Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to a material evaluation method and relates to a testing device and method for the shrinkage cracking toughness resistance of pavement cementing materials. Background Art

[0002] Asphalt mixture, cement concrete and other road cementing materials have been widely used in the surface and base layers of highways at all levels. When the road cementing base is completed, it shrinks and deforms due to temperature changes or water evaporation, forming internal stress inside the structure, causing microcracks, shrinkage cracks, and then destroying the overall structure of the road. Therefore, for road materials, accurately evaluating their toughness against shrinkage cracking is of great significance to ensure the durability of asphalt pavement and semi-rigid base structure.

[0003] At present, the evaluation of the shrinkage performance of pavement cementing materials is mainly based on the shrinkage test method of inorganic binder stabilized materials T0854-2024 in the "Test Code for Inorganic Binder Stabilized Materials for Highway Engineering" (JTG 3441-2024). This method mainly uses a displacement meter to test the change of the length of the beam-type specimen under a specific environment with the shrinkage time, and then obtains its shrinkage strain and shrinkage coefficient as the evaluation index for evaluating the shrinkage performance of inorganic binder stabilized materials. Although the existing specifications use displacement sensors and data acquisition systems to improve the measurement precision and accuracy, the existing test equipment and methods still have some drawbacks in shrinkage performance testing, and there is still room for improvement in its test accuracy. The main reasons are as follows:

[0004] (1) The shrinkage coefficient is used as the ratio of shrinkage strain to water loss rate. During the test, the test specimen must be frequently removed from the shrinkage instrument for weighing. The test specimen is frequently disturbed, which destroys its natural shrinkage state and affects the measurement precision and accuracy.

[0005] (2) The existing test method uses a beam-type specimen and only measures the shrinkage strain in the long axis direction. The actual shrinkage of pavement cementing materials is the result of the superposition of the longitudinal and transverse directions in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the existing test specimens and methods are difficult to reflect their actual usage conditions. In addition, since pavement stabilization materials such as cement are spatially discrete to a certain extent, there are certain differences in the performance of each specimen, and the shrinkage performance of each specimen will also be different. The applicability of the measurement method cannot be guaranteed by the parallel measurement method.

[0006] (3) The existing evaluation methods mainly use the shrinkage coefficient as the evaluation index of shrinkage performance, but this is a deformation index and cannot reflect the true mechanical properties of the material;

[0007] (4) In the existing test, the test specimen needs to be installed again after each weighing, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, the installation error of the displacement sensor will also have a certain impact on the test results, making it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the final test results of the shrinkage coefficient.

[0008] In summary, there are major deficiencies in the existing testing methods and result evaluation of pavement bonding materials, which cannot reflect the true mechanical properties of the materials, resulting in reduced accuracy of shrinkage performance test results, and poor scientificity and rationality. Summary of the invention

[0009] In view of the technical problems described in the above background technology that there are major deficiencies in the testing methods and result evaluation of pavement bonding materials, which cannot reflect the true mechanical properties of the materials, resulting in reduced accuracy of shrinkage performance test results, and poor scientificity and rationality, the present invention provides a testing device and method for the shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement bonding materials.

[0010] In the test, the present invention collects the load data F at each time point. i and shape variable data l i , the shrinkage cracking toughness of the test specimen is calculated, which is used as an evaluation index to characterize the anti-shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement bonding materials. It can truly reflect the mechanical properties of the material, realize the accurate simulation of the shrinkage state of pavement bonding materials, and improve the accuracy, scientificity and rationality of the test results.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0082] Central computer 5: connected to temperature control device 11, humidity control device 12, environment controller 13 and shrinkage monitoring component 3 respectively, for receiving temperature, humidity, shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data, and processing the collected data to calculate shrinkage cracking toughness SCT.

[0083] See also Figure 1The testing device for the shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement cementing materials provided in this embodiment includes a testing box 1, a fixed base plate 2, a shrinkage monitoring component 3, a plate specimen 4 and a central computer 5.

[0084] See also Figure 2 In this embodiment, the test box 1 is a rectangular box, and a top cover 16 is provided on the top of the test box 1. The top cover 16 is provided with left and right parts, and the top cover 16 is closed by a slide 17 on the upper edge of the test box.

[0085] In this embodiment, the fixed bottom plate 2 is located in the test box 1, and the shrinkage monitoring component 3 is connected to the fixed bottom plate 2 and the plate test piece 4 respectively, and is used to fix the plate test piece 4 and measure the shrinkage deformation and shrinkage stress of the plate test piece 4. The shrinkage deformation and shrinkage stress measurement signals are processed by the amplifier 31 and transmitted to the central computer 5 through the connecting line 51 for storage.

