Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to an assembled abutment, and in particular to a method for constructing an ultra-long abutment. Background Art
[0002] Prefabricated abutments are prefabricated in factories and installed on-site, significantly reducing construction time compared to cast-in-place abutments. Prefabricated abutments are generally shorter and can be installed directly on piers without requiring further splicing. However, for a few extra-long abutments, transportation and lifting limitations require segmentation and on-site splicing. At present, for extra-long abutments (generally installed on three piers), the abutment section is first supported and placed on the piers, so that the two abutment sections are separated on the piers to form a cast-in-place trough. After pouring, the adjacent abutment sections are spliced. There are two major difficulties in this construction method: 1) The length of the abutment section must be longer than the distance between adjacent piers. When the distance between adjacent piers is large, the abutment section will be too long, which brings inconvenience to transportation and lifting; 2) The width of the abutment section is larger than the piers. Before pouring the cast-in-place trough, bottom formwork and side formwork need to be set up. In order to install the bottom formwork and side formwork, a tire frame is also required. The tire frame is only used to support the bottom formwork and side formwork, which is relatively wasteful; 3) When the abutment section is hoisted, at the splicing end of the abutment section, the abutment section is partially supported on the pier and partially supported on the bottom formwork. If the installation accuracy of the tire frame is not high and the elevation of the bottom formwork is not properly controlled, there will be a drop between the pier and the bottom formwork, resulting in leakage during pouring. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for constructing an extra-long abutment, which avoids the inconvenience of transportation and lifting caused by the extra-long prefabricated abutment section, does not waste the frame, does not have a drop, and does not leak slurry during pouring.
[0004] The technical solution adopted in the present invention is: A method for constructing an extra-long abutment, wherein the extra-long abutment supported on three piers is divided into precast abutment sections on both sides and a cast-in-place section in the middle, the precast abutment sections being provided with through tensioning holes and butt-jointed steel bars extending outwards. During construction, a cradle is first arranged around the middle pier, and a bottom formwork is laid on the cradle, with the middle through-hole of the bottom formwork closely surrounding the middle pier. Two precast abutment sections are then hoisted, with one end of the precast abutment section supported on the end pier and the other end entirely supported on the bottom formwork, forming a cast-in-place trough between the two precast abutment sections, with both sides of the cast-in-place trough extending beyond the middle pier. Rebar connectors are then used to connect the corresponding butt-jointed steel bars on both sides, prestressed steel strands are simultaneously passed through the tensioning holes on both sides, and side formwork at both ends of the cast-in-place trough is installed on the bottom formwork. The cast-in-place trough is then cast, and after the concrete reaches a certain strength, the prestressed steel strands are tensioned and locked. The tensioning holes are then filled, and finally the side formwork, bottom formwork, and cradle are removed.
[0005] Preferably, before hoisting the prefabricated abutment section, a position control line is marked on the bottom template; when hoisting the prefabricated abutment section, ensure that its two sides and ends are aligned with the position control line.
[0006] Preferably, when the positions of the corresponding butt-jointed steel bars are staggered within a certain range, the steel bar connector adopts an integral steel bar sleeve; when the positions of the corresponding butt-jointed steel bars are staggered beyond a certain value, the steel bar connector adopts two separate steel bar sleeves, which are connected by a universal joint structure.
[0007] Preferably, protruding steel bars are provided at the top of the pier, and an opening is reserved on the prefabricated abutment section for accommodating the protruding steel bars from the top of the end pier; when the prefabricated abutment section is hoisted, the opening is sleeved on the protruding steel bars from the top of the end pier, and the opening is within the range of the end pier; after the prefabricated abutment section is hoisted, the opening is filled.
[0008] Preferably, the tensioning holes are distributed on both sides of the cross section of the prefabricated abutment section, and the tensioning holes avoid the openings.
[0009] Preferably, one prefabricated abutment section is provided with an anchor groove at one end facing outward, and the anchor groove is at the end of the tensioning hole, and the other prefabricated abutment section is provided with a tensioning groove at one end facing outward, and the tensioning groove is at the end of the tensioning hole; when the prestressed steel strand is tensioned and locked, one end of the prestressed steel strand is anchored in the anchor groove and the other end is tensioned and locked in the tensioning groove; when filling the tensioning hole, the anchor groove and the tensioning groove are filled together.
[0010] Preferably, after casting the cast-in-place trough, epoxy resin is used to fill the surface gaps in the cast-in-place trough area and adjacent areas.
[0011] Preferably, meshes for crack resistance and protection are provided at both ends of the cast-in-place trough.
[0012] Preferably, the concrete used to cast the cast-in-place channel is one grade higher than the concrete used for the precast abutment sections.
[0013] Preferably, before casting the cast-in-place trough, both sides of the cast-in-place trough are roughened.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: In this method, both ends of the prefabricated abutment section are supported on the end piers and the bottom formwork laid on the tire frame respectively. The length of the prefabricated abutment section does not need to be longer than the spacing between adjacent piers, avoiding the inconvenience of transportation and lifting caused by the excessive length of the prefabricated abutment section; in this method, the tire frame is used to provide an installation platform for the bottom formwork and the side formwork, and can also be used to support the prefabricated abutment section, so there will be no waste of the tire frame; in this method, the butt ends of the two prefabricated abutment sections are all supported on the bottom formwork, there will be no drop, and there will be no leakage during pouring; in this method, the two prefabricated abutment sections are not only connected by butt steel bars and cast-in-place sections, but also pre-tensioned by prestressed steel strands, so that the formed abutment has better integrity.

[0028] S5. Fill the tensioning hole 13.
[0029] S6. Remove the side formwork, bottom formwork 10 and tire frame 11.
[0030] In order to control the position of the prefabricated abutment section 4 during hoisting, in this embodiment, preferably: before hoisting the prefabricated abutment section 4, a position control line is marked on the bottom template 10; when hoisting the prefabricated abutment section 4, ensure that its two sides and ends are aligned with the position control line.
