Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of avalanche prevention engineering technology for power transmission lines, and more specifically, to a pile-slab snow guide wall structure and its design method. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing construction of power transmission lines in high-altitude areas, the impact of avalanches on these lines is becoming increasingly prominent due to limitations imposed by factors such as route, terrain, and geology. To address the avalanche problem affecting power transmission lines, a combination of avoidance and prevention measures should be adopted. Avalanche management can be implemented at the occurrence, movement, and deposition zones. However, protection in the occurrence and movement zones is typically costly, difficult to construct, and challenging to maintain year-round; therefore, priority should be given to end-point control in the avalanche deposition zone. Currently, commonly used end-point control methods include snow nets, fencing, and snow guide walls (or snow barriers). However, the protective effect of snow nets and fencing is difficult to quantify, and they often fail under the impact of avalanches exceeding a certain scale. Currently, commonly used snow guide walls are gravity structures, often using dry-laid, mortar-grouted rubble masonry, or shallow-buried reinforced concrete structures. These are unsuitable for steep slopes, require long-term maintenance, do not align with the design philosophy of low maintenance in high-altitude areas, and lack comprehensive calculation theories and systematic design methods. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a pile-slab snow guide wall structure, including two walls, left and right, forming an L shape. Each wall includes an anti-skid pile and a snow guide plate. The lower end of the anti-skid pile is buried in the soil, and the upper end is exposed above the ground. The bottom of the snow guide plate is placed on the ground, the top of the plate is higher than the top of the anti-skid pile, and it is inclined towards the snow-facing side.

[0018] S7. Based on the snow pressure load effect borne by the snow guide plate, calculate the reinforcement of the snow guide plate as a bending member and a shear member respectively, and determine the thickness of the snow guide plate.

[0019] S8. Based on the snow pressure load effect borne by the anti-slide pile, calculate the reinforcement of the anti-slide pile as a bending member and a shear member respectively, and determine the section height of the anti-slide pile.

[0068] The snow guide wall is set above the tower, with the left and right walls arranged in an L-shape, with the corners facing the direction of the avalanche flow. In order to make the left and right walls more evenly stressed, the axial direction of the left and right walls is as consistent as possible with the impact direction of the avalanche flow; the angle between the left and right walls is 60°-90°.

[0069] S3. Determine the length of the snow guide wall based on the 7-meter opening at the base of the tower.

[0070] The shortest distances S2 and S3 between the two side walls and the tower legs should satisfy S2≥h1 and S3≥h1, so as to prevent the walls from falling towards the tower and damaging the tower materials in extreme cases.

[0075]

[0076] Maximum bending moment M of the side span snow guide plate max The calculation method is as follows:

[0077]

[0078] Where L is the span of the snow guide plate, P1 is the snow pressure perpendicular to the wall, and P1=Psinθ 2 θ is the direction of the avalanche flow impact, and θ is the angle between the axial direction of the wall. When the direction of the avalanche flow is uncertain, it can be conservatively taken as 90°.

[0079] Maximum shear force V of the middle span guide snowboard max The calculation method is as follows:

[0080]

[0081] Maximum shear force V of the side span snow guide plate max The calculation method is as follows:

[0082] V max =P1h1L.

[0083] S6. Based on the snow pressure intensity value P obtained from numerical simulation or survey analysis, the load effect of the anti-slide pile is calculated using a pile foundation model based on the safety factor method.

[0084] Maximum bending moment M of anti-slide pile maxThe calculation method is as follows:

[0085] M max =1.3P1h1(L+b)(0.5h1+1);

[0086] Where b is the width of the anti-slide pile section.

[0087] Maximum shear force V of anti-slide pile max The calculation method is as follows:

[0088] V max= P1h1(L+b).

[0089] S7. Based on the snow pressure load effect borne by the snow guide plate, calculate the reinforcement of the snow guide plate as a bending member and a shear member respectively, and determine the thickness of the snow guide plate.

[0090] The concrete strength of the snow guide plate can be C30, and the longitudinal reinforcing steel should be HRB400 and the stirrups should be HPB300.

[0091] S8. Based on the snow pressure load effect borne by the anti-slide pile, calculate the reinforcement of the anti-slide pile as a bending member and a shear member respectively, and determine the section height of the anti-slide pile. The section height of the anti-slide pile should be greater than or equal to the section width.

[0092] The concrete strength of the anti-slide pile can be C30, and the longitudinal reinforcing steel should be HRB400 and the stirrups should be HPB300.

[0093] S9. Adjust the size and quantity of snow guide walls and anti-skid piles, repeat steps S5, S6, S7, and S8, calculate the amount of concrete and steel reinforcement, compare the economics of multiple schemes, and select the scheme with the lowest cost.

[0094] Example 2

[0095] like Figures 2-5 As shown in the figure, this embodiment proposes a pile-slab snow guide wall structure, which is a reinforced concrete structure. Specifically, it includes two walls, left and right, forming an L-shape. The included angle between the axes of the left and right walls is 60°-90°. Each wall includes anti-skid piles 2 and snow guide plates. The snow guide plates include a middle span snow guide plate 3 and a side span snow guide plate 4.

[0096] The anti-slide pile 2 has a rectangular cross-section, with the lower end buried in the soil. In mountainous terrain, the burial depth should be ≥5m, and the upper end is exposed above the ground. It is cast integrally with the corresponding middle span snow guide plate 3 and side span snow guide plate 4. The bottom of the snow guide plate is placed on the ground, and the top of the plate is 0.5-1.0m higher than the top of the anti-slide pile 2. It is tilted at a certain angle (between 45° and 90°) towards the snow-facing side to prevent the avalanche flow from being blocked by the snow guide wall and rushing out and over the wall. The avalanche flow is confined within the wall. The snow-facing side of the snow guide plate is arranged flush with the snow-facing side of the anti-slide pile 2. The purpose is to facilitate snow guidance and avoid forming a concave angle, so that the avalanche flow accumulates within the wall and increases the avalanche impact height.

[0097] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
