Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of foundation pit engineering technology, specifically to a drainage well system for a ground-mounted water-stop curtain and its construction method. Background Technology
[0002] In deep foundation pit engineering, ground-mounted water-stop curtains are often used as retaining and water-stopping structures, such as diaphragm walls, pile banks, and jet grouting piles. After the main structure (such as the main structural wall) is completed, a ring-shaped trench will be formed between it and the foundation pit retaining structure. This trench is usually backfilled with plain soil or lime-soil, but its seepage prevention performance and density are not as good as the original soil.
[0003] During the later stages of use, because the water-stop curtain is not completely impermeable, and due to the pressure of water and soil, groundwater will slowly seep into the trench through minor defects or bypass paths in the water-stop curtain. If this seepage water cannot be drained in time, it will soak the exterior walls of the main structure for a long time and exert seepage pressure on the backfill soil of the trench, which may lead to backfill soil loss, ground settlement, and even adverse effects on the main structure.
[0004] Traditional solutions involve setting up temporary dewatering wells at the bottom of the foundation pit. A few projects have also attempted to install drainage blind ditches within the pit, such as the underground structure drainage system integrating pipe well dewatering and pit seepage prevention and anti-buoyancy disclosed in Chinese patent CN214574064U. The underground structure drainage system is located on one side of the basement, and the basement has a base slab. The basement structure drainage system includes a pressure-reducing dewatering well, a drainage blind ditch, and a ring-shaped rainwater pipe network. The drainage blind ditch is located on one side of the basement, and the pressure-reducing dewatering well is installed inside the drainage blind ditch. The pressure-reducing dewatering well includes a steel pipe and a reinforcing cage. The steel pipe is fitted inside the reinforcing cage. The steel pipe consists of a filter pipe and a solid pipe. The filter pipe is located at the bottom, and the solid pipe is located above the filter pipe. The height of the reinforcing cage is greater than the height of the filter pipe. Filter material is filled between the reinforcing cage and the steel pipe. A water pump is installed inside the steel pipe, and the water pump is connected to the ring-shaped rainwater pipe network through a pipe equipped with a water stop valve.
[0005] However, the drainage wells in the aforementioned existing technologies will be gradually closed as the main structure is constructed, which cannot solve the long-term seepage problem in the trench after the structure is completed. Moreover, the blind drain is prone to failure due to soil settlement and is difficult to connect to the municipal pipe network system to realize resource utilization. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The present invention aims to provide a drainage well system and its construction method for a ground-mounted water-stop curtain system in a ferrule, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution.
[0007] A drainage well system for a foundation pit suitable for a ground-mounted waterproof curtain includes a drainage well body located within a backfill area of the foundation pit, between the main structural wall and the ground-mounted waterproof curtain. The drainage well bodies are arranged at predetermined intervals within the backfill area. The outer facade of the main structural wall is provided with a waterproof layer. The drainage well body includes a non-porous solid pipe section and a perforated filter section located below the non-porous solid pipe section. The perforated filter section is covered with a filter layer, and the surrounding grooves of the filter layer are filled with graded filter media. The lower end of the drainage well body is positioned below the bottom of the foundation pit and above the stable waterproof layer. A pumping system is installed within the drainage well body to promptly pump out seepage water from the foundation pit when the water level within the drainage well body rises to a preset level. The pumping system is connected to the municipal stormwater pipe network.
[0008] Preferably, the pumping system includes a submersible pump, a liquid level sensor, and a control unit. The submersible pump is located at the bottom of the drainage well body, the liquid level sensor is located at a predetermined position in the lower part of the drainage well body, and the control unit is connected to the liquid level sensor via a wireless data transmission module.
[0009] Preferably, the filter layer is a geotextile filter cloth.
[0010] Preferably, the graded filter media is clean quartz sand with a particle size of 2-5 mm.
[0011] Preferably, the spacing between the drainage well bodies is no greater than 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the side length of the adjacent foundation pit.
