Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of steel caisson construction, and in particular to an intelligent construction method for an anchored steel caisson. Background Art
[0002] As bridge construction moves from inland to offshore, construction conditions such as deep water, soft foundation, strong wind, rapid current, waves, and strong earthquakes become more complex. The foundation of a cross-sea bridge is often located in a deep water area, with a thick cover layer of soft soil, sand, clay, and crushed (pebble) stone soil, and there may also be uneven soft (hard) interlayers distributed in the cover layer; for large-span suspension bridges and cable-stayed-suspension cooperative system bridges, in addition to bearing huge vertical forces, they also bear huge oblique tension transmitted by the main cable. The horizontal tension of the main cable of a suspension bridge with a main span of 3,000m exceeds 200,000 tons, and the main cable anchor point is high, which also increases the additional bending moment on the top surface of the anchor foundation.
[0003] The construction project of Xiamen Third East Channel starts near Xiangshan Yacht Club in Siming District of Xiamen Island. The main line goes north along the Ring Island Road to Guanyin Mountain through a tunnel, and then crosses the eastern waters of the island with a bridge to the east. The terminus is connected to the Xiang'an New Airport with an interchange. The Xiang'an branch line is built simultaneously. The total length of the route is about 19.615km, of which the main line is about 17.340km long and the total length of the Xiang'an branch line is about 2.275km. The main bridge Liuwudian Channel Bridge is a suspension bridge with a bridge length of 1948m and a main span length of 928m. The two ends of the main cable are connected and fixed to the east and west anchors. The main construction content of this project is the processing and production of the steel caisson of the east anchor.
[0004] The steel caisson reinforcement ribs of this project are dense, the spacing between the ring plates is 1-1.25m, and there are vertical connections between the ring plates, especially the T-shaped and cross-shaped segment reinforcement structures are particularly complex. The caisson is large in size and has many butt welds, making it difficult to prevent welding shrinkage and deformation. The total height of this project is 35.2m, with a length and width of 66m and 48m respectively. It is divided into seven layers from bottom to top, with a height of 5m per layer. The single-sided caisson steel shell is divided into 197 segments, and the assembly positioning accuracy is difficult to control. The internal structure of the steel caisson partition wall has no integral partition, and the overall structure is supported by angle steel, with weak structural rigidity. The steel caisson segments are easily deformed during lifting, transportation, storage and support in local positions, and the structure is easily deformed. Summary of the invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent construction method for an anchored steel caisson to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0006] (1) In view of the complex internal stiffening structure of the cross-shaped and T-shaped segments of this project, which is prone to parts collision, it is planned to use Tekla software modeling to perform collision checks to determine whether there are collision problems between parts. A three-dimensional diagram will be used at the node position to indicate the direction, position and part number, clarify the assembly sequence, and provide process animation briefings to construction personnel.
[0007] (2) In view of the problem of reduced size caused by the large number of joints in the steel caisson wall panels of this project, the welding shrinkage should be considered in advance. The corresponding welding shrinkage should be added when cutting the parts according to the plate thickness, number of reinforcements and groove form, and the secondary cutting amount should be reasonably set to ensure that the overall dimensional accuracy meets the requirements after welding.
[0008] (3) In view of the large number of sections and the large overall size of this project, which may result in the assembly accuracy not meeting the requirements, it is advisable to use the graded axis centering method to control the overall construction accuracy of the steel caisson, that is, to ensure the overall assembly accuracy of the steel caisson by controlling the axes of each level of the caisson.
[0009] (4) Use finite element calculation software to calculate the deformation of the steel caisson segment during the lifting, transportation and storage process, reasonably set temporary lifting ears and support positions, and set temporary support reinforcement when necessary based on the calculation results.
[0010] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0011] Anchor steel caisson intelligent construction and construction method, the method comprises the following steps:
[0012] Step 1: Steel pretreatment: Before cutting and unloading the steel plate, it is processed through the pretreatment production line, shot blasting and rust removal. After the surface treatment reaches Sa3.0 level, 25-30μm inorganic zinc silicate workshop primer is sprayed. The pretreatment releases the residual stress of the steel plate during the rolling process and ensures that the flatness of the steel plate meets the requirements. At the same time, the workshop primer spraying ensures that the steel plate will not be rusted during the factory construction;
[0013] Step 2: Cutting: All plate parts are cut by CNC plasma or CNC laser cutting machine. 0-8mm welding shrinkage is reserved in the length and width direction of the wall panel unit according to the size of the plate, the number of stiffeners, and the form of the groove. 20mm secondary cutting is reserved in the length direction of the wall panel, and 50mm secondary cutting is reserved in the joint section.
