What is meant by Theoretical Thickness in Concrete?
The ultimate load bearing capacity for cohesive soil can be define by following formula: Where, Qu = Ultimate load capacity, kN Ap = Cross-sectional area of pile tip, in m2 Nc = Bearing capacity factor, may be taken as 9 ci = Average cohesion for the ith layer, in kN/m2 Asi = Surface area of pile shRead more

Where,
Qu = Ultimate load capacity, kN
Ap = Cross-sectional area of pile tip, in m2
Nc = Bearing capacity factor, may be taken as 9
ci = Average cohesion for the ith layer, in kN/m2
Asi = Surface area of pile shaft in the ith layer, in m2

The thickness of the concrete cover measure is usually part of the concrete quality control in modern construction so as to ensure that the thickness of the concrete cover in conformity with the specifications. The process of measuring the thickness of the concrete cover in structures was noted by the beginning of the corrosion, as the lack of concrete cover thickness increased the corrosion rate for corrosion as a result of chlorides or carbonation, where it expedited the propagation inside the concrete, causing the speed of steel corrosion as well as the lack of cover helps the propagation of moisture and oxygen, which are form the main basis for the corrosion process.
