Research on Quantitative Characterization Model of Compressive Strength or Elastic Modulus of Recycled Concrete Based on Pore Grading.

The influence of different pore sizes on the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete is an important issue in the academic circle. Aiming at this problem, a quantitative characterization model of the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete based on pore grading was established in this paper. The compressive strength, elastic modulus, porosity and distribution of pore size of recycled concrete were measured by a concrete test and nuclear magnetic resonance technology, and the influences of different pore sizes on the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete were analyzed, and the rationality of the quantitative characterization model was verified. The results showed that the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete decreased with the increase in the recycled coarse aggregate replacement rate, and the decrease was more obvious with the increase in the substitution rate. The peak pore diameter in the distribution curve of porosity and pore diameter of recycled concrete increased, and the proportion of pore diameter above 50200 nm and 200 nm also increased. The pore sizes, including those below 20 nm and 2050 nm, had a positive correlation with the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete, while the pore sizes, including those above 50~200 nm and 200 nm, had a negative correlation with the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete. The test results of recycled concrete verify that the quantitative characterization model could better characterize the compressive strength and elastic modulus of recycled concrete.
