To be the denomination of invention that proposed on March 14th, 2006 be the dividing an application of the patented claim of " early capillary negative pressure automatic detector for concrete " to the application, and the application number of original application is 200610038805.0.
Technical field
The method of testing of early capillary negative pressure of concrete of the present invention, the mechanism, the self-desiccation that belong to cement-based material self-desiccation drawdown deformation in the length of time early shrink zero point and capillary negative pressure technical field of measurement and test.
Background technology
Cement-based material is in the time history that adds water and begin several hrs after the final set, self-desiccation shrinks development rapidly, critical radius changes comparatively fast but still greatly, the decline that shows relative humidity is very little, generally all more than 98%, traditional hygrometer can't reflect the variation of relative humidity under this high humidity environment.Self-desiccation shrinks the initial formation that originates in structure, yet, how the initial formation of network of capillary tube structural system is described, just the grout initial configuration forms: promptly " time-zero " (zero point) determines.From the angle of cracking, the contraction of testing before at " time-zero " does not have mechanical meaning, and the contraction of testing afterwards at " time-zero " is then incomplete.Relevant research has just just begun to carry out, and more fails to form unified standard, is difficult to the contraction of dissimilar materials is compared for this reason, and also is difficult to the model that will be set up and the test findings in the document compares.
" time-zero " is exactly initial set in the report of JCI (Japanese concrete association); " time-zero " is defined as in the report of RILEM TC (international material and structured testing and research laboratory federation) 181: under the standard curing temperature, contact the time that is enough to transmit tension to concrete inner structure of beginning with water from cement.
Definite method of existing in the world " time-zero " mainly contains:
The method of penetration resistance: promptly test setting time, it is the mechanical property of test water mud (concrete) opposing external force effect on the macroscopic view in essence, the for example penetration resistance instrument test of the Pin-penetration of ASTM403 test and GB 8076-87, testing the timing definition that its penetration resistance reaches 3.5MPa (corresponding compressive strength be approximately 0) is concrete initial set, and the timing definition when its penetration resistance reaches 28MPa (corresponding compressive strength is approximately 0.75MPa) is concrete final set; The penetration test of ASTMC191 and GB 1346 is used for testing the setting time of cement paste.
The method of hydration heat curve test: traditional hydration heat curve has provided the aquation dynamic characteristic of grout, and the hydration reaction that causes microstructure change, usually initial set corresponding to from latent period certain after accelerated period changes a bit, final set then near certain peak value a bit.
The method of conductivity test: in recent years, the test of the conductivity of cement-based material more and more comes into one's own in the application of reflection its chemical reaction, microstructure change and transport property.Because its conductivity is very responsive in early days, therefore also is used to judge " time-zero ".
The method of ultrasonic tesint (UPV): the concrete of plastic stage is because loosely organized, ultrasound wave especially shearing wave is difficult to transmit, the formation that begins along with the cohesion network structure, system is changed to condensed state by suspended state gradually, then can transmit the moment correspondence of shearing wave and concrete setting time.
Stress test under the constraint condition: the temperature stress testing machine under the single shaft constraint can test out early concrete temperature inside, stress and cubic deformation, has defined two zero stress temperature in this method.First zero stress temperature is meant that inside concrete begins to occur the moment of compressive stress, and promptly xoncrete structure is enough to transmit the caused compressive stress of thermal expansion constantly.Second zero stress temperature then corresponding because contraction causes stress reversal's the moment.
The test of mechanical property: determine " time-zero " by numerical analysis to the test findings of the mechanical property in the different length of times.Because the notion of degree of ripeness has been widely used for predicting mechanical properties of concrete, as the experimental formula that ASTM 1074-93 returns based on test figure, " time-zero " is corresponding to " zero degree of ripeness ", the degree of ripeness when promptly beginning to produce intensity at this moment.
More above-mentioned several test method can be seen, comparatively speaking, the self-desiccation of the stress test method under the restrained condition and this paper definition shrinks comparatively directly correlativity, and other several method all depends on different corresponding relations, can not directly provide the clearly definition of " time-zero ".But there are problems such as interference such as the slippage of the constraint be subjected to temperature effect, mould, termination and bleeding in the stress test method under the restrained condition.
Summary of the invention
What the present invention will solve is exactly the problem that above-mentioned prior art exists, provide a kind of and can realize, realized the judgement that quantitative test and self-desiccation to concrete early stage water consumption shrink the more science at zero point from building the method for testing that early stage water consumption of concrete that moulding begins and capillary negative pressure change.

