Creep And Shrinkage
Follow
0
Summary
Creep and shrinkage are
Time-dependent deformations
in concrete that occur under sustained load and environmental conditions, impacting the
Structural Integrity
and durability of
Concrete structures
. While creep refers to the
Gradual increase in strain
under
Constant stress
, shrinkage is the
Reduction in volume
due to
Moisture Loss
, both of which must be considered in the design and analysis of
Concrete structures
to prevent
Long-term serviceability issues
.
