Service Life Checking Calculation of Marine Reinforced Concrete Structures Based on Monte Carlo Method

Abstract:

Checking some apparent chloride diffusion coefficient of concrete in the marine environment meets the requirements of design life based on Monte Carlo method. Through the project investigations, laboratory test data, statistical analysis and to determine random distribution model of the critical chloride concentration, the surface chloride concentration ,using computer program simulation 5000 random groups critical chloride concentration, surface chloride concentration into the life value calculation model, And obtain the derived distribution of the concrete structures service life, in order to determine Compliance with the design life of concrete structures. For the concrete durability design and service life checking provide the effective analysis under the marine environment.
