[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0023] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0024] The downstream traffic structure of a concrete dam needs to meet functional requirements, minimize construction interference, and have a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Due to the large volume of concrete poured in a concrete dam, if construction is carried out with the same precision control as large-volume concrete, it is difficult to achieve ideal construction accuracy, often resulting in a poor appearance of the downstream traffic structure that requires secondary adjustments. Conversely, if construction is carried out with the same precision control as downstream traffic, it will affect the pouring speed of the large-volume concrete. Currently, commonly used construction methods mainly include pre-embedded reinforcing bars and subsequent on-site casting to form the downstream traffic structure, and the use of precast concrete beams and slabs spliced together to form the downstream traffic structure. Both methods have certain drawbacks. The former requires a considerable amount of complex scaffolding to support the higher locations of the traffic platform, resulting in poor economy and safety. The latter has poor overall integrity, rigidity, and seismic performance, and for arch dams, the precast dimensions need to be adjusted according to the dam surface conditions, increasing the difficulty of the construction process.
[0025] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies in terms of inconsistent control precision and construction methods, there is an urgent need to provide a new type of downstream traffic bridge with high precision, convenient construction, good stability, and good aesthetic quality.
[0026] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a traffic structure downstream of an arch dam according to an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 1 The arch dam 100 is made of cast concrete, and the traffic structure behind the arch dam includes multiple I-beams 200, tie rods 300, and patterned steel plates 400.
[0027] Multiple I-beams 200 are arranged at predetermined intervals along the circumferential direction of the arc surface of the arch dam 100. Each I-beam 200 is embedded radially in the dam body of the arch dam 100 at a predetermined elevation. Part of the length of each I-beam 200 is embedded in the dam body of the arch dam 100, and the remaining length is cantilevered. The embedded length L1 of each I-beam 200 is greater than or equal to the cantilever length L2. The embedded part of each I-beam 200 in the dam body is fixedly connected to the concrete pouring surface.
[0028] To ensure precise positioning of the I-beams, each I-beam 200 is pre-embedded with at least two tie rods 300 within the dam body. The two tie rods 300 are arranged on both sides of the I-beam 200, with one end of each tie rod 300 connected to the I-beam 200 and the other end of each tie rod 300 connected to the exposed reinforcing bars on the concrete pouring surface.
[0029] The patterned steel plate 400 is laid on multiple pre-embedded I-beams 200, and the lower surface of the patterned steel plate 400 is fully welded to the multiple I-beams 200.
[0030] In the aforementioned implementation process, the arch-dam type downstream traffic structure, combining I-beams and checkered steel plates, not only satisfies the requirements of being lightweight and aesthetically pleasing but also is suitable for downstream dam surface inspection. Most importantly, in hydropower engineering construction, its integration with concrete pouring accelerates construction progress and saves on project investment. This application utilizes a lightweight steel pedestrian bridge to address the problems of poor appearance and pouring quality, as well as the inconvenience of cantilever support construction in existing downstream traffic structures. It employs a pre-embedded I-beam construction method and uses tie rods for elevation and horizontal positioning, achieving rapid formation of the downstream traffic structure. This type of downstream traffic structure is lightweight, safe, economical, and aesthetically pleasing, offering advantages such as good appearance quality, reliable safety, and convenient construction.
[0031] In one implementation scheme, in conjunction with the downstream structure of the arch dam 100, two tie rods 300 connected to each I-beam 200 are symmetrically arranged, with each tie rod 300 having an angle of 30 degrees with the I-beam 200. The two tie rods 300 and each I-beam 200 form a stable spatial component, so that the stability of the I-beam meets the requirements of later construction.
[0032] In one implementation scheme, to meet the traffic intensity requirements downstream of the arch dam 100, the I-beams 200 adopt the I20 specification, and multiple I-beams 200 are arranged at circumferential intervals of 1.5m along the arc surface of the arch dam 100.
[0033] In one implementation, to ensure the shared load-bearing capacity of the traffic structure, an angle steel 500 is also included. The patterned steel plate 400 is welded to the I-beam 200 via the angle steel 500. The angle steel 500 is fixed on the centerline of the lower surface of the patterned steel plate 400. The angle steel 500 is fully welded to the patterned steel plate 400 and the I-beam 200. The thickness of the patterned steel plate 400 is 4mm, and the dimensions of the angle steel 500 are 50mm × 50mm × 4mm.
[0034] In one embodiment, the patterned steel plate 400 comprises multiple pieces, each patterned steel plate 400 having a length of 1.5m, and the bottom middle area of each patterned steel plate 400 being fully welded to the I-beam 200 via angle steel.
[0035] In one implementation scheme, to ensure the safety of inspections downstream of the dam, a guardrail 600 is also included; see [link / reference]. Figure 2 The railing 600 is located on the downstream side of the patterned steel plate 400. The railing 600 is 1200mm high and includes multiple posts and handrails. The posts are made of φ50mm stainless steel pipes with a wall thickness of 2.5mm. Multiple posts are welded to the patterned steel plate 400 along the circumference of the arc surface. The spacing between the multiple posts is 2000mm. The handrails are arranged along the height of the posts.
[0036] In one embodiment, the handrail includes a φ60mm stainless steel tube and a φ20mm stainless steel tube. The φ60mm stainless steel tube is set at the top of the column and has a wall thickness of 3mm. Two layers of φ20mm stainless steel tubes are evenly arranged in the middle area of the column and have a wall thickness of 2.5mm.
[0037] In one implementation, to prevent steel corrosion and improve structural durability, the surfaces of multiple I-beams 200 and checkered steel plates 400 are coated with Sudan Red anti-rust paint. Specifically, the surfaces of the I-beams 200 and checkered steel plates 400 are cleaned and then coated with two coats of Sudan Red anti-rust paint.
[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