[0086] In this embodiment, a temperature control device 11 and a humidity control device 12 are installed in the test box 1. The temperature control device 11 and the humidity control device 12 are respectively connected to an environmental controller 13 placed outside the test box 1. A temperature sensor 14 and a humidity sensor 15 are also provided in the test box 1. The environmental controller 13, the temperature sensor 14, and the humidity sensor 15 are all connected to the central computer 5.

[0087] Specifically, the temperature sensor 14 collects temperature condition data in the test box 1, and the humidity sensor 15 collects humidity condition data in the test box 1. After being processed and analyzed by the central computer 5, the instructions are transmitted to the environmental controller 13. The environmental controller 13 controls the working status of the temperature control device 11 and the humidity control device 12 until the temperature and humidity conditions in the test box 1 reach the target set values.

[0088] See also Figure 3 In this embodiment, the plate specimen 4 is composed of a pavement bonding material specimen 41 and an anchoring side wall 42. The pavement bonding material specimen 41 is a square specimen, and the anchoring side walls 42 are correspondingly arranged on the four side walls of the pavement bonding material specimen 41.

[0089] It is particularly noted that the length of the anchoring side wall 42 is smaller than the side length of the pavement bonding material sample 41 to prevent adjacent anchoring side walls 42 from colliding with each other during the shrinkage of the pavement bonding material sample 41 and affecting the natural shrinkage deformation process of the pavement bonding material sample 41.

[0090] See also Figure 4Preferably, the anchoring side wall 42 is composed of a convex substrate 421 and an end-enlarged anchor rod 422. The convex substrate 421 is located on the surrounding side walls of the pavement cementing material sample 41 and is embedded in the edge of the pavement cementing material sample 41 through the end-enlarged anchor rod 422. Preferably, the convex substrate 421 is a metal plate with a convex cross-section.

[0091] In this embodiment, the fixed bottom plate 2 is located at the bottom of the test box 1. Four fixed columns 21 are provided on the fixed bottom plate 2. Rings 22 are installed on the fixed columns 21. The rings 22 can slide freely up and down along the axis of the fixed columns 21. A ball joint 23 is provided on the rings 22.

[0092] See also Figure 1 In this embodiment, the shrinkage monitoring assembly 3 includes a deformation testing unit 32 and a boundary fixing unit 33, and the deformation testing unit 32 and the boundary fixing unit 33 are arranged on opposite side walls of the plate specimen 4 in a facing manner.

[0093] See also Figure 6 Specifically, the deformation test unit 32 includes a strain gauge sensor 321, a first connecting screw 322, and a second connecting screw 323. The two ends of the first connecting screw 322 are respectively connected to the strain gauge sensor 321 and the convex base plate 421, and the two ends of the second connecting screw 323 are respectively connected to the strain gauge sensor 321 and the ball joint 23. The first connecting screw 322, the strain gauge sensor 321, and the second connecting screw 323 are connected in sequence. When the pavement cementing material sample 41 undergoes shrinkage deformation, the convex base plate 421 of the anchoring side wall 42 is driven to move. Due to the limiting effect of the fixed column 21, the first connecting screw 322 and the second connecting screw 323 reversely stretch the strain gauge sensor 321. The strain gauge sensor 321 generates deformation and load data signals, which are processed by the amplifier 31 and transmitted to the central computer 5 through the connecting line 51.

[0094] See also Figure 7 In this embodiment, the boundary fixing unit 33 is used to limit the movement of the plate-type specimen 4. The boundary fixing unit 33 is provided with a third connecting screw 331. The two ends of the third connecting screw 331 are respectively connected to the convex base plate 421 and the ball joint 23.

[0095] In this embodiment, in order to improve the measurement accuracy, it is necessary to measure the shrinkage deformation and shrinkage load in two directions of the plate specimen 4. Therefore, the shrinkage monitoring assembly 3 is divided into two, namely, a transverse shrinkage monitoring assembly and a longitudinal shrinkage monitoring assembly respectively connected to the central computer 5.

[0096] The transverse shrinkage monitoring component is placed in the transverse direction of the plate specimen 4, and is used to monitor the shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data of the plate specimen 4 in the transverse direction; the longitudinal shrinkage monitoring component is placed in the longitudinal direction of the plate specimen 4, and is used to monitor the shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data of the plate specimen 4 in the longitudinal direction.

[0097] In the transverse shrinkage monitoring assembly, the deformation testing unit 32 and the boundary fixing unit 33 are respectively arranged on opposite side walls of the plate-type specimen 4 in the transverse direction.

[0098] In the longitudinal shrinkage monitoring assembly, the deformation testing unit 32 and the boundary fixing unit 33 are respectively arranged on opposite side walls of the plate specimen 4 in the longitudinal direction.

