Depth of Neutral Axis given Crack Width Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Depth of Neutral Axis = Total Depth-(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(3*Shortest Distance*Strain)-1)
x = h-(2*(acr-Cmin)/(3*acr*ε)-1)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Depth of Neutral Axis - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Neutral Axis is defined as the distance from the top of the section to its neutral axis.
Total Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Total Depth is described as the total depth of the member.
Shortest Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Shortest Distance is described as the distance from selected level on the surface to the longitudinal bar.
Minimum Clear Cover - (Measured in Meter) - Minimum Clear Cover is described as the distance from exposed concrete surface to the outer surface of reinforcement.
Strain - Strain is simply the measure of how much an object is stretched or deformed.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Total Depth: 20.1 Centimeter --> 0.201 Meter (Check conversion here)
Shortest Distance: 2.51 Centimeter --> 0.0251 Meter (Check conversion here)
Minimum Clear Cover: 9.48 Centimeter --> 0.0948 Meter (Check conversion here)
Strain: 1.0001 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
x = h-(2*(acr-Cmin)/(3*acr*ε)-1) --> 0.201-(2*(0.0251-0.0948)/(3*0.0251*1.0001)-1)
Evaluating ... ...
x = 3.05207651253467
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
3.05207651253467 Meter -->3052.07651253467 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
3052.07651253467 3052.077 Millimeter <-- Depth of Neutral Axis

7 Calculation of Crack Width Calculators

Average Strain at Selected Level given Crack Width
Go Average Strain = (Crack Width*(1+(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(Total Depth-Depth of Neutral Axis))))/(3*Shortest Distance)
Minimum Clear Cover given Crack Width
Go Minimum Clear Cover = Shortest Distance-((((3*Shortest Distance*Average Strain)/Crack Width)-1)*(Total Depth-Depth of Neutral Axis))/2
Crack Width on Surface of Section
Go Crack Width = (3*Shortest Distance*Average Strain)/(1+(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(Total Depth-Depth of Neutral Axis)))
Depth of Neutral Axis given Crack Width
Go Depth of Neutral Axis = Total Depth-(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(3*Shortest Distance*Strain)-1)
Effective Cover given Shortest Distance
Go Effective Cover = sqrt((Shortest Distance+(Diameter of Longitudinal Bar/2))^2-(Center-to-center Distance/2)^2)
Center to Center Spacing given Shortest Distance
Go Center to Center Spacing = 2*sqrt((Shortest Distance+(Diameter of Longitudinal Bar/2))^2-(Effective Cover^2))
Diameter of Longitudinal Bar given Shortest Distance
Go Diameter of Longitudinal Bar = (sqrt((Center-to-center Distance/2)^2+Effective Cover^2)-Shortest Distance)*2

Depth of Neutral Axis given Crack Width Formula

Depth of Neutral Axis = Total Depth-(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(3*Shortest Distance*Strain)-1)
