Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ecological restoration, in particular to a composite material for ecological restoration of high and steep rock slope. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the ecological restoration technologies for high and steep rock slope mainly include the following: soil spraying and seeding technology, planting bag technology, ecological bag technology, fish scale pit excavation technology, planting groove technology, three-dimensional vegetation net spraying and seeding technology, floating platform method, vegetation concrete ecological protection technology, slope drilling greening, blasting yun nest ecological reconstruction technology, and liana vertical greening technology. However, when applied to high and steep rock slope, these technologies generally have high cost in practical application and face the following key challenges.

[0003] 1) Poor stability of the matrix layer: the steep or even vertical slope surface makes it difficult for the traditional spraying matrix or filling soil to adhere, and it is easy to fall off and slip under the action of gravity and rainwater, so the restoration effect is difficult to last. 2) Difficulty in water retention: the rock slope itself has no water retention capacity, the spraying layer or planting bag matrix is thin and has a large exposed area, and water evaporation is extremely rapid in strong sunlight, high temperature and strong wind environment. The existing technology (such as adding water retaining agent) has limited effect and poor durability, which can easily lead to the death of plants due to drought. 3) Insufficient and loss of nutrients: artificially configured matrix nutrients are easily lost under rainwater leaching, and the slope lacks the ability to supplement nutrients through natural soil nutrient cycling, making it difficult to continuously ensure the nutrients required for long-term plant growth. 4) Insufficient anchoring reliability: the anchoring measures (such as simple soil nails and ordinary anchor rods) used in existing technologies to fix planting bags or matrixes are obviously insufficient in terms of tensile and shear resistance on high and steep slopes or even negative angle slopes, and are difficult to resist external forces such as strong winds, freeze-thaw, heavy rain and the like, and there is a risk of overall instability. 5) Limited plant growth space and root environment: the limited soil volume provided by thin layer matrix or small specification planting bag limits the growth and development of plant roots, affecting their long-term stress resistance and stability to the slope.

[0004] In summary, the existing ecological restoration technologies for high and steep rock slope are subject to key bottlenecks such as matrix stability, efficient water retention, continuous nutrient supply, reliable anchoring, and suitable plant growth space, and the restoration effect is often poor, with low vegetation survival rate, low coverage, and poor long-term stability, making it difficult to achieve the expected ecological restoration goal. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of composite material and structure that can comprehensively solve the above problems and achieve effective, stable and long-term ecological restoration of high and steep rock slope.

[0026] A support structure having a water-retaining and soil-consolidating function, disposed on the horizontal bearing platform of the anchoring structure 10 and located within the enclosure, and having a plurality of planting areas 23 disposed on a side of the support structure away from the horizontal bearing platform; The planting matrix is ​​arranged in the plurality of the planting areas 23 and is supported by a supporting structure with water-retaining and soil-fixing functions, and is used for planting vegetation to provide the soil environment necessary for plant growth.

[0027] In one embodiment, the anchoring structure 10 comprises L-shaped main anchor rod 11 (diameter 16 mm, short arm 200 mm / long arm 760 mm) and U-shaped steel auxiliary support 12 (diameter 12 mm, opening width 1200 mm, short arm 200 mm) made of galvanized steel material.

[0028] The number of L-shaped main anchor rods 11 is two and they are arranged in parallel, the number of U-shaped steel auxiliary supports 12 is two and they are arranged in parallel, the long arms of the two L-shaped main anchor rods 11 are vertically connected to the bottom wall of the U-shaped steel auxiliary support 12, and finally welding is performed at four overlapping points to form a rigid box-like prefabricated component. The two L-shaped main anchor rods 11 are laid with a parallel spacing of 800 mm, the two U-shaped steel auxiliary supports 12 are laid with a parallel spacing of 80 mm, and the height of the short arm is equal to that of the two side arms. During construction, the anchoring structure 10 is implanted in the slope drill hole (depth ≥ 560 mm, diameter Φ30 mm) and grouted to fill, so that the long arm of the L-shaped anchor rod near the short arm has a reserved exposed section of ≥200 mm to form a horizontal bearing platform; the glass fiber mesh support plate 20 is laid on the platform, and the ecological rock wool strip 21 composite material wrapped by the water-permeable ecological bag 24 is closely laid on it, and finally the three-dimensional space is locked by anchoring the side of the rock wool strip with the side arm of the U-shaped steel auxiliary support 12, realizing the overall anti-sliding and anti-overturning stability of the composite material.

