Reinforcement identification design | | Types and causes of damage to concrete structures – Crack issues – Durability cracks

by

The quality problems of the steel bars themselves lead to rust stains on the surface of the steel bars, which further develop into a rust layer on the entire surface of the steel bars, resulting in expansion of the steel bars, reduced adhesion between the steel bars and the concrete, and separation from the concrete.

The concrete itself undergoes damage, resulting in cracks along the reinforcement and detachment of the concrete.

At this point, the corrosion and expansion of steel bars will exacerbate the development of concrete cracks.

As shown in the following figure:.

A few days ago, I mentioned that there was a frame beam in the G3 fire pump room that we constructed last year that needed structural reinforcement.

Due to changes in the equipment foundation, the load has increased significantly.

So the design institute issued a change notice: the story of using carbon fiber cloth for bending reinforcement of the beam.

In the past, concrete was always associated with words such as “heavy”, “hard”, and “fragile”.

Magnetic Thread Disc

Is there a material that allows concrete to not only bounce in place like a basketball, but also withstand extreme pulling and stretching at heights of tens or even hundreds of meters?.

In the concrete mixing plant and laboratory, we repeat the actions of weighing, feeding, and mixing day after day.

But there is a question that is often overlooked but worth pondering: why are the “states” and “strengths” of different mixers, or even different batches of materials from the same mixer, vastly different even with the same mix proportion and raw materials?.
