4 年It's not usually about design. You can't stop concrete cracking from hydration shrinkage. I have done 14,000 m3 single pours in the past but these were thick sections. Shrinkage reinforcement requires small diameter bars at close centres. Take a look at it again in 6 months. I have investigated too many long thin pours in the past that end up being resin injected.
