Abstract
This paper presents analytical approach to calculate crack width for reinforced concrete (RC) circular columns under axial load with uniaxial bending as per Euro code 2. Compression members are most commonly encountered in reinforced concrete buildings as columns. Circular columns are efficient in the use of formwork and are elegant in appearance. Crack width analysis of RC structures is not much easy due to complexity of the parameters which affect the crack width and there is no specific simplified guidance for crack width calculations of circular RC columns. This Analytical method will be helpful to enhance the efficiency of the design work related to the crack width calculations of circular RC columns. The present study was carried out to evaluate the behavior of cracks in circular RC columns as per the design standard, EN 1992-1-1. An analytical approach is introduced to calculate the crack width of RC Circular columns and Oasys adsec software was used to perform crack width calculations for validation process.
