Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of grouting construction in foundation engineering, and particularly to a method for grouting geological classification and construction parameter setting based on rock mass permeability. Background Art

[0002] In foundation engineering construction, curtain grouting is an important method to improve the integrity of rock mass and reduce the permeability of bedrock. The groutability of the grouted formation directly determines the grouting effect, and accurate evaluation of the groutability of the formation helps to optimize the grouting process. However, traditional formation evaluation methods mainly rely on geological exploration data, such as borehole sampling, core analysis, and geophysical surveys. For the geological condition evaluation of foundation engineering, methods such as rock mass quality classification (RQD), surrounding rock grade (RMR), and rock integrity index (GSI) are widely used in China to evaluate the engineering properties of rock mass. RQD calculates the number of rock fractures per meter from core sampling data to reflect the degree of rock mass fragmentation. The higher the value, the better the integrity of the rock mass. The RMR rock mass classification system grades the surrounding rock by combining factors such as rock strength, RQD value, and gap width, and is used for the design of underground engineering. In addition, the GSI method evaluates the rock mass quality by observing the rock structure and weathering degree on site, and is widely used in underground tunnels and slope engineering. However, these traditional rock evaluation methods mostly describe the overall fracture density and fragmentation of rocks, adopt relatively single parameters, and are not targeted at a specific type of project. At present, there is still a blank in the geological rating method for grouting projects, especially for bedrock curtain grouting projects. Grouting construction, as an important technical means for improving basic geological conditions, urgently needs a geological rating method that conforms to its own construction characteristics.

[0003] For bedrock grouting projects, in recent years, scholars at home and abroad have proposed methods to evaluate the groutability of the formation through water pressure tests and local grouting tests. The literature "Construction and design of cement grouting" proposed a permeability classification method based on the Lugeon value of the water pressure test to evaluate the permeability of rock mass. In addition, the literature "Grouting technology in rock engineering" studied the penetration behavior of grout under different pressure conditions and established a grout diffusion model based on hydrodynamics. In actual engineering, some scholars use a combination of borehole water pressure tests and grouting tests to evaluate the permeability of the formation. However, grouting engineering practice shows that the influencing factors of formation groutability are very complex and there are many related parameters, making it difficult to obtain through a single water pressure data. More importantly, at present, optimizing the grouting strategy based on the geological conditions of the grouted formation still relies on subjective judgment based on on-site engineering experience, and a grouting construction strategy based on a unified groutability index has not been established. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the objective of the present invention is to provide a grouting geological classification and construction parameter setting method based on rock mass permeability, which can quantitatively evaluate the groutability of the formation, combine various parameters such as formation boundary conditions, and guide the grouting construction strategy.

[0049] Figure 1 This is the flowchart of the method provided by the embodiments of the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides a method for grouting geological classification and construction parameter setting based on the permeability of rock mass, including:

[0050] Step 100: Obtain the measurement data of the target construction hole section; the measurement data includes the formation water permeability, rock mass fracture parameters, formation stress boundary conditions, and slurry rheological property data; the rock mass fracture parameters include: the number of independent unfilled fractures, the apparent aperture of fractures and the filling situation;

[0055] Step 600: Set the grouting end condition according to the flow-pressure data obtained in real time.

[0056] The core content of the present invention is to propose a grouting index for the grouted formation (Seepage-based Grouting Index, SGI) to evaluate the groutability of the formation in a quantitative manner. The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem can be divided into three steps. As Figure 2 shown, the technical roadmap of the technical solution is described in detail as follows:

[0057] Step 1: Data collection

[0058] Step 1.1: As Figure 3 shown, collect rock mass fracture and water permeability data

[0059] Rock mass fissures and water permeability are key factors affecting grouting performance. Water permeability data is mainly obtained through water pressure testing, which is a standard operating procedure in grouting engineering construction. This test determines the permeability of the rock mass by injecting water into the borehole and measuring the water penetration rate. The permeability of the rock mass is closely related to the rock mass fissure data, which is obtained through borehole photography. High-resolution borehole imaging technology is used to capture the traces of the hole wall cracks, and combined with automatic image processing algorithms to extract crack parameters such as the number of cracks, center point location, occurrence, opening, filling condition, etc. These parameters can be used to calculate the degree of development of the cracks and provide basic data for the subsequent grouting index calculation.

