T1 - Damage Assessment of Civil Structures Using Wave Propagation Analysis and Transmissibility Functions N2 - A common damage detection method in civil engineering is to monitor dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies and modal shapes, which are directly related to the structural stiffness. However, the discrepancy in measured natural frequencies may result from environmental changes, the soil-structure interaction or effects caused by earthquakes. This makes it difficult to decide whether the local change in structural properties is caused by damage or other factors. To address this challenge and thus improve the current damage detection method, the wave propagation analysis method and the transmissibility relationship were considered. In our study, the wave propagation field in structures was reconstructed by applying the Normalized-Input-Output-Minimization (NIOM) method to vibration recordings. Wave velocities and transmissibility functions were considered as reference values for the damage indicators. This paper demonstrates the evaluation of local property changes in two examples of large-scale structures: a 14-story RC building and a 64 m long pedestrian bridge. The proposed damage indicators show a clear correspondence to structural changes.

To reduce these traffic disruptions and maintenance costs, it is important to reduce the work that is needed for cleaning and maintenance of stainless steel components in road tunnels. One possibility is the identification and utilization of better suited alternatives to the commonly used austenitic stainless steels AISI 316L and AISI 316Ti. Thus, a field exposure study was carried out in different road tunnels throughout Germany to qualify different duplex and lean duplex stainless steels for tunnel constructions. The proposed scientific poster gives an overview of results after the first three years of exposure in three different road tunnels. Samples of different stainless steels were placed in different areas of the tunnel – at lane height and at the ceiling. Some samples were exposed under sheltered conditions. Pit depths were evaluated on the free surface and in crevice areas after each year of exposure. The investigations show that duplex stainless steels have a comparable or even better corrosion resistance than austenitic steels in tunnel atmospheres.

T1 - Entwicklung und Charakterisierung von alkalisch aktivierten Mörteln für die Betoninstandsetzung - Robustheits- und Dauerhaftigkeitsbetrachtungen N2 - Für die flächige Instandsetzung von Stahlbetonkonstruktionen kommen nahezu ausschließlich zementgebundene Systeme mit hohem Zementgehalt zum Einsatz (1). Bereits 2008 war die Zementproduktion für 5% des weltweiten, anthropogenen CO2-Ausstoßes verantwortlich (2). Um die prozessbedingten CO2-Emissionen zu senken, wird der Zement bereits durch gewisse Mengen an Sekundärrohstoffen wie Flugasche, Silicastaub oder Hüttensandmehl (Hochofenschlacke) substituiert. Das Potenzial für weitere Modifikationen ist inzwischen begrenzt (3). Zudem ist eine hohe Lebensdauer der Konstruktionen in vielen Anwendungsbereichen nur bedingt realisierbar. Spätestens mit Erreichen der geplanten Nutzungsdauer müssen Stahlbetonkonstruktionen mit zementgebundenen Systemen instandgesetzt werden, was im ökonomischen und ökologischen Sinne keine nachhaltige Lösung darstellt. Die Verwendung neuer Baustoffe wie alkalisch aktivierte Mörtel hält sich bisher in Grenzen (4), sodass die Akzeptanz durch praxisnahe Forschung adressiert werden muss. Vorangegangene Forschungsergebnisse zeigen, dass alkalisch aktivierte Bindemittel vielversprechende technische Eigenschaften besitzen. So zeigen sich im Vergleich zu herkömmlichem Portlandzement ein ausgesprochen wirkungsvoller Verbund zu Stahl und Zementmörtel (5), (6), eine hohe chemische Beständigkeit sowie ein Erfolg versprechendes Abwitterungsverhalten bei Frost-Tau-Wechseln (7). Mit diesen Eigenschaften können alkalisch aktivierte Mörtel einen erheblichen Beitrag zur dauerhaften Betoninstandsetzung leisten und somit durch die verringerten CO2-Emmissionen dem Prinzip des nachhaltigen Bauens gerecht werden. Wichtig für die Produktion im größeren Maßstab ist die Verfügbarkeit der möglichen Reststoffe, um eine CO2-positivere Bilanz abzubilden. Im Zuge des Forschungsvorhabens sollen Rezepturen für Instandsetzungsprodukte entworfen werden, die auf alkalisch aktivierte industrielle Reststoffe zurückgreifen und die Anforderungen an konventionelle Instandsetzungsprodukte erfüllen. Hierzu wurden potenzielle Ausgangs-stoffe mit Natriumcarbonat aktiviert und die Verarbeitbarkeit der Leime sowie die Druckfestigkeiten nach sieben Tagen verglichen. Hüttensandmehl reagiert ausreichend mit diesem Aktivator, was sich mit Ergebnissen von (8) und (9) deckt. Es werden 〖CO〗_3^(2-)-Ionen in das System eingebaut, was zu einer anfänglichen Erstarrung des Gefüges durch die Bildung von Carbonaten (Calcit und Hydrotalcit) führt. Nach einer längeren dormanten Phase bilden sich zusätzlich Hydratphasen, die die Festigkeit weiter erhöhen. Weiterhin ist die chemische Zusammensetzung der Schlacken für die Erhärtung und die späteren Eigenschaften von großer Bedeutung (10), (11), was mit einer Parameterstudie im laufenden Jahr an natriumcarbonataktivierten Schlacken näher betrachtet werden soll. Erkenntnisse aus vergleichenden Versuchen durch (12) bestätigen die Einflussnahme der chemischen Zusammensetzung. Die übrigen Reststoffe konnten mit anderen Aktivatoren (z. B. Natriumsilicat und -hydroxid) zu einer Reaktion angeregt werden. Im Hinblick auf die Akzeptanz der alkalisch aktivierten Bindemittel stellen diese Aktivatoren jedoch bei der Herstellung höhere technische Anforderungen an das Personal und die verwendeten Geräte im Vergleich zur konventionellen Beton- und Mörteltechnik. Die Aktivierung mittels Alkalicarbonaten ermöglicht die Herstellung von Beton bzw. Mörtel nach dem üblichen „just add water“-Prinzip (13). Aktuell wird unter Einbindung einer studentischen Abschlussarbeit eine Rezeptur mit Hüttensandmehl hinsichtlich der Frisch- und Festeigenschaften charakterisiert und einer Referenzmischung – basierend auf Portlandzement – gegenübergestellt. Hieraus resultierende Ergebnisse sollen neben den Erkenntnissen aus den Vorversuchen zur Konferenz vorgestellt und ein Ausblick auf die weitere Forschungsarbeit gegeben werden.

