Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of road shoulder micropile reinforcement, and in particular to a road shoulder micropile reinforcement method and structure based on the reconstruction and expansion of expressways. Background Art

[0002] As the highway reconstruction and expansion project is in full swing, there are problems such as: the original highway shoulder will be located at the position of the heavy vehicle lane on the new road surface due to the widening and re-division of the original road surface. Due to the relatively weak structure layer under the original highway shoulder and the insufficient thickness of the water-stabilizing layer, the road surface's bearing capacity, deflection, modulus, service life and other indicators cannot meet the requirements of long-term use of the highway. Therefore, it is necessary to improve and reinforce the subgrade structure under the original hard shoulder.

[0003] There are two main types of existing shoulder pavements. One is a thin shoulder made mainly of asphalt pavement. Due to the good plasticity of asphalt, the thickness of the stress diffusion layer is insufficient and the modulus of the roadbed soil varies greatly, resulting in overall settlement and local uneven settlement. The other is a thin shoulder made mainly of concrete. Due to the high rigidity of concrete, the excessive shear stress caused by insufficient concrete thickness and the repeated tension between the pavement and the roadbed, the main form of damage is fracture and cracks.

[0004] In order to avoid settlement or cracking of the roadbed after the expansion of the expressway, the existing scheme adopts the method of layered backfilling after graded excavation. The specific construction method is: the general excavation depth is 2m, and the roadbed filler is backfilled and compacted in layers after excavation, and then the water-stable layer and the pavement layer are filled in layers. However, this method has the following obvious disadvantages: 1) During the roadbed excavation process, in order to ensure the normal operation of the original highway, the expanded highway is generally in a semi-construction and semi-open state. The shoulder of the expanded road is close to the original lane, and the margin is generally no more than 1m. If no protective measures are taken at the roadbed boundary during the excavation process, creep deformation or direct damage may occur under the action of dynamic loads, posing a serious threat to the safety of construction personnel and passing vehicles. If protective measures such as steel sheet piles are taken, although safety can be improved to a certain extent, construction organization is more difficult in the highway environment, and the construction joints caused by the withdrawal of steel sheet piles are difficult to handle, and the cost is high.

[0005] 2) Roadbed excavation generates a lot of waste materials, which are mainly roadbed fillers, water-stabilized gravel, asphalt or concrete mixtures. The abandoned slag will seriously pollute the surrounding environment. At the same time, this behavior also causes a lot of waste of resources and does not meet the requirements of low-carbon greening.

[0006] 3) During the layered compaction process of the roadbed, since the width of the shoulder area is generally small, conventionally around 2.5m, it is currently difficult to find suitable machinery for compaction of this long strip of foundation pit, and the construction quality is difficult to guarantee. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method and structure for reinforcing the shoulders of highways based on the reconstruction and expansion of expressways.

A plug is stuck in the connecting hole 61, and the plug is made of water glass. The bottom of the steel flower tube 6 of this embodiment is also provided with multiple connecting tubes.

