Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of mechanical performance testing of steel tube concrete structures, and in particular to an intelligent testing device and method for long-term load and corrosion of steel tube concrete arch rib components. Background Art

[0002] During the service life of long-span CFST arch bridges, especially top-supported CFST arch bridges, CFST arch rib components are subject to long-term vertical loads applied at multiple points due to loads from the arch columns. Long-term vertical loads can easily cause shrinkage and creep of the core concrete of the arch ribs, leading to concrete cracks and stress redistribution across the cross-section of the arch rib components. This increases stress on the steel tubes and causes structural deformation, significantly impacting the overall mechanical properties of the structure, and thus its safety and durability. Therefore, long-term loads further complicate the working mechanism and stress characteristics of CFST arch bridges. At the same time, for long-span CFST arch bridge structures in offshore and coastal areas, CFST arch rib components are also subject to corrosion and other effects during their service life. Steel tube concrete arch ribs are exposed to the humid coastal environment for a long time and are easily corroded by corrosive media such as chloride ions, sulfates, and carbon dioxide, which leads to the destruction of the passivation film of the steel tube, rust of the steel tube, thinning of the wall thickness, reduction of the effective cross-section, weakening of the restraint effect on the core concrete, reducing the contact pressure between the steel tube and the core concrete, and thus weakening the bearing capacity of the structure; even during the service life of the steel tube concrete arch ribs, they may be affected by the combined effects of marine atmosphere, industrial atmosphere, and dry-wet cycle corrosion in the splash zone (mostly occurring at the arch foot), which will have an adverse effect on the safe service of the structure.

[0003] It can be seen that long-term loads and corrosion are key factors affecting the mechanical properties of CFST arch bridges in offshore and coastal areas. To clarify their working mechanism, a reasonable and feasible test device is urgently needed to conduct experimental studies on arched CFST structures under the coupled effects of "long-term load + corrosion". Commonly used "long-term load + corrosion" coupled test devices have the following inconveniences: First, existing long-term load test devices are mainly developed for linear CFST structures and are not suitable for applying long-term loads to arched CFST structures. In particular, it is difficult to simulate the long-term vertical loads transmitted to the arch ribs by the arch columns in top-decker CFST bridges. If a multi-point long bridge test loading system, reaction frame, and jack are used to apply long-term vertical loads to the arch ribs, there will be problems with the long-term use of the test system and jacks, which is not convenient for loading multiple specimens and has low efficiency. Second, it is difficult for existing test equipment to load the arch ribs to their ultimate bearing capacity without unloading the long-term vertical loads on the arch ribs. If the specimens are moved into a multi-point long bridge test loading system or other equipment for ultimate bearing capacity loading after the long-term loads are unloaded, it will be difficult to clarify the creep development mechanism of the steel tube concrete arch ribs under long-term loads, and thus it will be difficult to reveal the influence of long-term loads on the ultimate bearing capacity of the steel tube concrete arch ribs. Third, it is difficult for existing test equipment to apply spray corrosion (simulating dry-wet cycle corrosion in the splash zone) to the arch foot area of ​​the steel tube concrete arch ribs and salt spray corrosion (simulating marine atmospheric corrosion or industrial atmospheric corrosion) to the arch crown area at the same time, which deviates from the actual load or environmental conditions of the project. Fourth, it is difficult for existing test equipment to achieve precise and intelligent control of corrosion conditions such as the liquid level height and corrosion concentration of the corrosive liquid in the corrosion test of the steel tube concrete structure specimens in the corrosion tank, which restricts the precise realization of the test objectives.

