OVERVIEW OF RESEARCH RESULTS OF THE INFLUENCE OF GRAIN SIZE ON BEAMS OF DIFFERENT STRUCTURES OF CONCRETE BY INTERPOLATION
Abstract
In order to research the influence of the dimensions there have been used the samples of slotted beams on two supports and loaded by force capacity of P = 200 kN and the sensitivity of 100 N fractured (load cell), in the middle, deformations were measured at the point of load and the top of each slot of 50 mm with the sensitivity instrument of 100x10-6 mm LVDT (Tokyo Sokki Kenkyujo Co.SDP-50C). During load all deformations are directly stored with the data logger (30 channels Bucem) that is constantly connected to the computer. The thickness of all samples is constant t = 4 cm and the other two dimensions of height h and length L are changed proportionally. For testing are used three different sizes of the beams and from each sizes are used the three samples. To a mixture of concrete were used two aggregate fractions. A large fraction is 4.76 to 10 mm, smaller fraction is 3 to 4,76 mm. First, sand is put into a mixer, followed by gravel and cement in the dry state and this is going to be mixed for about 2 minutes, after that, the water is added and mixing is going to be carried out for about 2 minutes. From the same samples were set aside the 3 samples in the molds of cylindrical forms with a diameter of 150 mm and a height of 300 mm to determine the brand of concrete. There was used the portland cement (350).
