Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an end fixing clamp used for RC (reinforced concrete) column lateral impact test. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, accidents involving collisions between vehicles and ships and bridge piers have become common. These accidents can cause varying degrees of damage to the bridge piers. In severe cases, they can also cause the collapse of the upper bridge structure, resulting in serious casualties and economic losses. When subjected to horizontal dynamic effects such as collisions between vehicles and ships, vertical load-bearing bridge piers will exhibit mechanical behaviors and damage characteristics that are different from those of static effects, which will affect the bearing capacity, stability and safety of the bridge piers. Therefore, the horizontal impact resistance of bridge piers is an issue worthy of attention. At present, scholars in the field of engineering structures often use model tests and finite element analysis, among which model tests are particularly important for the study of such complex stress behaviors.

[0003] At present, in the simulated impact test of structural columns, the column specimens are often cast together with the heavy and large foundation base. Although the integral casting of the column and the foundation base can better simulate the fixed support constraint at the bottom of the column, the installation and anchoring of the foundation base have relatively high requirements for the test device, and the heavy base often becomes loose or slides due to insufficient anchoring during the test. When the column and the foundation base are cast in place as a whole, the process of template production and support system is relatively complicated. When the number of column specimens is large, the test cost of the overall casting will be high, and the construction period is long, which is not conducive to the development of experimental research. The end fixing clamp designed by the utility model for the specimen column does not need to make a heavy and large foundation base, but only needs to make the column specimen. In this way, the template production and support system are relatively simple, which can greatly reduce the production cost of the specimen column. The end support fixture is composed of a grooved high-strength steel component and an outer layer of high-strength reinforced concrete. It is fixed and anchored by high-strength tension screws to ensure that the fixture has greater rigidity, strength and stability, avoiding loosening and sliding. It can also be manufactured once and used repeatedly, and the installation and disassembly of the test column is relatively simple, which can also improve the test efficiency and save costs.
