Abstract:
Most existing research deals with crack width studies in beams and one-way members. This investigation covers the effect of two-way action on crack width development, crack pattern evaluation and crack width control.

The extent of cracking in slabs reinforced with smooth welded wire fabric is determined by the bond and achorage properties of fabric as well as by the magnitude of the steel stress. Test results show that the crack spacing is controlled primarily by the transverse wire spacing and by the size and spacing of the longitudinal wires.

The concepts of crack arrest in concrete and the effect of closely spaced fiber reinforcement upon fracture toughness is reviewed in order to provide a basis for the description of the specific properties of fiber reinforced concrete.

Cracking in portland cement concrete pavement is a problem in conventional pavements, both plain and reinforced. Efforts to control cracking involve the use of transverse joints. In effect, natural transverse cracks are replaced by man-made crack. But joints also have undesirable characteristics.

A brief review of past research concerning crack control is presented and a recent investigation of similitude of top surface T-beam cracking under negative moment is described in detail. Similitude of cracking is evaluated in relation to the results of tests of quarter, half, and full-scale specimens. The reliability of expressions for computation of crack width is discussed.
