Surface Reinforcement in Concrete Beams to Ensure Controlled Cracking
Abstract Principles and methods for design of surface reinforcement required to control cracking on side faces of reinforced concrete beams are presented and discussed. On the basis of the modified concept for assessing the effective tension area in the beam’s cross-section, which dimensions was assessed using the fracture mechanics of concrete, a method was proposed to calculate cracks width over the entire depth of beam provided with surface reinforcement. Proposed method allows to determine the quantity and distribution of surface reinforcement above the main reinforcement axis necessary for the acceptable width of cracks.
