Prediction of Creep, Shrinkage, and Temperature Effects in Concrete Structures
Also Known As:
ACI 209R-92 (R2008) is a standard that provides methods for predicting the effects of creep, shrinkage, and temperature on concrete structures. It serves as a guide for designers, offering a comprehensive and concise approach to addressing the issue of volume changes in concrete.
The standard seeks to assist designers in accounting for the potential effects of creep, which is the time-dependent deformation of concrete under sustained loading, as well as shrinkage, which refers to the reduction in concrete volume due to drying or chemical reactions. It also addresses the impact of temperature changes on concrete structures.
By providing predictive methods, ACI 209R-92 (R2008) aims to help designers make informed decisions regarding the dimensions, reinforcement, and construction practices for concrete structures. This standard is a valuable resource for professionals involved in the design and construction of concrete structures, providing guidance and recommendations to ensure the long-term performance and durability of these structures.