Areas of corroding reinforcement steel can be located in a non-destructive manner by means of this procedure. Half‐cell potential measurements are used in order to detect chloride‐induced corrosion. However, it is not recommended in order to assess the risk of carbonation‐induced corrosion. For this purpose, determining the carbonation depth and the concrete cover appears more appropriate. The content of this specification exclusively refers to the application of mobile, local variable reference electrodes, which are only placed on the concrete surface while measuring. The technique distinguishes itself thereby from the range of corrosion monitoring systems with stationary installed reference electrodes and sensor systems, respectively, whereby it is possible to continuously track measurements within the area of the installed electrodes.

T1 - Introduction to DIN 4871: Qualification of NDT Personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT‐CE) N2 - Recently, non-destructive testing in civil engineering (NDT-CE), in particular of concrete components, has successfully mastered the leap from research to practice. Several methods have been established for field inspections to determine the concrete cover of reinforcement or to estimate the compressive strength as well as other parameters related to the concrete material. In addition, the application of non-destructive testing is indispensable, if information about the inner structure - such as the location of rebars and tendon ducts or the damage-related condition assessment to detect grouting defects, honeycombs, delamination, or corrosion - is required. Besides the selection of a suitable NDT method and an appropriate inspection system, the reliability of the results depends largely on the person who applies the non-destructive inspection technique and evaluates the inspection results. To ensure a high quality of non-destructive concrete evaluation as well as to keep the uncertainty caused by the inspection personnel to a minimum, structured, consistent, and regulated theoretical as well as practical training of inspection personnel is essential. To close this gap, the subcommittee of education and training (UA-A) within the committee for NDT-CE of the German Society for Non-Destructive Testing (DGZfP) has been reactivated in 2018 to establish uniform training standards for non-destructive concrete inspections in the long term. The subcommittee consists of scientists, practitioners, authorities, and clients. So far, the national standard DIN 4871 “Non-destructive testing - Qualification of NDT personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT-CE)” was developed. This standard considers the civil-industry-specifics, for example, that standards for NDT of concrete, as well as related product standards with a few exceptions, still do not exist at the moment. Within this presentation, the concept, the connection to ISO 9712 and other standards as well as an overview of the recently developed German standard DIN 4871 will be presented.

Galvanic currents flow between the zinc anode and the steel reinforcement due to the potential difference that is in the range of a few hundred mV. The ion distribution was studied on two steel reinforced concrete specimens admixed with 3 wt.% chloride/wt. cement and galvanically protected by a surface applied EZ-anode. On both specimens, a zinc anode was embedded and glued to the concrete surface by a geo-polymer-based chloride-free binder. At one specimen, the EZ-anode was operated for 2,5 years, the EZ-anode at the other specimen was not electrically connected to the reinforcement, this specimen serves as a reference. Both specimens have been stored under identical conditions. The ion distribution between the anode (EZ-anode) and cathode (steel reinforcement) was studied by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) after 7 months, 12 months, and 2,5 years. Results of the LIBS studies on the specimen with activated EZ-anode after 7 months, 12 months, and 2,5 years and of the reference specimen after 2,5 years are reported. Results show that diffusion of ions contributes to the changes in the ion distribution but migration, especially of chlorides towards the EZ-anode is significant despite the weak electric field – several hundred millivolts - generated by the galvanic current. Results show that chloride ions accumulate near the zinc-anode as in water-insoluble zinc-hydroxy chlorides - Simonkolleit.

T1 - Liquid cargo effect on load transfer under orthogonal accelerations N2 - A methodology is proposed for the experimental analysis of the liquid cargo effect under combined orthogonal accelerations. To simultaneously subject the vehicle-cargo system to longitudinal and lateral accelerations, the vehicle is set obliquely on a tilt table. The experimental outputs suggest that there is a significant effect of the liquid cargo on the lateral load transfer ratio (LTR), on the order of 20%, which is attributable to the resulting shifting of the liquid cargo’s centre of gravity. That is, the peak LTR values due exclusively to sloshing were not significant, in such a way that the liquid cargo would only pose a safety risk under a steady acceleration input. Also, the inverse of the product of the magnitude of the acceleration times the free surface length, correlates with the liquid cargo effect. That is, the magnitude of the input acceleration is not fully determinant for greater load transfers.

