State-of-the-Art Report on Temperature-Induced Deflections of Reinforced Concrete Members
Also Known As:
The ACI 435.7R-85 (R1997) standard focuses on the calculation of deflections in reinforced concrete beams due to temperature changes. The report provides a comprehensive overview of the various methods available for determining these deflections.
The standard aims to summarize the state-of-the-art techniques and methodologies in this field, providing guidance to engineers, designers, and practitioners in the construction industry. By understanding the factors that contribute to temperature-induced deflections, professionals can make informed decisions during the design and construction of reinforced concrete members.
The report delves into the complexities associated with temperature changes and their effects on concrete structures. It explores different approaches to calculating deflections, considering factors such as material properties, reinforcement detailing, and environmental conditions. The goal is to provide engineers with reliable methods for predicting deflections accurately and efficiently.
