TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the construction process of large concrete structures such as roads and bridges, as the core bearing material, the hardening process and internal quality of the concrete directly affect the load-carrying capacity, deformation resistance and durability of the structure. By detecting the hardness of the concrete structure, the strength and hardening state of the concrete from the surface to the interior can be determined in real time, and problems such as insufficient strength and internal defects caused by improper pouring process, curing conditions or material ratio can be found in time, so as to avoid safety accidents such as structure cracking, load failure and even collapse caused by insufficient concrete strength, and to ensure the long-term safety and stability of the road and bridge structure.
[0003] The traditional concrete hardness detection method generally performs single detection based on the assumption of vertical incidence, without considering the deviation of the incidence angle caused by the incomplete fitting of the curved surface structure such as the arch rib of the road and bridge, which can significantly affect the accuracy of the rebound value measured by the rebound method and the propagation path of the ultrasonic wave in the ultrasonic method, and further cause errors in the evaluation of the hardness of the concrete. Secondly, the gradient change of the internal temperature of the concrete can affect the sound velocity of the ultrasonic wave propagation, resulting in thermal distortion in the measurement of the sound velocity of the ultrasonic wave, so that the continuous hardness distribution of the concrete from the surface to the interior under the curved surface structure of the road and bridge cannot be accurately reflected, and it is difficult to accurately evaluate the hardness of the concrete structure such as the road and bridge.

[0041] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the application more clear, the device and method for detecting the hardness of road and bridge construction concrete are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the application and do not limit the application.
[0042] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs.
[0043] Reference is made to Figure 1 A step flow chart of the method for detecting the hardness of road and bridge construction concrete provided by the embodiment of the application is shown in
[0044] Step 1, the probe integrated with multiple detection instruments is attached to the surface of the road and bridge construction concrete, the inclination angle of the probe, the rebound value of the concrete surface, the ultrasonic detector in the probe emitting ultrasonic waves to the inside of the concrete, the sound speed value of the ultrasonic waves propagating at different depth positions in the concrete, and the temperature of the concrete surface at different time are collected; based on the inclination angle, the rebound value and the sound speed value are corrected respectively to obtain the corrected rebound value and the corrected sound speed value.
[0045] As the main material of bridge structure, the hardness of concrete directly affects the stability and service life of the whole bridge. In the process of road and bridge construction, the detection of concrete hardness is not only the core link of engineering quality control, but also an important guarantee for the bridge to withstand various loads and resist environmental influences in the use process. The traditional concrete hardness detection method generally uses ultrasonic method or rebound method for detection. Among them, the rebound method uses a spring-driven weight to measure the rebound distance after the concrete surface is hit, to evaluate the hardness of the concrete. The ratio of this distance to the initial spring length is the rebound value. The ultrasonic method is a non-destructive detection method that uses the characteristics of sound wave propagation in concrete to evaluate the elastic properties and internal quality of concrete, to realize the detection of concrete hardness. When ultrasonic waves pass through concrete, they interact with particles, pores, cracks and other materials in the material, causing changes in ultrasonic velocity. The velocity can be used to infer the hardness of the concrete. Specifically, the greater the density of the concrete, the higher the hardness and the higher the velocity. If the internal pores of the concrete are more, the density of the concrete is smaller, and the velocity of the ultrasonic wave in the concrete is lower, and the corresponding hardness is lower.
[0046] However, the detection process of single ultrasonic method or rebound method has certain limitations. When using the rebound method, only the hardness of the concrete surface can be reflected, and the internal hardness cannot be evaluated. In addition, the rebound needs to maintain the flatness of the concrete surface. The ultrasonic method uses a single velocity to estimate the hardness of the concrete, and the velocity mainly reflects the dynamic elasticity of the concrete. When the hardness of the concrete is high, the dynamic elasticity index changes very little, causing the velocity to change slightly, which leads to inaccurate velocity detection and greatly affects the accuracy. Therefore, the ultrasonic rebound comprehensive method is used to measure the hardness of the concrete, to compensate for the shortcomings of the two detection methods.