[0029] In one embodiment, the support structure includes an ecological rock wool strip 21 (1200mm×200mm×200mm, the size of the rock wool material can be adjusted according to the slope, such as the length can be reduced for steeper slopes), a permeable ecological bag 24 and a fiberglass mesh support plate 20 (1200mm×200mm×3mm). The fiberglass mesh support plate 20 is arranged on the horizontal bearing platform, and the ecological rock wool strip 21 is arranged on the side of the fiberglass mesh support plate 20 away from the horizontal bearing platform, and forms a planting mechanism with the fiberglass mesh support plate 20. The permeable ecological bag 24 surrounds the four sides of the planting mechanism, specifically a side close to the fiberglass mesh support plate 20, a side in contact with the short arm, and two sides in contact with the side arm.

[0030] The ecological rock wool strips 21 include a bottom layer of rock wool strips, a middle layer of rock wool strips, and a top layer of rock wool strips that are sequentially bonded. The bottom layer of rock wool strips serves as the bearing layer of the planting matrix. The middle layer of rock wool strips is evenly spaced and provided with planting grooves 22 for filling the planting matrix. The top layer of rock wool strips is provided with a plurality of through holes corresponding to the planting grooves 22 as the planting areas 23. There are three planting grooves 22, which are evenly spaced on the middle layer of rock wool strips and pass through the middle layer of rock wool strips. Each planting groove 22 corresponds to three planting areas 23 connected to the top layer of rock wool strips. The three planting areas 23 are evenly spaced, and the number of planting areas 23 is nine. The planting areas 23 can be square or strip-shaped, and the number and spacing are determined according to the design density.

[0031] In one embodiment, the permeable eco-bag 24 is made of polypropylene and is woven from discarded cotton, linen, or non-woven fabric into a 1200mm x 200mm x 200mm bag, used to wrap and secure the rock wool material. When the permeable eco-bag 24 surrounds the planting structure, the side away from the horizontal support platform is left as an exposed area for plant canopy development, and the side closer to the slope is left as an exposed area for plant roots to colonize the slope rock surface.

[0032] Specifically, the ecological rock wool strip 21 is used as a core carrier for water retention and soil fixation, and has excellent water retention, air permeability and chemical stability. The ecological rock wool strip 21 is composed of three different specifications, from bottom to top: the bottom rock wool strip is used as a substrate soil bearing layer, with a specification of 1200mm*200mm*50mm, the middle rock wool strip has a specification of 1200mm*200mm*120mm, and three planting grooves 22 (specification: 330mm*100mm*120mm) are equidistantly arranged in the body cavity of the middle rock wool strip for filling the planting substrate, and the top rock wool strip has a specification of 1200mm*200mm*30mm, and nine planting areas 23 (specification: 80mm*100mm*30mm) are equidistantly arranged in the body cavity of the top rock wool strip, which correspond to the three planting grooves 22 of the middle rock wool strip respectively, and each planting groove 22 is connected with three planting areas 23; the water-permeable ecological bag 24 is used to wrap the lateral and bottom surfaces of the rock wool strip and is fixed by using adhesive tape, so as to prevent the rock wool material from being loose and falling off under the action of natural factors, and to weaken the water evaporation effect of the natural wind on the rock wool material; the top and slope surface are reserved with exposed areas for the development of the vegetation canopy and the colonization of the root system to the slope rock surface, which effectively improves the stability of the base structure and inhibits the water evaporation under the action of wind, and the bottom of the ecological rock wool strip 21 is provided with the glass fiber net support plate 20, which is made of glass fiber net material with high strength and decomposition resistance, is flatly arranged on the bearing platform of the anchoring structure 10, and is used for supporting the rock wool material and enhancing the overall bearing capacity.

[0033] The final support structure uses the ecological rock wool strip 21 as a core carrier for water retention and soil fixation, and equidistantly arranges three planting grooves 22 in the body cavity of the ecological rock wool strip 21 for filling the planting substrate soil; the ecological rock wool strip 21 is wrapped with the water-permeable ecological bag 24 for anchoring and coating, which effectively improves the stability of the base structure and inhibits the water evaporation under the action of wind, and the bottom is additionally provided with the glass fiber net support plate 20 to enhance the overall bearing performance.

[0034] In one embodiment, the planting substrate is the optimized compound substrate soil 25, which is mixed by the soil, organic fertilizer, wood fiber and slow-release compound fertilizer, and ensures the nutrients required for plant growth. Specifically, the ratio (by weight) of the compound substrate soil 25 is as follows: soil 70-75%, organic fertilizer 15-20%, wood fiber 5-10%, and compound fertilizer 0.1%. After the plants are sown in the planting area 23, the planting substrate soil is filled in the planting area 23, and the planting area 23 is used to reduce the exposed area of the soil, thereby effectively reducing the soil water evaporation.

