Calculate the width of the cracks that will develop in a reinforced concrete slabdue to shrinkage at:a) 60 days after curing endsb) t=0 (maximum crack width possible)The ambient conditions are such that the ultimate shrinkage strain, €shus isapproximately 750*106. The spacing of the cracks is approximately 6 ft. All timesare taken from the end of the 7-day moist-curing process.

Given that : Ultimate shrinkage strain = 750 × 10-6 Spacing of cracks = 6 ft

The manufacturer of a product that is subjected to repetitive cycles has specified that the product should be removed from service when any crack reaches 15% of the critical crack length required to cause fracture. Consider a crack that is initially 0.02 mm long in a material with a fracture toughness of 55 MPaVm. The product is continuously cycled between compres- sive and tensile stresses of 300 MPa at a constant frequency. Assume external cracks for whichƒ= 1.12. The materials constants for these units are n- 3.4 and C- 2x 10-1. (a) What is the critical crack length required to cause fracture? (b) How many cycles will cause product failure?
