Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for pouring and maintaining a temperature-controlling prefabricated coarse aggregate ultra-high performance concrete bridge deck in a high-temperature environment, and is applicable to the field of production technology for prefabricated concrete components. Background Art

[0002] In the field of building materials, concrete is the most widely used one, and its performance directly affects the safety and durability of building structures. Among them, Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is widely used in super high-rise buildings, large infrastructure and other structures due to its high strength, high toughness and high durability. However, the pouring and maintenance of UHPC in high temperature environment is a problem, because high temperature will significantly accelerate the hydration reaction of cement, causing the temperature inside the concrete to rise faster and higher, which will further cause the concrete to crack.

[0003] At present, there are measures such as adjusting the mix ratio of UHPC, using low-heat cement, adding mineral admixtures such as fly ash, and using high-efficiency water reducing agents to reduce the hydration heat of concrete, thereby slowing down and reducing the internal temperature rise of concrete. In addition, phase change materials can be added during the preparation of UHPC to use their heat absorption and heat release characteristics during the phase change process to adjust the internal temperature of concrete.

[0004] However, existing solutions require major adjustments to the mix ratio of concrete, which will affect the strength and durability of the concrete. Phase change materials will also cause dispersion and stability problems in concrete. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems of reduced strength and durability caused by traditional ultra-high performance concrete casting and maintenance temperature control methods, as well as the dispersion and stability problems caused by adding phase change materials. A method for casting and maintaining temperature control of prefabricated coarse aggregate ultra-high performance concrete bridge decks in a high-temperature environment is provided. The method can avoid concrete cracking caused by concrete hydration heat while ensuring the strength and durability of ultra-high performance concrete bridge decks. The method can be widely used in the field of concrete prefabricated component production technology.
