Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The loss of prestress resulting from creep and shrinkage in concrete was investigated for concrete specime * ns made with Type I portland cement and with Type III portland cement.Forty-nine sets of specimens were fabricated and tested; each set consisted of a prestressed specimen and an otherwise identical companion specimen without reinforcement. The length changes with time were observed at intervals up to an age of 500 days.These observations were made for concretes subjected to different levels of prestress, and for concretes prestressed at different ages.Length changes in nonreinforced companion specimens were also obtained. Thus this study is concerned with elastic deformation occurring at time of stress transfer, shrinkage or swelling, and creep.(Author).

Download or read book Creep and Drying Shrinkage of Lightweight and Normal weight Concretes written by Thomas W. Reichard and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A description is given of a series of tests and test results from an investigation of the mechanical properties of structural-grade lightweight and normal-weight concretes. The major part of the work was planned to obtain comparative values of compressive creep, drying shrinkage, strengths, and moduli of elasticity for concretes made with 24 lightweight and 5 natural, normal-weight aggregates and having the same nominal strength at the time the specimens were placed under load. Data are presented from a total of 76 different concretes which show that there is a wide range in values of the mechanical properties of concretes of the same nominal compressive strength. It is shown that relatively high values of creep and drying shrinkage are not always associated with lightweight concretes and that, in fact, some lightweight concretes have practically the same mechanical properties as some normal-weight concretes. In addition to environmental conditions, the two major factors affecting the creep of concrete appear to be the ratio of the applied stress to the strength at the time of loading, and the aggregate used. Curing conditions, type of cement, mix proportions, and several other variables appear to affect the creep chiefly insofar as they affect the stress-strength ratio. It was observed that the creep at the age of two years can be estimated from the 90-day results with reasonable accuracy. (Author).

Download or read book The Effect of Temperature on Creep of Concrete written by H. G. Geymayer and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of the literature on the effect of elevated temperatures on the time-dependent volume change due to load (creep) of concrete reveals incomplete and conflicting evidence. Some workers have found a 'creep maximum' at a particular temperature range; others have not encountered this phenomenon. Among those who have found it, there is lack of agreement as to what the range is. All available data have been collected, reduced to comparable form, and analyzed. The analysis has been reviewed in the light of the several theories of the mechanism of concrete creep. It is concluded that the new results on temperature effects on creep do not resolve the conflicts among the various creep theories, but they tend to support the seepage theory more than any other. Many factors affecting creep are found to be influential at elevated temperatures in analogous fashion to their influence at room temperature. These factors include time under load, applied stress, maturity of concrete, and moisture content of concrete. The effect of temperature, at least up to 50 C, is to increase creep by a factor of two or three at 50 C. (Author).

Download or read book Concrete and Masonry Movements written by Jeffrey Brooks and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2014-08-23 with total page 613 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widely used in the construction of bridges, dams and pavements, concrete and masonry are two of the world’s most utilized construction materials. However, many engineers lack a proper understanding of the methods for predicting and mitigating their movements within a structure. Concrete and Masonry Movements provides practical methods for predicting and preventing movement in concrete and masonry, saving time and money in retrofitting and repair cost. With this book in hand, engineers will discover new prediction models for masonry such as: irreversible moisture expansion of clay bricks, elasticity, creep and shrinkage. In addition, the book provides up-to-date information on the codes of practice. Provides mathematical modelling tools for predicting movement in masonry Up-to-date knowledge of codes of practice methods Clearly explains the factors influencing all types of concrete and masonry movement Fully worked out examples and set problems are included at the end of each chapter

This book contains the full papers of 514 contributions presented at IALCCE 2023, including the Fazlur R. Khan Plenary Lecture, nine Keynote Lectures, and 504 technical papers from 45 countries. The papers cover recent advances and cutting-edge research in the field of life-cycle civil engineering, including emerging concepts and innovative applications related to life-cycle design, assessment, inspection, monitoring, repair, maintenance, rehabilitation, and management of structures and infrastructure systems under uncertainty. Major topics covered include life-cycle safety, reliability, risk, resilience and sustainability, life-cycle damaging processes, life-cycle design and assessment, life-cycle inspection and monitoring, life-cycle maintenance and management, life-cycle performance of special structures, life-cycle cost of structures and infrastructure systems, and life-cycle-oriented computational tools, among others. This Open Access Book provides both an up-to-date overview of the field of life-cycle civil engineering and significant contributions to the process of making more rational decisions to mitigate the life-cycle risk and improve the life-cycle reliability, resilience, and sustainability of structures and infrastructure systems exposed to multiple natural and human-made hazards in a changing climate. It will serve as a valuable reference to all concerned with life-cycle of civil engineering systems, including students, researchers, practicioners, consultants, contractors, decision makers, and representatives of managing bodies and public authorities from all branches of civil engineering.
