Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of beaded-type high-speed railway roadbed construction in medium-strong karst areas, and in particular to a permanent steel casing with a shear key combined with a bottom bag grouting enlarged head reinforced pile and a construction method thereof. Background Art

[0002] High-speed railway deformation control is strict (≤15mm). In areas with densely developed beaded karst caves in deep overburden (≥30m), pile foundations find it difficult to find a suitable bearing layer. Pile lengths may reach 80-90m or even exceed 100m and still fail to reach the bedrock layer. There may also be undiscovered karst caves underneath. High-speed railway subgrade diseases are frequent in karst areas (for example, the Guizhou section of the Shanghai-Kunming High-Speed ​​Railway has over 2,000 kilometers of karst-prone sections). The beaded karst cave geology poses many difficulties for bored pile construction, which is prone to problems such as hole collapse, slurry leakage, and ground subsidence. Conventional grouting in thick overburden is also difficult to handle deep karst caves. The traditional method of grouting, filling, solidification, and then excavation with cement and water glass slurry is difficult to adapt to such geological conditions. It has defects such as large investment in equipment, materials, and labor, extremely high requirements for exploration, time-consuming layer-by-layer grouting, casing material problems affecting the segmentation effect, and difficulty in controlling grouting pressure. In addition, ultra-long piles are expensive and construction faces huge challenges such as borehole collapse.

[0011] A construction method for reinforced piles with a permanent steel casing with shear keys and bottom bag grouting and enlarged heads includes the following steps:

[0012] S1, processing the inner tube body and grouting bag, obtaining the beaded karst distribution according to geological survey data, processing trapezoidal shear keys in different areas on the outer surface of the inner tube body, anti-corrosion treatment of the entire length of the inner tube body, and pre-installing the bag grouting system at the bottom of the inner tube body;

Clamp the first section of casing with a vibratory hammer and press it vertically in. After the outer casing is in place, connect the drill pipe to the drilling rig, connect the rotary drill to the drill pipe, and drill the soil in the casing until it reaches the roof of the second cavern.

[0015] S4: The outer casing is laid in sections and welded until the top of the cave is reached. After that, the bottom drill bit is replaced. A vibratory hammer is used to assist in sinking the casing and the verticality is monitored in real time. The deviation is ≤1%.

[0016] S5, repeating steps S3 and S4 until the outer casing sinks to the designed elevation;

[0017] S6, clearing obstacles and taking soil inside the barrel. The rotary drill takes soil inside the outer casing to the designed elevation. If there are isolated rocks, high-pressure water jetting is used inside the barrel to break them.

[0018] S7, hoist the inner cylinder to the bottom of the hole;

[0019] S8, drilling the inner barrel to the bearing layer with a rotary drill;

[0020] S9, pouring concrete for the inner tube;

[0021] S10, after the concrete has initially set and the strength is ≥5MPa, the outer casing is pulled out in sections, and then the fluidized solidified soil is injected into the gaps in the hole wall simultaneously, and the bag body constrains the grouting to form an enlarged head;

[0022] S11, the outer casing is pulled out layer by layer, and fluidized solidified soil is injected section by section through the gaps between the trapezoidal shear keys to permanently retain the permanent steel casing with shear keys.

[0023] According to the construction method of a permanent steel casing with shear keys combined with bottom bag grouting and enlarged head reinforced pile provided by the present invention, step S1 includes the following steps:

[0024] S11. Determine the beaded karst distribution area based on geological survey data, and process rectangular shear keys and trapezoidal shear keys in the corresponding areas of the inner tube body to ensure that the arrangement and quantity of the rectangular shear keys and trapezoidal shear keys are adapted to the karst distribution characteristics;

[0025] S12, the inner barrel is treated with full-length anti-corrosion treatment, using zinc plating or epoxy coating;

[0026] S13, pre-install the bag grouting system at the bottom of the inner barrel.

[0027] According to the construction method of the reinforced pile with permanent steel casing with shear key combined with bottom bag grouting and enlarged head provided by the present invention, step S2 includes the following steps:

[0028] S21, select Q345 steel plate as the outer casing material, and determine its wall thickness to be 12-20mm;

[0029] S22, determine the outer casing diameter according to the designed pile diameter, making it 40 cm larger than the designed pile diameter;

[0030] S23, annular cutting teeth are welded on the bottom of the outer casing, and the blade angle is controlled to 30°-45° to enhance the soil cutting ability.

[0031] According to the construction method of the reinforced pile with permanent steel casing with shear key combined with bottom bag grouting and enlarged head provided by the present invention, step S3 includes the following steps:

[0032] S31, determine the pile position by measuring and setting out, ensuring that the pile position deviation is ≤3cm;

[0033] S32: Use a vibratory hammer to clamp the first section of outer casing and press it vertically into the formation. For soft formations, keep the water head inside the casing 2m above the groundwater level.

