Depth of Neutral Axis, x = 70.16 mm
CALCULATION OF CRACK WIDTH (mm)
Applied Moment (M) = 49050000 N-mm
Tensile Force in Steel (T) = 201344 N
Tensile Stress in Steel, fst = 150 N/mm2

Strain in Steel es = 0.000751 OK

Strain at Level considered e1 = 0.000973

In tension area, (Where

fst=m X fc = fc is stress in concrete at
that level)
Therefore, fc = 16.102 FAIL
