A concrete column section of size $300 \mathrm{~mm} \times 500 \mathrm{~mm}$ as shown in the figure is subjected to both axial compression and bending along the major axis. The depth of the neutral axis $\left(x_{u}\right)$ is $1.1$ times the depth of the column, as shown.

The maximum compressive strain $\left(\varepsilon_{c}\right)$ at highly compressive extreme fiber in concrete, where there is no tension in the section, is $\_\_\_\_\_\_\_$ $\times 10^{-3}$ (rounded off to $2$ decimal places).
