Civil Engineering MCQAE Level Civil Engineering
As per IS 456:2000, the creep coefficient (φ) for concrete at 28-day loading is approximately:
RCCCreep CoefficientMEDIUM
Choose the correct answer
A
0.5 to 1.0
B
1.6
C
2.2
D
3.0
Correct Answer
C. 2.2
Why is this the answer?
IS 456:2000 Table 9: Creep coefficient for loading at 28 days = 2.2; for loading at 7 days = 3.0; for loading at 1 year = 1.1. Creep coefficient depends significantly on age at loading.
