  1. Tests of Hardened Concrete

  2. Axial tension Stress • Balance for equilibrium • loads = external forces • internal forces = stress

  3. Strain • deformation (elastic or permanent) • load • change in temperature • change in moisture • unit deformation = strain Axial

  4. Strain

  5. Strength Envelope For Concrete

  6. Effect of Confinement

  7. Affect of Water Cement Ratio

  8. Compressive Testing • brittle • stronger in compression • cross-sectional area • cylindrical, cube • ends must be plane & parallel • end restraint apparently higher strength

  9. Loaded Compressive Specimen

  10. Linear Elastic Nonlinear Elastic Stress (s) E 1 Strain (e) Elastic Properties E = modulus of elasticity = Young’s modulus = slope Strain energy per unit volume = area

  11. Elastic Properties • Poisson’s ratio =- (radial strain/axial strain)

  12. axial deformed Poisson’s Ratio (u) • ratio of lateral strain to axial strain • 0.15 to 0.50 • steel 0.28 • wood 0.16 • granite 0.28 • concrete 0.1 to 0.18 • rubber 0.50

  15. Laboratory Measuring Devices • Dial gage: • Measure relative deformation between two points. • Two different pointers: one division of small pointer corresponds to one full rotation of the large pointer.

  16. Laboratory Measuring Device • Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) • Electronic device for measuring small deformations. • Input voltage through the primary coil • Output voltage is measured in the secondary coil • Linear relationship between output voltage and displacement. zero voltage Secondary coil Primary coil Secondary coil Shell attached to point A Core attached to point B

  20. Electrical Strain Gage • Measure small deformation within a certain gage length. • A thin foil or wire bonded to a thin paper or plastic. • The strain gage is bonded to the surface for which deformation needs to be measured. • The resistance of the foil or wire changes as the surface and the strain gage are strained. • The deformation is calculated as a function of resistance change. wire Surface

  21. Load Cell • Electronic force measuring device. • Strain gages are attached to a member within the load cell. • An electric voltage is input and output voltage is obtained. • The force is determined from the output voltage. Strain gages Strain gages