[0047] However, in the concrete pouring of bridge arch ribs and other curved structures, due to the curvature characteristics of the arch rib curve, the rebound instrument and ultrasonic detector are difficult to completely vertically adhere to the concrete surface, causing the rebound instrument and ultrasonic detector to rebound and signal emission at an incident angle, resulting in deviation in the detection results. Secondly, in the road and bridge construction concrete, there is a temperature gradient inside the concrete, and the temperature change will affect the propagation speed of the ultrasonic wave, further causing deviation in the calculation of the velocity.
[0048] Therefore, the rebound hammer, the ultrasonic detector, the MEMS three-axis tilt sensor and the patch Pt100 temperature sensor are integrated into the same detection device probe, the test points on the concrete surface of the bridge arch rib are selected for the rebound experiment, the MEMS three-axis tilt sensor in the probe collects the tilt angle of the probe by detecting the component of the gravity acceleration on the sensitive axis, the rebound hammer in the probe collects the rebound value of the concrete surface, the ultrasonic detector in the probe obtains the ultrasonic signal, and the ultrasonic velocity value of the concrete at different depth positions is calculated according to the time interval from the emission to the reception of the ultrasonic signal, and the temperature sensor in the probe collects the temperature of the concrete surface at different time;
[0049] In the embodiment, the collection frequency of the temperature sensor is 10 Hz, and as other implementation manners, the implementer can set it according to the actual situation.
[0050] It should be noted that the transmitting end of the ultrasonic detector is a 1MHz piezoelectric transducer, the receiving end is a same-frequency piezoelectric transducer, the distance between the transducers is 50mm, and as other implementation manners, the implementer can set it according to the actual situation, wherein the calculation of the ultrasonic velocity value is a known technology, and will not be described here.
[0051] In an ideal case, the probe is completely perpendicular to the concrete surface, at this time, the impact energy is completely transmitted along the normal direction of the concrete surface, and the rebound value measured reflects the true hardness of the concrete surface; however, when the concrete surface of the curved structure such as the bridge arch rib is detected, due to the difficulty of the probe to completely vertically adhere to the concrete surface, there is an inclination angle between the probe and the concrete surface, then the impact energy is no longer completely transmitted along the normal direction, but is divided into two components, respectively, the component perpendicular to the concrete surface and the component parallel to the concrete surface, the component parallel to the surface energy will be lost, resulting in low or distorted rebound value, therefore, the rebound value is corrected by the inclination angle, to represent the component perpendicular to the concrete surface, specifically:
[0052]
[0053] wherein, is the corrected rebound value, is the original measured rebound value, is the inclination angle, is the cosine value function.
[0054] Secondly, when the ultrasonic wave incidence direction deviates from the normal, the propagation path is lengthened due to the angle inclination, and the reflection and refraction characteristics of the ultrasonic wave at the concrete-air interface change, which directly affects the accuracy of the velocity calculation; wherein the propagation of the ultrasonic wave in the concrete can be approximated as straight line propagation, when the incidence angle of the ultrasonic wave is When the actual propagation path length is longer than the vertical path length, the relationship between the actual propagation path length and the vertical path length is as follows:
[0055]
[0056] in, This is the actual propagation path length. This represents the vertical path length. The tilt angle, It is a cosine-valued function.
[0057] With the propagation time of ultrasound remaining constant, since the speed of sound equals the path length divided by the propagation time, the original speed of sound value is corrected to characterize the speed of sound under perpendicular incidence. Specifically:
[0058]
[0059] in, For concrete at depth The corrected speed of sound value, In depth The original measured sound speed value, The tilt angle, It is a cosine-valued function.
[0060] It should be noted that, This indicates the speed of sound when an ultrasonic wave is incident perpendicularly.
[0061] It should be noted that by correcting the rebound value, the mechanical properties of the concrete surface layer are accurately reflected in the rebound test, avoiding measurement deviations caused by the tilt angle. Secondly, the sound velocity value is corrected to rectify path errors in the sound velocity calculation, ensuring the inversion accuracy of signals from the subsurface layer and internal structure of the concrete, and providing reliable basic data for multimodal fusion. Therefore, by eliminating the influence of the tilt angle caused by incomplete surface fit on the deviation of the rebound test and ultrasonic testing, the unique errors in the testing scenarios of curved structures such as bridge arch ribs are resolved.
