Abstract

This article addresses the often overlooked but critical long-term factors of creep, shrinkage, ageing and corrosion in civil engineering structures. The paper emphasizes their substantial impact on structural mechanical resistance and safety, drawing attention to key examples like the Civic Tower in Pavia, the Koror-Babeldaob Bridge and dams in the USA. By exploring the challenges faced in modern engineering, the article sheds light on the need to consider these effects. Various models for predicting creep and shrinkage in concrete structures are introduced as potential solutions. In conclusion, the paper highlights the necessity for engineers to navigate the intricacies of material behaviour for successful construction amidst evolving challenges.