[0060] Step 1.2: Collect formation stress boundary data

[0061] The geostress environment of the stratum and the groundwater environment directly affect the diffusion and permeability behavior of the slurry. The present invention obtains the stratum stress boundary conditions by measuring the groundwater head and estimating the geostress. The groundwater head is data that must be measured during on-site construction and can be determined by observing the water level in the borehole. Geostress is usually difficult to measure directly, but it can be estimated based on the stratum depth, lithology and regional geostress field. In combination with existing geological data and engineering experience, the present invention uses an empirical formula to calculate the geostress, and corrects it in combination with the data measured on site to ensure the rationality of the stratum stress boundary conditions.

[0062] Step 1.3: Collect slurry rheological properties data

[0063] The rheological properties of the slurry play a vital role in the grouting effect. The present invention focuses on collecting two key parameters: the water-cement ratio of the slurry and the slurry temperature. The water-cement ratio determines the fluidity and permeability of the slurry, while the temperature affects the setting time and viscosity change of the slurry. By real-time monitoring of the slurry temperature during the construction process and combining the water-cement ratio adjustment strategy, the slurry ratio can be optimized to ensure its groutability under different formation conditions.

[0064] Step 2: Grouting geological classification

[0065] Step 2.1: Calculate the grouting index (SGI)

[0066] Grouting geological classification is mainly achieved through the grouting index (SGI) of the grouting formation, which comprehensively considers the permeability of the formation and the characteristics of the rock mass fractures, and adopts a weighted calculation method to ensure the scientificity and rationality of the evaluation results. Among them, the formation permeability index (SI) can be expressed as the following formula (1):

[0067]

[0068] Where q is the formation permeability (unit: Lu), obtained by water pressure test, and the upper limit of q is limited to 147Lu; mG It is the number of independent unfilled fissures in the hole section, obtained by automatic analysis and recognition of borehole images, and its upper limit is 24. It should be noted that the formation grouting index is positively correlated with the permeability rate. However, under the condition of the same permeability rate, the formation grouting index is negatively correlated with the number of independent fissures. The larger the number of fissures, the more the formation fissure network should be described as consisting of a large number of small non-absorbing fissures. Therefore, the weighted formation permeability rate index in the present invention is smaller.

[0069] Since microfissures contribute less to the grouting process, the bedrock grouting process is mainly manifested as the slurry entering the 1 - 2 fissures with the largest aperture in the formation. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the maximum aperture of the fissures contained in the hole section formation for grouting geological classification. The present invention calculates the maximum equivalent fissure aperture of the formation through formula (2):

[0070]

[0071] Among them, b i represents the apparent aperture of each single fissure identified in the borehole image of the hole section, and the unit of the apparent aperture is taken as mm; b max is the maximum fissure aperture obtained from the geological exploration borehole sampling. After homogenization processing, the value range of the maximum equivalent fissure aperture of the formation is between 0 and 5.

[0072] Combining SI and b GM2 , the present invention proposes the grouting index (SGI) of the grouted formation, and its expression formula is as follows:

[0073]

[0074] Among them, k is a correction coefficient, which characterizes the spatial trend of formation discontinuity, and its value is related to the engineering geological properties and needs to be obtained through on-site tests during the geological exploration stage; q and m G are parameters related to the formation permeability rate, as described in formula (1); b GM2 is the maximum equivalent fissure aperture of the hole section, as described in formula (2).

[0075] Step 2.2: Calculate the formation splitting strength

[0076] According to the formation stress boundary conditions, the formation splitting strength can be calculated, and this calculated value is crucial for the involved grouting pressure. The present invention proposes two sets of calculation methods for the formation splitting strength for the construction practice of grouting projects, including the calculation method based on the downhole data during drilling and the estimation method based on the formation burial depth and groundwater conditions.

[0077] If the drilling process is carried out using a geological drill integrated with downhole sensors, the uniaxial compressive strength can be calculated through the Bourgoyne formula, and then the rock splitting strength can be estimated, as shown in formula (4):

[0078]

[0079] Among them, k1, k2, and k3 are empirical coefficients, which can generally be obtained by fitting experimental data; WOB is the drilling pressure of the borehole, with the unit of kN, reflecting the pressure of the drill bit on the rock and indirectly affecting splitting; ROP is the drilling speed of the borehole, with the unit of m / hr. The faster the drilling speed, the softer the rock usually is and the lower the splitting strength; RPM is the rotational speed of the drill bit, with the unit of r / min.