[0037] Verification Example This embodiment like Figure 6 As shown, the experiment was conducted in a high-speed test area from October to December 2023 as follows: Step 1: Design the pile position: Hole layout: Select micro piles with a diameter of 170mm and an expansion of 300mm, a total pile length of 1.0m, an expansion section length of 63mm, a pavement layer thickness of 37mm, a longitudinal hole spacing of 1100mm, and a transverse hole spacing of 800mm and 650mm; Step 2: Punch and expand holes at the designed pile positions: First, use a 170mm punching drill bit to punch a hole at 370mm, punching to the 370mm position; then use a 170mm 300mm reaming drill bit to reame the hole, and the length of the lower reaming section is 630mm; Step 3: First, prepare a steel tube with a diameter of 40-60mm. The length of the steel tube is equal to the length of the expansion section, which is 630mm. The length error is controlled within 50mm. There are no less than 2 grouting holes at the bottom of the steel tube, and no less than 8 connecting holes at the bottom and top of the side wall of the steel tube. All grouting holes are blocked with water glass. The length of the auxiliary tube is 60cm-100cm to ensure convenient construction and disassembly. Then put the prepared steel tube into the micropile, and ensure that the center line of the steel tube is in line with the center line of the micropile hole, the verticality is controlled within the range of plus or minus 5 degrees, and the overall deviation is controlled within the range of 2 cm; ensure that the grouting area at the top of the steel tube is within the contact zone between the water-stable layer and the roadbed, and ensure that the grouting liquid can penetrate into the contact zone; Step 4: External grouting: Use PO42.5 cement with a water-cement ratio of 0.4-0.6 for grouting, and use a conduit to grout from the bottom to the top. During the grouting process, ensure that there is no grout inside the steel flower tube; Step 5. After 7 to 10 hours (adjusted according to weather and temperature), the slurry on the outside of the steel pipe has a certain strength. Put a grouting pipe with a diameter of 30 to 40 mm inside the steel pipe, and the grouting port is 1 cm to 2 cm away from the bottom inner wall of the steel pipe. Use the water injection pipe to inject water into the elastic water injection cavity. The water injection pressure is controlled at 3.5 to 4.5 MPa, so that the elastic water injection cavity expands and opens, and fits the inner wall of the steel pipe to seal the steel pipe. Step 6: Grout the lower end and bottom of the steel pipe through the grouting pipe. The water-cement ratio is 0.8-1.1, and the grouting splitting pressure is controlled at 3.8MPa-5.0MPa. The slurry uses pressure to flush the water glass plug of the steel pipe. After flushing, the grouting pressure is maintained between 0.8MPa and 1.3MPa. After injecting 0.13-0.15 cubic meters of cement slurry, lift the grouting pipe to the auxiliary pipe position to ensure that the grouting port is at the connecting hole at the top of the steel pipe, and then grout (the grouting volume is controlled at 0.12-0.14 cubic meters, and the total amount of single pile grouting and splitting grouting is controlled at 0.25-0.28 cubic meters). After the grouting is completed, remove the grouting pipe and use a sealing plug to seal the hole. Step 7. After the grouting of one pile is completed, construct the next pile in the order of alternate holes, and finally complete all the micro-piles of the same batch. After 8 to 12 hours, remove the auxiliary pipe by twisting it to expose it to the road surface section. After removal, use cement slurry with a water-cement ratio of 0.4 to 0.6 to seal and level the small holes. After all is completed, water it for natural maintenance.

[0038] Test results: Since the spacing of 170mm to 300mm is within the range of 650 to 1100mm, the theoretically calculated bearing capacity is far greater than the design bearing capacity, so the detection is mainly carried out around the deformation index.

[0039] 1) Load plate test According to the modulus test results, the average deformation modulus of the un-grouted area is 522.3MPa, the average deformation modulus of the soil position between piles in the test area is 838.6MPa, and the average deformation modulus of the pile top position is 986.3MPa. The modulus of the soil position between piles has increased by 1.60 times, and the modulus of the pile top position has increased by 1.89 times. The comprehensive stress diffusion angle of the road surface and the water-stabilizing layer tested previously is about 39.1 degrees. It can be seen that in this embodiment, the overall soil index is strengthened, the stress is reasonably diffused, and it is properly concentrated at the pile position.

[0040] 2) Deflection test The completion value of the un-grouted area is between 18 and 35, with an average value of 25.5. The deflection settlement values ​​after grouting are shown in Table 1.

[0041] Table 1 Deflection statistics of the three test areas ;

[0042] It can be seen that the overall deflection has been greatly reduced and can meet the requirements of current standard design.

[0043] Comparative Example like Figure 7 As shown, the following experiments will be conducted in the high-speed test area 1 from October to December 2023: 1. Hole layout plan: Select micro piles with a diameter of 75mm, a total pile length of 1.0m, a hole expansion section length of 63mm, a pavement and structural layer thickness of 37mm, a longitudinal hole spacing of 800mm, and a transverse hole spacing of 800mm and 650mm. The grouting volume is divided into two sections for quantitative grouting based on calculations.

[0044] 2. Testing plan: Use pressure plate test and deflection test for testing.

