dc.description.abstract	Shrinkage is an important contributor to slab movements. It is therefore necessary to include it for a realistic physical modelling of shrinkage. Shrinkage of concrete is modelled by an application of a strain profile across the depth of the slab. Application of shrinkage to the cement sheet is performed in the present work. The 3D numerical modelling of a cement and foam sheet with glass fibre mesh in ABAQUS has been presented. Two numerical examples are studied in the present work. (1) Foam-cement sheet embedded with glass fibre (2) Foam – cement sheet not embedded with glass fibre. Numerical results are obtained for both cases. Maximum principal stresses, displacements and logarithmic strain are obtained.	en_US
