- Abstract
The quality of grouting in pre-stressed pipelines plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and durability of pre-stressed concrete bridges. In this study, the transmission wave method was proposed as a means to assess the quality of grouting in pre-stressed pipelines. The ABAQUS finite element simulation (FE simulation) method was used to study the propagation of hammer stress waves in pre-stressed pipes. A full-scale test was conducted to verify the numerical simulation using the AGI-BWG instrument system developed to detect the quality of grouting. The results show that the propagation speed of transmitted waves increases and the frequency shifts towards higher frequencies with an increase in void length within pre-stressed pipelines. This research suggests that the propagation velocity of elastic waves in pre-stressed pipelines serves as a key indicator of grouting quality. The transmission wave method, based on hammer signals, proves to be an effective tool for detecting the quality of grouting in pre-stressed pipelines.
