Cracking of Beams Under Mechanical Flexural Loading
Tests carried out on beams by the CEOS.fr project have shown differences between the measured and calculated values of crack spacing. In addition, the crack widths given by EC2 and MC2010 appear to give mean values that are greater than the crack width maximum values. Two methods of calculating the crack width are proposed which includes calculation of the crack width from the relative strain based on the equations given in MC2010 and calculation of the crack width by interpolation between the un‐cracked stage and the stabilized cracking stage of the beam. The crack width calculations are based on the basic case of a prismatic reinforced concrete tie, subjected to axial tension. The alternative way of calculating crack width by interpolation between uncracked and fully cracked conditions. The tensile strength is more likely close to that measured on the specimen.
