how to calculate crack stress in operating a concrete pile?
(OP)
Can anybody please tell me how to calculate the crack stress in operating a concrete pile? Is this crack stress equals 6*sqrt(fc')? Say if the concrete compressive strength fc'=6000 psi, the crack stress equals 6*sqrt(6000)=464 psi?
Thanks a lot for your help.

I can't find anywhere in ACI or PCI at which crack stress in operating or handling a concrete pile (or prestressed concrete pile) is discussed. All I can find is the discussion of permissible stress at transfer or in serviceability stage etc.
