Drilling Resistance

Rapid and reliable condition assessment of reinforced concrete structures in high seismicity regions is a priority task in estimating their seismic safety. Non-destructive testing (NDT) methods may contribute to the condition assessment practice by providing fast and reliable strength estimation while causing minimal or no damage to the structure. Drilling resistance is an NDT method that has been used for mechanical characterization of natural stone and wood by measuring the force response for constant penetration rate and rotational speed. This paper focuses on the relationship between drilling resistance and compressive strength of concrete, including when it is combined with other NDT methods. Concrete cube samples produced using 6 different concrete mixtures were tested. Correlation equations were then obtained using statistical analysis. The results reveal that it may be possible to reliably estimate the compressive strength of concrete using drilling resistance method.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

Compressive strength of concrete is the major mechanical properties of concrete that need to be focused on. Poor compressive strength will lead to low susceptibility of concrete structure towards designated actions. Many researches have been conducted to enhance the compressive strength of concrete by incorporating new materials in the concrete mixture. The dependencies towards natural resources can be reduced. Therefore, this paper presents the results of an experimental study concerning the incorporation of artificial lightweight bubbles aggregate (LBA) into cementations mixture in order to produce comparable compressive strength but at a lower densities. Three concrete mixtures containing various percentages of LBA, (10% - 50% of LBA) and one mixture used normal aggregate (NA) were prepared and characterized. The compressive strength of LBA in concrete was identified to be ranged between 39 MPa and 54 MPa. Meanwhile, the densities vary between 2000 kg/m3 to 2300 kg/m3.

In this research, calcined diatomaceous earth from Aceh Besar, Indonesia was used as cement replacement in producing high strength concrete. Four concrete mixtures in which the percentage of cement replacement of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight were studied. Four cylinder-specimens with 100 mm diameter and 200 mm high were prepared for each mixture. The compression load was applied on the specimens at the age of 28 days until the specimens failed. The mixture without calcined diatomaceous earth was more workable than that with diatomaceous earth. The compressive strength of concrete with diatomaceous earth in this study was almost the same for all mixture. However, those compressive strength was lower than the compressive strength of concrete without calcined diatomaceous earth for about 14.6%. Modulus of elasticity of high strength concrete decreased with increasing of cement replacement percentage.

As a part of a large research program aiming at the cementitious materials containing recycled materials at Central Queensland University – Australia, the current paper presents the preliminary results of a study on the effects of fly ash, which is used to replace cement in concrete, on the concrete compressive strength. For this purpose, systematic experiments have been carried out to investigate the influences of fly ash ratio and age. The compressive strength of concrete specimens with replacement ratios of 15%, 30% and 45%, and aged 7 and 28 days are measured and are compared with those of the concrete specimens without fly ash at the same ages. The results demonstrate that the strength of fly ash containing concrete improves more slowly but more strongly with aging, than their fly ash free counterparts, and an optimum fly ash replacement ratio exists where the maximum compressive strength of fly ash containing concrete can be achieved, and the maximum strength for the specimens aged 28 days and above is higher that of fly ash free concrete. Furthermore, the observation strength behaviours are analysed and discussed in terms of the influences of fly ash on interface reactions and interface bonding strength.

In the construction industry, to evaluate the compressive strength of concrete, destructive and non-destructive testing methods are used. Non-destructive testing methods are preferable due to the fact that those methods do not destroy concrete samples. However, they usually give larger percentage of error than using destructive tests. Among the non-destructive testing methods, the ultrasonic pulse velocity test is the popular one because it is economic and very simple in operation. Using the ultrasonic pulse velocity test gives 20% MAPE more than using destructive tests. This paper aims to improve the ultrasonic pulse velocity test results in estimating the compressive strength of concrete using the help of artificial intelligent. To establish a better prediction model for the ultrasonic pulse velocity test, data collected from 312 cylinder of concrete samples are used to develop and validate the model. The research results provide valuable information when using the ultrasonic pulse velocity tests to the inputs data in addition with support vector machine by learning algorithms, and the actual compressive strengths are set as the target output data to train the model. The results show that both MAPEs for the linear and nonlinear regression models are 11.17% and 17.66% respectively. The MAPE for the support vector machine models is 11.02%. These research results can provide valuable information when using the ultrasonic pulse velocity test to estimate the compressive strength of concrete.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

Abstract. The use of coal waste (Fly Ash) is currently being developed in building materials technology, as a high-strength concrete mix material. This study aims to determine the strength of concrete by adding fly ash as a substitute for cement in high-strength concrete mixtures. This research was conducted with an experimental method to obtain results and data that would confirm the variables studied. The total number of specimens used in this study were 36 pieces with different sizes of cube tests which were 15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm. A total of 36 concrete samples were used to test the compressive strength of concrete with a percentage of Fly Ash in  0% (normal concrete), 20%, 25% and 30% with a concrete treatment age of 7 days, 21 days and 28 days. A total of 12 more samples were used to test water absorption in concrete at 28 days of maintenance. Each percentage percentage of Fly Ash uses 3 concrete test samples. The increase in compressive strength occurs at 7, 21 and 28 days in concrete. However, the compressive strength of concrete produced by concrete using the percentage of Fly Ash is always lower than the value of normal concrete compressive strength. From testing the compressive strength of concrete at 28 days of treatment with content of 0%, 20%, 25% and 30% Fly Ash obtained results of 45.87 MPa, 42.67 MPa, 40.89 MPa, and 35.27 MPa respectively

At the design stage of a structure, the members of adequate dimension and strength is provided. But with passage of time, the strength of the members reduces gradually due to exposure to environmental conditions and unexpected loadings other than for which the structure is designed. Non Destructive Testing (NDT) method provides a convenient and rapid method of determination of existing strength of concrete without subjecting the member to any damage.  In the present study, Support Vector Regression (SVR) in Python has been used for the prediction of compressive strength of concrete. Three different NDT techniques have been used as input for the SVR model. A good co-relation between predicted strength and strength determined after crushing the concrete cubes has been achieved. It has also been observed that accuracy in the predicted strength is more in case of inputs from more than one NDT technique is used.
