Check Crack Width According To Aci 224R‐Eq.4‐2A®: W=0.076 β Fs (dc * A) ^0.33

The document provides a formula to calculate the most probable maximum crack width (W) in concrete according to ACI 224R-EQ.4-2a. The formula is: W=0.076 β Fs (dc * A)^0.33 Where β is the ratio of distance between the neutral axis and tension face to distance between neutral axis and reinforcing steel, Fs is the reinforcing steel service stress in ksi, dc is the thickness of concrete cover, and A is the area of concrete divided by number of bars. When this formula is applied to the example structural dimensions provided, the calculated crack width is 0.004 inches, which is less than the 0.0016 inch limit for water