[0034] S33, after the outer casing is in place, use a rotary drill to extract soil from the casing until the top of the second cave is reached and drilling is stopped.

[0035] According to the construction method of the reinforced pile with permanent steel casing with shear key combined with bottom bag grouting and enlarged head provided by the present invention, step S10 includes the following steps:

[0036] S101: After the concrete in the inner tube has initially set and its strength is ≥5MPa, the outer casing is pulled out in sections. After each section is pulled out, fluidized solidified soil is immediately injected into the gaps in the hole wall to fill the gap between the outer casing and the inner tube and form preliminary support.

[0037] S102, synchronously constraining grouting is performed on the bag body to form an enlarged head. The grouting process is carried out in the following stages:

[0038] The first stage uses 1.5MPa low-pressure grouting to slowly expand the folded bladder body to a preliminary diameter of 1.8D, avoiding uneven deformation of the bladder body due to instantaneous excessive force;

[0039] The second stage uses 4.0MPa medium-pressure grouting to squeeze the surrounding soil through the radial force generated by the further expansion of the bag body, thereby achieving compaction and reinforcement of the pile bottom and surrounding soil;

[0040] The third stage uses 6.0MPa high-pressure grouting to allow the slurry to penetrate into the cracks and pores of the surrounding soil under high pressure, thereby strengthening the bonding strength between the bag body and the surrounding strata.

[0041] In the fourth stage, a constant pressure of 2.5 MPa is applied for 30 minutes to ensure that the slurry is fully solidified and hardened under the pressure, fix the shape of the enlarged head, and form the bearing layer at the end of the enlarged head pile;

[0042] S103, the slurry used for grouting the bag body is composed of 73% ultrafine silicate cement, 15% silica fume, 2% steel fiber, and 10% expansion agent, with a water-binder ratio of 0.38; the diameter of the enlarged head and the expanded body formed is ≥2.5D, and the height is ≥1.2D.

[0043] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:

[0044] The shear keys arranged circumferentially and longitudinally inside and outside the casing can be customized in distribution density according to geological survey results, effectively enhancing the shear friction resistance between the casing and the surrounding soil / concrete. Especially in beaded karst formations, the friction around the pile is significantly improved through the embedding effect of the shear keys and the karst top and bottom plates.

[0045] The serrated blade design at the bottom of the casing enhances its ability to penetrate hard layers, forming a mechanical bite with the interlocking groove of the bladder bag to avoid displacement of the bladder bag during grouting and ensure the molding accuracy of the enlarged head.

[0046] The fiber-reinforced rubber bag expands through high-pressure grouting to form an enlarged head with controllable diameter at the bottom of the pile, thereby increasing the bearing area of ​​the pile end, similar to the effect of an expanded bottom pile. It effectively addresses the problems of no suitable bearing layer in beaded karst areas, insufficient bearing capacity at the pile end, and excessive settlement at the pile end.

[0047] The guide ribs optimize the slurry diffusion path, avoid local bulging of the bag, ensure the grouting body is uniform and dense, and improve the collaborative working performance of the enlarged head and the casing.

[0048] The outer casing is sunk in sections to provide temporary support for the hole wall during the drilling process, avoiding the risk of cave roof collapse in the karst area. The rotary drill is used to extract soil layer by layer to achieve simultaneous advancement of "casing-drilling" and reduce the rate of hole collapse accidents.

[0049] During vibratory hammer-assisted sinking, verticality is monitored in real time (deviation ≤ 1%) to ensure the accuracy of the casing axis and reduce the cost of subsequent correction.

[0050] To address the distribution of beaded karst, shear keys are machined into different areas of the inner barrel to match the strength of different karst layers and avoid pile slippage. High-pressure water jetting is used to break up isolated boulders, replacing blasting to reduce the impact of construction vibration on the stability of the beaded karst.

[0123] High-pressure grouting pipe 9: It is alternately connected by grouting inner casing 10, type I grouting outer casing 11, and type II grouting outer casing 13 (total length 55m), and the matching anchor chassis 14 is sealed with the bag interlocking groove 6 through the flange;

[0124] Guide ribs 8: 8 radial reinforcement ribs to control the slurry diffusion into a pear-shaped profile.

[0125] Outer temporary steel casing 17;

[0126] The material is Q345 steel plate, with a wall thickness of 16mm and a diameter of 1.9m (40cm larger than the designed pile diameter). The bottom of the cylinder is welded with an annular cutting tooth (edge ​​foot angle 35°).

