This invention relates to the field of construction technology in
pebble-rich water-bearing areas, and more specifically, to a construction method for buildings in such areas. The method involves first digging drainage ditches around higher elevations to intercept
surface water; then, integrating high and low elevation areas for unified excavation of the foundation pit, utilizing natural elevation differences and a gravity-fed drainage
system using perforated UPVC pipes and graded
crushed stone; setting up temporary water-retaining embankments and implementing staggered construction from high to low elevations, with closed-loop dedicated drainage channels at the junctions to direct
water flow; installing prefabricated waterproof concrete collection wells in low-
lying areas, forming a closed-loop waterproof
system with foundation
brick formwork and flexible waterproof membrane; and finally, constructing
crushed stone drainage blind paths along the surrounding wall foundations and backfilling. This invention achieves continuous, all-weather, non-powered water control, ensuring the stability of the foundation pit slopes and zero leakage in the main structure. This invention is mainly applied to the construction of buildings in
pebble-rich water-bearing areas.
