Method of reinforcing concrete slabs

Abstract: After sanding the upper surface 6 of a concrete slab 2, thermosetting resin 13 is poured onto the upper surface, and a unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet is laid on the resin 13. The reinforcing fiber sheet is supported on the upper surface of the slab at the ends of the sheet by dry bits etc. and maintained in a stretched state, to thereby impregnate the resin into the sheet and adhere the sheet to the upper surface of the slab. After that, the resin-impregnated fiber sheet is cured to reinforce the slab. The resin used has a viscosity of 5,000 cps or less at 20°C, a thixotropic index TI of 3 or less at 20 °C, and a glass transition point Tg of 60 °C or above after hardening.

Description: This invention concerns a method of reinforicing concrete slabs such as road bridge slabs, parking lot floor slabs, and warehouse floor slabs, for example. For concrete slab such as road bridge slabs, parking lot floor slabs and warehouse floor slabs, there are various reinforcement methods, and the most common method consists of mounting steel plates to the underside of a slab. For this method, as shown for example in Fig. 6, the fragile layer such as the weathering layer of the underside 3 of the concrete slab 2 of a road bridge 1 is ground; steel plates of thickness 6 mm-9 mm are applied and secured with anchor bolts; resin is poured between the slab 2 and the steel plates 5, and the steel plates 5 are bonded to the underside 3 of the slab 2. However, this method is unsuitable for the upper surface of the road bridge slab 2. As a reinforcement method for the upper surface of the road bridge concrete slab, the following method is available. As is shown in Fig. 7, the asphalt 7 laid on the slab 2 is crushed with a rock drill 8 (Fig. 7(a)); the crushed asphalt is removed by a power shovel etc., and the upper surface 6 of the slab is exposed (Fig. 7 (b)). Following this, in order to remove the oil content 9 on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, sanding treatment is carried out by disk sander 10 or sandblasting (Fig. 7(c)). Then, a reinforcing fiber sheet is affixed to this and worked, but when sanding treatment is carried out in this way, unevenness forms on the upper surface 6, and even if the reinforcing fiber sheet is applied, thread twisting in the sheet occurs, and adequate reinforcement can not be obtained. Thereupon, as is shown in Fig. 8(a), resin mortar 11 etc. is applied by a trowel, the unevenness levelled, and the upper surface 6 made smooth. After that, a resin-impregnated unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is affixed to the levelled upper surface 6, and worked (Fig. 8(b)); the resin hardens, and the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 solidifies. By this solidified reinforcing fiber sheet (fiber-reinforced plastic) 20, the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 is strengthened or repaired. After that, if asphalt 7 is once again laid over the top (Fig. 8(c)), the strengthening or repair work of the upper surface of the slab 2 is complete. As is described above, until now when there was unevenness on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 caused by sanding, thread twisting occurred in the affixed unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20, and so the time-consuming work of coating resin mortar over the upper surface 6 following sanding treatment and leveling the upper surface was required. Another method is known from FR-A-2 594 871. However, no maintaining of a stretched state of a reinforcing fiber sheet is described therein, and viscosity of the thermosetting resin is not defined in detail. An object of this invention is to provide a reinforcement method for concrete slabs whereby strengthening can be achieved without the need for troublesome leveling work following sanding treatment. The above-mentioned object is achieved by the concrete slab reinforcement method according to the present invention. To summarize, this invention is a method of reinforcing a concrete slab which comprises: sanding an upper surface of a concrete slab by a thickness of 0.2 mm or more; pouring a thermosetting resin on the upper surface; laying a unidirectional reinforcing fibersheet over the top of the resin, and impregnating the resin into the reinforcing fiber sheet while maintaining the reinforcing sheet in a stretched state with their ends supported; adhering the reinforcing fiber sheet to the upper surface of the slab; and then hardening the impregnated resin, wherein said resin is selected from a group consisting of epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin and vinyl ester resin, and the resin has a viscosity of 5,000 cps or less at 20°C, a thixotropic index (TI) of 3 or less at 20 °C, and a glass transition point (Tg) of 60 °C or above. According to one form of this invention, the