When the probe that is full of water and sealing inserted concrete, moisture film just coupled together with inside concrete moisture, produced the contact on the waterpower.After having ignored gravity potential, temperature potential, solute potential, the matric potential of water just can be measured by the pressure shown in the instrument (poor) in the cement stone (concrete).Just the cement-based material of mix belongs to full fully water material, is in suspended state, if after ignoring gravity potential, temperature potential, solute potential this moment, matric potential is zero, so the tension force that reflects is zero.In case the grout inner structure forms, the further aquation of cement will be at the inner formation in bigger hole meniscus, the both sides that stride across meniscus produce pressure differential, the matric potential of cement stone (concrete) pore water is lower than the pressure potential of water in the instrument, cement stone (concrete) just sees through ceramic head and absorbs water to instrument, till balance.Generation vacuum tightness or suction (being lower than the pressure of atmosphere with reference to pressure) are exactly capillary negative pressure in the instrument of sealing.According to the definition that self-desiccation shrinks, the generation correspondence of capillary negative pressure the formation of coherent structure and the beginning that self-desiccation shrinks, just " zero point ".Therefore " zero point " of the present invention method of testing is directly related with its definition, has clear physical meaning.
Continuous aquation along with Binder Materials consumes moisture by macropore to aperture gradually, and negative pressure also constantly increases, again basis

Embodiment
Referring to Fig. 1, the present invention is made up of pressure transducer 1, ceramic head 2, discharge 3, pipe close 4, survey tube 5, syringe needle 6, transmitter 7, A/D converter 8 and computing machine 9, and wherein pressure transducer adopts thick film sensor.The bottom tight bond of ceramic head 2 and the discharge 3 that is made of plastics is filled water in the plastics discharge 3 during work together, and the top is the pipe close 4 made of rubber beyond the Great Wall.Pressure transducer 1 is contained in surveys tube 5 inner bottom parts, and the syringe needle 6 of surveying tube 5 tops passes rubber pipe close 4 and inserts in the discharge 3.Ceramic head 2, plastics discharge 3 and pipe close 4 have formed a probe, and aforementioned probe and survey tube 5, syringe needle 6, pressure transducer 1 have constituted a tensiometer together.The signal of pressure transducer 1 is transferred to A/D converter 8 by transmitter 7, can directly send into computing machine 9 from the signal of A/D converter output, carries out analyzing and processing by the program by aforementioned inventive principle establishment that stores in the computing machine 9.
Ceramic head 2 is inductive means of the present invention, has many micro pores, and can regard a slice as does not have flexible perforated membrane.Ceramic head 2 is formed water membrane by behind the water infiltration in hole.Behind the whole water-fillings of the hole in the ceramic head 2, the water in the hole just has tension force, and this tension force can guarantee that water passes through ceramic head 2 under certain pressure, but stops air to pass through.When grout (concrete) was newly mixed in the ceramic head insertion that is full of water and sealing, moisture film just coupled together with the interior moisture of grout (concrete), produces the contact on the waterpower, reaches initial balance.Further aquation along with Binder Materials such as cement, in case unsaturated (being that the self-desiccation phenomenon begins) appears in grout (concrete) moisture, with the flow of water in the tensiometer when unequal, water is just flowed to flow of water lower by ceramic head by flow of water eminence, till the flow of water balance in grout (concrete) and tensiometer.After having ignored gravity potential, temperature potential, solute potential, the flow of water of system is pressure potential and matric potential sum, the pressure potential of grout (concrete) (with the atmospheric pressure reference) is zero, the matric potential of tensiometer also is zero, and the matric potential of water just can be measured by the pressure shown in the tensiometer (poor) in the grout (concrete).When the matric potential of the grout (concrete) of drying is lower than the pressure potential of water in the tensiometer, grout (concrete) just sees through ceramic head 2 to the tensiometer suction, till balance.Because tensiometer seals, just produce vacuum tightness or suction (being lower than the pressure of atmosphere) in the tensiometer with reference to pressure.Negative pressure in the tensiometer is just recorded by sensor like this.Thick film sensor instrument range is 0~100KPa, and precision is ± 1KPa.The shown pressure of tensiometer is exactly the negative pressure of grout (concrete), and just the matric potential of the moisture of grout (concrete) numerically equates, just opposite in sign.
Before using, the present invention needs to open the rubber pipe close 4 of discharge 3, and discharge tilted, slowly inject air free water (with boiling tap water after 20 minutes with plastic bottle, place cooling), till filling it up with, with 3 upright 10--20 minute (not adding pipe close) of discharge, make water moistening, and water breakthrough ooze from the ceramic head surface then ceramic head.Flow of water probe (ceramic head) should soak more than 3 hours in no carbonated drink before using.