[0062] Thus, the temperature of the concrete surface at each moment, the rebound value of the concrete surface after correction, and the sound velocity value of the concrete at different depths inside the concrete after correction are obtained.
[0063] Step 2: Based on Fourier's law of heat conduction and energy conservation, construct the differential equation of heat conduction and boundary conditions. Based on the boundary conditions, solve the differential equation of heat conduction using the finite difference method to obtain the temperature of the concrete at each depth. Combined with the temperature of the concrete surface, determine the temperature gradient of the concrete at each depth. Compensate the corrected sound velocity value to obtain the compensated sound velocity value of the concrete at each depth.
[0064] In the concrete structure of road and bridge construction, there is often an imbalance in the exchange of internal and external heat and generation. For example, the hydration reaction after concrete pouring will continuously release heat, and the internal heat in large volume or thick layer structure is difficult to dissipate quickly, which is easy to form heat accumulation. Secondly, the surface layer of concrete is directly in contact with the external environment, and is affected by environmental factors such as temperature, sunlight, wind, and precipitation, and the heat dissipation speed is much faster than the internal, resulting in a significant temperature difference along the depth direction. Among them, the surface temperature of the concrete fluctuates more obviously with the environment, while the internal temperature is higher due to heat accumulation and changes gently. This temperature gradient along the depth direction is formed, and the greater the pouring thickness, the more intense the hydration heat release, and the more significant the environmental temperature change, the more obvious the temperature gradient.
[0065] Furthermore, there is a significant temperature gradient in the concrete, and temperature changes will affect the change of ultrasonic speed value. If the temperature interference is not eliminated, the reliability of ultrasonic detection will be greatly reduced, and then the hardness detection will have errors.
[0066] Based on the above analysis, the patch type Pt100 temperature sensor can only collect the temperature of the surface of the concrete, while the heat conduction in the concrete is a one-dimensional stable or unstable heat diffusion process along the depth. Based on the Fourier heat conduction law, the heat conduction differential equation is:
[0067]
[0068] Among them, represents t the temperature of the concrete at depth at time t, represents the depth position of the concrete, t represents time, is the thermal diffusion coefficient, is the change per unit time, is the differential unit of the concrete in the depth direction;
[0069] Secondly, the thermal diffusion coefficient , wherein, represents the thermal conductivity of the concrete, represents the density of the concrete and represents the specific heat capacity of the concrete.
[0070] It should be noted that the thermal conductivity, density and specific heat capacity are inherent parameters of the concrete material, which can be obtained through the construction manual. Secondly, the heat conduction equation describes the change of temperature with time and depth in the process of heat conduction in the concrete. By measuring the temperature of the surface of the concrete, the hardness of the internal structure of the concrete can be inferred.
[0071] Second, in order to solve the heat conduction partial differential equation, the heat conduction differential equation needs to be designed to determine the condition, including: initial condition and boundary condition:
[0072] Initial condition: is the temperature field state of concrete at initial time, that is, the temperature of concrete at the time of concrete pouring, at the initial time =0, Wherein, The pouring temperature, in this embodiment, the temperature of concrete at the time of pouring Obtained through the construction manual.
[0073] The first type of boundary condition: the temperature of the concrete boundary Wherein, L=0, represents the surface of the concrete, The temperature of the concrete surface at the time of t The temperature of the concrete surface at the time of Measured by the temperature sensor; t
[0074] The second type of boundary condition: the heat flux of the given concrete surface is a function of time, that is:
[0075]
[0076] Wherein, The given heat flux, The thermal conductivity of concrete;
[0077] It should be noted that before the concrete is poured, the thermocouple is pre-embedded at an interval of 5 cm. During the pouring process and the initial stage of solidification, the temperature at each depth position is recorded in real time, the ratio between the temperature difference at adjacent depth positions and the interval of adjacent depth positions is calculated, the initial temperature gradient is calculated, and the heat flux is determined through the initial temperature gradient and the thermal conductivity of concrete.
