[0058] A construction method for a water - in - water cofferdam structure adjacent to a road includes the following steps:
[0059] Selection of retaining structures
[0060] Combined with the characteristics of the foundation pit project of this project, the vertical retaining structures that can be adopted are: secant pile retaining structure, SMW - method pile (cement - soil pile + inserted steel section) retaining structure.
[0061]
[0062] From the perspective of cost, the SMW - method pile is more reasonable, but the construction requirements for cement - soil mixing piles are relatively high. First, the island - building method is used to build a drilling platform, and there are problems with relatively large particle sizes in the in - situ cement - soil piles; second, once the foundation pit leaks, the cost of leak repair is too high (the amount of backfill grouting is large). From the construction perspective, the secant pile construction method is relatively mature; from the safety perspective, the secant pile construction has a large stiffness, a single construction equipment, less lifting operations, and at the same time, during construction, the full - casing dry - hole drilling is adopted without a mud circulation system, saving site space and reducing environmental pollution.
[0063] Selection of internal support structures
[0064] Common horizontal support structures for foundation pits include cross - braces (including steel supports and reinforced concrete supports), and pre - stressed assembled fish - belly beams in two forms.
[0065]
[0066] The assembled prestressed fish-belly beam steel structure support technology (IPS method) is a new type of internal support structure system for deep foundation pit support developed based on the prestress principle in response to the deficiencies of traditional concrete internal supports and steel supports through a large number of engineering studies and practical applications.
[0067] The plane size of the main pier foundation pit of this project is 43m×40m, approximately square. The conventional steel supports are densely arranged in space, which is not conducive to earth excavation and transportation; while the cast-in-situ construction and demolition of reinforced concrete supports take a lot of time. These two types of horizontal support structure forms cannot meet the construction period requirements. The main pier of the bridge is located at the water-land junction, with half of the foundation pit on the shore and half in the water. The water pressure and soil pressure borne by the retaining structure are not balanced; at the same time, the water level near the river side changes greatly, and the water pressure is also constantly changing. The force on the water-facing side of the retaining structure shows a dynamic change process. Therefore, through the above comparison and selection, the assembled prestressed fish-belly beam steel support is finally selected as the horizontal support structure for the main pier foundation pit of this project.
[0068] Step 1: Island construction;
[0069] Fill the mountain skin soil and hole slag in the river part within the construction scope of the foundation pit. The filling range is 5.0m outside the foundation pit edge, and protect the slope with grouted rubble or fine aggregate concrete; then conduct on-site investigation before island construction, check the on-site hydrogeological conditions, select and prepare cohesive soil materials; then carry out surveying and setting out according to the drawings, cofferdam design, etc., insert benchmark poles to determine the cofferdam position; then the mechanical stone throwing follows the order of "from near to far, from point to line, from shallow water area to deep water area", and gradually layer by layer; then fill and compact the soil. When filling cohesive soil on the cofferdam platform, pay attention to layered filling and compaction. Fill with cohesive soil under the island surface to create conditions for pile foundation construction.
[0070] Step 2: Secant pile construction;
[0071] First, construct the plain concrete pile 6-2, and then construct the reinforced concrete pile 6-1; alternately connect multiple reinforced concrete piles 6-1 and multiple plain concrete piles 6-2 to form a square cofferdam structure; during construction, the strength of the plain concrete pile 6-2 should meet the drilling requirements of the reinforced concrete pile 6-1. During the construction process, according to the temperature conditions and specific equipment conditions, adjusting the dosage of fly ash and retarder to delay the strength growth within a reasonable range is the key; the reinforced concrete pile 6-1 uses slightly expanding concrete, which can effectively prevent the problem of water seepage.
[0072] Step 3: Retaining structure construction;
[0073] Set a retaining block 17 on one side of the square cofferdam structure composed of multiple secant piles 6 close to the road 1, and set a baffle 12 outside the retaining block 17. After the construction of the baffle 12 is completed, drive three cables 7 from top to bottom in time;
[0074] Backfill soil 13 is set on both sides of the square cofferdam structure composed of multiple overlapping bored piles 6 perpendicular to the road 1. Anchor rods 14 are inserted into the backfill soil 13, and a concrete facing 15 is set on the outside. Then, a baffle 12 is set on the outside of the backfill soil 13. After the construction of the baffle 12 is completed, two cables 7 are driven in time from top to bottom;
[0075] A counterfort flood control wall 18 is set on the water-facing side of the square cofferdam structure composed of multiple overlapping bored piles 6;
[0076] After the construction of the baffle 12 is completed, the cable 7 is driven in time. The parameters are as shown in the following table. The cement mortar uses 42.5-grade ordinary Portland cement, and the water-cement ratio is 0.45 - 0.50. The mix ratio of the cement mortar is: cement: water: sand: admixture = 1: 0.47: 2: 0.06 (the admixture is concrete expansion agent).
[0077]
[0078] The parameters of the cable 7 section are as shown in the following table:
[0079]
[0080] Step 4: While excavating, install the internal support mechanism and drive the cable;
[0081] First, drive the first cable 7, then excavate downward, and set a corner brace 8 at the right angle of the square cofferdam structure, and set the first fish-belly beam 9-1 on the four walls of the square cofferdam structure;
[0082] Continue to excavate downward, set the second fish-belly beam 9-2 on the four walls of the square cofferdam structure, and then drive the second cable 7;
[0083] Continue to excavate downward, and then drive the third cable 7;
[0084] Continue to excavate to the required depth, set the column pile 16, connect the upper end of the column pile 16 to the first fish-belly beam 9-1 and the second fish-belly beam 9-2, and then carry out the construction of the bearing platform 5 and the engineering pile 4.
[0085] The prestress of the steel strands of the fish-belly beam 9: According to various working conditions of the foundation pit excavation, calculate the magnitudes of the earth pressure and water pressure acting on the position of the foundation pit side wall. Based on the stress mechanism of the fish-belly beam, then calculate the number of prestressed steel strands and the tension value of a single steel strand.
[0086] Prestress magnitude:
[0087] Required number of steel strands:
[0088] Wherein: P—the tensile force of the steel strand;
[0089] q—the design value of the horizontal load of the fish-belly beam support system;
[0090] L—the net spacing of the fish-belly beam connection part;
[0091] a—the included angle between the steel strand and the upper chord beam;
[0092] n—the required number of steel strands;
[0093] F—the design value of the tensile bearing capacity of a single steel strand.
[0094] Subsequent foundation pit monitoring is also required. Foundation pit monitoring refers to the monitoring of the vertical displacement, settlement, groundwater level, lateral deformation of the soil mass (inclinometer), vertical (horizontal) displacement of the top of the secant pile, vertical (horizontal) displacement of the wall top, axial force of the fish-belly beam support (stress gauge), etc. during the excavation and the construction of the pier foundation. The monitoring frequency is as follows in the table:
[0095]
