ACI SP-135:1992 PDF Download

ACI SP-135:1992 is a special publication that focuses on the topic of creep and shrinkage of concrete and the effects of materials and the environment on these properties. The publication consists of six papers that cover various aspects related to prediction models, the influence of admixtures and cement replacement materials, the relationship between creep and thermal stresses, the effects of fly ash and silica fume, the characteristics of carbon fiber reinforced composites, and the behavior of cement-phosphogypsum mixtures.

The first paper, authored by H.S. Muller, presents new prediction models for creep and shrinkage of concrete. The second paper, written by J.J. Brooks and A. Neville, discusses the effects of admixtures and cement replacement materials on the creep and shrinkage behavior of concrete. The third paper, by S.K. Hirata, D.M. Smith, and M.I. Hammons, explores the interaction between thermal stress and concrete creep.

The fourth paper focuses on the effect of low temperature on the creep behavior of high strength concrete, and is authored by H.M. Marzouk. The fifth paper, by P. Soroushian, M. Nagi, and E. Mustata, investigates the drying shrinkage characteristics of carbon fiber reinforced cement composites. Lastly, the sixth paper, by C.X. Ling, K.T. Lin, and W.F. Chang, examines the shrinkage behavior of statically compacted cement-phosphogypsum mixtures.