[0099] See also Figure 5 In this embodiment, the plate-type specimen 4 is prepared in a molding test mold 43, and a slot 431 is left on the four side walls of the molding test mold 43, and the cross-sectional shape of the slot 431 matches the convex substrate 421. In particular, during the molding process of the plate-type specimen 4, the four convex substrates 421 are first placed in the slots 431 on the four side walls of the molding test mold 43, and then the road surface cementing material is filled in the molding test mold 43, and the asphalt mixture wheel roller molding machine is used to perform rolling molding according to the set compaction work.

[0100] It is particularly noted that the molding thickness and side length of the plate specimen 4 can be selected according to the needs of the project. During the molding process of the plate specimen 4, the pavement bonding material is first configured according to the designed ratio, and its maximum dry density is determined according to the compaction test method of inorganic binder stabilized materials T0804-1994 in the "Test Code for Inorganic Binder Stabilized Materials for Highway Engineering" (JTG 3441-2024). Then, the maximum dry density and the volume of the molding test mold 43 are used to calculate the mass required for molding the pavement bonding material sample 41, which is weighed and placed in the molding test mold 43 for rolling.

[0101] It is particularly noted that in order to allow the plate-type specimen 4 to be better removed from the molding mold 43 after molding, the molding mold 43 containing the plate-type specimen 4 can be inverted on a flat plate, and then the bottom of the molding mold 43 can be knocked to allow the plate-type specimen 4 to be separated from the molding mold 43 to ensure the integrity of the plate-type specimen 4.

[0102] It is particularly noted that the temperature control device 11 and the humidity control device 12 can not only realize the regulation of temperature and humidity in the test box 1, but can also be used to simulate various actual use environments such as plateaus, severe cold, and extreme heat, to achieve an accurate assessment of the shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement cementing materials.

[0103] It is particularly noted that the top cover 16 is preferably made of double-layer tempered glass to achieve transparency and heat preservation functions, making it easy for the tester to observe the test situation inside the test box 1.

[0104] It is particularly noted that a plurality of anchor rods 422 with enlarged ends are provided on the inner side of the anchoring side wall 42. The enlarged ends of the anchor rods 422 help to strengthen the bond between the anchoring side wall 42 and the pavement bonding material sample 41, thereby preventing the anchoring side wall 42 from falling off and slipping during the shrinkage deformation of the pavement bonding material sample 41, thereby affecting the test accuracy.

[0105] It is particularly noted that the fixed base plate 2 is a metal plate. In order to reduce the friction between the plate specimen 4 and the fixed base plate 2 when shrinking and to affect the natural shrinkage deformation process of the pavement bonding material sample 41, it is advisable to first coat paraffin on the fixed base plate 2 and then place the plate specimen 4.

[0106] The device provided in this embodiment can adjust the ambient temperature and humidity in real time according to actual needs to simulate the level of anti-shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement cementing materials under real conditions.

[0107] Example 2

[0108] This embodiment provides a method for testing the shrinkage cracking toughness of pavement cementing materials, comprising the following steps:

[0109] S1. Test specimen preparation

[0110] The pavement bonding materials are molded and cured to obtain test specimens.

[0111] Specifically, the specific process of test specimen production is:

[0112] 1) Forming of plate specimen 4

[0113] A square plate specimen is prepared indoors. Specifically, a pavement cementing material is formed using a square plate to obtain a plate specimen 4.

[0114] 2) Maintenance

[0115] The plate specimen 4 was cured according to the standard curing method T0845 in JTG 3441-2024, and the curing period was 7 days. In the last day of the curing period, the plate specimen 4 was saturated with water for 24 hours. Finally, the surface of the saturated plate specimen 4 was wiped dry for standby use. The cured plate specimen 4 is the test specimen.

[0116] S2. Test specimen installation

[0117] An anti-friction coating is applied on the fixed bottom plate 2 of the test device, and a test specimen is placed on the anti-friction coating and installed and fixed.

[0118] Specifically, paraffin is coated on the fixed bottom plate 2 of the test box 1, and the cured plate specimen 4 (i.e., the test specimen) is placed on the fixed bottom plate 2. The convex base plate 421 is connected to the fixed column 21 using the first connecting screw 322, the second connecting screw 323, and the third connecting screw 331 to achieve installation and fixation of the plate specimen 4.

[0119] S3. Shrinkage cracking toughness test

[0120] Adjust the temperature and humidity of the test device, monitor the real-time data of the test specimen during the shrinkage deformation process through the shrinkage monitoring component 3, and collect the real-time data signal once every interval ΔT until the set time is reached; obtain the shrinkage load data F corresponding to the test specimen at the i-th collection i and shrinkage deformation data l i .

[0121] In step S3, each time data is collected, the shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data in the transverse direction of the test specimen, and the shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data in the longitudinal direction are obtained respectively.

