Longterm experimental studies of the influenceof longitudinal cracks on durability, shortterm strength and deformation of the central compressed construction of reinforced concrete elements
Often when determining the deformation and load-bearing properties of reinforced concrete structures of normative documents is not taken into account the influence of longitudinal cracks in the protective layer of concrete formed as a result of reinforcement corrosion. To explore this issue long-term experimental studies on the conditions of conventional reinforced concrete elements and their subsequent destruction were held. Results are given in the article
