Material Performance of Anti-Differential Disturbance Concrete Based on the Vehicle–Bridge Coupling Vibration Theory

For the purpose of splicing widening bridges without interrupting traffic in expressway reconstruction and extension projects, different types of anti-differential disturbance concrete (ADC) were developed. This paper experimentally investigated the mechanical performance of ADC under the influence of traffic–vehicle coupling vibration. The experimental device, with one end fixed and the other end vertically vibrated, was designed to simulate vehicle–bridge coupling vibration on an existing old bridge. Different disturbance degrees were simulated by adopting specimens made with standard molds and integral plate molds. The compressive strength and other performances of normal-type ADC (NADC) and high-performance ADC (HPADC) were tested. Owing to the differential disturbance, the compressive strength of the NADC increased by 10~20%, and that of the HPADC was almost unaffected. The flexural tensile strengths of the NADC and the HPADC were decreased to some extent. NADC and HPADC can both meet the requirement of widening bridge splicing, and the anti-differential disturbance performance of HPADC is superior to that of NADC.