[0035] When the present application is used for on-site construction, the composite material as described above is installed on the slope, the vegetation is sown or planted in the planting area 23, and the material is fixed by the anchoring system to ensure the stability of the structure. The specific method is as follows: 1) Slope pretreatment. The loose rocks on the slope surface are cleaned, and the net is reinforced if necessary.

[0036] 2) Installation of the prefabricated anchoring system a. Positioning and staking out: Mark 11 L-shaped main anchor points (corresponding to the ends of the support plate) at intervals of 800mm. Drilling and grouting: Drill Φ30mm holes (depth ≥560mm) vertically on the slope surface and inject C25 cement mortar (water-cement ratio 0.4).

[0037] b. Component implantation: Insert the welded box-shaped anchor component (L / U-shaped anchor rod four-point welded body) into the hole, adjust the L-shaped long arm to be exposed ≥ 200mm to form a horizontal bearing platform, and check the horizontality deviation ≤ 3mm / m.

[0038] c. Mechanical acceptance: pull-out force test (L-shaped ≥50kN, U-shaped ≥10kN).

[0039] 3) Composite support structure assembly a. Prefabrication of rock wool composite materials: Three rock wool strips of different specifications are combined. The structure from bottom to top is as follows: the bottom rock wool strip serves as the matrix soil bearing layer, with specifications of 1200mm×200mm×50mm. The middle layer uses rock wool strips with specifications of 1200mm×200mm×120mm. Three planting grooves 22 (specifications: 330mm×100mm×120mm) are evenly spaced in its body cavity for filling with composite matrix soil 25. The upper rock wool strip has specifications of 1200mm×200mm×30mm. Nine planting areas 23 (specifications: 80mm×100mm×30mm) are evenly spaced on the surface, corresponding to the three planting grooves 22 of the middle rock wool strip. Each planting groove 22 is connected to three independent planting areas 23. The three rock wool strips were stacked in sequence, and the planting trough 22 was filled with an optimized matrix (weight ratio: plain soil: organic fertilizer: wood fiber: slow-release compound fertilizer = 7:2:0.8:0.01, the moisture content was adjusted to 22% ± 3%, and the matrix was compacted in layers to a density of 1.35 g / cm³). The rock wool strips were wrapped in a pentahedron (bottom + four sides) using a permeable eco-bag 24 (permeability coefficient ≥ 1×10⁻²cm / s), with the top and slope contact surfaces left exposed. The strips were tied longitudinally with Φ1.2 mm stainless steel wire (spacing 300 mm) to ensure that the gap between the bag and the rock wool strips was ≤ 2 mm.

[0040] b. Base bearing laying: Fiberglass mesh support plate 20 (1200mm×200mm×3mm) is laid flat on the anchoring platform and fixed with 304 stainless steel tie, with horizontal deviation ≤3mm / m.

[0041] c. Installation of rock wool composite material unit: The prefabricated rock wool composite material is precisely embedded in a rigid frame formed by the exposed platform of the L-shaped main anchor rod 11 and the U-shaped auxiliary anchor rod. The vertical displacement is constrained by the short arm of the L-shaped anchor rod hooking the outer side of the rock wool strip. At the same time, the short arm of the U-shaped anchor rod presses the side of the rock wool board to suppress lateral slippage, realizing the dual anchoring mechanism to collaboratively lock the spatial stability of the rock wool unit.

[0042] 4) vegetation planting: a. Plant configuration: The vegetation planting adopts a configuration mode mainly of vines, supplemented by herbs and shrubs. The vines are preferably Ampelopsis grossedentata, Rhoicophorus chinensis, and Pueraria lobata (2 plants per planting area), which undertake the main function of climbing the slope surface; the shrubs are preferably Cajanus cajan and Myricaria pinnata (1 plant per planting area), which play the role of deep root anchoring; and the herbs are preferably Festuca arundinacea, Setaria viridis, and Saxifraga stolonifera (1-2 g per area), which achieve the effect of rapid coverage to suppress evaporation.

[0043] b. Maintenance and management: In the initial stage (0-3 months), a drip irrigation system is adopted, with water supply of 2 L / m² per day (in two times, 30 min each time); in the middle stage (4-6 months), natural precipitation is mainly used, with supplementary irrigation of 5 L / m² per month; and in the later stage (> 6 months), natural maintenance is completely relied on the water storage capacity of the rock wool board (rainfall storage capacity ≥ 15 L / m²).

[0044] The present application has the following excellent features: 1. Adequate and long-lasting nutrient supply: Based on the nutrient requirements of plants throughout the cycle, the optimized compound substrate soil 25 (containing soil, organic fertilizer, sawdust fiber, and slow-release compound fertilizer) is concentratedly filled in the ecological rock wool strip 21 prefabricated planting groove 22 to form a closed nutrient supply unit. Through the gradient release of slow-release compound fertilizer and the holding effect of sawdust fiber, the long-term stability and biological availability of nutrients in the root zone are cooperatively ensured, and the technical defects of easy leaching and non-continuous supply of substrate nutrients in high and steep slope environments are significantly overcome.

