Chapter 15 SESSEReeuge gsChapter 1 - Materials and Components for Reinforced Concrete Construction DEFINITIONS Conorete is. a non-homogencous miinufacturcd Stoie composed of graded, granular inert materials which are held together by the action of cement and water, The inert materials usually consist of gravel or large particles of crusted ‘stone, and sand or pulverized stone. Manufactured lightweight materials are also used. The inert materials aro called aggregates. The large particles are called coarse aggregates and the small particles are called fine aggregates. Concrete behaves very well when subjected to compressive forces, but ruptures suddenly when simall tension forces. cre: applied. Therefore in order to utilize this material effectively, stect reinforcement is placed in the areas subjected to tension Reinforced concrete is a composite material which utilizes the concrete in resistirie compression forces, iad some other material, usually steel bars or wires, to resist the tension forces. Stcel is also ofien used to assist the concrete in resisting. compression forces. Concrete is always assumed to be incapable of resisting tension, even though i actually can resist a small amount of tension. ‘A number of definitions are presented in the following list taken from the Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete, ACI 318-83, of the American Concrete Institute, (This code is usually referred to as the ACI Code.) For conversion factors between U.S. customary units and metric (SI) units, refer to Appendix A-1. Note: In this book the word “density” shalt be understood as weight density (unit weight) in the context of U.S, customary units, and as mass density in the context of SI units Admixture—A material other than Poriland Cement, aggrégnte or water added to concrete to modify its properties Aggregate—Inert material which: is mixed with Portland Cement and water to produce concrete Aggregate, lghiweight—Agarégate faving a dry, loose density of 701b/f (1100 kg/m’) oF Tess Building official—City Engineer, Plan Examiner, ete.

Cement may be obtained from nature {natural cement) or it may be manufactured, When manufactured, cement usually conforms to certain specifications of the ASTM. When theCHAP. 1] material is so matiufactured, iti clisified as Portland Cemeni, and concrete nade using this material is called Portland. Cement Concrete, or simply, concrete. In general, Portland Cement is manufactured using definite proportions of various calcareous materials; whiclt ere burned to, form clinkers. The clinkers are pulverized to.a powderlike form, which then’becomes cement. Portland Cement is generally available in a number of different types: (1) Normal Portland Cément—used for general purposes when specific properties are not required, (2). Modified Portland Cement—for use when low heat of hydration is desired, such as in mass concrete, huge piers, heavy abutments and heavy retaining walls, particularly when the ‘weather is hot. (Type 1 may be more desirable in cold weather.) (3) High-early-sirength Portiand Cement—for use when very high strengti is desired at an early age. (4) Low-heat-of hydration Portland Cement—for use in latge masses such as dams. Low heat of hydration is desirable to reduce cracking and shrinkage. (5) Sulfate-resistant Portland Cement—for use when the structure will be exposed to soil or water having 2 high alkali content (6) Air-entrained Portland Cement—for use when severe frost action is present, or when salt application is used to remove show of ice from the structure. (7) Shrinkage-compensating Portland Cement. (expansive cement)—which expands as the con- erete cures, thus compensating for some shrinkage. ‘Table: 1.1 shows the variations in strength of identical mixtures using different types of cement. ‘Table 1.1 Approximate Relative Strengths of Concrete as Affected by Type of Cement ‘Compressive streagth—percent of strengitt Type of Poithind Cement of normal Portland Cement Consr 3 days 28 days 23 montis ToNomal ssecesscaere 100 100 100 2—Mesified = 35 100 3+ High early strength . 10 130 us 4Low-heat _ 50 65 0 S—Sullate-resistant-..- 6 65 % It should be noted here that other types of cement are also available. Some cements are made using blast furnace sleg, while others consist of a mixture known ‘as Portland-Pozzolen Cement Pozzolan cement is generally a natural cement. These types of cement have rather special areas of application which will not be discussed in detail in this book. AGGREGATES Aggregates form the bulk of the concrete components, Fine aggregates consist-of sand or other fine grained inert material usually less-than 3" (6.4 mm) maximum size. Coarse egaregates consist of gravel or crushed rock usually larger then 3" (6.4 mm) size and usually less than 3” (76 mm) size. WATER Warer is 2n.important ingredient in the concrete mixture.

