Appendix 10: Base Slab Crack Width Calculation (As Per IS 456: ANNEX: F)

The document provides calculations to determine the crack width of a base slab according to Indian Standard IS 456. It details dimensions of the slab, reinforcement provided, stresses considered, and calculations to determine the neutral axis depth, tensile stress in steel, cracked transformed section properties, and crack width. The calculated crack width of 0.2 mm meets the permissible limit specified in IS 456.