[0014] Step 3: unit component production, including common parts processing, arc wall panel parts processing, truss unit 1 production, truss unit 2 production, common wall panel unit production, second section widening section wall panel unit production, third section arc section right angle unit production, cofferdam temporary internal support unit production;
[0015] Step 4: Fabrication of steel caisson segments. The steel caisson segments include cruciform segments, L-shaped segments, linear segments, and arc-shaped segments. Successively, the segment group welding jig, continuous matching fabrication of segments, fabrication of cruciform segments, fabrication of linear segments, fabrication of L-shaped segments, fabrication of arc-shaped segments, fabrication of the second cruciform segment, fabrication of the second circular segment, fabrication of the third L-shaped segment, fabrication of the third circular segment,
[0016] Step 5: Assembly construction of the steel caisson. When assembling the steel caisson as a whole, start from the middle and assemble towards the surrounding, successively forming a stable structure, and finally close the joints at the four corners. After the assembly is completed, carry out the construction of the next layer;
[0017] Step 6: Carry out welding and painting to complete the construction.
[0018] Furthermore, the specific process in Step 5 is as follows:
[0019] (1) Complete the measurement layout and pier layout as required, and use a total station to复测 the positioning line of the steel caisson and the plane position and elevation of the underlying sleeper;
[0020] (2) After the segment is transported to the lifting area, carry out segment flipping and erection. Use the main hook and auxiliary hook of a 95t crawler crane for flipping. Hang the four steel ropes of the main hook on the upper-side lifting lugs of the segment, and hang the two steel ropes of the auxiliary hook on the turnover lugs. Slowly lift the main hook while keeping the auxiliary hook stationary to complete the segment erection;
[0021] (3) After the segment is flipped and erected, hoist it into place. Coarse-position the segment through the lifting ground sample line, use a magnetic line plumb to check the verticality of the segment, and use a total station to复核 the spatial position of the upper positioning points of the segment. After meeting the requirements, add diagonal supports to fix and prevent the segment from overturning;
[0022] (4) Successively hoist the surrounding segments to form a stable structure in the shape of a "field". After hoisting adjacent segments and accurately positioning them, use an all-round welding trolley to weld the vertical welds between the segments. The welds on both side walls are welded simultaneously from bottom to top. After the welding is completed, use carbon dioxide gas shielded welding to weld the circumferential plate butt joints and other internal welds. After the vertical welds are welded, use carbon dioxide gas shielded welding to weld the bottom plate butt joints. After the overall welding of the segment is completed,复核 whether the axis deviation of the segment exceeds the allowable value, and make corrections according to the复核 results. Then hoist the next segment until all the segments in the first layer are hoisted;
[0023] (5) After the first-layer segment is hoisted and welded and inspected to be qualified, the blade angle concrete is poured. After the concrete pouring is completed, the second-layer segment is hoisted. The vertical welds of the wall panels and the ring plate welds are welded according to the welding sequence in step 4. After the vertical welds of the wall panels are welded, the horizontal welds of the first and second steel caisson ring plates are welded. The horizontal welds of the ring plates on both sides are welded by two trackless full-position crawling welding robots at the same time in the segment hoisting direction. After the welding of the inter-segment welds is completed, check whether the segment axis exceeds the allowable value, make corrections based on the review results, and then hoist the next segment until all the second-layer segments are hoisted;
[0024] (6) Repeat step (5) until all the steel caisson segments of the third section are assembled;
[0025] (7) After the first segment of the 4th floor is hoisted and accurately positioned, positioning welding is performed, and diagonal braces are added on the inner side of the segment to prevent the segment from overturning. Two trackless all-position crawling welding robots are used to perform circumferential seam welding in the segment hoisting direction at the same time; after the adjacent segments are hoisted and accurately positioned for positioning welding, and after being reinforced with diagonal braces, two omnidirectional welding trolleys are used to weld the vertical welds between the segments. The welds of the wall panels on both sides are welded from bottom to top at the same time. After welding is completed, carbon dioxide gas shielded welding is used to weld the ring plate butt joints and other internal welds. After the vertical seam welding is completed, two trackless all-position crawling welding robots are used to perform circumferential seam welding in the segment hoisting direction at the same time; the subsequent segments are installed in sequence until all the segments of the fourth steel caisson are hoisted;
[0026] (8) Remove the diagonal rod, hoist the temporary support positioning bracket, weld it, and hoist the inner support intermediate unit;
[0027] (9) Hoist the remaining steel pipes of the fourth section inner support and complete welding;
[0028] (10) The fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted in sequence. Due to the high height, it is not possible to use the inclined support method for temporary support when hoisting the fifth section. After the section is positioned, the hook is loosened but not removed. The vertical horse plate between the sections must be increased from the original 500mm per line to 300mm per line, and the intermittent welding of the transverse seam on the outer side of the steel shell is completed after more than 50% of the hook is removed, and the next section is hoisted until the fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted and welded. After the fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted and welded, the inner support steel pipe is installed;
[0029] (11) Repeat step (10) to complete the hoisting of the sixth to seventh steel caisson segments;
[0030] (12) Install the truss-type internal supports in sections. First, install the long-side internal supports of the steel caisson, and then install the short-side truss-type internal supports in sections.
[0031] Furthermore, the ERP management system is used for intelligent management in the production of unit components in step 3. The ERP management system consists of a warehouse management system, a project management system, model visualization management, a cloud nesting system and a cloud cutting system, covering the entire production process from the arrival of raw materials to the production of steel caissons, allowing different departments and positions to work together on the same platform, reducing intermediate transmission links, sharing departmental results in real time, and mastering material inventory, production status, shipping progress, and project dynamics in real time.
