2. Prediction of Cracking
Why is it important?
Load distribution and transfer
Durability
Code compliance
Contract conditions
Client expectations
Aesthetics
Clearances, ponding etc.

3. Why is it difficult to predict
crack width?
Uncertain or unknown material properties
Inconsistent and incomplete code provisions
Inherently random nature of cracking
Variations in curing procedures and environmental effects
Complex loading history

4. Indian Code Provisions(IS 456)
Strain in tension reinforcement is limited to 0.8 Fy / Es
Design surface crack width should be in accordance with
the values specified in 35.3.2. of IS456
Concrete and steel are both considered to be fully elastic in both tension and compression
Elastic modulus of steel can be taken as 200 kN/m2
Design surface crack width can be calculated from the
following equation :

7. Provisions for crack width :
Cracking of concrete should not adversely affect the
appearance or durability of structure.
Surface width of cracks should not exceed in general 0.3 mm.
In members which are continuously exposed to moisture or in
contact soil or ground water, an upper limit of 0.2 mm has
been suggested for maximum width of cracks.
For structures in aggressive environmental conditions, the
assessed surface width of cracks should not exceed 0.1 mm.

8. Code provisions for stress limits
AS 3600, AS 5100 and EC2 :
Crack control by stress limits governed by bar diameter and spacing
AS 5100 has much lower stress limits applicable to stresses due to permanent
loads in exposure classifications B2, C or U
AS 3600 limits similar to EC2 limits for 0.4 mm crack width for bar diameter,
and 0.3 mm for bar spacing
AS 5100 limits for exposure classification B2 and higher similar to EC2 limits
for 0.2 mm crack width
The specified stress limits will result in substantially higher design crack
widths with increased cover.

11. Code provisions for crack widths
EC2 - Notes:
Crack spacing is mainly related to cover depth
Crack width is directly proportional to crack spacing
Tension stiffening is limited to 40% of steel strain without
stiffening
Coefficient for long term tension stiffening is reduced by 1/3 (0.6 to
0.4)
