3D Thermo-hygro-mechanical approach for simulation of the cracking behaviour of a RC slab under the combined effects of applied loads and restrained shrinkage

The design of reinforced concrete (RC) structures that meet safety, functionality and aesthetic requirements during their lifespan, without unforeseen maintenance costs, depends on adequate design practices that allow engineers to properly control and predict crack widths on concrete. Even though th...
