Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of drilling platforms, in particular to a combined water drilling platform system and a construction method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of bridge construction, the increase in bridge span leads to the increase in stress and component size of bridge structure. Foundation construction is always a key and difficult project in bridge engineering construction, and is also a time limit control point in engineering construction.
[0003] The traditional water drilling platform system usually adopts a structure of steel pipe pile + Bailey beam. It has good adaptability for small-scale and shallow-water foundation, but has poor adaptability when the foundation scale is large or the water depth is deep. The main aspects are as follows:

[0005] Second, the drilling platform in the range of pile cap only serves the drilling pile construction. After the drilling pile construction is completed, the platform must be completely removed before cofferdam bottom sealing construction can be performed. The general service period of the platform in this area is 6-8 months, the installation period is generally 2-3 months, and the removal period is about 1 month. The installation and removal period is long, and there is a risk that a large number of steel pipe piles cannot be pulled out. SUMMARY

[0029] In some embodiments, the construction of the second drilling platform, based on the first drilling platform, involves driving multiple steel casings along the pier area on the riverbed or seabed, and installing an integral steel structure on the multiple steel casings to complete the construction of the second drilling platform, including the following steps:
[0030] Install a steel casing guide frame on the first drilling platform, insert the steel casing located in the half area of the side span of the pier cap, hoist the half-width integral steel structure of the side span to form the second drilling platform on the half side span, and carry out the drilling pile construction.

