Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of retaining wall test devices, in particular to a loess reinforced retaining wall model test device. Background Art

[0002] Reinforced soil is a composite structure, in which flexible reinforcement materials are buried in the filler to improve the mechanical properties of the soil. Reinforced soil retaining wall consists of three parts: fill, reinforcement or reinforcement mesh arranged in the fill, and wall panel. The panel is tightened by the friction between the soil and the reinforcement to resist the passive earth pressure of the fill. The indoor test device of retaining wall is used to simulate the change of earth pressure in actual engineering, which has been widely used in the engineering field.

By adjusting the load size on the top of the model, the reinforced earth retaining wall model under different fill load levels can be simulated.

[0004] During use, the above-mentioned test device only considers the static load of soil pressure, while the loads on the retaining wall during use are mainly dynamic loads generated by the movement cycle of vehicles. Dynamic loads play a key role in affecting the durability, stability and safe operation of the retaining wall. If only relevant tests on static loads are carried out, the entire test result will be relatively simple and have a certain one-sidedness, resulting in inaccurate test results. In addition, the instability cases all show that when the retaining wall is subjected to the combined effects of rainfall and traffic loads on the top of the wall, the dynamic load of traffic will aggravate the infiltration of rainwater at the top of the wall, and will cause the excess pore water pressure in the saturated area of ​​the reinforced body to increase, increasing the probability of damage to the retaining wall, so the change process of the pore water pressure should also be paid attention to. The present application proposes a loess reinforced retaining wall model test device to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
