Crack Width Calculation Excel Sheet

This document provides a crack width calculation for a concrete flexural member with given inputs of material strengths, reinforcement details, and applied service moment. The calculations determine the depth to the neutral axis, stresses in the reinforcement and concrete, and average strain. Using these values, the calculated crack width is 0.19 mm, within the limiting design crack width of 0.1 mm allowed by accounting for concrete stiffening between cracks.
