Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention provides a drainage ditch for coping with uneven settlement of a landfill. The present invention is applied to landscape reuse projects after ecological restoration of closed landfills. More specifically, it relates to a rapid flow trough construction method for a drainage system in the reuse project, belonging to the technical field of landscape drainage facilities. Background Art
[0002] Landfill ecological restoration projects have gained popularity in recent years. Rapid chutes are drainage systems installed within landfills to quickly channel rainwater away from the pile. Their primary function is to prevent landslides and instability caused by rainwater accumulation, as well as potential pollution risks from rainwater seepage into the landfill. Currently, drainage ditches in landfills are primarily designed for operational and maintenance purposes. These ditches have limited ability to cope with unstable settlement, resulting in high maintenance costs and unsuitable for landscape reuse following ecological restoration.
[0003] As urban development shifts from incremental to stock-based development, urban construction land is becoming increasingly scarce, raising concerns about the potential value of brownfield landfills. Most landfills can achieve medium-intensity utilization after ecological restoration. The transformation of landfill ecological restoration into parkland has become a hot topic in current practice and holds significant significance for sustainable urban development. Due to the complexity, dynamism, and long-term nature of landfill pollution, most current remediation efforts struggle to completely remove hazardous substances. Therefore, balancing environmental safety and reuse during reuse projects remains a key challenge.
[0004] The main problems in current practice are: high maintenance costs. Due to the continued existence of uneven settlement in landfills, the traditional rapid flow trough technology has weak resistance to settlement and is prone to cracking. Soil and debris are easily blocked and accumulated, resulting in high maintenance costs. Due to the transformation of spatial functions after reuse, the traditional rapid flow trough cannot adapt to the natural terrain after regeneration and has poor coordination with the surrounding landscape environment.
[0005] In response to the above problems, this invention improves the existing construction technology and proposes a new drainage construction method for ecological restoration of landfills into parks. Summary of the Invention

[0044] Example
[0045] The structure of the embodiment of the present invention is shown in the figures, which will not be described in detail. The construction method of the present invention is as follows:
[0046] 1. Tamp the soil on top of the environmental process cover layer 10. Arrange the concrete supports 9 according to the project design and install the embedded parts 8 therein. The short-axis tiles 4 are directly welded to the embedded parts 8 in the concrete supports 9 using square steel support columns 6. Angle steel connectors 7 are used to secure the welds between the square steel support columns 6 and the embedded parts 8 to enhance weld stability.
[0047] 2. Short-axis tiles 4 are overlapped sequentially according to the design to form the surface layer of the rapid flow trough. A graded steel drop weir 3 is welded to the lower end of each short-axis tile 4. At the junction of the upper rapid flow trough 11 and the lower rapid flow trough 13, a connecting short-axis tile 41 is installed, with a five-level buffer weir 5 welded inside it.
[0048] 3. Pebbles of a certain thickness are laid on both sides of the short-axis tile 4 where it meets the planting soil 2 according to the engineering design to form a pebble buffer zone ditch 1.
[0049] The rapid trough of the present invention is controlled by multi-segment short-axis tiles, the aspect ratio of the tiles is controlled between 1:1 and 1:2, and the long side dimension is controlled within 1 meter to cope with the impact of unstable settlement of the landfill on the structure. The tiles adopt a double-column support structure to ensure the connectivity between the tiles and the ground, while reducing the lateral settlement of the tiles in the diagonal direction of drainage, and controlling the settlement deformation in the direction of drainage overlap to cope with the impact of uneven settlement of garbage on the rapid trough as a whole; at the same time, the short-axis tiles are made of weather-resistant steel materials to replace the existing concrete materials with weather-resistant steel materials to improve the toughness of the structure. The present invention can cope with uneven settlement of 30cm / a level (30cm / a level means 30 centimeters / year of settlement). The rapid trough of the present invention is connected to the rapid trough. Considering that the rapids trough turns with the terrain, a junction buffer zone is set up. The buffer zone structure is composed of large-span arc-shaped steel and a five-level buffer weir 5 is set up. The five-level buffer weir 5 is five water retaining plates installed at intervals in the lower section of the rapids trough at the junction to ensure the water flow rate of the rapids trough, reduce the risk of water overflow, adapt to the terrain, and integrate into the landscape environment.
[0050] Working principle of the present invention:
[0051] After the hillside landfill 17 is reclaimed as a park, rainwater flows from the intercepting ditch 18 through the drainage ditch 16 under the trail 15 and into the ditch buffer platform 11. The ditch buffer platform 11 in the present invention serves to collect, buffer, and filter water. The filtering function of the ditch buffer platform 11 allows most impurities in the rainwater to be filtered out on the flat roadside, facilitating subsequent maintenance.
[0052] 2. Rainwater is filtered through the ditch buffer platform 11 and enters the upper rapids trough 12. The rainwater flow rate is controlled by the graded drop steel weir 3 and the tile drainage trough 43, which changes from thin to thick. Among them, ① the tile drainage trough 43 is made of short-axis tiles 4, which can effectively deal with the impact of uneven settlement on large structures. ② The pebble buffer zone ditch 1 on both sides of the tile drainage trough 43 can effectively control the influx of impurities in the terrain rainwater, facilitating later maintenance.
[0053] 3. Rainwater flows through the thickest tile drainage trough 43 of the upper rapids trough 12 into the lower rapids trough 13 with the five-level buffer weir 5, achieving the target effect of water flow turning along with the landscape terrain at a controllable rainwater flow rate.
[0054] 4. The rainwater passes through the tile drainage groove 43 which changes from thick to thin in the lower rapids groove 13, so as to accelerate the flow of the latter half of the rainwater, reduce the impurities in the rainwater, and flow into the water collection ditch buffer platform 11, which is convenient for later maintenance.