Thus sea water 's not recommended for use in mixing concrete, WATER-CEMENT RATIO ‘The water-cement ratio is the most important single factor involved in mixing conercte. Using average materials, the strength of the concrete and all of the other desirable properties of concrete are directly related to the water-cement ratio. ULTIMATE STRENGTH AND DESIGN OF CONCRETE MIXES: The ultimate sirengih of concrete is generally defined as the-compressive strength of a molded concrete cylinder or prism after proper caring for 28 days and is designated as j", measured in psi (MPa). Using average materia’, the ultimate strengih in compression for various water-cement ratios can be predicted with recsonable accuracy using Table 1.2.

Concrete mixtures can be designed to provide a given stréngth and other desirable properties by properly proportioning all of the materials. Two gencral methods are currently in use: (1) The arbitrary proportions method and (2) the trial batch method. The arbitrary proportions method is based on the assumption that average materials will be used and that ordinary waight aggregates (j.2. sand and gravel or crushed stone) will be used. When lightweight structural aggregates are used, or if the design strength exceecls 4000 psi (30 MPa), this method may not be used. If the aggregates are properly graded and proportioned the 28 day compressive strength of concrete may be based on the water-cement ratios shown in Table 1.3.

A number of factors which enter into the trial batch method are discussed in the following paragraphs. FINENESS MODULUS | ‘The fineness modulus indicates the relative fineness of the aggregates, The aggregates are sieved using standard screeas and the weight of all of the particies larger than a given size is tabulatogh, ‘The percent retained on sieves No. 4,-8, 16, 30, 50-and 100 is tabulated, as well as that passing the No. 100 sieve. The sum of the weights retained on all GE the sieves larger than a given sieve is accumulated and. then added together and divided by 100. The result, always larger than 1.0, is the fineness modulus. Specifications for sieve analysis are usually provided as part of a general specification for ‘concrete on major projects. One example of the sieve analysis specifiéations is that of the U.S. Dept. of Interior, which is shown in Teble 1.4. hs ‘Table 1.4 Ranges of Percentages © of Aggregate Sizes for Concrete Construetion vere Siea | Petceit Rewined | Sieve Size | “(Cumslative) Nord ve 5 No. 8 101020 No. 16 2010 40 No. 30 401070 No. 50 - 70 1 85 i No. 100 90.20 98 AGGREGATE SIZE AND EFFECTS ON CONCRETE, Aggregate’ gradation enters into the consideration of the sireiigth and workability of concrete.

The standard method of determining the relative consistency of concrete is the slump test. In this test, a standard slump cone is filed ia three layers, Todding cach layéx.25 times. The conercte is smoothed off at the top of the cone. The cone is then lifted vertically, permitting the concrete to slump downward. The distance between the original and final surfaces of the concrete is called the slump and is measured in inches.

Table 1.9 indicates the approximate mixing water requirements for the variables which affect the stump of concrete. ENTRAINED AIR AND DISPERSING AGENTS Air is entrapped naturally ia concrete during the mixing process, Experience has shown that if sit is entrained artificially using air-entramning agents the quantity of mixing Water required to produce a given consistency will be reduced. The entrained air reduces friction between the particles and lessens the need for water as a lubricant, Dispersing agents break the surface tension in water bubbles and accomplish some of the same effects as ait-entraining agents.

