Several Models of Cold Joints - GDR Telecom Site Energy Systems [PDF]
Many factors concurrently affect cold joint formation, yet a suitable tool for their categorization is missing. Here, we present a computational model that simulates the drying kinetics at the exposed structural
Given the adaptability of the CZM in simulating concrete cold joint structures, this paper combines CZM with a meso-modeling approach to develop a 3D four-phase RFC model that
A smooth cold joint of concrete is an untreated weak plane caused by an interruption of the casting process, which can significantly affect the performance of a structural system. In this paper, the
The study aims to measure the reduction in compressive and flexural strength of concrete specimens containing cold joints, evaluate the effect of cold joint orientation (vertical, horizontal, or
In this paper, the problem of the generation of cold joints is approached from two complementary perspectives.
This study introduces a mechanics‐based numerical model to characterize the behavior of cold joints in reinforced concrete members subjected to monotonic loading.
To resolve the issue of cold joints forming in concrete during the construction process, this study has developed a control system with visual prevention capabilities.
Question: When should saw cuts be made on a concrete slab?
Abstract This study introduces a mechanics-based numerical model to characterize the behavior of cold joints in reinforced concrete members subjected to monotonic loading.
Drawing upon existing literature, including numerical simulations and experimental testing, this study presents a robust simplified numerical simulation modeling framework for predicting the behavior of