[0032] Furthermore, in step 5, a three-dimensional laser scan is performed for virtual pre-assembly before assembly, and the steel caisson segments are three-dimensionally scanned. The construction error can be obtained and corrected by comparing the point cloud model generated by the scan with the theoretical model. The point cloud models of adjacent segments can also be virtually pre-assembled to understand the matching between the segments in advance, thereby guiding the assembly of the steel caisson segments.
[0033] Furthermore, in step 6, the welding is performed by automatic tracking welding using a railless full-position crawling welding robot. When the steel plate panels are assembled and reinforced in step 3, the steel plate leveling and docking and the stiffening rib assembly can be completed by utilizing codeless assembly equipment and adjusting the foot cup, the top head and the magnetic controller.
[0034] Furthermore, in step 5, the internal stiffening structure of the cross-shaped and T-shaped segments is relatively complex, and parts collision is prone to occur. It is planned to use Tekla software modeling to perform collision checks to determine whether there are collision problems among parts, and use three-dimensional diagrams at the node positions to indicate the direction, position and part number, and to clarify the assembly sequence.
[0035] Furthermore, in step 6, the problem of size reduction caused by the butt joint of the steel caisson wall panel being larger than the set value should be considered in advance. The corresponding welding shrinkage should be added when cutting the parts according to the plate thickness, number of reinforcements and groove form, and the secondary cutting amount should be set to ensure the overall size after welding.
[0036] The present invention has the following beneficial effects due to the adoption of the above technical solution:
[0037] In view of the fact that the internal stiffening structure of the cross-shaped and T-shaped segments of this project is relatively complex and parts collision is prone to occur, the present invention intends to use Tekla software modeling to perform collision checks to determine whether there are collision problems with parts, and use three-dimensional diagrams at the node positions to indicate the direction, position and part number, clarify the assembly sequence, and provide process animation briefings to construction personnel; in view of the problem that the steel caisson wall panels of this project have many joints that cause size reduction, the welding shrinkage should be considered in advance, and the corresponding welding shrinkage should be added when the parts are cut according to the plate thickness, the number of stiffeners and the groove form, and the secondary cutting amount should be reasonably set to ensure that the overall dimensional accuracy after welding meets the requirements. In view of the fact that there are many segments in this project and the overall size is large, which may cause the assembly accuracy to not meet the requirements, it is advisable to use the graded axis centering method to control the overall construction accuracy of the steel caisson, that is, to ensure the overall assembly accuracy of the steel caisson by controlling the axes of each level of the caisson. Finite element calculation software is used to calculate the deformation of the steel caisson segments during the hoisting, transportation and storage process, and temporary lifting ears and support positions are reasonably set. Temporary support reinforcement is set when necessary according to the calculation results. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. However, it should be noted that many details listed in the specification are only for the purpose of enabling the reader to have a thorough understanding of one or more aspects of the present invention, and these aspects of the present invention can be implemented even without these specific details.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the intelligent construction and construction method of anchored steel caisson comprises the following steps:
[0047] Step 1: Steel pretreatment. Before cutting and unloading the steel plate, it is processed through the pretreatment production line and shot blasted to remove rust. After the surface treatment reaches Sa3.0 level, 25-30μm inorganic zinc silicate workshop primer is sprayed. The pretreatment releases the residual stress of the steel plate during the rolling process and ensures that the flatness of the steel plate meets the requirements. At the same time, the workshop primer spraying ensures that the steel plate will not be rusted during factory construction.
[0048] The components of steel caissons are divided into angle steels, plates, I-beams and H-shaped steel parts, among which angle steel parts and plates are the largest in number. The cutting of angle steel parts must not only ensure the length but also require the ends to be cut and angled. Some angle steels also require the flanges to be rounded, which makes cutting difficult. Steel plate parts mainly include ring plates, wall plates and node plates, with thickness ranging from 8 to 36 mm. The ends of I-beams and H-shaped steel parts need to be cut into interfaces that can be nested with each other, which not only requires high cutting accuracy, but also requires cutting welding grooves.
[0049] Steel plate parts are cut using a 30,000-watt digital intelligent CNC laser cutting machine. The equipment has the functions of part cutting, marking, and coding, and the maximum plate thickness is 45mm. Laser cutting has a small heat input to the steel plate, and the deformation of the cut parts is small; it has high efficiency (theoretical output 4,000t / month); high cutting accuracy (deviation is only ±0.5mm), and is the most advanced equipment for cutting steel structure parts. An information hardware module is configured on the laser cutting equipment to receive task information, and can retrieve and view cutting programs, typesetting files and other materials to improve part cutting efficiency and cutting accuracy. Based on the Internet of Things, the network management of CNC equipment, the instructions are transmitted from the Internet, and the USB disk copy is eliminated.
[0050] Steel shell parts are classified by material and plate thickness, and are automatically nested using intelligent automatic nesting software (sinoCAM), which improves material utilization, saves raw materials, and can fully dispatch various intelligent equipment in the cutting workshop; remotely control the digital intelligent laser CNC cutting machine cutting equipment, and collect equipment data such as power, gas volume, and machine tool operating status in real time; real-time monitoring of cutting progress in the event of equipment failure, real-time feedback on sorting progress, etc.
