3. Creep
C r e e p at various constant

contents
Aside from the direct effect of water content on
activation energy U,
U, as just explained, there exists, no
doubt, an additional direct effect of water content Ww on
the creep rate. This is because eq. (S)
(8) does not give a
sufficiently large difference between the creep rates of
wet and dried concretes, which is an order of magnitude
difference. Apparently, the presence of water not only
reduces the activation energy but also generally increases
the mobility of the solid particles that are displaced
during creep. Again, from Marechal's

covers constant as well as variable temperature and
specific water content, defines the effect of these variables on the creep rate and the rate of aging, and
describes the volume changes due to changes of temperature and of moisture content. The effect of pore pressure is taken into account through the effective stress
concept. Generalizations to multi
