Thermo-hygro-mechanical modelling of self-induced stresses during the service life of RC structures

Current practices of structural design in reinforced concrete (RC) structures usually account for stresses caused by phenomena such as heat of hydration and drying shrinkage in a quite simplified manner. The present paper aims to evaluate the consequences of explicitly considering self-induced stres...
