The effects of shrinkage and creep of concrete and non-uniform changes of<br />

temperature result in internal forces in cross sections, and curvatures and<br />

longitudinal strains in members; the effects that occur in statically determinate<br />

structures, and in statically indeterminate structures when compatibility of the<br />

deformations is not considered, shall be classified as primary effects.<br />
