28、FRP) composite reinforcement using accelerated conditioning protocols (ACPs) in combination with stan-dard test methods for mechanical properties. The purpose of this guide is to document ACPs so that a standardized method can be created to gather data to eventually be used as a screening or accepta

29、nce tool.FRP composites are increasingly being used in infra-structure applications as reinforcing bars and externally bonded reinforcement for strengthening reinforced concrete elements. The use of FRP composites is predicated on perfor-mance attributes linked to their light weight, high stiffness-

30、to-weight and strength-to-weight ratios, ease of installation in the field, potential low system cost, and potentially high overall durability.FRP composites are used by many industries, including automotive, marine, and aerospace. They have success-fully been applied in pipelines, underground stora

31、ge tanks, building faades, and as architectural components. The materials, loading conditions, and environments seen in many infrastructure applications, however, are unique. Anecdotal evidence provides substantial reason to believe that, if appropriately designed and fabricated, FRP compos-ites can

32、 provide longer service life and lower maintenance costs than steel-reinforced structures.FRP composites have been in use as concrete reinforce-ment since the 1980s. Consequently, long-term performance field data are limited, making it essential that potential vulnerabilities regarding FRP durabilit

33、y be identified and addressed early to ensure expected long-term service. One means to identify long-term vulnerability is through the use of accelerated conditioning. Few standard protocols for conducting durability testing exist, making it difficult to draw detailed conclusions from the present da

34、tabase of test results generated over the past two decades. Comparing tests conducted at different laboratories is often complicated by the large number of variables among tests.FRP composite reinforcement embedded in concrete will experience different environmental influences than those experienced

35、 by externally bonded FRP composite reinforce-ment. Externally bonded FRP composite reinforcement is typically exposed directly to ambient environmental condi-tions where embedded reinforcement is not. In many appli-cations, the bond of externally bonded FRP composite rein-forcement is critical to t

36、he short- and long-term structural performance of the system. Due to the fundamental differ-ence in exposure conditions of internal and external FRP composite reinforcement, different ACPs and mechanical testing for internal and external FRP composite reinforce-ment are necessary. In either case, du

37、rability, in the context of this guide, is defined as a measure of the retention of FRP physical and mechanical properties when exposed to the ACP environments for the prescribed duration.An overview of the evaluation process includes the following four elements:1) Specimen fabrication and preparati

38、onProcess used to fabricate the specimen and prepare it for exposure to the ACP.2) Accelerated conditioning protocolSets out the parameters for the environment and stress, including dura-tion, to which the specimen will be exposed (Chapter 4). Additional control specimens are stored in ambient labor

39、a-tory conditions.3) Mechanical testingTests the accelerated conditioned (AC) and control specimens following the exposure period. Testing is completed under unexposed conditions (Chapters 5 and 6).4) Residual mechanical property determinationThe method used to evaluate the effect of ACP on mechanic

40、al properties (Chapters 5 and 6).1.2ScopeThis document provides guidance on using ACPs and associated standard mechanical test methods to assess the durability of FRP composite reinforcement for concrete with the objective to enable manufacturers to characterize the durability of their FRP products

41、and to encourage researchers and testing laboratories to adopt common test protocols to build a meaningful database of durability test results for FRP materials. Results of the tests conducted using the recommended protocols are not intended for use directly in the design of FRP composites. They are

42、 meant to generate a database of consistent test results that can be American Concrete Institute Copyrighted Material www.concrete.org2 ACCELERATED CONDITIONING PROTOCOLS FOR DURABILITY ASSESSMENT OF FRP REINFORCEMENT (ACI 440.9R-15)used in the future to refine the environmental factors recom-mended

43、 in ACI 440.1R, 440.2R, and 440.7R. Recommended environmental reduction factors used in the design of FRP composite reinforcement are provided in ACI 440.1R and 440.2R and are outside the scope of this guide.The results of the conditioning and testing recommended in this guide are not intended to be

44、 useful in the prediction of service life. The use of these methods in conjunction with field evaluations of the performance of structures with FRP composite reinforcement in service conditions is encouraged. Future correlation of accelerated methods with field perfor-mance can help validate and imp

45、rove confidence in their use.Physicochemical tests that measure the changes in the physical and chemical properties of FRP materials can also be useful in assessing degradation of the material and its constituents after being subjected to the ACPs described in this guide.CHAPTER 2NOTATION AND DEFINI
