Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of freeze-thaw test devices, and in particular to a freeze-thaw test device for a plateau railway concrete structure exposure test field and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Chinese scholars have always paid great attention to the freeze-thaw damage of concrete structural materials. It can be said that freeze-thaw cycles are one of the biggest causes of damage to concrete structures. Domestic and foreign researchers have conducted extensive and in-depth research on the freeze-thaw damage and deterioration of concrete structures, and proposed many theories and models to explain the damage and deterioration mechanism of concrete under different freeze-thaw environments, mainly including: hydrostatic pressure theory, osmotic pressure theory, crystallization pressure theory, temperature stress hypothesis, critical water saturation theory, frost heave pressure theory, micro-ice crystal lens model theory, water segregation and stratification theory, flushing coefficient theory, pore structure theory, etc. These theoretical models provide a strong theoretical reference for analyzing the deterioration of concrete under different freeze-thaw environments. However, these studies are all based on the research of indoor test environment of concrete, and there are few studies on the performance of concrete in outdoor exposure environment.
[0003] It is generally believed that the freeze-thaw failure mechanism of structural concrete is quite different in indoor test environment and outdoor exposure environment. Under indoor laboratory environment, the test freeze-thaw system is an accelerated test, the degradation factor set in the test is single and has a strong effect; while outdoor structural concrete is in a natural freeze-thaw environment, the effect is more in line with natural laws, and the damage to concrete materials is more in line with actual service conditions.
[0004] Therefore, carrying out freeze-thaw tests on concrete in exposed environments has great theoretical significance and application value. It can be seen that the freeze-thaw test system for concrete is relatively complex and requires a large number of freeze-thaw cycles. To ensure the smooth progress of this test, if manual methods are used, a large amount of manpower, material resources and financial resources are required.
[0005] The present invention proposes a freeze-thaw test device and method for a plateau railway concrete structure exposure test field, which can realize the automation of concrete freeze-thaw tests in an exposure environment. While ensuring the accuracy of the test, it can also save manpower, material and financial resources, and provide equipment support for the research on the freeze-thaw theory and failure mechanism of structural concrete. Summary of the invention
[0006] The invention provides a freeze-thaw test device for a plateau railway concrete structure exposure test field, which solves the technical problems that the existing freeze-thaw test device for railway concrete exposure test field has a complex structure, cumbersome operation and requires a large amount of manpower, physical and financial resources.
[0007] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above technical problems is as follows: a freeze-thaw test device for a plateau railway concrete structure exposure test field, comprising: a freeze-thaw test box, a water storage tank, a temperature sensor and a one-way switch valve,
[0008] The top surface of the freeze-thaw test box is open and a plurality of concrete test samples are placed on its inner bottom surface; the water storage tank is filled with test water and is connected to the freeze-thaw test box through a water pipe, and the horizontal height of the water storage tank is higher than the horizontal height of the freeze-thaw test box; the temperature sensor is fixed on the inner wall of the freeze-thaw test box; and the one-way switch valve is fixed in the water pipe.
[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: a freeze-thaw test device for a concrete exposure test field is newly designed, and concrete test samples are first spaced apart on the inner bottom surface of a freeze-thaw test box, and then test water is introduced into the freeze-thaw test box through a water storage tank. Since a temperature sensor is fixed in the freeze-thaw test box and a one-way switch valve is fixed in a water pipe, and since the horizontal height of the water storage tank is higher than the horizontal height of the freeze-thaw test box, temperature control and automatic quantitative water replenishment of the concrete exposure environment freeze-thaw test can be achieved, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the exposure environment freeze-thaw test.
[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a plurality of sample pads, which are spaced apart and placed on the inner bottom surface of the freeze-thaw test box; and a plurality of the concrete test samples are placed on the plurality of sample pads respectively.
[0012] A further beneficial effect of adopting the above method is that placing the concrete test sample on a plurality of sample pads can prevent the concrete test sample from directly contacting the inner bottom surface of the freeze-thaw test box, thereby preventing the concrete test sample from being bumped.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a first water level sensor, which is fixed on the inner wall of the freeze-thaw test box.
[0014] A further beneficial effect of adopting the above method is that by fixing the first water level sensor on the inner wall of the freeze-thaw test box, the amount of test water inside the freeze-thaw test box can be monitored in real time to avoid too little test water in the freeze-thaw test box.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a second water level sensor, which is fixed on the inner wall of the water tank.
[0016] A further beneficial effect of adopting the above method is that by fixing the second water level sensor on the inner wall of the water tank, the amount of test water in the water tank can be monitored in real time, and the test water can be added to the water tank in time.
[0017] In addition, a plateau railway concrete freeze-thaw test method is provided, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0018] S1. Place the freeze-thaw test device outdoors and ensure that it is dry and rainproof;
[0019] S2. Place the concrete test sample on the inner bottom surface of the exposed freeze-thaw test box, with a total of 4 test pieces placed at a distance of 5 cm from each other;
[0020] S3, add test water to the water tank, the water level is 20cm to 30cm higher than the position of the second water level sensor;
[0021] S4. Open the one-way switch valve to ensure that the water in the water storage tank can smoothly enter the freeze-thaw test chamber, and ensure that the distance between the water surface of the freeze-thaw test chamber and the upper edge of the concrete test sample is 20 cm to 30 cm. At this time, since the water surface height of the water storage tank is parallel to the horizontal height of the freeze-thaw test chamber, the test water in the water storage tank no longer flows into the freeze-thaw test chamber;
[0022] S5. During the test, when the water level in the freeze-thaw test box is lower than the first water level sensor, water is added to the freeze-thaw test box from the water storage tank; when the water level in the water storage tank is lower than the second water level sensor, the second water level sensor alarms to prompt manual water addition, so as to ensure the water level in the freeze-thaw test box;
[0023] S6. During the test, real-time data from the temperature sensor can be extracted and stored in a timely manner;
[0024] S7. When the preset time or the preset number of freeze-thaw cycles is reached, the one-way switch valve is closed, the concrete test sample is taken out, and subsequent concrete performance tests are carried out. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
