Depth of Neutral Axis given Crack Width Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Neutral Axis = Total Depth-(2*(Shortest Distance-Minimum Clear Cover)/(3*Shortest Distance*Strain)-1)
x = h-(2*(acr-C_min)/(3*acr*ε)-1)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Neutral Axis - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Neutral Axis is defined as the distance from the top of the section to its neutral axis.
Total Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Total Depth is described as the total depth of the member.
Shortest Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Shortest Distance is described as the distance from selected level on the surface to the longitudinal bar.
Minimum Clear Cover - (Measured in Meter) - Minimum Clear Cover is described as the distance from exposed concrete surface to the outer surface of reinforcement.
Strain - Strain is simply the measure of how much an object is stretched or deformed.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Depth: 20.1 Centimeter --> 0.201 Meter (Check conversion here)
Shortest Distance: 2.51 Centimeter --> 0.0251 Meter (Check conversion here)
Minimum Clear Cover: 9.48 Centimeter --> 0.0948 Meter (Check conversion here)
Strain: 1.0001 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

x = h-(2*(acr-C_min)/(3*acr*ε)-1) --> 0.201-(2*(0.0251-0.0948)/(3*0.0251*1.0001)-1)

Evaluating ... ...

x = 3.05207651253467

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3.05207651253467 Meter -->3052.07651253467 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

3052.07651253467 ≈ 3052.077 Millimeter <-- Depth of Neutral Axis
