Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for constructing a monolithic concrete base for a landscape walkway. Background Technology
[0002] Existing outdoor park landscape bridges and outdoor terrace walkways are constructed using plastic or preservative-treated wood. Plastic walkways generally have low strength and are not resistant to corrosion, especially in hot summer weather when their strength further decreases. While preservative-treated wood walkways are stronger than plastic, they also have a short lifespan, generally requiring repainting or replacement of damaged wood every 3-5 years, resulting in high maintenance costs. Furthermore, failure to replace damaged wood promptly increases the risk of pedestrians slipping. The surface of preservative-treated wood lacks anti-slip treatment, making it easy for pedestrians to slip and fall; adding anti-slip texture would increase processing costs. Over time, potholes easily appear on the walkways, accumulating rainwater during the rainy season, posing certain safety hazards. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a technical solution for the construction of a concrete integral base for landscape walkways, addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies. This construction method is simple in steps, not only facilitating the construction of the concrete integral base for landscape walkways, but also making installation and disassembly convenient and easy for later maintenance. At the same time, it can collect rainwater seepage, facilitating unified collection and treatment, and greatly improving the utilization rate of water resources.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] The construction method for the integral concrete base of a landscape walkway is characterized by the following steps:
[0006] 1) Surveying and setting out
[0007] a. First, clean up the construction area and measure and lay out the base according to the design requirements of the drawings to determine the construction position of the base.
[0008] b. Then, excavate according to the construction location of the base to form the required foundation pit. Pour concrete along the bottom and inner wall of the foundation pit for reinforcement. After the concrete reaches the set strength, install a water storage tank in the foundation pit and connect the water storage tank to the outside through a pipe.
[0009] c. Next, tie steel bars in the foundation pit and pour corresponding concrete support columns. After the support columns reach the set strength, backfill the foundation pit with soil until the set height is reached.
[0010] 2) Precast frame and construction
[0011] a. First, determine the dimensions of the horizontal and vertical bars according to the design length and width of the skeleton, make the corresponding molds, tie the corresponding steel bars in the molds, and pour concrete into the molds to form the horizontal and vertical bars of the integrated structure.
[0012] b. After the concrete reaches the set strength, remove the horizontal and vertical bars and place them into the foundation pit by hoisting. Fix the vertical bars to the soil with anchor bolts until the entire frame is completed.
[0013] 3) Construction of walkway slabs
[0014] a. First, determine the size of the walkway slab based on the spacing between two adjacent horizontal bars and the spacing between two adjacent vertical bars, then make the corresponding fixing frame and install the filter screen along the bottom inner side of the fixing frame;
[0015] b. Then, determine the size of the pedal according to the inner side dimensions of the fixed frame, process the corresponding pedal, and install the pedal on the fixed frame through the support mechanism. An L-shaped plate is provided on the side of the fixed frame near the horizontal bar. The L-shaped plate is provided with a limiting groove, which matches the horizontal bar. The first connecting block and the second connecting block are installed on both sides of the fixed frame near the longitudinal bar respectively.
[0016] c. Next, determine the size of the water storage box according to the size of the fixed frame, process the corresponding water storage box, install the drain pipe along the bottom of the water storage box, and fix the processed water storage box to the bottom of the fixed frame.
[0017] 4) Pedestrian walkway slab splicing
[0018] a. First, hoist a single walkway slab to one end of the frame, lower the walkway slab to 0.5m above the frame, connect the drainage pipe to the water storage tank through a flexible hose, continue to lower the walkway slab onto the frame, so that the L-shaped slab is snapped onto the horizontal bar, and fix the walkway slab to the frame with fastening screws.
[0019] b. Then install the next walkway slab along the layout direction of the frame, bring the next walkway slab close to the previous walkway slab, so that the second connecting block between the two adjacent walkway slabs is limited between the first connecting block, and connect them with the connecting rod. Then fix the next walkway slab to the frame with the fastening screws until the required walkway slabs are installed.
[0020] c. Next, pour concrete onto the end faces of the walkway slabs at both ends to fix them in place.
[0021] This construction method is simple and easy to implement. It facilitates the construction of the overall concrete base for the landscape walkway, and is easy to install and disassemble, making it convenient for later maintenance. At the same time, it can collect rainwater seepage, which is convenient for unified collection and treatment, greatly improving the utilization rate of water resources.