[0004] In summary, there is an urgent need for a practical intelligent testing device to study the mechanical properties of steel tube concrete bridge arch rib components under long-term load + corrosion coupling. Summary of the Invention

The test device and test method can simulate the stress characteristics of steel tube concrete arch bridges under long-term load + corrosion, provide a stable and continuous loading environment, and reduce the problems of traditional test methods due to the limitations of time, site, load application mode and corrosion mode, which lead to the difficulty of testing, differences between load and corrosion environment conditions and actual projects. The present invention can effectively reproduce the mechanical behavior of actual steel tube concrete arch bridge projects in long-term service status under corrosive environments such as offshore and coastal areas, and provide more scientific and reliable test means for the optimization design, safety analysis and durability evaluation of bridges, thereby improving the service life and safety of engineering structures.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, a long-term load and corrosion intelligent testing device for steel tube concrete arch rib components includes a corrosion tank 2 and a load applying device.

[0056] The corrosion groove 2 is coated on the outside of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1. The corrosion groove 2 can be filled with or sprayed with a corrosive liquid 9. The corrosive liquid 9 can corrode the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1. Then, the corrosion test of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1 can be performed through the corrosion groove 2.

[0057] Wherein, the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1 includes a single-limb steel tube concrete arch rib specimen (such as Figure 2 As shown, round steel pipes or polygonal steel pipes are used as the main load-bearing members of the arch structure, multi-limbed steel pipe concrete truss hybrid arch test specimens (such as Figure 3 As shown, round steel pipes or polygonal steel pipes are used as the main load-bearing members of the arch structure, multi-limbed steel pipe concrete truss hybrid arch test specimens (such as Figure 4 As shown, round steel pipes or polygonal steel pipes are used as the main load-bearing members of the arch structure, multi-limbed steel pipe concrete truss hybrid arch test specimens (such as Figure 5 As shown, round steel pipes or polygonal steel pipes are used as the main load-bearing members of the arch structure, multi-limbed steel pipe concrete truss hybrid arch test specimens (such as

[0058] The application uses steel pipes with different cross-sectional shapes as the main load-bearing members of the arch bridge structure, which can balance the bearing capacity, construction difficulty and economy according to the specific engineering requirements, and provides a reasonable optimization scheme for the service performance of the steel pipe concrete arch rib member under long-term load and corrosion environment.

[0059] The corrosion tank 2 is wrapped outside the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1, which means that the corrosion tank 2 at least wraps part of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1. For example, if the test only focuses on the middle part of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1, the corrosion tank 2 can only wrap the middle part of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the corrosion tank 2 can wrap the entire area of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1, so that uniform corrosion can be performed on each position of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, the corrosion tank 2 can wrap the arch top and arch foot area of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1, so that spray corrosion (simulating splash zone dry-wet cycle corrosion) can be applied to the arch foot area of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1 while salt spray corrosion (simulating marine atmospheric corrosion or industrial atmospheric corrosion) is applied to the arch top area.

[0062] According to different test requirements, the corrosion liquid 9 can fill the corrosion tank 2, the filling rate of the corrosion liquid 9 can also be adjusted, or only a spray device can be arranged at part of the position of the corrosion tank 2 to perform local spraying. The corrosion liquid 9 can be replaced or supplemented regularly to ensure its concentration stability, and different solutes and corrosion liquid 9 with different mixing ratios can be used to simulate long-term corrosion under different environmental conditions.

[0063] Compared with the traditional device, the corrosion tank 2 has higher flexibility. It can realize the corrosion test research of the test specimen 1 in a short period by connecting an external direct current power supply 10, and can be modified to realize the corrosion influence test of the test specimen 1 under various types of marine environments such as the dry-wet cycle effect of seawater splash zone and the salt spray effect of marine atmosphere.

[0064] In one or more embodiments, the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1 is mounted on and fixed to the arch seat 5, and the corrosion groove 2 is firmly wrapped around the outside of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1. Both ends of the corrosion groove 2 can also be fixed to the arch seat 5. In a preferred embodiment, the corrosion groove 2 should be sealed to prevent the corrosion liquid 9 from flowing out and causing environmental damage.

[0065] The load applying device includes a plurality of load applying units, each of which is used to apply a long-term load to the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1, thereby enabling multi-point loading of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1.

