Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a construction method for an anti-seepage cofferdam structure combined with interception and drainage, and is applicable to the technical field of cofferdam construction. Background Art
[0002] Currently, the application of cofferdam technology in water conservancy project construction mostly occurs within reservoirs or rivers, with low-lying terrain and concentrated construction areas. During the construction period, drainage interception requirements are high, and the cofferdam must meet the requirements of water retention and anti-seepage during the construction period. On the one hand, the layout of intercepting drainage ditches is important. During site layout, intercepting drainage ditches are often arranged on high terrain on mountain ridges. Unless special circumstances occur, water flows by gravity to the reservoir outside the weir. For large-scale water collection, forced drainage measures are used, and water must bypass the cofferdam. If the cofferdam is located at a higher elevation than the inner and outer contours of the site, it is difficult to achieve self-drainage requirements. This not only makes construction difficult and expensive, but also increases the land area and the number of seedlings to be relocated. On the other hand, the choice of cofferdam type is also important. Cofferdam construction generally adopts two forms, double-row Larsen steel sheet piles and earth-rock cofferdams, which are more widely used. The former is filled with clay as a seepage-proof and water-stopping measure. Construction requires the establishment of an overwater construction platform, which is difficult to construct and has a long construction period. It cannot be implemented under geological conditions such as rounded gravel and shallow bedrock. The latter uses local materials and makes full use of excavated waste as cofferdam filling. It has the advantages of simple structure, convenient construction, easy dismantling and low project cost. However, the filling materials of its main earth-rock cofferdam basically have the problem of large permeability coefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0027] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through examples. The following examples are intended to explain the present invention but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[0028] This embodiment describes a construction method for an anti-seepage cofferdam structure combined with an intercepting and draining system. This method is used to construct a cofferdam body 1 within a reservoir, effectively draining water from the reservoir bank. The cofferdam body 1 is located within the reservoir, with an intercepting and draining ditch 2 arranged on the reservoir bank. The outlet of the intercepting and draining ditch 2 is located at a higher elevation than the elevation H5 of the top of the cofferdam body 1. A vertically arranged working well 3 is connected to the outlet of the intercepting and draining pipe. A water culvert 4 is connected to the outlet of the working well 3, which extends through the cofferdam body 1. Runoff from the reservoir bank is discharged into the reservoir through the intercepting and draining ditch 2, the working well 3, and the water culvert 4, preventing runoff from the reservoir bank from flowing into the cofferdam area and affecting drainage within the cofferdam.
[0029] In this embodiment, the cross section of the intercepting and draining ditch 2 is trapezoidal, and has good water storage capacity and pressure bearing capacity.
[0030] In this embodiment, the working well 3 is a square reinforced concrete structure. The working well 3 is connected to the intercepting drainage ditch 2 at a certain distance from the end of the intercepting drainage ditch 2. In this way, a buffer zone is formed at the end of the intercepting drainage ditch 2, which has a force-dissipating effect on the water flow in the intercepting drainage ditch 2. A filter body is set in the working well 3, and a supporting screen plate 3-1 is set in the working well 3 above and below the filter body. The filter body has a fine aggregate layer 3-2, a coarse aggregate layer 3-3, and a fine aggregate layer 3-2 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The supporting screen plate 3-1 is set between the fine aggregate layer 3-2 and the coarse aggregate layer 3-3. In this way, the water flow entering the water box culvert 4 in the cofferdam body 1 from the intercepting drainage ditch 2 is filtered, preventing impurities from clogging the water box culvert 4 in the cofferdam body 1 and making it inconvenient to repair. The supporting screen plate 3-1 provides good support for the filter body.
[0031] In this embodiment, a water culvert 4 is connected to the outlet of the working well 3 , and the bottom of the working well 3 is lower than the connection between the working well 3 and the water culvert 4 , which also plays a certain force dissipation role.
[0032] In this embodiment, a water culvert 4 is installed within and through the cofferdam 1. Its outlet extends outward from the slope of the cofferdam 1, facing the reservoir. This allows runoff from the reservoir bank to be discharged into the reservoir via the intercepting drainage ditch 2, the working well 3, and the water culvert 4. This prevents runoff from flowing into the cofferdam and affecting drainage within the cofferdam.
[0033] In this embodiment, the water culvert 4 adopts a square reinforced concrete structure. An inward-concave notch is provided at the non-filled interface of the water culvert 4 to prevent damage to the water culvert 4 under pressure. At the same time, clay is filled in the inward-concave notch of the water culvert 4 to form a clay seal layer. The clay seal layer 4-2 is used to bond the water culvert 4 and the cofferdam body 1, so that the water culvert 4 and the cofferdam body 1 are fully fitted together, thereby enhancing the anti-seepage ability of the cofferdam body 1.
[0034] In this embodiment, an anti-skid sill 4-1 is provided on the water-facing slope of the cofferdam body 1 above the outlet of the water culvert 4. The anti-skid sill 4-1 is used to prevent water from seeping into the cofferdam body 1 through the gap between the water culvert 4 and the cofferdam body 1.
[0035] In this embodiment, a scouring wall 5 and a drop chute 6 are provided on the water-facing slope of the cofferdam body 1 below the outlet of the water culvert 4. The scouring wall 5 and the drop chute 6 are used to dissipate the energy of the water flow discharged from the outlet of the water culvert 4, thereby reducing the scouring of the slope of the cofferdam body 1 by the water flow.