[0022] Furthermore, in step 1) process c, the top of the support column is 5-10cm higher than the top of the water tank. This not only helps to improve the overall strength and stability, but also protects the water tank and extends the service life of the overall base.
[0023] Furthermore, in step 2) process a, the two transverse bars are set parallel to each other, and the longitudinal bars are evenly distributed between the two transverse bars. The longitudinal bars not only improve the connection strength and stability between the two transverse bars, but also support the walkway slab, which facilitates the overall construction and reduces the construction difficulty.
[0024] Furthermore, in step 3) process b, the tread is made of permeable concrete, which allows rainwater to seep through the tread into the fixed frame, be filtered by the filter screen, flow into the water storage box, and then into the water storage tank for collection, reducing the accumulation of rainwater on the walkway and improving safety when walking.
[0025] Furthermore, in step 2) process b, each longitudinal bar is uniformly provided with anchor holes. By passing the anchor rod through the anchor holes and inserting it into the soil, the entire frame is fixedly installed. The anchor rod improves the stability and reliability of the frame construction, and further improves the stability of the walkway slab installation.
[0026] Furthermore, in step 3) process b, the support mechanism includes reinforcing strips and support strips. The support strips are evenly distributed within the fixed frame and located above the filter screen. The support strips are provided with slots. The reinforcing strips are fixed to the bottom surface of the pedal. The reinforcing strips match the slots. Through the design of the support strips and reinforcing strips, the installation stability of the pedal can be improved. At the same time, the slots can prevent the pedal from moving horizontally and facilitate installation and positioning.
[0027] Furthermore, in step 3) process b, a reinforcing block is provided between the L-shaped plate and the outer wall of the fixed frame, which improves the connection stability between the L-shaped plate and the fixed frame.
[0028] Furthermore, in step 3) process b, the tops of the first connecting block and the second connecting block are flush with the top of the fixed frame, the spacing between two adjacent first connecting blocks matches that of the second connecting block, and both the first connecting block and the second connecting block are provided with through holes to improve the tightness of the connection between two adjacent walkway slabs, reduce gaps, and prevent ankle sprains when walking.
[0029] The present invention, by adopting the above-described technical solution, has the following beneficial effects:
[0030] 1. The construction method of the present invention has simple steps, which not only facilitates the construction of the overall concrete base of the landscape walkway, but also makes installation and disassembly convenient and facilitates later maintenance. At the same time, it can collect rainwater leakage and facilitate unified collection and treatment, which greatly improves the utilization rate of water resources.
[0031] 2. The design of support bars and reinforcing bars can improve the installation stability of the pedal, while the slot can prevent the pedal from moving horizontally and facilitate installation and positioning.
[0032] 3. The spacing between two adjacent first connecting blocks matches that of the second connecting block, and both the first and second connecting blocks are provided with through holes to improve the tightness of the connection between two adjacent walkway slabs, reduce gaps, and prevent ankle sprains when walking.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0043] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 6 The diagram illustrates the construction method for the integral concrete base of a landscape walkway according to the present invention, comprising the following steps:
[0045] 1) Surveying and setting out
[0046] a. First, clean up the construction area and measure and lay out the base according to the design requirements of the drawings to determine the construction position of the base.
[0047] b. Then, excavate according to the construction location of the base to form the required foundation pit. Pour concrete along the bottom and inner wall of the foundation pit for reinforcement. After the concrete reaches the set strength, install a water storage tank in the foundation pit and connect the water storage tank to the outside through a pipe.
[0048] c. Next, tie steel bars in the foundation pit and pour corresponding concrete support columns. After the support columns reach the set strength, backfill the foundation pit with soil until the set height is reached. The top of the support column is 5-10cm higher than the top of the water tank. This not only helps to improve the overall strength and stability, but also protects the water tank and extends the service life of the overall base.
[0049] 2) Precast frame 1 and construction
[0050] a. First, determine the dimensions of the transverse bars 5 and longitudinal bars 6 according to the design length and width of the frame 1, make the corresponding molds, tie the corresponding steel bars in the molds, and pour concrete into the molds to form an integral structure of transverse bars 5 and longitudinal bars 6; the two transverse bars 5 are set parallel to each other, and the longitudinal bars 6 are evenly distributed between the two transverse bars 5. The longitudinal bars 6 not only improve the connection strength and stability between the two transverse bars 5, but also support the walkway slab 2, which facilitates the overall construction and reduces the construction difficulty.
