Determining the Creep and Shrinkage Effect on Long-term Deflection of Concrete Structures
Posted on in Concrete Design
Concrete structures experience creep and shrinkage strains, which increase over time. Further more the concrete material may experience cracking, leading to reduction in stiffness. All these factors will affect the in-service deflection behaviour, but how can we take it into consideration in our design?
Concrete Slab Long-term Deflection Calculation using Finite Element Method
Posted on in MasterFrame
Long-term deflection in slabs is the deflection or deformation that occurs over time due to creep, shrinkage and concrete cracking.