[0051] There are three processing requirements for cutting angle steel parts. The first is the wall plate angle steel, which only needs to be cut to length; the second is the truss angle steel, which not only needs to be cut to length, but also needs to be cut at the angle; the third is the partition plate angle steel, which needs to be cut to length and rounded at the same time. According to different angle steel processing requirements, different equipment can be coordinated to form an angle steel processing line to improve cutting efficiency and accuracy.
[0052] The angle steel is cut to length using a large-scale sawing machine from Kabach. This intelligent sawing machine is controlled by an advanced CNC system and can realize a fully automatic cycle from material collection and feeding to sawing. It can also automatically complete the processes of collecting the head and tail of the material and finished workpieces. The cutting angle can be from -50° to 60°. According to the angle steel specifications of this project, after repeated experiments, it was found that the efficiency is highest when 35 angle steels are cut at the same time. One cutting can be completed in 30 minutes, and the monthly production capacity can reach 1,000 tons.
[0053] Some angle steels are sawn by length in the sawing production line and transported here for angle steel cutting. The angle steel cutting process cannot be completed by ordinary sawing machines, and a large number of angle steels need to be cut in this project, so the angle steel cutting production line is activated. The angle steel is cut by a hydraulic combined punching and shearing machine. The punching and shearing machine punches and shears square steel, round steel, channel steel, I-beam and angle steel. The maximum angle steel specification that the punching and shearing machine can punch and shear is L160×14mm, which meets the use requirements of this project. The angle cutting of the punching and shearing machine can not only ensure the quality of the incision, but also greatly improve the efficiency of angle cutting. Compared with traditional sawing or flame cutting, angle steel punching can increase the construction efficiency by more than 4 times.
[0054] Angle steel rounding is cut using a fiber laser cutting machine. Fiber lasers have been a hot topic in the laser field in recent years. In the processing field, fiber lasers have a tendency to rapidly replace traditional YAG and C02 lasers. Fiber lasers have many unique advantages: good beam quality; small size, light weight, maintenance-free; simple and easy to operate with air cooling; low operating cost, can be used in industrial environments; long life, high processing accuracy, fast speed; high power conversion efficiency, can achieve intelligent, automated, flexible operation, etc.
[0055] The advantages of laser cutting machines are small thermal deformation, high cutting accuracy, low noise, no pollution, and easy automatic cutting. As an advanced manufacturing technology, laser cutting has the advantages of wide application range, flexible process, high processing accuracy, good quality, clean production process, easy to realize automation, flexibility, intelligence, and improve product quality and labor productivity.
[0056] I-beam and H-beam parts are cut and blanked by laser steel cutting machine. According to the length of the parts, the motion trajectory of the steel laser cutting machine is compiled, and the motion trajectory is parameterized according to the different cutting surfaces of different parts to ensure the cutting quality of the cutting surface. On the premise of meeting the cutting efficiency and quality, generate the programming file and import the file into the control system; start the control program, and the steel laser cutting machine will run according to the motion trajectory specified by the program; if other cutting surfaces need to be cut, all cutting surface programming will be imported into the system, and the cutting control program will be used in the system for the cutting type; and the same steel can use one program to cut multiple different cutting surfaces, which is very flexible and convenient. It can simultaneously realize a variety of cumbersome processes such as cutting, hole cutting, groove cutting, marking and marking, and opening of welding holes.

[0092] (2) Regular inspection and replacement
[0093] Parts inspection and replacement: The parts of the sawing machine, such as saw blades, hydraulic oil, filter presses and cutters, need to be inspected and replaced regularly. The saw blades should be inspected for warping, wear and dullness, and expired or damaged saw blades should be replaced in time. Equipment status inspection: During use, you should always pay attention to the operation of the various operating parts of the sawing machine and check for abnormal sounds or vibrations. If any, find the cause and eliminate it in time.
[0094] (3) Lubrication system maintenance
[0095] Lubrication points: Lubrication should be added to the guide rail surface and lubrication points to ensure smooth operation of all parts. For CNC woodworking saws, dust should be considered during lubrication, the amount of lubrication should be appropriately reduced, and key parts such as guide rails should be kept clean and lubricated.
[0096] Steel caisson, such as Figure 6 As shown:
[0097] Steel caisson: The east anchor caisson is 25m high and is divided into 5 sections from bottom to top, each section is 5m high; the 1st to 3rd sections of the east anchor steel caisson are composed of a well wall and a partition wall. Each steel caisson has 24 well holes surrounded by the well wall and the partition wall on the plane; except for the 2nd section, the well wall is 2.0m thick, the partition wall is 1.3m thick, and the connection between the partition wall and the well wall and the partition wall is set with a 1.5m×1.5m chamfer.

