Abstract

With the development of construction technology, self-compacting concrete hasstarted to be widely used in the construction of buildings. The specific properties of selfcompacting concrete have made it particularly useful for concreting the structuralelements of high-rise buildings. The strains characteristics of concrete are important toknow both in the initial stage of concreting and in the long process, in order to takemeasures to minimize their impact on cracking and reduction of structure elements.In this regard we have conducted an experiment to investigate shrinkage strains andcreep strains in reinforced concrete beams as well as the determination of the creepcoefficient. Given that the shrinkage and creep strains are together, it is necessary toseparate the creep strains from the shrinkage strains to determine the creep coefficient.For the realization of this separation, we have prepared the same samples which havebeen used for the determination of shrinkage strains and samples which have beeninserted into the mechanisms for the realization of adequate force for thedetermination of the creep strains.
