[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 13 , the construction method of the underground structure of the first aspect embodiment of the present application, especially a construction method of an underground structure with a soft ground layer and prone to water and sand gushing, the construction method of the underground structure comprises the following steps:

[0042] An underground structure is divided into several caissons, which are constructed using the caisson method. A refrigeration device 4 is pre-buried during the caisson construction. After the caisson is sunk to the designed elevation, the bottom is sealed with underwater concrete 3.

[0043] When the bottom seal underwater concrete 3 reaches the design strength, interlocking U-shaped MJS piles 6 are installed at the junction of the walls of adjacent caissons;

[0044] After the MJS piles 6 have reached their designed strength, the water in the caissons is drained and the cushions and bottom plates 7 of each caisson are constructed;

[0045] Open the freezing device 4 at the junction of the walls of adjacent caissons to freeze and reinforce the soil in the gap between the adjacent caissons. The next step of construction can only be carried out after the thickness and temperature of the frozen body meet the requirements;

[0046] From the bottom plate 7 upwards, the thick portion of the layer plates 8 of each cushion layer is sequentially removed at the location where adjacent caissons meet. The removed portions are reinforced with steel bars and concrete is poured according to the plate reinforcement requirements. Each bottom plate 7 and each layer plate 8 is connected into a whole. Next, the supports between adjacent plates are sequentially removed from top to bottom. The gaps left after the removal of the wall are constructed, and the side walls at the location where adjacent caissons meet are constructed, and the side walls on both sides are connected into a whole.

[0047] Close the freezing device 4 to thaw and complete the construction.

[0048] Specifically, refer to Figures 8 to 11 The well wall where adjacent caissons meet after the thickness of the bottom plate 7 is cut away is the first cutaway portion 9, and the well wall where adjacent caissons meet after the thickness of the layer plate 87 is cut away is the second cutaway portion 11. The whole formed by connecting the bottom plates 7 is the first integral portion 10, and the whole formed by connecting the layer plates 8 is the second integral portion 13. Preferably, the construction methods of the layer plates 8 and the top plate are the same and will not be further described here.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 13 The construction method of the underground structure of the embodiment of the first aspect of the present application divides the well into several caissons, and each caisson is excavated without drainage using the caisson method. During the excavation process, the water level in the well is maintained to prevent soil gushing and sand flow. MJS and freezing are used to perform "U-shaped" reinforcement at the connection position of adjacent caissons to ensure the water-stopping effect. After MJS and freezing reinforcement, each layer of plates 8 is constructed from bottom to top and the well walls within the plate thickness range between the caissons are removed, and the plates of each caisson are connected into a whole, ensuring the rigidity and stability of the structure during construction. After the construction of each layer of plates 8, the well walls are removed from top to bottom. Since there is a gap between the two caissons, it is also necessary to construct the connection position of the side walls of adjacent caissons to connect the side walls on both sides into a whole. Finally, the side walls of each layer are connected into a whole and meet the strength requirements before they can be thawed to ensure the water-stopping effect of the structure during construction at the caisson connection position.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, after the caisson is equally divided into several caissons, the uplift pile 1 is first constructed, and the inclined brace is arranged at the corresponding elevation, wherein the support is arranged as the inclined brace at the corresponding elevation of the original station support, the earth excavation method is undrained excavation, the balance of water and soil pressure inside and outside the caisson is ensured, the caisson is sunk through the segmented excavation in the height direction, the caisson wall is lengthened, and after the excavation reaches the design elevation, the underwater concrete 3 poured on the base is connected with the uplift pile 1, and the cold freezing device 4 is pre-buried in the caisson wall positions on both sides of the abutting surface of adjacent caissons. Specifically, the underwater concrete 3 poured on the base is used to resist the external water and soil pressure, and is connected with the uplift pile 1 to prevent the structure from floating up. In addition, the caisson wall on both sides of the abutting surface of adjacent caissons needs to be pre-buried with U-shaped freezing pipes.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, after the underground structure is equally divided into several caissons with similar length and width, the construction is divided into two stages, the first stage caisson 2 is constructed first, and then the second stage caisson 5 is constructed, wherein each caisson is sequentially numbered, the first stage caisson 2 is the caisson with odd number, and the second stage caisson 5 is the caisson with even number. After the caisson is sunk to the design base elevation, the floating mud at the bottom of the caisson is first removed, the bottom of the caisson is trimmed, the gravel cushion layer is paved, and the underwater concrete 3 with C20 is used for bottom sealing.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, the MJS pile 6 is constructed at the abutting position of the caisson wall of adjacent caissons. The actual pile part of the MJS pile 6 is at a preset depth from the bottom elevation of the foundation pit to below the blade foot. Specifically, the actual pile part of the MJS pile 6 at the abutting position of the caisson wall of adjacent caissons is at a certain depth from the bottom elevation of the foundation pit to below the blade foot, and the actual pile parts of the two outermost MJS piles 6 are at a certain depth from the ground to below the blade foot with the middle MJS pile 6. The construction range of the MJS pile 6 is in the shape of U on the transverse section.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, when the caisson wall at the abutting position of adjacent caissons is sequentially cut from the bottom plate 7 to the plate thickness part of each layer plate 8, each layer of caisson wall is constructed in three parts, the left and right parts are constructed first, and then the middle part is constructed, and the support system is retained during the construction of each layer plate 8. After the strength of the bottom plate 7 meets the requirements, the scaffolding 12 is first erected layer by layer, and then the caisson wall at the abutting position of adjacent caissons of the plate thickness part of each layer plate 8 is cut layer by layer. When the adjacent plate interlayer support and the side wall are sequentially cut from top to bottom, the scaffolding 12 is dismantled layer by layer.

