In civil engineering the information about the quantitative ingress of harmful species like Cl⁻, Na⁺ and SO²⁻₄ is of great interest to evaluate the remaining life time of structures. These species are triggering different damage processes like the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) or the chloride-induced corrosion of the reinforcement. For the evaluation of the heterogeneous concrete it is necessary to discriminate between the different phases mainly cement matrix and aggregates. The transport processes are only proceeding in the cement matrix therefore the measured concentrations should be regarded to the cement content. For the 2D evaluation of element distributions different multivariate cluster-algorithms like k-means and Expectation-Maximization-algorithm (EM-algorithm) have been tested. The methods are compared and different figures of merit will be presented. After phase separation non-relevant information of the aggregates can be excluded. The ingress of harmful species is then quantified using chemometrics. Due to concrete cores from a parking deck the methods have been validated and verified with standard methods of wet-chemistry.
Two topics will be addressed: (1) calibration-free LIBS based on Monte Carlo spectral optimization and (2) insight into the possibility of simultaneous elemental and molecular analysis by LIBS. Both topics heavily rely on modeling of laser induced plasma and are closely connected to experiment. In Monte Carlo LIBS (MC LIBS), concentrations are found by fitting model-generated synthetic spectra to experimental spectra. The model of a static uniform isothermal plasma in local thermodynamic equilibrium is employed. Many configurations of plasma parameters and their corresponding spectra are simultaneously generated using a graphic processing unit (GPU). Using the GPU allows for the reduction of computational time down to several minutes for one experimental spectrum that presents the significant progress in comparison with earlier versions of MC LIBS. The method is tested by analyzing industrial oxides containing various concentrations of CaO, Fe2O3, MgO, and TiO2. The agreement within several percent between found and certified concentrations is achieved. Next, a newly developed collisional-dominated model of a laser induced plasma is introduced. The model includes the coupled Navier-Stokes, state, radiative transfer, and material transport equations and incorporates plasma chemistry through the equilibrium approach based on the use of atomic and molecular partition functions. Simple chemical systems are modeled including ablation of Si and C in N2 and Ar atmospheres.The model is used to study evolution of number densities of atomic and molecular species in the expanding plasma plume. The distribution is compared to experimental observations obtained by optical imaging and tomography. To further verify the model, dynamic plasma
LIBS matures to a quantitative method for elemental analysis rather than a qualitative diagnostic tool. Numerous real world applications for bulk and microanalysis profit from instrumental and methodical advances in the last decade. Today, recording of numerous spectra from samples can be done with low experimental efforts and low cost per spectrum. Not surprisingly, LIBS data, with a high spectral resolution and a broad spectral range, become “big data” and can be utilized in different ways beyond elemental analysis. But, what is the generic or best approach for quantitative LIBS analysis? What techniques can be employed to gain new insights into data? Emergent information can arise through data fusion of LIBS data with other data, i.e. orthogonal spectroscopic or other information related to the sample. But are fused data better than data from a single method?
This talk will provide an in-depth overview what chemometric tools can do for LIBS. For quantitative analysis, pre-processing tools are essential to improve precision, accuracy, and reproducibility but at the same time their application to data is still based on phenomenological criteria. Multivariate analysis seems to dominate LIBS, but are there drawbacks on using all information from spectra. For different data sets from real applications, the use of multivariate calibration and (un)supervised pattern recognition will be discussed in comparison with reference analytical methods and possible improvements through plasma diagnostics and modelling.
The majority of the built infrastructure is made of concrete, which is a multiphase system made of cement, aggregates, water and pores (every year nearly 4 billion tons of cement are produced which is largest mass flow generated by mankind). Concrete is often used in combination with steel as reinforced concrete. Environmental influences, especially the ingress of harmful ions in combination with the ingress of water, trigger different damage processes which reduce the designed lifetime of a structure. The ingress of chlorides from de-icing salt or sea water leads to corrosion of the reinforcement. Also the carbonation of the concrete may trigger the corrosion of the reinforcement. The ingress of alkalis from de-icing salts may cause the expansion of the amorphous silica aggregates (alkali-silica reaction) through formation of a swelling gel of calcium silicate hydrate if water is present. The ingress of sulfates may cause spalling of the concrete surface due to ett-ringite formation. For the standard procedure in civil engineering cores are taken, cut in slices, grinded and the obtained homogenized powder is solved in acid and investigated by standard procedures. BAM has developed the LIBS technique for the 2D evaluation of the chemical composition of concrete [1-5]. The technique is established for automated laborato-ry use with high numbers of samples to investigate transport processes of harmful species (Cl-, CO2, SO42- and alkalis) in concrete. Information about ingress depth and the quantitative values are important to estimate the remaining lifetime of the infrastructure. LIBS is a surface technique. To get information about the ingress depth, a core has to be taken and cut in the middle. The measurements are carried out at the cross section. The main advantages of LIBS are the direct measure-ment on the surface of the concrete, fast analysis (sample rate 100 Hz) with a spatial resolution of up to 100 μm, the consideration of the heterogeneity of the concrete and the possibility of automated measurements which save a lot of man-power and time. As an example the investigation of ingress profiles for standard diffusion and migration tests in civil engi-neering takes hours in comparison to just a few minutes using LIBS. At the same time a 2D-evaluation provides information about hot spots of elemental concentration which may not be found by standard methods.
