Kriechen und Schwinden des Betons sind Verformungseigenschaften des Betons, welche bei der Bemessung im Grenzzustand der Gebrauchstauglichkeit in der Regel zu berücksichtigen sind.
Reinforced concrete surface design for slabs, plates, and walls is possible in the RF-CONCRETE Surfaces module according to the ACI 318-19 or the CSA A23.3-19 standard. A common approach for slab design is the use of design strips for determining the average one-way internal forces over the width of the strip. This design strip method essentially takes a two-way slab element and applies a simpler one-way approach to determine the required reinforcement needed along the strip length.
