Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of construction site classification discrimination methods, and in particular to a large-scale earthquake-resistant site classification automatic discrimination method and system based on a three-dimensional geological information model. Background Art
[0002] In the field of construction engineering, earthquake-resistant protection is a vital step in safeguarding the safety of life and property, and the accurate identification of earthquake-resistant site categories is the logical starting point of the entire earthquake-resistant design system. According to the current "Code for Seismic Design of Buildings" (GB50011-2010, 2016 edition), site classification requires comprehensive consideration of two key parameters: equivalent shear wave velocity and cover thickness. This directly determines the value of seismic motion parameters and the selection of structural earthquake-resistant measures. From an engineering practice perspective, the accuracy of site classification not only affects the seismic safety of building structures, but also affects the full life cycle cost of construction projects. Incorrect classification may lead to overly conservative earthquake-resistant designs or insufficient safety reserves. The former results in a waste of resources, while the latter poses a safety hazard.
[0003] The current manual identification method widely used in the engineering community involves obtaining stratigraphic data at discrete points through drilling, calculating equivalent shear wave velocity based on single-hole shear wave velocity test results, and ultimately classifying sites based on overburden thickness. This "point data" analysis model faces three technical barriers:
[0004] Inadequate spatial representation: Analytical units based on borehole locations make it difficult to construct a continuous site engineering geological model, resulting in significant "point-like discreteness" in the identification results. In complex geological conditions (such as karst areas and near fault zones), sudden changes in stratum properties can occur tens of meters between adjacent boreholes, and traditional methods are unable to capture this spatial heterogeneity.
[0005] Lack of 3D information: Current standards rely on 2D cross-sectional analysis, which essentially simplifies 3D geological space into a collection of vertical 1D data. This ignores the impact of 3D spatial factors such as stratum dip, lens distribution, and interlayer structures on shear wave propagation paths. Measured data from a highway project showed that when stratum dip exceeds 15°, the equivalent shear wave velocity calculated using traditional methods can deviate by 12%-15% from the actual 3D propagation model.
[0006] Delayed response to abnormal geology: For deeply buried local geological anomalies (such as ancient river channel fillings and weak interlayers), the probability of single-hole exposure is less than 30%, and they are often discovered only during the construction phase, forcing the seismic design plan to be reworked.
[0007] The rapid development of 3D geological modeling, BIM, and big data technologies is increasingly being used in engineering, providing new approaches and technical solutions to these problems. A large-scale automatic seismic site classification method based on 3D geological information modeling has emerged, promising to significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of engineering construction. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a large-scale seismic site classification automatic discrimination method and system based on three-dimensional geological information model technology to solve the problems of traditional discrimination methods such as using points instead of surfaces, weak spatial correlation, inability to reflect three-dimensional spatial distribution characteristics, and easy neglect of the impact of local geological anomalies. The present invention realizes the automation and intelligence of the site classification process, improves the discrimination accuracy and efficiency, and makes the discrimination results intuitive and visual.
[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for distinguishing the type of construction site, which is characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0018] Furthermore, the multi-source data fusion modeling adopts Kriging interpolation method or neural network algorithm to construct a continuous three-dimensional terrain surface model, geological structure model, cover layer thickness distribution model H(x,y,z) and shear wave velocity model Vs(x,y,z).
[0019] Furthermore, the first threshold is 500 m / s.
[0020] Furthermore, in step S4, the thickness H of the covering layer should generally be determined according to the distance from the ground to the top surface of the soil layer with a shear wave velocity greater than 500 m / s and the shear wave velocity of each underlying rock and soil layer greater than 500 m / s; when there is a soil layer 5 m below the ground with a shear wave velocity greater than 2.5 times the shear wave velocity of each upper soil layer, and the shear wave velocity of this layer and each underlying rock and soil layer is greater than 400 m / s, it can be determined according to the distance from the ground to the top surface of the soil layer; isolated boulders and lenses with a shear wave velocity greater than 500 m / s should be regarded as the surrounding soil layers; volcanic rock hard interlayers in the soil layer should be regarded as rigid bodies, and their thickness should be deducted from the covering soil layer.
[0021] Furthermore, the categories of I0, I1, II, III and IV sites are as follows:
[0022]
[0023] Furthermore, the construction site classification method according to claim 1 is characterized in that, when calculating the equivalent shear wave velocity v se When , the standard formula is
[0024] Furthermore, it is characterized in that the cover layer thickness distribution model H(x, y, z) can be at least one of a linear inclined layer model, a Gaussian distribution model, an exponential decay model, a composite model, or a terrain-based model;
[0025] Linear inclined layer model: This model can be used when the overburden is uniformly inclined: H(x,y,z) = H0 + kx·x + ky·y, where H0 represents the base thickness, kx and ky are the slopes in the x and y directions, respectively.

