TY - RPRT A1 - Strangfeld, Christoph A1 - Maack, Stefan T1 - Grundlagenuntersuchungen zur Anregung von niederfrequentem Ultraschall mit fluidischen Bauteilen N2 - Die zerstörungsfreie Prüfung (ZFP) mittels Ultraschalls wird häufig im Bauwesen eingesetzt, um innere Defekte in Betonstrukturen zu erkennen. Dabei werden Ultraschallwellen im Frequenzbereich von 50 bis 200 kHz genutzt, um Schäden zu entdecken, ohne das Material zu beschädigen. Die meisten derzeit verwendeten Geräte müssen direkten Kontakt mit der Oberfläche haben, was bei großen Bauwerken sehr zeitaufwendig und umständlich ist. Deshalb wird nach alternativen Lösungen gesucht, wie zum Beispiel die luftgekoppelte Ultraschalltechnik, bei der Luft als Übertragungsmedium dient. Solche Geräte könnten die Messzeit um das 50- bis 100-fache verkürzen, was die Inspektion ganzer Strukturen wie Tunnel oder Brücken ermöglichen würde. Dies würde eine zuverlässige Bewertung des Zustands der Infra-struktur erleichtern. Allerdings führt die große Impedanzdifferenz zwischen dem Transducer und der Luft zu erheblichen Energieverlusten, was die Signalstärke schwächt. Geräte, die auf dünnen Membranen oder laserinduzierter Signalanregung basieren, sind oft nicht robust genug für den rauen Baustellenbetrieb. Eine potentielle Lösung sind sogenannte fluidische Oszillatoren, die in der Strömungskontrolle sowie beim Kühlen und Mischen von Flüssigkeiten eingesetzt werden. Sie erzeugen komplett ohne bewegliche Teile schwingende Strömungen, indem sie selbstangeregte Strömungsinstabilitäten nutzen, bei denen der Freistrahl zwischen zwei Kammerwänden durch Feedback-Kanäle hin und her schwingt. Dabei entstehen zeitlich und räumlich schwingende Strömungen am Ausgang. Kleinere Oszillatoren können höhere Frequenzen bis zu 50 kHz erzeugen. Die Frequenz lässt sich durch den Versorgungsdruck steuern, entweder direkt oder über ein Ventil, was die Erzeugung von frequenzmodulierten Signalen ermöglicht. Solche Geräte könnten bei der Untersuchung von Betonelementen eingesetzt werden, um die Dicke und innere Delaminationen zu bestimmen. Die Düsen sind klein, robust und können aus Keramik oder Stahl gefertigt werden, was sie ideal für den Einsatz auf der Baustelle macht. Im Rahmen dieses Projekts wurden fluidische Oszillatoren an der BAM entwickelt, hergestellt und getestet. Dabei wurden die Frequenzinhalte, die Frequenzbandbreite und die Schalldruckamplitude experimentell untersucht. Akustische Messungen mit Mikrophonen sowie erste Tests an Betonproben wurden durchgeführt. Die Düsen wurden geometrisch skaliert, um die Mittenfrequenz und die Schalldruckamplitude zu optimieren. Mit Hilfe von hochfrequenten Druckregeln konnten frequenzmodulierte Anregungssignale (Chirps) erzeugt werden. Die momentan erreichte Frequenzbandbreite von ca. 10 % stellte sich als zu gering heraus für reproduzierbare und statistisch abgesicherte Ultraschall-Messungen durch Beton.

Freecontouring in civil engineering, which allows for entirely new designs, is a significant advantage. Inthe future, lower construction costs are expected with increased construction speeds and decreasingrequired materials and workers. However, architects and civil engineers rely on a certain quality ofexecution to fulfil construction standards. Although several techniques and approaches demonstratethe advantages, quality control during printing is highly challenging and rarely applied. Due to thecontinuous mixing process commonly used in 3D concrete printing, it is impossible to exclude varia-tions in the dry mixture or water content, and a test sample cannot be taken as a representative samplefor the whole structure. Although mortar properties vary only locally, a defect in one layer duringprinting could affect the entire integrity of the whole structure . Therefore, real-time process monitor-ing is required to record and document the printing process.At the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) a new test rig for the additive man-ufacturing of concrete is built. The primary purpose is measuring and monitoring the properties of amortar during the printing process.The following study investigates an approach for calculating yield stress and plastic viscosity based onexperimentally recorded pressure data. The calculations assume that fresh mortar behaves as a Bing-ham fluid and that the Buckingham-Reiner-equation is applicable. A test setup consisting of rigid pipeswith integrated pressure sensors at different positions is utilized.Monitoring the printing process with different sensors is crucial for the quality control of an ongoingprocess.

