Crack widths in base restrained walls subjected to restraint loading

•An FE-model for analyzing cracking in base restrained walls is developed.•The model is verified by comparing with previously performed full scale tests.•The model can be used to investigate crack widths due to restraint effects. Cracks in concrete structures can have a negative impact on durability...
