Mass concrete generates internal heat during the hydration period that occurs soon after casting. Added to these internal heat changes are the environmental conditions that the structure is subjected to during its design life. These thermal changes in the material a!ect the elastic and creep propert

## Abstract The analysis of stresses and deformations in concrete structures subjected to temperature gradients is described. As a result of the spatial variation of temperature, the creep compliance is a function of position. Previous work has shown that the constitutive equations for concrete cre
In the paper the experimental results considering the effects of temperature on the elastic modulus and creep of concrete are introduced into the mathematical models of the three-dimensional finite-element method to improve the calculation of creep stresses in mass concrete structures. The finite-el
