Analysis of the Generating and Influencing Factors of Vertical Cracking in Abutments during Construction

In order to analyze the causes of cracking in abutments subject to concrete shrinkage and temperature variation during the construction process and to determine factors affecting the mechanical properties of the abutment, nonlinear calculations capturing abutment behavior are conducted with Midas/FE...