[0045] 3. The specific plan is as follows: 1) Use a 75mm punching drill to punch holes to the 1000mm position; 2) Prepare steel flower pipes. The diameter of the steel flower pipes is 40-60mm ordinary steel pipes. The length of the steel pipe is equivalent to the length of the lower expansion section, which is 630mm. The length error is controlled within 50mm. There are no less than 2 grouting holes at the end of the steel flower pipe, and no less than 8 holes in the opening area at the top and bottom of the side wall of the grouting device. All grouting holes are temporarily blocked with water glass. The length of the auxiliary pipe of the steel flower pipe is controlled within the range of 60cm to 100cm to ensure convenient construction and disassembly; 3) Place the prepared steel tube into the expanded micropile hole, ensure that the center line of the steel tube is in line with the center line of the micropile hole, control the verticality within the range of plus or minus 5 degrees, and control the overall deviation within 1 cm; ensure that the grouting area of ​​the upper section of the steel tube is within the contact zone between the water-stable layer and the roadbed, and ensure that the grouting liquid can penetrate into the contact zone; 4) Grouting is performed on the outer area of ​​the micropile steel tube. PO42.5 cement is used for grouting (other types of cement can be used for special strata). The water-cement ratio is 0.4-0.6. Grouting is performed from the bottom to the top using a conduit. During the grouting process, ensure that there is no slurry inside the steel tube. 5) After 7 to 10 hours (adjusted according to weather and temperature conditions), when the slurry on the outside of the steel pipe has a certain strength, put a 30-40mm diameter grouting pipe inside the steel pipe, put the grouting port 1-2cm below the bottom of the steel pipe, and inject water into the elastic water injection cavity through the water injection pipe. The water injection pressure is controlled at 3.5-4.5MPa to ensure that the elastic water injection cavity expands and fits the steel pipe to seal the steel pipe; 6) Grout the lower end and bottom of the steel pipe through the grouting pipe, the water-cement ratio is 0.8-1.1, the grouting splitting pressure is controlled at 3.8-5.0MPa, the slurry uses pressure to flush the temporary water glass plugging of the grouting holes of the steel pipe, and the grouting pressure is maintained between 0.8-1.3MPa after flushing. After injecting 0.15-0.0.18 cubic meters of cement slurry, lift the grouting pipe to the auxiliary pipe position to ensure that the grouting port of the grouting pipe is in the grouting hole area of ​​the upper section of the steel pipe, and then grout the upper section with the same grouting steps as the lower end (the grouting volume is controlled at 0.14-0.16 cubic meters, and the total amount of single pile grouting and splitting grouting is controlled at 0.30-0.34 cubic meters). After the grouting is completed, remove the grouting pipe and immediately use a sealing plug to seal the hole; 7) After the grouting of one pile is completed, the next pile is constructed in the order of skipping grouting every other hole, and finally all the micro piles of the same batch are completed.

[0046] 9) After 8 to 12 hours, remove the auxiliary pipe by twisting it to expose it to the road surface; 10) After demolition, the small holes are sealed and leveled with cement slurry with a water-cement ratio of 0.4 to 0.6. After completion, water them for natural maintenance.

[0047] 6. Test results Since the 75mm micropiles are mainly controlled by bearing capacity and deformation indicators, the test is mainly carried out on these two indicators.

[0048] 1) Single pile static load test According to the static load test results, the ultimate bearing capacity of the pile body is 60KN when there is no secondary splitting grouting, the bearing capacity is 80KN when there is quantitative grouting, and the bearing capacity is 120KN when there is sufficient grouting. Since the model calculation shows that the bearing capacity of a single pile needs to reach more than 100KN, the entire comparison plan is based on the sufficient grouting plan. According to the static load test results of a single pile, the small-diameter non-expanded pile itself has relatively low indicators, and a large amount of grouting is required to make up for the shortcomings of the pile body itself.

[0049] 2) Load plate test (1) Modulus test results According to the modulus test results, the average deformation modulus of the un-grouting area is 522.3MPa, the average deformation modulus of the soil between piles in the test area is 701.5MPa, and the average deformation modulus of the pile top is 682.3MPa. The modulus of the soil between piles has increased by 1.34 times, and the modulus of the pile top has increased by 1.31 times. Although the overall indicators of small-diameter micropiles have been greatly improved, the improvement is not large, and the grouting volume is large, which cannot meet the design requirements. In addition, through model analysis and field tests, it can be seen that the micropiles themselves play a small role, and are mainly used to strengthen the soil, which causes defects in the model (the modulus of the soil between piles is greater than the modulus of the pile body because the stress diffused in the upper part of the soil between piles covers more of the pile body, resulting in a small difference).

[0050] (2) Deflection test The completion value of the un-grouted area is between 18 and 35, with an average value of 25.5. The deflection settlement values ​​after grouting are shown in Table 2.

[0051] Table 2 Deflection statistics of test area 1 ;

[0052] It can be seen that although the overall deflection has been reduced, the reduction is limited.

[0053] Conclusion: Through model calculation and test results analysis, the scheme described in the comparative example has an overall reinforcement effect on the weak shoulder, but the grouting volume is large, the construction cost is high, and the reinforcement effect is limited, so it is not suitable for adoption.

[0054] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned shoulder micro-pile reinforcement method and structure based on the reconstruction and expansion of the expressway, and performs grouting reinforcement on the contact zone between the water-stabilizing layer and the roadbed and the relatively soft soil below, thereby filling the gaps and improving the physical and mechanical indicators of the soil in this section, forming a complete reinforcement belt, and enhancing the overall stability and stiffness of the road surface.

[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify or replace the technical solution of the present invention with equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
