Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dam engineering, in particular to a greening structure for a downstream dam slope of a rockfill dam and a construction method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The downstream slope of the rockfill dam is steeper, generally 1:1.3 to 1:1.4. Conventional downstream slopes are generally built with dry stone or large stone, and some are built with stone strips. With the continuous improvement of ecological environment requirements, the downstream slopes of rockfill dams have gradually begun to use plant greening slope protection. Due to the steep slope of the downstream dam, the frame beam structure in the slope engineering is generally used to cover the soil for greening. Before the plants take root and consolidate the soil, the planting soil of the conventional frame beam greening slope protection is easily lost due to rain erosion. The height between the horse paths on the downstream slope of the rockfill dam is generally about 20m. The frame beam greening area between the horse paths is large, the slope is steep, and the height difference is large. It is very inconvenient to supplement the planting soil and maintain the green plants in the later stage, and there are certain safety hazards. The frame beam structure appears to be more abrupt in the green plants, especially the longitudinal frame beam is exposed even after the green plants grow up, affecting the overall greening landscape of the downstream dam slope.

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A greening structure for the downstream slope of a rockfill dam comprises a frame beam, a geotextile and a geocell; the frame beam is provided with a reinforced concrete cross beam and a reinforced concrete longitudinal beam, the reinforced concrete cross beam and the reinforced concrete longitudinal beam together form a frame, and the frame is filled with planting soil for planting green plants; the geotextile is laid at the bottom of the frame to prevent the planting soil from being lost into the rockfill body; the geocell is arranged on the geotextile in the frame to fix the planting soil in the frame to prevent the planting soil from being washed away along the slope by rainwater; the bottom of the reinforced concrete longitudinal beam is provided with a pre-buried pipe for later laying of a sprinkler system pipeline.
[0006] Furthermore, the top surface of the reinforced concrete beam is set as a horizontal plane, and an anti-slip strip is pressed on the surface, which is used to serve as a later maintenance path to facilitate the later maintenance of green plants in the frame.
[0007] Furthermore, the reinforced concrete longitudinal beam is set to be lower in height than the reinforced concrete transverse beam, and the surface and the inside of the frame are covered with soil and planted with green plants, so that the reinforced concrete longitudinal beam is hidden in the greenery.
[0008] Furthermore, the four sides of the geotextile are fixed to the four sides of the grid in the form of hemming or flanging to prevent the geotextile from being misaligned and leaking soil.

[0020] 2. The utility model can use the reinforced concrete cross beam as a later maintenance path to facilitate the later maintenance of plants;