[0054] Specifically, referring to Figure 12 wherein the sequential cutting of the adjacent plate interlayer support and the side wall from top to bottom can be defined as the construction of the structure 14, and each caisson is connected into a whole through the construction of each construction structure 14 of each caisson.

[0055] More specifically, in the construction embodiment, the underground structure is equally divided into five vertical shafts in the length direction, which are No. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 shafts in sequence. The following describes two parts of foundation pit excavation stage and main structure construction stage.

[0056] Foundation pit excavation stage:

[0057] 1) Construct pull-out pile 1.

[0058] 2) Construct the first phase of caissons (1, 3, and 5). Once completed and reaching the required strength, excavate the earth and remove the underlying timbers to allow the caissons to sink. Excavation is performed using a non-draining method. During the sinking process, the water level inside the caisson must be maintained 1-2 meters above the water level outside. During the sinking process, the sinking speed must be adjusted. When the caisson is 0.2 meters above the ground, the caisson is raised.

[0059] 3) After the caisson sinks to the designed base elevation, first remove the floating mud at the bottom of the well, trim the bottom of the pot, lay a gravel cushion layer, and use C20 underwater concrete 3 to seal the bottom.

[0060] 4) Repeat steps 2) and 3) to complete the construction of the second phase of caisson 5 (caissons 2 and 4).

[0061] 5) Construct MJS piles 6 at the junction of adjacent caisson walls. The solid pile part is from the bottom elevation of the foundation pit to a certain depth below the blade foot, and the solid pile parts of the two outermost MJS piles 6 are from the ground to a certain depth below the blade foot and the middle MJS pile 6. The construction range of the MJS pile 6 is U-shaped in the cross section to ensure the water-stopping effect at the joint position.

[0062] Main structure construction phase:

[0063] 1) Drain the water from the five caissons, then create a cushion layer and install the base plate 7. Activate the freezing devices 4 on the walls of adjacent caissons to freeze and consolidate the soil in the gaps between them. Once the required freezing index is reached, cut away the wall where the adjacent caissons meet, then rebar is tied and concrete is poured in accordance with the reinforcement requirements for the base plate 7, connecting the cutout sections to the base plate 7.

[0064] 2) After the strength of the bottom plate 7 reaches the required level, set up the scaffolding 12, cut off the wall of the adjacent caissons where the thickness of the negative second plate is connected, tie the steel bars and pour the concrete for the cut-off part according to the reinforcement requirements of the negative second layer plate 8, and connect it with the negative second layer plate 8 to form a whole. The wall of the well is constructed in three parts, the left and right parts are constructed first, and then the middle part is constructed.

[0065] 3) Repeat step 2) to construct the negative layer slab 8 and the top slab.

[0066] 4) Cut off the 8 supports between the top plate and the negative first floor plate and the well wall at the junction of adjacent caissons, and construct the side walls at the junction of adjacent caissons to connect the side walls on both sides into a whole.

[0067] 5) Repeat step 4) to construct the second and first basement floors.

[0068] 6) Close the freezing equipment to thaw, complete the construction.

[0069] The method divides the underground structure into several caissons in length direction, adopts caisson method to construct in two periods, uses undrained excavation to ensure the balance of water and soil pressure inside and outside the caisson, uses MJS pile 6 to reinforce and freeze to reinforce the joint position of adjacent caissons to ensure the water stopping effect of the connection construction between the subsequent caissons and the caissons, does not remove the support when constructing each layer plate 8 of the main structure, removes each layer of the well wall and the support from top to bottom after the construction of each layer plate 8, and constructs the side wall at the joint position of adjacent caissons, so that the side wall is connected into a whole, ensures that the structure has sufficient rigidity, and the application is suitable for the case that the bottom of the enclosure structure is located in soft stratum, can avoid the risk of water and sand gushing, and ensures the construction safety.

[0070] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily, and to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are not described, however, as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, they should be considered as the scope of the present application.

[0071] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present application.
