While there is a permanent improvement of concrete pavement mixtures and pavement construction types over the last decades, the state-of-the-art joint sealing materials and joint constructions seem to stagnate on an antiquated empirical level. This status has been reaffirmed in the latest European standard. The consequences in the motorway network due to unsatisfying capability and durabilty of joint sealing systems are unacceptable. In addition, inadequate traffic performance (noise emissions, roll-over comfort) and traffic safety losses in the joint area of concrete pavements are existing challenges. These deficits and weaknesses reflect a demand for joint sealing materials and constructions whose approval requirements take functional aspects into account. Furthermore a sufficient analysis of decisive loads and a practice-oriented method to evaluate the requirements towards performance and durability is still missed. In this contribution decisive loads to German highways are analyzed. The design of test specimen for representative functional testing of joint sealing systems is discussed. The focus is on the geometry of the test specimens and the used concrete mixture. Finally, a new approach for a function-orientated test concept that considers representative load functions is presented. The potential of this approach to validate the durability and capability of various joint sealing systems is also presented using an example.
More Information about the capability and especially about the dnrabi 1 ity of Structural Sealant Glazing (SSG) Systems are needed. To make a contribution to questions unanswered a suitable System evaluation test is necessary. The Basis for such a test is a load function, vvhich accounts for the decisive loads SSG Systems are exposed to during their working life. This paper proposes a general load function for Standard SSG Systems at central German locations for accelerated durability tests. Decisive loads are determined and different SSG construction types defmed. The performance of these SSG Systems under exposure to externa! loads and to a dynamic pendulum impact is investigated via finite element analyses using a hyperelastic material niodel. The external loads are applied separately and superimposed. Compression, tensile and shear deformations of the sealant are determined. It is found that the sealant is subjected to normal and shear stresses simultaneously. The requirements for a representative specimen are derived. The results will be taken as basics for the development and the construction of a test facility to evaluate the durability of Structural Sealant Glazing Systems.

Zunächst wird für eine gebrauchsbezogene Auswahl von Fahrbahnübergängen im Rahmen der Planung von Brückenbauwerken argumentiert. Auf der Grundlage der Ableitung maßgebender nutzerbezogener Gebrauchsanforderungen wird das grundlegende Leistungspotential belagsähnlicher flexibler Fahrbahnübergangskonstruktionen aufgezeigt. Die der Leistungsfähigkeit und Dauerhaftigkeit zugrunde liegenden stofflichen und konstruktiven Funktionsprinzipien werden erläutert. Die aktuelle baurechtliche Situation unter Berücksichtigung nationaler und europäischer technischer Regelwerke wird vorgestellt. Es werden auf entsprechend bei der Auswahl, Planung, Anwendung und Zulassung resultierenden Konsequenzen aufmerksam gemacht und Anwendungsregelungen gegeben. Dabei stehen insbesondere die für den Planer, Hersteller, Ausführenden sowie Bauauftraggeber aus den Regelwerken aber auch aus einzelnen technischen Zulassungen abzuleitenden wichtigen technischen und technologischen Informationen und zu berücksichtigenden Randbedingungen sowie Konsequenzen zur Güte- und Qualitätssicherung im Vordergrund.
The operational principle for today's bridge deck surfacings is a strong and durable bond between all layers of the pavement and the concrete structure under all loads. A strong bond helps to ensure the desired safety level against water penetration. But in use there is a strong loading of the bond by crack development in the structure or pavement and its dynamical movement. To ensure the sealing function of the bridge deck surfacing over the time its waterproofing has to show a durable crack bridging ability. With it the useful life of the bridge deck surfacing is essentially determined. To characterise the influences on a durable bond strength and crack bridging ability of waterproofings special research and tests were realised in the BAM. From the test results it is possible to detect suitable waterproofing layers and differences in durability. Tensile fatigue strength and other mechanical features seems to be special suited material characteristics to describe the crack bridging behaviour of waterproofing layers.
