Experimental study of the long-term shortening of reinforced concrete columns under maintaining concentric axial load
This paper presents the results of an experimental study to measure the shortening of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under long-term click here maintaining concentric axial load.Long-term axial deformation due to shrinkage and creep of the concrete were recorded beside deformation due to mechanical load.Eight RC cylinder - columns (content of rei
