Towards practical carbonation prediction and modelling for service life design of reinforced concrete structures
Amongst the scientific community, the interest on durability of concrete structures has been high for quite a long time of over 40 years. Of the various causes of degradation of concrete structures, corrosion is the most widespread durability problem and carbonation is one of the two causes of steel reinforcement corrosion. While much scientific understanding has been gained from the numerous c...
متن کاملIntegration of Deterioration Modelling and Reliability Assessment for Reinforced Concrete Bridge Structures
Deterioration of reinforced concrete and the reliability of deteriorating structures have been, and still are, widely researched fields. A critical aspect of this research effort is the integration of deterioration modelling with reliability assessment. This paper focuses on this issue and illustrates how the integration of these techniques can lead towards more realistic predictions of the tim...
متن کاملExploration of Set-based Design for Reinforced Concrete Structures
To explore the feasibility of improving the delivery process of reinforced concrete, we focus in this paper on reinforcing bars (rebar) used in cast-in-place (CIP) concrete. Specifically, we describe the methodology for set-based design of rebar that we are pursuing in an ongoing research effort. Set-based design makes it possible to maintain feasible solutions for longer in the design process ...
متن کاملQuasi Distributed OTDR Crack Sensor for Reinforced Concrete Structures
A quasi-distributed fiber optic sensor is developed for embedment in concrete structures. The sensor principles are simple, and therefore, practical for crack detection and deformation measurement in civil structural applications. The distributed sensor developed herein operates based on the intensity measurements of optical power. The sensor consists of a number of individual segments on one l...
متن کاملUtilising confinement reinforcement for shear resistance in reinforced concrete structures
Common transverse reinforcement of reinforced concrete members with circular cross-section consists of round ties or spirals. Its purpose in members that are not subjected to significant shear loading is to provide proper confinement for concrete, and eliminate buckling of the longitudinal reinforcement bars. If spirals are to be used as both shear enabler and confiner for reinforced concrete b...
