Study on the Durability of the T-Beam Based on Chloride Ion Erosion.

Based on analyzing the bearing capacity of existing T-beam bridges in service, the factors that affect the T-beams cracked by chloride ions mainly include the width and the depth of cracks. Combined with practical engineering examples, a single-piece T-beam model is established to explore the influence of factors such as crack width and crack depth on the T-beams affected by chloride ion erosion through numerical simulation in this paper. In addition, the attenuation models of bending capacity and shear capacity of the T-beam are obtained to analyze the possible failure modes of T-beams with cracks. All of which provides a reference for exploring the effect of crack width and depth on the durability of reinforced concrete members under chloride ion field.
