[0033] See also Figure 1 Now, a soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure based on wooden piles and geogrids provided in an embodiment of the utility model is described.

[0034] In one embodiment, a soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure based on wood piles and geogrids in an embodiment of the utility model comprises: an earth embankment body 2, a reinforced embankment slope 4, a soft soil embankment foundation 5, wood piles 7, a gravel backfill layer 9, a ballast platform 6 and a geogrid 10. A embankment top road 1 is provided on the upper part of the earth embankment body 2, and the side is the original embankment slope 3; the reinforced embankment slope 4 is located on the outer side of the original embankment slope 2; the soft soil embankment foundation 5 is located on the lower side of the earth embankment body 2; a plurality of wood piles 7 form a wood pile array, and the lower end of each wood pile 7 is vertically inserted in the soft soil embankment foundation 5, and a steel wire mesh 8 is provided on the top; the gravel backfill layer 9 is laid on the wood piles 7; the ballast platform 6 is located on the upper side of the original embankment slope 2 and connected to the reinforced embankment slope 4; the geogrid 10 is located between the gravel backfill layer 9 and the ballast platform 6, and is laid layer by layer as the ballast platform 6 is filled.

[0035] In this embodiment, the trapezoidal section formed by the embankment top road 1, the earth embankment body 2, the original embankment slope 3 and the reinforced embankment slope 4 is the basic structure of the embankment reinforcement. The ballast platform 6, the wooden piles 7, the wire mesh 8, the gravel soil backfill layer 9 and the geogrid 10 constitute the soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure, which can be used on the water-facing side of the embankment body or on the backwater side of the embankment body. The soft soil embankment foundation 5 is generally silty soft soil, which has the characteristics of high natural water content, large porosity, high compressibility and low shear strength. The wooden piles 7 can be made of pine wood with strong bearing capacity. The wire mesh 8 can be formed by steel wires intertwined at the upper ends of the wooden piles 7 and connected to the pile tops of the wooden piles 7, so that the array composed of the wooden piles 7 has better integrity and forms a composite force-bearing structure.

[0036] A soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure based on wooden piles and geogrids in an embodiment of the utility model adopts wooden piles 7 as anti-slip piles, which play an anti-slip, side limit and load-bearing role, and improves the bearing capacity of the soft soil embankment foundation 5; the ballast platform 6 and the geogrid 10 are adopted to enhance the stability and integrity of the embankment slope, prevent the embankment slope from becoming unstable, ensure the safety of the embankment slope during the construction period and the operation period, and achieve good engineering effect.

[0037] In addition, the structure adopted in the embodiment of the utility model is convenient to obtain materials, has low engineering cost, simple construction process and short construction period, achieving the multi-faceted effects of structural safety, economical cost and short construction period.

[0038] Furthermore, the slope ratio of the reinforced embankment slope 4 of this embodiment is not steeper than 1:2.5 to prevent the embankment slope from sliding or collapsing.

[0039] Further, when the reinforced embankment slope 4 and the ballast platform 6 are located on the water-facing side of the embankment, the reinforced embankment slope 4 and the ballast platform 6 can be any one of prefabricated concrete block slope protection, ecological concrete slope protection or turf slope protection. When the reinforced embankment slope 4 and the ballast platform 6 are located on the water-retaining side of the embankment, the reinforced embankment slope 4 and the ballast platform 6 can be turf slope protection.

[0040] Furthermore, the wood piles 7 of this embodiment are located in the soft soil embankment foundation 5, and are arranged in a plum blossom shape, constituting a part of the embankment foundation. Specifically, the slope foot position is determined according to the cross section of the designed ballast platform 6, and the wood piles 7 are inserted in the soft soil embankment foundation 5 from the slope foot to the embankment body, and are arranged in a plum blossom shape. The elevation of the pile top can change from the slope foot to the original embankment slope 3 in the direction of the original embankment slope 3, so as to avoid the slope instability caused by digging the slope foot as much as possible.

[0041] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the wooden piles 7 are arranged in no less than 3 rows, the diameter of the wooden piles 7 is not less than 14 centimeters, the pile length is not less than four meters, and the spacing between the wooden piles 7 near the toe of the slope is smaller than the spacing between the wooden piles 7 near the original embankment slope 3, that is, the spacing between the wooden piles 7 near the toe of the slope is denser than the wooden piles 7 near the embankment body, so as to achieve a better reinforcement effect.

[0042] Furthermore, the gravel backfill layer 9 of this embodiment is located on the top of the wooden pile 7 and serves as a cushion layer. The backfill range is 0.5 meters outward from the top of the pile, the sand content is about 30%, and the thickness is generally 20 to 30 cm. The gravel backfill layer 9 is beneficial to foundation drainage and can also improve the integrity of the wooden pile 7 array.

[0043] Furthermore, the width of the ballast platform 6 of this embodiment is not less than two meters, the slope ratio below the ballast platform 6 is not steeper than the slope ratio of the reinforced embankment slope 4, and the slope ratio below the ballast platform 6 is not steeper than 1:2.5 to prevent landslide or collapse of the embankment slope.

[0044] Furthermore, the geogrid of this embodiment is provided with multiple layers, and the multiple layers of geogrids are overlapped with the original embankment slope 3 in a step-like manner. The geogrid 10 is located between the ballast platform 6 and the gravel backfill layer 9. When the embankment is reinforced, the original embankment slope 3 is excavated into a step-like shape, and the multiple layers of geogrids are placed on the excavated steps. They are laid layer by layer according to a certain thickness as the embankment is filled, which can improve the strength of the fill and reduce uneven settlement. The step-like overlap at the connection can strengthen the combination between the old embankment and the new embankment soil, so that the reinforcement effect of the soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure is better.

[0045] The overall construction sequence of a soft foundation embankment slope reinforcement structure based on wooden piles and geogrids in an embodiment of the utility model is from bottom to top. First, an array of wooden piles 7 is inserted into the soft soil embankment foundation 5; then, a steel wire mesh 8 is formed by winding and connecting the upper ends of the wooden piles 7, and a sand and gravel backfill layer 9 is laid on the top of the piles; finally, according to the designed section of the ballast platform 6, the embankment body soil is filled layer by layer and the geogrid 10 is laid until the designed elevation and width of the ballast platform 6 are reached.

[0046] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
