Definitions
- the object of the invention is a method for manufacturing a fiber-reinforced concrete column used in the construction industry as defined in the preamble of claim 1 , in which method one or more pipes, such as a steel pipe, is brought to a base, and fixed to the aforementioned base, after which the pipe is filled with fiber-reinforced concrete, simultaneously vibrating the concrete and/or the pipe.
- one or more pipes such as a steel pipe
- the object of the invention is also a fiber-reinforced concrete column used in the construction industry as defined in the preamble of claim 7, which comprises a pipe, such as a steel pipe, which can be filled with fiber-reinforced concrete.
- publication JP 11181958 A2 discloses a fiber-reinforced concrete column, in which fiber-reinforced concrete is placed inside a steel pipe, for replacing the reinforcement installed inside the pipe that is conventionally used.
- Prior-art solutions have a number of drawbacks.
- fiber-reinforced concrete is conventionally pumped into a pipe, such as e.g. a steel pipe, from the top, as a consequence of which vibration of the fiber-reinforced concrete is awkward to perform owing to the cramped space, because the vibration means are taken inside the pump from the top or the pipe is vibrated from the side from outside it, which is not very effective.
- performing the vibration is even more awkward if there is bracket reinforcement inside the pipe, especially if the pipe is small in diameter, which is often the case.
- the purpose of this invention is to achieve a new type of solution, by means of which the drawbacks of prior-art solutions can be avoided.
- the aim of the invention is therefore to achieve a solution which facilitates and improvestthe efficiency of the manufacture of a fiber-reinforced concrete column, and with which also a practicable and simple solution is achieved for a fiber-reinforced concrete column that is suited for use in the construction industry and can very well be used as a composite column in composite structures.
- the method according to the invention is mainly characterized by what is disclosed in the characterization part of claim 1.
- the fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention is characterized by what is disclosed in the characterization part of claim 7.
- the fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention is also characterized by what is disclosed in claims 8-18, and 19.
- the invention is based on the surprising observation that fiber-reinforced concrete can be pumped into a pipe that functions as the mold of a column or as a part of a composite column from the bottom of the pipe such that the fiber-reinforced concrete does not block the lead-in and that the fibers of the fiber-reinforced concrete do not spheroidize and the fibers remain evenly distributed in the concrete also after pumping into the pipe.
- the solution according to the invention has a number of important advantages. In the solution according to the invention it is easy to perform vibration of the fiber-reinforced concrete from the top of the pipe, because the vibration means can easily be taken into the pipe without obstacle since the fiber- reinforced concrete can be put into the pipe via the coupling in the bottom part of the pipe.
- getting the fiber-reinforced concrete into the pipe from the bottom part of the pipe is easier to perform in worksite conditions than filling of the pipe that occurs from the top, because access to the coupling is easy.
- Performing the vibration from the top also helps in compacting the fiber-reinforced concrete.
- an even distribution of fiber-reinforced concrete is achieved, and this has a strengthening effect on the structure.
- the solution according to the invention can also be easily connected to prior-art solutions, in which e.g. bracket reinforcements or corresponding are placed inside the pipe.
- the fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention is extremely well suited for use as a composite structure, i.e. as a composite column in 1 -story or multistory construction, e.g. in office premises construction or industrial facilities construction.
- Fig. 1A presents a fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention.
- Fig. 1 B presents a front view of a fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention and the coupling on it.
- Fig. 2 presents a fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention and the use of it as a composite column in a composite structure.
- a pipe 6 as presented by Fig. 1A such as a steel pipe or corresponding, is fixed to a base 3.
- the pipe can be fixed to the base with screws, by welding or with another applicable method that is already knowm.
- Fiber-reinforced concrete 2 is fed into the pipe that is fixed to the base, which fiber-reinforced concrete is fed into the pipe via a movable coupling piece 4 on the bottom part of the pipe, on the side of it.
- the lead-in in connection with the coupling piece, which lead-in is formed on the pipe, is described with the reference number 7.
- the coupling piece can be moved in the vertical direction of the pipe (or possibly in the lateral direction of the pipe) such that the lead-in 7 can be covered with it, in which case the fiber-reinforced concrete inside the pipe cannot get out of the pipe 6.
