In Eurocode and other design codes, like ACI 209R-92, there are time dependent concrete strength and elastic modulus.
Midas and Sap2000 allow for these features.
RM Bridge allows for time dependent elastic modulus
With Sofistik Aqua->MEXT, we can define special material values for any type of material, but there no option for concrete strength and elastic modulus.
Can we expect these features in the (near) future?
If you use CSM, a time dependant E-Modulus according to FIP Model Code 1990 is used by default (see CTRL EMOD AUTO).

Thanks for the tip.
Unfortunately, according to CSM manual
But according to FIP Model Code 1990, it has something to do with temperature, NOT with time
The adjustment is time/age dependent.
However since concrete matures quicker at a higher temperature a concrete sample stored at 20°C will have developed more strength than a sample at 10°C (given the same time)
Therefore you need to calculate “temperature adjusted days”