T1 - Screening-tests on the susceptibility to spalling of two ordinary concretes N2 - Investigating the spalling behaviour of a concrete mixture using large scale members is complex and expensive. Thus, the susceptibility of concrete to spalling is investigated by means of fire tests on small scale specimens. However, the reduction of the fire exposed surface increases the influence of boundary effects. Macrocracking and the water loss via the lateral surfaces reduce the impact of the thermomechanical and thermohydraulic damage mechanisms and therefore, lower the risk of spalling. Thus, the influence of different restraints on the spalling behaviour of intermediate scaled specimens (Ø=0.47 m; h=0.29 m) was investigated for two ordinary concrete mixtures. Both mixtures had the same composition except the type of aggregate. One mixture contained only quartzitic aggregates, whereas the other mixture was made with basalt grit as coarse aggregates. Applied steel rings restrained the thermal expansion of the specimen and prevented the loss of water, whereas applied steel sheet primarily reduced the loss of water during the fire test. Additionally, the fire exposed surface of one specimen of each mixture was pre-dried under controlled climate conditions and fire tested with applied steel rings. The results show a higher spalling volume for the ring restrained specimens compared to the other covering types. Further, the pre-dried boundary zone leads to delayed and decreased occurrence of spalling compared to the non-dried specimens for the concrete with quartzitic aggregates and to a prevention of spalling for the mixture with basalt aggregates. Additionally, the results show that the influence of the thermomechanical behaviour of the coarse aggregates increases with increasing restraint. The restrained conditions of the specimens with applied steel ring are comparable to the conditions in the centre of a large scale member. This test series is a further step for possible concept of steel ring restraint concrete specimens as “screening-tests” in upcoming projects.

T1 - Carbonation rate of alkali-activated concretes and high-volume SCM concretes: a literature data analysis by RILEM TC 281-CCC N2 - The current understanding of the carbonation and the prediction of the carbonation rate of alkali-activated concretes is complicated inter alia by the wide range of binder chemistries used and testing conditions adopted. To overcome some of the limitations of individual studies and to identify general correlations between mix design parameters and carbonation resistance, the RILEM TC 281-CCC ‘Carbonation of Concrete with Supplementary Cementitious Materials’ Working Group 6 compiled and analysed carbonation data for alkali-activated concretes and mortars from the literature. For comparison purposes, data for blended Portland cement-based concretes with a high percentage of SCMs (≥ 66% of the binder) were also included in the database. The analysis indicates that water/CaO ratio and water/binder ratio exert an influence on the carbonation resistance of alkali-activated concretes; however, these parameters are not good indicators of the carbonation resistance when considered individually. A better indicator of the carbonation resistance of alkali-activated concretes under conditions approximating natural carbonation appears to be their water/(CaO + MgOeq + Na2Oeq + K2Oeq) ratio, where the subscript ‘eq’ indicates an equivalent amount based on molar masses. Nevertheless, this ratio can serve as approximate indicator at best, as other parameters also affect the carbonation resistance of alkali-activated concretes. In addition, the analysis of the database points to peculiarities of accelerated tests using elevated CO2 concentrations for low-Ca alkali-activated concretes, indicating that even at the relatively modest concentration of 1% CO2, accelerated testing may lead to inaccurate predictions of the carbonation resistance under natural exposure conditions.

A1 - Gluth, Gregor T1 - Kinetics of Sulfide Oxidation in alkaline solutions studied by X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy N2 - The oxidation of sulfur in aqueous solutions is an important process in several geochemical and industrial contexts. In concrete technology, it is particularly relevant for the protection of steel reinforcement in slag cement-based concretes, as the presence of sulfides affects the passivation of the steel and corrosion initiation in the presence of chlorides. However, the knowledge about the kinetics of sulfide oxidation in alkaline solutions, such as concrete pore solutions, is incomplete. To address this issue, we prepared solutions with 0.80 M NaOH, and nominally 10, 100 and 350 mM HS−, respectively, and followed the evolution of the sulfur species during bubbling with oxygen-containing gas (concentration 100% or 22%) using X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy at the sulfur K-edge. Polysulfide, thiosulfate, sulfite and sulfate were identified and quantified via linear combination fitting of the spectra, using previously measured standards. A preliminary analysis of the results shows that the initial rate constant of sulfide oxidation depends strongly on the HS− concentration, while it less strongly depending on the oxygen concentration, in line with previous results for lower pH values. Approaches to fit the data to obtain the rate constants of all relevant reactions will be discussed.

