During the construction of concrete ship locks, prolonged interruptions between the casting of the floor and lock wall are inevitable. In terms of mass concrete, long placement delays are one of the major reasons for the presence of cracks in newly placed concrete. Therefore, this study examines both the placement and structural characteristics of ship locks after long casting interruptions based on the mass concrete thermal stress theory to determine the major causal factors for cracks in newly poured concrete. Specifically, a block placement method is proposed to reduce thermal stress in newly placed concrete, and the temperature control and crack prevention capacities of the proposed method are verified using the finite element method. The development of the structure’s thermal stress under different temperature control measures is analyzed, finding that thermal stress in the lock walls can be effectively reduced by 50% through low-temperature block casting. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can significantly reduce the internal thermal stress of newly placed concrete after prolonged casting interruptions, thereby highlighting its applicability for achieving effective temperature control and crack prevention in concrete ship locks. |
