Crack Width Calculation Excel Sheet

The document outlines the calculations for crack width according to BS8110:1997 and BS8007:1987 for a project by MPJNM. It includes input parameters such as concrete and steel properties, reinforcement details, and applied service moment, followed by detailed calculations leading to a calculated crack width of 0.20 mm. The document emphasizes the importance of verifying the crack width as per IS 1343 standards.

CRACK WIDTH CALCULATIONS - FLEXURE -

INPUT
fcu= 25 N/mm2
fy= 500 N/mm2
Area of reinforcement " As " = 1562 mm2
b= 350 mm
h= 500 mm
d= 510 mm
Minimum cover to tension reinforcement " CO " = 25 mm
Maxmum bar spacing " S " = 50 mm
Bar dia " DIA " = 20 mm
" acr " =(((S/2)^2+(CO+DIA/2)^2)^(1/2)-DIA/2) as default or enter other value = 33.01 mm
"acr " is distance from the point considered to the surface of the nearest longitudinal bar
Applied service moment " Ms "= 311.5 KNm

CALCULATIONS
moduli of elasticity of concrete " Ec" = (1/2)*(20+0.2*fcu) = 12.5 KN/mm2
moduli of elasticity of steel " Es " = 200.0 KN/mm2
Modular ratio " a " = (Es/Ec) = 16.00
" r " = As/bd = 0.009
depth to neutral axis, "x" = (-a.r +((a.r)2 + 2.a.r)0.5.d = 208 mm

" Z " = d-(x/3) = 441


Reinforcement stress " fs " = Ms/(As*Z) = 452 N/mm2
Concrete stress " fc " = (fs*As)/(0.5*b*x) = 19.44 N/mm2
Strain at soffit of concrete beam/slab " e1 " = (fs/Es)*(h-x)/(d-x) = 0.002187
Strain due to stiffening effect of concrete between cracks " e2 " =
e2 = b.(h-x)2/(3.Es.As.(d-x)) for crack widths of 0.2 mm Used
e2 = 1.5.b.(h-x)2/(3.Es.As.(d-x)) for crack widths of 0.1 mm n/a
e2 = 0.000106
Average strain for calculation of crack width " em "= e1-e2 = 0.002082

Calculated crack width, " w " = 3.acr.em/(1+2.(acr-c)/(h-x))


CALCULATED CRACK WIDTH, 'w' = 0.20 mm

As [er IS 1343 Please check the crack width
