FEM simulations applied to the failure analysis of RC structure under the influence of municipal sewage pressure
Abstrakt
The paper discusses a failure mechanism of reinforced concrete (RC) structure with steel cover that failed under the influence of municipal sewage pressure. To explain the reasons of failure, in-situ measurements, laboratory experiments and comprehensive Finite Element Method (FEM) computations were performed. Non-destructive in-situ scanning tests were carried out to determine quantity and cover thickness of embedded reinforcement bars, simultaneously, laboratory tests regarding concrete and shotcrete thickness, density and compressive strength were performed on samples prepared from core drills taken from the RC structure. FEM computations were carried out with the constitutive continuum model for concrete and steel with material parameters designated on the basis of stress-strain curves in uniaxial compression and uniaxial tension, respectively. An isotropic coupled elasto-plastic-damage formulation based on the strain equivalence hypothesis was used. In order to describe strain localization in concrete, model was enhanced in a softening regime by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. FEM analyses were carried out for different values of sewage pressure. The main attention was paid to the evolution of steel cover deformation and strain localization of the RC ceiling slab. FEM results revealed strong dependence between a bond-slip between anchors and steel cover deformation as well as between sewage pressure value and strain localization pattern of RC structure. Mechanism of the structure failure under complex loading conditions was realistically captured and its reasons were discussed in detail.
