[0002] In civil engineering, the base pit side wall retaining wall body is an important temporary supporting structure for retaining soil, which supports the side wall soil to prevent collapse, and is widely used as a concrete pouring form in various project constructions.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 7 The present invention proposes a reinforced brick formwork retaining wall, comprising a retaining wall body matching the depth of the foundation pit. The retaining wall body is constructed of perforated bricks, and the holes of the perforated bricks in contact with the upper and lower parts of the retaining wall body are interconnected to form an insertion hole extending along the height direction of the retaining wall body. Each perforated brick is equipped with at least one tension bar smaller than the insertion hole, and the tension bar is inserted into the insertion hole of the retaining wall body. Figure 4 , 5 As shown, a concrete pad is provided at the bottom of the retaining wall body, and the bottom of the tension bar is inserted into the concrete pad. The length of the tension bar matches the depth of the foundation pit. Concrete is poured into the insertion holes of the tension bar in the retaining wall body.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown in this embodiment, the holes on the porous brick are divided into two groups along the length direction. The two groups of holes are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the length direction. The distance between the two groups of holes is d. The diameter of the holes on each group of porous bricks is c. The edge distance of the holes is a. The distance between adjacent holes is also a.
[0031] This invention also includes a construction method for a reinforced brick formwork retaining wall, specifically comprising the following steps:
[0032] S1. Select the perforated brick model and calculate the thickness of the retaining wall body according to the condition of the foundation pit;
[0033] S11. Calculate the required thickness of the retaining wall body to resist the lateral pressure of the retaining wall:

[0040] S12. Calculate the design thickness of the retaining wall body:
[0041] The earth pressure per unit length of the retaining wall is the Rankine active earth pressure. When the retaining wall body is reinforced with tensile reinforcement to enhance its overall bending and shear resistance, and the retaining wall body is constructed with porous bricks using cement mortar, the shear bearing capacity per unit length of the retaining wall body is: :
[0042] (3)
[0043] in This represents the design value of the horizontal shear strength of the retaining wall body. The width of the retaining wall body is the cross-sectional width. The thickness of the retaining wall body. This represents the design value of the tensile strength of the reinforcing bars within the retaining wall structure. The coefficient for the shear resistance efficiency of the tension reinforcement bars in the retaining wall body. The preferred value is 0.3~0.5. To account for the reinforcement value of the dowel bars participating in shear resistance, Based on the perforated brick model selected in S1, the spacing and diameter of the pre-set insert bars are determined by using the hole spacing of adjacent perforated bricks as the basis for the calculation. The following example illustrates this:
[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, assuming the mortar joint thickness is 10mm, a=25mm, c=20mm, and d=60mm, then S1=45mm, S2=80mm, S3=125mm, and S4=170mm. Therefore, the reinforcement spacing has two possibilities: S3=125mm, (S1+S2) / 2=62.5mm, and (S2+S4) / 2=125mm. The reinforcement diameter, spacing, and reinforcement values are shown in Table 1.

[0049] Commonly used specifications for perforated bricks include 240mm×115mm×53mm and 190mm×190mm×90mm. The actual thickness of the retaining wall body should not be less than the designed thickness of the retaining wall body. The perforated bricks have holes arranged on the top so that when the perforated bricks are laid in a header and stretcher pattern, the holes can be aligned vertically.
[0050] S2. Based on the masonry method and the design thickness of the retaining wall body calculated in S1, construct the retaining wall body in the foundation pit.
[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the arrangement of the custom holes on the perforated brick is as follows: Let the length of the perforated brick be A and the width be B. The holes on the perforated brick are divided into two groups along the length direction. The two groups of holes are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the length direction. The distance between the two groups of holes is d. The diameter of the holes in each group of perforated bricks is c. The edge distance of the holes in each group of perforated bricks is a. The distance between adjacent holes in each group of perforated bricks is a. The holes are square holes or round holes. Here, the edge distance refers to the shortest distance between the outermost hole on the perforated brick and the edge of the perforated brick. The distance between adjacent holes refers to the shortest distance between the outer edges of adjacent holes in the same row or column. Finally, the perforated brick retaining wall is constructed by alternating headers and stretchers.

[0060] When subjected to bending, the lower part of the brickwork is under tension and the upper part is under compression. By installing tension reinforcement bars, the tensile stress on the bending section can be effectively resisted, thereby improving the overall bending resistance and the bending bearing capacity of the reinforced retaining wall. It can be represented as:

[0062] Flexural bearing capacity requirements of the retaining wall body's cross-section: ;
[0063] in, The width of the retaining wall body is the cross-sectional width. The thickness of the retaining wall body. The effective thickness of the retaining wall body is the distance from the center axis of the tension reinforcement bar closest to the foundation pit within the retaining wall body to the inner wall of the foundation pit; for example...

The bonding efficiency coefficient between the tension reinforcement bars and the porous brick with mortar is given. The preferred value is 0.75~0.9. The height of the compression zone of the bending section of the retaining wall. This represents the design value of the compressive strength of the retaining wall body. According to the masonry specifications, and based on formula (6), we can obtain:

[0074] Then reinforcement value (12)
[0075] In this embodiment, wherein , The limit value for the relative height of the compression zone is determined with reference to the limit values for the relative height of the compression zone of composite brick masonry components in the "Code for Design of Masonry Structures". For HRB400 grade tension reinforcement, the value is 0.36; for HRB335 grade tension reinforcement, the value is 0.44; and for HPB300 grade tension reinforcement, the value is 0.47. For retaining walls using perforated bricks as the retaining wall body, HRB400 grade tension reinforcement is used. The possible value is 0.35;

[0078] S32. Tension reinforcement bars are installed within the retaining wall body:
[0079] Based on the calculated reinforcement values obtained in step S31 Tensile reinforcement bars are installed in the holes on one side of the porous brick. The installation method for the tensile reinforcement bars is as follows:
[0080] Under the condition that at least one tensile reinforcement bar is required in each porous brick, the reinforcement value should be utilized. Calculate the maximum diameter D of the required tension reinforcement bars and the actual number of tension reinforcement bars for each porous brick, and then insert the tension reinforcement bars into the holes of the porous brick.
[0081] S4. Grouting of holes containing tension reinforcement bars in porous bricks:
[0082] like Figure 4 As shown, grouting is performed inside the insertion holes equipped with tension bars to fix the tension bars within the holes, ensuring the synergistic effect between the tension bars and the brickwork. Furthermore, as...Figure 4 , 5 As shown, a concrete pad layer can be added to the bottom of the retaining wall body, and the bottom of the tension reinforcement can be inserted into the concrete pad layer and anchored by grouting; alternatively, the tension reinforcement can be inserted into the soil layer and then anchored by grouting, thus improving the tension anchoring effect of the tension reinforcement.
