The concrete state is a function of the strains associated with thermal and other dilatations and the level of in-situ strength. Both strain and strength primarily require information on the temperature-time history of the concrete element. For larger elements, the thermal history varies significantly across the thickness and the concrete material itself acts as a confinement for discrete elements. Due to complexity of the issue, designers currently rely on mock tests and/or finite element modelling mostly for structures that are deemed ‘important’. Both approaches are costly and time consuming. It is, therefore, important to have a robust yet simple model to estimate the temperature variation experienced by the concrete elements. The proposed spreadsheet-based model reported in this paper aims to provide a rapid estimate of the temperature profiles within a hydrating concrete element. The model uses the concept of effective thickness and the revised heat compensation technique. It is validated based on measured temperature development of a rectangular section concrete block. Further, the proposed model is successfully compared with output from finite element software TNO Diana.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"10 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138589880","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The confined region of SRC columns with CSS sections was divided into four parts: highly steel-confined concrete (HSC), partially steel-confined concrete (PSC), stirrup confined concrete (SCC), and unconfined concrete (UCC). Additionally, relevant effective confinement coefficient expressions were presented. Simulation results of existing tests showed that (1) load-strain curves obtained by using the modified stress-strain constitutive model agreed well with the experimental results, with the error in the descending branch smaller than 5%; (2) the HSC region for SRC columns with CSS sections in the finite element model (FEM) was in a good agreement with that in the proposed region division; (3) concrete confined region boundaries simulation for SRC columns with CSS sections were determined by using plumb lines for improving the calculation efficiency.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"68 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138587199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notched Brazilian Discs (NBD) were also used in order to validate the results of the conducted ENPD experiments. Moreover, a numerical analysis was conducted on the ENPD tests to verify the correctness of the measured fracture toughness values compared to numerically obtain ones. Notch lengths in ENPD were set to 15, 30, 45 and 60 mm. However, the lengths of Notches in NBD were set to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 mm. The findings reveal that the flat joint model could accurately determine the potential crack growth path and crack initiation stress compared to experimentally obtained results. It was also deduced that the fracture toughness remained roughly the same by enlarging the length of the notch. Moreover, tensile strength and fracture toughness of shotcrete samples are meaningfully correlated (σt =7.92 KIC). ENPD test yields the lowest fracture toughness because of pure tensile stress distribution on failure surface. It also was also determined that the derived fracture extension patterns from the laboratory investigations are in an acceptable agreement with the numerical simulations’ outputs.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"57 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138588056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To study the single-blend and double-blend polypropylene micro and macro fibers and their effect on the compressive strength of RAC specimens, polypropylene micro fibers of two sizes and polypropylene macro fibers of two sizes were selected to design and produced 30 groups of polypropylene fiber reinforced RAC test specimens with 0%, 25% and 50% coarse aggregate substitution rates by controlling the fiber mixing proportion and the stress-strain curves, elastic modulus, peak strength, peak strain and acoustic emission amplitude-frequency extremum of each group of test specimen were obtained. According to the test results, the elastic modulus and peak stress of test specimens without polypropylene fibers decrease gradually with the increase of the coarse aggregate substitution rate. However, there is a certain increase in elastic modulus and peak stress after polypropylene fibers are added. A damage constitutive model for polypropylene fiber reinforced RAC was established, and by fitting with this model, it is found that although the elastic modulus and peak stress of RAC test specimens are increased by a certain extent, the fitting parameters αc of RAC are greater than those of ordinary concrete, and its post-peak strength is lower than that of ordinary concrete. The evolution law of acoustic emission amplitude-frequency extremum of polypropylene fiber reinforced RAC was studied, and it is found that the cumulative amplitude-frequency extremum Np of RAC is larger than that of the test specimens without polypropylene fibers, indicating that the addition of polypropylene fibers limits the crack propagation and increases the cumulative amplitude-frequency extremum representing fracture energy.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138547533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is important to investigate the influence of exposure to elevated temperatures on the fracture mechanics of PC. For this purpose, the PC composed of epoxy as resin, silica sand and crushed basalt as aggregates, and nanoclay as nanofiller is synthesized. The prepared PC is exposed to temperatures of 24, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140°C for two hours, and the residual fracture toughness and fracture energy in mode I and mode II are studied. Three-point bending test is conducted on cracked semi-circular bend specimens with the crack angle of 0° (pure mode I) and 41° (pure mode II) to determine the fracture parameters. Subjecting to high temperatures significantly increased the fracture toughness and fracture energy of the PC. The maximum fracture toughness and fracture energy are obtained after exposure to 120°C and 140°C, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) micrographs are used to investigate the fracture surface of the PC. The results of the present experimental research are useful in understanding the fracture mechanics behavior of PCs in mode I and mode II after being subjected to high temperatures.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":" 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138493759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, reusing or recycling these harmful wastes is quite a significant issue for waste management. Concrete, the most widely used material in the world, is a suitable place to use these wastes. This study used grinding swarf, which had not been used in cementitious composites before, and metal shaving from the CNC milling process. The effects of these wastes on the strength and durability of cement mortars were investigated by using them separately and in hybrid forms. Flowability, fresh unit weight, compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, and high-temperature effect tests were conducted on mortar samples. Although the wastes contributed when used alone, they yielded the highest contribution when combined. When the waste materials were used in a hybrid form, they increased compressive strength, flexural strength, and high-temperature resistance by 29%, 12.98%, and 49.50%, respectively. Metal shavings showed fiber effects, and grinding swarfs improved the strength and durability properties owing to their physical and chemical composition.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"141 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138504817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study utilized a sulphoaluminate-based expansive agent to optimize the mechanical properties of chopped-carbon fibre-reinforced cement-based composites by improving the fibre–matrix interfacial properties. The results of a single-fibre pull-out test showed that the interfacial frictional bond strength improved up to 51% owing to the addition of the expansive agent, whereas the chemical debonding energy remained nearly unchanged. The study then investigated the effects of various concentrations of the expansive agent on the strength of the cement paste containing various lengths and volume fractions of the carbon fibre. The results indicated that benefited from the expansive agent induced high interfacial bond strength, the flexural strength and fluidity of the carbon fibre reinforced cement paste could be further optimized. For example, by utilizing expansive agent, the flexural strength could be further improved by 28% for cement paste containing 0.5% carbon fibre with length of 15mm.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"139 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138504819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shear thickening in this layer affects the concrete pumping significantly. However, very few studies are available in understanding the onset and intensity of shear thickening behavior of the lubrication layer. In this study, the effect of solid volume fraction (SVF), superplasticizer (SP) dosage, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) and hydration on the shear thickening (Continuous and discontinuous) behavior of cementitious suspensions are investigated. Results show that an increase in SVF, reduces the shear thickening intensity in case of cement (OPC) systems whereas the intensity is amplified for systems with fly ash (FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). An increment in the SP dosage results in an early onset and increases the shear thickening intensity, regardless of the binder used. GGBS based systems show the highest shear thickening intensity, followed by OPC and FA based systems. Based on the results, it is evident that the optimization of SP dosage for OPC based systems needs to be carried out based on the structural build-up, while for FA or GGBS based systems, the SP optimization needs to be carried out based on shear thickening behavior with respect to hydration.","PeriodicalId":18113,"journal":{"name":"Magazine of Concrete Research","volume":"142 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138504816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
