What is Creep, Shrinkage, and Temperature Effects in Concrete about?
Creep is the time-dependent increase in strain of hardened concrete under sustained stress. It occurs in three stages: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Factors affecting creep include age, stress level, density, cement content, water-cement ratio, humidity, and temperature. Creep causes damage to structures and redistributes loads. Shrinkage is the decrease in concrete volume over time, and also occurs in different stages. Both creep and shrinkage must be considered in the analysis and design of tall build
