Definitions

  • Difierent arrangements have been proposed for producing prestressedtubes with homogeneous conditions, as regards stresses including those in which the prestress is obtained by means of pressure or in other manner, while the concrete is still in a semi-plastic or semi-solid condition.
  • the present inventoin is based on the principle above named to provide a concrete tube unreinforced beforehand with a winding, and then by the special process characterising the invention to place an exterior concrete tube cast around the first one in such a way that after the hardening the tube as regards the stress condition becomes homogeneous and the prestress becomes the same in the exterior and the interior tube.
  • Figure 1 shows a diametrical section through aprimary concrete tube and the means tor-applying outward radial. pressure thereon.
  • Fig, 2 shows a top plan view," of a cylindrical casting mold? plate for the outer or cast on. concrete; tube.
  • Fig. 2a is a sideel'evation of the mold'jplate shown in Fig, 2'.
  • Fig- 3 shows an axial section of the primary tube with; the reinforcing wires in position thereagainst.
  • Fig. 4 shows the moldi'arrangelments for imparting pressure to boththe, interior and the exterior of the composite molded con crete tube.
  • the drawing shows a mould arrangement for imparting pressure to both the interior and the exterior of the composite mould concrete tube.
  • the finished cast primary concrete tube orccre l' which preferably is made of concrete of high quality is tightened in one way or anotherso that a certain inside pressure pr may be maintained.
  • the tightening is obtained by placing a lid 2 on each end of the tube core, through the axis of which an inlet 2a for pressure water or pressure gas is found.
  • This primary tube is now wound with a suitable reinforcement wire 4a in such a way that the tension in the wire during the winding is maintained constant substantially at its maximum (for piano wire up to 20,000 kg./cm.
  • the diameter of the wire and the number of windings per meter are determined in such a way that a high peripheric compressive stress 0'1 for instance kg/cm. results in the primary concrete tube core I.
  • the finished wound concrete primary tube I is then surrounded by a casting-mould, which preferably is made in a way to yield somewhat when subjected to pressure for instance by the overlapping of an elastic steel-plate 3.
  • the characteristic feature of the invention consists in, that before the exterior tube or covering 5 is cast around tube I, the latter is subjected to the pressure 321 above named from the inside.
  • This pressure is regulated in such a manner that the stress '01 in the concrete beapproximately 0, or in case a strongly shrinking concrete mass for the exterior tube is used, 121 is chosen so high that m will be slightly negative, i. e. the tube 1 is subjected to a small peripheric tension corresponding to that engendered in the exterior tube after hardening. It is a matter of course that this peripheric tension must be less than the tensile strength of the concrete mass used.
  • the exterior concrete'rnass or covering 5 is now cast into the mould provided by the exterior of the primary tube core I and the plate 3 by ramming or vibration and the hardening takes place in a natural way or is eventually accelerated by heating.
  • the pressure p; is maintained constant.
  • the pressure in the composite tube is released and a homogeneous stress of where s1 is the thickness of the tube, s2 is the thickness of the tube 5 and 0'2 is the average peripheric stress in the composite tube in the finished state.
  • a process for imparting peripheric, compressive prestress to a tubular object of concrete which comprises imparting compressive stress to a. prehardened concrete tube by winding therearound a highly prestressed wire in direct ,con-
  • each of the tubular elements of the composite tubular object will be under a peripheric compressive prestress which is substantially homogeneous throughout the composite wall of the tubular object.
  • a process for imparting peripheric, compressive prestress to a tubular object of concrete which comprises imparting compressive stress to a prehardened concrete tube c'ore' by wlnding therearound a highly prestressed wire in direct contact with the concrete tube, casting around said wire-stressed tube core and in contact therewith a tube covering of concrete adhering to the core and subjecting and maintaining during the hardening oi the covering, the bore of the inner.
