Abstract
In a companion paper by Bazant and Oh, a simplified theory for predicting the spacing of cracks in a parallel crack system in reinforced concrete was presented. In this paper a different approximate analysis yields about the same result. For this purpose, a solution based on the formulas for the stress caused by a concentrated force in a halfspace is used.
