Differential shrinkage is a phenomenon that occurs in composite sections, which are made up of different materials or different grades of concrete, as the different materials will experience a different rate of shrinkage (i.e., PSC composite I Girder). In this article, we will focus on differential shrinkage due to the different time-dependent effects for the composite section consisting of the same material with different grades of concrete for the deck slab and the girder. Differential shrinkage is an important concept to consider when designing composite sections even when the same material is used for both the girder and deck, the age difference will cause the differential shrinkage effects. This will induce different time-dependent effects on both since both the parts are integrally connected internal stress will be generated to reduce the differential effect.

Material properties must be applied when performing analysis. midas Civil provides 'Material Properties' function to define various materials. Some users who are a beginner or are not familiar with midas Civil might be confused while defining a material property because there are various options. These options are used for linear analysis or nonlinear analysis and those are used or not depending on the purpose of analysis.
