EUROCODE 2 - Crack Calculations (Doubly Reinforced)
EUROCODE 2 - Crack Calculations (Doubly Reinforced)
INPUT
fcu= 35 N/mm2
fy= 460 N/mm2
Area of reinforcement " As " = 2093 mm2
b= 1000 mm
h= 250 mm
d= 200 mm
Minimum cover to tension reinforcement " CO " = 40 mm
Maxmum bar spacing " S " = 150 mm
Bar dia " DIA " = 20 mm
" acr " =(((S/2)^2+(CO+DIA/2)^2)^(1/2)-DIA/2) as default or enter other value = 80.1 mm
"acr " is distance from the point considered to the surface of the nearest longitudinal bar
Applied service moment " Ms "= 69.0 KNm
CALCULATIONS
moduli of elasticity of concrete " Ec" = (1/2)*(20+0.2*fcu) = 13.5 KN/mm2
moduli of elasticity of steel " Es " = 200.0 KN/mm2
Modular ratio " a " = (Es/Ec) = 14.81
" r " = As/bd = 0.010
depth to neutral axis, "x" = (-a.r +((a.r)2 + 2.a.r)0.5.d = 85 mm