[0127] 3. Construction steps (combined with Figures 1-15 )

[0128] The inner tube body and the bladder are processed in 5 systems;

[0129] According to the distribution of the three caves, the outer shear keys are increased in the sections of 32-35m (first cave 22), 45-49m (second cave 24), and 51-54m (third cave 26);

[0130] The bladder bag 5 system is pre-installed at the bottom of the inner tube: the clamp 4 fixes the fiber reinforced rubber bladder bag 5, the bladder bag interlocking groove 6 is locked with the serrated blade foot 7, the dual-channel grouting pipe 9 (including type I grouting outer sleeve 11 and type II grouting outer sleeve 13) is arranged along the tube body, and the grouting pipe outlet 15 and the slurry outlet 16 are aligned with the annular cavity of the bladder bag 5.

[0131] Outer casing processing;

[0132] The outer casing is processed in sections (8m per section), the interface is made of CO2 shielded welding + submerged arc welding filling, and the welds are 100% ultrasonically tested.

[0133] Positioning and initial sinking of outer casing;

[0134] The pile position was measured and staked out, with the deviation controlled within 2 cm. A vibratory hammer was used at a high frequency and low amplitude of 1200 times per minute to vertically press the first section of the outer casing into the soft formation 19, keeping the water head in the casing 2 m above the groundwater level.

[0135] After the outer casing is in place, the rotary drill (diameter drill bit 20) takes soil in the tube to the second cave roof 23 (buried depth 35m) and stops drilling.

[0136] The outer casing passes through the first and second caves in sections;

[0137] Weld the second section of outer casing, sink it to the first cave roof 21 (30m) with the help of a vibratory hammer, replace the bottom drill bit 27 to pass through the cave, and monitor the verticality in real time (deviation ≤ 0.8%);

[0138] Continue welding the third section of outer casing, sink it to the second cave roof 23 (35m), expand the bottom drill bit 27 to crush the loose sand and gravel in the cave, and take soil to the second cave floor (45m).

[0139] The outer casing passes through the third cave 26 and reaches the design elevation

[0140] Repeat the segmented welding and sinking. When crossing the third cave 26 (51-54m), the bottom drill bit 27 enlarges the hole diameter to 1.9m to ensure that the casing sinks close to the cave wall.

[0141] It eventually sank to the designed elevation (55m), with the bottom entering the stable rock layer 1.0m deep.

[0142] Obstacle removal and soil removal inside the barrel

[0143] The rotary drill (diameter drill bit 20) takes soil to the bottom of the hole in the outer casing. When encountering isolated rocks in the cave, 28MPa high-pressure water jet is used to break them, and the sediment thickness is controlled within 4cm.

[0144] Inner tube hoisting and steel cage 28 sinking

[0145] The full-rotation equipment is pressed into the inner cylinder in sections, with a verticality deviation of ≤0.8% and the bottom embedded in the stabilization layer of 1.0m;

[0146] The diameter of the steel cage 28 is 1.6m (90mm smaller than the inner diameter of the inner cylinder), a conical guide cap is provided at the bottom of the cage, and an adjustable cross positioning frame is installed on the top, and the center deviation is controlled within 40mm.

[0147] Underwater concrete pouring 30

[0148] The initial filling volume of the conduit ensures a buried depth of 2.5m, an overfilling height of 1.2m (covering the top of the inner tube), and a concrete strength grade of C35.

[0149] Outer casing is pulled out and bag 5 is grouting to enlarge the head

[0150] After the concrete has initially set (strength reaches 6 MPa), the outer casing is pulled out in sections, and fluidized solidified soil is injected into the voids of the hole wall simultaneously.

[0151] Grouting of pile bottom bag 5:

[0152] 1) Low-pressure support bladder (1.5 MPa): The diameter of the bladder is 2.7 m (1.8D), covering the third cave 26;

[0153] 2) Medium pressure soil compaction (4.0MPa): compacting the soil around the cave;

[0154] 3) High-pressure penetration (6.0 MPa): Slurry (73% ultrafine Portland cement + 15% silica fume + 2% steel fiber + 10% expansion agent, water-binder ratio 0.38) penetrates into the cave fissures through the slurry outlet 16;

[0155] 4) Steady pressure molding (2.5 MPa × 30 min): Finally, a pear-shaped enlarged head with a diameter of 4.0 m (2.7D) and a height of 1.8 m (1.2D) is formed (corresponding to the size of the third cave 26).

[0156] Final shape

[0157] After all outer casings are pulled out, fluidized solidified soil 31 is injected through the gaps of the trapezoidal shear keys 3 in the inner tube to form a composite bearing structure of "steel tube-shear key-fluidized solidified soil 31-soil body";

[0158] The permanent steel casing is retained as the anti-seepage and anti-corrosion layer of the inner tube reinforced concrete pile and bears the load in coordination with the fluidized solidified soil 31.
