Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of soil retaining engineering, and more specifically, to a method for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall under the rotation mode around the wall base. Background Technology

[0002] Earth pressure problems involving counterweight retaining walls are related to slope safety and settlement deformation of the top surface of embankments in embankment projects, covering many fields such as railways, highways, municipal works, and building construction. The focus is on calculating and analyzing the earth pressure on counterweight retaining walls to provide a fundamental basis for related engineering designs. Therefore, the reasonable calculation of active earth pressure on counterweight retaining walls is one of the key issues of concern in related engineering practice.

[0003] Methods for calculating active earth pressure on counterweight retaining walls generally fall into two categories: classical limit equilibrium theory analysis and numerical simulation methods. Among these, the approximate theoretical analysis method, represented by the limit equilibrium method, is the most commonly used method in practice. In particular, a commonly used limit equilibrium method in relevant Chinese technical manuals is the upper and lower wall slip surface method. This method includes the first and second rupture surfaces of the upper wall and the lower wall, all three of which are planar. It assumes that the inclination angle of the second rupture surface of the upper wall is a fixed value, and then calculates the earth pressure on the wall based on the condition of maximum active earth pressure. While this method is simple to operate, a significant drawback is that the location of the slip surface in the soil behind the wall differs considerably from the actual location, often leading to an unsafe situation where the calculated earth pressure is less than the actual value.

[0004] To address this issue, previous studies have relied on the traditional "first rupture surface of the upper wall, second rupture surface of the lower wall, and rupture surface of the lower wall" soil sliding model, reducing the internal friction angle of the soil behind the upper wall to calculate earth pressure. However, the relevant internal friction angle reduction value is closely related to the backfill properties, geometric characteristics, and wall geometry. Existing internal friction angle reduction methods rely on empirical values ​​for typical cases and lack broad applicability. Numerical simulation is generally a viable solution. However, reasonable numerical modeling involves a series of steps, including wall-soil interface simulation, model mesh generation, soil constitutive modeling, and boundary conditions. The calculation process is complex and time-consuming, making it unsuitable for rapid multi-parameter scheme comparison and design, and thus difficult to widely implement in practical engineering designs. Therefore, these methods cannot provide the fast, simple, reasonable, and widely applicable method required for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall in practical engineering. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a simple, reasonable and easy-to-operate method for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall under the rotation mode around the wall base. The technical solution is as follows:

[0006] A method for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall under rotation mode around the wall base, wherein the contact surface between the counterweight retaining wall and the backfill soil includes the lower wall back, the platform, and the upper wall back; characterized in that the calculation method includes the following steps:

[0007] Step 10: Along the slope direction, within the slope cross section, project the lower wall back, platform, and upper wall back as segments AB, BC, and CD respectively; project the bottom surface of the wall as segment AK; project the top surface of the backfill behind the wall as a straight line or two broken line segments DYJ composed of segments DY and YJ; project the action surface of segment YJ and strip load as segment ZI; project the overall slip surface as two broken line segments AQF composed of segments AQ and QF; and project the local slip surface as a straight line segment XBQ composed of segments XB and BQ.

[0008] Step 20: Using segments AQF and XBQ, the potential sliding soil wedge ABCDXYFQ behind the wall under two rotation modes, rotating around the wall toe K point and rotating around the wall heel A point, is divided into three zones: the rear side zone XYFQ, the upper wall zone DXBC, and the lower wall zone ABQ.

[0009] Step 30: Establish equations for each zone according to the mechanical equilibrium conditions to determine the earth pressure acting on segments AB, BC and CD.

[0010] Step 40: Taking the wall as a condition for rotating around the wall toe point K or the wall heel point A and making the backfill behind the wall reach an active limit equilibrium state, the optimization solution method is used to calculate the overall slip surface inclination angle, the local slip surface inclination angle, and the active earth pressure acting on the upper back wall, platform, lower back wall, and the entire wall under the two rotation modes.

