With the development of society and the increasing number of vehicles, the load-bearing capacity of the roadbed has become increasingly demanding. With the ongoing road construction in various regions, areas with soft soil are often encountered. These areas must be reinforced to meet vehicle travel requirements.

On this basis, it may not be possible to fix the reinforcement piles and the barbs in the reinforcement piles in the soil alone, causing the position of the first support plate to shift, and ultimately causing the road surface to collapse or become uneven.

A through hole for the movement of the barbs is also provided on the side wall of the pile shell. The driving column is slidably installed inside the pile shell and is located on the upper side of the movable plate. The driving column is a cone that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. When the driving column moves downward, it can drive the movable plate to move and allow the barbs to pass through the through hole. A plurality of flexible branches are installed on the end of the barb away from the movable plate, and the angle between the axis of the barb and the axis of the flexible branch increases step by step from top to bottom, and the length of the flexible branch increases step by step from top to bottom.
[0007] Furthermore, the length of the barbs in the upper layer is 8-10 cm, the length of the flexible branches is 3 cm, and the angle between the axis of the flexible branches and the axis of the barbs is 20 degrees; the length of the barbs in the middle layer is 12-15 cm, the length of the flexible branches is 5 cm, and the angle between the axis of the flexible branches and the axis of the barbs is 40 degrees; the length of the barbs in the lower layer is 15-20 cm, the length of the flexible branches is 8 cm, and the angle between the axis of the flexible branches and the axis of the barbs is 50 degrees.

[0013] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages: First, the present invention addresses the following characteristics of soft soil roadbeds with high humidity: surface soil: low humidity, with a certain degree of hardness, but prone to cracking; middle soil: with increasing humidity, the soil gradually softens and its bearing capacity decreases; deep soil: close to saturation, with strong fluidity and poor anchoring strength; short upper flexible branches with small angles penetrate the hard crust layer to prevent pile sliding; middle flexible branches increase the friction area of the soil, while long lower flexible branches with large angles increase pullout resistance. The length and angle of the flexible branches are layered to match humidity changes, significantly improving the anchoring performance in high-humidity soft soil roadbeds and optimizing the reinforcement effect on the soft soil roadbed. Secondly, the present invention embeds an upper diamond-shaped elastic mesh into the cracks of the hard crust layer on the surface of the soft soil roadbed, resisting cracking of the hard crust and reducing the risk of local crushing of the hard crust. The middle hexagonal honeycomb mesh elastic mesh wraps around the softened soil, capturing soil particles, increasing friction resistance, and restraining the lateral movement of the softened soil. The lower radial elastic mesh reduces the drag force of the flowing soil and anchors the flowing soil, achieving three-dimensional anchoring. This makes the device suitable for use in high-humidity scenarios such as swamps and river bank protection, and has engineering universality. Third, the number of elastic net layers increases with depth, matching the mechanical gradient of the soil from "hard-soft-flow". The double-layer elastic net in the middle layer forms a "sandwich structure" to capture soil particles, further increasing friction resistance and enhancing the soil's anti-cracking, friction-increasing and anti-flow capabilities. Fourthly, the present invention forms silica gel after the middle layer of silica powder absorbs soil moisture, and the silica gel fills the soil pores, improves the cohesion of the middle layer of soil, and the gel layer blocks the infiltration of moisture, reducing the risk of softening of the surface hard shell layer; after the lower layer of silica particles absorb water, the particles expand to twice their original volume, squeeze the soil and fill the gaps between the meshes to form dense clumps, and the expansion of the particles generates radial pressure, which improves the anchoring force of the lower layer. The porous structure absorbs free water, accelerates soil consolidation, and reduces the settlement rate. The water-absorbing material reduces the free water content of the soil, inhibits the development of plastic state, and improves long-term stability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The expanded particles generate radial pressure, which improves the anchoring force of the lower layer. The porous structure absorbs free water, accelerates soil consolidation, and reduces the settlement rate. The water-absorbing material reduces the free water content of the soil, inhibits the development of plastic flow, and improves long-term stability.