[0078] The third type of boundary condition: the concrete is in contact with the external medium such as air, and there is a phenomenon of convective heat transfer, that is:
[0079]
[0080] Wherein, The thermal conductivity of concrete, The surface heat release coefficient, The temperature of the surrounding medium, such as air temperature, Indicates the depth; second, the size of the surface heat release coefficient Affects the heat release rate of concrete, and the surface heat release coefficient is related to factors such as wind speed, wherein the approximate calculation method of the surface heat release coefficient of concrete is:
[0081]
[0082] wherein, represents the wind speed, is an exponential function with a natural constant as a base.
[0083] Based on the definite condition, the heat conduction differential equation is solved by using the finite difference method, the time derivative is approximated by the forward difference, and the spatial second-order derivative is approximated by the central difference, so as to calculate the temperature at different depth positions at each time;
[0084] It should be noted that the process of calculating the heat conduction differential equation by using the finite difference method is a known technology, which will not be described here.
[0085] Based on the temperature of the concrete at each depth position at the time and the temperature of the concrete surface, the temperature gradient of the concrete at the depth position at each time is calculated;
[0086]
[0087] wherein, is the temperature gradient of the concrete at the depth position at the time, is the temperature of the concrete surface at the time, is the temperature of the concrete at the depth position at the time, represents the depth.
[0088] Further, based on the temperature gradient, the corrected sound speed value at different depth positions is compensated, specifically:
[0089]
[0090] wherein, is the compensated sound speed value of the concrete at the depth position, is the corrected sound speed value of the concrete at the depth position, is a preset influence coefficient, which represents the change amount of the sound speed value of the ultrasonic wave caused by a unit temperature gradient;
[0091] Therefore, the corrected sound speed value is compensated by the temperature gradient of the concrete at different depth positions at this time.
[0092] In this embodiment, under the condition of controllable temperature, for example, in a constant temperature box, by applying different temperature gradients Wherein, the concrete test block is same with the concrete at the bridge arch rib in mix proportion and age, using the ultrasonic detector, recording the sound velocity value change corresponding to different temperature gradient, after forming two-dimensional array of each temperature gradient and its corresponding sound velocity value change, linear fitting is carried out, the slope of the fitting straight line is obtained, that is, the preset influence coefficient It should be noted that the least square method is used for linear fitting, wherein the least square method is a known technology and will not be described here. Thus, the sound velocity value of the ultrasonic wave is compensated by the temperature change, and the influence of temperature on the sound velocity value is eliminated.
[0093] Thus, the compensated sound velocity value of the concrete at each depth position is obtained.
[0094] Step 3, by drilling core sampling on multiple groups of concrete test blocks with different strength grades, analyzing the rebound value measured in the rebound test and the hardness change of the core sample after core sampling, calculating the rebound contribution weight of the concrete at each depth position; after the rebound test and ultrasonic detection of multiple groups of concrete test blocks with different strength grades, analyzing the change relationship between the rebound value measured on the surface of the concrete test block, the sound velocity value of the ultrasonic wave and the strength of the concrete test block, respectively, obtaining the rebound hardness model and the sound velocity hardness model; based on the corrected rebound value and the rebound hardness model, the compensated sound velocity value and the sound velocity hardness model, combining the rebound contribution weight, determining the hardness of the concrete at each depth position, and detecting the hardness of the road and bridge construction concrete in real time.
[0095] Further, the rebound method is sensitive to the surface hardness, but the impact energy decays sharply with depth, and cannot accurately reflect the hardness characteristics of the concrete inside the subsurface; although the ultrasonic detection method can penetrate the subsurface, its accuracy is affected by temperature. The reliability of the two methods at different depths presents complementary characteristics, the rebound value is more reliable in the shallow layer, and the ultrasonic signal is more stable in the subsurface. Therefore, the advantages of the two methods need to be dynamically integrated through weight distribution, and in the hardness detection of the bridge arch rib mass concrete, if the same weight is given to all depths, it will lead to excessive dependence on unreliable rebound value for deep layer hardness evaluation, resulting in large deviation. By setting dynamic distribution weight changing with depth, the rebound value plays a dominant role in its surface layer, avoiding detection deviation of single mode at non-advantageous depth, and realizing continuous hardness evaluation from surface layer to subsurface.
