Ettringite Formation

Some U.S. transportation agencies have recently applied mass concrete provisions to drilled shafts, imposing limits on maximum temperatures and maximum temperature differentials. On one hand, temperatures commonly observed in large-diameter drilled shafts have been observed to cause delayed ettringite formation (DEF) and thermal cracking in above-ground concrete elements. On the other, the reinforcement and confinement unique to drilled shafts should provide resistance to thermal cracking, and the provisions that have been applied are based on dated practices for above-ground concrete. This paper establishes a rational procedure for design of drilled shafts for durability requirements in response to hydration temperatures, which addresses both DEF and thermal cracking. DEF is addressed through maximum temperature differential limitations that are based on concrete mix design parameters. Thermal cracking is addressed through calculations that explicitly consider the thermo-mechanical response of concrete for predicted temperatures. Results from application of the procedure indicate consideration of DEF and thermal cracking potential for drilled shafts is prudent, but provisions that have been applied to date are overly restrictive in many circumstances, particularly the commonly adopted 35°F maximum temperature differential provision.

Water Pipe Cooling

To solve the problem of cracks developing on thin-walled concrete structures during construction, the authors expound on the causes of cracks and the crack mechanism. The difference between external and internal temperatures, basic temperature difference and constraints are the main reasons of crack development on thin-walled concrete structures. Measures such as optimizing concrete mixing ratio, improving construction technology, and reducing temperature difference can prevent thin-walled concrete structures from cracking. Moreover, water-pipe cooling technology commonly used in mass concrete can be applied to thin-walled concrete structures to reduce temperature difference. This method is undoubtedly a breakthrough in anti-cracking technology for thin-walled concrete structures, particularly for thin-walled high-performance concrete structures. In addition, a three-dimensional finite element method is adopted to simulate the calculation of temperature control and anti-cracking effects f. Results show the apparent temperature controlling effect of water-pipe cooling for thin-walled concrete structures.