[0066] The position and number of the load applying units are consistent with the position and number of the columns on the arch of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1, so as to truly simulate the long-term stress conditions of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1.

[0067] Each of the load applying units includes a screw 3 , a nut 4 , a loading end plate 6 , a loading block 7 , and a force transmission block 8 , and a long-term load is applied to the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1 through the loading block 7 .

[0068] There are two loading end plates 6, one of which is fixedly connected to the loading block 7, and the other is fixedly connected to the force transmission block 8. In an optional embodiment, the loading block 7 can be welded to the center of one loading end plate 6, and the force transmission block 8 can be welded to the center of the other loading end plate 6.

[0069] The loading block 7 is located above the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1, the first end of the loading block 7 is fixed to the loading end plate 6, and the second end of the loading block 7 passes through the corrosion groove 2 and fits tightly with the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1. Therefore, the shape of the second end of the loading block 7 should be consistent with the external shape of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1, and the shape of the second end of the loading block 7 should be cut according to the curvature of the steel tube concrete arch rib specimen 1.

[0070] The force transmission block 8 is located directly below the loading block 7. The first end of the force transmission block 8 is fixed to the loading end plate 6. The second end of the force transmission block 8 is tightly fitted with the corrosion groove 2. Therefore, the shape of the second end of the force transmission block 8 should be consistent with the external shape of the corrosion groove 2. The shape of the second end of the force transmission block 8 should be cut according to the curvature of the corrosion groove 2.

[0071] A plurality of the screw rods 3 are arranged through the corrosion tank 2, and the two ends of the screw rod 3 are fixedly installed on the loading end plate 6 through the nut 4. That is, a plurality of the screw rods 3 are arranged on the outer periphery of the loading block 7 and the force transmission block 8, and through the cooperation of the screw rod 3 and the nut 4, the loading block 7 can be pressed against the top of the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1, and the force transmission block 8 can be pressed against the bottom of the corrosion tank 2, so that the loading block 7 can apply force to the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1.

[0072] In a preferred scheme, the number of the screw rods 3 is 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12, and the screw rods 3 are uniformly distributed on the outer periphery of the loading block 7, so as to facilitate uniform loading of the loading block 7.

[0073] In a preferred scheme, the loading block 7 and the screw rod 3 inside the corrosion tank 2 are sprayed with waterproof paint.

[0074] In a preferred scheme, the installation method of the load applying unit is as follows:

[0075] According to the design of the loading position of the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1 and the corrosion tank 2, the loading block 7 and the force transmission block 8 are cut and processed, the loading block 7 is welded at the center of the upper loading end plate 6, and the force transmission block 8 is welded at the center of the lower loading end plate 6. The cutting and processing shape of the loading block 7 and the force transmission block 8 is designed according to the size of the corresponding concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1 and the corrosion tank 2, and needs to ensure that the processed loading block 7 and the force transmission block 8 can be tightly fitted with the design loading position of the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1 and the corrosion tank 2 respectively in the long-term load applying process. The screw rod 3 and the loading block 7 pass through the pre-cut and drilled position of the corrosion tank 2, the loading block 7 acts on the design position of the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1 through the corrosion tank 2, the force transmission block 8 acts on the design position of the corrosion tank 2, and the loading block 7 and the screw rod 3 inside the corrosion tank 2 are sprayed with waterproof paint. The nut 4 is tightened until the designed long-term load can be applied to the test piece, and the long-term load test is started.

[0076] By adjusting the tightness of the nut 4, the size of the load applied by the loading block 7 can be adjusted, so as to simulate the influence of different loads on the compression deformation resistance of the concrete-filled steel tube arch test piece 1, and more truly reflect the long-term bearing characteristics of the concrete-filled steel tube long-span arch bridge.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, each load applying unit further comprises a compression load sensor 14 for measuring the size of the compression load applied by the load applying unit, so as to facilitate adjustment of the size of the load applied by the loading block 7.

