Non-uniform temperature fields and debonding of a long-span CFST arch bridge under coupled environmental actions by Qian Zhou, Jiao Wan, Jingzhou Xin, Jiu-qun Mao, Jianting Zhou

“…Experimental and theoretical analyses yielded several significant findings: (1) During the hydration exothermic phase, the temperature field at concrete center exhibited a tri-linear distribution pattern (characterized by rapid initial rise, subsequent decline, and final stabilization), with the ascending rate significantly exceeding the descending rate; temperatures exceeded 50°C between 25 and 73 h post-placement. (2) The external steel tube temperature demonstrated sinusoidal diurnal variations during and post-hydration, closely correlating with ambient temperature fluctuations; after hydration, concrete temperatures also followed sinusoidal diurnal distributions, with amplitudes increasing proportionally to radial distance from the center. (3) A pronounced radial temperature gradient from center to surface manifested during hydration, reaching a maximum differential of 40°C; the temperature gradients substantially decreased to 7°C after hydration. (4) Longitudinal stress differentials between the interface steel tube and concrete measured 42.5 MPa (sun-exposed side) and 74.2 MPa (shadowed side), while radial stress differentials were −1.37 MPa and −0.34 MPa, respectively. (5) The temperature field model demonstrated a tri-linear distribution pattern with an effective influence depth of D/8 to D/4 (where D represents steel tube diameter); the temperature constant exhibited significant temporal dependency on environmental conditions and hydration heat evolution. (6) Although longitudinal relative slip occurred at the steel-concrete interface during placement, no void was detected.…”
