Abstract
Based on the static test of large-scaled prestressed steel concrete frames, the behavior of crack were tested and investigated. In this paper, according to theory of reinforced concrete members, Code for design of concrete structures(GB 50010-2002)and code ACI 318—05, the formulas of cracking moment considering secondary axial forces were deduced and verified by test results. Conclusion can be drawn as follow: the calculation errors of formulas derive from theory of reinforced concrete members is small, generally less than 6%; the errors of formulas referring to Code for design of concrete structures(GB 50010-2002)is about 10%, which is satisfy the needs of engineering and simply to be calculated; Cracking moment calculated by formulas referring to code ACI 318—05 is less than test result, it is unsafe for engineering application.