[0045] 2. Efficient water retention and evaporation inhibition: Based on the excellent water retention and air permeability of the rock wool strip, the planting substrate is completely filled in the cavity of the closed planting groove 22 to form a good physical barrier interface, which can greatly inhibit the evaporation of water in the planting substrate; the upper part of the ecological rock wool strip 21 is set as a 30 mm thick rock wool cover layer, and 9 square areas are excavated at equal intervals on the surface of the cover layer as micro independent planting areas 23 (80 mm x 100 mm x 30 mm), every 3 micro independent planting areas 23 are connected with 1 planting groove 22, which significantly reduces the top soil exposed area and further inhibits water evaporation; the multi-level evaporation control structure cooperates with the rock wool in the functions of water absorption, storage, and slow release in rainfall or irrigation, systematically improves the water use efficiency, reduces water evaporation, and effectively overcomes the core technical bottleneck of water retention in high and steep rock slope.

[0046] 3. Stable structure against sliding: The rigid base formed by the bottom glass fiber mesh support plate 20 effectively resists the deformation of the material unit caused by the gravity load. At the same time, the multi-dimensional anchoring system of the L-shaped main reinforcement anchor rod and the U-shaped steel auxiliary support 12 is adopted, in which the long arm of the L-shaped anchor rod penetrates deep into the rock mass to provide vertical tensile resistance, and the U-shaped support transversely restrains the composite material unit and transmits lateral shear resistance, and the two form a three-dimensional spatial mechanical constraint network, which makes the overall structure stable and anchored on the steep (including near vertical) rock slope, effectively resisting the coupling effect of gravity, rain erosion, wind force and freeze-thaw cycle and other external forces, significantly reducing the risk of matrix layer sliding, and completely solving the technical defects of unreliable anchoring and overall instability of traditional ecological restoration structure.

[0047] 4. Optimizing plant growth space: The standard root growth module is constructed by the prefabricated planting groove 22 (330mmx100mmx120mm) in the ecological rock wool strip 21, and the depth design fully guarantees the vertical stretching needs of deep-rooted vegetation; the independent planting area 23 (80mmx100mmx30mm) distributed at the top is connected with the planting groove 22, which provides sufficient canopy development space and relies on the 30mm thick rock wool to form a broken layout of exposed surface, and cooperates with the top rock wool strip cover structure to realize the dynamic balance of light and heat resources and water retention, thereby synchronously optimizing the underground root colonization and aboveground photosynthetic efficiency of plants in the special habitat of steep slope.

[0048] 5. Ecological and environmentally friendly: The core carrier is composed of non-polluting mineral-based ecological rock wool strip 21 and degradable water-permeable ecological bag 24, and the material full life cycle environmental adaptation is realized through the permanent structural stability of rock wool and the phased functional degradation of ecological bag: the rock wool strip continuously provides physical support during the use period, and the ecological bag gradually degrades after the function is replaced by the developed vegetation root system, which synchronously reduces resource consumption and secondary pollution risk, and meets the sustainability goal of slope ecological restoration project.

[0049] 6. Convenient construction and long-lasting effect: The standardized ecological rock wool strip 21 (1200mmx200mmx200mm) based on prefabricated component design and its matching anchoring system (L-shaped / U-shaped steel) realize modular rapid assembly, which significantly improves the on-site construction efficiency of high and steep slope; at the same time, through the closed matrix holding of planting groove 22, multi-stage control structure, three-dimensional mechanical anchoring network and slow-release nutrient system, the stress-resistant ecological restoration unit is constructed, which ensures that the vegetation community maintains a stable succession period of more than 3 years in the stress environment of water erosion, freeze-thaw cycle and nutrient fluctuation, and achieves the unity of engineering benefit and ecological sustainability.

[0050] To sum up, the present invention realizes the planting matrix fixation and hydraulic regulation through the composite wrapping structure of ecological rock wool strips 21 and permeable ecological bags 24, and coordinates the gravity bearing of the bottom glass fiber mesh support plate 20 and the three-dimensional mechanical anchoring network of L-shaped / U-shaped anchor rods to construct a four-fold synergistic mechanism for the ecological restoration of steep rock slopes - matrix anti-loss, long-term water retention, slow-release nutrient supply and structural anti-disturbance. It innovatively solves the key problems of structural stability, water retention, nutrient supply and anchoring reliability in the ecological restoration of steep rock slopes, and provides reliable technical support for the rapid, effective and long-term ecological restoration of steep rock slopes.
