TMI-1/FSAR REPORT ON BBRV PRESTRESSING TENDONS

Part A. GENERAL INTRODUCTION, PURPOSE,

SUMMARY

The 170 wire Inland-Ryerson BBRV Post-Tensi oning System was developed specifically to post-tension the prestressed concrete reactor vessels of nuclear power plants and

their secondary containments where total required force and/or spacing of tendons

makes the use of large capacity tendons advantageous. In general the system utilized

button-headed wires of 0.250-inch diameter anchored by heat treated alloy steel end

fittings. It is the most extensively tested system in the world at the present time. The

tests presented in the following section assure the integrity of the post-tensioning system

in meeting the high quality control standards of the Three Mile Island station and the

Atomic Energy Commission.

It was the purpose of the following tests to demonstrate the ability of the prestressed, post-tensioned system to fulfill the quality control specifications for this job. Part B. of

this section presents a stress analysis of the anchorage components. Part C. deals with

the dynamic and fatigue testing of the composite tendon system.

The static tests reported in Part D. dealt with subjecting anchorages to several levels of

loading and analyzing failure modes. Part E. offers expert opinion

concerning possible deleterious effects of welding and flame cutting on the embedded

steel bearing plates. The low temperature testing as detailed in Part F. shows the

performance characteristics of the loaded tendon system under extreme environmental conditions.

A concensus of the results of these tests, indicates that the individual components of the

system as well as the Inland-Ryerson BBR V Post-Tensioning System as a whole, performed above and beyond the minimum criteria of the job specifications. The results

further indicate that the use of prestressed post-tensioned tendons as a critical structural

member of this vessel was well justified.

TMI-1/FSAR Part B. ECCENTRICITY AND STRESS ANALYSIS

Introduction, Purpose, Summary

It was the purpose of this test to furnish a stress analysis on the anchorage components

to determine "order of magnitude" stresses at applicable maximum loading conditions.

This report takes into consideration the conditions of maximum eccentricity and critical

stress.

The analysis shows that the anchorage will perform as required with all allowable stress

limits.

TMI-1/FSAR Part C. DYNAMIC AND FATIGUE TESTS

Introduction, Purpose, Summary

Based on specification requirements, it was necessary to test the full scale

anchorage in as representative a test as possible. Inland-Ryerson contacted the Swiss

Federal Laboratory for Testing Material and Research. They agreed to conduct the tests

and the materials were forwarded to Switzerland. The results are noted in their tests

67'303/1, 67'303/2 and 67'303/3 following herein.

In the tests a free length of 4 meters was used and the tendon was anchored at both

ends by means of small cold deformed buttonheads at each end and supported on a

threaded ring at both anchor ends. The tendon sy stem was cycled extensively by the test equipment and no significant defects or failures were observed.

In each test the tendon behaved as expected. The results proved the total reliability

of the tendon system beyond the specification requirements.

The applied loads were controlled by means of a"load cell" connecting the weighing beam with the lower anchor head of the tested cable.A shock pickup was mounted on a plate fixed to the upper anchor head of the cable.To the number of the ruptured wires during the test, a recording unit was connected to the mentioned pickup.58-i9.:/r.::..::.. 3.Procedure The cable was acted upon with a pulsating load, whose frequency was 250 cycles per minute, for six days.In spite of the failure of 6 wires during these 2,216.10 6 cycles the upper and lower loads were kept constant.4.Results The data concerning the failure of six wires are given in appendix 4.Due to these failures, the initial applied stress limits were raised from: 0" upper 112,8 kg/mm 2 and 0 101,5 kg/mm 2==Lower up to: 5'" 123,4 kg/nun 2 and 0 111,1 kg/mm 2==upper lower i.e.: at the end of the test, the applied stresses were:°upper=0,726* and 0--0 654*0z.Lower-, The total elongation of the tested cable measured after 2,216.10 6 loading cycles was 3,2 mm.From this elongation 2 mm was a result of the excess stresses due to the failure of the six wires.This means that the elongation of the cable was 1,2 mID.i.e.: The permanent strain after 2,215.10 6 loading cycles was 0,3%0.======Dtibendorf, 17th July,1969 Engineer of test: 58-20 1:3Q::rul Laboratory for Testing Materials and B888Brch A, rzJ1 Appendix l View of the test equipment"/i th the mounted cable and the recording apparatus. 58-21 Coble for tension fatigue test ot the II EMPA II (¢7,87S" I Appendix 2__ (¢':j,t.6"1-In I and_Ryerson I------I IiE*---: a a 0-,-..3-'-.-"--.----,I I I I I I.---1:.----r ,'"--i I!'.....;':N I-t"-I C\i__I r Const" Prods. , Chicagu 58-22 I Zeichnungsnummer:4-34:)9 =-1. ,"';4._,:-_...'-Appendix 3 Experimental arrangement for a fatigue test on a prestressing cable o co Z Q M.1;25--L Cable head .two-port steel rinq¢400mm wittlahole ¢140mm I::"::::', 450*S70*125mm wittlahole¢180mm I I.'*1...........

Anchorage: The cable was anchored at both ends by means of small cold deformed bottom heads at each wire end andted on a threaded ring at both anchor heads.2.Eauipment The tested cable was mounted vertically in a testing frame with a weighing beam (see Figures in appendices 1&3).Lower and upper loading limits of 125 t and 250 t respectively were adrieved by using two hydraulic jacks, which were connected to a spring These loading limits could be kept constant during the test with the aid of the Amsler load and deformation regulating unit"The Hydro-Pacer". Due to the high range of stress applied on the cable, the maximum possible frequency that could be 0,5 cycles per minute.3.Procedure The required loading limits could be accurately adjusted by meuns of a"load cell lt which connected the Weighing Jeam with the loy-er anchor head of the tested cable.The required 50 loading cycles were exceeded and the test was carr:i?d out up to 440 cycles.\j[\::-1../ 58-27 4.Results By visual inspection, after carrying out 440 loading cycles with stress limits of (jlower=0,4* and 6'" upper=0,8* , any defects could not be observed either in the prestressing wires or at the anchor heads (see appendix 4).DUbendorf, 17th July 1969 Engineer of Test: 58-28 Swiss laboratory for T estiny and Research/.\.12iYl Appendix 1 View of the test equipment with the mounted cable, the measuringment and the recording apparatus. 58-29 Appendix 2 Cable for tension fatigue test at the II EMPA II I I¢200 ',-°l----I¢138,7_E: E o (J (J-.I!J"-'-HIIn Ian d Ryerson Canst.Prods Co , ChicagoEMPA I Auftrogs.Nro/Auftro9geber:67 1 3iJ3/1 St"hlton A.-G., ZUrich I Gezeichnet

SUMMARY

CONCLUSIONS 34 56-43 CHAPTER 3.0 END ANCHORAGE 3.1 GENERAL 3.1.1 COMPONENTS The end anchorage hardware of the WCS 2.0 Mep/170 W Post*Tensioning System is made up of the components listed in Table 3.1-1.The terminology"A end" is used to desigrate the end of the tendon which has the Washer installed and wires shop headed during tendon fabrication. The tendon tube at the A end has an enlarged section of sufficient diameter and length to allow the Washer to be recessed approximately 6 feet inside the face of the Bearing Plate, so that the unheaded wires can project approximately 6 feet beyond the Bearing Plate at the opposite end (B end)of the tendon.The"B end" is the end of the tendon (opposite the A end)which allows a Composite Washer (or optionally a Washer and Washer Nut)to be installed on the projecting wires, which are then field headed.I REQUIRED FOR PART&TYPICAL I TYPICAL NAME DRAWING NO.MATERIAL A END R FNn W01her 100103<1140 Heat Treated Yes No*Washer Nut 100104 41 40 Heat T reoled Yes No*Composi te Washer 100105 4140 Heat Treated No Yes*Split Shims 100106 ASTM A7 or A36 Yes Y..Beoring Plate 100107 ASTM A7 or A36 Yes Yes..Art O1.....bly comisting of 0 Washer and Washer Nul can be subllilvled for the Composile Wosher on Ihe 8 End.TAB LE 3.1-1: Tendon end anchorage components of the WCS 2.0 Mep/170 Post-Tensioning System.3.1.2 PERFORMANCE CRITERIA The basic criteria for performance of the end anchorage of an unbonded tendon system for a prestressed concrete reactor vessel (PCRV)or other nuclear containment is that it must reliably: 1)sustain the permanent long term load on the tendon for the life of the structure, 2)sustain any variations in tendon load for the life of the structure, and 3)have sufficientload capacity to allow the full actual ultimate strength and ultimate elongation of the tendon wires to be developed. Expressed more simply, the end anchorage muststronger than the tendon which it anchors, for all types of loading condition. The actual physical and mechanical properties of the tendon wire can be determined by statistical analysis of test data.As discussed in Section 3.3.4, a long30 feet)tendon composed of 170 individual ASTM A421 wires of 0.250 inch diameter can be expected to produce an ultimate load2002.8 kips, and an ultimate elongation3.5%.Due to the mode of failure of a multiple wire tendon, resulting from variation of thevidual wires, the average or the maximum values of eithermate load or ultimate elongation will not greatly exceed the minimums.The ultimate load capacity of the end anchorage components can be determined by ulti:nate load testsducted on prototype components so as to test all criticalure modes.It can be assumed that the ultimate load capacity of production anchorage components will fall within a range of the mean ultimate load capacity of the most critical failure mode (X)plus or minus three standard deviations \a)of test results.Many specifications require that end anchoragenents may not yield at the minimum guaranteed tendon strength.Therefore the basic performance criteria for the end anchorage of the 2.0 Mep/170 W System can be established as: P=(X-3 a)x (F y+F u)2002.6 kips.58-44 Since neither the mean ultimate load capacity (X)nor the standard deviation (a)are known until after prototype tests are completed, it is necessary to establish a preliminary criteria for design purposes.Previous experience indicates thating for a Safety Factor of 1.5 will produce test results meeting the basic criteria.This gives: Component Design Ultimate Strength (Pi)1.5 x 2002.83004.2 kips.Another independent consideration influences the designmate capacity of the end anchorage components. Due to the critical structural application, a proof load test of all critical components to minimum ultimate (2002.8 kips)has been established as an essential part of quality assurancecedures.It follows that all components must be below their yield point at the proof test load in order that the proof test be a non-destructive procedure. For 4140 steel heat treated to RC 40-44 r the tensile yield point is approximately 90%of the tensile ultimate;and as a practical consideration, to reducejections from the proof load testing r the proof test load should not exceed 90%of the minimum yield point at R c 40.It therefore follows that the design ultimate strength (P')of the weakest failure mode for each component should be: P'P1702472.6 kips 0.90 x 0.90-0.81 Taking ali of the above into account, the preliminary criteria for prototype end anchorage component design ultimate strength is 3004.2 kips for the most critical failure mode with the final criteria for performance being: (X-3 a)x (F y+F u)2002.8 kips U:'::'::ATE -*.//82

Each series of tests allows determination of revised rupture factors, so that calculated failure loads become more accurate as more testing experience is gained.The rupture factorsly used herein are taken from WCS Technical Report Number 7,"Behavior of the WCS 520 k/d4 Post-Tensioning System Under Static Loads".,-FACTOR LOAD CONDITION AUTHORITY x Pi.,., Prototype Anchorage Design Ultimat.Section 3.1.2 1.5 I Minimum Guaranteed Strength Section 3.2.1 1.0 2002.8 Appro"ima,.

