Abstract:
The effects of erosion mode, erosion age, and concentration of sulfate solution on mechanical properties of concrete were investigated. The dimensionless relationship model of the stress-strain of concrete on the basis of randomness was proposed. The variation of the elasticity modulus and Poisson's ratio of the concrete surface attacked by sulfate was studied, and a novel method of using a superficial parameter to characterize the performance change of the concrete surface was recommended. The results showed that the dimensionless relationship model of stress-strain of concrete could be used to represent the variations of mechanical properties of concrete. The differences of load-displacement of concrete before and after sulfate attack were reflected as the change of curve's slope and ultimate bearing capacity, and the slope of a straight section of the lateral and longitudinal strain curves of concrete surface also varied. The increment rates of ultimate bearing capacity of concrete attacked by 1% and saturated sulfate solution were about 30% and 10%, respectively. However, the decreasing ratio of the ultimate bearing capacity of concrete attacked by saturated sulfate solution was approximately 25%. The damage factor of the elasticity modulus of the concrete surface of C20 and C40 was 0.185 and -0.19, respectively. The obtained results could provide a support for investigating the variations of stress-strain relationship and mechanical performance of concrete under a sulfate environment.