[0012] Preferably, the porosity of the perforated filter section is 15% to 20%.
[0013] The construction method for any of the aforementioned methods for a drainage well system within a trench suitable for a ground-mounted water-stop curtain includes the following steps: S1, Construction of main structural wall and ground-mounted water-stop curtain; After the deep foundation pit is excavated and supported, the main structural wall and ground-mounted water-stop curtain are constructed. A ring-shaped backfill area is reserved between the main structural wall and the ground-mounted water-stop curtain. A waterproof layer is laid on the outside of the main structural wall. S2, locate the installation point of the dewatering well body; arrange the installation points of the dewatering well body in the circumferential direction within the backfill area of the fertilizer trench; S3, Install the drain well body; Place the well pipe into the well pit according to the location. The well pipe includes a non-porous solid pipe section and a perforated filter section located below the non-porous solid pipe section. Cover the outside of the perforated filter section with geotextile filter cloth and backfill the surrounding area with graded filter material. The lower end of the well pipe should penetrate below the bottom of the foundation pit and be located above the stable water-resistant layer. S4, Install the pumping system; Install a level sensor in the perforated filter section. The level sensor is connected to the control unit outside the well pipe via a wireless data transmission module. Place the submersible pump at the bottom of the perforated filter section. The submersible pump is connected to the drainage pipe. The cables of the drainage pipe and the submersible pump are led out through the reserved hole at the wellhead. The cable of the submersible pump is connected to the control unit. When the level sensor detects that the water level in the drainage well body exceeds the set threshold, the control unit controls the submersible pump to start and discharge the seepage water collected in the drainage well body in a timely manner. S5, connected to the municipal stormwater pipe network; after installing a check valve and anti-backflow device at the end of the drainage pipe, it is connected to the municipal stormwater pipe network; S6, backfill the backfill area of the fertilizer trench in layers and seal the wellhead; S7, System Debugging and Handover: After completing the aforementioned installation steps, conduct water flow tests and linkage tests. Once the system is confirmed to be running stably, hand it over to the subsequent management unit.
[0014] Preferably, in S1, the waterproof layer is formed by laying waterproof membrane or by applying fluorine-coated waterproof coating.
[0015] Preferably, in S2, the spacing between the drainage well bodies is 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of the side length of the adjacent foundation pit, and they are densely arranged in the corner area of the foundation pit.
[0016] Preferably, in S6, the fertilizer trench is backfilled in layers using plain soil, lime soil, graded sand and gravel or fluidized solidified soil, with each layer not exceeding 300mm in thickness; when the backfill reaches 300mm below the ground, concrete supports are poured around the wellhead, and cast iron maintenance covers with sealing rings are installed, with the covers flush with the ground.
[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1) The main body of the drainage well is set on the seepage path in the backfill area of the fertilizer pit. The seepage water between the main structure and the water-stop curtain is extracted by the water pump to avoid water accumulation and erosion of the main structure, and to realize long-term monitoring of the water level at the bottom of the pit.
[0018] 2) The main body of the drainage well is installed after the main structure and the backfill area of the fertilizer trench are completed. Compared with the temporary drainage well in the existing technology, it can be used as a permanent facility, which can continuously deal with the problems of groundwater leakage and buoyancy during the service life of the structure. It can also be used for municipal purposes such as irrigation in the later stage. It can serve as a long-term drainage facility and realize the reuse of water resources.
[0019] 3) The reserved interface of the main drainage pipe can be used as a maintenance and dewatering facility for underground pipe network after the completion of the project, such as road drainage and pipeline maintenance dewatering, thereby improving the overall benefits of the project.
[0020] 4) The drainage well structure relies on the water-stop curtain, the waterproof layer of the bottom slab, and the waterproof layer of the external wall of the structure to form a closed "basin-shaped" waterproof system. The water pump only pumps out the excess seepage water in the basin, avoiding the waste of water resources caused by continuously pumping groundwater over a larger area, and also avoiding the impact on the groundwater level around the project.
