Which outcome occurs when an over-pressurized concrete pour compromises steel beam concrete bonding?

A)Reduced resonant frequency observed
B)Accelerated creep deformation develops
C)Increased tensile strength results
D)Enhanced composite action occurs

💡 Explanation

Accelerated creep deformation develops because the high pressure during the pour impairs the interfacial bond via increased micro-fractures. Mechanical interlocking becomes less effective due to hydrostatic stress effects; therefore creep accelerates rather than strengthens the beam.
