Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of foundation pit well point dewatering, in particular to a method for treating water gushing from an unsealed exploration hole foundation pit. Background Art

[0002] In foundation pit projects in soft soil areas with abundant groundwater, dewatering designs are often carried out to facilitate earthwork excavation and prevent sudden surges at the bottom of the foundation pit. For example, water-stop curtains, drainage wells, and pressure relief wells are installed, and dewatering is carried out as needed. When designing the pressure relief wells, the designers will fully consider the weight of the aquitard at the bottom of the foundation pit on the confined water. The dewatering requirements of the pressure relief wells are based on the principle of not penetrating the top plate of the aquitard and dewatering as needed. The implicit premise of this principle is that the top plate of the aquitard is intact and there is no potential hydraulic connection channel between the confined water layer and the bottom of the foundation pit. If there are missed, unsealed, or ineffectively sealed exploration holes on the site, they will serve as potential hydraulic connection channels between the bottom of the foundation pit and the confined water layer, becoming a potential safety hazard for foundation pit excavation. It often occurs suddenly and catches people off guard. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to design a method for treating water gushing from foundation pits of unsealed exploration holes in response to the deficiencies of the existing technology. The method adopts a filter layer in combination with local well point pipe dewatering to achieve local drainage of pressurized water gushing within a certain range and depth around the foundation pits of unsealed exploration holes. The method specifically includes: excavation and temporary drainage of hidden dangers, burying of well point pipes, setting of filter layers and well point auxiliary dewatering. It can quickly resolve safety hazards and is a powerful auxiliary dewatering method for foundation pits with potential upper and lower hydraulic communication channels. The method is convenient in construction, has fast dewatering, and good treatment effect, and has certain prospects for promotion and application.

[0004] The specific technical solution for implementing the present invention is: a method for treating water gushing from an unsealed exploration hole foundation pit, which is characterized by using an inverted filter layer in combination with a local well point pipe dewatering method to achieve local drainage and drainage of water gushing from the unsealed exploration hole foundation pit, specifically comprising the following steps:

[0005] Step a: During the excavation process, if water begins to gush from an unsealed exploration hole, suspend the excavation of the foundation pit at that location and immediately organize the laying of well point pipes;

[0006] Step b: Installing a well point pipe A in the unsealed exploration hole for draining open water, and installing four well point pipes B in the soil surrounding the unsealed exploration hole for draining the soil. The well point pipes B are installed at the four corners of a square with a side length of 1.5m centered on the unsealed exploration hole; the well point pipes A and B are both 5m long and made of φ57×3.5 steel pipes, with the top exposed 30cm above the excavation surface. The well point pipe B is entirely provided with a filter pipe section from 70cm below the excavation surface to the bottom of the pipe, and the well point pipe A is provided with a filter pipe section within 1m of the bottom; the filter pipe section is wrapped with 80-mesh copper wire mesh;

[0007] Step c: Connect the B well point pipe and the A well point pipe to the drainage main pipe with drainage branch pipes, and connect the drainage main pipe to the vacuum pump;

[0008] Step d: Start the vacuum pump to pre-precipitate water in the 2m×2m area around the unsealed exploration hole;

[0009] Step e: When the water level drops to 1m below the excavation surface, use a small excavator to dig a 50cm deep filtration collection pit in a square area with a side length of 2.0m, centered on the unsealed exploration hole. Quickly backfill the filtration collection pit with bagged graded gravel to the excavation surface.

[0010] Step f: Continue to dewater the 2m×2m area around the unsealed exploration hole until the water level drops to 3m below the original excavation surface;

[0011] Step g: Resume the excavation of the foundation pit at that location until it reaches 1m above the existing water level in the unsealed exploration hole;

[0012] Step h: Remove the B and A well point pipes, and re-bury the B and A well point pipes in the unsealed exploration hole according to step a, and repeat steps b to g until the water level in the 2m×2m area around the unsealed exploration hole drops to 2m below the foundation pit;

[0013] i. Step: Use small excavators to dig a square concrete plugging pit with a side length of 2.0m, with the unsealed exploration hole as the center. The depth of the concrete plugging pit should be calculated for the hydraulic balance of the pressurized water. Quickly remove the B well point pipe and the A well point pipe. Consider the dock bottom plate condition of the foundation pit and promptly fill with quick-setting micro-expansion concrete for plugging.

It can realize well point dewatering more quickly and solve safety hazards. It is a powerful auxiliary dewatering method for foundation pit dewatering with potential upper and lower hydraulic communication channels, and has certain prospects for promotion and application.
