Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering, belonging to the field of bridge reinforcement technology. Background Technology
[0002] Bridge expansion joints are auxiliary structures installed between bridge abutments and beam ends, and between adjacent bridge spans. Their main function is to prevent structural damage or failure of the bridge main body caused by factors such as load, temperature difference, and its own shrinkage. They also guide and buffer the overall displacement of the bridge, preventing damage from massive impacts caused by unpredictable forces such as earthquakes. The rapid increase in traffic volume and the ever-increasing weight of vehicles have led to many bridges, before reaching their designed service life, prematurely entering the repair stage due to defects such as wear, erosion, cracking, fracture, spalling, and debonding of the concrete in the transition zone of the expansion joints from the main structure and asphalt pavement. Therefore, the quality control of the concrete in the transition zone has a significant impact on the structural performance of bridge expansion joints, driving safety, and comfort, and is a key aspect of road and bridge maintenance and operation. Currently, steel fiber reinforced concrete, micro-expansion high-strength concrete, or polymer repair mortar are mainly used to treat concrete defects in the transition zone of bridge expansion joints. However, due to their rigidity or flexibility, single filling systems cannot completely cure the defects and are difficult to achieve the expected results. Defects such as wear, erosion, cracking, fracture, and spalling of the concrete in the transition zone continue to occur, increasing the pressure on later operation.
[0003] Patent CN106894332B discloses a repair structure and construction method for the transition zone of expansion joints in highway concrete bridges. The repair structure designed by the method consists of a high-performance wear-resistant overlay layer and an ultra-high toughness self-compacting concrete layer. The high-performance wear-resistant overlay layer is laid on top of the ultra-high toughness self-compacting concrete layer, which is equipped with a prestressed steel hinged truss. However, the repair structure has certain defects in terms of materials and structure: On the one hand, the high-performance wear-resistant overlay layer is cast with cement asphalt mortar, which can improve the wear and tear of the concrete in the transition zone of the bridge expansion joint to a certain extent. However, the cement asphalt mortar has relatively poor durability and is prone to aging, affecting the long-term service performance of the material. On the other hand, the C80 ultra-high toughness self-compacting concrete used in the ultra-high toughness self-compacting concrete layer still has relatively strong rigidity, and the risk of fracture of the lower structure in the transition zone is still relatively high during the load-bearing process. On the other hand, in the method, the high-performance wear-resistant overlay layer mainly plays a wear-resistant role in the entire bridge expansion joint transition zone and does not serve as the main structure. The structural layer is relatively thin and only bears the load transfer function, so its mechanical strength is relatively poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need to further develop methods to improve the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. The method is based on the functional gradient theory to realize a composite structure of ultra-high strength cement-based materials and ultra-high toughness cement-based materials, which combines rigidity and flexibility. This not only improves the wear resistance and erosion resistance of the concrete surface layer in the transition zone, but also alleviates the pressure of traditional filling materials experiencing network cracking, breakage and spalling during service, improves driving comfort, reduces the maintenance and operation costs of bridge expansion joints, and ensures service performance.
[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0017] Preferably, the concrete interface adhesive is an acrylic epoxy resin water-based emulsion; the acrylic epoxy resin water-based emulsion is milky white, odorless, and has good anti-corrosion properties, which can significantly improve the mutual adhesion between the interface of the beam and slab and the ultra-high strength filling layer, and between the ultra-high strength filling layer and the ultra-high toughness filling layer.

[0026] Beneficial effects
[0027] (1) This invention provides a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. The method involves sequentially pouring an ultra-high toughness filling layer and an ultra-high strength filling layer onto the upper surface of the beam slab in the transition zone of the bridge expansion joint. The thickness ratio of the ultra-high toughness filling layer to the ultra-high strength filling layer is set to 0.3 to 0.7 to achieve a composite structure of ultra-high strength cement-based material and ultra-high toughness cement-based material. Both the ultra-high strength filling layer material and the ultra-high toughness filling layer material are functional materials with excellent mechanical properties and durability. Through the formation of a functional gradient (the bottom layer increases toughness function - the surface layer increases strength function), they jointly undertake the main function, resulting in better overall integrity. This not only improves the wear resistance and erosion resistance of the concrete surface layer in the transition zone, but also alleviates the pressure of traditional filling materials experiencing network cracking, breakage, and spalling during service, improves driving comfort, reduces the maintenance and operation costs of bridge expansion joints, and ensures service performance.
[0028] (2) This invention provides a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. The method involves roughening the surface of the beam to increase the roughness of the contact surface and improve the interface strength between the beam and the ultra-high toughness filling layer. Then, by roughening, serrifying the interface, or pre-embedding shear bars during the pouring process of the ultra-high toughness filling layer, the integrity of the functional gradient material of the ultra-high strength filling layer and the ultra-high toughness filling layer is strengthened. In addition, the method also sprays concrete interface adhesive between the contact surfaces of different structural materials. This solves the problem of debonding and separation between traditional filling materials and the main structure and asphalt pavement, ensuring that the reserved groove concrete and the ultra-high strength filling layer and the ultra-high toughness filling layer work together to bear the force, greatly improving the wear resistance and erosion resistance of the upper structure of the transition zone, and ensuring the design service life of the concrete in the transition zone of the bridge expansion joint.
[0029] (3) This invention provides a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. The method involves filling the surface layer structure of the bridge expansion joint transition zone with ultra-high strength cement-based material. This ultra-high strength cement-based material is based on the principle of closest packing, with optimized gradation and a scientifically designed mix ratio. Furthermore, by controlling the type II high-activity admixtures and additives of the ultra-high strength cement-based material, the material exhibits advantages such as high strength, excellent durability, and resistance to aging. It also overcomes the shortcomings of conventional ultra-high strength cement-based materials and ultra-high toughness cement-based materials, which require high-temperature steam curing (80–200℃) and stringent process requirements. This method achieves ultra-high strength cement-based materials with a compressive strength greater than 140 MPa and a fracture toughness greater than 20 kJ / m² after 28 days of standard curing at room temperature on-site. 2 The ultra-high toughness cement-based material meets the application index requirements for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint projects.
[0030] (4) The present invention provides a method for improving the quality of bridge expansion joint engineering. The method uses ultra-high toughness cement-based material to fill the bottom structure of the transition zone of the bridge expansion joint. The ultra-high toughness cement-based material is based on the principle of the closest packing, with optimized gradation and scientifically designed mix ratio. Furthermore, by controlling the type I high-activity admixture and additives of the ultra-high toughness cement-based material, the ultra-high toughness cement-based material has strain hardening characteristics, excellent bending strength and bending toughness, and significantly reduces the risk of the lower structure of the transition zone cracking due to the positive bending moment.
