| Crack type | Possible cause | Urgency | |------------|----------------|---------| | Hairline (<0.3 mm) | Shrinkage | Low | | Vertical at mid-span | Overload / flexure | Moderate | | Diagonal near strap anchor | Shear failure or strap tension | High | | Horizontal along rebar | Corrosion (beam spalling) | High | | Widening over time | Active movement | Urgent |
: Input the analysis results to generate reinforcement schedules and verify that the physical "cracks" stay within the allowable limit of the chosen design code. ATIR -.:LAVteam:. atir strap and beamd with crack
These are vertical cracks that usually appear in the middle of a beam where the bending stress is highest. Repair Methods: Common professional repairs include epoxy injection for concrete or using resin and hidden plates for wooden support beams. Assessment: | Crack type | Possible cause | Urgency
: If reinforcement alone isn't enough, you may need to increase the beam's depth ( ) or width ( ) to reduce the service stresses that cause cracking. atir strap and beamd with crack
Use high-performance concrete with low permeability.
