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.
This document presents the specification for the execution and evaluation of high-speed tensile tests on reinforcement bar coupler systems. This specification was developed at BAM - Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, Germany) - following test principles from related international standards.
The present document represents the latest status of the test specification. It is noted that until 2010 the test procedure was characterised on a test velocity based on L0. In an improved test conception and after intensive investigations in cooperation with industry partners, this procedure has been updated to consider instead a test velocity based on Lr, since this warrants more comparable and meaningful results.
At present, to produce renewable energy offshore wind farms play an important role. The available space combined with the more valuable wind conditions make offshore locations very attractive for wind powered energy production. In Europe a significant number of offshore wind farms already exist, especially in the North and Baltic Sea. In future this trend will continue, and further offshore wind farms will be built. The majority of offshore wind turbines are mounted on steel foundation structures. Due to the high-cyclic loading by wind and waves fatigue stress plays a substantial role regarding structural safety.
Besides the consideration of fatigue within the design process, to monitor existing steel structures for potential fatigue cracks during their life time is a major topic and a challenge.
For the structures of the offshore wind turbines are large and partially under water effective reliable methods for the detection of fatigue cracks are required.
This contribution presents investigations on different crack detection methods applied at high-cycle fatigue tests on small-scale welded steel samples as well as on large-scale welded steel components. The tests were conducted at the BAM laboratories. For crack detection mainly three different methods were used and compared. The first method regards to the measurement of strain by conventionally strain gauges. Secondly, the crack luminescence was used as a new and effective optical method for surface monitoring. And finally, crack detection by pressure differentials of the inner and outer section of tubular steel elements was investigated. A comparison study will emphasize the advantages and disadvantages of the different methods and show which of the described methods is potentially more suitable for an application on real offshore wind structures.
For the generation of renewable energy offshore wind farms play an important role. The majority of these wind generators are connected to steel foundation structures. Steady increasing power output of these wind turbines leads to new challenges as well for engineers of the related support structures. Caused by the high-cyclic loading of these structures by wind and waves fatigue plays a very important role. Besides the consideration of fatigue within the design process it is additionally an important topic and challenge to monitor the existing steel structures relating to potential fatigue cracks occurring during their lifetime. This plays a role for a fundamental understanding of mechanisms as investigated in testing but also for inspection in real structures.
Since the structures of the offshore wind generators are very large and in addition partially under water effective and reliable methods for fatigue crack detection are required. This contribution will present results of recent investigations on different crack detection methods applied on high-cycle fatigue tests on small welded steel samples as well as on welded steel components. The comparison of these measurements will show what are the advantages and disadvantages of the different methods and which method is potentially more suitable for the application on real offshore wind structures. It is outlined where challenges for detection methods exist.
Furthermore, in this context the resulting challenges for the execution of material testing especially caused by the increasing dimensions of wind energy converters will by exemplarily presented.

Fatigue in Concrete
(2019)
The current knowledge about fatigue behavior of concrete is still incomplete. This concerns especially the progress of fatigue which precedes the fatigue failure. An overview on the fatigue behaviour in concrete is given. Therefore, the process of fatigue itself under cyclic compressive loading was investigated in a systematic and comprehensive way. The aim of this investigation was to obtain a deeper insight and to provide a better understanding of the damage process occurring within the material during fatigue loading.
Remediation of Cracks Formed in Grouted Connections of Offshore Energy Structures under Static Loads
(2018)
The future energy demand necessitates the exploration of all potential energy sources both onshore and offshore. Global trend has shifted towards offshore energy, which can be obtained from either carbon intensive or renewable options, hence requiring structures such as rigs, platforms, and monopiles. Most of these structures adopt easily installable construction techniques, where lower foundation need to be connected with the super structure by mean of grouted composite joints. Generally, these composite connections have exterior sleeve, interior pile and infill grout. Being located in remote offshore conditions, connections can experience considerable adverse loading during their lifetimes. Degradations were reported inside similar connections, which were installed in last three decades. Besides, grouting in the offshore sites may often be proven difficult, which eventually leads to reduced capacity of connections in the long run. Thus, repair and rehabilitation of such connections should be planned ahead to minimize operational delays and costs in the future. This study aims at characterizing the nature of crack generation in grouted connections and thereby identifying the potential of repair using suitable repair material. Scaled grouted joints were manufactured using a novel mold, and connections were loaded under static load to visualize the main failure pattern. The failure mechanism and loading capacity are found compatible to previous results from earlier literature. Grouted connection was then repaired using cementitious injectable grout. The effectiveness of the repair system is also discussed.