T1 - Multi-Sensor measurements on a large-scale bridge model N2 - This contribution introduces an investigation of a large-scale prestressed concrete bridge model (“BLEIB” structure at the BAM-TTS open air test site) by means of on-site cooperative measurements. This bridge has an external post-tensioning system and has been instrumented with the ultrasonic transducers, temperature sensors and optical fibers for Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS). Our experiment was designed to test the suitability of the novel 6C sensors developed within the framework of the GIOTTO project – the IMU50. The IMU50 sensor enables vibration measurements in translation along three axes and rotation around three axes. The geophone sensors were considered for complementary measurements of vertical velocity response. In the experiment, several perturbations were achieved by controlling the external influence factors such as loading and prestressing changes. The aim of the integrated measurement strategy was to fully observe the results of the condition change and to verify the effectiveness of multiple sensors for bridge monitoring. T2 - 5.

A new test method for assessing the susceptibility of prestressing steels to hydrogen-induced stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is presented, which serves the demands of a lower scattering compared with the present standard. Moreover, the ability to differentiate between high susceptible and low susceptible prestressed wires is possible, modifying the method by hydrogen charging and surface preparation.

A1 - Rohleder, R. A1 - Hothan, Sascha T1 - European test standard intumescent coatings applied to steel tension bars with solid section N2 - Intumescent coatings are used in civil engineering to improve the fire resistance of steel constructions. Due to the thin coating thickness and the profile-following application, the architectural appearance of the steel structure can be preserved. EN 13381-8 provides regulations to determine the contribution to the fire resistance of intumescent coatings applied to steel beams and columns. The scope of this standard excludes tension members and steel members with solid sections. For products that have already been successfully tested and assessed on beams and columns, EN 13381-10 offers the possibility based on unloaded fire tests to extend the scope of application of intumescent coatings to tension bars with solid sections. This approach contradicts the national safety level in Germany, where mechanically loaded testing is mandatory. Therefore, a new part of the test standard series EN 13381 is currently developed to enable the application of intumescent coatings on steel tension bars with solid section based on mechanically loaded fire tests. BAM has already carried out numerous fire tests on loaded steel tension members with intumescent coatings. Currently, in the BAM research project FIRESTEMIC, the influence of the steel bar orientation and the profile type on the thermal performance of intumescent coatings are investigated. Both questions concerning the thermal protection ability of intumescent coatings were analysed based on three different test sets, which were carried out in the tension furnace (Fig. 1a). The fire exposure corresponds to the standard temperature-time curve according to EN 1363-1. This paper summarises the main findings from the fire tests conducted in the FIRESTEMIC project. The results serve as an experimental background for the proposal of the new standard. Regarding the bar orientation, a new test setup was developed and proposed for the new standard. The two tested commercial water-based intumescent coatings with applied dry film thickness from 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm showed only a slight dependence on the bar orientation. In terms of the steel profile type, circular and rectangular solid sections with identical section factor and applied dry film thickness were tested. It was observed that the circular solid bars with diameter 30 mm heat up faster compared to the solid rectangular bars with dimension 30×30 mm (Fig. 1b). Also at larger steel bars, i.e. diameter 40 mm and dimension 40×40 mm, the same trend occurred. Thus, it is recommended for the new test standard to allow a transfer of the test results from circular to rectangular solid sections. In addition, the paper will describe and explain the test and assessment procedure proposed for the newly developed standard.

Die Anwendung von Zuggliedern aus Carbon ist durch die außergewöhnlich gute Ermüdungs- sowie hohe Zugfestigkeit des Werkstoffs motiviert. Ferner ergibt sich gegenüber Stahl eine deutliche Reduzierung des Querschnitts. Perspektivisch sollen damit Stahlzugglieder im Netzwerkbogenbrückenbau ersetzt werden. Durch die Materialsubstitution werden Ressourcen nicht nur beim Zugglied selbst, sondern auch am Gesamttragwerk der Brücke eingespart. Da zum Tragverhalten von Carbonzuggliedern im Brandfall bislang keine Erkenntnisse vorliegen, sollen mit Hilfe von Bauteilbrandversuchen die Versagensmechanismen sowie die grundsätzliche Gleichwertigkeit gegenüber konventionellen Stahlhängern untersucht werden. Der Beitrag beschreibt die Durchführung und die Ergebnisse von Brandversuchen an mechanisch belasteten Carbonzuggliedern. Die realmaßstäblichen Versuche werden am unikalen Zugbauteil-prüfofen der BAM im Mai 2022 durchgeführt. Das Versuchsprogramm umfasst vier Carbonzugglieder mit kreisrunden Querschnitten in zwei verschiedenen Durchmessern, ⌀36 mm und ⌀51 mm. Aus Gründen der Vergleichbarkeit erfolgt die Brandbeanspruchung nach Einheits-Temperaturzeitkurve (ETK). Während des Brandversuches wird die axiale Prüfkraft von 750 kN bzw. 1500 kN bis zum Eintreten des Probenversagens konstant gehalten. Zusätzlich werden die Längsverformung sowie die Bauteil- und Brandraumtemperaturen aufgezeichnet. In einem Vorversuch an einem unbelasteten Bauteilabschnitt eines Carbonzuggliedes konnte das Brand- und Erwärmungsverhalten des Verbundmaterials untersucht werden. Dabei zeigten sich Makrorisse und eine Zersetzung der Kunststoffmatrix sowie eine hohe Temperaturbeständigkeit der Kohlenstofffasern. Durch das Fehlen der schützenden Matrix reagierten die Carbonfasern sensibel auf Querbeanspruchung. Dies führte zu einem Bruch und Ablösen der oberflächennahen Fasern.

