Abstract:
The objective of this study is to evaluate four shrinkage and creep prediction models, namely the ACI 209 model, the CEB 90 model, the B3 model, and the GL 2000 model. The shrinkage and creep values determined by the models are compared against the RILEM experimental data bank. Five statistical methods are used to determine the order of performance of each model. The study finds that the B3 and the GL 2000 are best performing models for shrinkage strain prediction while the CEB 90, B3, and GL 2000 models perform best for creep prediction.
