Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of concrete spraying technology, and more specifically, this invention relates to a non-contact method and apparatus for testing the rebound rate of sprayed concrete. Background Technology
[0002] Shotcrete is a type of concrete that uses compressed air to spray a mixture of cement, sand, and gravel onto a target surface, where it quickly sets and hardens. It boasts numerous advantages, including high construction efficiency, simple process, excellent support and reinforcement effects, strong adaptability, and significant economic and technical benefits, making it a crucial tunnel support measure in tunnel engineering. However, shotcrete generally exhibits a high rebound rate during construction, leading to significant waste of raw materials, impacting construction progress, increasing the cost of waste concrete disposal, and raising environmental impact.
[0003] The paper "Determination of Rebound of Shotcrete in Tunnels Based on 3D Laser Scanning" uses a ground-based 3D laser scanning instrument to measure the volume V of concrete sprayed onto the tunnel. j , using V j The total volume V of shotcrete during construction 总 The ratio of the two values is used as the rebound rate. This method has the following problems: (1) The volume of the same mass of concrete changes before and after construction, so the volume is difficult to represent the amount of concrete used; and the mixing plant usually weighs the raw materials to prepare concrete according to weight, making it difficult to obtain the V value. 总 (2) This method assumes that the volume of shotcrete on the excavation face between a certain mileage is equal to the sum of the areas of shotcrete on N cross sections. Therefore, when the cross section spacing is small, there are more point cloud cross sections to be processed, and the workload of the office work is large. When the cross section spacing is large, it cannot represent the true situation of shotcrete in the mileage section. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a non-contact method for testing the rebound rate of shotcrete, aiming to improve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] This invention is implemented as follows: a non-contact method for testing the rebound rate of shotcrete, the method specifically including the following steps:
[0006] S1. Obtain laser point cloud 1 by scanning the tunnel wall of the section to be constructed before concrete spraying using lidar;
[0007] S2 performs shotcrete construction and simultaneously prepares density measurement specimens. The density value ρ of the shotcrete is measured based on the density measurement specimens.
[0008] S3. Use lidar to scan the tunnel wall of the section to be constructed after concrete spraying to obtain a laser point cloud 2;
[0009] S4. After downsampling the laser point cloud 1 and laser point cloud 2, laser point cloud 3 and laser point cloud 4 are formed.
[0010] S5. Model laser point cloud 3 and laser point cloud 4 respectively. The difference in volume between the two models is the volume v of the shotcrete attached to the tunnel wall. Then calculate the rebound rate of the shotcrete.
[0011] Furthermore, the downsampling method for laser point cloud 1 is as follows:
[0012] 1) Project the coordinates in laser point cloud 1 to the world coordinate system and import the tunnel design outline into the world coordinate system;
[0013] 2) Read the coordinates of all points in the laser point cloud 1 in the world coordinate system, traverse and retrieve all points in the laser point cloud 1, and set each point P... i Project the image onto the tunnel design outline to obtain point P. i Projection point P on the tunnel design outline i The curve length x to the left arch foot of the tunnel i Point P i Tunnel mileage y i Point P i Minimum distance z to the tunnel design profile surface i ;
[0014] 3) Establish a spatial rectangular coordinate system and generate point P. i Mapping point Q i (x i ,y i ,z i ), traverse all points P i This ultimately forms the point cloud Q;
[0015] 4) Traverse all points Q in the point cloud Q i (x i ,y i ,z i Remove |z from the point cloud Q. i Points ≥ z0, where z0 is the set threshold;
[0016] 5) Thin the point cloud Q and store the remaining valid points in the array {Q}. i}
[0017] 6) Filter from laser point cloud 1 the points that match the array {Q} i Q at each point i Corresponding point P i Delete the remaining points and obtain the downsampled laser point cloud 1.
[0018] Furthermore, prior to step S1, the following is also included:
[0019] S1. Pre-construction of shotcrete: Prepare a small amount of concrete for trial transport and trial spraying before formal construction.
[0020] Furthermore, the specific preparation process of the density measurement specimen is as follows:
[0021] The concrete slab test mold is placed at an angle along the side wall of the tunnel section to be constructed. When the wet spraying machine is in a stable operating state, it is sprayed onto the concrete slab test mold to form a concrete specimen.
[0022] Furthermore, multiple large concrete slab test molds were prepared and placed at different positions along the tunnel sidewall of the section to be constructed.
[0023] Furthermore, the specific method for determining the density value ρ of the sprayed concrete is as follows:
[0024] The density of each concrete specimen is tested, and the average density of all concrete specimens is the density value of the sprayed concrete.
[0025] Furthermore, the specific formula for calculating the rebound rate k of shotcrete is as follows:
[0026]
[0027] Where m is the total mass of the concrete before spraying, ρ is the density of the concrete after spraying, and v is the volume of the sprayed concrete.
[0028] Furthermore, before step S0 and after step S1, the following steps are also included:
[0029] Concrete preparation and weighing were carried out, and the total mass of the concrete before leaving the station was recorded as m.
[0030] This invention is implemented as follows: a non-contact shotcrete rebound rate testing device, the device comprising:
[0031] A processor installed on a drone equipped with a lidar and communicating with the lidar;
[0032] Before concrete spraying, the drone is controlled to scan the tunnel wall of the section to be constructed along a set route to obtain laser point cloud 1. After concrete spraying, the drone is controlled to scan the tunnel wall of the construction section along a set route to obtain laser point cloud 2. Laser point cloud 1 and laser point cloud 2 are sent to the processor, which obtains the rebound rate of the sprayed concrete based on the above-mentioned non-contact shotcrete rebound rate test method.
[0033] The non-contact shotcrete rebound rate testing method provided by this invention has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0034] (1) The present invention uses three-dimensional laser scanning technology for non-contact measurement, eliminating the need to lay a canvas for weighing;
[0035] (2) The present invention calculates the rebound rate of shotcrete based on the mass ratio of concrete, rather than the volume ratio of concrete, thus avoiding the influence of volume change of the same mass of concrete before and after spraying.
[0036] (3) The new method for downsampling tunnel point clouds proposed in this invention first converts the measured point cloud P of the cylindrical tunnel into a new point cloud Q that is easy to process, according to the principle that the minimum distance from each point to the tunnel design outline remains unchanged. Then, the new point cloud Q is downsampled by the method of densifying irregular triangular mesh. Finally, redundant points and noise points are removed from the measured point cloud P according to the one-to-one mapping relationship, thereby improving the measurement accuracy of shotcrete volume and thus improving the calculation accuracy of shotcrete rebound rate.
