Measurement of acoustic emission at fibre reinforcement concrete slab with subsoil

Measurement of acoustic emission at fibre reinforcement concrete slab with subsoil

Paper in proceedings (conference paper)

The paper deals with the possibility of using the acoustic emission (AE) measurement for the identification of cracks and failure in fibre concrete slabs in interaction with subsoil. In this specific task it is not possible to check visually cracking on the slab bottom surface. The research task included an experimental load test of a slab and supplemented laboratory testing to determine the mechanical properties of fibre concrete. The concrete used has a dosage of 25 kg/m3 fibres. Laboratory tests included cube and cylindrical compressive strength, flexural strength and split tensile strength. Homogeneity of the concrete mixture, i.e. uniform distribution of the fibres, was proven with testing of the split tensile strength both evenly and perpendicularly to the direction of filling the concrete mixture into the form. Experimental load test of slab on subsoil was performed on fibre concrete slab with plan dimensions 2000 x 2000 mm and thickness 150 mm. Concrete slab was loaded in the middle with force load step 75 kN. AE measurements were provided using track sensors.
