Creep and Hygrothermal Effects in Concrete Structures

By Zdeněk P Bazant, Milan Jirasek, Zdenek P. Bazănt

Book Overview

Based on current level of theoretical development

Clear separation, in Parts I and II, of the minimalistic simple approach for practicing engineers from a more realistic but more sophisticated approach for researchers and analysts of special structures

Multiscale relation of macroscopic models to nano-scale materials science, thermodynamics of water adsorption, and diffusion processes

Includes probabilistic aspects, statistical data evaluation, and statistical prediction, required to counter high scatter in structural response

Includes case studies, such as the excessive deflections of collapsed world-record bridge in Palau