[0011] The outstanding advantages of the active earth pressure calculation method for a counterweight retaining wall under the rotation mode around the wall base in this invention are as follows: First, this invention reasonably considers the general combination morphology of the soil slip surface behind the wall, and uses two segments of broken-line slip surface to represent the overall slip surface, avoiding the irrationality of the previous method based on a single straight-line overall slip surface; Second, this invention defines the control condition for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall by using the minimum wall stability coefficient to calculate the location of the soil slip surface and the active earth pressure of the counterweight retaining wall, breaking through the limitations and irrationality of the previous method that used the maximum active earth pressure condition. Furthermore, the mechanical concepts of this invention are clear, the principles are simple, the specific calculation operations and formulas are relatively simple, it is easy to implement computer calculations, and the calculation results are more reasonable. It can calculate and determine the inclination angles of the overall slip surface and local slip surface, as well as the earth pressure acting on the upper back, platform, lower back, and the entire wall of the counterweight retaining wall. It avoids the complex modeling and analysis steps and time-consuming calculation process of numerical simulation methods, and provides a convenient, effective, and more conceptually reasonable method for the calculation of active earth pressure on counterweight retaining walls and related engineering designs, taking into account both technical significance and engineering practical value.

Figure 2 This is a force analysis diagram of the wall and the backfill soil in the active earth pressure calculation method of a counterweight retaining wall under the rotation mode around the wall base of the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the method for calculating the active earth pressure of a counterweight retaining wall under the rotation mode around the wall base according to the present invention includes the following steps:

[0026] Step 10: The contact surface between the counterweight retaining wall 100 and the backfill 200 includes the lower wall back 500, the platform 400, and the upper wall back 300. Along the slope direction, within the cross section of the slope, the lower wall back 500, the platform 400, and the upper wall back 300 are projected as segments AB, BC, and CD, respectively. The bottom surface of the wall is projected as segment AK. The top surface of the backfill 200 is projected as a straight line or two broken line segments DYJ composed of segments DY and YJ. The surface on which segment YJ interacts with the strip load is projected as segment ZI. The overall slip surface is projected as two broken line segments AQF composed of segments AQ and QF. The local slip surface is projected as a straight line segment XBQ composed of segments XB and BQ.

[0027] Step 20: For the counterweight retaining wall 100 under the action of the backfill 200 and the top surface load, the possible rotation modes around the bottom of the wall are mainly rotation around the wall toe K point and rotation around the wall heel A point. Using the AQF segment and XBQ segment, the potential sliding soil wedge ABCDXYFQ behind the wall under the two rotation modes is divided into 3 zones, namely the rear side zone XYFQ, the upper wall zone DXBC and the lower wall zone ABQ.

[0028] Step 30: Establish equations for each zone according to the mechanical equilibrium conditions to determine the earth pressure acting on segments AB, BC, and CD, including the resultant normal earth pressure E acting on segment CD. a1 The resultant normal earth pressure E acting on segment BC a2 The resultant normal earth pressure E acting on segment AB b1 The resultant force T of the tangential earth pressure acting on segment CD a1 The resultant force T of the tangential earth pressure acting on segment BC a2 The resultant force T of the tangential earth pressure acting on segment AB b1 The details are as follows:

[0029] For the rear lateral region XYFQ, the following can be derived from the mechanical equilibrium conditions:

[0030] (1)

[0031] According to the Coulomb strength criterion, we can obtain:

[0032] (2)

[0033] For the upper wall region DXBC, the following can be derived from the mechanical equilibrium conditions:

[0034] (3-1)

[0035] (3-2)

[0036] According to the Coulomb strength criterion, we can obtain:

[0037] (4)

[0038] For the lower wall region ABQ, the following can be derived from the mechanical equilibrium conditions:

[0039] (5)

[0040] According to the Coulomb strength criterion, we can obtain:

[0041] (6)

[0042] Therefore, the earth pressures acting on segments AB, BC, and CD can all be represented by four independent variables: the horizontal inclination angle θ1 of segment QF, the vertical inclination angle θ2 at point B, the endpoint of platform BC, the horizontal inclination angle θ3 of segment AQ, and the normal earth pressure E acting on segment XB. a .