MI L-HDBK*5 gives data for F bru of AISI 1025 steel for elD=2.0, but this in the average stress at ultimate rather than the peak stress since it is based on a round pin of diameter D in a slightly oversized hole.If we assume a sinusoidal stress distribution F bru (average)=0.636 F bru (peak), or F bru (peak)=1.57 F bru (average)Data for AISI 1025 steel indicates that F bru=(90-:-55)F tu=1.64 F tu.The washer-split shim interface ts a plane surface where it can be assumed that average and peak bearing stresses are the same.F tu for either A7 or A36 steel can be determined approximately from the Rs hardness.Therefore, we can derive an approximate expression for P br as follows: P brF bru x Abr8.79 F tu;where: Abr=(6.00 2.5.625 2)=3.42 sq.in.Fbru1.64 F tu x 1.572.57 F tu F tu is determined by hardness test from Fig.3.2-6.Therefore p'=+P br+8.79 F tu Shear stresses in the threads resulting from an applied load can be determined in much the same manner except that for loads substaintially below ultimate, we must assume a relatively uniform stress over the entire bearing surface as follows: P=f br x Abr (total)=44.18 f br;or f br=:4.18;where: Abr (total)=(9.375 2-5.625 2)44.18 sq.in.P Therefore: P br=fbr x Abr='m8 x 3.42=0.077Since: P=P s+P br=P s+.077 P P s=0.923P=f s x As=f s x 27.92 (Section 3.2.5)f=0.923P=0 P s 27.92.<oJ 3.2.7 WIRE HOLE WEB SHEAR As shown in Fig.3.2-8, shear failure of the web between the wire holes can occur along either of two critical paths.The load applied by the wire heads to the portion of the washer inside the shear plane (P s)is less than the total applied load (P)since part of the load applied by the wires on the shear path is applied to the portion of the washer outside the shear plane.This ratio of load distribution and the number of webs on the shear plane can be determined by inspection of Fig.3.2-8, which gives the following results: WIRES RELATIVE I SHEAR TO SHEAR PLANE TOTAL LOAD RATIO NUMBER OF STRESS RATIO PATH INSIDE

applied load (P)are constants, so that theputed shear stress (f s)varies directly with the stress ratio (R s=Rp/N)as follows: 58-56 AsNx w x t N'.1 X t 13 Ui-'DAT1::-1 7/8:1. 109 x 20.fi5=2240 kips 1.0 58-57 It can thus be seen that the shear stress along shear path 1 will be slightly lower than that along shear path 2, which will be used in following calculations, however, the difference is small and, due to manufacturing variables, web shear failure can be expected to occur along either shear path.PATH 1 IFIG.3.2-8: Alternate shear paths for wire hole web shear failure with Path 1 shown

bearing plate to: f cp=0.6 but< In customary practice, f cp is considered to be a uniform stress and the bearing plate thickness is then set to limit flexural stress in the bearing plate to Fty at minimum guaranteed tendon ultimate.Although this procedure results in satisfactoryformance, it does not represent the actual conditions which exist and has no significance in analizing the mode of failure.While f cp=P/A b gives the average stress on the bearing area, the distribution is not uniform in any case, and is dependent upon the modulus of elasticity, poissons ratio, and creeperties of both the plate and the supporting concrete.Theimum concrete stress is a function of bearing plate deflection. Since the bearing plate flexural stress could not possibly exceed F ty without causing concrete failure, the bearing plate can not fail.The failure mode is thus deter"ined by the supporting concrete, not the plate, and will not be considered in this Section.This subject is covered in WCS Technical Report No.2.58-58 Table 3.2-3 lists all failure modes for each component. For each component, the critical failure mode is that having the lowest Safety Factor (S.F.).The purpose of the prototype testingported in Section 3.3 is to determine actual ultimate load for all critical failure modes.-, ,',-,..-,//0":'15 3.

3.1 DESCRIPTION

OF TEST PROGRAM 3.3 PROTOTYPE TEST The test program was designed to test the ultimate load,mate elongation, and failure mode of 170 wire tendons of lengths up to 30';and to determine the ultimate capacity of the individual anchorage hardware components when loaded in such a manner as to test the critical failure mode of each component. Testing was divided into four categories, Series PL-ultimate load tests of 170 wire tendons and anchorages 4'long;Series A-ultimate load and elongation tests of 170 wire tendons and anchorages 30'Ie;Series B-ultimate shear load of web (honeycomb); and SeriesC-ultimate shear load of 6 inchmeter thread.3.3.2 PROTOTYPE ANCHORAGE HARDWARE Prototype hardware was fabricated in accordance withings per Figs.3.2-1 thru 3.2-5.Prior to testing, components were designated by Rand 0 drawing and part numbers.After testshadvalidated design, final drawing and part numbers were assigned.These are listed in Table 3.3-1 for reference.

Predicted failure loads for the production parts have been established by linearcrease of prototype test results to account for the increased strength due to these changes.All such changes are clearly noted in the analysis of each series of tests.3.3.3 TEST SERIES PL The objective of Series PL tests was to provide preliminary results by loading prototype anchorage hardware to the tendon ultimate in such a way as to limit the release of energy in the event of failure of ar.anchorage hardware component. All anchorage hardware components used for: 1)Series A tests (170 wire x 30 foot long tendon ultimate tests), 21 170 wire structural tendons in the 4.0 Mep bed, and 3)General Atomic ultimate tests of both straight and curved tendons up to 100'long were tested in this series.A secondary objective was to provide additional statistical data in support of the design criteria that the anchorage hardware must be stronger than the minimum guaranteed tendon strength (2002.8 kips).A third objective was to repeatedly test the stressing equipment at a load equal to tendon design ultimate.The test set-up is shown in Fig.3.3-1.End anchorageware consisting of a washer and washer nut (typical A-endl on the right and either a composite washer (typical B-end)or a 1000 TON UJA-Measured Dimen,ion, Load Hiltory Clearance Hordn_Series S.ries Test Series General Pitch Oia.Axial R::;:B Lab.PL A Bed B&C Atomic Tests.015.020 4\.5 390-PL-4 I A-2 50, 6cI.017.025 41.5 390-Pl-3 A-I 5c, Sa.015.020 4\.5 390-Pl-7 60, 8b.014.015 42.0 401-Pl-5 6b, 90.028.018 41.0 388-PL-I I Bed.014.017 4\.5 390-Pl-S 6c, 9b.015.012 41.0 388-Pl-6'10.015.011 42.0 401-Pl-6 Sb.013.014 4\.5 390-PL-2 Bed.015.014 42.0 401 375 C2-7.018.015 41.0 388 303 Cl-IO.020.018 40.5 38.5 375 C2-8.015.012 39.0 370 363 C2-9.014.020 4\.0 388 352 Cl-4.023.018 41.5 390 I-IS IS IS 15 5.0167.0160 4I.n 390 365.6 .00368 0.727 53.6 8.66 23.6 22.2\.76 13.7 2.4.075.076.075.076.alO.072.074.alO.073"1.076.00262 3.4%Thread Depth WASHER RO 730-02;Print: RO 730-340;Final Port and Drawing No.;100103 6-1/2 inch diam.t.r, hot finished.bar stoel<, leaded ana annealed per ,0.151 4142 Comm.rcial Grod.United States Sr**1 Corporation C......PS Si Cr Ma Pb.42.83.OQJ.020.27.92.18.15/.35 Rough machin.and thread on Q engin.loth..Hoi.drill on on drill press using conventional f.eds and speed, and Q"Burgh......r..**floating ind.x table.P..MIL-H-6875B; prot.ctiv. otmosph.re Fur"Oc.for hord.ning and tempering; circulating oil for qu.nching.

The test set-up is shown schematically in Fig.3.3-2 and by photographs which are typical of both A-1 and A-2 tests (Fig.3.3-3 thru 3.3-7).An assembled and banded 170 wire tendon having a prototype composite washer on the east end and a prototype washer on the west end was installed in the test bed from east to west.A prototype washer nut was installed on the west end and the tendon centered ready for test.Two 4" th ick bearing plates are used under the anchorage hardware at both ends in WEST e.ND.'EAST t: lJO 4 MfLLrON POUND 56-62 Ui-'iJATE:-1....,....***0***e.******'."**'".....it 0.:"."..19 STt.It 5',",leI( ..,..-.**-.:.....'Oil rr...""....n.CN I r I I SGWA-': 1M'.-.'%AI!J'1.0' HQI.a WA.MIIil II l....----I'UJ'f./ i!li:l.1t WITW W"SH!1Il NUT, 9 Ya, 0.1'.Hc;t+aNTI" 1'101.1 FIG.3.3-2: Test setup for Series A tests. 56-63 FIG.3.3-3: Series A.170 wire banded tendon installed through center hote of 4.0 Mep test bed.

