Comparison of Crack-Width Prediction Models for Steel-Reinforced Concrete Structures

Prediction of time-to-cracking and crack-width of concrete cover provides useful information for decision making on maintenance and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete structures. Comparison of prediction models for time-to-cracking has been done in a recently published study, which indicated simple prediction models provide better good fit to various sets of experimental data than complex models. As a follow-up, this study uses published crack-width data to compare different models, developed in the literature to predict crack-width of concrete cover.