[0078] The long-term load application device based on screw loading of the present invention is compact and can realize multi-point loading of the steel tube concrete arch rib member 1. Different long-term loads can be designed for each loading point according to the load characteristics of the bridge. The function of adjusting the applied load size by loosening and tightening the external nut 4 simulates the influence of different loads on the compressive deformation capacity of the member, which can more realistically reflect the long-term load-bearing characteristics of the steel tube concrete long-span arch bridge.

[0079] The present invention is based on a long-term load application device for screw loading, which realizes the internal and external connection of the test piece through the loading end plate 6. It can also apply continuous long-term load while conducting corrosion tests to simulate the actual load-bearing conditions of steel tube concrete arch rib components, providing a strong reference basis for the load-bearing design of coastal large-span arch bridges and other projects.

[0080] The test apparatus and test method of the present invention can simulate the stress characteristics of a steel tube concrete arch bridge under long-term load and corrosion, providing a stable and continuous loading environment. This reduces the difficulties inherent in traditional testing methods due to limitations in time, site, load application method, and corrosion mode, as well as the differences between the load and corrosion environment conditions and actual projects. The present invention can effectively reproduce the mechanical behavior of actual steel tube concrete arch bridges in long-term service under corrosive environments such as offshore and coastal areas, providing a more scientific and reliable testing method for bridge optimization design, safety analysis, and durability assessment, thereby improving the service life and safety of engineering structures.

[0081] The new arched concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) long-term load and corrosion testing device and method proposed in this paper are capable of simulating diverse scenarios and accurately reflecting the deformation resistance and corrosion resistance of CFST long-span arch bridge structures during long-term operation. This not only provides a valuable reference for bridge design and construction, but also features a simple design and easy assembly, significantly lowering the research threshold. It provides a reliable testing method for durability assessment, service life prediction, and optimized design of CFST arch rib components, possessing significant engineering application value and academic research significance.

[0082] Example 2

[0083] Based on Example 1, this example further illustrates the etching tank 2.

[0084] like Figure 1 、 Figure 10As shown, in this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the corrosion tank 2 is consistent with that of the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1, for example, the cross sections of the corrosion tank 2 and the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1 are both square, to ensure uniform corrosion. The corrosion tank 2 can be used as a cathode plate, the inner surface of the corrosion tank 2 is connected to the cathode of the external DC power supply 10, and the steel pipe concrete arch test specimen 1 is connected to the anode of the external DC power supply 10, to carry out electrochemical accelerated corrosion test with the corrosion tank 2 instead of the cathode plate. The limit sensor 15 and the corrosion liquid concentration sensor 16 in the corrosion tank 2 are connected to the data acquisition terminal 18 through external wires, to respectively monitor the liquid level and the concentration of the corrosion liquid 9 in the corrosion tank 2 in real time.

[0085] In a preferred scheme, the corrosion tank 2 is a steel corrosion tank 2.

[0086] In a specific test, when carrying out electrochemical accelerated corrosion test, the corrosion liquid 9 can be poured into the corrosion tank 2, and then the external DC power supply 10 is connected, so that the corrosion test of the test specimen 1 can be realized in a short period of time through the external DC power supply 10.

[0087] In addition, through the data fed back to the data acquisition terminal 18 by the limit sensor 15 and the corrosion liquid concentration sensor 16, the computer carries out data processing, and feeds back the results to the control terminal, so that the liquid level and the concentration of the corrosion liquid 9 in the corrosion tank 2 can be automatically controlled. If the liquid level of the corrosion liquid 9 is higher or lower than the computer set range, the corrosion liquid 9 can be automatically pumped out or supplemented through the drain pipe 205 or the water inlet pipe 204, respectively. If the concentration of the corrosion liquid 9 is higher or lower than the computer set range, the diluted or high-concentration corrosion liquid 9 can be automatically supplemented into the corrosion tank 2 through the water inlet pipe 204, respectively. If the concentration of the corrosion liquid 9 is significantly lower than the computer set range as the loading time of the long-term load continues, the corrosion liquid 9 in the corrosion tank 2 can be periodically pumped out through the drain pipe 205 and new corrosion liquid 9 can be supplemented through the water inlet pipe 204 until the requirement is met.

