Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of underground engineering, and in particular to a joint box of an underground flexible curtain and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In civil engineering construction, groundwater control during foundation pit excavation is a critical issue. To prevent groundwater from impacting the foundation pit, surrounding buildings, and underground facilities, a water-stop curtain is often required. Existing water-stop curtain technologies primarily include bored piles, steel sheet piles, and underground diaphragm walls. However, these technologies have limitations and shortcomings.

[0003] While mixing pile technology offers rapid construction and relatively low costs, it can easily create weak spots and leaks during construction, resulting in poor water-blocking effectiveness. Furthermore, the relatively low strength and rigidity of mixing piles may not be able to withstand significant groundwater pressure, thus impacting the stability of the foundation pit. Steel sheet piles and underground diaphragm walls offer greater strength and rigidity, effectively blocking groundwater, but both methods carry significant construction costs.

[0004] The construction of steel sheet piles also requires large-scale piling equipment, which causes significant disturbance to the surrounding environment, generating noise and vibration. The construction of underground continuous walls requires a large amount of concrete, which increases the material cost of the project. In addition, a large amount of mud waste is generated during the construction process, causing environmental pollution. In addition, traditional water-stop curtain technology has high requirements for the construction site during the construction process, requiring a large working space and convenient logistics and transportation conditions, which are often difficult to meet in projects in densely populated urban areas. Existing water-stop curtain technology has shortcomings such as complex construction, high cost, large environmental impact, and limited construction conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a joint box for an underground flexible curtain and a construction method thereof, which can have the advantages of simple construction, low cost, environmental friendliness and water-stopping effect.

[0007] A joint box for an underground flexible curtain, comprising a plurality of joint boxes, a plurality of tool boxes, a plurality of stirrups and a plurality of longitudinal bars, a plurality of boreholes being drilled underground, the plurality of longitudinal bars being evenly distributed in parallel, the plurality of stirrups being evenly distributed in parallel, the plurality of longitudinal bars and the plurality of stirrups being perpendicular to each other, and the plurality of longitudinal bars and the plurality of stirrups being welded to form a steel cage;

[0008] Each of the steel cages is located inside the drilled hole, and two joint boxes are provided inside each of the steel cages. A tool box is fixedly connected to the inside of each of the joint boxes, and a slot is provided on one side of each of the joint boxes.

[0017] A construction method for a joint box of an underground flexible curtain comprises the following steps:

[0018] S1: drilling, excavating multiple boreholes;

[0019] S2: Lower the reinforcement cage consisting of longitudinal reinforcement and stirrups, apply friction reducer on the outer surface of the tool box, insert it into the body of the joint box, and then lower the whole thing to the center of the drill hole;

[0020] S3: pouring concrete in the gap between the drill hole and the tool box;

[0021] S4: In the tool box on one side of the joint box, lower the guide rod of the film planting machine, and the rope saw at the end of the guide rod cuts the soil into grooves;

[0022] S5: After the trough section is completed, the flexible anti-seepage membrane is lowered. End caps are provided at both ends of the anti-seepage membrane to prevent the anti-seepage membrane from detaching from the trough.

[0023] S6: After the anti-seepage membrane is put into place, remove the tool box and then pour the curing agent into the gap;

[0024] S7: Repeat this process to form a continuous water-stop curtain.

The anti-seepage membrane is used for waterproofing, increasing the water-stopping effect and reducing costs.

[0031] The positions of the two notches in the same steel cage are opposite to each other, the two adjacent anti-seepage membranes are parallel to each other and are not located on the same horizontal plane, the requirements for the construction site are low, and the construction process is simple.