[0103] The processing of steel caissons attempts to use the ERP management system for intelligent management. The system is mainly composed of a warehouse management system, a project management system, model visualization management, cloud nesting and cloud cutting systems, etc. It can cover the entire production process from the arrival of raw materials to the production of steel caissons. It allows different departments and positions to work together on the same platform, reduce intermediate transmission links, share departmental results in real time, and grasp material inventory, production status, shipping progress, and project dynamics in real time.
[0104] The WMS warehouse management system has the characteristics of fast warehousing and outgoing, dual warehouse management, barcode application, inventory sharing, and rapid cost statistics. The system has complete subject configuration and can quickly handle the incoming and outgoing of materials without too much operation. The project warehouse and the public warehouse are strictly distinguished, which can ensure that project materials are exclusive and dedicated, and can also ensure the normal outgoing of other projects without interfering with each other, independent accounting, and clear accounts. At the same time, the system barcodes materials to facilitate inventory and tracking of materials, realizing true intensive material management.
[0105] The PMIS project management system does not need to fill out cumbersome process transfer forms. The EPR intelligent management system automatically determines the processing process of the component according to the component category, and automatically transfers to the next process after the previous process is completed. Combined with the one-item-one-code error prevention and correction rule, it ensures that each product process not only achieves high-efficiency flow, but also prevents any wrong or missing parts from occurring.
[0106] CAM+CNC cloud cutting system, the traditional transmission of CNC cutting data requires the use of a USB flash drive to copy the cutting instructions to the CNC cutting machine. Now through the cloud cutting system, the cutting machine can be slightly modified to complete the remote transmission of CNC codes. At the same time, workers can work according to the cutting instructions, which can not only improve efficiency but also reduce the error rate.
[0107] The visual model, through the reading, classification and sharing of "one model to the end", realizes the high integration of in-depth drawings and models, making it "simplified" for the project participating departments to look through drawings and check lists. Click the component number, and the 3D graphics and 2D drawings will be immediately presented, showing the relative relationship of the 3D model geometric components in space, while showing the 2D graphics expressing the detailed structure and marked dimensions. "The complementary display of numbers, drawings and models allows non-professionals to easily check and compare. It realizes the integration of design, production and installation.
[0108] This project uses Tekla Structures for BIM modeling, establishes a BIM solid model at a 1:1 ratio, and conducts digital process layout, layout, and welding design based on the BIM model. At the same time, it provides various data such as component lists, part numbers, and material procurement lists to support the project's digital process design, scientific scheduling, production progress, and information management.
[0109] Based on the in-depth model data of BIM, the parts cutting files are exported from the model, and Tekla Structures BIM modeling software is used for lofting and welding process design.

[0111] SmartNest automatic nesting software is used to layout and nest steel plates, automatically calculate the optimal size within the specified range, and achieve the highest material utilization and the most economical purchase batch, which is suitable for rapid material delivery. At the same time, according to different processing equipment process parameters and cost sharing methods, the software generates the cost of cutting materials at the same time as the layout is completed, which is used for project budgeting or outsourcing cost estimation. The software integrates multiple processes such as drawing conversion, material budgeting, plan management, automatic layout, process optimization, cost forecasting, surplus material management, and production control.
[0112] Backpack portable laser rust removal equipment
[0113] The relatively fluffy rust layer on the surface of the object is physically blasted and cracked, and the high-speed spot moves to form a plume to discharge the cleaning debris to complete the cleaning. At the same time, the high-energy pulse laser is focused on the surface of the object to be cleaned, and the irregular structures such as dirty rust and dark surfaces absorb the laser energy and the plasma energy formed on the metal surface, and are instantly vaporized and separated from the parent material.
[0114] The backpack portable laser cleaning machine integrates light size, easy operation, efficient cleaning, non-contact and pollution-free. It is used to clean rust on cast iron and carbon steel plates, oil on stainless steel and mold gears, and oxides on aluminum plates and stainless steel paint. The cleaning effect is smooth and does not damage the parent material.
[0115] This equipment is mainly used in the dock assembly site. During the on-site assembly, the steel caisson is in a vertical state. The interface weld position is not convenient for large-scale sandblasting and does not meet environmental protection requirements. Using a portable laser rust remover to remove rust from the weld position has high rust removal efficiency and improves construction efficiency. On the other hand, it can meet the environmental and water protection requirements of on-site construction, and at the same time, it can realize the application of new technologies in steel structure products and promote the application of new technologies and new processes.
[0116] Stationary welding robot
[0117] Firstly, the motion trajectory of the welding robot is calculated according to the single weld in the steel caisson. The motion trajectory is parameterized according to the connection method between different components to ensure the welding quality. The parameterized trajectories are combined in order to minimize the welding deformation while meeting the welding quality of a single weld. Finally, the control program is written.
[0118] Input the control program into the robot's controller and start the control program. The robot will then complete the actions specified by the program step by step. If the task changes, you only need to modify or rewrite the control program.
[0119] In this project, welding robots are mainly used for the welding of ring plate units. The angles of the angle steels of the ring plate units are different, which makes it inconvenient to use semi-automatic welding equipment, and the weld length is relatively short. The general structure of the ring plate units is basically the same. The application of welding robots can maximize the construction efficiency.
