3D-2D asymptotic analysis for thin structures rests on the mastery of scaled gradients $\left({\nabla }_{\alpha }{u}_{\epsilon }|\frac{1}{\epsilon }{\nabla }_3{u}_{\epsilon }\right)$ bounded in $L^p(\Omega ;{ℝ}^9),1\<p\<+\infty .$ Here it is shown that, up to a subsequence, $u_{\epsilon }$ may be decomposed as $w_{\epsilon }+z_{\epsilon },$ where $z_{\epsilon }$ carries all the concentration effects, i.e. $\left\{{\left|\left({\nabla }_{\alpha }{w}_{\epsilon }|\frac{1}{\epsilon }{\nabla }_3{w}_{\epsilon }\right)\right|}^p\right\}$ is equi-integrable, and $w_{\epsilon }$ captures the oscillatory behavior, i.e. $z_{\epsilon }\to 0$ in measure. In addition, if $\left\{u_{\epsilon }\right\}$ is a recovering sequence then $z_{\epsilon }=z_{\epsilon }\left(x_{\alpha }\right)$ nearby $\partial \Omega .$
