Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is a chemical reaction within concrete which can lead over time to cracking and spalling. Due to the complexity of the problem, it still causes damage to concrete constructions worldwide.
The publication aims to illustrate the interdisciplinary research of the German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) within the last 20 years, considering all aspects of ASR topics from the macro to the micro level. First, methods for characterization and assessment of ASR risks and reaction products used at BAM are explained and classified in the international context. Subsequently the added value of the research approach by combining different, preferably nondestructive, methods across all scales is explained using specific examples from a variety of research projects. Aspects covered range from the development of new test-setups to assess aggregate reactivity, to analysis of microstructure and reaction products using microscopical, spectroscopical and X-ray methods, to the development of a testing methodology for existing concrete pavements including in-depth analysis of the visual damage indicator and the de-icing salt input using innovative testing techniques. Finally, research regarding a novel avoidance strategy that makes use of internal hydrophobization of the concrete mix is presented.
Two fly ash-based geopolymer concretes with quartz aggregates or with expanded clay (lightweight) aggregates were exposed to the ISO 834-1 standard fire curve in a small-scale fire test set-up. Acoustic emission measurements during fire exposure and subsequent cooling were employed to study spalling events and cracking during the tests. Optical microscopy and additional acoustic measurements were conducted after the testing to better understand the crack propagation in the samples. The testing revealed that neither of the concretes were susceptible to spalling, which is particularly notable for the concrete with quartz aggregates, as it is a high-strength concrete. This behavior is attributed to the relatively high permeability of the concretes and their low amount of chemically bound water. Significant crack formation was detected only around the temperature of the alpha–beta quartz transition (573 °C) and on cooling. Because of aggregate deformations at the quartz transition temperature, deterioration after heating was more significant in the geopolymer concrete with quartz aggregates. Crack formation also occurred in the concrete with expanded clay aggregates, caused by shrinkage of the geopolymer paste on cooling. Acoustic emission measurements proved to be a valuable tool to investigate processes during high temperature exposure.
This paper presents the analysis of crack propagation in strain-hardening cement-based composite (SHCC) under tensile and flexural load by using acoustic emission (AE). AE is a non-destructive technique to monitor the development of structural damage due to external forces. The main objective of this research was to characterise the cracking behaviour in SHCC in direct tensile and flexural tests by using AE. A better understanding of the development of microcracks in SHCC will lead to a better understanding of pseudo strain-hardening behaviour of SHCC and its general performance. ARAMIS optical deformation analysis was also used in direct tensile tests to observe crack propagation in SHCC materials. For the direct tensile tests, SHCC specimens were prepared with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibre with three different volume percentages (1%, 1.85% and 2.5%). For the flexural test beam specimens, only a fibre dosage of 1.85% was applied. It was found that the application of AE in SHCC can be a good option to analyse the crack growth in the specimens under increasing load, the location of the cracks and most importantly the identification of matrix cracking and fibre rupture or slippage.
Alkali-activated fly ashes have been proposed for various applications where resistance against high temperatures is required, yet several details regarding the response of these materials to heat-exposure need to be clarified. In the present study, heat-induced cracking in fly ash-based alkali-activated pastes and lightweight mortars was analyzed by in-situ acoustic emission (AE) detection during complete heating-cooling cycles (up to ∼1100 °C), augmented by thermogravimetry and ex-situ SEM and XRD analyses. The applicability of the lightweight mortars as passive fire protection coatings was assessed by recording temperature-time curves of mortar-coated steel plates. Cracking during heating was limited and associated exclusively with the dehydration of the materials in the temperature range ∼90–360 °C. However, samples heated to temperatures above ∼600 °C exhibited intense cracking on cooling. This was attributed to differential deformations caused by local sintering and partial melting at the glass transition temperature, and subsequent quenching on cooling.
Since ancient times, marble has been the preferred material for monuments, sculptures, Ornaments and architecture. Though the stone is often a Chosen material, long-term exposure of marble results in cumulative deterioration of the rock fabric. The rate and extent of deterioration depends on the rock fabric and the climatic conditions. Besides the thermal vulnerability of marble, a combination of thermal and hygric fluctuation accelerates the deterioration process. The weathering sensitivity of marbles can be characterised by the irreversible length change of samples after heating under thermohygric conditions as residual strain. This residual strain is a non-reversible deterioration and caused by microcracking induced by a pronounced anisotropy of the thermal dilatation coefficient of calcite.
In brittle materials like marble, cracking and crack growth or friction on crack surfaces are accompanied by release of acoustic waves. The analysis of these acoustic emissions can give a deeper insight into the deterioration mechanism of marble.
In this study, acoustic emissions of thermohygric treated marble were analysed and correlated with ultrasonic velocities, thermal dilatation and residual strains. Therefore, different types of calcitic marble were cyclically heated from 20 °C to 90 °C and after equilibration of the samples cooled down again to 20 °C. While the first cycles were performed under dry conditions, the following were
executed in a humid environment. The analysis of acoustic emissions enables one to determine when cracking occurs during the thermal treatment. It is also possible to differentiate microcracking from internal friction. Furthermore, the evolution of Deterioration can be estimated based on ultrasonic velocities. The combination of acoustic Methods and strain measurement gives an insight into the disintegration mechanism and Supports the development of prevention strategies.
Zur Vermeidung der schädigenden Alkali-Kieselsäure-Reaktion (AKR) in Betonbauwerken wird die Alkalireaktivität von Gesteinskörnungen getestet. Der 60°C-Betonversuch ermöglicht eine vergleichsweise schnelle Einschätzung nach fünf-monatiger Testdauer. Dazu wird die Dehnung von Betonprüfkörpern, die mit der zu testenden Gesteinskörnung hergestellt wurden, manuell alle 28 Tage gemessen. Ein alternatives, an der BAM in den vergangen Jahren entwickeltes Verfahren setzt Dehnungssensoren ein, um kontinuierlich und online zu messen. Ziel dieses MNPQ-Projektes war es ein Messmodul zu entwickeln, welches eine kontinuierliche Dehnungsmessung leicht handhabbar umsetzt. Das von der Firma Schleibinger Geräte Teubert und Greim GmbH und der BAM in Kooperation entwickelte Messmodul lässt sich entweder in die herkömmliche AKR-Prüftruhe, in einen Wärmeschrank oder einen eigens entwickelten Minireaktor einlagern. Die kontinuierliche berührungslose Dehnungsmessung mittels Wirbelstromsensoren hat sich als robust und leicht handhabbar herausgestellt. Im Rahmen des Projektes ausgeführte Messungen untersuchen Einflüsse von gegenüber dem konventionellen Test variierten Testparametern, wie u.a. der Prüfkörperzahl je Behälter und dem ausbleibenden Drehen der Prüfkörper während des Tests. Die kontinuierliche Erfassung von Schallemissionen und Ultraschallgeschwindigkeit erweist sich als interessante Option um ein umfassendes Bild der Schädigungs-, Expansions-, und Hydratationsvorgänge zu gewinnen. Der eingefügte Erfolgskontrollbericht stellt den Projektverlauf dar und zeigt Chancen des entwickelten Gerätes auf.