[0120] Fiber laser steel cutting machine
[0121] Fiber lasers have been a hot topic in the laser field in recent years. In the field of processing, fiber lasers have a tendency to rapidly replace traditional YAG and C02 lasers. Fiber lasers have many unique advantages: good beam quality; small size, light weight, maintenance-free; simple and easy to operate with air cooling; low operating cost, can be used in industrial environments; long life, high processing precision, fast speed; high power conversion efficiency, can realize intelligent, automated, flexible operation, etc.
[0122] The advantages of laser cutting machines are: small thermal deformation, high cutting accuracy, low noise, no pollution, and easy automatic cutting. As an advanced manufacturing technology, laser cutting has the advantages of wide application range, flexible process, high processing accuracy, good quality, clean production process, easy to realize automation, flexibility, intelligence, and improve product quality and labor productivity.
[0123] The angle steels of the ring plate unit and the wall plate unit connected to the partition plate in this project need to be cut and cut. Conventional steel equipment can only process angle steels at a single angle, which is inefficient and requires improved cutting accuracy. The application of laser steel cutting machine can ensure the cutting quality of angle steel and improve construction efficiency.
[0124] Magnetic codeless assembly equipment
[0125] When assembling and reinforcing steel plates or plate units, the leveling and docking of steel plates and the assembly of stiffening ribs can be completed by using the codeless assembly equipment and adjusting the foot cup, the top head and the magnetic controller. Codeless assembly equipment replaces the traditional welding code plate assembly, and there is no damage to the parent material caused by hammer marks, iron tips and code points. There is no need to grind weld scars or repair welding. It can be operated by one person, has light weight, high safety factor, simple and fast operation, simple maintenance, cost saving, and green environmental protection.
[0126] The equipment is intended to be used in the assembly process of the wall panel units of this project. It can improve the construction efficiency while meeting the requirements for angle steel assembly accuracy.
[0127] Railless all-position crawling welding robot
[0128] The whole set of equipment adopts a wheel-crawler crawling structure, and the equipped visual tracking system allows the robot to crawl freely on vertical surfaces or curved surfaces without tracks, and realizes autonomous tracking of welds; at the same time, the high-dynamic industrial camera adopted can realize the operator's real-time monitoring of the molten pool, and the remote monitoring distance can reach 15 meters. In addition, the equipment adopts a removable ceramic liner pasted on the back, which can realize single-sided welding and double-sided forming of the weld, ensuring stable welding quality and beautiful forming. It is especially suitable for the assembly and installation of steel structures with complex structures and large welding volume, such as steel linings.
[0129] During the on-site assembly of the steel caisson, the butt welds of the outer wall panels have both vertical and horizontal welding positions. The magnetic welding robot is not affected by the welding position and can meet the welding requirements of both vertical and horizontal welding positions. It is easy to operate and one person can operate multiple machines at the same time, which improves construction efficiency. Compared with manual welding, the welding parameters of the machine welding method are more stable, and the physical quality and appearance quality of the weld are guaranteed.
[0130] 3D laser scanning virtual pre-assembly
[0131] The steel caisson of the East Anchor of Xiamen's Third East Channel has the characteristics of large volume, multiple segments, and multiple processes. It requires high construction control precision, is difficult to control, and is difficult to pre-assemble. In this regard, this project introduces 3D laser scanner automatic measurement technology to perform 3D scanning on some steel caisson segments. It can not only obtain construction errors and make corrections by comparing the point cloud model generated by the scan with the theoretical model, but also understand the matching between segments in advance by virtually pre-assembling the point cloud models of adjacent segments, and guide the assembly of steel caisson segments.
[0132] Due to the disadvantage of 3D scanning technology, which requires a lot of data collection and processing, this project mainly scans arc segments that are more difficult to make, generates scanning data and performs virtual pre-assembly. The combination of physical assembly and virtual pre-assembly verifies the assembly quality of virtual pre-assembly on the one hand, and the assembly quality of physical assembly on the other hand.

The foundation is cast with C35 concrete. The longitudinal steel bars and stirrups are arranged inside the foundation. The steel bars are all φ12mm threaded steel bars. φ20mm elbow anchor bolts are embedded inside the foundation to fix the tracks and foundation to meet the use requirements of the gantry crane. The assembled pier is made of φ325×8 steel pipes.
[0155] Step 5: Steel caisson assembly construction. When assembling the steel caisson as a whole, assemble from the middle to the surrounding areas to form a stable structure in sequence, and finally close the four corners. After the assembly is completed, proceed to the next layer of construction. Figure 2-3 As shown, the specific process is as follows:
[0156] (1) Complete the measurement layout and pier layout as required, and use a total station to复测 the positioning line of the steel caisson and the plane position and elevation of the underlying sleeper blocks.
[0157] (2) After the segment is transported to the hoisting area, perform segment flipping and erection. Use the main hook and auxiliary hook of a 95t crawler crane for flipping. Hang the four steel ropes of the main hook on the upper-side hoisting lugs of the segment, and hang the two steel ropes of the auxiliary hook on the turning lugs. Slowly lift the main hook while keeping the auxiliary hook stationary to complete the segment erection.