[0096] Based on the above analysis, the attenuation characteristics of the rebound value at different depth positions in the concrete are designed as an exponential function, and thus the rebound contribution weight at each depth position is:
[0097]
[0098] Wherein, is the rebound contribution weight of the concrete at the depth The rebound contribution weight at the depth L, The preset attenuation coefficient is The depth is represented.
[0099] In the embodiment, the preset attenuation coefficient is The specific experimental operation is that: 3 groups of concrete test blocks with different intensity grades are selected, for example, 3 groups of C25, C30 and C35 concrete test blocks are selected, a core sample is drilled every 5 cm in the 0-50 cm depth interval of each concrete test block, the surface of the core sample is tested by the rebound hammer, the rebound value corresponding to the depth of the core sample is recorded, and the rebound value is recorded as ; secondly, the core sample is placed under the pressure testing machine, the real hardness of the depth corresponding to the core sample is measured, and the real hardness is recorded as , and the surface of each concrete test block is rebound tested, the rebound value of the surface of each concrete test block is recorded, and the rebound value is recorded as , and the real hardness of the surface of each concrete test block is measured, and the real hardness is recorded as , then the rebound reliability is calculated , the rebound reliability of all concrete test blocks at different depths is linearly fitted, the slope of the fitted straight line is taken as the attenuation coefficient , in the embodiment, the preset attenuation coefficient is ; the depth is inversely calculated by the propagation time of the ultrasonic wave and the compensated sound velocity value, and then the rebound contribution weight is calculated.
[0100] It should be noted that the greater the depth L is, the smaller the rebound contribution weight is, which indicates that the contribution of the rebound value to the hardness decays with the depth, at this time, the reference of the rebound value should be reduced, and the reference of the ultrasonic velocity to the hardness detection should be increased.
[0101] Secondly, the rebound value and the velocity of the ultrasonic wave are physical signals that indirectly reflect the hardness of the concrete, rather than direct hardness indicators. The rebound method characterizes the surface plastic deformation ability by the rebound energy of the impact hammer, and the ultrasonic method reflects the material density and elastic properties by the sound velocity, both of which need to establish a quantitative mapping relationship with the actual hardness of the concrete to be used for engineering evaluation. In addition, the mix proportion and curing conditions of the concrete will significantly affect the correlation between the signal and the hardness, therefore, a specific mapping model must be established through experimental calibration to avoid scene adaptation deviation of the general empirical formula and ensure the engineering reliability of the detection result.
[0102] Therefore, by selecting multiple groups of concrete test blocks of different strength grades, for example, three groups of concrete test blocks of C25, C30, and C35, and curing the three groups of concrete test blocks for 28 days, a rebound test was conducted on the surface of the concrete test blocks. Sixteen test points were selected on the surface of each concrete test block, and the average value of the rebound values corresponding to the 10 valid test points was taken as the rebound value of each concrete test block. At the same time, the sound velocity was measured using an ultrasonic testing instrument with a transducer spacing of 100 mm. The average value of the sound velocity measured three times for each concrete test block was taken as the sound velocity value of each concrete test block. Core samples were drilled from each concrete test block, with a core sample diameter of 100 mm and a height-to-diameter ratio of 1:1. The compressive strength of the core sample was tested using a pressure testing machine as the true hardness of each concrete test block.
[0103] Because the impact energy and plastic deformation in the rebound test exhibit nonlinear characteristics, the rebound value of the construct has a quadratic polynomial relationship with the surface hardness; the sound velocity increases with the density or strength of the concrete, but a threshold effect exists due to the influence of microcracks. Therefore, the sound velocity value of the construct has an exponential relationship with the internal hardness.
[0104] For all concrete test blocks, the rebound value and the true hardness are fitted with a quadratic polynomial to obtain the fitted quadratic polynomial function, which is denoted as the rebound hardness model.
[0105] The expression for the springback hardness model is as follows: ,in, , , The fitting coefficients for the springback hardness model are denoted as . This is the rebound value. This indicates the hardness corresponding to the rebound value R.