[0080] If an intelligent geological drill is not used during the drilling process, or a regression analysis of the grouting splitting pressure and the drilling-with-parameter is not carried out before construction, the present invention can still estimate the splitting strength of the rock mass in the strata of this borehole section according to the formation burial depth and groundwater conditions of the grouting hole section. The formula is expressed as follows:

[0081] σ t =(0.47 - 0.02BI)·(σ v -p w )≈0.5(σ v -p w )

[0082] Among them, p w and σ v represent the groundwater pressure and the maximum principal stress respectively, and BI represents the rock brittleness index, which is used to describe the boundary conditions of the grouting formation. In engineering practice, when the condition for measuring the maximum principal stress is not available, the maximum principal stress is estimated through the burial depth, and its formula is expressed as:

[0083] σ v =γHK0

[0084] Among them, H is the burial depth; γ is the unit weight of the rock, generally taken as 25 - 30 kN / m 3 ; K0 is the coefficient of lateral earth stress, and its value varies in different rock masses, generally taken as 0.4 - 1.0, which is determined based on the engineering geological situation.

[0085] The core of the SGI theory is the seepage field and the stress field. Its main parameters respectively reflect the water permeability of the borehole section corrected by the fracture density, the groutability of a single fracture under the condition of a fracture group, and the splitting strength of the rock mass in the borehole section. Among them, the water permeability parameter occupies a higher weight because it directly reflects the seepage capacity of the formation. The fracture situation of the borehole section is summarized as the number of independent fractures and the maximum equivalent fracture width during the calculation process, which can correct the difference between the water permeability of the borehole section and the groutability and accurately reflect the influence of the formation structure on the slurry diffusion. The formation stress boundary parameters and slurry rheological property parameters collected in Step 1 will be used for the optimization of the automatic grouting strategy in Step 3, that is, the optimized initial parameters for the construction of this section can be obtained before grouting.

[0086] All the SGI theory consists of objective and quantitative geological parameters, which can be obtained through normal on-site operations and are independent of the personal experience of front-line operators. Its value can exclude the interference of human factors to the greatest extent. Also, since the geological conditions of the bedrock affected by the grouting body are actually discontinuous and tendentious, if expressed by a simple mathematical formula, a correction coefficient k needs to be set to enhance the universality of SGI. The SGI proposed this time targets the bedrock fracture groups and can be slightly extended to special situations such as karst caves, solution fissures, and fault fracture zones, showing the potential to become a general model for bedrock grouting.

[0087] Step 3: Develop a grouting construction strategy

[0088] As Figure 4 shown, based on the calculated SGI rating value, develop a reasonable grouting construction strategy to optimize the grouting efficiency and effect. The development of the construction strategy mainly includes the following aspects:

[0089] Step 3.1: Determine whether to grout

[0090] Based on the SI value and b GM2 value in the SGI theory, it can be determined whether to grout, which is specifically divided into the following situations:

[0091] If q ≤ 3Lu and m G ≥ 1, then SI ≤ 1. At this time, if b GM2 ≤ 1, then SGI ≤ 1. Its engineering meaning is that for the hole section with a permeability of 3Lu under the condition of a single fracture, no grouting is required;

[0092] If 3Lu ≤ q ≤ 5Lu and m G ≥ 1, then 1 < SI ≤ 1.3. At this time, let b GM2 = 1, then 1 < SGI ≤ 1.3. Its engineering meaning is that for the hole section with a permeability between 3Lu and 5Lu under the condition of a single fracture, in principle, no grouting is required;

[0093] If q > 5Lu and m G = 1, then SI > 1.3. At this time, let b GM2 = 1, then SGI > 1.3, and grouting should be carried out;

[0094] To sum up, grouting is not required under the condition of SGI ≤ 1, and grouting is not required in principle when 1 < SGI ≤ 1.3 (to be determined according to specific circumstances), and grouting should be carried out when SGI > 1.3. For the hole sections that should be grouted, the selection of the grouting construction strategy should follow the requirements of steps 3.2 - 3.6.

