SPREADSHEET OF CALCULATIONS OF CRACK WIDTH IN CONCRETE IN FLEXURE
AS PER IS:456-2000 AND IS 3370 (PART 2) : 2009
Calculates crack width in concrete for a given section with details of concrete grade, type of Steel, and applied load

Structural Element Mark SLAB-S1

Characteristic cube strength of Concrete, f ck M 3
Yield Strength of Steel, fy = 3 N/mm2
Modulus Elasticity of Concrete Ec = 5000 x SQRT( f ck ) = 2.50E+04 N/mm2
Modulus Elasticity of Steel Es = 2.00E+05 N/mm2
Modular Ratio, m, Es/Ec = 8.000

Case: FLEXURE - Section Details of SLAB-S1 Effective depth, 'd', mm =

Breadth of Section, 'b', mm = 1000 ρ = Ast / bd =
Depth of Section, 'h', mm = 250 Neutral axis depth 'x', mm
Area of tension reinforcement, 'Ast', mm2 = 2093 'acr', mm =
Bar diameter, mm = 20 'Z', mm =
Maximum bar spacing, 'S', mm = 150 Steel Stress, 'fs', N/mm2=
Cover to tension reinforcement, mm = 40 Concrete Stress,'fc',N/mm2=
Applied Moment at service condn., 'M', kNm = 69.00 Distance 'a', mm

Strain at the level considered, 'ε1' = 0.001276

Average Steel Strain at the level considered, 'εm' = 0.001075
Design surface crack width, 'Wcr', mm :
Case: Ignoring stiffening of concrete in tension zone 0.17968 As per IS:456-2000
Case: Considering stiffening effect, 0.2mm limit crack width 0.17968 Ref: IS 3370 (Pt.2):200
Case: Considering stiffening effect, 0.1mm limit crack width > 0.1mm