[0053] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other embodiments can be obtained based on these drawings without inventive work.
[0054] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the implementation of the construction site classification method of this embodiment. The specific process is:
[0055] 1. Data collection (step S1)
[0056] Collect topographic data of the project site, including topographic contour maps and topographic survey data, to accurately reflect the topographic and geomorphological characteristics of the site. Collect geological drilling data, including the location, depth, and soil stratification of the boreholes, and obtain the geological structure information of the site through data from multiple boreholes. Collect geophysical data and use surface wave exploration technology to obtain shear wave velocity inversion results to provide data support for building a shear wave velocity model. Collect borehole shear wave test data and obtain the shear wave velocity values of each soil layer by performing shear wave velocity tests on the boreholes. Collect historical seismic motion records, including the magnitude, epicenter location, and seismic motion parameters of earthquakes that have occurred in the area, for subsequent machine learning model training and correction of discrimination bias.
[0057] 2. Multi-source data fusion modeling (step S2)
[0058] Using the collected topographic data, geological borehole data, geophysical data, and borehole shear wave test data, we used Kriging interpolation to construct a continuous three-dimensional terrain surface model, a geological structure model, an overburden thickness distribution model H(x,y,z), and a shear wave velocity model Vs(x,y,z). For example, for the shear wave velocity model, we interpolated the shear wave velocity data from each borehole and geophysical point using Kriging to obtain a continuous shear wave velocity distribution for the entire site.
[0059] 3. Assign attribute values (step S3)
[0060] According to the Geological Information Model (GIM) standard, each 3D geological unit is assigned a unique identification attribute value, such as GIM_001 or GIM_002, and attributes such as shear wave velocity and cover thickness are associated with the corresponding geological unit. This approach enables structured management of geological data, facilitating subsequent query and analysis.
[0061] 4. Automatic identification of cover thickness (step S4)
[0062] Based on the constructed 3D shear wave velocity model, a vertical search is performed for each geological unit to find the first stratigraphic interface with a shear wave velocity of 500 m / s or greater. For example, at an assessment point P(x,y), the search begins from the surface and downward. When a stratigraphic interface with a shear wave velocity of 500 m / s is encountered, the vertical distance H(P) from the surface to that interface is calculated. The overburden thickness H at that point is then determined based on the provisions of the Code for Seismic Design of Buildings (GB50011) and the built-in algorithm. The thickness H of the covering layer should generally be determined according to the distance from the ground to the top surface of the soil layer with a shear wave velocity greater than 500m / s and the shear wave velocity of the underlying rock and soil layers greater than 500m / s; when there is a soil layer 5m below the ground with a shear wave velocity greater than 2.5 times the shear wave velocity of the soil layers above it, and the shear wave velocity of this layer and the underlying rock and soil layers are all greater than 400m / s, it can be determined according to the distance from the ground to the top surface of this soil layer; isolated rocks and lenses with a shear wave velocity greater than 500m / s should be regarded as the surrounding soil layers; hard interlayers of volcanic rocks in the soil layer should be regarded as rigid bodies, and their thickness should be deducted from the covering soil layer.
[0063] 5. Automatic calculation of equivalent shear wave velocity (step S5)
[0064] For any evaluation grid node P(x,y), determine the calculation depth d0. Extract the thickness d of each soil layer within the calculation depth d0 along the vertical z direction. i and shear wave velocity According to the standard formula Calculate the equivalent shear wave velocity v se
[0065] 6. Site Category Identification (Step S6)
[0066] According to the GB50011 discrimination table rules, establish (v se , H) Two-dimensional discriminant matrix.
[0067]
[0068] Assume that the equivalent shear wave velocity v at the evaluation point is se =197.37m / s, the thickness of the covering layer H = 15m. By querying the discriminant matrix, it is determined that the site category of this point is Class II site.
[0069] 7. Correction of discrimination deviation (step S7)
[0070] A random forest algorithm was introduced, and the model was trained using collected historical earthquake damage data. For example, historical earthquake damage cases under similar geological conditions in the region and surrounding areas were selected, and the site classification results were compared with the actual earthquake damage to construct a training dataset. By training the random forest model, the patterns of site classification deviation under complex geological conditions were learned, thereby correcting the discrimination results. For complex geological areas in this embodiment, such as those with interlayers, the accuracy of the discrimination results was improved through model correction.
[0071] 8. Result output (step S8)
[0072] The visualization module generates a 3D site classification distribution model and a 2D zoning map for the project site. The 3D model allows for a visual representation of the spatial distribution of different site classifications, such as the range and location of Class I and Class II sites. The 2D zoning map provides a flat representation of the site classifications, facilitating planning and design.
[0073] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents.
