Serviceability limit state

Serviceability limit states are verified according to the chapter 7 of EN 1992-1-1. Analysis of serviceability limit states checks the specified service requirements for a structure or structural member during its working life.

Cross-sections are assumed to be cracked for any tensile stress during the analysis of serviceability limit states. The user defined setting is able to consider cross-sections with tensile stress up to the mean value of axial tensile strength fctm as uncracked.

Stress limitation

The verification is based on the chapter 7.2. The analysis is performed for the load (combination) type "Characteristic".

The stress level under the characteristic load is be limited due to occurrence of longitudinal cracks. Maximum compressive stress is given by expression

Where is:

k1

  • The coefficient, the value is 0.6

fck

  • The characteristic compressive cylinder strength of concrete at 28 days

The verification is done according to the chapter 7.2(2) only for the environmental conditions XD, XF or XS.

Tensile stresses in the reinforcement is limited in order to avoid inelastic strain, unacceptable cracking or deformation. The maximum tensile stress is limited in accordance with 7.2(5) by the formula

Where is:

k3

  • The coefficient, the value is 0.8

fyk

  • The characteristic yield strength of reinforcement

The ratio of stiffness of reinforcement and concrete may be specified for the design standard EN 1992-2. This ratio may take account of the degradation of modulus of elasticity of concrete due to creep and similar effects. Such procedure may be required by consequent standards (e.g CSN 73 6214, chapter 6).

Crack control

The verification is based on the chapter 7.3. Cracking limitation ensures the proper functioning and durability of the structure and keep the appearance in acceptable state. . The analysis is performed for the load (combination) type "Quasi-permanent".

Crack width is calculated according to the chapter 7.3.4. The crack width wk is given by formula (7.8):

Where is:

sr,max

  • The maximum crack spacing

εsm

  • The mean strain in the reinforcement under the relevant combination of loads. Only the additional tensile strain beyond the state of zero strain of the concrete at the same level is considered

k2

  • The coefficient which takes account of the distribution of strain. The value is 1.0 for pure tension and 0.5 for bending.

k3

  • The coefficient, the value is 3.4

k4

  • The coefficient, the value is 0.425

c

  • The cover to the longitudinal reinforcement

d

  • The bar diameter. Where a mixture of bar diameters appears, an equivalent diameter is used.

The equivalent diameter d is given by expression (7.12):

Where is:

n1

  • The number of bars of the diameter d1

n2

  • The number of bars of the diameter d2

The value of maximum crack width wmax is based on the table 7.1N.

Deflection control (only program Concrete Beam)

The deflection is calculated using the exact analysis in accordance the recommendation in 7.4.3(7). First, the curvatures at frequent sections along the member are calculated. This is followed by the calculation of deflection using the numerical integration. The deformation parameters at points where the section isn't fully cracked are obtained using the expression (7.18) that is described in the chapter 7.4.3(3):
