Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of deep foundation pits, in particular to a deep foundation pit structure on a riverbank side where an important road or other sensitive structures exist on a riverbank top. Background Art
[0002] There are many riverside buildings in water conservancy projects, such as water intake gates, tide gates, flood control gates, water intakes, and drainage outlets, which involve cofferdams and foundation pit projects during construction. When there are sensitive structures such as important roads and railways on the top of the river embankment, the foundation pit does not have the conditions for excavation and slope reduction, and only vertical support structures can be considered. However, for the foundation pit of the riverside building, since the riverbed is inclined and the terrain height difference on both sides of the vertical water flow direction is large, there is an imbalance in the soil pressure outside the foundation pit; and the vehicle load on the road on the top of the river embankment is large and the deformation control requirements are high, which makes the implementation of the foundation pit difficult. When the foundation pit is shallow, cantilever structures or diagonal bracing supports can be used; but when the foundation pit is deep, cantilever structures and diagonal bracing structures are difficult to meet their own stability and deformation requirements of the surrounding environment, and other technical solutions need to be adopted. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the problems existing in the existing deep foundation pit technology, the utility model provides a deep foundation pit system with a cofferdam serving as a supporting structure. By combining the cofferdam with the foundation pit supporting structure, the cofferdam filling pressure and the river water pressure are used to provide a supporting reaction force for the retaining structure, thereby ensuring the stability of the foundation pit structure itself, reducing the settlement deformation of the river embankment top, and controlling the deformation of the protected structure within the allowable range. At the same time, it can reduce the scope of the river occupied by the earth-rock cofferdam, which is more advantageous in saving the investment in the cofferdam project, avoiding the waterway and protecting the river ecological environment.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is:
[0005] The deep foundation pit system with the cofferdam also serving as the supporting structure includes an earth-rock cofferdam body, a vertical anti-seepage body, a retaining structure, and an internal supporting structure; the earth-rock cofferdam body is set on the river side and serves as the backfill area of the supporting structure to provide a supporting reaction force; the vertical anti-seepage body is set in the soil around the foundation pit to form a closed circle; the retaining structure serves as the vertical supporting structure of the deep foundation pit; the internal supporting structure is a horizontal supporting structure in the foundation pit, and its two ends are connected to the retaining structure. The remaining foundation pit structures such as precipitation wells and drainage ditches are the same as conventional building foundation pits and are set according to actual needs.
[0006] Furthermore, the earth-rock cofferdam body is mainly composed of riprap dikes, earth-rock backfill areas, steel mesh slope protection, anti-scouring riprap areas, and clay backfill areas. The riprap dikes are built above the normal water level and serve as the foundation of the cofferdam. The clay backfill area is located in the center of the earth-rock cofferdam body, the earth-rock backfill areas are located on both sides of the clay backfill area, the anti-scouring riprap area is located outside the earth-rock backfill area, and the steel mesh slope protection is located on the outermost water-facing side of the earth-rock cofferdam body.
[0007] Furthermore, the vertical anti-seepage body is in the form of a concrete anti-seepage wall, a cement mixing pile anti-seepage wall, a high-pressure rotary jet pile anti-seepage wall or a combination thereof to prevent or reduce the infiltration of river water and groundwater and provide a dry construction environment for the foundation pit.
[0008] Furthermore, the enclosure structure adopts concrete cast-in-place piles, or steel pipe piles, or concrete underground continuous walls. When closely spaced concrete cast-in-place piles or steel pipe piles are used, high-pressure jet grouting piles are used to caulk the gaps between the piles.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner support structure adopts concrete support, steel support or a combination of the two. If the plane size of the foundation pit is large, column piles and steel lattice columns are set in the foundation pit, and one or more layers of plane support are adopted according to the depth of the foundation pit.
[0010] The utility model adopts a vertical support form of a retaining structure combined with an internal supporting structure. An earth-rock cofferdam is set on the river side to allow water to enter and block water. At the same time, water and soil pressure is provided for the foundation pit support structure, forming a foundation pit support structure closed on all sides. A circle of vertical anti-seepage bodies is set around the foundation pit to increase the seepage path.
[0011] The construction process of the deep foundation pit system of the utility model with cofferdam serving as supporting structure is as follows:
[0012] S1. Fill the earth-rock cofferdam to the top elevation of the vertical anti-seepage body, construct the vertical anti-seepage body of the foundation pit, form an anti-seepage closed circle outside the foundation pit, and continue to fill the cofferdam to the designed top elevation;
[0013] S2. Construction of foundation pit retaining structure;
[0014] S3. Before excavating the foundation pit, drain and dewater the pit first, then carry out the construction of the internal support structure and the foundation pit excavation: first excavate to the bottom surface of the first support, construct the first support, and after the concrete support strength reaches 80% of the design strength, or after the steel support is prestressed, carry out subsequent excavation; continue to excavate to the bottom surface of the next support, repeat the above steps until the excavation reaches the bottom of the pit, and pour the bottom concrete cushion in time;
[0015] S4. Complete the construction of permanent buildings in the foundation pit;
[0016] S5. After the strength of the permanent buildings in the foundation pit reaches the design requirements, the redundant parts of the supporting structure and the surrounding structure in the foundation pit shall be removed;
[0017] S6. Dismantle the earth-rock cofferdam.
[0018] Furthermore, in step S2, if a dewatering well is provided, the dewatering well is constructed in the pit at the same time.
[0019] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0020] 1. The utility model combines the cofferdam project with the foundation pit support structure, and uses the backfill soil pressure of the cofferdam and the water pressure of the river channel to provide support reaction force, which can effectively control the settlement and deformation of the embankment top road, ensure that the embankment top road construction period is not interrupted, and protect the safety of the embankment top road construction period;
[0021] 2. The foundation pit of the utility model adopts a vertical support method. By combining the cofferdam with the foundation pit, the slope length of the cofferdam close to the foundation pit is greatly shortened, which can effectively reduce the scope of the river occupied by the cofferdam. It is more advantageous when the river is a waterway or has ecological protection requirements;
[0022] 3. Since the river bank terrain is higher than the riverbed, after the cofferdam is offset to the road side of the top of the embankment, not only the axis of the cofferdam is reduced, but also the height is greatly reduced, which effectively saves the investment in the cofferdam project.
