A Simplified Concrete Creep and Shrinkage CEB-FIP90 Model in Long-Span Bridge Design

Article Preview

Abstract:

The concrete shrinkage strain and creep coefficient calculation method in CEB - FIP MC90 model is briefly introduced. For application convenience in bridge design, a simplified formula for calculation of the concrete shrinkage strain and creep coefficient is derived. Considering the varying range of every influence factor, a correlation analysis for the factor is carried out. And the weights of those factors related to concrete shrinkage and creep coefficient are discussed. Considering the climate characteristics and the bridge structure features in the Pearl River Delta area, the variation ranges of concrete nominal shrinkage strain and nominal creep coefficient are calculated respectively.
