Strength of heavy concrete during static-dynamic deformation

Abstract

Method and results of determination of strength and deformation characteristics of heavy concrete at static loading to the specified stress level, followed by high-speed loading with dynamic load, are presented. The process of testing a series of concrete samples of one strength class is described to obtain the performance characteristics of concrete at static, dynamic and static-dynamic loading. Comparative analysis of the obtained experimental data was carried out under different loading modes of prototypes. It was established that during dynamic and static-dynamic loading there is an increase in the level of relative stresses corresponding to the beginning of concrete dilatation by 20-30% relative to the results of static tests. The obtained experimental results are of interest for solving problems related to the problem of survivability of buildings and structures and their protection against progressive collapse, in particular in determining criteria of strength and deformability of concrete at a special limit state.

Relationship of Different Properties from Non-Destructive Testing of Heavy Concrete from Magnetite and Serpentinite

“…The dynamic [ 11 , 12 ] and thermodynamic properties [ 13 ] of concrete have also been investigated, and various numerical models have been prepared [ 14 , 15 ]. In general, it is necessary to evaluate both the production intensity and the sustainability of various concrete mixtures [ 16 , 17 , 18 ].…”
