Abstract:

Motivated by the establishment of a Ferry-Free E39 coastal highway route, crack width calculation methods for design of large-scale concrete structures are discussed. It is argued that the current semi-empirical formulas recommended by Eurocode 2 is inconsistent and overly conservative for cross sections with large bar diameters and covers. A suggestion to formulating a more consistent crack width calculation method is given.