[0051] b. After the concrete reaches the set strength, remove the transverse rod 5 and the longitudinal rod 6, and place them into the foundation pit by hoisting. Fix the longitudinal rod 6 to the soil with anchor rods until the entire frame 1 is completed. Each longitudinal rod 6 is evenly provided with anchor holes 20. The anchor rod passes through the anchor holes 20 and is inserted into the soil to achieve the fixed installation of the entire frame 1. The anchor rod improves the stability and reliability of the frame 1 construction and further improves the stability of the walkway slab 2 installation.
[0052] 3) Construction of walkway slabs 2
[0053] a. First, determine the size of the walkway slab 2 based on the distance between two adjacent horizontal bars 5 and the distance between two adjacent vertical bars 6, and make the corresponding fixing frame 7. Install the filter screen 15 along the bottom inner side of the fixing frame 7.
[0054] b. Then, determine the size of the pedal 8 according to the inner side dimensions of the fixed frame 7, process the corresponding pedal 8, and install the pedal 8 on the fixed frame 7 through the support mechanism. An L-shaped plate 16 is provided on the side of the fixed frame 7 near the transverse bar 5. A limiting groove 18 is provided on the L-shaped plate 16. The limiting groove 18 matches the transverse bar 5. The first connecting block 11 and the second connecting block 12 are installed on both sides of the fixed frame 7 near the longitudinal bar 6 respectively.
[0055] The step 8 is made of permeable concrete, which allows rainwater to seep through the step 8 into the fixed frame 7, be filtered by the filter screen 15, and then flow into the water storage box 9 and then into the water storage tank for collection, reducing the accumulation of rainwater on the walkway slab 2 and improving the safety of walking.
[0056] The support mechanism includes reinforcing strips 10 and support strips 13. The support strips 13 are evenly distributed within the fixed frame 7 and are located above the filter screen 15. The support strips 13 are provided with slots 14. The reinforcing strips 10 are fixed to the bottom surface of the pedal 8. The reinforcing strips 10 and slots 14 are matched. Through the design of the support strips 13 and reinforcing strips 10, the installation stability of the pedal 8 can be improved. At the same time, the slots 14 can prevent the pedal 8 from moving horizontally and facilitate installation and positioning.
[0057] A reinforcing block 17 is provided between the L-shaped plate 16 and the outer wall of the fixed frame 7, which improves the connection stability between the L-shaped plate 16 and the fixed frame 7. The tops of the first connecting block 11 and the second connecting block 12 are flush with the top of the fixed frame 7. The spacing between two adjacent first connecting blocks 11 matches the spacing between the second connecting blocks 12. Both the first connecting blocks 11 and the second connecting blocks 12 are provided with through holes, which improves the tightness of the connection between two adjacent walkway plates 2, reduces gaps, and prevents ankle sprains when walking.
[0058] c. Next, determine the size of the water storage box 9 according to the size of the fixed frame 7, process the corresponding water storage box 9, and install the drain pipe 19 along the bottom of the water storage box 9. Then, fix the processed water storage box 9 to the bottom of the fixed frame 7.
[0059] 4) Slab splicing 2
[0060] a. First, hoist a single walkway slab 2 to one end of the frame 1, lower the walkway slab 2 to 0.5m above the frame 1, connect the drain pipe 19 to the water storage tank through the hose, continue to lower the walkway slab 2 onto the frame 1, so that the L-shaped plate 16 is snapped onto the horizontal bar 5, and fix the walkway slab 2 to the frame 1 with the fastening screws 4.
[0061] b. Then install the next walkway slab 2 along the layout direction of the frame 1, bring the next walkway slab 2 close to the previous walkway slab 2, so that the second connecting block 12 between the two adjacent walkway slabs 2 is limited between the first connecting block 11, and connected by the connecting rod 3. Then fix the next walkway slab 2 to the frame 1 by the fastening screw 4 until the required walkway slab 2 is installed.
[0062] c. Next, pour concrete on the end faces of the walkway slabs at both ends to fix them in place.
[0063] This construction method is simple and easy to implement. It facilitates the construction of the overall concrete base for the landscape walkway, and is easy to install and disassemble, making it convenient for later maintenance. At the same time, it can collect rainwater seepage, which is convenient for unified collection and treatment, greatly improving the utilization rate of water resources.
[0064] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications made based on the present invention to achieve substantially the same technical effect are all covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
