  • About defining pouring parameters massive flat foundation slabs

    An approach is proposed to determine the parameters of concreting flat massive foundation slabs - the operational performance of the concrete mix supplier, vehicles and concrete pump, taking into account the limiting factors - the intensity of the supply and placement of the concrete mix and the time of overlapping layers. A scheme for determining the overall coefficient of operational performance is proposed. As a result of timing, the values ​​of the transition coefficient from technical to operational productivity, respectively, for a concrete mixer truck with a volume of 10 m3 from 0.54 to 0.65 and 0.41 for a concrete pump truck with a technical productivity of 120 m3 / h, respectively, were determined when concreting a massive flat foundation slab with a volume of 1500 m3 using concrete mix with grade P4 for workability at a delivery distance of up to 50 m. It is proposed to consider a coefficient that takes into account the decrease in the productivity of an autoconcrete pump due to the variability of the concrete mix supply mode as the main reserve for increasing operational productivity. Schemes are given for determining the duration of concreting a structure without technological interruptions, both with an equal thickness of the stacked layers, and with different schemes for assigning the thicknesses of the stacked layers. The inexpediency of erecting such structures with a layer overlapping time of less than 4 hours is shown. The approach considered in the work can be used to select rational methods for concreting such structures in a continuous pattern or with division into temperature-shrinkage blocks and the construction of working joints. The latter scheme, in connection with the problem of ensuring the quality of the seams and the solidity of the structure, seems to be less preferable.

  • Some technological parameters of overlapping layers when using self-compacting concrete mixtures

    The overlapping time of the layers during the layer-by-layer laying of the concrete mixture during the construction of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures is an important technological parameter of concreting, linking the rate of concreting, the thickness of the laid layers and the design parameters. For traditional concrete mixtures compacted by vibration, this parameter is determined by the persistence of the concrete mixture, taking into account its temperature. When using self-compacting concrete mixtures, the time of overlapping layers, in addition to traditional factors, significantly depends on the period of formation of the "elephant skin". The influence of the overlapping time of the layers on the strength of their adhesion, depending on the properties of the concrete mixture and the method of its laying, was studied. The ultimate tensile strength in bending was used as a criterion for adhesion strength. It has been confirmed that when using a traditional concrete mix compacted by vibration without superplasticizing additives based on polycarboxylate esters, the overlapping time of the layers of 2 hours provides a seam of equal strength with the main body. For self-compacting concrete mixes using vibration when laying subsequent layers after the first, the overlapping time corresponds to the storage index and increases to 6 hours, and when layered without vibration, the adhesion strength decreases by about 20%, 70% and more than 90% with an overlapping time of 2.4 and 6 hours, respectively.

  • On the influence of hardening conditions on the properties of self-compacting concrete

    The results of studies of the influence of various hardening conditions, incl. simulating conditions in the center of massive monolithic structures, for compressive and tensile strength, initial modulus of elasticity, hardening kinetics of self-compacting concrete of classes from B25 to B55. A classification of concretes according to the hardening kinetics is proposed, using as a criterion the time to reach a certain level from the design compressive strength under normal hardening conditions. The invariance of the dependence of the initial modulus of elasticity of the investigated concretes on the compressive strength on the age and type of concrete is established. A certain difference between the dependence "initial modulus of elasticity - ultimate compressive strength" and a lag in the rate of increase in tensile strength from the rate of increase in compressive strength of the studied concretes in the early period of hardening relative to traditional concretes of vibration compaction were revealed. It is shown that in the early period of hardening the studied concretes are characterized by a higher level of the conditional crack resistance criterion E0/Rt, which indicates to a certain extent a higher fragility of the studied concretes in this period.

  • Some questions of the technology of concreting massive foundation slabs using self-compacting concrete mixtures

    Numerous factors that determine the quality of monolithic reinforced concrete massive foundations predetermine the relevance of a thorough study of a set of issues related to the intensity of concreting, the technical capabilities of the contractor, temperature and humidity conditions, the characteristics of the technological properties of the concrete mixture and the kinetics of concrete hardening. To ensure the solidity of the structure, the expediency of determining the thickness of the layer to be laid is justified not only by the length of the working part of the vibrator, as prescribed by the standards, but also by the indicators of the intensity of concreting, determined by the design parameters, temperature and humidity conditions and the capabilities of the worker. The influence of the temperature and humidity conditions of the environment and the recipe features of the concrete mixture on the rational time of overlapping layers is shown. The results of modeling the level of tensile stresses on such recipe-technological factors as the class and kinetics of concrete hardening, temperature conditions and conditions of heat exchange with the environment are given on the example of a temperature-shrinkage block 20x20x2 m. the values ​​of its parameters. An equation is given for relative moisture loss over the thickness of the structure in dry hot weather when self-compacting concrete mixtures are used.

