Variable Restraint Testing Variable Restraint Testing Machine Machine

Fresh concrete is cast into the framework of the testing machine.

Specimen size is 1500 mm in length and 100 mm x 100 mm in cross sectional area

The ends of specimen are fixed to the cross-head, which is fixed to the frame, by claws which hold the concrete specimen and are able to exert tensile or compressive force.

The load through the specimen is monitored by a load cell with accuracy of 1 N.

The longitudinal deformation of concrete specimen is monitored by four LVDTs with accuracy of 0.125 μm.

Experiment is commenced after the concrete setting.

Program Flow of Simulated Program Flow of Simulated Completely-Restrained TestCompletely-Restrained Test

Completely restrained condition is simulated by maintaining the total deformation of the specimen within a threshold, which is defined as the permissible change in the length of the specimen.

There are two controlling triggers.

One is stressstress trigger. Another is strainstrain

trigger.

While repeating this process in VRTM,a completely-restrained condition is achieved andthe stress generated by shrinkage is measured.