[0088] Embodiment 3

[0089] On the basis of embodiment 1, the corrosion tank 2 is further described in this embodiment.

[0090] As shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 In this embodiment, the top of the corrosion tank 2 is provided with sharp corners and two inclined surfaces symmetrically formed, to ensure that the condensed water accumulated at the top can flow down along the inclined top and is not easy to directly drop on the test specimen, so as to avoid the condensate corrosion effect which does not exist in the actual salt spray corrosion working condition. The shape of the two sides and the bottom of the corrosion tank 2 can not be strictly limited.

[0091] The corrosion tank 2 includes a salt spray nozzle 201 , a spray head 202 , a drain port 203 , a water inlet pipe 204 and a drain pipe 205 .

[0092] A salt spray nozzle 201 is installed at the upper side of the corrosion tank 2, near the specimen arch, to protect the arch from salt spray corrosion while preventing direct corrosion by condensed salt water. The spray angle of the salt spray nozzle 201 is adjusted to spray obliquely upward from the specimen, thereby preventing the formation of cold condensed water on the specimen surface. A spray head 202 is installed at the lower side of the corrosion tank 2, near the specimen arch foot, to spray corrosive liquid 9 directly onto the specimen arch foot, simulating the dry-wet cycle corrosion of the arch foot in the wave splash zone. A drain port 203 is provided at the bottom of the left and right sides of the corrosion tank 2 to drain excess corrosive liquid 9. A water storage device 11 is provided, and the salt spray nozzle 201 and the spray head 202 are connected to the water storage device 11 via a water inlet pipe 204. The drain port 203 is connected to the water storage device 11 via a drain pipe 205. The limit sensor 15 and the corrosive liquid concentration sensor 16 at the arch foot of the corrosion tank 2 are connected to the data acquisition terminal 18 through external wires to respectively monitor the liquid level and concentration of the corrosive liquid 9 at the arch foot of the corrosion tank 2 in real time. The salt mist concentration sensor 17 at the dome in the corrosion tank 2 is connected to the data acquisition terminal 18 through an external wire to monitor the salt mist concentration at the dome in the corrosion tank 2 in real time.

[0093] In the specific test, when conducting the arch crown salt spray corrosion + arch foot dry-wet cycle corrosion test, the corrosive liquid 9 is poured into the external water storage device 11, and then flows to the salt spray nozzle 201 and the spray head 202 through the water inlet pipe 204, so as to achieve spray corrosion (simulating dry-wet cycle corrosion in the splash zone) on the arch foot area of ​​the steel tube concrete arch rib while applying salt spray corrosion (simulating marine atmospheric corrosion or industrial atmospheric corrosion) to the arch crown area, truly simulating the impact of corrosion on the arch rib structure of large-span arch bridges in coastal areas.

[0094] In addition, the salt mist concentration sensor 17 monitors the salt mist concentration in the corrosion tank 2 in real time, converts the measured data into an electrical signal, and feeds it back to the data acquisition terminal 18. The computer processes the data and compares it with the pre-set test salt mist concentration range. If the actual detected salt mist concentration is lower than the set range, the data acquisition terminal 18 will automatically calculate the volume of the corrosive liquid 9 that needs to be replenished, generate a control instruction, extract the corrosive liquid 9, and transport it to the salt mist nozzle 201 through the water inlet pipe 204 for spraying. The spraying amount is precisely controlled based on the calculated volume of the corrosive liquid 9 that needs to be replenished. This test device can realize the automated monitoring and control of salt mist corrosion in the steel tube concrete arch rib vault area, and more accurately control the test conditions to simulate actual working conditions.

[0106] S6: Record and analyze the stress, strain, deformation, corrosion degree and damage evolution of the structure during the test.