[0158] (3) After the segment is flipped and erected, hoist it into place. Coarse-position the segment through the ground hoisting line, use a magnetic plumb bob to check the verticality of the segment, and use a total station to复核 the spatial position of the upper positioning points of the segment. After meeting the requirements, add diagonal braces to fix and prevent the segment from overturning.
[0159] (4) Hoist the surrounding segments in sequence to form a cross-shaped stable structure. After hoisting adjacent segments and accurately positioning them, use an all-round welding trolley to weld the vertical welds between the segments. The welds on both side walls are welded simultaneously from bottom to top. After welding is completed, use CO₂ gas shielded welding to weld the butt joints of the ring plates and other internal welds. After the vertical welds are welded, use CO₂ gas shielded welding to weld the butt joints of the bottom plates. After the overall welding of the segment is completed,复核 whether the axis deviation of the segment exceeds the allowable value, and make corrections according to the复核 results. Then hoist the next segment until all the segments of the first layer are hoisted.
[0160] (5) After the hoisting and welding of the first-layer segments are completed and inspected to be qualified, pour the concrete of the cutting edge. After the concrete pouring is completed, hoist the second-layer segments, and weld the vertical welds of the wall plates and the ring plate welds according to the welding sequence in step (4). After the vertical welds of the wall plates are welded, weld the transverse welds of the ring plates between the first and second steel caissons. The two transverse welds of the ring plates on both sides are welded simultaneously by two trackless all-position crawling welding robots in the segment hoisting direction. After the welds between the segments are welded,复核 whether the axis of the segment exceeds the allowable value, and make corrections according to the复核 results. Then hoist the next segment until all the segments of the second layer are hoisted.
[0161] (6) Repeat step (5) until the assembly construction of all the steel caisson segments of the third section is completed.
[0162] (7) After the first segment of the 4th floor is hoisted and accurately positioned, positioning welding is performed, and diagonal braces are added on the inner side of the segment to prevent the segment from overturning. Two trackless all-position crawling welding robots are used to perform circumferential seam welding in the segment hoisting direction at the same time; after the adjacent segments are hoisted and accurately positioned for positioning welding, and after being reinforced with diagonal braces, two omnidirectional welding trolleys are used to weld the vertical welds between the segments. The welds of the wall panels on both sides are welded from bottom to top at the same time. After welding is completed, carbon dioxide gas shielded welding is used to weld the ring plate butt joints and other internal welds. After the vertical seam welding is completed, two trackless all-position crawling welding robots are used to perform circumferential seam welding in the segment hoisting direction at the same time; the subsequent segments are installed in sequence until all the segments of the fourth steel caisson are hoisted;
[0163] (8) Remove the diagonal rod, hoist the temporary support positioning bracket, weld it, and hoist the inner support intermediate unit;
[0164] (9) Hoist the remaining steel pipes of the fourth section inner support and complete welding;
[0165] (10) The fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted in sequence. Due to the high height, it is not possible to use the inclined support method for temporary support when hoisting the fifth section. After the section is positioned, the hook is loosened but not removed. The vertical horse plate between the sections must be increased from the original 500mm per line to 300mm per line, and the intermittent welding of the transverse seam on the outer side of the steel shell is completed after more than 50% of the hook is removed, and the next section is hoisted until the fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted and welded. After the fifth section of the steel caisson is hoisted and welded, the inner support steel pipe is installed;
[0166] (11) Repeat step (10) to complete the hoisting of the sixth to seventh steel caisson segments;
[0167] (12) Install the truss-type internal supports in sections. First, install the long-side internal supports of the steel caisson, and then install the short-side truss-type internal supports in sections.
[0168] Step 6: Welding and painting.
[0169] Characteristics of steel caisson welding: (1) The wall panel unit stiffening angle steel is dense and the wall panel is thin, so controlling welding deformation is the key during welding. (2) The cross-shaped and L-shaped node position ring plates and supporting angle steels form truss partitions, and the internal space is small, making assembly welding difficult. (3) The Quanzhou assembly base is located in a coastal environment with frequent strong winds, so wind protection is required during welding.
[0170] Principles for selecting welding schemes: Based on the characteristics and quality requirements of this project, the basic principle for determining the welding process scheme is: Under the premise of ensuring welding quality, try to use welding processes with small welding deformation and small weld shrinkage. The wall panel unit adopts an anti-deformation automatic welding machine for assembly welding, and the truss unit adopts an intelligent welding robot. Various types of automation and intelligent welding equipment are used to ensure welding quality and improve production efficiency.
[0171] (1) The welding method is mainly automatic welding to ensure the stability of welding quality. Select welding materials that match the parent material, control the diffusible hydrogen content in the weld, and ensure that all indicators of the weld meet the design requirements.
[0172] (2) Some of the angle steels between the truss units are used as buffer parts, and the angle steels at the node positions are welded by retreating.
[0173] (3) Prepare a comprehensive and reasonable welding process assessment test plan based on the structural characteristics to determine the appropriate groove form, welding method, welding equipment, welding materials, preheating temperature, interlayer temperature and process parameters, etc. After the review is passed, it will serve as the basis for preparing the welding process documents.