[0043] Step 40: Taking the wall rotation around point K (toe) or point A (heel) as a condition, and ensuring that the backfill behind the wall reaches an active limit equilibrium state, an optimization solution method is used to calculate the overall slip surface inclination angle, the local slip surface inclination angle, and the active earth pressure acting on the upper back wall 300, platform 400, lower back wall 500, and the entire wall under the two rotation modes, as detailed below:

[0044] For the rotation mode of the wall about point K at the wall toe, the governing equation for its active limit state is:

[0045] (7)

[0046] The point of application of the resultant earth pressure acting on segment CD is taken as the height H above point C. a At point / 3, the point of application of the resultant earth pressure acting on segment BC is taken as the midpoint of segment BC, and the point of application of the resultant earth pressure acting on segment AB is taken as 5H above point A. b / 12 places.

[0047] In equation (7), the anti-tilting moment M of the wall rotating about point K at the wall toe is... r t and overturning moment M d t The expressions are as follows:

[0048] (8)

[0049] (9)

[0050] The moment M generated by the wall's self-weight on point K at the wall toe GK The expression is:

[0051] (10)

[0052] The rotation mode of the wall about its heel point A is mainly controlled by the bearing capacity of the foundation, and its active limit state governing equation is:

[0053] (11)

[0054] In the formula, the maximum compressive stress σ of the base is... max It can be calculated based on earth pressure using the static equilibrium condition of the wall, and its expression is:

[0055] (12)

[0056] The expression for the normal pressure N at the bottom of the wall is:

[0057] (13)

[0058] The vertical component E of the resultant earth pressure acting on the wall V The vertical component E of the resultant earth pressure on the back of the wall aV The vertical component E of the resultant earth pressure force of the platform mV The vertical component E of the resultant earth pressure on the back of the wall bV The expressions are as follows:

[0059] (14)

[0060] (15)

[0061] Wall self-weight G W The expression is:

[0062] (16)

[0063] The resultant moment M of earth pressure and the wall's self-weight b The moment M of the earth pressure on the back of the wall at the centroid of the bottom surface of the wall. rO The moment M of the wall's self-weight about the centroid of the wall's base. GO The expressions are as follows:

[0064] (17)

[0065] (18)

[0066] When the wall rotates around point K (the toe) or point A (the heel) and the backfill behind the wall reaches an active limit equilibrium state, the overall rotational stability of the wall has a minimum stability coefficient. Therefore, the corresponding optimization solution method is to mathematically transform the problem of solving the active earth pressure under the two rotation modes into solving for four independent variables θ1, θ2, θ3, and E under this minimum stability coefficient. a The optimized solution value includes the following two cases:

[0067] (1) For the rotation mode of the wall about the wall toe K point, the four independent variables θ1, θ2, θ3, and E corresponding to the minimum stability coefficient a The optimized solution value θ 1t θ 2t θ 3t E at The calculation expression is:

[0068] (19)

[0069] (2) For the rotation mode of the wall around the wall heel point A, the four independent variables θ1, θ2, θ3, and E corresponding to the minimum stability coefficient are a The optimized solution value θ 1h θ 2h θ 3h E ah The calculation expression is:

[0070] (20)

[0071] In equations (19) and (20), the four independent variables are θ1, θ2, θ3, and E. a The constraints that need to be satisfied are:

[0072] (twenty one)

[0073] Among them, K a c This is the Coulomb active earth pressure coefficient, and its expression is:

[0074] (twenty two)

[0075] Based on equations (19)-(22), θ1, θ2, θ3, and E are obtained under the two rotation modes respectively. a The optimized solution value θ 1t θ 2t θ 3t E at With θ 1h θ 2h θ 3h E ah Then, substituting these values ​​into equations (2) to (6), the active earth pressure E acting on segments CD, BC, and AB under the rotation modes around the wall toe K and around the wall heel A can be calculated respectively. a1 With T a1 E a2 With T a2 E b1 With T b1 Then, according to equations (14) and (15), the vertical component E of the resultant earth pressure acting on the entire wall can be calculated. V .

[0076] The horizontal component E of the resultant earth pressure acting on the entire wall H The horizontal component E of the resultant earth pressure on the back of the wall aH The horizontal component E of the resultant earth pressure force of the platformmH The horizontal component E of the resultant earth pressure on the back of the wall bH The expressions are as follows:

[0077] (twenty three)

[0078] (twenty four)

[0079] Therefore, the resultant earth pressure E acting on the entire wall can be calculated as follows:
