Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a Creep Coefficient of φ = 2 for a structure, calculate the total creep strain if the elastic strain at loading was measured as 500µε.
💡 Hint: Focus on understanding the relationship expressed by the Creep Coefficient.
A creep frame setup has an applied constant load. Discuss how environmental factors such as humidity might influence the creep results. Include at least two environmental factors in your discussion.
💡 Hint: Consider how moisture content changes can impact material properties.
