Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for constructing a slope in a waste landfill, and more specifically, to a method for constructing a slope in a waste landfill by constructing a vertical cutoff wall in a landfill to be constructed on the original ground and then excavating a first excavation section inside the vertical cutoff wall, thereby preventing the first excavation section from collapsing during the construction of the first excavation section. Background Technology
[0002] Generally, waste landfills are sites for burying household waste generated during daily life and industrial waste from industrial sites; they are operated by public or private entities and vary in size depending on the volume of waste accepted.
[0003] Furthermore, the waste treatment method using 'landfill' involves excavating the project site to a planned depth, burying the waste starting from the bottom of the landfill facility, stacking the waste to a certain height on top of the accumulated waste, and repeating the process of covering the stacked waste with a barrier material (referred to as a 'covering layer') such as low-permeability soil, solidified materials, or soil recycled from construction waste, thereby allowing the waste to decompose naturally.
[0004] For example, when constructing a waste landfill underground to a depth of about 40m, construction is carried out from the top to the bottom. The excavation is performed in one go to a depth of 5 to 7m with the same slope gradient, and after forming a terrace of more than 2m, the process of excavating another 5 to 7m is repeated until the target underground excavation depth is reached.
[0005] In addition, the excavation of the waste landfill formed as described above involves forming slopes with different angles depending on the soil conditions at the project site, as shown in the attached drawing Fig. 8. This is because the degree of sliding that occurs varies depending on the angle of the slope formed, depending on whether the ground is weak, such as a landfill layer or a sedimentary layer, or strong, such as weathered soil or bedrock; therefore, the angle of the slope is formed differently to ensure safety.
[0006] However, as mentioned above, when forming slopes for landfills with different slope angles depending on the soil type, if the soil is a sedimentary layer or a landfill layer, the relatively projected excavation area—that is, the slope forming the slope—becomes wider. Conversely, although the length of the slope is formed longer and safer, it fails to reach the desired excavation depth, resulting in a shallow landfill depth corresponding to the landfill volume and a problem where the landfill volume is reduced.
[0007] Accordingly, in order to resolve the above-mentioned problems, the "Method for Forming a Slope of a Waste Landfill" of Korean Patent Registration No. 2503396, which was previously filed and registered by the applicant, is known.
[0008] A conventional method for creating a slope in a waste landfill is characterized by the following steps in order to control the landfill capacity of the waste landfill by adjusting the slope angle of the soil characteristics of the original ground to the slope angle of the landfill slope having the characteristics of bedrock: a temporary excavation process for excavating the original ground to have a certain depth and slope; a layer cutting process for forming stepped layers on the excavated slope; a compaction layer stacking process for adjusting the soil characteristics of the original ground to have the same soil characteristics as bedrock in the ground where the layer cutting process is completed, and compacting the adjusted soil to the height and width of each stepped groove to form a soil stabilization layer; and an angle adjustment process for increasing the landfill area by cutting and slicing the surface of a plurality of stacked compacted layers to form a slope having the same slope as a bedrock soil layer when the compaction layer stacking process is completed.
[0009] In addition, the conventional method for creating a slope of a waste landfill is characterized by further including a vertical cutoff wall installation process in which a vertical cutoff wall is constructed at a certain distance from the landfill excavation site prior to the temporary excavation process.
[0010] However, the conventional slope construction method for waste landfills described above involves constructing a vertical cutoff wall at a certain distance from the excavation site prior to the temporary excavation process. This method had a problem in that accidents frequently occurred where the slope formed around the temporary excavation area collapsed because the vertical cutoff wall became separated from the slope formed around the temporary excavation area during the temporary excavation process.
[0011] In addition, since the slope surface of the landfill, which is finally constructed using conventional slope construction methods, consists of soil, there was also a problem in that accidents of the landfill slope collapsing frequently occurred when it rained during the waste disposal process, as rainwater infiltrated the soil constituting the slope.

[0013] Accordingly, the present invention has been devised to resolve the aforementioned conventional problems, and the objective of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing a slope of a waste landfill that prevents the excavation surface of the first excavation section from collapsing during the construction of the first excavation section by constructing a vertical cutoff wall on a landfill site to be constructed on the original ground and then excavating a first excavation section inside the vertical cutoff wall.
[0014] Another objective of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing slopes in a waste landfill, wherein a water-blocking plate is placed on the surfaces of a first slope, an extended slope, a horizontal section, a second slope, and a third slope formed in the waste landfill to prevent rainwater from infiltrating the slopes of the landfill.
[0015] Another objective of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing slopes in a waste landfill that prevents the water barrier from sagging downward and peeling off after construction by connecting the upper end of the water barrier covering the surfaces of the first slope, the extended slope, the horizontal section, the second slope, and the third slope to the upper end of the vertical water barrier wall. means of solving the problem

Specific details for implementing the invention
[0021] Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that the present invention may be implemented in a number of different forms and is not limited to the described embodiments.
[0022] FIGS. 1 to 7 are drawings sequentially showing each construction step of the slope formation method according to the present invention.
[0023] As illustrated in the drawing, the method for constructing a slope of a waste landfill according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the "slope construction method") prevents the excavation surface of the first excavation section from collapsing during the construction of the first excavation section by constructing a vertical cutoff wall on a landfill to be constructed on the original ground and then excavating a first excavation section inside the vertical cutoff wall, and includes a vertical cutoff wall construction step (S1), a first excavation section construction step (S2), a first slope stabilization work construction step (S3), a second excavation section construction step (S4), a second slope stabilization work construction step (S5), and a third excavation section construction step (S6).
