Answer:
The effective cover can be defined as Nominal cover+(Radius of bar) /2 option (C).
Explanation:
It is a distance which is measured from face of member to the central area of reinforcement or we can say that tension reinforcement. Nominal cover is the concrete design depth for all steel reinforcement.
It is used in calculating designs and to calculate depth of a beam during construction of building. If we have 300 mm deep beam with tension 40 reinforcement and cover is 20 mm than effective depth will be 300 – 20 – 10 = 270.