FIG.3.3-7: Series A.West end during test A-2.Two wires have failed at a force of 2,054k at an elongation of 17.0 inches and can be seen against the deflector plates.At this stage of the test, Phase II elongation is being applied at the opposite (east)end of the tendon.20 capacity load cell, accurate to1%full scale traceable to the National Bureau of Standards, was added bet\'Veen the washer and the split shims at the left end.Although capacity of the load cell was only one-half that of the applied loads, load cell vseither transducer or hydraulic gauge readings showed a linear relationship to 1000 kips and can be extrapolated linearly with sufficient accuracy.Test data for Series A, test A-1 and A-2 are shown in Tables 3.3-8 and 3.3-9 respectively. The relationship of the actual properties of wire used for Series A, tests A-1 and A-2 as compared to the minimum properties required by ASTM: A 421 can be ssen on Fig.3.3-8.The stress-strain curve shown has the same shape as a load-elongation curve and is based on the 10 inch gauge length specified in ASTM: A 421.It can be seen that the wire used has an average yield point 16.9%greater, an average ultimate 3.1%greater, and an average elongation 52.5%greater than correspondingmums specified by ASTM: A 421..06 (250, 5.3"').05 Wi,.T.t-Tendon'1.04 0.25" Of_em WIre,,,,*0.0491 i"." 1 O*Gage L.\gth.03.02 Strain, I"./1"..01 urder to transfer shear forces around the oversize (10")hole in the ,test bed.These bearing plates are not considered to be a part of the assembly being tested.A1 000 ton Stressing Ram having an 8 inch stroke was attached to the west end for Phase I elongation.(Fig.3.3-4).Atimately full 8 ram stroke, shims were stacked under the anchorage hardware to maintain elongation. The jack wastracted, blocked by means of a chair extension load, re-applied, and more shims stacked.This cycle was continued totion of Phase I elongation, shown in Fig.3.3-5 just aftermoval of the Stressing Ram.Tendon elongation during Phase I was designed to be safely below tendon ultimate, but ly great that tendon ultimate force could be obtained within a single 8 inch stroke of the Stressing Ram attached to the east end for Phase II elongation. This was for the safety ofnel and protection of the test equipment. The wire used for Series A tests was tested to determine mean values of actual ultimate strength, yield strength, andtion as shown in Tables 3.3-6 and 3.3-7 for tests A*1 and A*2 respectively. Applied load was recorded at intermediate values of applied elongation. Elongation was measured by means of a steel tape, accurate to 0.01 inches, which measured Stressing Ram piston travel.Loads were measured by both a calibrated hydraulic gauge and by a calibrated hydraulic pressure transducer having a digital read-out.Calibrations were performed with a setup'similar to that shown in Fig.3.3-1 except that a 1000 kip INDIVIDUAL WIRE PROPERTIES FIG.3.3-8: Stress-Strain curve showing mechanical properties for wire used in Series A, tests A-l and A-2, shown superimposed on the theoretical curve for a wire having properties per ASTM: A421 specified minimums.1 Installed 15_1/4" 10'01.hims.Transfe,red load to.hims.R......ved jock and installed on ,ight.Two haur delay AOX illdie:.ta, off ,cole.AOX indicato, off scale.2 wires foiled at heads.2 wir.failed at hMOds.12.00 13.00 14.00 14.50.10 14.40 14.60 14.90 16.00 16.20!:Em Test data for Series A, test A-1.2020 2007 2048 2054 o 1797 1893 1999.500 9580 96.30 9660 8450 8900 9400 9800 9800 9750 2001>1795 1896 2000 TEST A-I DATA Gouge Length: 385 inch", 5t,...ing Rom Effective Ate: 21:<.65 sq.;".Tronlducer

Both nominal and actual efficiencies are shown for both ultimate load capacity and ultimate elongation, using notations defined in Table 3.3-10.These efficiencies are theoretical, for comparison purposes, and cannot be considered an exact measure of performance of a multi-wire tendon for several val id reasons.T!ST RESULTS FIG.3.3-9: Load-Elongation curve of Series A, test A-1 and A*2sults, shown superimposed on the theorectical curve for a tendon having properties per ASTM: A421 specified minimums.First, the mechanical properties of sample wires are determined by tests on a 10 inch gauge length per requirements of ASTM: A 421.There is no valid correlation of performance based on a 10 inch gauge length to performance based on much longer gauge lengths-385 inches in Series A.Second, a multi-wire tendon cannot be assumed to perform as the sum oftheindividual wire performances due to individual differences in the wires.since it is obviously impossible for a multi-wire tendon to be any stronger than the sum of thedividual wires, it follows that it must be weaker, since to be of equal strength would be a coincidence. Therefore, it iscally impossible to have actual efficiency ratios (tR p and tRE)greater than 1.0.It further follows that nominal efficiency I No 3929 384 inches 212.65 Iq.,n.AOX 385I N 200 GP46F S TEST A-2 DATA TABLE 3.3-9: Test data for Series A, test A-2.TrQ,,':.aucer erta a;erlO I TDote I 7 February 1967 Penonnel HReuter, Q.E.Hunter, A.H.Stubbs Lood Elong.ADX Hyd'au r, c Gou ge I\;P')T",,)I, 10\(;nche,)Remark, 298 a 50 Jade on we.1 end.504 065 600 080 Reset elongation scat.at 1.00 inch...702 3660 778 I 15 804 3620 770 I 35 904 4080 868 1.50 1003 4540 965 1.67 1104 4990 1061 185 1201 5430 1155 2.00 1301 5890 1253 2 20 1402 6360 1352 2.37 1503 6820 1450 2.55 1602 7260 1544 2.75 1700 7720 1642 2.97 1796 8190 1742 3.27 1848 3.75 1894 4.1000 0 375 Sel load off on 4" shims.1882 8820 1876 5.10 1900 8860 1884 6.00 1924 9030 1920 7.00 1950 9120 1939 8.00 7.85 Sel load off on 8" shims.Added 8" c....ir 514 800 piece.Down 10 minutes 1947 9130 1941 8.75 1938 9130 1941 9.00 1980 9130 1941 10.00 2002 9390 1997 10.90 1 wire f"iled (in wire)1996 9410 2005 12.00 2010 9470 2014 13.00 1980 9510 2022 13.80 2006 9530 2026 14.00 off.cole 9500 2020 14.25 13.85 Sel lood off on 14".hims.9570 2035 15.00 9610 2043 16.00 9610 2043 16.2500 15.80 Sel load off on 16" shi"..Moved r,,'" 10 9610 2043 16.60 Easl erd.9660 2054 17.00 Second wire f"iled (in wire)9710 I 2065 I m::ill Third cond four'" wir..f"iled (in wire).Test terminated.

MEAI-l VAI.Ue.OP" TENSILE ratios (nR p and nRe)can only be greater than 1.0 if the wire is actua..lly better than specified minimums.As it relates to ultimate tendon elongation, General Atomic has taken this into account by requiring an ultimate elongation of 3.5%for a 30 foot gauge length, thus requiring that nRe0.875.If the mechanical properties are determined for each coil of wire in any given lot of material prior to selection (such as a mill heat), the quantitative values of any property for all coils will follow a normal distribution curve similar to that shown in Fig.3.3-10 for ultimate tensile strength.ASTM: A 421 requires a minimum ultimate tensile strength of 240 ksi (or 11.78 k)for 0.250 inch diameter.Theoretically, all wire shipped could have this minimum tensile strength and no more.In actual practice however, this is impossible.