When such is the case, a conservative method is available: The proportions shown in Table 1.11, although not precise, will prove to be satisfactory fer small work and for work at locations where the more scientific process cannot Be ised, Fig, 1-1:shows the usual range in proportions of materidils used in concrete. These ranges can be used as a guide for concrete mix-design. Pee sateen teh esas cote te ‘il bmall segrpats. 3 F at Mix B is the starting point. [f the mix appears to be under-sanded, change to mix A, If the mix is overssanded, change to mix C. Invall cases the mixes refer to dry materizls and there’ must be adjustments for water in the aggregates. ‘The water-cement ratio may be obtained from Table 1.3 fora given strength of concrete. WATER IN THE AGGREGATES The weter-coment ratio must be carefully preserved if the sesulls are to be reproducible from one batch to another. For this reason, free water in the aggregates must be considered: as part of the xing water. Since the free water varies trom time to time in « given stock pile of agerepates, it is necessary to determine the free water content scveral times each day, with the added water adjusted accordingly. A definite procedure is available for determining the free water in the aggregates. A representative sample of aggregates is weighed. The surféces of the particies are then dried to a satwrated-surface dry state in an oven or pan, or by pouring aleohol on the aggregates and se afire. The dried aggregates are then weighed. ‘The percentage moisture (by weight or density of the agerceate) is obtained using the equation 000, — Wp) (Hp, (22) in which p—peroitage of moistuie by dry weight or density, w,,=wet weight or density of the material, and w,, = dry weight or density of the material. The pereentage of surjace wateris deducted from the total water required itt order to obtain the desired water-cement ratio. QUANTITY OF CONCRETE OBTAINED The quantity of concrete or yield of a trial batch is used to predict the quantity of concrete to be obtained from the job mix. The yield is predicted using the absolute volume method to obtain the absolute volume of each of the coniponent materials (jc. gravel, sand, cement and Water) using the equation V, = (weight of loose material) /(SG)(w,) (12)2 MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS icHap. 1 absolute volume of material, ft° (m’); SG=specific gravity of the material; and of water (62.4 Ib/ft° or 1000 kg/m'), MAKING, CURING AND TESTING SPECIMENS Making Cylinders Test cylinders are made using the trial batch method in order to obtain the true strength of the manufactured material, The cylinders are also used during construction torinsure that the strength of the concrete is maintained at the desired level. The fresh concrete is placed in a cylindrical mold in 3 layers. Bach layer is rodded 25 times, The concrete is troweled smooth at the top surface and the ojlinder allowed to air cure for 24 hours, after which it is placed in a damp room under controlled humidity and temperature to age for 28 days. After the curing period has elapsed, the cylinders are tested in a testing machine to determine the compressive strength /:, the modulus of elasticity Ez, and often the complete stress-strain diagram. Dimensions of test cylinders (and cubes) are discussed under Compressive strength of concrete, age 1. It should be mentioned here that the Canadian Standards recognize a method that predicis the 28 day strength after the concrete is only. one day in place. The cylinders are boiled in waier and. then tested for compressive strength. Empirical equations predict the 28 day strength within about 10 percent, plus or minus, G 12 Cylinders Proper curing of specimens is vitally important (© the strength of the concrete. Moist curing is the most desirable method; as shown in Fig. 1-2, ‘Temperature of curing also affects concrete strength, as seen from Fig 1-3, since strength and other desirable properties of concrete improve more rapidly at normal temperature than at low temperatures fe ee 5 a eel owe z wee ete : a == Fa p= meres 5 ic aes ip cH oll 4 Age att Fig. 12.

The modulus is used for deflection and stability calculations in both the alternate design method and the strengti design method. STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND THE STRESS-STRAIN DIAGRAM In order to derive equations for the design of reinforced concrete structural elements it is necessary to describe the stress-strain function mathematicilly. After establishing an equation for the stresses in the corloree, itis only necessary to integrate the equation to obtain the magnitude and point of application of the total compression force. Fig. 1-7 illustrates the various stages of development of the stress-strain function as the loads are increased. Selection of a design method depends on which slage to be used as a basis of proportioning the structural elements Fig. 1-7(q) is used in the working stress design method, limiting f, to # maxi The diagram is consitered to be linear, and the relationship hetween the elastic moduli of sicel aad concrete is used fo transform the steel into equivalent concrete.

