Average Strain under Tension evaluator uses Average Strain = Strain at Selected Level-(Crack Width*(Height of Crack-Depth of Neutral Axis)*(Distance from Compression to Crack Width-Depth of Neutral Axis))/(3*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement*Area of Reinforcement*(Effective Length-Depth of Neutral Axis)) to evaluate the Average Strain, The Average Strain under Tension is defined as a relative displacement. Initial, The definition of strain is simple but at the same time is non-unique. Average Strain is denoted by εm symbol.
How to evaluate Average Strain under Tension using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Average Strain under Tension, enter Strain at Selected Level (ε1), Crack Width (Wcr), Height of Crack (hCrack), Depth of Neutral Axis (x), Distance from Compression to Crack Width (DCC), Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement (Es), Area of Reinforcement (As) & Effective Length (Leff) and hit the calculate button.
