[0008] Furthermore, both ends of the A plate and the B plate are provided with snap-in grooves, and both ends of the bottom plate and the top plate are provided with snap-in blocks matching the snap-in grooves, and the bottom plate, the wall plate and the top plate are snap-fitted and installed.

[0009] Furthermore, after lowering the bottom plate, the wall plate and the top plate, the method further includes: lifting the bottom plate and the wall plate; after pushing the top plate to a designated position, supporting and pushing the top plate to a designated elevation using a hydraulic device.

[0010] Furthermore, the gap distance between the prefabricated box culvert and the existing box culvert is greater than or equal to 50 mm.

[0011] Furthermore, when the gap is less than 50 mm, cement mortar is used to fill the gap; when the gap is greater than 50 mm, self-compacting fine stone concrete is used to cast and fill the gap.

[0012] Furthermore, before lowering the bottom plate, wall plate and top plate, it also includes: investigating the dimensions of each inspection wellhead of the box culvert section to determine the length and width of the prefabricated plate that can be lowered; and designing the reinforcement of the bottom plate, wall plate and top plate according to external working conditions.

[0013] Furthermore, the water-facing surface of the prefabricated box culvert is provided with a stainless steel plate.

[0019] In order to facilitate understanding of the present application, the present application will be described more fully below with reference to the relevant drawings. Embodiments of the present application are provided in the drawings. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive.

[0020] The embodiment of the present invention provides a trenchless repair method suitable for a brick box culvert, which can solve the problems of high safety risk, long construction period and high construction cost in the related technology.

[0021] See also Figure 1 As shown, a trenchless repair method suitable for a brick box culvert provided by an embodiment of the present invention comprises the following steps: lowering a bottom plate 11, a wall plate 12 and a top plate 13, and assembling them along the inner side of an existing box culvert 2 to form a prefabricated box culvert 1; and filling the gap between the prefabricated box culvert 1 and the existing box culvert 2. In this embodiment, by prefabricating a concrete slab matching the prefabricated box culvert 1 in advance, lowering it and assembling it along the inner side of the prefabricated box culvert 1, the internal body of the old box culvert is reinforced in a short time, the self-strength of the existing box culvert is improved, and the gap in trenchless repair of deep-buried brick (stone) box culverts is effectively filled. The design service life of the box culvert is greatly improved, the safety risk is small, the construction period is short, and the construction cost is low.

[0022] Specifically, the construction steps are as follows: (1) Inspect and investigate the pipe culvert to determine the damage of the pipe culvert and the scope of repair.

[0023] (2) Investigate the dimensions of each inspection well opening in the box culvert section to determine the length and width of the precast panels that can be lowered.

[0024] (3) Design the reinforcement of the top plate 13, wall plate 12 and bottom plate 11 according to the external working conditions.

[0025] (4) The repaired section of the box culvert should be sealed and desilted; the silt and waste should be removed, especially the solid waste, to ensure the smooth installation of the precast panels at a later stage.

[0026] (5) Assembly and commissioning of prefabricated panel pusher 6; (6) The bottom plate 11, the wall plate 12 and the top plate 13 are lowered and installed; (7) Filling the gap between the new and old box culverts. When the gap is less than 50 mm, cement mortar is recommended; when the gap is larger than 50 mm, self-compacting fine stone concrete is recommended.

[0027] Preferably, according to the different needs of domestic sewage or industrial sewage, an anti-corrosion outer membrane is arranged on the water-facing surface in advance when the prefabricated panels are manufactured to ensure that the repaired culvert meets the regulatory requirements.

[0028] See also Figure 1As shown, preferably, the gap 5 between the new and old box culverts is greater than or equal to 50 mm, which is convenient for later filling with fine stone concrete; the gap 5 between the new and old box culverts at the top is greater than or equal to the thickness of the prefabricated top plate + 50 mm, which is convenient for later installation of the top plate 13; the steel bars and thickness of the wall panels 12 and the bottom plates 11 should be determined according to the design conditions.

[0029] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the wall panel 12 includes a plate A 121 and a plate B 122. The plate A 121 and the plate B 122 should be able to be embedded in each other, a recess is arranged on one side of the plate A 121, and a protrusion is arranged on one side of the plate B 122. The size of the protrusion should be slightly smaller than the size of the recess to ensure that the wall panels can be perfectly connected.

[0030] Preferably, when the B plate 122 is inserted close to the A plate 121 , a flexible waterproof material such as asphalt hemp should be applied to the protrusion of the B plate 122 .

[0031] See also Figure 4 As shown, the prefabricated panel pusher 6 is assembled from different rods. If the bottom elevation of the inspection well is lower than the bottom elevation of the box culvert, it can be temporarily raised to facilitate the pusher to move smoothly in the cover culvert after the prefabricated panels are lowered.

[0032] When in use, a temporary electric suspension device can be installed on the upper part of the bracket of the prefabricated panel pushing vehicle 6 to lift the lower bottom plate 11 and the side wall panels 12. After the top plate 13 is pushed to the specified position, it is first lifted to a certain elevation and then supported and pushed to the specified elevation by a hydraulic device.

[0033] In some embodiments, the top plate 13, the wall plate 12 and the bottom plate 11 are precast concrete plates with stainless steel plates on the water-facing side, and the precast plates are assembled to form an integral box culvert.

[0034] In some embodiments, special-shaped prefabricated panels can be specially customized at the corners of the box culvert; stainless steel quick-lock seals can be used for the sealing of the joints of the prefabricated panels.

[0035] In some embodiments, the prefabricated panels at both ends of the box culvert are installed last to ensure that the concrete box culvert at the end can be well fixed.

[0036] In some embodiments, fine stone concrete is used to seal the back surface of the box culvert and the front surface of the original brick (stone) retaining wall.