[0036] The cofferdam 1 in this embodiment comprises a lower filling member arranged within the reservoir and an upper filling member 1-3 arranged above the lower filling member. The lower filling member comprises a first filling member 1-1 on the upstream side and a second filling member 1-2 on the downstream side. The first filling member 1-1 is composed of soil and stone, the second filling member 1-2 is composed of fine stone slag, and the upper filling member 1-3 is composed of stone slag.
[0037] In this embodiment, a lower water-facing slope protection 1-11 is provided on the slope of the lower filling member of the cofferdam body 1 facing the reservoir, an upper water-facing slope protection is provided on the slope of the upper filling member 1-3 facing the reservoir, and a backwater slope protection 1-12 is provided on the slope of the cofferdam body 1 away from the reservoir. A sealing layer 1-8 is provided on the top surfaces of both the upper filling member 1-3 and the lower filling member. The upper water-facing slope protection comprises an upper water-facing surface protection 1-4, a transition layer 1-7, a cushion layer 1-6, and a composite geomembrane 1-5, which are sequentially laid on the water-facing slope of the upper filling member 1-3. The lower water-facing slope protection 1-11 comprises a large stone slope protection laid on the water-facing slope of the lower filling member. The backwater slope protection 1-12 is a waterproof layer composed of a mixture of clay and a silt solidifier. Among them, the upper water-facing slope protection is a woven bag-filled soil protection with a thickness of 50cm; the composite geomembrane 1-5 is a 400g / 0.8mm / 400g HDEP geomembrane, and the thickness of the transition layer 1-7, cushion layer 1-6, large stone slope protection and waterproof layer are all 50cm; the waterproof layer is formed by mixing clay and silt curing agent in a certain proportion and brushing the slope and then fully curing; the sealing layer 1-8 is made of plain concrete.
[0038] In this embodiment, all debris and sharp stones on the slope surface should be removed before laying the composite geomembrane 1-5 to ensure that it is laid on a flat surface of sand-free concrete without any protruding or concave parts.
[0039] In this embodiment, tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 are anchored to the top surface of the lower fill member at the toe of the upstream slope of the upper fill member 1-3. These are Type IV tensile steel sheet piles, with their bottoms extending 5 meters into the reservoir bottom cover. An expansion joint is installed at the junction of the tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 and the composite geomembrane 1-5. The overlapped portion of the folded expansion joint must be greater than 0.5 meters to ensure good extensibility.
[0040] In this embodiment, a water-blocking curtain 1-9 is provided in the lower filling member of the tensile steel sheet pile 1-10 away from the reservoir. The water-blocking curtain 1-9 is formed by pouring grout into the cofferdam body 1 through curtain grouting.
[0041] In this embodiment, the elevation H2 of the top of the lower filling member is higher than the reservoir's low water mark H1, the elevation of the bottom of the water culvert 4 is higher than the reservoir's normal water mark H3, the elevation H5 of the top of the cofferdam body 1 is higher than the reservoir's high water mark H4, and the elevation of the top of the working well 3 is higher than the elevation H5 of the top of the cofferdam body 1. Thus, as long as the water in the reservoir does not overflow, the working well 3 not only serves as a buffer and filter, but also forms an interconnecting pipe inside and outside the cofferdam body, reducing bias pressure instability of the cofferdam body. Furthermore, when the water level in the reservoir is too high, the filter inside the working well 3 acts as a high-water backflow filter, protecting the water source from pollution.
[0042] The specific construction method of this embodiment is as follows:
[0043] When the water level in the reservoir drops to the minimum, the bottom of the reservoir is desilted and the bottom of the reservoir is excavated into a step-like shape;
[0044] After completion, the first filling component 1-1, the second filling component 1-2 and the lower water-facing slope protection 1-11 are constructed simultaneously using the advance occupation method. The lower water-facing slope protection 1-11 uses large stone slope protection. The first filling component 1-1 and the second filling component 1-2 are compacted by layered vibration rolling and filled to the top of the lower filling component.
[0045] At the toe of the upper filling member 1-3, tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 are driven in. The tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 extend 5 meters into the reservoir bottom cover layer. Curtain grouting is performed in the lower filling member on the back side of the tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 to form a water-blocking curtain 1-9. Plain concrete is poured on the top surface of the lower filling member above the tensile steel sheet piles 1-10 and the water-blocking curtain 1-9 to form a sealing layer 1-8.
[0046] After the lower fill elements have settled, the upper fill elements 1-3 are placed. When the fill reaches the elevation of the water box culvert 4 below the upper fill elements 1-3, the water box culvert 4 is constructed. An inward-concave notch is provided at the non-fill interface to ensure interlocking with the surrounding fill. Simultaneously with the construction of the water box culvert 4, the anti-scouring wall 5 and the water chute 6 are cast in situ, and the working well 3 is also constructed.
[0047] After the construction of the water box culvert 4 is completed, the remaining upper filling components 1-3 are filled. A clay seal layer 4-2 is set on the outer circle of the concave notch of the water box culvert 4 for clay sealing and protection, which is combined with the soil and stone materials of the dam body. The cushion layer 1-6, transition layer 1-7, composite geomembrane 1-5 and water-facing surface protection are constructed simultaneously with the filling of the upper filling component 1-3. The upper filling component 1-3 is compacted by vibration rolling, and then the top sealing layer 1-8 of the upper filling component 1-3 is constructed;
[0048] The main body of cofferdam 1 is essentially complete. After post-construction settlement is complete, the seepage condition of cofferdam 1 will be inspected. The final anti-seepage measure involves covering the backwater side with slope protection 1-12. This backwater side slope protection 1-12 is a waterproof layer made of a specific mixture of clay and silt solidifier, which provides excellent bonding, stability, and anti-seepage effects.
[0049] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