Die Anwendung von Leichtbauprinzipien im Stahlbau, wie z.B. die Verwendung von aufgelösten Tragstrukturen, sog. Jackets-Fundamenten, bietet ein großes Potential zur Reduzierung des Ressourcenverbrauchs, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die benötigte Stahlmenge.
In diesem Vortrag zeigen wir die Potenziale einer vollständigen Digitalisierung der schweißtechnischen Fertigungs- und Prüfkette auf, um eine vollautomatische Fertigung sowie Qualitätsprüfung von Rohrknoten als Schlüsselelement von Jackets-Fundamenten zu ermöglichen. Darüber hinaus wird der Zusammenhang zwischen der Geometrie der Nahtform und der resultierenden Ermüdungsfestigkeit durch numerische Methoden unter Einbeziehung bionischer Prinzipien bewertet. Es wird gezeigt, dass Hohlprofilknoten vollautomatisch unter Berücksichtigung von Geometrietoleranzen geschweißt werden können. Darüber hinaus konnte die Nahtform gemäß den numerischen Modellen hergestellt werden, was ein großes Potenzial für eine verlängerte Lebensdauer bietet. Anschließend werden die Verbesserungen bei der Ressourceneffizienz und die Reduzierung der Kohlendioxidemissionen durch eine Lebenszyklusanalyse bewertet.
Innovative Design- und Fertigungsstrategien zur Steigerung der Leichtbaupotenziale im Stahlbau
(2022)
Ziel des Verbundvorhabens „SmartWeld“ ist es, für die schweißtechnische Fertigung von Stahlbaustrukturen exemplarisch am Beispiel von Hohlprofilknoten, welche als designrelevante Elemente von Gründungsstrukturen für Offshore-Windenergieanlagen (OWEA) einsetzbar sind, die Möglichkeiten des Leichtbaus unter konsequenter Digitalisierung der Fertigungskette aufzuzeigen, um einerseits die Ressourceneffizienz zu forcieren und gleichzeitig wettbewerbsfähige Fertigungsstrategien aufzuzeigen.
Innerhalb von „SmartWeld“ werden daher die Möglichkeiten einer wirtschaftlichen Fertigung von Leichtbau-Gründungsstrukturen am Beispiel aufgelöster Tragstrukturen (Jackets) aufgezeigt. Eine lastgerechte Auslegung der Schweißverbindungen nach bionischen Prinzipien ermöglicht, weitere Einsparpotenziale an Ressourcen bei gleichzeitiger Erhöhung der Lebensdauer zu erschließen.
Die Ausnutzung konstruktiver Prinzipien des Leichtbaus zur Erzeugung innovativer und ressourcenschonender Produkte erfordert den Einsatz digitaler Werkzeuge in der Designphase, der virtuellen Absicherung, der Fertigung und Qualitätsüberwachung sowie nachgelagerten Bauteilprüfung zur Abbildung der Nutzungsphase. Im Rahmen der Arbeiten wird daher der gesamte Produktentstehungs- und Prüfprozess betrachtet. Dies beinhaltet das Design im Kontext des konstruktiven Leichtbaus, den schweißtechnischen Fertigungsprozess, die Bauteilprüfung sowie den Transfer der Ergebnisse in die Industrie durch serientaugliche Demonstratoren. Der Fokus der Arbeiten ist, die Fertigung auch im Umfeld eines für großskalige Stahlstrukturen üblichen hohen Individualisierungsgrades schweißtechnisch zu automatisieren und das Leichtbaupotenzial gezielt umzusetzen. Die Vorgaben aus der Designphase hinsichtlich einer lastgerechten Gestaltung bzw. Implementierung bionischer Ansätze können so gezielt durch einen adaptiven, automatisierten Schweißprozess eingestellt werden. Dies führt zu einer Erhöhung der Ermüdungs¬festigkeit und damit Produktlebensdauer, wodurch die Strukturen dünnwandiger ausgeführt und Ressourcen sowie CO2 eingespart werden können.