While being limited to transmission testing in the laboratory for a while, in-situ echo measurements for structural investigations and condition assessment have made their way into practical application in the past 20 years. However, several challenges remain. On one side, there are technical issues as limitations in depth of penetration, resolution and imaging capabilities. On the other side there are still gaps in validation, standardization and certification, which are limiting the applicability in condition/load capacity assessment. This review reports a couple of developments which will help to overcome these issues. This includes technical developments as new devices which are easier to handle on site or giving a much deeper penetration depth (e.g. the LAUS device at BAM) as well as improvements in imaging by hardware update (e. g. air coupled ultrasound or coded signals) or new software (e. g. RTM imaging). To foster the application in real world projects we are as well working on standardization by developing new reference specimen with international partners which will ensure world-wide comparability of ultrasonic and other methods and quality assurance codes. Further, non-destructive methods are being used to update probabilistic models used for the reassessment of existing structures to support the structural engineer’s decisions.

Most Degradation processes relevant to this material, e.g., corrosion, are related to an increased level of material moisture. Therefore, moisture monitoring in reinforced concrete is regarded as a crucial method for structural health monitoring. In this study, passive radio frequency identification (RFID)-based sensors are embedded into the concrete. They are well suited for long-term operation over decades and are well protected against harsh environmental conditions. The energy supply and the data transfer of the humidity sensors are provided by RFID. The sensor casing materials are optimised to withstand the high alkaline environment in concrete, having pH values of more than 12. Membrane materials are also investigated to identify materials capable of enabling water vapour transport from the porous cement matrix to the embedded humidity sensor. By measuring the corresponding relative humidity with embedded passive RFID-based sensors, the cement hydration is monitored for 170 days. Moreover, long-term moisture monitoring is performed for more than 1000 days. The Experiments show that embedded passive RFID-based sensors are highly suitable for long-term structural health monitoring in civil engineering.

In this study, the use of NMR as a tool for pore size characterization was investigated. For our study we used screed and synthetic materials at partial and full saturation. A successful determination could be achieved when having a reference or calibration method, although partly diffusion effects have been registered. Due to these diffusion effects, for the determination of pore size distributions of synthetic materials another NMR device was needed.

T1 - Smart electronic helper for long-term monitoring of bridges and building structures N2 - Increasing traffic volume on the one hand and ageing infrastructure on the other hand have created many new challenges for maintenance and structural health monitoring of roads and bridges. In the past, many bridges and road structures have been neglected, often resulting in traffic congestion, road closure, and increased repair costs. This research is concerned with the development of a system to improve the challenge of maintenance and early detection of damage, particularly moisture penetration and corrosion of steel reinforced concrete components. The objective is to develop a method that will also work after 30 years and longer. Many new IoT solutions are equipped with internal energy storage elements (accumulators or batteries) which are inappropriate here, since most relevant signs of concrete degradation occur after decades, where the functioning of such elements are more than questionable. The presented technology approach uses radio-frequency identification (RFID) and enables connectivity to sensors. It offers the advantage of an passive, completely independent energy supply without any energy storage components. Since the system should be permanently embedded in concrete, it is crucial to develop a long-term stable device which is adapted to the environmental influences of the structure, e.g., long-term resistance in very alkaline environment of pH 13. In numerous experiments, the robustness of the system was tested and evaluated. Various tests with encapsulations to protect the electronics were performed, and for long-term validation different concrete specimens were instrumented with RFID-sensor-systems. Their operating time is now around two years and investigations for signs of fatigue and damage to the encapsulation and the electronics are ongoing.

Technische Einbauten konnten bis in ca. 8 m Tiefe im Bauwerk detektiert werden. Mit Hilfe aus der Geophysik adaptierte Abbildungsverfahren gelang es, einige bisher nicht detektierbare Features sichtbar zu machen. Die Ergebnisse dienen sowohl der Analyse des Versuchsbauwerks als auch der Entwicklung eines Qualitätssicherungssystems für zukünftige reale Verschlussbauwerke.

T1 - RFID sensor systems embedded in concrete – requirements for long–term operation N2 - Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is an important topic for Industry 4.0. More and more systems are embedded in different materials and are connected to each other. To embed sensors for a long time in concrete, an exact preparation is required. In this paper, we identify Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) as promising technology for monitoring of concrete structures. This paper present the concept for long term monitoring, defines the requirements and shows first development steps, for example, the system design, the possibilities of sensor connection, and an encapsulation for embedding in concrete.

For effective quality control, continuous in situ monitoring of interlayer surface properties is required. This study investigated reflection intensity as a method for in situ measurements during the hydration of CEM I mixtures with varying retarder contents. Additional factors influencing the reflection intensity are also examined. Two laser line scanners with different wavelengths were used to track hydration over 72 h. Vicat tests and isothermal calorimetry served as reference methods. Across all the mixtures, the reflection intensity exhibited a repeatable pattern with five different stages. A sharp increase in intensity during the third stage was consistent with the acceleration period of hydration. These findings suggest that reflection intensity measurements could serve as a promising tool for evaluating interlayer bonding in 3D concrete printing.
