19 CASE STUDY: ANCIENT CHIMNEY INDUSTRIAL BRICK CHIMNEY IN AGOST, SPAIN (NEAR ALICANTE) PROBLEM: FATIGUE BY WIND CAN CAUSE THE CRACK PATTERN APPEARENCE. THE CRACK PATTERN AFFECTS TO THE STRUCTURAL CONDITION. THE STRUCTURAL CONDITION CAN BE ASSESSED BY STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING. HAZARD: CRACKS COULD CAUSE THE CHIMNEY TO COLLAPSE IT IS POSSIBLE TO ASSESS THE STRUCTURAL CONDITION BY DYNAMIC MODAL TEST USING NONCONTACT TECHNOLOGY AS RADAR.

20 CASE STUDY: ANCIENT CHIMNEY The University of Alicante begins the rehabilitation of one of the two ancient clay industrial structures still standing. The objective of the project is to avoid a collapse and reinforce it with glass fibers for a seismic event (earthquake). -Jose Antonio Rico of L Alacanti in Agost Archeological Industrial Monuments Corrosion and Wind factors

27 NUMERICAL MODEL FOR CHIMNEY COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS PROGRAM Boundary conditions: Footing & Wind Load Wind load: although this is actually a dynamic load for our purpose it was modeled as a static load in order to determine immediate displacement it would cause. Used two types of solvers: Eigenfrequencies & Time Dependent Varying material properties As with many ancient structures, the real properties are unknown so it was useful to solve the problem with different properties Elastic Modulus, E Rigidity Poisson s ratio Damping parameters

41 COMPARISON MODEL vs TESTS Solver: Linear Parametric Static Load on X-faces: 1400 N/m2 IT CAN BE SHOWN, THE X- DISPLACEMENT ON THE LOADED FACE IS AROUND 25 MM. THIS RESULT MATCHES WITH EXPERIMENTAL DATA

42 CONCLUSIONS Non-destructive technology supplies accurate experimental data to numerical simulations. Numerical simulation allow the explanation of different results from NDT tests to explain different behaviors depending on material properties. Non-destructive technology allows diagnosis of structural soundness of structures. In this way, future damage, possible collapsing, and hazardous situations can be prevented.