Ingenieurbauwerke wie Brücken, hoch beanspruchte Verkehrsflächen oder auch Hochhäuser und deren Bauwerksteile wie z.B. Hochhausfassaden werden aus technischen und ästhetischen Gründen durch Fugen in Einzelabschnitte unterteilt. Zur Sicherstellung der Gebrauchsfähigkeit und zum Schutz des Gesamtbauwerks, aber in zunehmendem Maße auch zur statisch-konstruktiven Anbindung der Bauwerksteile, werden diese Fugenspalte in aller Regel durch spezielle Fugenfüllsysteme verschlossen. Aufgrund der hohen Sicherheitsrelevanz bei Fugenfüllungen im Glasfassadenbau fordert das Baurecht auch bei diesen Bauprodukten als Voraussetzung für die baupraktische Verwendbarkeit neben dem Nachweis der Funktionsfähigkeit auch den Nachweis der Dauerhaftigkeit. Da die hierfür bekannten Nachweismethoden zur Dauerhaftigkeit keine allgemeine Zulassungsakzeptanz finden, kann das ästhetische, bauphysikalische und ökonomische Potential von modernen geklebten Ganzglasfassaden (sogenannte SSG-Fassaden) in der Baupraxis der Bundesrepublik Deutschland derzeit nicht ausgenutzt werden. Grund dafür sind die ungenügend erfassten und in den Bewertungsverfahren simulierten Wechselwirkungen derartiger Baukonstruktionen mit der Umwelt. In diesem Beitrag soll am Beispiel moderner Fugen im Glasfassadenbau (SSG-Fassaden) eine ganzheitliche gebrauchsbezogene Versuchsmethodik zur kontrollierten Ansprache der Funktionsfähigkeit und Dauerhaftigkeit von Fugensystemen unter realitätsnah und reproduzierbar simulierten Umwelteinwirkungen vorgestellt werden. Dazu werden die maßgebenden Umwelteinflüsse und die Quantifizierung der daraus folgenden Beanspruchungen auf derartige Fugensysteme dargestellt. Basierend darauf werden eine repräsentative Beanspruchungsfunktion zur Nachstellung der maßgebenden Umwelteinflüsse und Beanspruchungen auf das System Tragrahmen - Fugenfüllung- Glasscheibe sowie eine geeignete Probendimensionierung abgeleitet. In der Konsequenz werden die Erkenntnisse in den Aufbau einer neuartigen komplexen Versuchseinrichtung überführt. Funktionsprinzip und Leistungsparameter dieser Anlage zur Umweltsimulation werden vorgestellt. Die Möglichkeiten der Systemkennzeichnung werden vorgestellt. Erste Versuchsergebnisse zeigen das Potential der neuartigen Bewertungsmethodik auf, die Kunst der Fuge im Bauwesen gebrauchsorientiert weiter zu entwickeln.
Durability Assessment of Structural Sealant Glazing Systems applying a Performance Test Method
(2020)
During the service life of a Structural Sealant Glazing (SSG) facade, its silicone bond is exposed to climatic, chemical, and mechanical loads. While current durability assessment methods schedule separate test programmes for accelerated weathering and fatigue, the presented test applies mechanical loading and weather cycling simultaneously to simulate 50 years of use. Specifically designed medium-scale system specimens resemble a common SSG-bond. Displacement-controlled sinusoidal load cycles in two load directions subject these specimens to tensile, compression and shear loads. Weathering comprises temperature and humidity cycles, UV-radiation, and application of water and detergent. During testing, the forces transmitted by the system specimens are continuously measured for performance assessment. The resulting system response reveals mechanical performance characteristics like elastic moduli and dissipated energies which decrease during exposure, indicating stress relaxation and degradation. Two common structural sealants were tested. After testing, sections of the system specimens were subjected to tensile and shear tests for mechanical characterisation. Strengths and moduli are notably reduced by combined loading compared to those of reference and weathered specimens. Hardness and visual inspections of the bond correlate with the performance and bond characteristics. The approach introduced in this article provides a basis for life cycle assessment of SSG-systems.
Gradual or sudden changes in the state of structural systems caused, for example, by deterioration or accidental load events can influence their load-bearing capacity. Structural changes can be inferred from static and/or dynamic response data measured by structural health monitoring systems. However, they may be masked by variations in the structural response due to varying environmental conditions. Particularly, the interaction of nominally load-bearing components with nominally non-load bearing components exhibiting characteristics that vary as a function of the environmental conditions can significantly affect the monitored structural response. Ignoring these effects may hamper an inference of structural changes from the monitoring data. To address this issue, we adopt a probabilistic model-based framework as a basis for developing digital twins of structural systems that enable a prediction of the structural behavior under varying ambient condition. Within this framework, different types of data obtained from real the structural system can be applied to update the digital twin of the structural system using Bayesian methods and thus enhance predictions of the structural behavior. In this contribution, we implement the framework to develop a digital twin of a simply supported steel beam with an asphalt layer. It is formulated such that it can predict the static response of the beam in function of its temperature. In a climate chamber, the beam was subject to varying temperatures and its static response wass monitored. In addition, tests are performed to determine the temperature-dependent properties of the asphalt material. Bayesian system identification is applied to enhance the predictive capabilities of the digital twin based on the observed data.
