AI Technical Summary
In deep foundation pit construction, the existing technology requires waiting for the inner slope to be removed before backfilling the trench, which leads to extended construction period, poor material transportation, and limited interleaving of work processes.
The composite wall structure is adopted, which utilizes the existing underground structure support structure and the outer wall to form a post-cast space. The unit wall panels are connected by tie components composed of inclined cables and reaction beams to realize the pre-filling of the trench. The prefabricated unit wall panels are stacked layer by layer to form a stable retaining structure.
This enabled the advance backfilling of local sections of the fertilizer trench, shortening the construction period, improving construction efficiency, and solving the problem of overlapping construction processes.

[0002] In the early stages of earthwork excavation for projects with deep foundation pits, internal ramps need to be reserved. After the underground structure is constructed to ±0, backfilling of the trench cannot be carried out due to the ramp's limitations; backfilling can only be done after the internal ramp is removed. During the demolition of the ramp, the construction site is limited, material transportation channels are obstructed, and the underground structure is isolated from the outside world by the trench. Due to the overlapping of work processes, the trench needs to be backfilled in advance.
[0003] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, a trench support retaining wall structure and trench backfilling method using existing underground structures are provided to solve the problem that existing deep foundation pits require advance backfilling of trenches due to overlapping construction processes, and that the construction time for backfilling all trenches is long, affecting the construction period.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a trench support retaining wall structure utilizing existing underground structures is provided, comprising:
[0006] Two overlapping walls are erected vertically in the trench of a deep foundation pit. The overlapping walls include multiple layers of unit wall panels stacked together. The opposite sides of the unit wall panels form post-cast spaces with the support structure of the deep foundation pit and the underground structure of the deep foundation pit, respectively. The opposite sides of the unit wall panels are anchored to the outer walls of the support structure and the underground structure by rebar. A bearing plate is formed at the bottom of the unit wall panels.
[0007] Cast-in-place concrete is poured into the post-cast space and covers the reinforcing bars;
[0008] The tie assembly includes multiple stay cables and a reaction beam. The unit wall panel has multiple reserved holes. The stay cables pass through the reserved holes. The reaction beam presses against the outside of the unit wall panel. One end of the stay cable is connected to the reaction beam. The other end of the stay cable extends to the inside of the unit wall panel and is connected to the support structure.
[0009] Furthermore, a socket groove is formed at the bottom of the unit wall panel, and the insertion protrusion of the unit wall panel is inserted into the socket groove of the upper unit wall panel.
[0010] Furthermore, the pressure plate is disposed on the inner side of the unit wall panel.
[0011] Furthermore, stiffening ribs are formed between the bearing plate and the inner side of the unit wall panel.
[0012] Furthermore, the unit wall panel is arranged along the width direction of the trough.
[0013] Furthermore, the plurality of the reserved holes are arranged along the width direction of the trough.
[0014] This invention provides a method for backfilling trenches using a trench support retaining wall structure that utilizes existing underground structures, comprising the following steps:
[0015] a. Divide the fertilizer trench into an advance backfilling section and a follow-up backfilling section;
[0016] b. At both ends of the advanced backfill section, rebar is implanted in the outer walls of the support structure and the underground structure;
[0017] c. Install a unit wall panel at each end of the pre-fill section, and connect the opposite sides of the unit wall panel to the reinforcing bars in the outer wall of the support structure and the underground structure, so that the opposite sides of the unit wall panel form a post-pouring space between the support structure of the deep foundation pit and the underground structure of the deep foundation pit.
[0018] d. The reaction beam of the tie assembly presses against the outer side of the first-layer unit wall panel;
[0019] e. The stay cable of the tie assembly passes through the reserved hole of the first-floor unit wall panel, and one end of the stay cable of the tie assembly is connected to the reaction beam, and the other end of the stay cable extends to the inner side of the first-floor unit wall panel and is connected to the support structure.
[0020] f. Cast-in-place concrete is poured in the post-cast space, and the cast-in-place concrete covers the anchored rebar;
[0021] g. Backfill soil between the first-layer unit wall panels at both ends of the advanced backfill section;
[0022] h. Repeat steps b to g, backfilling the advanced backfill section layer by layer from bottom to top.
[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are that it utilizes the existing underground structure of the trench support retaining wall structure, and uses the support structures on both sides of the trench and the outer wall of the underground structure to erect a composite wall. The composite wall is formed by stacking multiple layers of prefabricated unit wall panels. Each side of the unit wall panel is connected to the support structure through tie components to form a stable retaining structure, which enables the pre-filling of local trench sections, allows for the interleaving of processes, and shortens the construction period.
