6 WHAT ARE COMPOSITES? Composites are a combination of two or more distinct materials Fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) Fibers (carbon or glass) Resins (epoxy matrix) Reinforced concrete Concrete (matrix) Steel (reinforcement)

7 WHY DO STRUCTURES NEED STRENGTHENING? Insufficient reinforcement Corrosion damage Change in use Structural damage Seismic upgrade 1950 s 2000 s

59 PRESATURATED SYSTEMS

60 BACKGROUND Structural Strengthening was typically done with retrofitted steel Cheap material but Labor intensive and added significant weight In the 1980 s FRP composites started to be used for strengthening concrete Light weight Easy to apply Material cost offset by ease of application Early-mid 1990 s, Sika rolls out CFRP & GFRP systems for SikaWrap 103C and SikaWrap 100G Great success Extremely messy Quality control in the field is difficult 2015, Presaturated Fabrics are introduced into the market 67

61 STRENGTHENING EVOLUTIONS STEEL Low material cost High installed cost Corrosive Heavy Fabrication required Difficult on site adjustments High maintenance COMPOSITES High material cost Low installed cost Non-corrosive Light weight No fabrication Easy field adjustments Low Maintenance Transition from steel to composite is near 100% 68

62 STRENGTHENING EVOLUTIONS COMPOSITES High material cost Low installed cost Needs resin Light weight Low maintenance No fabrication PRESAT. COMPOSITES Higher material cost Lower installed cost Resin included Light weight Low maintenance No fabrication Can PreSaturated composites be the new normal? 69

63 BACKGROUND PreSaturated FRP systems are not new Used in aerospace industry Previously required: Refrigerated/Frozen storage Short shelf life Autoclave post cure Custom, highly specialized equipment 70

108 UNDERWATER FRP

109 MOTIVATION FOR AN UNDERWATER PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Composite have gained a wide acceptance for structural strengthening of concrete structures Most of the strengthening applications are done in dry environment due to the sensitivity of these materials to cure in the presence of moisture. There is a demand and need for an FRP system which cure in the presence of water FRP jackets have been successfully used in many projects to protect structures, however they are size specific and require a complex repair process.

110 RESEARCH GOALS Develop an epoxy formulation that meet following parameters Cures underwater It is environmentally safe (mix product) Minimum bond strength of 200 psi with pre-preg, with concrete failure as a desirable failure mode Work time >90 mins with >80 % cure in 5 days. Must be able to apply easily underwater Tg of the system is 150 F (66 C)

111 DURABILITY TEST All Samples tested retained 90% bond strength from control sample Failure Modes of most samples were 100 % cohesive on concrete Environments Durability Test Results Carbon System Polypropylene felt (psi) Glass scrim (psi) Polypropylene felt (psi) Glass System Glass scrim (psi) Control Water resistance Salt water resistance Alkali resistance wet Dry heat resistance

112 DURABILITY TEST CONTINUED Water Resistance Salt Water Resistance Alkali Resistance Heat Resistance

113 COMPRESSION TESTING Systems tested: 1 layer of 18 oz presaturated carbon 1 layer of 18 oz presatruated carbon with UWP lab cure 1 layer of 18 oz presaturated carbon with UWP underwater cure Strain gauge applied at the surface of each tested cylinder

114 COMPRESSION TEST RESULTS IN GRAPHICAL FORM Baseline set at 8,000 psi. There is a 6% C. Strength reduction between dry and wet applications.