Dabei müssen unter anderem die Gefahren von nichtelektrischen Zündquellen betrachtet werden, zu denen auch die mechanischen Schlagvorgänge gehören.

A1 - Zakel, S. A1 - Krietsch, Arne T1 - Requirements for a Hybrid Dust-Gas-Standard: Influence of the Mixing Procedure on Safety Characteristics of Hybrid Mixtures N2 - While developing a standard for the determination of safety characteristics for hybrid mixtures the authors discovered, that, beside the ignition source, the mixing procedure is the main difference between the single-phase standards for dusts and gases. The preparation of hybrid mixtures containing a flammable gas and a flammable dust in the 20 L-sphere can be realized in different ways. Either the flammable gas is filled only in the sphere or only in the dust container or in both. In previous works, almost always the first method is applied, without giving any information on the accuracy of the gas mixtures. In this work the accuracy of the gas mixtures and the results of the tests applying two methods of mixing were studied. No significant influence of the mixing method itself on the safety characteristics explosion pressure pex and the normalized rate of pressure rise (K-value) was found. Obviously, homogenization of the gas mixtures can be obtained sufficiently by the turbulence that is caused during the injection from the dust container into the explosion chamber within a short time. However, the mixing procedure has a great influence on the accuracy of the gas amount of the mixtures obtained. Without modifying the 20 L-sphere by installing precise pressure sensors, assuring its tightness and performing gas analysis, it must be expected, that the accuracy of the gas mixtures is very low. This has a significant influence on the measured safety characteristics and may lead to unsafe facilities or unnecessary expensive safety measures.

T1 - Reinforcement bar and reinforcement bar splicing systems under impact loading – Experimental tests and test specification N2 - Reinforced concrete is a widely used material for power generation structures, where load scenarios like impact loadings need to be considered. In this context mechanical splicing systems for the connection of reinforcement bars are of specific interest and impact resistance for the splicing systems has to be verified. High speed tensile tests need to be performed on splicing systems for reinforcement bars to confirm the capability of the coupler to resist impact loading. Furthermore, the ability of the reinforcement steel to dissipate energy by ductile behaviour with pronounced plastic strains should be confirmed by these tests. During the last decades comprehensive experiences were developed at BAM performing high speed tensile tests on reinforcement bars as well as on several splicing systems. For the lack of available standards defining these tests in detail an appropriate test procedure was developed and continuously optimized during this period at BAM. The test procedure is partially based on testing principles adapted from available standards. The main intention behind this test procedure is to perform high-speed tensile tests with a specific constant strain rate generated at the specimen. Furthermore, main objective was to establish a procedure to guarantee the comparability of test results for different diameter of reinforcement as well as for different types of couplers. Besides the pure execution of the high-speed tensile tests, the test specification also declares how to evaluate the measurements and the test results. Finally, some typical results will be presented in this contribution.

In-situ parameters are collected and gaps between boreholes or other direct tests are filled with information. However the limited resolution has to be considered and the indirect geophysical parameters have to be translated into something geotechnically useful. Moreover, the limitations have to be evaluated when including geophysical data into geostatistical models. If done properly, the use of geophysics will help in an efficient and effective site characterization. A comprehensive overview on existing geophysical (mostly seismic) methods is given as well as information on the calibration of geophysical against geotechnical parameters, pitfalls and limitations and some hints how to include these data into geostatistical/geotechnical models.

T1 - Acid resistance of alkali-activated materials: Recent advances and research needs N2 - Cementitious materials are frequently applied in environments in which they are exposed to acid attack, e.g., in sewer systems, biogas plants, and agricultural/food-related industries. Alkali-activated materials (AAMs) have repeatedly been shown to exhibit a remarkably high resistance against attack by organic and inorganic acids and, thus, are promising candidates for the construction and the repair of acid-exposed structures. However, the reaction mechanisms and processes affecting the acid resistance of AAMs have just recently begun to be understood in more detail. The present contribution synthesises these advances and outlines potentially fruitful avenues of research. The interaction between AAMs and acids proceeds in a multistep process wherein different aspects of deterioration extend to different depths, complicating the overall determination of acid resistance. Partly due to this indistinct definition of the ‘depth of corrosion’, the effects of the composition of AAMs on their acid resistance cannot be unambiguously identified to date. Important parallels exist between the deterioration of low-Ca AAMs and the weathering/corrosion of minerals and glasses (dissolution-reprecipitation mechanism). Additional research requirements relate to the deterioration mechanism of high-Ca AAMs; how the character of the corroded layer influences the rate of deterioration; the effects of shrinkage and the bond between AAMs and substrates.

T1 - Method for predicting dynamic loads for a health monitoring system for subway tracks N2 - This paper presents a method for processing acceleration data registered on a train and determining the health condition of a subway’s substructure. The acceleration data was converted into a dynamic deformation by applying a transfer function defined using the Empirical Mode Decomposition Method. The transfer function was constructed using data produced on an experimental rig, and it was scaled to an existing subway system. The equivalent deformation improved the analysis of the dynamic loads that affect the substructure of the subway tracks because it is considered the primary load that acts on the track and substructure. The acceleration data and the estimated deformations were analyzed with the Continues Wavelet Transform. The equivalent deformation data facilitated the application of a health monitoring system and simplified the development of predictive maintenance programs for the subway or railroad operators. This method better identified cracks in the substructure than using the acceleration data.

