Abstract
The relationship between surrounding temperature and deformation behaviour of one full scale concrete plate with compressive strength of 60 MPa was presented in this paper. This research was done in Indonesia. Indonesia presents humid tropical weather. A specimen measuring 3.00m × 1.60m × 0.15m was used. Deformation was obtained by using four embedded vibrating wire strain gauges. The range observation is held between 7 to 28 days. The peaks of deformation follow peaks of surrounding temperature. Some deformation peaks time occur after surrounding temperature peak time, it is called as delay time. As a result, there is a linear relationship between temperature and deformation. The relationship was influenced by a factor which presented its position and delay time. The average error of this model is less than 15% at the age range of 7 until 14 days, and less than 50% at the age range of 15 - 28 days.