  • Evaluation of some methods for calculating thermal stresses during concreting of massive reinforced concrete foundation slabs

    The relevance of modeling the temperature regime and the stress-strain state in the early period of the construction of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures is shown. Some data are given on the temperature and time parameters of the formation of temperature fields in structures with a surface modulus from less than 1.1 to 2.4 from concrete classes from B25 to B70, both fast and slowly hardening. Based on the results of processing numerous data, the quantitative values ​​of the parameters of the heat release kinetics for the proposed dependence are substantiated. A simplified method for calculating thermal stresses is proposed, based on the proposed and substantiated dependences of concrete properties on its degree of maturity, which are confirmed by numerous experimental data, incl. obtained by other researchers. The calculated values ​​of stresses obtained during the construction of a temperature-shrinkage block 20x20x2 m from concrete of fast and slow hardening classes B25 and B45 were compared with some experimental results and modeling data. The conclusion is made about the inexpediency of using concrete of class B45 due to the high risk of cracking in the period of 1.5 - 3 days. When using concrete of class B25, preference should be given to fast-hardening.

  • On the issue of modeling thermal stresses during concreting of massive reinforced concrete slabs

    The expediency of using modeling using the finite element method to study the influence of certain prescription-technological factors on the resulting temperature fields and temperature stresses during the construction of massive foundation slabs is substantiated. A simplified method for determining thermal stresses based on the reduction of a three-dimensional problem to a one-dimensional one based on the hypothesis of flat sections is considered. The dependence is proposed and the quantitative values ​​of the parameters for calculating the kinetics of heat release of concrete in the temperature-shrinkage block are substantiated. As a result of the implementation of a numerical experiment on the influence of the duration of breaks between overlapping layers, the temperature of the environment and the concrete mixture, the class and kinetics of concrete hardening, and heat transfer parameters, the dependences of the level of tensile stresses on these factors over time were obtained. It is shown that when developing technological regulations for concreting, the determination of technological parameters (the intensity of laying the mixture, the thermal resistance of the formwork, the arrangement of working joints, etc.) is impossible without taking into account the kinetics of concrete hardening, determined by the prescription features of concrete mixtures.

  • On the influence of some technological factors on the quality of concrete of monolithic reinforced concrete structures

    When accepting finished reinforced concrete structures, incl. monolithic, they are subject to requirements for strength, stiffness, crack resistance and durability. The quality of a monolithic reinforced concrete structure depends on the quality of work, the quality of materials, the quality of design solutions and the quality of regulatory documentation. According to SP 70.13330.2012, clause 5.18.1, "when accepting finished concrete and reinforced concrete structures ... you should check ... the quality of concrete for strength, and, if necessary, for frost resistance ...". Particular attention is required for massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures, during the construction of which, due to temperature-shrinkage deformations, it is possible to form an own stress field that exceeds its strength indicators at the stage of formation of the concrete structure, which may result in early cracking with subsequent development of cracks, which will not only negatively affect operational properties of the structure, but in principle can raise the question of the impossibility of its operation. The quality of concrete of a monolithic reinforced concrete structure is determined by both recipe and technological factors, the assessment of the degree of influence of which is an urgent task.

  • On the influence temperature conditions during concreting of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures on the strength of concrete

    Ensuring the regulation of the temperature regime of concrete curing to prevent cracking due to temperature gradients and shrinkage deformations is one of the key points in the construction of massive monolithic reinforced concrete structures. A combination of prescription and technological ones are considered as the main methods for regulating the temperature regime of holding during concreting of massive monolithic structures. The analysis of temperature fields and an assessment of possible cracking of concrete during concreting of grillages of bridge supports, holding of concrete during the erection of structures, in which it was carried out by different methods. It was proposed to clearly stipulate in the normative documents the cases of mandatory tests for concrete frost resistance based on samples taken from the structures. When developing design documentation for standardizing concrete quality indicators, it was proposed that the values of the class of concrete in terms of compressive strength should first of all be assigned according to the condition of ensuring the durability of the structure, depending on the class of the operating environment.