In order to limit rejects, the steel mills must aim to produce a product higher than themums, as shown by the horizontal position of the vertical line representing mean tensile value (X).Approximately all coils (99.7%)will have a tensile strength within the range of the mean tensile value plus or minus three standard deviations (X+/-3 a), and therefore the variance of the product, asured by a, determines-how much higher the aimed for value (X)must be over the specified minimum in order to limit rejects.To aim for a X which is too high is to risk rejects for other specified properties, e.g.coils having the highest tensile strength may be rejected due to low elongations. As can be seen by reference to Tables 3.3-6 and 7, the variance, as measured by the coefficient of variation (v), is quite small for tensiie strength, but is four to ten times greater fortion.SPE'C/l="feO TE'!'JS\I.E L.. __l"""'"'=_;t_""_3_c:r __J*.U1.rJMATE rE.NSILE.STRE.WGiH FIG.3.3-10: Frequency distribution of ultimate tensile strength for all coils of a mill heat of 0.250 inch diameter ASTM: A4':'1 wire.There is insufficient experimental data available to draw any val id conclusions as to the theoretical true efficiency of thedon, that is the relationship of the tendon actual failure load (or elongation) and the sum of the actual wire properties. Series A would indicate: 1)a relatively high true efficiency for tensile ultimate (tR p=0.992 to 1.020)with a small variance, and 2)a somewhat lower true efficiency for ultimate elongation (tRe=0.627 to 0.863)with a large variance.Should th is hold true in all cases, then it could be expected that a 30 foot long test tendon fabricated from 170 wires having exactly minimum properties (that is, 11.78 k UST and 4%elongation) could fail at 1986.7 k and 2.5%elongation, but the confidence in the accuracy of this expectation would be quite low.From the above discussion, it is reasonable to conclude 30 foot long test tendons should exhibit efficiency ratios of nR p1.0 for tensile and nRe0.875 for elongation. It must be expected however that test tendons fabricated from wire havingmum properties would fall below these efficiency ratios.This should be of no concern as the strength of all tendons, both test tendons and those used in the structure, will exhibit the same frequency distribution as the wire itself.Series A tests show that the two tendons tested exceedfication requirements for both ultimate load and elongation. They also contribute significant information on the behavior of long multi-wire tendons loaded to ultimate, from which more exact criteria and code requirements can eventually be derived.3.3.5 TEST SERIES BANDC-GENERAL In general, Series B tests were conducted to determine web (honeycomb) shear ultimate both with split shims (Series B 1)and without split shims (Series B2);and Series C tests were conducted to determine shear ultimate load for the 6 inch diameter thread, which couples the Washer to the Washer Nut, both with split shims (Series C1)and without split shims (Series C2).Specific details which apply to each of the four series (Bl, B2, C1 and C2), including discussion, objective, test procedure, test results and analysis, are presented separately for each series in succeeding sections.In relation to the anchorage hardware components orblies, the term"outer face" is used to describe the surface on which the wire heads bear, that is, the face on which the load is applied;and the term"inner face" is used to describe the opposite surface, that is, the face which has a reactive force in the opposite direction to the applied load.The interior well of the 4 million pound capacity test bed was used to apply the test load as shown schematically in Fig.3.3-11 and by photos in Fig.3.3-12 a)thru c).Three-1000 ton stressing rams were attached to the inside east end of the test bed and were hydraulically interconnected to a stressing power unit located on top of the bed.Ram force wasted thru a movable load block to the component being tested.Load reaction was provided by a fixed spacer block reacting against the inside west end of the bed.Redundant determination of the applied test load is provided by means of: 1)a Martin-Decker, 12" dial, 0-10,000 psig hydraulic gauge measuring to 20 psig subdivisions the oilsure being applied equally (in parallel)to three identical rams 58-66 23 and 2)by a Transducers Inc.Model GP-46F-10,000-7103draulictransducerattached to one ram and reading to 50 pound subdivisions on a Transducers Inc.Model ADX-38matic Digital Indicator. Both the gauge and ADX-38 were mounted on the hydraulic control-power unit installed on top of the test bed.Both the hydraulic gauge and the indicator were calibrated to the capacitY of a 1000 ton load cell.but no load cell even close to this capacity was available.ever, failure load as determined by the mean of gaugemined load and transducer-indicator determined load issidered to be accurate to at least 1.0 k+/-since: a)all rams are identical, b)all rams are connected in parallel by equal length lines to the hydraulic pump, c)calibrations showed a linear relationship, and d)there is close correlation between gauge and transducer-indicator calibrations. Applied test load as measured by the gauge is determined by multiplying the gauge reading (corrected to the calibration curve)by the total effective area of the three rams (AR=3x 212.65=637.95 sq.in.).Applied test load as measured by the transducer-indicator is determined by multiplying the indicator reading (corrected to the calibration curve)by three.tion by means of an eight million pound capacity load cell installed in lieu of the test assembly would be more accurateIn order to determine the degree of uniformity throughout the section of the heat-treated components, CompositeSerial No.002 was sectioned after being tested to web shear failure (Series B 1, Test 1)and Rockwell C scale hardness was measured at approximately 100 points across one face.The center section of a Composite Washer was chosen as being the most critical for uniform heat treat results due to this compo-..'.;..

From the calculations (Section 3.2.7)and analysis, there is no reason to assume any difference in ultimate strength of the web shear failure mode for assemblies either with or without split shims.The principal reasons for testing three assemblies With.split shims in Series 81 were to: 1)verify the above assumption by comparison with results of tests conducted without split shims (Series 82), 2)establish a minimum ultimate strength for the bearing failure mode at the Split Shim-Composite Washer interface as analized in Section 3.2.3, and 3)assist in analysis of the effect of bearing on the ultimate strength of the 6" thread tested with split shims (Series Cl I.The test fixture for Series 81 tests is shown schematically in Fig.3.3-14.The double bearing plates are used to transfer shear around the oversize (10 inch diameter)hole in the spacer FIG.3.3-14: Fixture for Series B1 testS.Components being tested are shown shaded.Mandrel conforms to shape illustrated in Fig.3.3-11 for Path 1 shear failure mode.block and are not considered as part of the components being tested except for the Bearing Plate-Split Shim Interface (ref.Section 3.2.2), which is an accurate duplication of actualditions.After application of an approximate 400 kip preload to seat all parts of the loading train, the load is reduced to 1.0 kips and any gap existing between the mandrel and Washer is measured and recorded as an indication of degree of ity of applied load application. Test results for the three tests of Series 81 are shown in Figs.3.3-15 thru 17, and are summarized and analyzed in Table 3.3-12 which shows the method of calculating values indicated. The low coefficient of variation (v)for actual test results (P")indicated consistency in both components and test procedures. The small error,-2.93%average, indicates that predicted loads are quite accurate but conservative since actual test loads (P")are higher in all cases.This is probably due to the fact that predicted loads are based on nominal steel shear area=22.61 sq.in.)while the actual area may be slightly higher.This is probably why the Rupture Factor (average k r=0.971)is less than 1.0.Such a small variance between predicted and actual values does not indicate any change in k r=1.0 for use in identical calculations of similar mechanisms designed in the future.I<0.=.0....T......,.....Acrual Error Revised I Min.Equiv.Safety I T",t UTS (P;l I UTS (P;l UTS (P")Note rJ1 k.Tendon UTS Factor I O",ig.(['(kips)f2\(kips)(kips)(%)Note 4 1'S'(kips)Note t6"!81-1 I 2509.7 2509.7 I 2613-4.0 0.960 3095.2 1.55 1 81-2 I 2577.5 2577.5 2682-3.9 0.961 3093.3 1.54 81-3 2564.0 2564.0 2586-0.9 0.991 2998.4 1.50 I I" I 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 I X I 2550.4 2550.4 2627*2.93 0.971 i.53 a I 29.30 2 9.30 40.42 1.404.014 45.19.022 1.15 1.15 1.54 49.0 1.48 1.48 141 X:2638.3 2638.3 2748.3+1.39 1.014 3197.9 1.59 X*3 i 2462.5 2462.5 2505.7-7.25 0.9'28 29'26.7 1.47 Notes, ,.Caku lated UTS (P;)c y A;without"se of Rupru..Fac_(k,), ,u 2.P,edicted UTS (P;): Polk,;P;: (F", x A,)/k,;k.: 1.0 3.Error: (P,-P")x 100"'" p" 4.Ilevised Ilupru,e Foetor: k,: Po/P" 5.Mini"""", Equivalent Tendon UTS: p" corrected to",'nimum F,u P, (",in.)=(P"/R.)x (Min.F,u@R e 401 F tu of$peci",,,") For failure olong shear Path 1, R." 0.829 Fo'the specified"'ini_R e: 40, F,u=109 k.i 6.Safety Factor, SF: P: (",in.VP"l"l " p, (",in.V 2002.8 TABLE 3.3-12: Summary Analysis of Series B1 Test Results 58-69 26/ ULTIMATE LOA..rESTS-PROTOTYPE ANCHORAGl: _OMPONENTS ULTIMATe LOAU ,ESTS-PROTOTYPE ANCHORAGE...OMPONENTS 114.HARDNESS SCALE READING Dcl SERIAl.NUMBER TEST.--Z----TEST DATE/1Vf.-., 1..7 COMPONENT NAME__Composi te Hasher..Split-ShiJlll ...__...__*..SERIES aI-2.DESCRIPTION Web Shear-W, rll S''''S ICOMPONENT DATA UTS I'f'SCALE READING\klij"__.SERIAL NUMBER TEST_,;,,' TEST DATE I Wf,...,.(.7 SplitShi...CO"'PO'it.

The final acceptance criteria established in Section 3.1.2 says that the proof test load equal to minimum guaranteed tendon UTS must be 90%of the yield point of the weakest failure mode predicted from statistical analysis of test results.There is no well defined shear yield point and, in fact.shear yield and shear ultimate probably conicide, so we may conservatively assume F SY=.9 F su.Therefore, final acceptance criteria may be expressed as: 0.9 (X, 30)xPPT=P'170=2002.8 kips F su-3::;" 2002.8::;" 24726 k'X-a?0.90 x 0.90?*IpS The revised Pi-(min.)of 2815.0 is 1.14 times greater than the 2472.6 kips required for acceptance of test results, indicating that the web shear failure with split shims exceeds requirements. This series also shows that the bearing at the Split ShimBearing Plate Interface and at the Split Shim-Composite Washer Interface are not critical failure modes as both sustained loads as high as 2682 kips without failure.Figs.3.3-18 and 19 are photos of the outer and inner faces respectively of both Composite Washer and Split Shims after being loaded to failure in test B 1-3.They are typical for all tests of Series B 1.FIG.3.3-19: Innerface of Composite Washer and Split Shims of test 81*2 after being loaded to ultimate.Note that shear failure is along both Paths 1 and 2.28 ULTIMATE LOAD TESTS-PROTOTYPE ANCHOI:AGE COMPONENTS FIG.3.3-21: Test 82-1 Data DESCRIPTION Web Sh_-Iv'/T"..v r.<;""h Nt S liS.*UTS'T'(lui) READING HARDNESS Z...41..., SERIAL NUMBER TEST.-;:6;;... reST DATE 1 MAY (,,7 C_DOti te Washe, COMPONENT NM'i..SERIES 8'1..-'!.COMPONENT DATA ULTIMATE LOAD TESTS-PROTOTYPE ANCHOIlAGE COMPONENTS [SEIUES 8 to-I TEST S reST DATE/MAyr..1!DESCRIPTION Web Shear-k,;lITJ-ldvr jCOMPONENT DATA I-.._.SERIAL HARDNESS UTS'T'COMPONENT NAME NUMBER SCAlf READING (leai)_.Compo.it.Wash., atl#f 12, 41.." 1174---_..(!)F_Fill.3.2-0-_._--__0_______*___.PIlfDICTED FAILUIlf LOAD._----_.-___._-.___..-..----F,u X Ai..

