AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing inclinometer tubes have problems with leakage, torsion and stiffness mismatch in deep foundation pits, slopes and tunnel projects, resulting in insufficient monitoring accuracy and reliability.

Method used

A jointless one-piece pipe body is adopted, with guide grooves evenly distributed around the inner wall and tapered holes evenly distributed around the outer wall. Metal rods of different lengths are inserted and configured according to the elastic modulus of the soil to form an asymmetric stiffness adjustment structure. A stiffness adjustment channel is formed by filling the tapered holes with solidifying material.

Benefits of technology

It achieves zero leakage, anti-torsion, matching of pipe-soil deformation modulus, and stable monitoring error within 3%, which improves the long-term reliability and accuracy of monitoring.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of displacement monitoring of constructional engineering, and provides an asymmetric rigidity adjusting type displacement inclinometry device and system and an installation method. The inner wall of the joint-free pipe body is provided with axial guide grooves which are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction, and the outer wall of the joint-free pipe body is provided with a conical hole; the metal rods with different lengths penetrate through the axial full length of the pipe body, and the lengths are configured according to elastic modulus gradients of soil bodies with different depths; the extending direction of the guide groove is parallel to the axis of the metal bar. During installation, axial continuous penetration of the conical hole is realized through the joint-free pipe body, so that the metal bars are continuously arranged in a layered manner along the depth of a soil layer. According to the device, the problems of leakage, torsion and soil body-pipe body deformation mismatch of a traditional inclinometer pipe are solved through the synergistic effect of an integrated structure and elastic modulus matching type rigidity adjustment.
