| description | For concrete structural behavior analysis, the complete axial stress–strain curves in
compression can be determined by using a closed-loop servo-controlled hydraulic testing
machine. The applied loading as well as the axial deformation reading of the loaded concrete
specimen is recorded from the built-in displacement transducers or externally installed
transducers placed between the machine platens. However, the recorded axial strain in the
ascending branch is not purely concrete deformations but includes some additional deformation
because of machine flexibility and specimen’s end restraint. Strain gauges can be
diametrically installed at the middle of specimen for a more precise deformation reading but
additional costs are required for the gauges and data acquisition system. Moreover, the
concrete stress–strain curve and ductility performance beyond its ultimate is difficult to be
recorded without special strain measuring devices. Hence, a correction equation is needed to
account for these effects to obtain the complete stress–strain curves for unconfined and
confined concrete. In this paper, a total number of 84 unconfined and steel strapping
tensioning techniques (SSTTs) confined high-strength concrete cylinders of compressive
strength ranging from 62.48 MPa to 184.85 MPa were tested in compression in accordance
with ASTM C39/C39M-11. The details for the testing setup, testing machine, strain measuring
instruments, loading rate, loading patterns, etc. are described and at the same time a
correction factor equation is proposed in this paper. |
