  1. 1. Investigation of cracking due to restraint forces in Swedish concrete slab frame bridges

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik

    Author : Robin Almen; [2016]
    Keywords : slab frame bridges; concrete cracking; crack control; restraint; restraint forces; finite element; Technology and Engineering;