[0024] The above vertical cutoff wall construction step (S1) involves constructing a vertical excavation section (1) in the weathered soil layer and weathered rock layer underground of the landfill site to be constructed on the original ground, and then constructing a known vertical cutoff wall (2) inside the vertical excavation section (1).
[0025] The above vertical cutoff wall (2) is a known type and can be selected from sheet piles, SCW (soil cement wail), CIP (cast in place pile), diaphregm wail, continuous underground wall (diaphregm wail), continuous row CIP, and continuous row A-CIP. The description of its specific configuration and construction is omitted.
[0026] In addition, in the above vertical cutoff wall construction step (S1), after constructing a vertical excavation section (1) to a certain depth for the landfill to be formed on the original ground, and before constructing the vertical cutoff wall (2) inside the vertical excavation section (1), a process may be further carried out to construct a concrete reinforcement section in which the vertical cutoff wall (2) is seated at the bottom of the vertical excavation section (1) by injecting and curing concrete at the bottom of the vertical excavation section (1). At this time, although the present invention describes the injection and curing of concrete, urethane foam may also be used.
[0027] Next, the first excavation section construction step (S2) involves excavating the weathered soil on the upper part of the original ground inside the vertical cutoff wall (2) to a certain depth to excavate the first excavation section (3) and forming a first perimeter layer (31) protruding inwardly at the lower part of the first excavation section (3).
[0028] And when forming the first perimeter layer (31), it is preferable to excavate the lower perimeter of the first excavation part (3) into an inclined surface (S), and then cut and level the upper and inner sides of the inclined surface (S) to form the first perimeter layer (31).
[0029] Next, the step (S3) of constructing the first slope stabilization work is to construct the first soil homogenization layer (41), in which soil and cement are mixed in multiple layers, by embanking and compacting it in the first excavation section (3), and to form the first temporary slope (42) that extends upward from the lower inner side to the outer side on the inner side of the first soil homogenization layer (41), and to cut and level the inner side of the first temporary slope (42) to form a vertical surface (43) on the lower inner side of the first soil homogenization layer (41), and to form the first slope (44) that extends upward from the upper side of the vertical surface (43) to the outer side, thereby constructing the first slope stabilization work (4) around the perimeter of the first excavation section (3).
[0030] Next, the second excavation section construction step (S4) involves excavating the weathered soil layer in the inner lower part of the vertical surface (43) down to the weathered rock layer to excavate the second excavation section (5) and forming a second perimeter layer (51) protruding inwardly at the lower part of the second excavation section (5).
[0031] Next, the step (S5) of constructing the second slope stabilization work is to construct a second soil homogenization layer (61) mixed with soil and cement by embanking and compacting it in multiple layers on the inner side of the second excavation part (5) and the inner side of the vertical surface (43), and to form a second temporary slope (62) extending upward from the bottom to the outside on the inner side of the second soil homogenization layer (61), and to cut and level the inner side of the second temporary slope (62) to form an extension slope (63) extending downward from the first slope (44) on the inner side of the second soil homogenization layer (61), and to form a horizontal surface (64) on the lower inner side of the extension slope (63), and to form a second slope (65) extending downward on the lower inner side of the horizontal surface (64), thereby constructing the second slope stabilization work (6).
[0032] Next, the third excavation section construction step (S6) involves excavating the weathered rock layer below the second slope (65) to a certain depth to construct the third excavation section (7), and forming a third slope (71) that is inclined to extend downward from the second slope (65) on the inner side of the third excavation section (7).
[0033] Accordingly, the present invention has the advantage of improving safety during construction by preventing the first excavation section (3) from collapsing during construction by preventing the first excavation section (3) from collapsing during excavation, thereby preventing safety accidents by constructing a vertical cutoff wall (2) on a landfill site to be constructed on the original ground and then excavating the first excavation section (3) inside the vertical cutoff wall (2).
[0034] In addition, in the vertical cutoff wall construction step (S1) of the present invention, the height of the upper part of the vertical cutoff wall (2) is positioned below the original ground surface, and a perimeter groove (11) is further formed on the upper part of the vertical cutoff wall (2), and a plurality of anchor bolts (21) are further installed on the upper part of the vertical cutoff wall (2).
[0035] In addition, after the third excavation construction step (S6), the present invention may further proceed to a water barrier construction step (S7) in which a water barrier plate (8) is further constructed to prevent rainwater from penetrating the slopes of the landfill by covering the first slope (44), the extended slope (63), the horizontal plane (64), the second slope (65), and the third slope (71), and is secured by a nut (N) that is inserted into the circumferential groove (11), penetrates the anchor bolt (21), and is fastened to the anchor bolt (21).
[0036] Accordingly, the present invention has the advantage of preventing rainwater from penetrating the slopes of the landfill and causing them to collapse during the process of burying waste after construction of the landfill by covering the surfaces of the first slope (44), extended slope (63), horizontal plane (64), second slope (65), and third slope (71) formed in the waste landfill with a water barrier plate (8) to prevent rainwater from penetrating the slopes of the landfill.
[0037] In addition, the present invention has the advantage of preventing sagging damage to the water barrier plate (8) after construction by connecting the upper end of the water barrier plate (8) covering the surface of the first slope (44), extended slope (63), horizontal plane (64), second slope (65), and third slope (71) to the upper end of the vertical water barrier wall (2), thereby preventing the water barrier plate (8) from sagging downward and peeling off after construction.
[0038] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention may use various variations, modifications, and equivalents. It is clear that the present invention can be applied in the same way by appropriately modifying the above embodiments. Therefore, the above description does not limit the scope of the invention as defined by the limitations of the following claims.
[0039] Meanwhile, although specific embodiments have been described in the detailed description of the present invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications are possible within the scope of the present invention. Explanation of the symbols
