Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an integrated device and method for measuring joint morphology anisotropy and size effect, mainly used for measuring the surface undulation morphology of joints, and applicable to geotechnical engineering and related fields. Background Technology
[0002] Roughness is a crucial factor affecting the shear strength of joints. To obtain joint morphology parameters, it is necessary to measure the surface undulations of the joints. Commonly used devices for measuring the surface undulations of rock mass joints include: a profile curve instrument (CN92226138.5), a rock mass joint surface profile mapping instrument (CN201520404878.1), and a portable rock mass structural surface roughness profile measuring instrument (CN202011514550.7). However, these devices can only measure the surface undulations in a single direction and cannot measure the surface undulations of joints from all directions. They fail to reflect the anisotropic characteristics of joints, and existing devices cannot achieve continuous measurement of a series of dimensions, nor can they reflect the size effect characteristics of joints.
[0003] Therefore, the main shortcomings of existing devices are: 1) They can only measure the surface undulation morphology of joints in a single direction, and cannot achieve omnidirectional measurement of surface undulation morphology, nor can they obtain the anisotropic characteristics of joints; 2) The measurement size is limited, and it is impossible to achieve a series of continuous size measurements, thus failing to obtain the size effect characteristics of joints; 3) Existing devices cannot guarantee the perpendicularity of the drawing system, resulting in low measurement accuracy. Therefore, in order to achieve omnidirectional and continuous size measurements of the surface undulation morphology of joints, it is urgent to invent an integrated device for measuring the anisotropy and size effect of joint morphology.

Finally, assemble the eight paper-carrying disk expansion parts 5-2 of the drawing expansion system 5 around the paper-carrying disk 5-1.
[0092] 18) Repeat steps 12) and 13) above to complete the installation of joint B and the measurement of the surface undulation morphology in six directions (10°, 32°, 90°, 155°, 200°, 330°) or any other specified direction.
[0093] 19) Remove the measured joint B and the drawn drawing from the bearing system 4 and the drawing expansion system 5 respectively, and complete the measurement of the surface undulation morphology of joint B in six directions.
[0094] 20) Select the joint C with the largest size as the third measurement sample, according to the order of the measured joint size from smallest to largest.
[0095] 21) The external dimensions of the frame system 1 are re-determined based on the dimensions of the selected joint C to be tested. The dimensions of the selected joint C are 98cm × 100cm, so the external dimensions of the frame system 1 are 150cm in length, 150cm in width, and 80cm in height. The internal dimensions of the frame system 1 used to place the joint C are 110cm × 110cm.
[0096] 22) Assemble the frame system 1, the load-bearing system 4, and the drawing expansion system 5 separately to ensure their dimensions meet the requirements of the joint C to be measured. Install sixteen threaded straight rods 1-3 onto the existing frame system 1 using a threaded sleeve connector 1-2. Then assemble the eight fan-shaped ring assemblies 4-3 of the load-bearing system 4 around the fan-shaped assembly 4-2, and assemble the eight fan-shaped ring expansion pieces 5-3 of the drawing expansion system 5 around the paper-carrying disc expansion piece 5-2.
[0097] 23) Repeat steps 12) and 13) above to complete the installation of joint C and the measurement of surface undulations at six directions (0°, 60°, 100°, 166°, 230°, 344°) or any other specified direction.
[0098] 24) Remove the measured joint C and the drawn drawing from the bearing system 4 and the drawing expansion system 5 respectively, and complete the measurement of the surface undulation morphology of joint C in six directions.
[0099] 25) After completing the test, dismantle the device in the following order: chassis driven transmission system 6, load-bearing system 4, drawing system 3, slide rail system 2, drawing expansion system 5, and frame system 1. First, dismantle the chassis driven transmission system 6 and load-bearing system 4, then dismantle the drawing system 3 and slide rail system 2, then dismantle the drawing expansion system 5, and finally dismantle the frame system 1 and the remaining components. 26) Obtain the morphological parameter values of the measured joints by comparing the surface morphology curves of the measured joints from multiple orientations with typical two-dimensional profiles obtained through the empirical value method, and draw anisotropic rose diagrams of the joint morphological parameters for joints A, B, and C. The morphological curves of joint A at six orientations (0°, 28°, 92°, 166°, 222°, 354°) were compared with typical two-dimensional profiles using an empirical value method to obtain the six joint morphological parameter values of joint A. Then, an anisotropic rose diagram of the joint morphological parameters of joint A was drawn based on the obtained joint morphological parameter values. This process was repeated to draw anisotropic rose diagrams of the joint morphological parameters of joint B at 10°, 32°, 90°, 155°, 200°, 330° and joint C at 0°, 60°, 100°, 166°, 230°, 344°.
[0100] 27) By comparing the surface morphology curves of the measured joints at different sizes with typical two-dimensional profiles obtained from the empirical method, the joint morphology parameter values of the measured joints are obtained, and size effect rose diagrams of joint morphology parameters for joints A, B, and C are plotted. Various concentric circular sampling windows of different sizes, ranging from 10cm*10cm to 100cm*100cm, are used, increasing at fixed intervals of 10cm, to sample the morphology curves of joint A in six directions. Then, according to the empirical method, the joint morphology parameter values of joint A at different sizes are obtained by comparing with typical two-dimensional profiles. The size effect rose diagram of joint morphology parameters for joint A is then plotted based on the obtained joint morphology parameter values. This process is repeated to plot the size effect rose diagrams of joint morphology parameters for joints B and C. 28) Based on the anisotropic rose diagram and size effect rose diagram of the measured joint morphology parameters, the stability and strength parameter thresholds of the rock mass in each direction of the project are determined. The Barton-Bandis model, which empirically estimates the shear strength of rock mass structural planes, is used to input the joint morphology parameter values of joints A, B, and C in the joint morphology parameter anisotropic rose diagram and the joint morphology parameter size effect rose diagram into the shear strength estimation formula of the Barton-Bandis model to obtain the corresponding shear strength. Then, the stability and strength parameter thresholds of the rock mass in each direction of the project are determined.