T1 - Auswirkung von passivem Zwang auf das Abplatzverhalten von Beton im Brandfall N2 - Der diesjährige Beitrag zeigt den Einfluss ausgewählter Versuchsrandbedingungen auf das Abplatzverhalten von Normalbeton im kleinskaligen Brandversuch. Im Rahmen der Untersuchungen wurde die Abplatzneigung von acht zylindrischen Betonprüfkörpern der Maße Ø47 cm x 29 cm aus Normalbeton analysiert. Vier Prüfkörper wurden aus Normalbeton mit quarzitischer Gesteinskörnung hergestellt, wohingegen die grobe Gesteinskörnung (>2 mm) der anderen vier Prüfkörper durch Basaltsplitt ersetzt wurde. Neben der Art der groben Gesteinskörnung wurden zusätzlich ausgewählte Versuchsrandbedingungen variiert. Dies umfasste zum einen die Vorlagerung der Prüfkörper bei verschiedenen Umgebungsfeuchten und zum anderen die Ummantelung der Prüfkörper mit zwei Ringen aus Stahl bzw. einem durchgehenden Stahlblech. Die Ummantelung der Prüfkörper mit Stahlringen im Brandversuch führt zu einer Behinderung der thermischen Ausdehnung der Prüfkörper und zum Aufbau thermomechanischer Zwangsdruckspannungen. Diese Zwangsdruckspannungen werden maßgeblich von der thermischen Ausdehnung der verwendeten Gesteinskörnung beeinflusst. Zusätzlich wird die Feuchteabgabe über die Mantelfläche behindert. Der Einsatz des Stahlblechs reduziert lediglich die Abgabe der Feuchtigkeit über die Mantelfläche und induziert vernachlässigbare Zwangsdruckspannungen im Beton. Die Brandbeanspruchung der Prüfkörper erfolgte einseitig nach der Einheits-Temperaturzeitkurve (ETK) über einen Zeitraum von 60 Minuten. Mit Hilfe eines Laser Scanners wurden vergleichende 3D-Messungen der brandbeanspruchten Oberfläche vor und nach dem Brandversuch durchgeführt. Aus diesen Messungen konnten das Abplatzvolumen, die Abplatztiefenverteilung und die maximale Abplatztiefe ermittelt werden. Während des Brandversuchs wurde die Temperaturverteilung im Prüfkörper mittels fünf eingebetteter Mantelthermoelemente in verschiedenen Tiefen bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Abplatzungen an der brandbeanspruchten Oberfläche infolge der Prüfkörperummantelung mit Stahlringen bzw. Stahlblech zunehmen. Bei einer Ummantelung mit Stahlringen mit gleichzeitiger Vortrocknung der Betonrandzone platzt der Prüfkörper mit quarzitischer Gesteinskörnung ab, wohingegen der Prüfkörper mit basaltischer Gesteinskörnung keine Abplatzungen aufweist. Dies wird auf die unterschiedliche Ausprägung der thermomechanischen Schädigung infolge der unterschiedlichen thermischen Ausdehnungskoeffizienten von Quarzkies und Basalt zurückgeführt. Die Ergebnisse der Brandprüfserie zeigen, dass die Variation der Prüfrandbedingungen bei Beibehaltung der Prüfkörpergröße einen maßgeblichen Einfluss auf das Abplatzverhalten haben. Die Randbedingungen sind daher bei kleinskaligen Brandversuchen, die zukünftig als „Screening-Tests“ ersatzweise für kostenintensive Bauteilversuche verwendet werden sollen, zu berücksichtigen.

T1 - Experimental investigation of the consequences of acetylene pressure cylinder failure under fire conditions N2 - Acetylene pressure cylinders are widely used in the industrial sector for welding, flame cutting, or heating. Sometimes during work, not only with acetylene cylinders, fires occur and in this case the risk of destruction increases and the behavior of such an exposed cylinder is unpredictable. The purpose of this study is to identify those critical conditions when acetylene cylinders burst and explode in fires. In the present study, acetylene cylinders were exposed to fire conditions. For this purpose, a woodpile as a source of fire was chosen, tested, and evaluated. In addition to the fire condition, this option guaranteed reproducibility and similar conditions for all tests. The individual cylinders were equipped with thermocouples measuring the shell temperature, and half of them were prepared in order to measure the temperatures inside the cylinder. An important factor was the measurement of the amount of pressure that was achieved during the destruction of the cylinder. For this purpose, a pressure transducer was attached to the outlet of the cylinder valve. Exposed to direct fire, they can explode in 10 min, which was confirmed. The critical pressure of 40 bar has been reached in 6 min, followed by destruction after 7 min in fire. Cylinders with internal thermocouples were destroyed when lower pressure was achieved. This confirms the fact that any change of the pressure cylinder affects the original properties. After the tests, the fragments of the selected cylinders were subjected to material tests. The results obtained in these tests are the main source of information for understanding the behavior of acetylene cylinders in fire and the possibility of increasing the safety of intervening rescue services in an emergency.

