TY - CONF A1 - Munsch, Sarah Mandy A1 - Strangfeld, Christoph A1 - Kruschwitz, Sabine T1 - Interpretation of NMR signals from partly saturated sandstones N2 - The development of prevention methods and the detection of moisture related damages in buildings and transport infrastructure at an early stage are current issues in the field of non-destructive testing in civil engineering. Especially the subject of partial saturation requires further research since it is more likely to occur than full saturation of the material. In fact, partial saturation in porous media is even more complicated because both fully and partly saturated pores (i.e. pores in which the surfaces are covered with thin water layers) are present. As the non-destructive method nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) enables the measurement and quantification of relative low moisture contents, it is suitable for the investigation of partly saturated porous building materials. Nevertheless, the differentiation between partly and fully saturated pores is still a challenge. Therefore, in this study, we investigate two sandstones types (Bozanov and Schönbrunner sandstone) at various defined saturation states by using NMR. Furthermore, we measure the relative humidities within the samples and compute the water layer thicknesses (WLT) along the pore walls of all pore sizes to calculate the corresponding degree of pore saturation. To finally assign the NMR signals to pore sizes and to differentiate between partly and fully saturated pores, the water content distribution obtained from the WLT calculation is used for calibration of the relaxation-time distribution. In this extended abstract, selected results only for Schönbrunner sandstone are presented.

Auch wenn zur qualitativen Lokalisierung möglicher Schad- und Risikostellen bereits zahlreiche zerstörungsfreie Verfahren in der Praxis Anwendung finden, besteht ein Mangel an quantitativen Verfahren, die auch bei niedrigen Feuchtegehalten sensitiv sind. Eine Methode zur zerstörungsfreien und quantitativen Bestimmung des Feuchtegehaltes und der effektiven Porosität ist die 1H-Kernspinresonzanzmethode (NMR). Da NMR sensitiv für die molekulare Beweglichkeit von Wasserstoffprotonen ist, lassen sich Informationen über die Bindungsform und -stärke sowie der Umgebung (Porengröße und Mineralzusammensetzung) der Wasserstoffprotonen gewinnen. Obwohl es bereits seit über 20 Jahren mobile NMR-Messeräte gibt, wird NMR heutzutage immer noch weitestgehend im Labor eingesetzt. Dies liegt daran, dass sie aufgrund der verwendeten Permanentmagnete schwer sind und nur äußerst geringe Eindringtiefen ermöglichen. In einer derzeit laufenden Forschungsarbeit wird deshalb ein speziell für Bohrkerne entworfener NMR-Tomograph eingesetzt. Mit seiner minimalen Echozeit von 50 µs lässt sich (abhängig von der Oberflächenrelaxivität) Wasser bis in nanometergroßen Poren erfassen. Um die Sensitivität von NMR bei Teilsättigung zu untersuchen, wurden verschiedene Sandsteinproben in Exsikkatoren mit relativen Luftfeuchten im Bereich von 33 % bis 96 % gelagert. Als Referenzen dienen zum einen das NMR-Signal bei Vollsättigung und zum anderen die Porengrößenverteilung aus Quecksilberporosimetriemessungen (MIP). Um die NMR-Sensitivität zu bewerten, wird die Korrelation der NMR-Amplitude mit den gravimetrisch ermittelten Feuchtegehalten sowie ein Vergleich der Porosität aus NMR und MIP betrachtet. Zu beachten ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass sowohl die Reduzierung der Wasserfilmdicke als auch die Verkleinerung von Porengrößen zu einer ähnlichen Verkürzung der T2-Relaxationszeit führt. Als Ausblick wird ein Lösungsansatz vorgestellt, bei dem die NMR-Signale mit der Wasserfilmdickenberechnung basierend auf der relativen Luftfeuchte im Material korreliert werden. T2 - 81.

Particularly, a multi-sensory concept is developed to ensure quality assurance and continuous long-term monitoring on the engineered barriers.

In addition, the ingress of water along cables or at sensor positions is critical for sensors embedded in concrete, as the cable access of the sensor housing is a major weak point. It is therefore advisable to equip wireless high frequent radio frequency identification-based sensors, so called HF RFID sensors (short: RFID), that do not require cable access and thus have a stable and leak-proof sensor housing for long-term monitoring. In this contribution, the results from temperature, moisture and transmitted power monitoring of a AAM and a M2 specimens by means of HF RFID sensor systems are presented.

However, it‘s not easy to avoid prestress loss during the construction or in service time. This problem will influence the function of the structures and worse make our life in danger. Therefore, it‘s important to focus on the topic „bridge monitoring“ to make sure the structural property is "health". This presentation introduces the work which fulfills the research goal - birdge monitoring. A large-scale prestressed concrete bridge model was considered in this work. We obteined various damaged condition due to the different prestressed levels which we can change every time in the experiment. The experimental measurement in two scales were demonstrated by ultrasonics and natural vibration of the bridge.

Heute spielt die digitale Planung im Bauwesen eine immer größere Rolle und Bauvorhaben werden in sogenannten BIM Modellen (Building Information Modelling) geplant.

A small-scale load test was carried out by a 16 ton truck to study the temperature and load influence on the bridge, as well as the performance of the embedded transducers. Ultrasonic coda wave interferometry technique, which has high sensitivity in detecting subtle changes in a heterogeneous medium, was used for the data evaluation and interpretation. The separation of two main influence factors (load effect and temperature variation) is studied, and future applications of wave velocity variation rate Φ for structural health condition estimation are discussed. As a preliminary research stage, the installation method and the performance of the ultrasonic transducer are recognized. Load- and temperature-induced weak wave velocity variations are successfully detected with a high resolution of 10−4%. The feasibility of the whole system for long-term structural health monitoring is considered, and further research is planned.

Several materials have a significant number of micropores in the lower nanometre range leading to a reduction of gas diffusion (Knudsen effect). In the case of partial pore saturation during adsorption, the available pore space is further reduced, as is the gas diffusion. In this study, the influence of partially saturated pores on the Knudsen effect and on the gas diffusion is quantified. Three different pore geometries are investigated (slit, cylindrical and spherical pores) and three different types of pore size distribution, including a broad equal distribution, three narrow normal distributions and two measured distributions of concrete. Besides the intensive computation of the exact pore saturation, a simplified model with low computational requirements is suggested. This study shows that the influence of the water layer thickness on the effective diffusion becomes significant for pore radii below 50 nm and the assumed pore geometry is important. At the end, the overall effect is quantified for an amorphous material with most pore radii below 30 nm. At a moisture level of 50% relative humidity, the effective diffusion is reduced by 35% due to partial saturation.
