9Crack Width Control
Reasons for crack width control?
- Appearance (smooth surface gt 0.01 to 0.013
public concern) - Leakage (Liquid-retaining structures)
- Corrosion (cracks can speed up occurrence
of corrosion)
10Crack Width Control
Corrosion more apt to occur if (steel oxidizes
rust )
- Chlorides ( other corrosive substances) present
- Relative Humidity gt 60
- High Ambient Temperatures (accelerates chemical
reactions) - Wetting and drying cycles
- Stray electrical currents occur in the bars.

Show in the attached figure is a typical interior
span of a floor beam spanning between the girders
at locations A and C. Partition walls, which may
be damaged by large deflections, are to be
erected at this level. The interior beam shown
in the attached figure will support one of these
partition walls. The weight of the wall is
included in the uniform dead load provided in the
figure. Assume that 15 of the distributed
dead load is due to a superimposed dead load,
which is applied to the beam after the partition
wall is in place. Also assume that 40 of the
live load will be sustained for at least 6 months.
