The Creep Impact on the Performance of Super-Long Reinforced Concrete Structures

Abstract

In order to study the deformation of super-long structures under the influence of creep , take fully advantage of orthogonal design to make nine series reinforced concrete beams of shrinkage-compensating to deeply analyze the function performanced by creep of the reinforced concrete structure and obtain that the time-deflection curves of volume deformation and creep deformation of shrinkage-compensating reinforced concrete beams. The results show that the creep of beams develops rapidly early and the slow development of the late. The greater the expansion stress is in the early, the greater the shrinkage strain in the late, the greater the deformation of volume. So, the appropriate mixing ratio of expansive agent is given by the experiment. It provides a scientific basis for seamless design of super-long structures.