The state of the art of LIBS technique for applications in civil engineering will be presented, including typical results of 2D investigation of concrete in laboratory. The performance is also demonstrated by examples for on-site applications using a mobile LIBS system. The road map to standardization is presented as well.
Stahlbetonbauwerke der Verkehrsinfrastruktur sind nutzungsbedingt Expositionen ausgesetzt, die zu Schä-den an der Konstruktion führen können. Dabei ist in erster Linie die Einwirkung von tausalzhaltigen Wässern im Winter zu nennen, die durch den Beton kapillar und über Diffusionsvorgänge aufgenommen werden. Ein Weg, die kapillare Wasseraufnahme zu unterbinden, ist eine Tiefenhydrophobierung der Werkstoffoberflä-chen durch siliziumorganische Verbindungen. Die Wirksamkeit und die Dauerhaftigkeit dieser Tiefenhydro-phobierungen werden im Wesentlichen durch die Eindringtiefe und den Wirkstoffgehalt in der Betonrandzone bestimmt. Diese beiden Parameter gilt es also in der Qualitätssicherung zu überprüfen.
Bisherige Verfahren zur Qualitätssicherung einer hydrophobierenden Maßnahme sind mit einer Bohrkernent-nahme verbunden, da die Analysen im Labor durchgeführt werden müssen. Andere Verfahren arbeiten zwar zerstörungsfrei und können am Objekt durchgeführt werden, liefern aber keine Informationen über die Ein-dringtiefe und die Wirkstoffverteilung. Das Fehlen eines geeigneten Qualitätssicherungs-Verfahrens hat eine breite praktische Anwendung der als technisch sehr leistungsfähig geltenden Tiefenhydrophobierungen bisher verhindert.
Im Rahmen eines vom BMBF geförderten Forschungsvorhabens wurde ein Verfahren entwickelt mit dem direkt vor Ort das Vorhandensein der Tiefenhydrophobierung nachgewiesen und die Wirkstoffverteilung in der Betonrandzone detektiert werden kann. Da der chemische Kontrast einer Tiefenhydrophobierung zum Beton gering ist mussten „reaktive Marker“ entwickelt werden, die an das eigentliche Hydrophobierungsmittel chemisch gebunden wurden. Mit dem Verfahren der „Laser Induced Breakdown Spetroscopy“ (LIBS) konnte dann die Verteilung des als Marker verwendeten Elementes, und damit der Wirkstoffgehalt in der Betonrand-zone qualitativ und quantitativ bestimmt werden.

The Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) is a laser spectroscopic method which allows a time efficient, minor-destructive, chemical analysis of materials. In principle all elements on the periodic table can be simultaneously analysed by using LIBS, regardless of the state of aggregation. LIBS offers numerous applications in the field of civil engineering; most importantly the analysis of building materials. This work will focus on the evaluation of concrete structures and harmful substances which can penetrate the concrete. A variety of information can be collected through LIBS. Determining the concentration of harmful substances like chloride, sodium or sulphur, the examination of the carbonation depth and the distinction between varying layers of materials (e.g. aggregates, cement paste, metals, etc.) are possible applications. All this information can be provided through one LIBS measurement in the form of a high resolution 2D element map, with resolutions up to 0.1 mm x 0.1 mm. To scan a concrete surface only an optical access is needed. To create a depth profile of an intruding substance the extraction of a drill core is necessary. Onsite measurements via LIBS can be conducted by using a mobile version of the LIBS system. Through using calibration curves LIBS allows not only the qualitative but also quantitative analysis of element concentrations. All those prospects make LIBS a trendsetting method to secure the integrity of infrastructures in a sustainable manner.