This regulation severely limits the use of alkali-sensitive aggregates by requiring that their suitability be verified by certified inspectors using newly developed AAR concrete tests that involve the external supply of alkali. This has led to a significant limitation in the number of aggregates usable for concrete pavements. A novel AAR avoidance strategy is now being pursued, which aims to enable the use of borderline alkali-sensitive aggregates through the application of an internal water-repellent treatment. The addition of water repellents during concrete production should significantly reduce the ingress of water and external de-icing salts into the concrete pavement, thus reducing the potential for AAR damage. This paper presents the results of laboratory tests to assess the suitability of this new AAR prevention strategy. Representative, highly AAR-susceptible road paving concrete made with an alkali-sensitive greywacke and various water repellents were used as the basis for these experiments. The tests for concrete suitability included determining the conventional fresh and hardened concrete properties as well as concrete prism tests with external alkaline supply. Building on these results, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) analyses of de-icing-salt intrusion as well as microscopic examinations for verification of the AAR characteristics were carried out. The results of the AAR concrete tests with external alkaline supply support the conclusion that, when hydrophobic agents containing a suitable active ingredient are used, the AAR damage process in road paving concrete can be sufficiently prevented.

A1 - Thöns, Sebastian T1 - Determination of structural and damage detection system influencing parameters on the value of information N2 - A method to determine the influencing parameters of a structural and damage detection system is proposed based on the value of Information analysis. The value of information analysis utilizes the Bayesian pre-posterior decision theory to quantify the value of damage detection system for the structural integrity management during service life. First, the influencing parameters of the structural system, such as deterioration type and rate are introduced for the performance of the prior probabilistic system model. Then the influencing parameters on the damage detection system performance, including number of sensors, sensor locations, measurement noise, and the Type-I error are investigated. The preposterior probabilistic model is computed utilizing the Bayes’ theorem to update the prior system model with the damage indication information. Finally, the value of damage detection system is quantified as the difference between the maximum utility obtained in pre-posterior and prior analysis based on the decision tree analysis, comprising structural probabilistic models, consequences, as well as benefit and costs analysis associated with and without monitoring. With the developed approach, a case study on a statically determinate Pratt truss bridge girder is carried out to validate the method. The analysis shows that the deterioration rate is the most sensitive parameter on the effect of relative value of information over the whole service life. Furthermore, it shows that more sensors do not necessarily lead to a higher relative value of information; only specific sensor locations near the highest utilized components lead to a high relative value of information; measurement noise and the Type-I error should be controlled and be as small as possible. An optimal sensor employment with highest relative value of information is found. Moreover, it is found that the proposed method can be a powerful tool to develop optimal service life maintenance strategies—before implementation—for similar bridges and to optimize the damage detection system settings and sensor configuration for minimum expected Costs and risks.

T1 - Correlation of Load-Bearing Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Members and Velocity Changes of Coda Waves N2 - The integral collection of information such as strains, cracks, or temperatures by ultrasound offers the best prerequisites to monitor structures during their lifetime. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed which uses the collected information in the coda of ultrasonic signals to infer the condition of a structure. This approach is derived from component tests on a reinforced concrete beam subjected to four-point bending in the lab at Ruhr University Bochum. In addition to ultrasonic measurements, strain of the reinforcement is measured with fiber optic sensors. Approached by the methods of moment-curvature relations, the steel strains serve as a reference for velocity changes of the coda waves. In particular, a correlation between the relative velocity change and the average steel strain in the reinforcement is derived that covers 90% of the total bearing capacity. The purely empirical model yields a linear function with a high level of accuracy (R 2 =0.99, R2=0.99, RMSE≈90μ RMSE≈90μ strain).

T1 - Introduction to DIN 4871: Qualification of NDT Personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT-CE) N2 - Recently, non-destructive testing in civil engineering (NDT-CE), in particular of concrete components, has successfully mastered the leap from research to practice. Several methods have been established for field inspections to determine the concrete cover of reinforcement or to estimate the compressive strength as well as other parameters related to the concrete material. In addition, the application of nondestructive testing is indispensable, if information about the inner structure - such as the location of rebars and tendon ducts or the damage-related condition assessment to detect grouting defects, honeycombs, delamination, or corrosion - is required. Besides the selection of a suitable NDT method and an appropriate inspection system, the reliability of the results depends largely on the person who applies the non-destructive inspection technique and evaluates the inspection results. To ensure a high quality of non-destructive concrete evaluation as well as to keep the uncertainty caused by the inspection personnel to a minimum, structured, consistent and regulated theoretical as well as practical training of inspection personnel is essential. To close this gap, the subcommittee of education (UA-A) within the committee for NDT-CE of the German Society for Nondestructive Testing (DGZfP) has been reactivated in 2018 to establish uniform training standards for nondestructive concrete inspections in the long term. The subcommittee consists of scientists, practitioners, authorities, and clients. So far, the national standard DIN 4871 “Non-destructive testing - Qualification and Certification of NDT personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT-CE)” was developed and is currently under review. This standard considers the civil-industry-specifics, for example, that standards for NDT of concrete, as well as related product standards with a few exceptions, still do not exist at the moment. Within this presentation, the concept, the connection to ISO 9712 and other standards as well as an overview of the developed German standard DIN 4871 will be presented.