[0055] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0056] This invention provides a combined underwater drilling platform system that solves the technical problems of existing underwater drilling platform systems, such as large engineering workload, long construction period, and high cost.
[0057] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a combined underwater drilling platform system, including: a first drilling platform 1 and a second drilling platform 2.
[0058] The first drilling platform 1 includes: multiple steel pipe piles 11 and Bailey beam structure 12. The multiple steel pipe piles 11 are inserted into the riverbed or seabed and are arranged around the foundation. The Bailey beam structure 12 is installed on the multiple steel pipe piles 11.
[0059] The second drilling platform 2 includes multiple steel casings 21 and an integral steel structure 22. The multiple steel casings 21 are inserted into the riverbed or seabed and are arranged within the support platform area. The integral steel structure 22 is mounted on the multiple steel casings 21. Optionally, the integral steel structure 22 can be supported on the multiple steel casings 21 by casing brackets.
[0060] Specifically, see Figure 1 As shown, if the foundation size is large, the first drilling platform 1 can divide the foundation into two areas, and the corresponding second drilling platform 2 is also divided into two areas.
[0061] The combined underwater drilling platform system in this embodiment of the invention divides the entire system into a first drilling platform and a second drilling platform. The first and second drilling platforms employ different structural forms: the first drilling platform uses a steel pipe pile and Bailey beam structure, while the second drilling platform uses a steel casing and an integral steel structure. This design better adapts to different functional and lifecycle requirements, significantly reducing the amount of platform engineering work. Furthermore, the second drilling platform in the pier area uses a steel casing as its support structure, eliminating the need for temporary support steel pipe piles and thus eliminating the need for driving and removing temporary steel pipe piles. This simplifies the construction process, shortens the construction period, and the large diameter and high load-bearing capacity of the steel casing allow it to adapt to greater water depths.
[0062] As an optional implementation, in one embodiment of the invention, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the combined underwater drilling platform system also includes a steel casing guide frame 3, which is mounted on the Bailey beam structure 12 to drive multiple steel casings 21. The steel casing guide frame 3 moves on the first drilling platform 1, continuously driving the steel casings 21 until... Figure 1 After all the steel casings 21 in the two bearing areas of the first drilling platform 1 are driven in, the integral steel structure 22 is installed on the multiple steel casings 21 to complete the construction of the second drilling platform 2.
[0063] Further, see Figure 4 As shown, the steel casing guide frame 3 includes a fixed truss 31 and a movable guide frame 32. The fixed truss 31 is used to support the Bailey beam structure 12. The movable guide frame 32 is mounted on the fixed truss 31 and can slide and be fixed along the fixed truss 31. When the steel casing 21 is driven in, the movable guide frame 32 guides the steel casing 21. The structure is simple and the construction is convenient. Figure 1 As shown, since the first drilling platform 1 divides the foundation into two areas, two steel casing guide frames 3 can be set up, and the two areas can be constructed simultaneously, improving construction efficiency.
[0064] As an optional implementation, in one embodiment of the invention, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5As shown, the integral steel structure 22 includes multiple connected longitudinal bridge-oriented steel sections 221 and multiple transverse bridge-oriented steel sections 222. Two longitudinal bridge-oriented steel sections 221 and two transverse bridge-oriented steel sections 222 form a rectangular frame to connect with a steel casing 21. The spacing between two adjacent longitudinal bridge-oriented steel sections 221 or two adjacent transverse bridge-oriented steel sections 222 can be increased by 600-800mm based on the outer diameter of the steel casing 21. Depending on the hoisting capacity, the integral steel structure 22 can be divided into several large sections for installation. The integral steel structure 22 can be factory-manufactured and hoisted in large sections, resulting in high construction efficiency and better construction quality.
[0065] Further, see Figure 5 As shown, each of the longitudinal bridge steel sections 221 and each of the transverse bridge steel sections 222 is provided with a support stiffening plate 223 at the connection with the steel casing 21 to ensure the structural strength of the connection.
[0066] As an optional implementation, in one embodiment of the invention, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 As shown, the first drilling platform 1 further includes: multiple connecting rod systems 13, one of the connecting rod systems 13 connecting two steel pipe piles 11 to ensure the structural strength and stability of the multiple steel pipe piles 11.
[0067] As an optional implementation, in one embodiment of the invention, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 As shown, the first drilling platform 1 further includes a distribution beam 14 and a bridge deck 15. The distribution beam 14 is located on top of the multiple steel pipe piles 11 and is used to install the Bailey bridge structure 12. The bridge deck 15 is located on the Bailey bridge structure 12 to form a ring passage around the pier cap, facilitating construction by workers.
[0068] This invention provides a construction method for a combined underwater drilling platform system, comprising the following steps:
[0069] Multiple steel pipe piles 11 are driven into the riverbed or seabed around the foundation, and Bailey beam structure 12 is installed on the multiple steel pipe piles 11 to complete the construction of the first drilling platform 1.
[0070] Specifically, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, multiple steel pipe piles 11 are driven into the riverbed or seabed around the pier cap, and the steel pipe piles 11 are connected by a connecting rod system 13. A distribution beam 14 and a Bailey beam structure 12 are installed sequentially on the top of the steel pipe piles 11, and a bridge deck 15 is installed on the Bailey beam structure 12 to form a ring passage around the pier cap.
[0071] Based on the first drilling platform, multiple steel casings 21 are driven into the riverbed or seabed along the pier area, and an integral steel structure 22 is installed on the multiple steel casings 21 to complete the construction of the second drilling platform 2.
[0072] Specifically, the construction of the second drilling platform 2, based on the first drilling platform, involves driving multiple steel casings 21 along the bearing platform area on the riverbed or seabed, and installing an integral steel structure 22 on the multiple steel casings 21 to complete the construction, including the following steps:
[0073] A steel casing guide frame 3 is installed on the first drilling platform 1. Steel casings 21 located in the half-span area of the pier cap are driven in. A crane barge 5 can be used to lift and drive the steel casings 21. The steel casings 21 include supporting and non-supporting steel casings. The half-span integral steel structure 22 is hoisted to form the second drilling platform 2 in the half-span area, and bored pile construction is then carried out. (See attached...) Figure 8-9 As shown.
[0074] Continue using the steel casing guide frame 3 to install the steel casing 21 in the half-area of the main span, hoist the integral steel structure 22 of the half-width of the main span to form the second drilling platform 2 in the half-area of the main span, and carry out bored pile construction to complete the construction of the second drilling platform 2. See [link to documentation]. Figure 10 and Figure 1 As shown. By constructing the steel casing 21 first and then hoisting the integral steel structure 22, the insertion of the steel casing 21 and the manufacturing of the integral steel structure 22 can be carried out simultaneously. The steel casing guide frame 3 includes a fixed truss 31 and a movable guide frame 32. The fixed truss 31 is erected on the Bailey beam structure 12, and the movable guide frame 32 is located on the fixed truss 31. The movable guide frame 32 can slide and be fixed along the fixed truss 31. When the steel casing 21 is inserted, the movable guide frame 32 guides the steel casing 21. The steel casing guide frame 3 can be moved once to meet the need for inserting multiple steel casings 21, thus improving the insertion efficiency of the steel casing 21.
[0075] The construction method of the combined underwater drilling platform system in this embodiment of the invention divides the entire underwater drilling platform system into a first drilling platform and a second drilling platform. The first and second drilling platforms adopt different structural forms. The first drilling platform adopts a structure of steel pipe piles and Bailey beams, while the second drilling platform adopts a structure of steel casing and integral steel structure. This structure can better adapt to the requirements of different functions and service cycles, and significantly reduce the amount of platform engineering. In addition, the second drilling platform in the pier area uses a steel casing as the support structure of the second drilling platform, eliminating the need for temporary support steel pipe piles, and thus eliminating the need for temporary steel pipe pile driving and extraction operations. The construction process is simpler, and the large diameter and high load-bearing capacity of the steel casing can adapt to greater water depths.
[0076] As an optional implementation, in one embodiment of the invention, after the construction of the second drilling platform 2 is completed, the method of driving multiple steel casings 21 along the bearing platform range on the riverbed or seabed based on the first drilling platform, installing an integral steel structure 22 on the multiple steel casings 21, and completing the construction of the second drilling platform 2 further includes the following steps:
[0077] Hoist cofferdam structure 4. After the bored pile construction is completed, cofferdam structure 4 will be lowered to the design elevation by filling it with water. Using the second drilling platform 2 as the cofferdam bottom sealing platform, the cofferdam wall chambers and bottom sealing concrete will be poured to complete the cofferdam construction. The second drilling platform 2 will be dismantled, while the first drilling platform 1 will be retained as a passageway for the main pier and superstructure construction. See also... Figure 11-12 As shown, the cofferdam structure 4 can be lifted using a gondola 5.
[0078] This invention allows for the large-segment hoisting of the cofferdam structure 4 after the partial dismantling of the outer perimeter of the second drilling platform 2. In other words, after the bored pile construction is completed, the second drilling platform 2 can be directly used as the cofferdam bottom sealing platform, eliminating the need for a separate cofferdam bottom sealing platform; thus, the same structure achieves multiple functions.