[0095] Step 3.2: Determine the initial water-cement ratio

[0096] When the SGI rating is high, the formation is more groutable and is suitable for a lower initial water-cement ratio so that it can fill the fractures more effectively. When the SGI rating is low, the initial water-cement ratio needs to be increased to increase the rheology of the slurry and improve the permeability of the slurry.

[0097] Step 3.3: Determine the pitch change strategy

[0098] During the construction process, combined with the SGI rating and real-time monitoring of flow-pressure data, the water-cement ratio and admixture content can be dynamically adjusted to make the slurry performance more suitable for the formation conditions. For formations with uneven fissure development, it is recommended to adopt a step-by-step slurry strategy, that is, first use low-concentration slurry for initial filling, and then use high-concentration slurry to increase the filling density.

[0099] Step 3.4: Determine initial pressure and boost strategy

[0100] For formations with high SGI ratings, a lower initial pressure can be used and the pressure can be increased slowly (with a reduced water-cement ratio) to avoid premature leakage of slurry along major fractures; for formations with low SGI ratings, a higher initial pressure should be used and the pressure increase rate should be adjusted according to the change in grouting volume to ensure sufficient diffusion of the slurry.

[0101] Step 3.5: Determine the design grouting pressure

[0102] When the pressure is gradually increased during the grouting process, a sudden change will occur when the formation splitting pressure P0 is reached. At this time, the grouting pressure can be adjusted according to the adaptive grouting method. The maximum (design) grouting pressure should be controlled at P0+(0.2~0.5)MPa until the end standard is reached.

[0103] Step 3.6: Determine the end conditions of grouting

[0104] Based on the initial calculated value of the SGI rating and the real-time data during the construction process, the appropriate termination criteria are determined, such as the grouting pressure is stable within a certain range and the grouting flow rate per unit time drops to a certain threshold. Combined with on-site monitoring, if the slurry penetration rate is significantly reduced or the pressure continues to increase, it is judged that the grouting effect has reached the expected level and the grouting can be terminated.

[0105] As an optional implementation method, the following will take the specific construction hole section data of a large-scale water conservancy project as an example to specifically illustrate the implementation process of this method:

[0106] Step 1: Obtain relevant construction and geological parameters for a specific construction hole section. The data collection process can be achieved through intelligent grouting equipment and integrated hole measurement equipment, and automatically uploaded to the intelligent grouting data platform. The data can be measured in the following three steps:

[0107] Step 1.1: Determine the water permeability rate of the rock mass in the hole section through a water pressure test, identify the fracture parameters using borehole camera imaging, automatically analyze the number of fractures, aperture width, intersection conditions, etc. through image technology, and generate a grouting digital core based on previous research results, and summarize the geological information of the hole section, such as Figure 2 The typical grouting hole section digital core data is shown as follows. A total of 5 independent fractures are found, and the water permeability rate is 22.86 Lu;

[0108] Step 1.2: Determine the formation boundary conditions by measuring the groundwater head and calculating the in-situ stress. According to the depths of the above two typical grouting hole sections, the estimated splitting strengths of the formation rock masses in the hole sections are 2 MPa respectively;

[0109] Step 1.3: Collect the water-cement ratio and slurry temperature, monitor and optimize the slurry mix ratio in real time to improve the injectability.

[0110] Step 2: Calculate the SI value and b GM2 values of the above hole section to be 1.3 and 3 respectively based on the water permeability rate data of the rock mass in the hole section obtained in Step 1 and the fracture analysis data from borehole camera imaging, and the designed grouting pressure of this hole section can be estimated to be 2.4 MPa.

[0111] Step 3: Develop a grouting strategy based on the SGI value and the designed grouting pressure of the hole section;

[0112] Step 3.1: Based on the SGI value, determine whether grouting is required for the hole section. Taking the above hole section as an example, its SGI value is 3.9, and grouting must be carried out. Its grouting parameters are determined through Steps 3.2 to 3.6;

[0113] Step 3.2: Based on Figure 3 determine that the initial water-cement ratio for hole section B is 5:1;

[0114] Step 3.3: Based on Figure 3 determine to adopt a strategy of gradually changing the slurry ratio, and successively use slurries with water-cement ratios of 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, and 0.5:1;