Entwicklung eines Prüfstandes zur Kennzeichnung des Alterungsverhaltens von Fugenfüllsystemen
(2003)
Mehr als 25 Jahre nach dem ersten Einbau eines sogenannten Fahrbahnüberganges aus Asphalt und nach nunmehr 13-jähriger Erfahrungen mit den gütesichernden Maßnahmen des technischen Regelwerks in Deutschland kann eine insgesamt positive Bilanz gezogen werden. Diese Ausführungsvariante der Bauart flexibler Fahrbahnübergang hat mittlerweile einen akzeptierten Platz auf dem Gebiet der Brückenausstattung für Bauwerke mit einer freien Dehnlänge bis zu 30 m eingenommen. Die generelle Bewährung ist aktuelle Motivation, durch stoffliche und konstruktive Weiterentwicklungen die bauartbedingten Vorteile in einen größeren Anwendungsbereich zu überführen. Die baurechtliche Grundlage dafür bilden die neuen europäisch harmonisierten Zulassungsregelungen. Erste Erfahrungen aus der versuchstechnischen Bewertung neuartiger Ausführungsvarianten werden vorgestellt.
Structural sealant glazing (SSG) is an impressive technical response to the challenges of modern structural design. The evaluation of fitness for use as well as durability is a precondition for approval of SSG-façades by building authorities because of their special safety relevance. However, the potential of the actual evaluation methodology to reproduce performance as well as durability under real use conditions is generally assessed to be limited. The concept so far is criticized as mainly single-loading and incomplete in comparison to the real use conditions. The exercised separation of the in reality interacting loading effects is assessed as insufficient and inadequate to explore performance. Consequently, the performance and capability of SSG-solutions is only fragmentarily explored. However, the most restricting argument so far is the deficit of the actual test methodology for life cycle prognosis under interacting mechanical as well as climatic loads. Because of the limited acceptance, additional structural design conditions are imposed by the authorities. Besides this restriction, there is also an increasing demand by the authorities, architects, and users for determinable working life cycles, not least under economic aspects. That is why knowledge, particularly regarding SSG-performance and durability, must be expanded. Together with partners representing all branches involved in façade engineering (engineering design, sealant producer, applicator, and cladding company) the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) develops a new system test focused on the substrate–sealant–glass panel interaction. With it, a new comprehensive dynamic–mechanical evaluation methodology already introduced at the fourth Symposium in Anaheim, CA, in 2011 shall be complemented by a performance-related system test. Subject-matter of this contribution is the presentation of a new dynamic–mechanical system test method and its first experimental application on SSG-systems. We describe our approach beginning with the discussion of relevant load effects on sealant joints and with the help of a highly generalized finite element (FE) analysis. Resulting from a parameter study of various load combinations acting on different SSG-construction types, we derive a practicable deformation load function from the decisive load categories taking into account regular as well as extraordinary loads. Assumptions and procedures to quantify their parameter values (regarding the effective direction and order of deformation magnitude affecting the substrate–sealant–glass bond) are discussed. The calculated decisive sealant deformations resulting from the parameter study are validated by simplified mechanical plausibility tests. Subsequently, the transfer of the findings about the substrate–sealant–glass panel bond loading into the design and construction of an adapted system test specimen and the development of a multifunctional test facility is introduced. The multi-functional applicability of the system test device is discussed. On the basis of results during our actual operational checks, first ideas about system performance and durability under superimposed loading are presented. A validation of this new test methodology by comparison to test results of disassembled samples and in situ results is a task for separate research activities.
Fahrbahnübergänge aus Asphalt - Stand der Prüftechnik; Bewährung und Erfahrungen in Deutschland
(2005)
Das erdölstammige Bindemittel Bitumen weist eine so komplexe Struktur auf, dass diese mit den derzeit eingesetzten Verfahren nur eingeschränkt erfasst werden kann. Eine innovative und vielversprechende Möglichkeit bietet in diesem Zusammenhang die FTIR-Spektroskopie in Kombination mit einer chemometrischen Auswertung, mit der schnell und einfach Aussagen über die Zusammensetzung sowie verschiedenste physikalische und chemische Eigenschaften von bitumenhaltigen Materialien möglich werden.
