Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of prevention and control of diseases of pile foundations eroded by thermokarst lakes, and particularly relates to a pile foundation structure for preventing and controlling thermokarst lake erosion and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Under the influence of external disturbance factors, the thickness of the active layer increases in permafrost, and local melting occurs in the underground ice or ice-rich permafrost layer. The surface soil layer subsides accordingly, and the lake ponds formed after water accumulation are called thermokarst lakes. Thermokarst lakes are widely developed in the circum-Arctic region and high mountains in low latitudes. Under the background of global warming, with the accelerating degradation of permafrost, the number of thermokarst lakes increases and the area expands. The latest research data shows that there are more than 161,300 thermokarst lakes developed in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region, with an area exceeding 2,830 km 2 . In this scenario, the infrastructure built in permafrost areas is inevitably affected by thermokarst lakes. Especially for the pile foundation structures of highway or railway bridges, directly affected by the lateral expansion of thermokarst lakes, the pile body is eroded by the lake water for a long time, which will cause damage to the pile foundation and a decrease in bearing capacity, seriously affecting the operation safety of highways or railways. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to carry out research on the prevention and control technology of diseases of pile foundations eroded by thermokarst lakes.

[0003] The lateral expansion of thermokarst lakes will cause the underlying permafrost to melt, resulting in thaw settlement of the pile foundation. At the same time, the erosion of the lake water causes corrosion of the pile foundation structure. At present, for the prevention and control of diseases of pile foundations eroded by thermokarst lakes, it mainly relies on adding cofferdams around the pile foundation to prevent the lake water from contacting the pile body. However, the cofferdams set around the pile body can only prevent the surface lake water from directly contacting the pile foundation and cannot effectively isolate the moisture that penetrates to the periphery of the pile foundation through the active layer.

[0004] In actual engineering, there are still problems such as damage to the pile body caused by lake water erosion and induced decrease in the bearing capacity of the pile foundation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pile foundation structure for preventing and controlling thermokarst lake erosion, which can efficiently achieve the drainage of lake water, prevent the pile foundation structure from being eroded by lake water, and ensure the safety of the superstructure of the pile foundation.

[0010] The drainage holes are arranged on the inclined surface close to the top end I, and the diameter of the drainage holes is 5 to 8 cm.

[0011] The power supply system is arranged at a position 1 to 2 meters below the top of the pile foundation and is composed of a solar or wind power generation device.

[0012] The capillary water conveyance layer is composed of a waterproof layer and a capillary layer in a Γ shape; the waterproof layer is composed of an inclined surface body and a vertical body connected together; the top of the inclined surface body is hermetically connected to the inner surface of the inclined surface in the drainage device; the inner side of the vertical body is attached to the surface of the pile foundation, and the capillary layer is arranged on the outer side; the bottom of the vertical body and the capillary layer are fixed by a clamp in a ┛ shape; the top of the capillary layer extends along the side wall of the fogging pool to the fogging pool in the drainage device.

[0013] The clamp is arranged at the junction of the active layer and the permafrost layer, and its inner diameter is equal to the outer diameter of the pile foundation.

One end of the capillary water conveyance layer 6 is arranged inside the drainage and water collection device 4, and the other end passes through the active layer 1 and is fixed by a clamp 9; several drainage holes 10 are annularly arranged on the upper end surface of the drainage and water collection device 4; the control panel 15 is electrically connected to the power supply system 5.

[0025] Among them: the inner diameter of the drainage and water collection device 4 is equal to the body diameter of the pile foundation 3.

[0026] The drainage and water collection device 4 is of an annular structure and includes a U-shaped frame and an inclined surface connected together; one end of the inclined surface is connected to the side wall of the pile foundation 3, and the other end is connected to the top end Ⅰ of the U-shaped frame; several drainage holes 10 are annularly arranged on the inclined surface; a control panel 15 is arranged on the pile foundation 3 at the top of the inclined surface; the top end Ⅱ of the U-shaped frame is connected to the outer edge of the top of the capillary layer 8 in the capillary water conveyance layer 6; an atomization pond 12 is arranged in the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame, and a floating atomizer 13 is arranged in the atomization pond 12; one end of the floating atomizer 13 is connected to a swing arm 16, and the swing arm 16 is connected to a swing arm support 18 fixed inside the atomization pond 12 through a rotating shaft 17; a fan 14 is arranged in the outer cavity of the atomization pond 12, and the fan 14 and the floating atomizer 13 are respectively connected to the control panel 15 through a power supply line 11.
