1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose
-Non-Proprietary Version -Prepared By MPR Associates, Inc. 320 King Street Alexandria, VA 22314 Checked By Page: 4 Revision:
0 This calculation evaluates the applicability of the elastic modulus equation provided in Section 8.5.l of ACI 318-71 (Reference
- 2) to the concrete mix used in the Beam Test Programs that MPR is sponsoring at Ferguson Structural Engineering Laboratory (FSEL). 1.2 Background MPR is developing a methodology to determine the through-thickness expansion of concrete structures at Seabrook Station due to Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR). The through-thickness expansion results in a reduction in the elastic modulus. One approach for estimating the original elastic modulus (i.e., the elastic modulus before ASR expansion occurs) is to calculate it using the 28-day compressive strength of the concrete and the equation provided in ACI 318-71. 2.0
SUMMARY
OF RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of this calculation, the relationship between the measured 28-day compressive strength and the elastic modulus for the test specimens within the Beam Test Programs at FSEL is consistent with the ACI equation.
The measured data and calculated results show a similar trend. Measured and calculated elastic modulus values for all but three data sets were within the variability range stated in Reference 2, 20%. 3.0 APPROACH Section 8.5.l of ACI 318-71(Reference2) states thatthe 28-day elastic modulus (Ee) of concrete can be calculated based on the density of concrete in lb/ft 3 (we) and the 28-day compressive strength of concrete (fc'). This relationship is expressed using Equation 1. (1) Section R8.5 .1 of ACI 318 (Reference
- 2) also states that measured values for elastic modulus range from 80% to 120% of the calculated value. Reference 3 provides the basis for Equation 1 and supports Reference
- 2. Equation 1 is based on light weight and normal weight concrete test data from various published articles and unpublished reports from the Expanded Shale, Clay, and Slate Institute.
The elastic modulus for normal weight concrete (approximate density of can be calculated using Equation 2, a simplified version of Equation 1. (Reference

0 (2) As part of the Shear and Reinforcement Anchorage Test Programs and Instrumentation Specimen Testing, FSEL has determined the 28-day concrete elastic modulus and compressive strength for each beam specimen fabricated to date. These tests use cylinders molded at the time of concrete placement.
In addition to the 28-day data, data are also available from cores removed from the test specimens used for control tests (i.e., tests performed shortly after 28 days, before the onset of deleterious ASR expansion).
The results of the FSEL elastic modulus and compressive strength tests are compared to Equation 2 (and therefore Equation 1) in this calculation to confirm that the ACI equation is applicable to the concrete mix used in the Beam Test Programs.
4.0 INPUTS
As stated in Section 3.0, the 28-day elastic modulus and the 28-day compressive strength of twenty beams, collected by FSEL, were used to confirm the applicability of Equations 1 and 2. A total of-data sets were evaluated.
The data were taken from the Special Test and Inspection Records (STIRs) listed in Table 1. (Reference 5 through Reference

- 5. 1 Concrete Density Verification It is important to note that the density of concrete varies slightly among the beams that were tested. However, all test beams are composed of normal weight concrete (144 Ib 3). ft The simplified equation for normal weight concrete, Equation 2, is therefore applicable and was used to calculate the elastic moduli reported in this calculation.
The relevance of Equation 2 was verified by calculating the density of a beam and comparing it to the density of normal weight concrete.
The two values agreed. A sample density calculation is provided in Appendix A. MPR QA Form: QA-3.1-3, Rev. 0

0 The average 28-day and Equation 2 were used to calculate the 28-day elastic modulus for each of the-data sets listed in Table 1. The percent error is calculated between the measured and calculated elastic modulus values. The calculation is provided in Appendix B. 6.0 RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The measured elastic modulus values for the -data sets collected at FSEL align well with the calculated elastic modulus values (from Equation 2). All but II of the measured elastic modulus values are within 80% to 120% of the calculated value. Figure 1 compares the FSEL data to the trendline for Equation 2. Figure 2 and Figure 3 illustrate that nearly all of the FSEL data falls within 80% and 120% of the calculated elastic modulus value, which is consistent with the statement in Section R8.5.1 of ACI 318 (Reference
- 2) regarding the accuracy of the equation.
It is important to note that the measured elastic modulus is plotted and compared to the trendline associated with Equation 2 in Figure 1 and Figure 2. The percent difference between measured elastic modulus and calculated elastic modulus (per Equation 2) is plotted in Figure 3. All three figures support the conclusion that Equation 2 (and therefore Equation 1) applies to the FSEL data. The calculations required to generate Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3 are also provided in Appendix B. Cylinders are depicted in blue. Cores are depicted in green. Based on the results of this calculation, the elastic modulus equation, provided in Section 8.5.l of ACI 318-71, is validated.