Fugenfüllungen im kommunalen Stadtstrassenbau unterliegen besonderen mechanischen Beanspruchungen. Hier kommt es bereits bei der Planung darauf an, Fugenausführungen und insbesondere Fugenfüllstoffe bewusst nach ingenieurtechnischen Gesichtspunkten auszuwählen. Dazu ist das ingenieurtechnische Verständnis der relevanten Fugenfüllstoffe - Funktionsweise, Leistungskriterien, Prüfungen, Dauerhaftigkeit - von entscheidender Bedeutung. Der Vortrag erläutert nicht nur die maßgebenden Fugenfüllstoffe unter den vorgenannten Schwerpunkten, sondern stellt auch das Verständnis zu den Rahmenbedingungen, Grundlagen und Wirkmechanismen des entsprechenden technischen Regelwerkes her. Neueste Entwicklungen werden den Praxisvertretern näher gebracht und erläutert. Die Zusammenhänge und Strategien zur Weiterentwicklung der „Betonstrasse der Zukunft“ werden diskutiert und dargestellt.
lm Jahre 2001 wurden einheitliche vertragliche, material- und konstruktionsspezifische Regelungen über die Ausführung, Prüfung und Abnahme von Fugenfüllungen in Verkehrsflächen eingeführt. Mit dem vorliegenden Beitrag soll die ZTV Fug-StB 01 vorgestellt und in das Technische Regelwerk zur Ausbildung von Betonfahrbahndecken im Bundesfernstraßenbau eingeordnet werden.
Flexible joint transition systems in the form of bituminous joint transitions, type 4.1a according to RTD1007-1, have been used in the Netherlands with varying success. The lifespan in practice was found to vary greatly: between 1 and 5 years. This is too short a lifespan in relation to the lifespan of the layers of asphalt pavement. Ideally, the replacement of these bituminous joint transitions should take place simultaneously as the maintenance of the asphalt layers.
In the meantime, research has been carried out nationally and internationally into improving the life span of bituminous joint transitions. In Germany and Switzerland, the regulations have been shown to lead to a life span of more than 10 years. On this basis, ETAG032-3 was established in the context of EOTA in 2013.
In a competition "Silent sustainable joint transitions" held by the Dutch Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management in the period 2007-2012, three flexible bituminous joint transitions have already been tested, two of which were ultimately found to be suitable. These have been included in the multi-choice matrix (RTD 1007-1) as concept 4.1b (anchored bituminous joint transition) and 4.1c (unanchored bituminous joint transition with stretch-spreading inlay and poured asphalt edge beams). Monitoring these joint transitions in practice over the past 8 years has shown that the desired life span is achievable with these improved joint transitions.
It is expected that the improvement in life span achieved abroad can also be realised in the Netherlands if several aspects specific to the Netherlands are taken into account:
For large parts of the Dutch main road network, the traffic intensity of 500,000 heavy vehicles per year assumed in the ETAG032-3 is insufficient. This is a factor 4 to 5 higher on the busiest main roads in the Netherlands.
On 90% of the Dutch main road network, in contrast to countries such as Germany and Switzerland, an open layer (ZOAB (zeer open asfaltbeton [very open asphalt concrete])) is used.
In the Netherlands, in contrast to countries such as Germany and Switzerland, bridges and viaducts are made on a large scale of prefabricated beams and 'floating' support systems that consist entirely of rubber supports that can be deformed all-round. Such constructions have a less favourable, high-frequency deformation behaviour under traffic load.
In Germany and Switzerland, a minimum joint mass temperature of -20 °C is assumed to test bituminous joint transitions. For the Netherlands, -15 °C is assumed, which has a favourable effect.
The present second version of RTD 1007-4 is a guideline for the development and realisation of a new generation of more durable flexible joint transitions with a minimum design life of 10-15 years and is a guideline for contractors to demonstrate that a flexible joint transition system meets the requirements as set out in the Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management guideline RTD 1007-2.
Die Ausführung von Abdichtungssystemen insbesondere an Ingenieurbauwerken der Verkehrsinfrastruktur greift in die unmittelbare Verfügbarkeit/Nutzbarkeit des Bauwerks ein und erfolgt deshalb i.a.R. unter höchstem Zeitdruck. Neuere materialtechnische Entwicklungen im Bereich der Flüssigkunststoff-Systeme erlauben kürzere Ausführungszeiten in einem erweiterten Einsatzspektrum. Zur Sicherstellung anforderungsgerechter Gebrauchseigenschaften des gesamten Brückenabdichtungssystems gibt die vorliegende Veröffentlichung Hinweise für die einzuhaltenden Baugrundsätze, bautechnologische Besonderheiten und Erfordernisse im Umgang mit Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA) sowie qualitätssichernde Maßnahmen.
