3. Cracking of a reinforced concrete tie rod
Here, we consider a reinforced concrete component loaded in pure tension and made up of a concrete section Ac reinforced with n isolated steel reinforcements of diameter ϕ. The tie bar is subjected to a force N.
3.1 Brice's theory
Brice's theory provides a simplified approach to cracking in reinforced concrete. Despite the simplifications it contains, it enables orders of magnitude for crack spacing and opening to be estimated correctly.
