4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define creep in concrete.
Think about how concrete can deform over time under a constant load.
What does the Maxwell Model illustrate?
Consider how both immediate and delayed responses to stress are represented.
What does the term 'creep' refer to in concrete?
Think about how lasting pressure affects materials.
True or False: The Burger's Model combines the principles of the Maxwell and Kelvin-Voigt models.
Remember the overlapping concepts of these models.
A concrete structure experiences a constant load of 50 MPa. If the creep compliance at 10 years is found to be J(10, 0) = 0.015, calculate the expected total strain after 10 years.
Remember to use the formula for total strain.
Compare the applicability of the Maxwell and Kelvin-Voigt models for short-term versus long-term predictions of concrete behavior and provide examples of when each would be most applicable.
Think about time frames and responses to loads.
