In this study, the author proposed rheological models to describe the rehological behaviors of fresh concrete before and after yield, based on the achievements of the author’s past study about the shear stress-shear strain, shear strain rate relationships. Three rheological property indexes (RPI) were further suggested for fresh concrete, which are yield stress (shear failure limit stress), basic viscosity, and the shear stain rate under the yield stress (hereafter called briefly thixotropy index), respectively. The basic viscosity and the thixotropy index are experimentally determined on basis of the shear stress-shear strain rate relation that is measured when the mean particle contact angle of fresh concrete becomes zero. Furthermore, a ring shear apparatus (named RSNS) was developed to measure the three rheological property indexes and the rheological constants (RCs) in the rheological models. RSNS can measure the rheological performances of fresh concrete under a desired normal stress by either the stress-controlled test or the strain rate-controlled test. Test methods for the RPI and the RCs based on the RSNS rheometer were discussed. Finally, an experiment was performed to investigate the variation of the RPI and the RCs of high fluidity concrete with elapsed time.

BASIC STUDY ON ESTIMATING STRENGTH OF CONCRETE BY UCI METHOD

Yohei INABA*, Toshikatsu ICHINOSE** and Tetsushi KANDA***

Concrete is the most important material to construct structures. One of the most important properties of concrete

is a compressive strength which is needed to control over the specified design standard strength after hardening. The compressive strength test is very important but generally tested objects are test pieces which molded cylinder, not structural concrete itself. The compressive strength of concrete is influenced by curing, the strength of test piece is different from that of structural concrete. The strength test is desirable to be tested in-situ.

One of the most popular strength tests for structural concrete is compressive strength test with boring core sampling. But this test is destructive, so the structure is damaged. Then desirable test is non-destructive. But the existing non-destructive tests have some problems about accuracy, strength range, etc.

It is necessary to investigate new strength test which has following 4 properties. 1) micro destructive, 2) testing in-situ, 3) easiness of calibrating, 4) capability of measuring the local area. The UCI (Ultrasonic Contact Impedance) method has these 4 properties, so basic study about UCI applying to concrete has developed.

UCI method has developed for metal materials in 1960’s to measure Vickers hardness automatically by electric device. UCI method is micro destructive, more accurate and applicable for high strength concrete with portable electric device. But UCI method has not be applied to concrete for many years, because of changing Young’s modulus with time. The UCI method needs Young’s modulus for estimating Vickers hardness, so Young’s modulus needs to be measured at the same time. But there is no method to measure Young’s modulus at the same time.

Improving the UCI method to estimate Young’s modulus and compressive strength is investigated and verified. The conclusions are below.

1. Because the young’s modulus of concrete is changing with age, it is necessary to measure the Young’s modulus of concrete at that age in order to estimate the strength of concrete by UCI method.

2. It is possible to estimate the young’s modulus by UCI method, using steel plate of 0.2mm thickness between material and Vickers diamond.

3. There is a high correlation between measured hardness and strength of concrete. 4. This modified UCI method has some possibility of being the micro-destructive in-situ testing for strength and

Young’s modulus of concrete.

For improving the efficiency of concrete construction and ensuring the construction quality of concrete component with individual geometry and reinforcing bar arrangement, optimization of the workability of fresh concrete is necessary and possible, according to component’s structural formation and construction method. The study on the rheological model that can express the complex rheological behaviors of various fresh concrete, including non-linearity, dilatancy, vertical pressure-dependence, and loading time-dependence, etc., is very important and urgent for realizing the workability design based on numerical flow simulation.

The quantitatively experimental investigation on the rheological properties of fresh concrete is very difficult because present rheometers are originally designed for only measuring yield value and plastic viscosity. For this reason, the author developed a microscopic approach in the past study16), in which fresh concrete is considered as a viscous particle assembly containing water, the mean particle contact angle θ is introduced to express the particles’ interlocking degree that increases in the viscous elastic-plastic state but decreases in the failure state, and the micro strain of fresh concrete arises from the movement of the sliding particles occurring in probability. Using this microscopic approach, the author has further investigated quantitatively the relationships between shear stress (τ ) and shear strain (γ), shear strain rate γ before and after yield, respectively16), 19).

In this study, the author further modeled the rheological properties of fresh concrete based on the achievements of the past studies mentioned just above. The shear deformation model before yield is shown in Eq.(2-1). With increasing the τ and loading time (t), the γincreases, but the greater the normal stress (σ ), the smaller the γ The diagram of the shear deformation model is shown in Fig.2 (a). After yield, because the shear deformation speeds up, viscous resistance is yielded and thus results in a continuous increase of shear stress. Eq. (2-2) shows the γ -τ relationship before yield. With increasing the τ till to the yield stress (τf) the γ firstly increases before suspension limit, then decreases and approaches to zero at the time point of rupture, as shown in Fig.2 (b). The τf is shown in Eq. (2-9) that indicates that it depends on the σn and mean particle contact angle (θf) at the time point of yield, besides mean inter-particle frictional angle (φ) The shear resistance model after yield was proposed as shown in Eq. (2-6) that consists of the particle-characteristic resistance portion (the first and the second term in the right side of the equation) resulting from the particle fabric, and the viscous resistance portion (the third term). The first term and the apparent viscosity (ηa) decease with the increase in shear deformation after yield, thus the increase of the γ with the τ speeds up, as shown in Fig.2 (b). Based on the proposed rheological models, three rheological property indexes (RPI) were suggested for fresh concrete’s evaluation and quality control, which are τf basic viscosity (η) and thixotropy index (γt) respectively. The η and γt are the viscosity and shear strain rate under a shear stress equal to the τf when the θ is near to zero

For measuring the RPI and the rheological constants (RCs) in Eq. (2-1) and Eq. (2-6), a ring shear apparatus was developed, named RSNS rheometer, as shown in Fig.4, which is able to increase shear stress by torque-controlled method or by rotation speed-controlled method. The σ is changed by two air cylinders driven by a compressor. The upper blade can’ t rotate, but the lower blade is driven by an electric motor. The central standstill axis of RSNS is a rod-shaped vibrator that is also used for compacting fresh concrete sample. Mean shear strain, mean strain rate, mean shear stress, and the σ are calculated by Eq. (3-2). Eq.(3-4), and Eq. (3-7), respectively.

Then, the test methods of the RPI and RCs were discussed in case of using the RSNS rheometer. Before yield, q and c8 are measured by keeping the torque unchanged, according to Eq. (3-10) and Eq. (2-1). And the τ-γ relationship curve is gotten by increasing the torque at a very small rate for determining the τf as well as c2/c6 and c3/c6 according to Eq.(3-9). After yield, based on the down-curve (straight line) of the flow curve measured by reducing the rotation speed of the lower blade, Eq. (2-10) is obtained, the η and γt are thus determined. When calculating the γt the shear stress used is equal to the τf And using the result of the τ σn relationship, which is measured at a very small shear rate under different pressures of air cylinders, the φ and Cw1 are determined according to the Eq. (3-14). Furthermore, the θf is calculated by substituting the values of τf σn, φ, and Cw1 into Eq. (2-9). Finally, based on the measuring results of shear stress on the condition that the γ is very small constant, the rheological constant κ is determined, using the relationship shown in Eq. (3-13).

Using the above test methods, variation of the RPI and RCs of high fluidity concrete with elapsed time were investigated. The experimental results of the RPI and RCs are shown in Fig. 9 and Fig.11.