The purpose of the two tests in Series 82 was primarily tovide additional test data on web shear strength and secondarily to determine if the presence of split shims has a significant effect on web shear failure.The test setup is shown schematically in Fig.3.3-20.Test procedures were comparable to those used in Series 81.Data for each test is shown in Figs.3.3-21 and 22 and is summarized and analized in Table 3.3-13.Preload.Gap*iI.,"1;n.Aclv I 4**1.1"",'I.**S1S'..__. -_.F,.'"frorrt Table J.2-2.. _.I PATH 1 PA.TH 2--_.E'6'l 2O:'S5.-0.829 0'.782 Ie.*1.01.0 In tei.d ed 1187 1'/86 ,....iD Hydroulic T.t Gauge and HyoIroulicplue ADX Digital""'t giw_.-t of rite_'--.I..oaI'-T.t Gauge inll II 0.631I..oaI'-.ADX-3I 1"11 X 3, I.)74.(!):r:.-Fig.3.2-6 __..*.__*PIlfDICTED fAILURE LOAD 1';*F***A;k**--..2't.'-1 P'..equi""lent tendon load.*!:i... kips I p.....8-:----iTEST PROCEDURE I Preload to opPrO"imately 400 kips;Retum to zero, I Meaaure gap belW_COlIlflO"Mti and punch;mecti...RantArea(A.)*3 )(212.65*631.95tq.ln.

The value for P T (min.)is derived from correcting the valuesand Pt,r to minimum values of F u allowed by qualityance procedures. Thus, corrected=xF su (actual)/F su (min.), and correct Pt,r=corrected C br x F tu (min.)for shim material xIn accordance with this procedure, P;'(min.)for each test of SeriesC1 becomes: P;'(min)=[2913.7xF su (actual)/109j +[C br x F tu (min.)x 3.42]As an example, for test C1*1 PT(min.)=(2913.7 x 109/113)+(2.12 x 58 x 3.42)=3231.1 kips We then arrive at P T (min.)for the system at X-3 a or 3116.0 kips which is 1.26 times the minimum value of 2472.6 per basic acceptance criteria.Numerical values derived above cannot be considered accurate as they are based on assumptions of ques*tionable quantitiative accuracy.This is of no concern as the 6 inch thread with shims is not the critical failure mode in any event.Photos of the components after being tested to failure are shown in Fig's.3.3-32 and 33.Due to the relative magnitudes of the ultimate thread shear forceand the ultimate bearing load on the split shims (Pt,r), it can be assumed that the shim bearing failure which is clearly shown in Fig.3.3-32 did not occur until after thread shear failure.-..-.---"r--FIG.3.3-33: Inner face of components shown in Fig.3.3-32 Note that inner face of Washer*Washer Nut assembly bears on outer face of Split Shims.S8-76 33.'.. 0-'\/" 0":':' 3.3.10 ANALYSIS OF FAILURE MODE FROM TESTS A summary of failure loads for each mode of failure, based on Series Band C test results, is contained in Table 3.3-16.Failure load of the split shims at either the Bearing Plate or the more critical Composite Washer interface was not determined, but it must be in excess of the 3561 kip maximum load applied during the ten tests and must be due to bearing failure which is not a critical mode.Wire hole web shear is shown to be slightly more critical than shear at the 6 inch diameter threads.Failure loads shown in Table 3.3-16 for both Wire Hole Web Shear and 6" Threads (with shims)are mean\/alues.As compared with the 6 inch threads of the same form, the 9-3/8 inch threads are subjected to a temporary load only, are unloaded in the structural condition, are subject to a maximum load which is 20%less and have a nominal area which is 57%greater.This thread is obviously not critical and was not tested.To provide uniformity in dimensions (to facilitate inspection, shipping, field procedures etc.)it was decided to increase the thickness of both the Composite Washer and the Washer from 3*3/4 inches to 4 inches matching the required thickness of the Washer Nut.This increased thickness will provide additional strength for both the Wire Hole Web Shear and the 6 inch Thread Shear failure modes of production components. The increased strength, computed by linear increase of prototype component test results is shown in Fig.3.3-16.The increased load capacity is not required for conformance to design or acceptance criteria and will not substantially increase theure load for other (non-critical) modes of failure.It should be noted that, by the time all test Series werepleted, several specific components had been loaded several times to loads greater than the minimum guaranteed ultimate tendon strength of 2002.8 kips.As part of the overall test program, loads2002.8 kips were applied five times to Washer-Serial No.002, seven times to Washer Nut-Serial No.004, nine times to Composite Washer-Serial No.007, and several times to other components. While this number of cycles cannot be considered a fatigue test, the applied load is considerably higher than will ever be applied in the structure, and the number 58-77 34 of times which many components withstood actual tendonmate, without failure, gives increased confidence in the basic criteria that the end anchorage be stronger than the tendon wh ich it anchors.3.3.11

SUMMARY

CONCLUSIONS The average error of predicted ultimate loads was-0.61%, varying from-4.0 to+4.5 maximum error;therefore, it may be concluded that the design methods used are quite accurate and gi'Je predictable results.The coefficient of variation of test results is small, having a mean value of 1.974%and varying between a low of 0.45%to a high of 2.98%, indicating that the combined effect oftype production variables and testing variables is insignificant, therefore it may be concluded that both production methods and test procedures were satisfactory. All test results were over acceptance minimums based onservative basic critera;therefore it may be concluded that the end anchorage hardware as designed and tested will not be the weakest link in the tendon system.Foilu,e"""""e a"ori"9 Plate-Split Shim Interface>3561 Split Shim-Compotite Washer Interface>3561 Wire Hole Web Shear 3062 6" Threads (with shims)3289 3542 TABLE 3.3-16: Summary of failure mode, type of failure and failure load for both prototype and production end anchorage hardware, based on Series Band C tests.Summary is for an anchorage consisting of a bearing plate, split shims, and a composite washer (or a washer-washer nut assembly l.

ABSTRACT Prestressing tendons with a minimUm guaranteed ultimate tensile strength (GUTS)of 1000 tons have been sucessfully developed for use on the first prestressed concrete reactor vessel (PCRV)being constructed in the U.S.Measured values for modulus of elasticity, yield and ultimate strength, friction, and short-term relaxation, for both straight and curved tendons, are presented. Short-term relaxation tests on long tendons made with stress-relieved Wll'e show significantly higher relaxation losses than tendons made with low-relaxation Wire.A cyclic test on a large curved tendon had no effect on the ultimate capacity of the system.A tendon corrosion-protection system, and various corrosion-and radiation-test results obtained to est.ablish the adequacy of the system, are presented.

This PCRV will contain the entire primary system for a 330"MW(e)high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR)near Platteville, Colorado, under the AEC power-reactor demonstration program.A single tendon, with an ultimate capacity of 1000 tons ("tons" refers to short tons in this report)was judged to produce the lowest capital cost in-place prestressing system.Lower-capacity tendons of similar design were also judged to apresented at the February.3-7, 1969, ASCE Conference at New Orleans, La.1 Mgr.Struct.Engrg.Br., Gulf General Atomic Incorporated, San Diego, Calif.2Struct.Engrg., Gulf General Atomic Incorporated, San Diego, Calif.3 Sta ff Metallurgical Engr., Gulf General Atomic Incorporated, SanDiego,Calif.

This system.manufactured by Western Concrete, is similar to the BBR V system used on the Dungeness B vessel (Table 1).A schematic view of the 1000-ton tendon anchor assembly as it will appear on the PCR V is shown in Fig.1.The covers shown protect the tendon from corrosion and mechanical damage.The system 1S partially shop-fabricated from straight wires with one end-anchor assembly attached.Each tendon consists of two concentric bundles of counter-twisting wire.The counter-twisting effect prevents the wrres from unravelling and minimizes the variation of wire lengths in a curved tendon.All wires of the tendon are coated, bound, and coiled for shipment to the site.A coiled test tendon is shown in Fig.2.The partially fabricated tendons are pulled through tendon tubes embedded m the PCR V and each wire is then threaded through the second anchor assembly and buttonheaded. Prestressing is accomplished with high-capacity jacks from both ends on curved tendons and from one end on straight tendons.The high-capacity jacks developed for the lOOO-ton tendons are shown in Fig.3.3 Page 5B-87 BEARING PLATE 20-1/2 x 3-3/4 X 20*1/2 IN.\)CONCRETE j/(/ANCHOR --J-l 16 IN.OIAM ANCHOR ASSEMBLY COVER LC69383 FIG.1.-TENDON END-ANCHOR ASSEMBLY ARRANGEMENT 4 Page 5B-88 Ur'lX41 C-1 -..135-77-1 FIG.2.-PARTIALLY FABRICATED COILED TENDON Page 5B-89 5-,-:',-..l/I::;;' FlG.3.-1000-TON TENDON PRESTRESSlNG JACK 6*Page 5B-90 l...::**'l)A!t:-1 I,','r...::'l 1--RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT SCOPE The prestressing system was tested by GGA to determine: (1)modulus of elasticity, (2)friction, (3)yield strength, (4)ultimate strength, (5)cyclic load effect, (6)short-term relaxation, and (7)corrosion protection. TEST FACILITY The facility for testing full-size tendons in their expected environment and load conditions is shown in Fig.4.The test bed consists of a 90-ft-long straight test section and variable curved test sections with maximum radius of 16 ft and minimum radius of 10ft.These dimensions provide the full range of vertical tendon lengths and horizontal curves required by the Fort St.Vrain vessel.The straight part of the test bed contains five tubes.The center tube (No.5)is 7 in.OD throughout its 90-ft length.The outer four tubes (Nos.1 through 4)are 4-1/2 in.OD with temperature regulation for relaxation tests at temperatures from ambient up to 150 F.The semicircular portion of the test bed permits testing a variety of curved tendons.Each curved tendon-tube can be removed and replaced as required.This feature enables several friction-reducing or corrosion-protection materials to be investigated, starting with clean tubes for each test phase.Provisions for measuring the tendon tangential shear force and radial force at several points around the 180 0 curves are also provided.The two smaller curved (No.9 with 10-ft radius and No.8 with 16-£t radius)tendons are truly semicircular. These short tendons simulate the range of curvature of the crosshead tendons of the Fort St.Vrain vessel.The longer curved tubes (Nos.6 and 7)are a series of flat-curved sections with the radius of the curved sections being 16 ft maximum.These tendons simulate the circumferential wall tendons of the Fort St.Vrain vessel.All tubes are ASTM A-513, Grade 1010 HREW, having splice details as shown typically in Fig.5.Page SB-91 7 U;--'!';;;il \::-1?/S:.:: CURVED TENDONS SIMULATE CURVATURES OF" CROSS-HEAD TENDONS ON PSC PCRV STRAIGHT TENDON SIMULATES VERTICAL TENDONS ON PSC PCRV TYPI CAL TENDON TUBE NUMBER 1 LOAD CElL 3 LC69382 HYDRAULIC HEATING LINES FIG.4.-PRESTRESSING SYSTEM RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT TEST BED 8 Page SB-92 r-3 IN'----I .....----------....._-------..

