Abstract

With the development of infrastructure, the problem of cracks in concrete structures is getting more and attention. Cracks will not only affect the appearance of the structure, if the cracks width are too large, even they can pose a threat for the durability and safety of structures, therefore we need to develop specific norms to control the width of the cracks. But in and abroad for the calculation of crack width is mainly empirical formula was obtained through a large number of experimental data, because of the differences of basic theory and experimental conditions, the empirical formula obtained vary widely, so that there is large gap on the results of cracks width. In this paper, combining reinforced concrete bond-slip theory with nonlinear simulation capabilities of ANSYS, we get the practical calculation method of concrete crack width, and the results were compared with experiment.