concrete slab is a road bridge slab with asphalt paving on the concrete surface. In regard to the aforementioned resin, it is possible to incorporate 0.1-5.0 wt% silane coupling agent, with the purpose of preventing the reduction of adhesive strength of the reinforcing fiber sheet owing to moisture content in the concrete on the upper surface of the slab. Embodiments of the invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings of which: Figs. 1(a) through 1(c) are process diagrams that show an embodiment of the method of reinforcing a slab using a unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet accoring to this invention; Figs. 2(a) through 2(d) are process diagrams that are a continuation of Figs. 1(a) through 1(c); Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet used in this invention; Fig 4 is a perspective view that shows the preparation method of the sample for the workability/ adhesiveness tests in the test samples of this invention; Fig. 5 is an explanatory view showing the adhesion test of the durability tests for the test sample of this invention; Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing a conventional reinforcement method for a slab using steel plates; Figs. 7(a) through 7(c) are process diagrams showing a conventional reinforcement method by a unidirectional reinforcing sheet; and Figs. 8(a) through 8(c) are process diagrams that are a continuation of Figs. 7(a) through 7(c). The distinct features of this invention are that as a thermosetting resin to be impregnated into the unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet, fluent resin is used, and without leveling the concrete slab upper surface after sanding, that resin is poured onto the upper surface of the slab, and by laying a reinforcing fiber sheet on this and maintaining the sheet in a stretched state, the resin is made to impregnate the reinforcing fiber sheet and the sheet is made to adhere to the slab upper surface. The unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20 used in this invention, as shown in Fig. 3, is formed by arranging reinforcing fibers 19 in a single direction on a supporting sheet 17 through an adhesive layer 18. As the reinforcing fibers 19, carbon fibers, glass fibers, boron fibers, alamide fibers, steel fibers, polyester fibers, and polyethylene fibers etc. may be used. Carbon fibers are particularly suitable. The quantity of the reinforcing fibers is 100-500 g/m 2 , preferably about 150-350 g/m 2 . As the supporting sheet 17, a glass cloth, a scrim cloth, a release paper, and a nylon film etc. may be used. The thickness of the supporting sheet 17 is 1-500 µm, preferably 5-100 µm. As the adhesive agent for the adhesive layer 18, epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin, and vinyl ester resin etc. may be used. The quantity of the resin is 1-50g/m 2 , preferably 2-15 g/m 2 . First of all, the process of the reinforcement method according to this invention will be explained referring to Figs. 1-2. Figs. 1-2 show when this invention is applied to the concrete slab of road bridges. In this embodiment, a carbon reinforcing sheet with carbon fibers is used for the unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet, but it is possible to use reinforcing fiber sheet of other fibers. As is shown in Fig. 1, the asphalt laid on the concrete slab 2 of a road bridge is crushed with a rock drill etc. (Fig. 1(a)), and removed by a power shovel etc., exposing the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 (Fig. 1(b)), and the surface of the upper surface 6 is sanded to a thickness of 0.2 mm or more with a sand blaster etc., and the oil content stuck to the upper surface is removed (Fig. 1(c)). Up until this point, it is the same as conventional methods. After that, as is shown in Fig. 2, the thermosetting resin 13 is poured onto the upper surface 6 (Fig. 2(a)) without leveling the unevenness of the upper surface 6 caused by sanding treatment. Next, the unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is laid on top of the resin 13 (Fig. 2(b)), and at its ends, dry bits 14 are driven into the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, and the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is kept in a tightly stretched state on top of the resin 13. In addition to maintaining that stretched state and impregnating resin 13 into the reinforcing fiber sheet 20, the resin-impregnated reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is bonded to the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, and the application of the reinforcing fiber sheet to the upper surface is completed (Fig. 2(c)). After that, the impregnated resin 13 is heat-hardened, or where thermosetting resin hardened at room temperature is used for the resin, the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is further maintained in a stretched state and cured, and the impregnated resin 