Cracks in Concrete
The disadvantages of concrete construction is the tendency of the concrete to crack when its shrinkage is restrained. Present knowledge of the conditions governing fracture of concrete has been summarized. It appears that failure is related to the volumetric strain in the concrete and the shear strain energy absorbed by it. The analysis made is simplified to give a qualitative indication of the results which should follow from certain properties of paste and aggregate. (Author)
