Creep influence on concrete slabs, pre-stressed in both directions
G. Sossou
Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana
ABSTRACT: This report relates to pre-stressed concrete slabs, subjected to static long-term service loads.
For structural predictions, the well-known finite elements and multi-scale/multi-grid methods have been used
to estimate (a) transient bi-directional forces and strains due to the concrete creep and shrinkage, (b) the resulting
bi-directional stress redistribution, as well as (c) bi-directional displacement variations and d) bi-directional pre-
stressing ...
