects on the propagation of creep strain. The increase rate of carbonation depth is much quicker from 28 days to 56 days, but getting slower from 56 to 91 days. The prediction model developed by CEB-FIP, ACI 209, and EUROCODE 2 exhibit satisfactory result. For the shrinkage model, CEB-FIP model give the best prediction result with R-squared value of 0.934, meanwhile for the creep strain, CEB-FIP and EUROCODE exhibit similar result, 0.864 and 0.856, respectively.