The initial individual wire failures have an insigificant effect on the ultimate capacity of the tendon.The yield strength of the tendon system at 1%elongation meets the requirement of not being less than 75%of the minimum ultimate strength.An ultimate strain at failure of greater than 4%provides considerable reserve above the 1 to 1.5%predicted maximum capability required by peR v designers. 10 Page 5B-94 ,,.....::,/" r o'::'-::--: K53837 FIG.6.-PRESTRESSING SYSTEM TEST-BED FACILITY 11 Page 5B-95 ELONGAT ION (%)0 2 3 4 5 NO.OF FAILED WIRES MAX LOAD=2048 KIPS 2200 AT 4.35%ELONG 2000 250,000I 1800 2,3-200,000 V')1600 STRENGTH AT 4 0..d I 1%ELONG a 1780 KIPS-1400 5 V')I 0..0 1200?6,7,8 150,000<t==28.3 X 10 6 PSI V')0 V E V')..J 1000a: 800 100,000 t-V')600?400 P STRAIGHT TENDON-168 0.25-IN.WIRES 50,000 200 GAGE LENGTH-99 FT 0 IN.0 0°10 20 30 40 SO 60 ELONGATION (IN.)LC71374 FIG.7.-TENOON STRESS-STRAIN CURVE 12 Page 5B-96 ""dOQ CD VI tJ:l I\0'-J c: "1"[:;,:1':-n-......0: f<......w))TilLE 2.-5UHHAll.Y OF PRESTRESSING TENDON HECHANlCAL TESTS Length INUlIIber of Wire%Elongation MaximUlll of E, HodullUl of Te.t Tendon Lubricant at Maximum Load, Wire.Elasticity.

The ultimate load of a tendon test specimen is reached only m the straight portion between the anchors for a straight tendon and in the first point of tangency for a curved tendon.Beyond the tangent point, friction reduces the tendon load.Therefore, the measured total elongation IS mainly influenced by the length of the straight portion.A meaningful test result interpretation is required to relate the measured ultimate load to the strain in the wires at the failure point.Since the wire failures always occur close to the tangent point within the curved part, it is valid to equate the measured failure load to the tendon load at the point of failure.The percent elongation at maximum curved tendon load is determined by averaging the percent elongations of the straight tendons (SA, SB, and SC)at the corresponding maximum curved tendon load.The percent elongation at maximum curved-tendon load is about one-half to two-thirds of that exhibited by straight tendons.The stress in each wire of a curved tendon depends upon the actual length of each wire.If the tendon wires are parallel, the inner wires of a curved tendon will project approximately 6 in.further than the outer wires at each anchor.To compensate for this, all curved test tendons were fabricated as follows: the ,center 80 wires were gradually twisted 10 turns clockwise while being greased and combed into position, the remaining outer\vires were then greased and combed into position, and finally the whole tendon was twisted four turns counterclockwise. This operation reduced the variation in wire projections at anchors to+/-3/4 in.Test tendon 6B (Table 2)was specially treated in an effort to further study wire-length variations. In this case, the wires were cut parallel to thebearingplate after insertion to remove the+/-3/4-in.variation. This operation, 1:...l}r*'l)At:-1// however, actually increased the Wire variation In total length and resulted in a lower*ultimate strain and strength for this tendon.As the result of these tests, the Fort St.Vrain counter-twisted tendon wires projecting through the stressing washer will be buttonheaded without field-cutting the wires.CYCLIC-LOAD EFFECf Tendon 9C was tested by cyclic loading 1000 times between a load range of 1275 kips and 1525 kips (i.e., 0.7 GUTS+/-15,000 psi)prior to the ultimate load test.The cycles and stress range are at least double those expected to occur in a PCRV.The jacks shown in Fig.3 were used to apply the cyclic load and thus also provide experience on jack reliability. FRICfION Coefficient-of. friction values were determined for all full-sized curved tendons after a series of tests were performed on small, 7-wire tendons.In this series of tests, the friction-reducing characteristics of various materials were considered along with their ability to provide corrosion protection for the wire.A petroleum-base compound containing microcrystalline wax, No-Ox-Id-CM, was selected for use on all of the full-size tendon tests.Friction values were determined by recording the load at one end of the tendon while jacking at the other.Friction coefficients were computed using an average wobble effect of K=0.00027.Typical friction coefficients determined during tensioning and detensioning are shown in Fig.8.The lower value obtained during tensioning is attributed to the fact that the tendon wires slid more freely during tensioning than detensioning because sHang friction is less than static friction.(Friction at tensioning resembles sliding friction and friction at detensioning resembles static friction.) A factor of 0.15 during tensioning is believed to be an adequate design value, but a value of 0.19 was used for the Fort St.Vrain design to allow for construction variables. 16 Page 5B-IOO i J.L-1000 r aaa a 7 I MIN I J.L=IMAX U" 800 a.I J.LaCl 600 f-z I UJ i Cl I<t I UJ 400 ,-Cl I-<t Cl<t 200 a...J 0 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 1400 1600 LOAD AT JACKING END (KIPS)LC71373 FIG.S.-TYPICAL COEFFICIENT-OF-FRICTION CURVES Page 5B-IOl 17---------------,--,- Coefficient-of-friction values determined along the curved tendons are shown in Table 4.Tube Nos.8 and 9 are completely circular and little variation in friction value occurs.Tube No.6 is made up of straight and curved sections with high values of friction occurring in the curved portions (60 0 and 150°).The average friction values determined by load cells are consistently higher than those determined along the curved segment.The addition of paraffin or No-Ox-Id-500 to No-Ox-Id-CM for lubricating tendons 6C and 9C did not reduce friction below values obtained using No-Ox-Id-CM alone.RELAXATION Relaxation tests require considerable time to accomplish if a basis for 30-yr predictions is expected to be established. Many relaxation tests on prestressing steel have been performed by others, extrapolating the lcng-term relaxation loss from a minimum of 1000-hr (approximately 42-day)test data.Relaxation tests on the test bed have ranged from 1000 hr to approximately 1 yr.The test results to date en Thermalized wire tendons indicated only a slight rate of change of relaxation loss between the period of 1000 hr and less than 1 yr.Relaxation loss was obtained as a percentage of initial prestress at anchor.Tendon loads were measured with spool-type load cells calibrated to+/-0.5%accuracy at rated load.Applied tendon loads and number of wires per tendon are shown in Table 2.Temperature of each tendon is maintained within+/-5 F of the stated values.Temperature-change adjustment was included in the test data.A comparison of load loss vs log time is shown in Fig.9 for straight tendons made up of stress-relieved and Thermalized wires.Only ambient-temperature tests were performed on stress-relieved wire units initiCllly stressed to 0.7 GUTS, and the results shown in Fig.9 as (68 F)S are the average of four 25-wire tendons.Retensioning after various periods of time reduced the relaxation of stress-relieved wire tendons to about one-third to two-thirds of its initial value as shown in 18 Page 5B-102 TABLE 4.-COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION MEASURED ALONG THE CURVED TENDONS AT VARIOUS DEGREES OF TURN Lubricant No-Ox-Id-CM plus paraffin No-ox-Id-CM Degree of turn Tube 6 Tube 8 Tube 9 10 0.142 a 0.146 a 30 0.109 a 50 0.126 a 60 0.176 a 90 0.133 a 120 0.107 a 130 0.127 a 150 0.147 a 170 0.132 a 0.12S a Mean 0.135 0.136 0.131 1 Std deviation+/-0.029+/-0.005+/-0.008 Avg values by load cells at anchors 0.150 0.140 0.150 acoefficients of friction are derived&om normal load and shear load measured along the curved tendons at various degrees of tum.Page 5B-I03*19c-1 l/81. 10,000 120 68 68 TEMP (F)1000 100III I 10 III I I 1 (68 F)S I(1 20_----I__--II...---\,.".-0, III ,\LEGEND NO.OF INITIAL LOAD WIRE MAT'L WIRES%GUTS (NOMINAL)THERMALIZED 25 70 o THERMAL I ZED 25 70*STRESS RELIEVED 25 70V')100 V')0-J Q 10<<t-o-J0.10 t 0.01 0.1 LOGTI ME (HRS)LCi1372 FIG.9.-TENDON RELAXATION TEST DATA Page SB-I04 20-..:1 4}**,1 ,.f' --Table 2.The test duration reported is related to the period following each tensioning operation.

