This page is devoted to frequently asked questions (FAQ) related to shrinkage.
On this page:
How is shrinkage modeled?
Answer: Please see the Bridge shrinkage example tutorial for a demonstration of shrinkage application.
During shrinkage analysis, why are there no reactions?
Extended Question: I am using a nonlinear long-term cracked-analysis load case to model shrinkage behavior. Why are there no reactions?
Answer: To perform nonlinear cracked-section analysis, a Dead load case must be applied to the slab surface to induce deflections and reactions.