13 hardened, and the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 solidifies. After that, asphalt 7 is once again laid on top, and the reinforcement or repair work is completed (Fig. 2(d)). In this invention, the thermosetting resin 13 to be used consists of epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin or vinyl ester resin. In this invention, the viscosity of this resin at 20°C is specified as 5,000 cps or less; the thixotropic index TI at 20°C is 3 or less; and the glass transition point Tg after hardening is specified as 60°C or more. In this invention, the reason the viscosity of the resin 13 at 20°C is 5,000 cps or less, is that by improving the fluidity of the resin 13, and pouring the resin 13 over the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, a smooth horizontal surface with no unevenness can be obtained, and is also in order to ensure that by improving the permeability of the resin 13 to the reinforcing fiber sheet 20, and with the reinforcing fiber sheet laid over top of the resin that has been poured over the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, the resin can be impregnated into the reinforcing fiber sheet. If the viscosity is higher than this, a smooth surface on the poured resin can not be obtained, and the time-consuming work of leveling the poured resin is required. Furthermore, the resin does not reach the fine indentations of the concrete structure of the upper surface of the slab, and inadequate bonding of the reinforcing fiber sheet to the upper surface occurs. It is more preferable for resin viscosity at 20°C to be 2,000-4,000 cps. The thixotropic index TI, in resin viscosity measurements using a B-type rotational viscometer, expresses the ratio between viscosity measured at 5 rpm and viscosity measured at 50rpm, namely TI = viscosity (at 5rpm)/ viscosity (at 50rpm) In this invention, the reason the thixotropic index TI at 20°C of resin 13 is made 3 or less, is in order to ensure that by making the resin low-thixotropic and weakening the sag stopping effect, the resin adequately covers the entire surface of the upper surface when the resin 13 is poured onto the upper surface 6 of the slab 2. When the resin's TI exceeds 3, due to the sag stopping effect, the resin hardens on part of the upper surface and fails to reach the entire surface, and does not go into the fine depressions of the upper surface's concrete structure. Therefore, it causes inadequate bonding of the reinforcing fiber sheet 20. The preferable thixotropic index TI of the resin 13 at 20°C is 1-2.5. Up until now, in reinforcing methods using the reinforcing fiber sheet, the thixotropic index TI of the resin used exceeded 3, and for this reason, when the resin was poured on the upper surface without leveling the upper surface of the concrete structure after sanding treatment, resin flowability was poor and leveling was time-consuming. Furthermore, the resin failed to go into the fine bumps and depressions following sanding treatment, which would cause inadequate bonding of the reinforcing fiber sheet. In order to avoid this up until now, as described above, resin mortar was applied to the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, and the troublesome work of leveling was required. The inventor of this invention attempted to develop a reinforcement method that would omit the troublesome leveling following sanding treatment, and as a result of his accumulated research, he discovered that if the thixotropic index TI of the resin 13 at 20°C was made 3 or less, the application of reinforcing fiber sheet was possible without leveling the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, by pouring the resin 13 on the upper surface 6, under the combined conditions of resin 13 viscosity of 5,000 cps or less at 20 °C , and they accomplished the above-mentioned method. In this invention, the glass transition point Tg of the resin was made 60 °C or more for the following reasons. In the slab of the road bridge 2, the temperature of the asphalt on top increases to 50 °C or more in summer months because of the direct sunlight which strikes the asphalt. When the glass transition point Tg of the resin impregnated in the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is less than this, the tensile strength of the reinforcing fiber sheet drops sharply, and the reinforcing effect decreases significantly. Therefore, in view of safety, it is necessary to make the resin's glass transition point Tg 60 °C or more. When constructing concrete slab such as parking lot floor slabs and warehouse floor slabs, etc., it is beneficial to make them able to prevent the decrease in strength of reinforcing fiber sheets that occurs when they are heated close to 60 °C by some source or other. It is preferable for the glass transition Tg of the resin 13 after hardening to be 65-80 °C. In regard to the quantity of resin 13 to apply to the