Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of goaf grouting, in particular to a refined segmented grouting method for goaf. Background Art
[0002] Goaf grouting involves injecting prepared grouting materials into underground goafs through grouting channels. This forms a cemented mass that supports overlying strata, reduces rock movement, controls ground subsidence, and protects surface structures. It also seals groundwater channels, preventing and controlling water hazards associated with underground engineering construction.
[0003] Currently, goaf grouting primarily utilizes the full-hole filling method. This involves grouting holes throughout the entire area to be grouted. The grouting area is initially filled by pressureless gravity, achieving the initial filling of the goaf. The area to be grouted is then sealed with a grout stopper, and additional grouting is performed using pressurized grouting until the grouting volume and final pressure meet the design requirements. However, the interiors of goafs formed after mineral resource mining are extremely complex. The full-hole filling method does not fully consider the zoning characteristics of the area to be filled. Furthermore, the grouting material is relatively simple, mostly consisting of one of the conventional slurries, such as cement slurry, cement mortar, or concrete. While filling with cement slurry alone yields good results, the cost is high. While filling with concrete alone reduces the cost, the filling effect is unsatisfactory in some areas, such as caving accumulation areas and bedrock fissures. Therefore, current goaf grouting methods fail to achieve a coordinated control of grouting effectiveness and costs. Based on this, a refined segmented grouting method for goaf areas is proposed. On the basis of dividing the goaf areas into regions, different grouting schemes are formulated for different areas to achieve coordinated control of the grouting effect and grouting cost of the goaf areas.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] In order to clearly and completely describe the objectives and technical solutions of the present invention and make the advantages more clearly understood, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them, and are only used to explain the embodiments of the present invention, not to limit the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] See also Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a technical solution: a method for fine segmented grouting in goaf, comprising the following steps: (1) Conduct exploration and core drilling on the surface above the goaf to obtain the lithology and thickness of the goaf. The area to be filled is divided from bottom to top into caving accumulation area, pure void area, roof connection area and bedrock fissure area, and the roof thickness of each grouting hole and the height of different areas are recorded.
[0019] (2) The exploration core drill hole is enlarged and used as a grouting hole. The opening diameter of the grouting hole is 273mm. After drilling to 2-5m of intact bedrock, a 273mm diameter wall protection pipe is installed to protect the wall. The wall protection pipe should be slightly higher than the ground surface. The borehole is then reduced to 245mm in diameter and drilled to the top of the caving accumulation area. Starting from the top of the caving accumulation area, follow-up drilling is carried out using a pipe until 1-2m below the bottom plate of the goaf. The drill bit is withdrawn and the pipe is left in the borehole. The top of the pipe should be slightly higher than the bottom of the goaf roof. The drill bit used for follow-up drilling is a 273mm eccentric drill bit with a pipe diameter of 245mm. The entire pipe is connected in sections by threads, and the top of the pipe is treated with reverse threading to facilitate the subsequent extraction of the borehole after connecting it to the drill pipe.
[0020] (3) Lower the 25mm diameter grouting tube along the wall of the heel pipe to the bottom of the borehole. The lateral grouting hole of the tube should cover the top connection area, the pure empty area, the caving accumulation area, and 1-2m below the caving accumulation area. The top of the tube should be slightly lower than the hole mouth. The tube is divided into two parts: the upper part of the tube is made of steel and the lower part is made of plastic. The connection between the upper and lower parts is located 3-5m above the top connection area. Since the 25mm grouting tube does not participate in the grouting in the early stage, the outer wall of the 25mm grouting tube needs to be wrapped with plastic wrap to prevent the slurry from flowing into the 25mm grouting tube and causing blockage when the main grouting tube is grouting. The top of the tube is blocked with a rubber plug to prevent foreign matter from falling into the tube when the heel pipe is lifted out.
[0021] (4) Connect the follower pipe to the drill pipe through the reverse thread and pull out the follower pipe in sections. After the follower pipe is pulled out, pull out the rubber plug on the top of the flower pipe and connect the top of the flower pipe to the grouting pump through the ground grouting pipeline.
[0022] (5) Lower the 110mm main grouting pipe to the top of the caving accumulation area, and connect the top of the grouting pipe to the grouting pump through the ground grouting pipeline.
[0023] (6) Pressureless filling of pure void area: Use a grouting pump to pump C25 concrete slurry through a 110mm grouting pipe to fill the pure void area from bottom to top. Stop when the slurry level reaches the bottom of the top connection area. Lift the 110mm grouting pipe to the top connection area.
[0024] (7) Pressureless grouting of the joint area: After the pure empty area has been filled for 12 hours, use a grouting pump to pour M15 cement mortar through a 110mm grouting pipe into the joint area without pressure. Stop when the slurry surface reaches 3 to 5 meters above the joint area, and then pull out the 110mm grouting pipe.
[0025] (8) High-pressure splitting grouting: After 48 hours of grouting in the joint area, use a grouting pump to inject M10 cement slurry through the pre-buried 25mm grouting tube to perform high-pressure splitting grouting in the gaps in the caving accumulation area and the gaps formed by the shrinkage of M15 cement mortar and C25 concrete after solidification. Stop when the grouting volume and final pressure meet the design requirements. After the grouting is completed, the upper half (steel pipe) of the 25mm grouting tube is recycled, while the lower half (plastic pipe) is not recycled.
[0026] (9) Filling the bedrock fissures under pressure: Place a 50mm grouting pipe with a grout stopper into the grouting hole. The grout stopper should be located 3-5m below the diameter change zone, and the grout outlet should extend slightly beyond the grout stopper. Use a grouting pump to pump M10 cement slurry through the 50mm grouting pipe to fill the bedrock fissures. Stop grouting when the grouting volume and final pressure meet the design requirements. After the grouting solidifies, reclaim the grouting pipe and grout stopper.
[0027] (10) Sealing the hole: Take out the wall protection pipe from the grouting hole and inject M10 cement slurry into the bottom of the hole through the grouting pump until the cement slurry overflows from the hole mouth.
[0028] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