CORROSION PROTECfION The development of a satisfactory corrosion-protection system requires a broad knowledge of all the steps in the preparation and use of a prestressing system.This is essential since continuous corrosion protection must be provided on all tendon components from the point of manufacture to final installation. The total corrosion-protection system for the Fort St.Vrain prestressing tendons consists of the following: 1.The tendon wrre is coated with a zinc-phosphate (Meta Bond), which is then sealed with an oil film of Rustarest, both ot which are applied just after the Thermalizing process.2.The WIre coils, spiral-wrapped in VPI Hessian burlap paper, are shipped from England to point of fabrication in unsealed steel containers. 3.No-Ox-Id-CM is applied to the individual wires and anchor hardware during tendon fabrication. 4.Fabricated tendons are banded and placed in protective tendon racks for shipment and site storage.5.No-Ox-Id-CM is applied to the interior of the tendon tubes prior to tendon installation. 6.After tendun installation, the ends of each anchor assembly are covered with caps until the stressing operation is performed. These caps are 21 Page 5B-I05 removed for tendon stressing and t hen reinstalled after the anchor assembly is thoroughly coated with No-Ox-Id-CM. The tendon tube and end caps form a protective chamber for the prestressing tendons.The selection of this corrosion-protection system 1S based on the test program summarized in Table 3.The most significant results show that: 1.The strength loss and elongation loss on bare wire from corrosion was insignificant in wire after 1 yr of continuous coastal exposure.The wire samples exhibited fine scaling corrosion. 2.The zinc-phosphate coating (Meta Bond)produced no hydrogen embrittlement even at stress levels of 75%of the notched wire ultimate strength.Neither the coating nor cathodic charging caused failure of stressed wire.3.No-Ox-Id-CM is self-healing and does not uncover the wrre at 120 F, the maximum temperature expected to be experienced by PCR V tendons.4.Irradiation to levels recorded does not cause delayed failure of stressed and coated wire.5.Scress-corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement have not caused failure of these wires, which have a pearlitic microstructure. Corrosion tests on full-size stressed tendons in the test bed (Fig.6)were performed to verify the adequacy of the protectants selected on the basis of the specimen tests summarized in Table 3.These tests are continuing and no signs of corrosive attack have appeared.22 Page 5B-I06//::3J. -CONCLUSIONS It is apparent from the test results that counter-tWIstIng of tendon wires is essential for large-capacity curved tendons.The counter-twisting effect prevents multiple tendon wires from unravelling after tendon fabrication and during tendon installation, and minimizes the total wire length variation. It is important that the wire bundle not be cut parallel to the bearing plate after curved tendon insertion. If the wire bundle is cut,a3 to 4%reduction of the tendon ultimate load capacity can be expected for tendon configurations described in this report.As expected from the curved tendon ultimate load tests, most of the WIre failures occurred in the curved segment close to the first point of tangency on the curve.This is the region where the simultaneous action of high-tensile, bending, and transverse stresses.localize as a result of the effects of friction and sudden change in curvature in the tendon profile.Thermalized wires used in this test program meet all the mechanical properties of ASTM A-421 wire.Thermalized wire is characterized by its low relaxation property.The relaxation loss for Thermalized wire tendon was only approximately 7%of the relaxation loss that was measured for the stress-relieved wire tendons tested under similar test conditions at 68 F after 1000 hr and after initial anchor load of 70%GUTS.The casing-filler material No-Ox-Id-CM provided dual functions in this test program.It was used for a friction-reducing agent and for corrosion protection of the tendon system.The No-Ox-Id-CM material is self-healing and does not uncover the wire at 120 F, which is the maximum temperature expected to be experienced by PCRV tendons.The self-healing effect of No-Ox-Id-CM permits tendons to be protected'hi.thout resorting to completely filling the tendon tubes with protectant.

The 1000-ton prestressing system developed for the Fort St.Vrain PCR V has been subjected to service loads and environmental conditions far in excess of those required to satisfy design require*ments. Mechanical properties required by the design have been established by testing full-size tendons in configurations simulating those of the actual vessel.Tendon-relaxation values have been shown to be small for Therm:llized wire, and a complete corrosion-protection system has been developed to ensure tendon stability throughout the design life of a PCR V.ACKNOWLEDGMENT This work was supported by the U.S.Atomic Energy Commission under Contract AT(04-3)-633. 24 Page 5B-I08 Part E.Section 5B TRUMPLATE WELDING EFFECTS Page 5B-109...'-*:':'S\::.--/,/ Part E.TRUMPLATE WELDING EFFECTS Table of Contents Page#1.0 Introduction, Purpose, Summary Letter Report of J.Hildebrand SB-lll SB-112 Section 5B Page SB-IIO;;,/'O..!..

John F.Hildebrand 6124 Terryhill Drive La California 92037 27 October 1969 Inland-Ryerson Construction Products Co.Box 5532 Chicago, Illinois 60680 Attention: Mr.Wi II iam A.Corson Re: Bearing Plate Serviceability Gentlemen: Following recent discussions with Western Concrete Structures, I felt it was necessary to prepare a brief statement clarifying our position relative to the metallurgicalability of the bearing plates for the Three Mi Ie Island containment. Flame cutting the bearing plate and attaching the trumpet by welding are not expected to detrimentally affect the functionality of the prestressing system at normal environmental temperatures. A test program is in the final stages of preparation at this time to assess the effects of these fabrication procedures at an extreme low temperature. At normal temperatures it is-recognized that the mass of the bearing plate represents a substantial heat sink.As such-the mass acts to drastically quench steel heated locally above the transition temperature. Mi Id steels with 0.25%or more carbon may form zones of brittle martensite, but for the A36 plate in question, the low (less than 0.20/0)carbon precludes the formation of embrittl ing martensite. The microstructure of the plate is simply modified by zones of less desirable coarse grains and coarse pearlite..These microstructural variations are not likely to act as metallurgical notches.The sameditions are produced by both cuts and welds.If the welding procedure did cause cracks in the bearing piate, they would most likely follow the contour of the weld metalloase metal interface, that is within the hardened structure of the heat affected zone.In effect the weld bead would remain attached to the trumpet and leave a chamfer-shaped edge on the bearing plate.It Is true that branch cracks might form but their propagation depends on both the notch sensitivity of the plate and a high strain rate loading...,.I/:'0";: 58-112 --2-Inland-Ryerson Construction Products Co.27 October 1969 58-113 The Welding Handbook points out that almost all carbon steels are notch sensitive below a certain temperature or above a certain strain rate.The sensitivity of the steel varies considerably with the composition, thickness and rigidity of the structure; it is related to the general toughness of the steel or the ability to withstand impact or shock loads.In this regard the thickness of the bearing plates is a detriment, the composition isable (low carbon)and the rigidity of the structure is an asset.Since cupping of the bearing plate is resisted by the back-up concrete, the peripheral tensile stress at the edge of the hole is kept at a relatively low level.And finally, tendons and anchor hardware are a static system, not subject to impac..or high strain rate loadings.It is also important to point out that the weld holding the trumpet to the plate has two functions; 1)it maintains the axis of the trumpet perpendicular to the face of the bearing plate and 2)it prevents leakage of the grout/concrete during construction. Once the concrete has set, the weld has no further function;as an example, in one concrete structure, the plate is placed and grouted after the trumpets are embedded and the gap between the tube and plate are simply calked.By the way of demonstration that the proposed prestressing system wi II function properly at normal temperatures, several buildings and bridges using a similar system with simi lor materials, have been built during the past decade and none of these has experienced degradation such as cracking or failure of any of the components. Some of the bridges have also endured extremely low temperatures.

