9 Design for Serviceability Limit State
9.1 Causes of cracking and general principles of crack control:
9.1.1 Early thermal effects
9.1.2 Autogenous and drying shrinkage
9.1.3 Restraints
9.1.4 Cracking due to restraint (early thermal and shrinkage
effects)
9.1.5 Cracking due to flexure
9.1.6 Cracking due to combinations of restraint and loading
Assumed that target limiting crack widths will give satisfactory
performance
9.2 General principles of crack control and minimum reinforcement
Provision of minimum reinforcement does not guarantee any
specific crack width. It is simply a necessary amount presumed by
models to control cracking; but not necessarily a sufficient amount
to limit actual crack widths.

9.3 Sequence for verification of cracking

9.4 Check whether section is likely to crack
9.5 Check minimum reinforcement
9.6 Determine limiting crack width
9.7 Calculate crack width
9.7.1 Crack width and crack spacing, wk = sr,max cr
Crack inducing strain:
9.7.2 cr due to edge restraint and early thermal effects.
9.7.3 cr due to edge restraint and long term effects
9.7.4 cr due to end restraint
9.7.5 cr due to flexure (and applied tension)
9.7.6 cr due to a combination of restraint and loading
Concrete Basements
9 Design for Serviceability Limit State
9.4 Test for restraint cracking
A section will crack if:
r = Rax free = K[([cT1 +ca) R1 + ([cT2 R2) + cd R3] ctu
where K = allowance for creep = 0.65 when R is calculated using CIRIA C660
= 1.0 when R is calculated using BS EN 1992-3
c = coefficient of thermal expansion (See CIRIA C660 for values). See Table A6 for typical values
T1 = difference between the peak temperature of concrete during hydration and ambient
temperature C (See CIRIA C660). Typical values are noted in Table A7
ca = Autogenous shrinkage strain value for early age (3 days: see Table A9) R1, R2,
R3
= restraint factors. See Section A5.6
For edge restraint from Figure L1 of BS EN 1992-3 for short- and long-term thermal and long-
term drying situations. For base-wall restraint they may be calculated in accordance with
CIRIA C660. Figure L1 may be used with CIRIA C660 methods providing an adjustment for
creep is made (See Figure A2 and note).
For end restraint, where the restraint is truly rigid 1.0 is most often used, for instance in infill
bays. This figure might be overly pessimistic for piled slabs.
T2 = long-term drop in temperature after concreting, C. T2 depends on the ambient temperature
during concreting. The recommended values from CIRIA C660 for T2 are 20C for concrete cast
in the summer and 10C for concrete cast in winter. These figures are based on HA BD
28/87[60] based on monthly air temperatures for exposed bridges. Basements are likely to
follow soil temperatures so T2 = 12C may be considered appropriate at depth.
cd
ctu
=
=
drying shrinkage strain, dependent on ambient RH, cement content and member size (see BS
EN 1992-1-1 Exp. (3.9) or CIRIA C660 or Table A10). CIRIA C660 alludes to 45% RH for internal
conditions and 85% for external conditions.
tensile strain capacity may be obtained from Eurocode 2 or CIRIA C660 for both short term and
long term values

9.5 Minimum reinforcement
As,min = kc k Act (fct,eff /fyk)
where
kc =
=
A coefficient to account for stress distribution.
1.0 for pure tension.
When cracking first occurs the cause is usually early thermal effects and the whole section is likely
to be in tension.
k =
=
A coefficient to account for self-equilibrating stresses
1.0 for thickness h < 300 mm and 0.65 for h > 800 mm (interpolation allowed for thicknesses
between 300 mm and 800 mm).
Act = area of concrete in the tension zone just prior to onset of cracking. Act is determined from section
properties but generally for basement slabs and walls is most often based on full thickness of the
section.
fct,eff == fctm
mean tensile strength when cracking may be first expected to occur:
for early thermal effects 3 days for long-term effects, 28 days (which considered to be a reasonable approximation) See Table A5 for typical values.
fyk =
=
characteristic yield strength of the reinforcement.
500 MPa
[1] CIRIA C660 Recent research[61] would suggest that a factor of 0.8 should be applied to fct,eff in the formula for crack
inducing strain due to end restraint. This factor accounts for long-term loading, in-situ strengths compared with laboratory
strengths and the fact that the concrete will crack at its weakest point. TR 59[62] concludes that the tensile strength of
concrete subjected to sustained tensile stress reduces with time to 6070% of its instantaneous value.
The area of reinforcement obtained using this value may well
need increasing during the remaining design process

This guide covers the design and
construction of reinforced concrete
basements and is in accordance with
the Eurocodes.
The aim of the guide is to assist designers of
concrete basements of modest depth, i.e.
not exceeding 10 metres. It will also prove
relevant to designers of other underground
structures. It brings together in one
publication the salient features for the
design and construction of such water-
resisting structures.
The guide has been written for generalist
structural engineers who have a basic understanding of soil mechanics.
