Estimate the elastic shrinkage and total axial deformation


Estimate the elastic, shrinkage, and total axial deformation of a concrete column after 2 years of permanent load application.  Assume the full structural load was applied at 28 days after placing concrete.  Summary:

Axial column load: 200,000 lb

28 days compression strength: 3000 psi

Length: 15 ft

Area: 12 in x 12 in

Unit weight: 140 pcf

Curing: 14 days of moist cure

Relative Humidity: 40%

Minimum member thickness: 12 in

Concrete consistency: 4 inch of slump

Fine aggregate: 40%

Air content: 8%

Cement content: 9.0 sack/yd^3