upper surface 6, as the first layer of undercoat, 0.3-3.0 kg/m 2 is preferable. If the quantity of resin 13 is less than 0.3 kg/m 2 , it is not enough to adequately fill in the upper surface 6 unevenness caused by sanding treatment, and obtain a smooth surface on the resin 13; conversely, if the quantity exceeds 3.0 kg/m 2 , there is too much resin and it is wasted. The preferable amount of resin is 0.5-1.5 kg/m 2 . For the resin 13, it is possible to incorporate silane coupling agent in the ratio of 0.5-5.0 wt% with the aim of removing the effect of moisture content inside the concrete of the slab 2, and also to be able to ensure the adhesive strength of the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 in respect to the slab upper surface 6. In the above description, when the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is applied and cured on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, one should, ideally, secure the ends of the reinforcing fiber sheets 20 laid over the poured resin 13 with dry bits 14, and support the reinforcing fiber sheets 20 in a tightly stretched state. If the process is not carried in this way, the fibers of the reinforcing fiber sheet cause thread twisting because of the unevenness of the slab upper surface, and the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing fiber sheet becomes impossible to adequately obtain. According to this invention, when re-laying asphalt 7 after the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 applied to the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 solidifies, sand such as grain-size silica sand having a coarse grain-size on the reinforcing fiber sheets can be spread before the resin impregnated into the reinforcing sheet hardens, with the aim of blocking asphalt heat, and moreover to improve adhesiveness with the asphalt, and prevent slip with the solidified reinforcing fiber sheet 20. As a sand grain-size, about 0.5-5.0 mm is desirable, and a spreading amount of about 1.0-5.0 kg/m 2 is preferable. The reinforcing method of this invention as exemplified above, and has the following advantages: (1) While unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20, and in particular unidirectional carbon fiber sheet is thin, the fiber sheet has a strong reinforcing effect and easy workability; (2) Because the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 is thin, even if it is worked on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 there is almost no difference in level, and even if asphalt 7 is laid once again on top of that, the asphalt lasts a long time without peeling; (3) The thermosetting resin 13 has low viscosity and low thixotropy, so by pouring resin 13 on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, a smooth surface on the poured resin can easily been obtained, and it is not necessary to level the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 following sanding treatment; (4) Resin will go into large cracks on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, and can also be expected to be effective in repairing cracks; (5) Depending on the use of water or penetration of rainwater etc. during cutting of the asphalt pavement, it is easily dealt with even if the upper surface 6 of the slab 2 is wet, by combining silane coupling agent in the resin 13, and adequate bonding strength of the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 can be obtained with the wet upper surface 6. Below, the test examples according to this invention will be explained. Workability/ Adhesiveness test As is shown in Fig. 4, there were carried out tests on the workability and adhesiveness of the reinforcing fiber sheet, using a concrete slab 2 cut out from an existing road bridge. (1) After removing the asphalt remaining on the upper surface 6 of the slab 2, sanding treatment was applied to 7 places on the upper surface of the slab in 1m x 1m areas respectively, as is shown in Fig. 4, and produced 7 test surfaces 21 (Case Nos. 1-5: Comparative Examples, Case Nos. 6-7: Examples); (2) Resin 13 was poured in a ratio of 1kg/m 2 onto each test surface 21 from their central parts; (3) Two unidirectional carbon fiber sheets manufactured by Tonen Corporation (FORCA TOW SHEET FTS-C1-30) as unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet 20, each having a size of 0.5 m (w) x 1m (1), were laid side by side on top of the resin 13; after that, while supporting their ends with dry bits 14 etc, and maintaining the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 in a stretched state. The reinforcing fiber sheet 20 used was one layer. (4) After permeation of the resin 13 into the reinforcing fiber sheets 20 while maintaining their stretched state, and carrying out bonding operations to the test surfaces 21, the fiber sheets were cured indoors for one week, and made them the test samples; (5) Adhesion tests on the samples