This based on'etperimental data, using statistical methods for correlation.16 MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS [CHAP 1 @ Oy © @ o Strain Stress Fig. 17 In general practice an equivalent rectangular siress-block (¢) is used to approximate the effects of the true ultimate stress-strain diagram. The limits of the block are defined so as to provide a total force in compression identical to that developed by the true diagram ‘and to locate the force at its true point of application. ‘The 1983 ACI Code permits the’ use of any mathematical expression for describing the stress-strain diagram, providing the resulting equations will be in general agreement with comprehen- sive test results. The rectangular stress block fulfils these requirements. ‘TENSILE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE ‘The tensile strength of plain conerete is rather. small compared to the compressive strength, and tension in the concrete ig always neglected in design practice. It is important, however, to give some consideration to the tensile strength with regard to combined stresses which cause diagonal tension failure, et cine tis bea iad ie obtaining the tensile strength of concrete in past years. A method has been developed for obtaining a measure of the tensile strength, calied the split-cylinder test: Standard coneretc cylinders arc loaded along the sides until the cylinder splits. The stress at which splitsing occurs is designated as the split cylinder strength, fy. This value is used to determine a design factor Pa hylNTe (14) ‘This factor is used in connection with shear stresses in concrete design 10 guard against iagonel tension feilure. REINFORCING STEEL Steel reinforcing for concrete consists of bars, wires and welded wire fabric, all of which are ‘manufactured in accord with ASTM specifications.

Tables 1.12 and 1.13 indicate the sizes, numbers and various properties of cutrently usec reinforcing bars; Table 1.13 has been provided by the Reinforcing Stel Institute of Canada, The bars listed in Tables 1.12 and 1.13 are used primarily for main reinforcement in beams slabs, columns, footings, walls and other structural elements, Bar sizes Nos. 3, 4 and 5 (10M, 15M) are often used for spirals and laeral res in columns and as stirrups in beams. Spiral bars are usually plain, without deformations. Reinforcing steel rods having diameters less than 1” (6 mm) are referred to as wires, and the sizes are designated by the AW & $ yage number. BENDING OF REINFORCING BARS FOR ‘STRUCTURAL CONSIDERATIONS "Peso Fig 19 Reinforcement is usually placed in the tension zone since the concrete is assumed to be incapable of resisting tension. Bars are, however, also often used in the compression zone. It is economical to use bent-up bars in such cases, Further, in order to anchor the bars properly to resist bond stresses, hooks are often provided at the ends of bars as shown in Fig. 1.10. Bars must be embedded properly in order to provide anchorage. Bending or trussing of bars is often used to accomplish this purpose. Ties or spirals ate always used in columns to hold the main vertical bars in place and to confine Tongitudinal bars. Stirrups are oftén wed in beams to hold the longitudinal steel in place, but most important function of stitups is 0 resist diagonal tension stzesses. ‘The concrete acting alone cannot always resist all of the shear stress which is pesent, thus the stirrups are uscd. Fig. 1-10 shows typical examples of bar bending for various purposes Numerous shapes of bent bars are used, Some are used so frequently that pattern numbers have been standardized. Bent bars are therefore often called for by pattern number, indicating the various ‘center to center dimensions in @ tabular form. Radi of bend have been standardized and are specified in the AC Code. The bend radii and extensions are usually specified in terms of the diameter of the size bar being bent, with minimum ‘extensions beyond the bead being specified. Bars should be bent cold in a fabricating plant. Bending bars.on the job is usually not permitted except in special cases. Under no circumstances should a bar be heated since this introduces residual stresses into the bar. Torches should never be used to cut bars to the desired length. Bending of bars Which have been partially embedded in conerete is prohibited except when the enginect states that such bars may be bent, Standard hooks consist of one of the following: (a) A 180 degree tum plus an extension of at least 4 bar diameters. The extension must be at least 2} in, (64mm) long.