SUMMARY

The WCS 2.0 Mep/170-W Post-Tensioning System has been developed primarily for use in post-tensioned concrete reactor vessels and containment structures in which massive concrete sections and large required prestressing forces dictate the need for tendons of high capacity.In some of these applications the end anchorages may be exposed to very low ambienteratures which may exist at the exterior of the structure. Because of the critical nature and function of these structures, it was felt necessary to prove the adequacy of the system when subjected to these low temperatures. The following report covers the procedures and resu Its of a test conducted to demonstrate this adequacy.A reinforced concrete test specimen was constructed utilizing materials and components typical of those used in actual practice.The cross section of the specimen was square and the size was selected to represent, on four sides, the conditions of minimum concrete cover that would exist on one side of the tendon anchorage buttress in a typical containment structure. When the concrete had achieved strength a 169-wire tendon was insta lied and stressed to a load cqualent to seventy percent of its guaranteed ultimate tensile strength.An insulating enclosure was placed around the test specimen and using liquid nitrogen, the assembly was cooled to a temperature of approximately minus eighty degrees, Farenheit. This temperature was selected arbitrarily as being significantly lower than the lowest expected outdoor temperature for most areas of the country.The cooling period required approximately twenty-four hours to reach and stabi I ize at the se lected temperature. At this point the load-test phase was commenced'Nhile maintaining the reduced temperature. The load on the tendon was increased to 80%G.U.T.S.and held for fifteen minutes.At this point the load was then cycled between 60%and 80%G.U.T.S.for 500 cycles.Following the cyclic loading, the force in the tendon'.'las increased to 100%of its guaranteed ultimate load.At no time during the test was there any failure or evident distress in any component of the system.Post-test examination of the wire, bearing plate and anchorage hardware revealed no cracking or permanent damagi ng distortion. SECTION 5B 5B-116\Jt-;lJAE:-J.,/'Q-2. WESTERN CONCRETE STRUCTURES, INC.2.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this test was to demonstrate the low temperature serviceability of the 170-wire, BBR-type buttonhead anchorage post-tensioning system, including shims and bearing plate and to determine the crack sensitivity of tendon anchorage components when stressed to 0.7 G.U.T.S.cooled to a temperature of'approximately-80 0 F., subjected to 500 cycles of loading between 0.6 and 0.8 G.U.T.S., and then subjected to a static load of 1.0 G.U.T.S.3.0 MATERIALS With the exception of the bearing plates, all of the components of the test anchorage assembly represent an essentially random selection of material or fabricated items from stock.a.Wire: Domestic stress-rei ieved wire conforming to the requirements of ASTM A 421 Grade BA was used to fabricate the tendon.Certificates of the chemical analysis and tensile properties are included in Appendix A2.0.The buttonhead anchorage produced by cold upsetting the shear-cut end of the wire conformed to the requirements of the WCS 1.5 FS Head-Seat Systems.b.Shims (Part No.101006): Hot rolled plate conforming to the.require-ments of ASTM A 36 were torch-cut to the shape and dimensions shown by F i gu reA1-1.All loose mill scale was removed by chipping and wire-brushing; all edges were deburred to assure full surface contact with adjacent shims, stressing washer and bearing plate.The cut edges were not machined, ground, or otherwise finished from the torch-cut condition. c.Stressing Washer (Part No.101003): Rod stock (6-1/2" die.)of AISI4142 steel was rough turned, dri lied and heat treated to a hardness of R c 42+/-2 and then threaded.The seria I number of the stressi ng washer used in the test was number 1024 and details are shown on Figure Al-2 which is included together with mi II chemical analysis and heat treat certification in AppendixA1.O.d.Washer Nut (Part No.101004): Tube stock of AlSl4142 steel was machined and then heat treated to a hardness of R c 42+/-2.The washer nut was'finished to the dimensions shown on Figure A 1,-3, which is included in AppendixA1.0 along with the mill chemical analysis and heat treat certifications. Threading wasformed after heat treat.The serial number of the part used in the test was#561.e.Bearing Plate (Part No.100121): Hot rolled plate conforming to the require-ments of ASTM A 36 (silicon killed, fine grain practice)was torch-cut to the shape and dimensions shown on Figure A 1-4, which is included in AppendixA1.0 together with the certified chemical and physical analysis.SECTION 58 5B-117 \:::-"1.// WESTERN CONCRETE STRUCTURES, INC.3.0 MATERIALS (continued) f.Reinforcing Steel: Intermediate grade deformed reinforcing barsing to the requirements of ASTM A15 were placed in the concrete supporting the bearing plate in the manner shown on Figure 3-1 and 3-2.Mill certificates for the reinforcing steel are contained in Appendix A2.O.g.Concrete: The concrete used in the test specimen conformed to the mix design prepared by Twining Laboratories, a copy of which is included indix A2.0.The criteria for the mix design were: 1)compressive strength of 5,000 psi in5-10 days, 2)3/4-inch maximum size hardrock aggregate, 3)2-1/20/0 entrained air, 4)4-in.maximum slump.Twining Laboratories also inspected placement of bearing plates, reinforcing steel and concrete, and made cylinder tests as reported by them in Appendix A2.0.At the time of the cyclic loading and ultimate load test the concrete strength was.5,078 psi as indicated by two test cylinders. The age of the concrete at this time was 12 days.The modulus of elasticity was determined to be 3,383,000 psi.4.0 PREPARATION OF TEST SPECIMEN 4.1 Plate Size and Preparation: In order to obtain plates for the test specimen with as high a carbon content as has been utilized to date in construction; it was necessary to produce the tesrsamples from 4-inch thick plate, the only material avai lable with a carbon content of approximately 0.2%.Consequently, a 4-inch thick piece, 2 1-0".X 4 1-0", was obtained and ground on one face to a thickness of 3-3/4inches. The plate was then torch-cut into eight pieces as shown in Fig.4-1.All cutting was started on the unground side and this side of the bearing plate, piece No.P1, was placed against the concrete so that any harmful effects of the mill rolled surface wou Id be on the tensi Ie surface.4.2 Mechanical Faults: In an attempt to make the test more severe than any condition that would occur in practice, several artificial flaws were added in addition to whatever metallurgical notches might be produced by torch-cutting the tendon tube hole.These mechanical faults, shown in Figures 4-1, through 4-5, consisted of 1)aV notch produced with a cold-chisel and intended to simulate a case where the edge of a plate is dropped across the hole edge of another plate, 2)a 1/2 inch long radially directed torch-cut slot intended to simulate the case of an overlooked, misdirected torch-cut and 3)a hook-shaped, torch-cut slot intended to simulate the case of an overlooked stc:rting cut that had been made on the incorrect side of the opening.In addition, during the welding of the trumpet tube to the bearing plate, the welding rod was deliberately dragged away from the joint for a distance of one inch onto the plate and on completion the rod was grounded-out to the plate and then broken off to simulate an accidental weld strike.While the faults may be realistic, it is considered inconceivable that a bearing plate containing anyone of them would escape detection and be installed on a concrete structure.

4.3 Inspection

The bearing plate was inspected for crocks or other surface defects using dye penetrant. This inspection was made on both sides of the plate in an area approximately six inches wide surrounding the center hole.The surface of the hole was also checked.This inspection was repeated after the trumpet tube was welded to the bearing plate.No evidence of cracking was detected as a result of these inspections.

4.4 Instrumentation

Placement: Copper-constantan thermocouples and strain gage rosettes were attached to the bearing plate.The strain gages were placed as close as practical to the weld between the trumpet tube and bearing plate;the center of the gage was approximately 1/2 11 from the toe of the weld.The position and orientation of the gage axes are shown in Figs.4-6 and 4-7.The thermocouple on the outside of the plate was installed. after the concrete was cast and the forms stripped.Thermocouple readout was by a Leeds and Northrop Model 8662ature potentiometer while strain gages were read with a Baldwin SR4 strain gage readout.SECTION 5B 5B-124-.-."\...-, l.' -PLATE P2 SHOWN PLATE P4 SIMILIAR BEARING PLATE 20 1/2" SQ.x 3 3/4 11 THK.GROUND SURFACE ,THERMOCOUPLE T4 ,WASHER&.WASHER NUT I II SH rMS-4/2THERMOCOUPLES OUTSIDE FACE OF CONCRETE THERMOCOUPLE TI (CHAMBER TEMPERATURE) DATI Dlta.av OWN.av LOW TEMPERATURE BEHAVIOR OF THE WCS 2.0 Mep/170-W POST-TENSIONING SYSTEM""OJ.NO.1-445 Fig.4-6 eKD.av SECTION 5B 5B-125 19113 SOUTH HANIL.JON AVINUE GARDENA'CALI*ORNIA .321-1571 SNT_OF" SU'T*n I1'-+-1---I J---+1+-t-I--r STRA IN GAGES--4-+----+-----I.....-++__.

Liquid nitrogen was used for chamber cooling.Loading was accomplished by means of a WCS 1,000 Ton stressing jack.6.2 Stressing Jack Cal ibration: The jack was cal ibrated using a short tendon and a compression type load cell.Jack output force was obtained as a function of hydraulic pressure at 100 kip increments from 100 to 1100 kips.This data was plotted and extrapolated to 2000 kips, as shown by the data sheet and calibration contained in Appendix A 3.0.6.3 Cool Down: The tendon was installed in the test block, with shims at the test end, after the concrete reached 4000 psi, and the insu lated chamber placed over the test assembly as shown in 6-1 and 6-4.When concrete strength reached 4,845 psi the tendon was stressed to 1 ,393 kips (700/0 of G.U.T.S.)and the cooldown started.Cooling was by means of liquid nitrogen bled into the chamber.Upon entry into the chamber the nitrogen vaporized to a gas and was circu lated by the notch driven fan..Temperature on both faces of the bearing plate, on the inside surface of the washer and in the chamber was monitored and recorded at one-half hour intervals during the cooldown period.Also recorded were the strains registered by the two rosettes.These data are contained in Appendix A3.O.Cooldown required approximately 24 hours.At the end of this period, the temperature at the concrete face and exposed face of the bearing plate were-73 0 F ae5'd-81 0 F.respectively. Lowest chamber temperature during cooldown was-128 F.6.4 Cyclic Loading: Immediately following the cooldown period the tendon was stressed to a hydrauIic pressure of 7728 psi (80%G.U*T*S.)and he Id at th is load for 15 minutes.The load on the tendon was then cycled between 60%and 80 0 k of guaranteed ultimate tensi Ie strength (1, 194,600 Ibs.and 1,592,000 Ibs.respectively) a total of five hundred times.Each cycle consisted of an increase in load from 60 0 k to 80%of G.U.T.S.and then back to 60%.Cycling rate was approximately 1 00 cycles per hour.Load was determined by means of the stressing jack hydraulic pressure, measured using the same gage that had been used for jack calibration. A.fter each 100 cycles, strain gage data was read at 600/0 and 80%load and recorded along with bearing plate and anchor head temperature. These data may be found in Appendix A3.0.SECTION 5B 5B-137

Temperatures during this test were-76°F.at the concrete face of the bearing plate, and-87°F.at the front face.6.6 Post Test Inspection: Upon completion of testing, the tendon was removed from the test assembly, the wires cut, and the anchorage hardware removed for inspection. The washer and washer nut were checked for distortion and dye penetrant inspected for cracks.The outer face of the bearing plate, a ground surface was check for flatness.The bearing plate was then removed from the concrete and dye penetrant inspected. RESULTS 7.1 Chemical and physical properties of the material used in the bearing plate tested.was determined by Atlas Testing Laboratories of Los Angeles.Copies of their reports are included in Appendix A.Tensile yield in the longitudinal direction as determined from the average of three tests was 35,000 psi.This is almost 3%lower than the value of 36,000 psi minimum specified in A-36.Ultimate tensile strength was in the low end of the allowable range.Chemical composition was undistinguished with a carbon content of.21%.This is higher than any of the plates used in production. 7.2 The plate tested showed no visible signs of damage after being loaded to tendon guaranteed ultimate tensile strength, following 500 cycles of loading from 60%to 80%of tendon guargnteed ultimate tensile strength, all at temperatures between-70 0 F.and-90 F.7.3 Post test inspection revealed no deformation or cracks on either the anchorage hardware or bearing plate.7.4 Strain gage data indicated that strains were linear throughout the cyclic and ultimate load test phases showing that the bearing plate stresses remained below the yield point of the material at ultimate tendon load.SECTION 58 58-141//82-----------_._----,..,,,.,.,..._------,,...

8.0 CONCLUSION

S 8.1 Due to the comparatively higher carbon content and low yield strength, it may be concluded that, in terms of material properties, this test represented a more severe condition than would be expected on the job.8.2 Deliberate damage to the plate, as described in Section 4.2 was severe.These defects would ordinarily be cause for rejection. It may therefore be stated, that in terms of material condition, the plate tested represented an extreme case.8.3 The serviceability of the bearing plate at temperatures well below normal ambient conditions has been demonstrated. 8.4 In view of this test, wherein a defective bearing plate with unacceptably low physical properties was loaded to values which will not be encountered in actual use, under temperatures lower than ever expected, without failure;it may concluded that the bearing plate design is suitable for the use intended.
