Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for installing and removing wet joint formwork of a bridge, which is applicable to the field of bridge formwork construction. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of modern transportation infrastructure, as an important transportation hub, the structural safety and durability of bridges have received increasing attention. During the construction of bridges, the wet joint, as an important part connecting two sections of concrete, its construction quality directly affects the overall performance and service life of the bridge. The wet joint of a bridge refers to the joint formed by wet construction between concrete components of the bridge, especially at the joints between beams and beams, beams and bridge decks, etc. This kind of joint is usually carried out during the concrete pouring process, that is, when pouring new concrete, it is mixed with the existing concrete to form an integral structure.
[0003] During the construction of the wet joint of a bridge, since the wet joint of the bridge is connected to the existing bridge deck, problems such as poor bonding are likely to occur between the newly poured concrete and the existing structure, thus forming cracks, which is a very common problem. How to solve the crack problem of the wet joint of the bridge is a current research hotspot. At present, most scholars believe that the generation of cracks is closely related to the wet joint formwork project. Traditional wet joint formwork construction often lacks a systematic standard process, resulting in unstable construction quality and inaccurate timing of formwork removal, which in turn affects the strength and durability of concrete. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of cracks in the current wet joints of bridges. A method for installing and removing wet joint formwork of a bridge is proposed.
[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by adopting the following technical solutions:
[0006] The steps of a method for installing and removing wet joint formwork of a bridge are as follows:

[0008] The preparation of the preliminary work includes completing the installation of the beam slab bridge, installing the prefabricated beam slab bridge to the designed position, ensuring that all necessary formwork, steel bars, concrete and other construction materials are in place, checking and confirming that their quality meets the design requirements, preparing for the installation of the wet joint formwork, and marking it as A according to the different bridge decks where the wet joint is located i , i = 1 to n;
[0009] S102 Install the wet joint formwork;
[0010] The installation of the wet joint formwork includes using a multi-functional formwork installation trolley for formwork installation work, and the formwork installation work includes formwork positioning, formwork assembly, fixing the formwork, and checking the installation quality;
[0011] S103 Tie the wet joint steel bars;
[0012] The tying of the wet joint steel bars includes carrying out steel bar tying work at the wet joint according to the design requirements. The tying method used for the steel bar tying work is the "cross" tying method, and after the steel bar tying work is completed, a special person conducts an inspection of the steel bar tying quality;
[0013] S104 Carry out concrete pouring work;
[0014] The carrying out of the concrete pouring work includes, during the pouring process, using a concrete vibrator for vibration operation to eliminate the air bubbles in the concrete, evenly pouring the concrete into the formwork, and at the same time, during the concrete pouring process, for wet joint A i Record the pouring ambient temperature T i , humidity H i , concrete strength grade C i ;

[0026] Furthermore, in the above step S104, the concrete pouring work includes using micro-expansion concrete, and the expansion agent dosage of the micro-expansion concrete is 8% - 12% of the total amount of cementitious materials. The contact surface between the new and old concrete is treated by high-pressure water jet scabbing, the scabbing pressure is 50 - 70 MPa, and the scabbing depth is not less than 4 mm to form a uniform exposed aggregate surface.
[0027] Even further, steel fibers are incorporated into the micro-expansion concrete, and the volume fraction of the steel fibers is 1.0% - 1.5%, the length is 30 - 50 mm, and the aspect ratio is 50 - 70.
[0028] Furthermore, in the above step S106, the steps for using the input-output data set C to train the formwork removal time prediction model and finally obtaining a formwork removal time prediction model that meets the requirements are as follows:
[0029] a) Perform data preprocessing on the input-output data set C, and the data preprocessing includes missing value processing, outlier processing, feature encoding, and normalization;
[0030] b) Dataset augmentation, where the dataset augmentation includes processing the input-output dataset C using data augmentation techniques to obtain the augmented dataset D;

[0033] e) Use the training set to train the random forest model to obtain the trained model;
[0034] f) Use the test set to predict the trained model, evaluate the model performance, and optimize the model according to the model performance evaluation results. Finally, the optimized formwork removal time prediction model obtained is the formwork removal time prediction model that meets the requirements.
[0035] Furthermore, the step of processing the input-output dataset C using data augmentation techniques to obtain the augmented dataset D is as follows:
[0036] a) Target class identification, which includes performing statistical analysis on the input-output dataset C to determine the minority class samples that need to be augmented;
[0037] b) Calculate neighboring samples. For each minority class sample, calculate its neighboring samples in the feature space;
[0038] c) Synthesize new samples, which includes randomly selecting one neighboring sample from the k nearest neighbors of each minority class sample, and then calculating a new synthesized sample based on the difference between the randomly selected neighboring sample and the current sample;
[0039] d) Add synthesized samples, which includes adding the newly synthesized minority class samples to the original dataset to finally form the augmented dataset D.
[0040] Furthermore, the steps of model optimization are as follows:
[0041] a) Determine the parameters to be optimized, where the parameters to be optimized are one or more of the number of trees parameter, the maximum depth of the trees parameter, the minimum number of samples required to split a node parameter, and the minimum number of samples required at a leaf node parameter of the random forest model;
[0042] b) Select the optimization method as the grid search algorithm;

[0045] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: Through reasonable preliminary work preparation, standardized formwork installation, steel bar binding, and concrete pouring, this method can ensure the high efficiency and convenience of the entire wet joint construction process, thereby shortening the construction period and saving time and costs. Adopting scientific concrete curing measures and accurate prediction of formwork removal time helps reduce the occurrence of cracks and other quality defects, improve the overall quality of the wet joint, and ensure the structural safety and service life of the bridge. By recording the environmental conditions, strength grades, and curing measures during the concrete pouring process and using machine learning techniques to train the formwork removal time prediction model, it is possible to provide a scientific basis based on data and optimize construction decisions; By using micro-expansion concrete and adding steel fibers to the micro-expansion concrete, the connection strength of the bridge wet joint is further ensured.
