    Crack Width Check

    Uploaded by

    Anand Soni
    The document performs crack width checks on a reinforced concrete section using both the limit state and working stress methods. For the limit state method, calculations are shown to check if the crack width remains below 0.2 mm and 0.1 mm for three different service moment values. For the working stress method, calculations check the crack width and steel and concrete stresses. The crack width is found to exceed 0.2 mm, requiring the section to be modified. A direct tension check also confirms the crack width is within limits.

    The document discusses the process of crack width check for reinforced concrete members using both limit state and working stress methods. It involves calculating the crack width (Wcr) and checking if it is within specified limits.

    The steps involved are: calculating average strain, effective depth, spacing of reinforcement, stress in steel, crack width (Wcr) and checking if it is within specified limits of 0.1mm or 0.2mm. Similar steps are followed for both methods with some differences in parameters considered.

    The parameters considered are steel grade, concrete grade, member depth, cover, reinforcement details, service moment/force, effective cover, spacing of reinforcement, limiting strain/stress values in steel and concrete.