[0174] Welding process requirements: 1. Welding environment requirements

Only those who pass the test can take up their posts; (4) The welding materials are baked according to the specifications and issued, used and recycled according to the welding material management system; (5) Before welding, rust, oil stains, oxides, etc. on the groove surface and both sides of the groove must be thoroughly cleaned, and both sides of the groove must be cleaned; (6) When the welding environment is not available, appropriate measures must be taken; (7) The welding equipment must be debugged before welding.
[0177] 3. Requirements for tack welding: (1) The welding materials used for tack welding should match the workpiece to be welded; (2) The tack weld should be kept uniform, and the weld leg size and weld length should be in accordance with the requirements of the process documents. The surface of the tack weld is not allowed to have defects such as cracks and lack of fusion; (3) The tack weld should be more than 30 mm away from the end of the workpiece, and its length should be 50 to 100 mm; the spacing should be 400 to 600 mm; the weld leg size of the tack weld should not be greater than 1 / 2 of the designed weld leg size.

When welding multiple layers and multiple passes, the joints should be staggered, and the coating and spatter of the upper layer should be cleaned before the subsequent welds can be welded; (2) The arc starter plate and arc extinguishing plate should be installed at the end of the butt weld using submerged arc welding. After welding, the arc starter and arc extinguishing plates are not allowed to be removed by hammering or other methods. Flame cutting should be used, and a 1-3mm margin should be left. The plates should be ground with a grinder until they are flush with the parent material; (3) When preheating is required, welding is allowed only after preheating according to the process requirements. The preheating range shall not be less than 100mm on both sides of the weld. The temperature measurement point is on the back of the heated side, 50mm away from the weld. During the welding process, the layer temperature shall not be lower than the preheating temperature. Each weld should be welded in one go as much as possible. When welding is interrupted, appropriate slow cooling measures should be taken. When re-welding, it can only be carried out after preheating as required; (4) When CO2 gas shielded welding is used on site, strict and reliable wind and rain protection measures must be taken, and the purity of CO2 gas must not be lower than 99.5% (5) For welds that require root cleaning by gas gouging, the root defects of the front weld must be completely removed, the depth and width of the gas gouging must be uniform, and the root should have at least an arc of R ≥ 6mm; (6) If major welding quality problems are found during welding, welding must be stopped immediately and reported to the welding engineer and the supervising engineer. Welding can only be continued after the cause of the problem is found and preventive measures and solutions are proposed.
[0179] 5. Control of overhead welds in the factory: (1) The overhead welds of the factory segments are the fillet welds between the wall panels and the ring panels. The space between the two layers of wall panels and the trusses is large, so welders can easily complete the overhead welding task; (2) When welding overhead welds, welding must be carried out strictly in accordance with the welding parameters evaluated by the welding process to ensure welding quality; (3) Detailed technical instructions are provided to the welders of overhead welds; (4) Overhead weld welders must hold a welder certificate and pass the welder examination for this project before they can start welding. According to the design drawings and manufacturing process of the steel caisson, the main types of welds in this project are butt welds and T-type fillet welds, which are mainly the butt welds of the bottom plate / wall panel, the fillet welds of the wall panel and the ring panel, and the fillet welds of the angle steel and the ring panel. Controlling welding deformation mainly involves setting pre-deformation, adjusting the welding sequence and welding direction, and rigid constraints to control deformation, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0180] In order to ensure the quality of welding and ensure that the various properties of the welded joints meet the design requirements, strict control will be exercised in terms of people, machines, materials, methods, and environment to ensure the quality of welding. When welding the weld, windproof measures such as wind shields will be added. When the ambient humidity is too high, preheating before welding and adding rain shelters and other moisture-proof measures will be carried out.

Welders who fail to weld again shall be dismissed.
[0183] Steel caisson assembly welding protection measures, due to welding environment requirements, generally stop construction in rainy days, if the progress requires rush work, in addition to local heating and wind protection, the entire weld must be placed under the protection of an effective wind and rain shelter before construction. When welding the vertical welds of the wall panels on site, set up magnetic windshield strips on the outside of the cage for protection.

Re-painting, grind the reserved parts and damaged parts of the segment assembly weld to make their rust removal level and surface roughness meet the requirements of the specifications, and apply re-paint layer by layer by brushing according to the coating system.
[0188] Segment transportation and storage: According to the construction process and construction plan of the steel caisson for the east anchor of the A1 section of the Xiamen Third Channel, the steel caisson will be temporarily stored after being manufactured at the manufacturing and processing base. The steel caisson will be transported according to the construction schedule and transported to the Quanzhou processing base for overall assembly. The height of the second cross-shaped segment is 4.8m and cannot be transported as a whole by land. Therefore, the second cross-shaped segment needs to be made into segments with the two sides of the straight part, and the cross joints are made into plate units for transportation. After being transported to the dock, they are assembled into segments at the dock. The caisson segments are transported by road. The company will select transportation units with sufficient transportation capacity, good reputation and long-term cooperation with the company to undertake the transportation of steel structures.