were conducted in accordance with KEN KEN SHIKI method, and visual observations of thread twisting were made. Five locations were evaluated: the opposite angle positions P of the square formed by the two reinforcing fiber sheets, and the central areas Q. Sanding Treatment consisted of the following two types: Sanding Treatment A: Disk sander treatment. An average thickness of approximately 0.1 mm was ground. Sanding Treatment B: Sandblast Treatment. An average thickness of 0.3 mm was ground. The thermosetting resin used for working consisted of the following three types: Tonen-manufactured FR resin FR-E3P (epoxy resin) : Viscosity at 20°C = 24,000 cps, Ti= 4.1, Tg= 50°C Tonen-manufactured FR resin FR-E3 (epoxy resin) : Viscosity at 20°C = 2,000 cps, TI= 2.3, Tg = 50°C Tonen-manufactured FR resin FR-E5 (epoxy resin) : Viscosity at 20 °C = 1,500 cps, TI= 1.8, Tg = 70°C Evaluation results are shown in Table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, for Case Nos. 6-7 that were in conformance with this invention, and for Case No. 5, whose resin was outside the range of this invention, satisfactory results were obtained both in terms of external appearance and in adhesion tests following curing. High temperature test Using the resin employed in the aforementioned workability/adhesiveness tests, one layer of Tonen-manufactured unidirectional carbon fiber sheet (FORCA TOW SHEET, FTS-C1-300) was applied on top of mortar board, cured for seven days at 20°C to use as a sample, and a tension test (in conformance with JIS K7073) and a mortar adhesion test (in conformance with JIS A6909) (room temperature tests) were carried out. And with the samples that had been cured for seven days at 20 °C and those that had been cured for one day at 60°C, a tension test (same as mentioned above), and a mortar adhesion test (same as mentioned above) in an atmosphere of 60 °C (60°C tests) were carried out. From these tests, the performances at high temperature were evaluated. Those results are shown in Table 2. Furthermore, for the above-mentioned mortar adhesion test, a steel attachment 23 was fixed with an adhesive agent to the reinforcing fiber sheet 20 that had been applied to the upper surface of the mortar piece 22, as shown in Fig. 5(a). Then, the mortar piece 22 was set to stationary jig 24 of a tension test apparatus (not shown), and with the aide of the attachment 23, a pull out test was carried out. The sheet 20 was cut to the mortar layer at each end of the attachment 23 before the adhesion test. Comparative Examples Examples FR-E3P FR-E3 FR-E5 Room temperature tensile strength : average values 453 kgf/mm 2 445 kgf/mm 2 450 kgf/mm 2 (Maximum/Minimum) (483/418) (474/420) (467/440) 60°C tensile strength : average values 286 kgf/mm 2 293 kgf/mm 2 403 kgf/mm 2 (Maximum/Minimum) (303/270) 308/280) (421/376) Room temperature adhesion test : average values 21 kgf/mm 2 21 kgf/mm 2 22 kgf/mm 2 (Individual data) (22, 22, 20) (21, 21, 20) 23, 20, 22) Failure mode Mortar bulk failure Mortar bulk failure Mortar bulk failure 60°C Adhesion test : average values 8kgf/mm 2 9 kgf/mm 2 21 kgf/mm 2 (Maximum/Minimum) (7, 8, 8) (8, 7, 18) (20, 22, 21) Failure mode Sheet failure Sheet failure Mortar bulk failure Judgement Unsatisfactory Unsatisfactory Satisfactory In Table 2, the room temperature and 60°C tensile strength refers to the tensile strength at the designed thickness base, which means the value obtained by dividing the breaking load by the designed thickness of the reinforcing fiber sheet and the test sample width. Also, sheet failure refers to the failure mode expressed in Fig. 5(b), where the breakage occured within the sheet which had been applied to the mortar piece surface, and indicates that the performance at 60°C of the employed resin 13 is poor. Mortar bulk failure refers to the failure mode shown in Fig. 5(c), where the breakage occured inside the mortar piece, and shows that the performance at 60 °C of the employed resin 13 is good. As Table 2 shows, the epoxy resin FR-E5 (viscosity at 20 °C : 1,500 cps, TI at 20 °C : 1.8, Tg: 70 °C ) displayed good performance at 60°C. Among the room temperature evaluations in Table 1, Case No. 5 was also satisfactory similar to Case Nos. 6 and 7, but from the 60 °C test results of Table 2, the performance at 60 °C is poor because Tg of the resin used in the application (FR-E3) is low (50 °C), and it is determined that only the embodiments of this invention, Case Nos. 6 and 7, are satisfactory. As described above, according to the reinforcement method of this invention, unidirectional reinforcing fiber sheet is applied to the upper surface of the concrete slab of a road bridge etc. without the need for troublesome leveling work following sanding; resin can permeate and be applied to reinforcing sheets; and reinforcement or repair of slab upper surfaces by reinforcing fiber sheet can be carried out simply and effectively.
