Abstract

To investigate the influence of temperature and humidity variations on creep in high-performance concrete beams, beam tests were conducted in both natural and laboratory settings. The findings indicate that the variations in creep primarily stem from temperature changes, whereas humidity changes have little influence on fluctuations in both basic creep and total creep. The influence of humidity on creep is more strongly reflected in the magnitude of creep. Functions describing the influence of temperature and humidity on the creep behavior of high-performance concrete (HPC) subjected to fluctuating conditions are proposed. The findings were employed to examine creep deformation in engineering applications across four places. This study complements the correction method for the creep of members under fluctuating temperature and humidity. This research application can provide a basis for the calculation of the long-term deformation of HPC structures in natural environments.
