Cracking analysis of massive concrete walls with cracking control techniques
Highlights ► We tested a RC wall and developed a model for it and the storage ring of a real SRF. ► RC walls scatteredly constructed displace more and tensile stress may be released. ► Influence of concrete curing on cracking of the RC storage ring is not significant. ► Walls displace more with weak external restraint and may have serviceability problem.
Abstract This paper presents the results of a study on the cracking behaviour of young reinforced concrete walls with cracking control techniques. Material property tests were conducted to identify the time-dependent mechanical properties of the young concrete. A 1:4 scaled young reinforced concrete wall was tested up to 165days to identify the strain development of the concrete and reinforcing bars. A three-dimensional finite element model was developed and verified with consideration of concrete shrinkage, creep, cement hydration heat and variation of temperature. The model was used for cracking analysis of massive reinforced young concrete walls of a synchrotron radiation facility to identify the influence of concrete joints, construction sequence, concrete curing and external restraints. It was found that the concrete cracking can be mitigated by the proper use of concrete joints, a reasonable construction sequence, early age concrete curing and a loose external restraint.
