Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of civil engineering technology, and in particular to a method for calculating the compressive strength of partial components of a prefabricated retaining wall. Background Technology

[0002] Prefabricated retaining walls are a common structural form used in highway, railway, and urban slope protection projects. They are assembled on-site from precast concrete components, offering advantages such as rapid installation, simple construction procedures, low cost, and ease of subsequent ecological restoration. This type of structure is widely used in slope protection for mountainous highways. However, in actual engineering applications, it has been found that some retaining walls have experienced varying degrees of cracking and crushing damage in their lower components. Analysis indicates that this is mainly due to the fact that existing design methods use the same dimensions for similar components arranged along the wall height, failing to consider the significant differences in active earth pressure at different heights. As the wall height increases, the horizontal earth pressure and vertical compressive stress borne by the bottom components increase significantly, while current design theories do not analyze or verify the compressive performance of local components, leading to an increased risk of localized instability under pressure in the lower components. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing retaining wall design theories that do not consider the risk of local compressive instability of lower components, and to provide a method for calculating the compressive performance of local components of prefabricated retaining walls.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for calculating the compressive strength of partial components of a prefabricated retaining wall, comprising: Establish partial component models of retaining walls based on different burial depths; The active earth pressure and self-weight of the retaining wall are obtained based on the local component model of the retaining wall. The normal stress perpendicular to the retaining wall is obtained by decomposing the force based on the local component model of the retaining wall. Based on the normal stress perpendicular to the retaining wall, the active earth pressure of the retaining wall, and the self-weight of the retaining wall, a first calculation model is established, in which the first calculation model is used to calculate the friction force. Based on the first calculation model, the active earth pressure and self-weight of the retaining wall are combined to establish a second calculation model, which is used to calculate the normal stress on local components. Based on the second calculation model, the compressive strength of reinforced concrete is calculated simultaneously to obtain the third calculation model, which is used to calculate the bearing area of ​​local components. Substituting the first and second calculation models into the third calculation model yields the fourth calculation model, which represents the relationship between the burial depth of the retaining wall and the bearing area of ​​local components. The bearing area of ​​local components under different retaining wall burial depths was obtained based on the fourth calculation model; The bearing area of ​​local components at different retaining wall burial depths is compared with the bearing area of ​​local components under actual working conditions to generate judgment information. The bearing area of ​​the actual local components is adjusted based on the judgment information.

[0011] Preferably, the determination information includes: When the bearing area of ​​a local component at different retaining wall burial depths is greater than the bearing area of ​​a local component under actual working conditions, the bearing area of ​​the local component under actual working conditions should be increased. When the bearing area of ​​a local component at different retaining wall burial depths is less than the bearing area of ​​the local component under actual working conditions, the bearing area of ​​the local component under actual working conditions shall be kept constant.

[0012] In a second aspect, the present invention provides an electronic device including at least one processor and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions being executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform the method described above.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention provides a method for calculating the compressive strength of local components of a prefabricated retaining wall. By constructing models of local components at different burial depths, and obtaining the normal stress perpendicular to the retaining wall through force decomposition, the method progressively calculates and constructs a relationship between the burial depth of the retaining wall and the bearing area of ​​the local components based on this normal stress. This relationship allows for the determination of the bearing area of ​​the local components at different burial depths. Comparing this bearing area with the bearing area of ​​the local components under actual working conditions facilitates optimization and adjustment of the bearing area under actual working conditions. This provides a basis for the design of local components in prefabricated retaining walls, enabling optimization of component dimensions based on stress distribution. Using this method, the risk of cracking or crushing damage to local components at the bottom of the retaining wall due to excessive pressure can be reduced, improving the overall safety and durability of the retaining wall structure.

The third calculation model is used to calculate the bearing area of ​​local components. Substituting the first and second calculation models into the third calculation model yields the fourth calculation model, which represents the relationship between the burial depth of the retaining wall and the bearing area of ​​local components. The bearing area of ​​local components under different retaining wall burial depths was obtained based on the fourth calculation model; The bearing area of ​​local components at different retaining wall burial depths is compared with the bearing area of ​​local components under actual working conditions to generate judgment information. The bearing area of ​​the actual local components is adjusted based on the judgment information.

[0022] In one or more embodiments, the calculation of the active earth pressure on the retaining wall of the model includes: ; in, For active earth pressure, The unit weight of the backfill soil behind the retaining wall.

For active earth pressure, d The angle of friction between the wall back and the backfill. e For the wall back slope angle, To account for the weight of the retaining wall, This refers to the frictional force exerted on the local components by the slope soil.

[0026] In one or more embodiments, the third computational model includes: ; ; ; in, For the compressive strength of local components, This refers to the bearing area of ​​a local component.

[0028] In one or more embodiments, the determination information includes: When the bearing area of ​​a local component at different retaining wall burial depths is greater than the bearing area of ​​a local component under actual working conditions, the bearing area of ​​the local component under actual working conditions is increased; when the bearing area of ​​a local component at different retaining wall burial depths is less than or equal to the bearing area of ​​a local component under actual working conditions, the bearing area of ​​the local component under actual working conditions is kept unchanged.

[0029] In this embodiment 1, the selected local component is the horizontal beam component near the back of the retaining wall.

[0030] Example 2 The present invention provides an electronic device including at least one processor and a memory communicatively connected to the at least one processor; the memory stores instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions being executed by the at least one processor to enable the at least one processor to perform the method of Embodiment 1.

[0031] Example 3 This embodiment is a detailed description of Embodiment 1: Based on the on-site construction conditions, the unit weight of the backfill soil behind the retaining wall and the active earth pressure coefficient and other geotechnical parameters were obtained. Based on the above parameters, local component models of the retaining wall under different retaining wall burial depth conditions were established respectively. After establishing the models for the burial depth of each retaining wall, the active earth pressure on the back of each model is calculated to obtain the active earth pressure value of the retaining wall as the burial depth changes. The stress condition of local components of the retaining wall is decomposed, and the normal stress component perpendicular to the back of the wall is extracted. Based on the mechanical relationship between the vertical normal stress and the active earth pressure, a first calculation model is constructed. The first calculation model is used to characterize the frictional force generated between the back of the wall and the local components. Based on the first calculation model, the active earth pressure and the self-weight of the retaining wall are calculated together to establish the second calculation model. The second calculation model is used to determine the normal stress borne by local components under different burial depths, providing stress input for subsequent compressive performance analysis. The formula for calculating the compressive strength of reinforced concrete is retrieved and combined with the second calculation model to construct a third calculation model; the third calculation model is used to calculate the required bearing area of ​​local components under different stress states. Substituting the first and second calculation models into the third calculation model, a fourth calculation model is derived; the fourth calculation model is used to represent the functional relationship between the burial depth of the retaining wall and the bearing area of ​​local components, thereby obtaining the regular curve of the bearing capacity of local components changing with the burial depth. The bearing area of ​​local components under different burial depths of retaining walls is obtained based on the fourth calculation model, which is used to characterize the theoretical bearing capacity of the components under different burial depth conditions. The bearing area of ​​local components at different burial depths is compared with the existing bearing area under actual engineering conditions. Judgment information is generated based on the differences. The judgment information is used to indicate whether the bearing capacity of the actual component meets the safety requirements. Based on the assessment information, the bearing area of ​​the actual local components is optimized and adjusted: When the theoretical bearing area is greater than the actual bearing area, it indicates that the design should be made to increase the actual bearing area. When the theoretical bearing area is less than or equal to the actual bearing area, the instruction is to keep the actual bearing area unchanged.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
