Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of engineering construction, and in particular to an application system and an operation method of BIM technology in sloping of mountain roads. Background Art

[0002] In mountain highway construction, slope reduction is a crucial task. Traditional slope reduction methods mainly rely on engineers' experience and manual calculations. Engineers need to conduct a lot of survey work on the spot, measure terrain data, and then analyze it through paper topographic maps. The landforms in mountainous areas are complex, with mountains, hills, river slopes, etc., and the plains are relatively small and scattered. This landform feature increases the difficulty of road construction, survey and design: 1. The terrain is undulating: Fujian's terrain is undulating, with steep slopes in mountainous and hilly areas and relatively low slopes in plain areas. This terrain increases the difficulty of original ground simulation and slope design, and also has a great impact on the calculation of earthwork volume and transportation planning after slope reduction. 2. Complex geological structure: The terrain in mountainous areas is complex. After more than 2 billion years of vicissitudes of crustal movement, the strata are relatively complete, and the geological structure is very complex and changeable. 4. High environmental protection requirements: According to the current environmental construction requirements, the original environment needs to be maintained as much as possible during the renovation and construction process, which requires full consideration of the overall terrain and geology for construction at the initial design and planning nodes. In summary, the landform characteristics of mountainous areas have a significant impact on the slope design and later earthwork calculation and deployment difficulties during the construction of mountainous roads.
