Relationship Between Strength and Deformation Characteristics of High-strength Self-compacting Con-crete

he paper provides data on the strength and deformation characteristics of heavy self-compacting concrete of classes B30-B100 with a cubic compressive strength of 36.5-114.8 MPa. It has been established that the values of the concrete prism compressive strength (36.2-104.2 MPa) are 42-64% higher than the normalized values given in the building code of the Russian Federation SP 63.13330.2018. The values of the static modulus of elasticity for high-strength concretes of classes B80-B100 are 44.1-48.1 GPa and exceed by 5-12% the values given in SP 63.13330.2018. The ultimate compressive strains of concrete of classes B30-B100 are in the range from 261×10-5 to 326×10-5 and exceed the value of 200×10-5 given in SP 63.13330.2018. Complete deformation diagrams of self-compacting concretes of classes B30-B100 have been constructed. The nonlinearity of these ones decreases with increasing concrete strength. The descending branch of the σ-ε diagram is observed only for concrete of a class below B55 with a total relative compres-sive strain of 403.3 × 10-5 under a loading level of 0.85Rb. Concrete of classes B55-B100 has no descending branch. Previously established dependencies are refined for the analytical description of strains and stresses at any stages of loading structures.
