In the structural design of a reinforced concrete slab, one of the most dominant serviceability limit states is the long-term deflection or deformation that occurs over time due to cracking, creep and shrinkage. In the past, Engineers have used rule of thumb methods to estimate deflections based on gross elastic concrete properties. With large spans […]