- the pipe 6 can comprise one or more brackets 5, to which bracket and/or pipe connectable structures, such as composite beams or other structures, can be connected.
- the bracket 5 is formed on the pipe such that it fills with fiber-reinforced concrete when the pipe is filled. Filling the bracket with fiber-reinforced concrete strengthens the bracket.
- Reinforcement that is conventionally used, such as steel bar reinforcement, can be fitted inside the pipe 6, such as a steel pipe, but this is not marked in the figure.
- the coupling piece according to Fig. 1B which is on the bottom part of the pipe, is disposed in connection with the lead-in 7, which lead-in is formed in the pipe 6.
- the coupling piece can be moved in the vertical direction of the pipe as is marked in the figure (or alternatively also in the lateral direction) because the coupling piece comprises slots 8, and screws 9 or corresponding are fixed to the pipe, which are fitted into the slots such that the coupling piece is able to move to the extent of the slots.
- the coupling piece can also be fixed tightly against the pipe with the screws, to a location above the lead-in such that the coupling piece covers the lead-in, and that the fiber-reinforced concrete in the pipe is not able to flow out via the lead-in.
- the pipe can be fixed to the base with screws, by welding or with some other applicable method.
- Filling the pipe with fiber-reinforced concrete occurs such that the pipe is filled by pumping fiber-reinforced concrete into the pipe via the lead-in 7 in the bottom part of the pipe, in connection with which lead-in a movable coupling piece 4 is fitted, and after the pipe is filled with fiber-reinforced concrete the lead-in is closed with the coupling piece.
- Closing the lead-in occurs such that the coupling piece is moved in the vertical and/or the lateral direction, in which case the coupling piece blocks the lead-in.
- the vibration performed for compacting the fiber-reinforced concrete occurs via the top end of the pipe, by taking the vibration means (not shown) inside the pipe from the top.
- the vibration can also, however, take place by vibrating from outside the pipe, or alternatively by taking the vibration means inside the pipe via the lead-in 7.
- Fig. 2 presents in a simplified manner the use of the fiber-reinforced concrete column according to the invention as a composite column, in which a number of fiber- reinforced concrete columns function as a composite column.
- Connectable structures such as beams 10 can be fitted to the column in the desired phase, even before the filling of the pipes with fiber-reinforced concrete, or after it.
- the filling of the pipes with fiber-reinforced concrete is easy when the casting coupling 4 is disposed in the bottom part of the pipe.
- the bar reinforcement which will be inside the pipe and the beam, is marked with the reference number 11.
- Connectable structures, such as beams 10 are such that the fiber-reinforced concrete pumped into the pipe 6 is able to pass into them via the pipe (or possibly via the bracket in the pipe), and this strengthens the joint between the connectable structures and the pipe (column), however for the sake of clarity this aspect is not marked in the figure.
- the length of the fiber used in the fiber-reinforced concrete is smaller than 60 mm, and preferably 25 - 35 mm, and the consistency class of the fiber-reinforced concrete used is S3 - S4 (according to BY50 concrete code 2004).
- the particle size of the fiber-reinforced concrete is 16 mm or smaller, preferably 12 mm.
- the fibers of the fiber-reinforced concrete can be steel fibers, carbon fibers, glass fibers, plastic fibers, or formed with a combination of the aforementioned.
- the fibers used can also be not yet used or known, and possible fibers to be developed in the future.
- the strength grade of the fiber-reinforced concrete used to fill the pipe is between K30 - K60 (according to BY50 concrete code 2004).
- the amount of fibers in the concrete can vary according to need, but preferably 30- 45 kg of fibers are put into one cubic meter of concrete (30-45 kg fibers/m 3 concrete).
- the pipe that is filled with fiber-reinforced concrete and used in the invention is generally a cross-sectionally round model, but it can however also be some other model, i.e. a rectangular, triangular, elliptical or some other closed cross-section.
- the material of the pipe can be formed from steel or some other metal, or from a combination of different metals.
- the length of the fiber of the fiber-reinforced concrete used in the invention is essentially substantially shorter than the diameter of the lead-in, from where the fiber- reinforced concrete is placed into the pipe.