[0122] Specifically, the temperature and humidity of the test box 1 are set by the central computer 5, the automatic working procedures of the deformation test unit 32, the environmental controller 13, the temperature sensor 14, and the humidity sensor 15 are turned on, the reading of the strain gauge sensor 321 is reset to zero, the equipment is started, and the shrinkage crack toughness test operation and real-time information collection are performed. The load data F of the strain gauge sensor 321 is recorded by the central computer 5 every time interval ΔT. i and shape variable data l i , until 168 hours of real-time monitoring is completed.

[0123] S4. Calculation of shrinkage cracking toughness

[0124] The shrinkage load data F collected above i and shrinkage deformation data l i , substitute into the following calculation formula to calculate the shrinkage cracking toughness SCT:

[0125]

[0126] Where:

[0127] SCT is shrinkage cracking toughness, J / cm 2 ;

[0128] N is the total number of times the shrinkage load data reaches the peak value during the shrinkage deformation process, times;

[0129] F i is the shrinkage load value of the test specimen at the i-th collection, N;

[0130] l i is the shrinkage deformation value of the test specimen during the i-th collection, mm;

[0131] l i-1 is the shrinkage deformation value of the test specimen during the i-1th collection, mm;

[0132] S is the cross-sectional area of ​​the test specimen, cm 2 .

[0133] In this embodiment, the shrinkage load value and the shrinkage deformation value of the test specimen are both obtained by testing the strain gauge sensor 321. The cross-sectional area of ​​the test specimen is the cross-sectional area of ​​the pavement cementing material sample 41.

[0134] In step S4, the specific method for calculating the shrinkage cracking toughness is:

[0135] Substituting the shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data in the transverse direction into the shrinkage cracking toughness calculation formula, the shrinkage cracking toughness in the transverse direction is obtained;

[0136] The shrinkage load data and shrinkage deformation data in the longitudinal direction are used to obtain the shrinkage cracking toughness in the longitudinal direction;

[0137] Compare the shrinkage cracking toughness in the transverse direction with the shrinkage cracking toughness in the longitudinal direction, and take the minimum value as the calculation result of the shrinkage cracking toughness.

[0138] It is particularly noted that two sets of load data and deformation data of the strain gauge sensor 321 can be obtained for each test. Considering that the pavement cementing material sample 41 has directionality when shrinking, the test data set with the earliest fracture is taken as the most unfavorable situation to evaluate the shrinkage cracking resistance of the test sample. Therefore, the shrinkage cracking toughness in the transverse direction and the shrinkage cracking toughness in the longitudinal direction are compared, and the minimum value is taken as the calculation result of the shrinkage cracking toughness.

[0139] In particular, the shrinkage cracking toughness (SCT) indicates the ability of pavement cementing materials to resist deformation and fracture under shrinkage. The SCT value indicates the toughness of pavement cementing materials.

[0140] In this embodiment, a plurality of different pavement cementing material samples 41 are prepared and their shrinkage cracking toughness SCT is calculated. It is found that as the shrinkage cracking toughness SCT value increases, the toughness of the pavement cementing material increases, that is, the toughness of the pavement cementing material is positively correlated with the shrinkage cracking toughness SCT. Therefore, the shrinkage cracking toughness SCT can be used to evaluate the shrinkage cracking toughness of different pavement cementing materials in the future.

[0141] It is particularly noted that for the same material, the shrinkage cracking toughness SCT should be a certain value, which can facilitate the comparative analysis of the shrinkage cracking resistance of various materials.

[0142] It is particularly noted that the measurement of the shrinkage cracking toughness is automatically completed through the programming control software of the central computer 5, thereby reducing the operating errors of personnel.

[0143] The above characterization of the anti-cracking shrinkage toughness of pavement bonding materials by calculating the shrinkage cracking toughness can truly reflect the mechanical properties of the materials, achieve accurate simulation of the shrinkage state of pavement bonding materials, and improve the accuracy, scientificity and rationality of the test results; and then the size of the shrinkage cracking toughness is used to evaluate the toughness of pavement bonding materials.

[0144] In addition, in the test process of this embodiment, the shrinkage load data F collected for the i-th time is i and shrinkage deformation data l i , with the shrinkage deformation data l i is the horizontal axis, with the shrinkage load data F i As the vertical axis, the shrinkage load-shrinkage deformation curve is also plotted.

[0145] See also Figure 8 From the shrinkage load-deformation curve, it can be seen that the load and deformation values ​​first increase and then decrease with the increase of shrinkage test time. In the growth stage of the curve, as the shrinkage progresses, the load and deformation values ​​gradually increase, and the shrinkage stress inside the specimen also gradually increases; when the shrinkage stress reaches the allowable strength of the material, the plate specimen cracks and breaks, and the shrinkage stress inside the specimen is released, thus reducing the load and deformation values.

[0146] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above descriptions, and it is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived from these are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
