Abstract:
High-strength mortar (HSM) gradually has wide applications due to its exceptional strength, micro-expansion properties, and excellent fluidity. Behavior deterioration of structures in saline soil areas is primarily attributed to freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack. In this study, the coupling effect of freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack on the appearance, mass loss, and relative dynamic elastic modulus of HSM was investigated during erosion. Then, compressive experiments were conducted to assess the mechanical properties of HSM subjected to both freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack. The influences of coupling freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack on the compressive properties of HSM were quantified through regression analysis of experimental results. Empirical models for compressive stress-strain curves and damage constitutive behavior of HSM were developed, taking the coupled adverse effect into account. The results indicate that the coupled effect of freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack causes performance deterioration of HSM. The empirical models reproduce the compressive behaviors of HSM subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and sulfate attack.