Um die Abbildung der Ultraschalldaten von komplexen Betonstrukturen zu verbessern, haben wir die Reverse-Time Migration (RTM) aus der Seismik auf die zerstörungsfreie Prüfung im Bauwesen übertragen. In einer Vorstudie haben wir einen 2D akustischen RTM Code verwendet und an realen Ultraschalldaten, die an einer Betonfundamentplatte aufgenommen wurden, getestet. Im Vergleich mit dem herkömmlichen Rekonstruktionsalgorithmus für Ultraschalldaten, der Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT), zeigten die akustischen RTM-Ergebnisse eine deutliche Verbesserung in der Abbildung der inneren Struktur der Betonfundamentplatte. Vertikale Reflektoren konnten rekonstruiert werden, was mit dem herkömmlichen Abbildungsverfahren nicht möglich war. RTM ist, im Gegensatz zu SAFT, eine wellengleichungsbasierte Migrationsmethode und beruht auf der numerischen Lösung der vollständigen Wellengleichung. Die Vorteile sind, dass der Algorithmus sämtliche Informationen des Wellenfeldes verwendet und daher verschiedene Welleneffekte wie z.B. Multipathing berücksichtigt werden können. Die RTM bietet damit die Möglichkeit auch stark geneigte Reflektoren sowie Streukörper mit komplexen Geometrien darzustellen. Ein Nachteil ist jedoch die lange Rechenzeit und der hohe Bedarf an Speicherkapazität. Ein RTM-Algorithmus, der die elastische Wellengleichung anstatt der akustischen verwendet (wie in unserer Vorstudie angewandt), hat das Potenzial, die Abbildungsergebnisse noch weiter zu optimieren. Das liegt daran, dass unsere Ultraschallmessdaten durch Anregung elastischer Wellen generiert werden. In einem ersten Schritt haben wir zwei elastische 2D-RTM-Algorithmen an synthetischen Ultraschalldaten getestet. Diese wurden mit einem Betonmodell, bestehend aus mehreren Stufen und kreisförmigen Lufteinschlüssen, erzeugt. In einem zweiten Schritt wurden reale Ultraschalldaten mit Scherwellenprüfköpfen an einer Betonstufenplatte mit integrierten Hüllrohren aufgenommen. Die Auswertung der realen Daten mit unserem elastischen RTM-Code war ebenfalls erfolgreich. Wir konnten die Abbildungsqualität der Stufen und Hüllrohre im Vergleich zur akustischen RTM und SAFT verbessern.

T1 - Multi-Sensor measurements on a large-scale bridge model N2 - This contribution introduces an investigation of a large-scale prestressed concrete bridge model (“BLEIB” structure at the BAM-TTS open air test site) by means of on-site cooperative measurements. This bridge has an external post-tensioning system and has been instrumented with the ultrasonic transducers, temperature sensors and optical fibers for Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS). Our experiment was designed to test the suitability of the novel 6C sensors developed within the framework of the GIOTTO project – the IMU50. The IMU50 sensor enables vibration measurements in translation along three axes and rotation around three axes. The geophone sensors were considered for complementary measurements of vertical velocity response. In the experiment, several perturbations were achieved by controlling the external influence factors such as loading and prestressing changes. The aim of the integrated measurement strategy was to fully observe the results of the condition change and to verify the effectiveness of multiple sensors for bridge monitoring. T2 - 5.

A1 - Niederleithinger, Ernst T1 - Impact of External Mechanical Loads on Coda Waves in Concrete N2 - During their life span, concrete structures interact with many kinds of external mechanical loads. Most of these loads are considered in advance and result in reversible deformations. Nevertheless, some of the loads cause irreversible, sometimes unnoticed changes below the macroscopic scale depending on the type and dimension of the impact. As the functionality of concrete structures is often relevant to safety and society, their condition must be known and, therefore, assessed on a regular basis. Out of the spectrum of non-destructive monitoring methods, Coda Wave Interferometry using embedded ultrasonic sensors is one particularly sensitive technique to evaluate changes to heterogeneous media. However, there are various influences on Coda waves in concrete, and the interpretation of their superimposed effect is ambiguous. In this study, we quantify the relations of uniaxial compression and uniaxial tension on Coda waves propagating in normal concrete. We found that both the signal correlation of ultrasonic signals as well as their velocity variation directly reflect the stress change in concrete structures in a laboratory environment. For the linear elastic range up to 30% of the strength, we calculated a velocity variation of −0.97‰/MPa for compression and 0.33%/MPa for tension using linear regression. In addition, these parameters revealed even weak irreversible changes after removal of the load. Furthermore, we show the time-dependent effects of shrinkage and creep on Coda waves by providing the development of the signal parameters over time during half a year together with creep recovery. Our observations showed that time-dependent material changes must be taken into account for any comparison of ultrasonic signals that are far apart in time. The study’s results demonstrate how Coda Wave Interferometry is capable of monitoring stress changes and detecting even small-size microstructural changes. By indicating the stated relations and their separation from further impacts, e.g., temperature and moisture, we anticipate our study to contribute to the qualification of Coda Wave Interferometry for its application as an early-warning system for concrete structures.
