SHRINKAGE, TENSILE CREEP AND CRACKING TENDENCY OF CONCRETES

Drying shrinkage and tensile creep of concretes made with dimensionally stable and unstable aggregates are measured. These deformations are used to calculate theoretical shrinkage stresses in reinforced concretes. Measured and calculated strains for reinforced concrete specimens are compared. (A) /TRRL/
