Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a reinforcement construction method for a reinforced concrete column, in particular to an FRP sleeve reinforcement construction method for a reinforced concrete column, and belongs to the technical field of maintenance and reinforcement construction of water supply and drainage projects in the fields of civil engineering, bridge engineering, ancient buildings, and hydraulic engineering. Background Art

[0002] The bearing capacity and durability of reinforced concrete columns such as frame columns in existing buildings, piers in bridges, and supporting columns of water aqueducts will be reduced during long-term service due to the influence of harsh external environment and human factors, so there is a large demand for reinforcement and repair. The traditional reinforcement methods mainly include increasing the cross-section reinforcement method and external bonding steel reinforcement method. The increasing cross-section method can effectively improve the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns, but at the same time it increases the deadweight and stiffness of the components, which will increase the seismic effects on the structure and is not conducive to earthquake resistance. The steel-cladding method effectively improves the bearing capacity of reinforced concrete columns by externally cladding steel plates, but in adverse environments, the external steel plates will rust, affecting the durability of the overall structure.

[0003] Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) is a new generation of high-efficiency energy-saving materials, and is the focus of research and development in my country, including manufacturing and application. FRP has the excellent characteristics of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance, and has been widely used in the field of seismic reinforcement and reinforcement of civil engineering. According to the different fiber reinforcements, FRP can be divided into glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP), carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), aramid fiber reinforced plastic (AFRP), basalt fiber reinforced plastic (BFRP), etc. The FRP reinforcement method of columns that has emerged in recent years is easy to construct. The internal concrete is in a three-dimensional stress state under the constraint of the external FRP. Especially in seismic reinforcement, it can greatly improve the displacement ductility of the column without basically increasing the bending strength of the column, and improve the energy consumption capacity, and has been promoted and applied.

[0004] Compared with the use of multiple FRP sleeve belts or FRP strips, the use of a whole FRP sleeve can provide more effective lateral support for the internal concrete and better durability protection for the concrete, and should be promoted and applied first.

[0005] The general FRP outsourcing reinforcement method will make the stress of the FRP material lag behind the original structure. Only through prestressing can the internal force distribution of the original structure be changed and the stress-strain lag phenomenon be eliminated. The prestress generated in the FRP material by pouring micro-expansion concrete is too small; the longitudinal tensioning method along the winding direction, considering the large friction resistance, requires a large tensioning force, and has high requirements for tensioning equipment and construction. In addition, the construction sequence of tensioning first and then anchoring is adopted, and the setting of the anchor end is cumbersome, which greatly increases the difficulty of construction; the method of tensioning the transverse prestress at the vertical joint, the anchor end and the anchor are exposed on the column surface without a protective layer, which not only increases the shape of the column and affects the appearance, but also the loose joints affect the durability protection of the internal concrete, which is easy to fail in the natural environment and has low durability.

[0006] Therefore, finding a new method to apply transverse prestress to the entire FRP sleeve has important engineering application value. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention develops a FRP sleeve reinforcement construction method for reinforced concrete columns, the purpose of which is to allow ordinary workers to reinforce reinforced concrete columns with FRP sleeves through less complicated operations, and the FRP sleeves have circumferential prestressing.

[0008] The FRP sleeve reinforcement construction method of the reinforced concrete column of the present invention comprises the following specific steps:

[0009] S1. Construction preparation: prepare splitting rods, FRP coils and corresponding adhesives; make pipe segments, and the bottom surface of the pipe segments extends out the connecting steel bars;

[0010] S2. Surface treatment of reinforced concrete columns: grinding the surface of the reinforced concrete columns to expose the internal concrete and make the surface rough; finely treating and grinding the position where the splitting rods are placed to make the surface flat or round;

[0011] S3. Install the pipe segments: drill holes around the reinforced concrete column on its supporting surface, inject glue into the holes, install the pipe segments, and extend the connecting steel bars of the pipe segments into the holes;

[0012] S4, making FRP sleeve: brushing adhesive on the outer surface of the pipe segment, wrapping FRP cloth, forming FRP layer; repeating the operation until the FRP layer reaches the specified number of layers, forming FRP sleeve;

[0013] S5. Apply prestress: Place multiple splitting rods with protective tubes vertically into the gap between the pipe segment and the reinforced concrete column; the splitting rods push the pipe segment to make the entire FRP sleeve have annular prestress, and the corresponding strain is,

[0014]

[0017] D is the thickness of the segment;

[0018] Δ is the radial outward thrust of the splitting rod on the segment;

[0019] S6. Casting of cast-in-place layer: inject structural adhesive into the gap between the bottom surface of the segment and the supporting surface of the segment; pour concrete in the gap outside the protective tube of the splitting rod. After the concrete reaches the predetermined strength, withdraw the splitting rod, pull out the protective tube, and pour concrete in the remaining hole.

[0020] Preferably, the pipe segments are prefabricated using ultra-high performance concrete.

[0021] Preferably, the splitting rod is in the shape of an elongated strip, with a plurality of splitting heads extending from one side along the length direction; and the splitting heads are spaced at equal intervals.

[0027] Preferably, one side of the splitting head of the splitting rod faces the reinforced concrete column.

[0028] Preferably, the construction step is increased,

[0029] S7. FRP sleeve protection treatment: Adhesive and mortar are sprayed on the surface of the FRP sleeve, or paint is directly used with the same color as the original pier concrete, and sprayed in layers and multiple times to form a protective layer.

[0030] The FRP sleeve in the technical solution of the present invention is made of FRP cloth, the fibers of which are continuous fibers, and the material is any one of carbon fiber, glass fiber, aramid fiber or basalt fiber, or a combination thereof. The FRP cloth is unidirectional cloth or bidirectional cloth.

[0031] The beneficial effects of the present invention include the following aspects:

[0032] (1) The technical solution of the present invention adopts the FRP sleeve method to strengthen the reinforced concrete column. The high-strength FRP material has prestress, which can effectively constrain the internal concrete, so that the concrete is in a three-dimensional stress state, thereby improving the bearing capacity of the column;

[0033] (2) The FRP sleeve of the present invention has no external connectors such as clamps and anchors, and no butt joints, and has a simple and beautiful appearance after reinforcement;

It has strong adaptability to construction sites and a wide range of applications.

[0036] (5) The present invention connects the prefabricated pipe segments with the support of the reinforced concrete column, so that the pipe segments and the support are integrated, thereby enhancing the bending and shear bearing capacity of the bottom of the reinforced concrete column;

[0037] (6) The prefabricated segments of the present invention are made of ultra-high performance concrete and combined with high-performance FRP materials, which can effectively improve the bearing internal force and seismic performance of the reinforced concrete columns after reinforcement;

[0039] (8) By adding expansion agent to cast-in-place concrete, the volume shrinkage of concrete during the hardening process can be avoided. After the concrete expands slightly, it can be more strongly bonded to the reinforced concrete column and the pipe segment, and the prestress value in the outer FRP sleeve can be increased, which can greatly improve the bending, shear and torsion resistance of the reinforced section, making it easier to achieve the optimal design of the reinforcement effect;

[0040] (9) The present invention closely combines prefabrication, cast-in-place and prestressing technologies to successfully achieve the technical goals. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
