Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a temporary water retaining structure, in particular to a composite temporary water retaining structure combining a CSM (Cutter Soil Mixing) method diaphragm wall and an earth-rock cofferdam applicable to a gravelly pebble foundation, aiming to provide stable and safe dry construction conditions for water-related projects in a gravelly pebble foundation. Background Art
[0002] Generally, the construction of water-related buildings requires the setting of a temporary cofferdam in the construction section to ensure the dry working environment and construction safety of construction personnel and machinery in the foundation pit. The anti-seepage of the cofferdam is one of the key difficulties in such projects.
[0003] In water-related projects, the earth-rock cofferdam structure usually adopts a concrete cut-off wall as an anti-seepage curtain. For a large-particle-size gravelly pebble foundation with a particle size generally above 20 cm, due to the uneven grading of the soil layer, local collapse of the trench is likely to occur during the trench excavation construction. At the same time, the surface layer of the gravelly pebble stratum is long-term scoured by water flow, and there is no bonding medium between the pebbles, which increases its porosity and reduces its integrity. The turbulent flow generated inside the slurry in the trench caused by mechanical construction will increase the risk of trench collapse. The trench collapse will make the top construction platform prone to suspension, increasing the risk and probability of the collapse of the construction platform. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides an earth-rock cofferdam adopting a CSM method curtain, which can ensure the construction safety of the anti-seepage curtain in a large-particle-size gravelly pebble foundation.
[0005] The utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] The earth-rock cofferdam adopting a CSM method curtain includes an earth-rock mixture cofferdam body, a CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain, and a geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket; the CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain adopts a double-wheel milling equal-thickness mixing cement-soil continuous wall, which is arranged on the water-facing side of the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body, and the CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain extends into the impervious layer by 0.5 m; the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket includes a vertical connection section and a slope section of the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket. The vertical connection section and the slope section of the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket are connected. The bottom of the vertical connection section of the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket is embedded in the CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain, and the top of the slope section of the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket is laid to the top of the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body.
[0007] Further, the top of the CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain is not less than 1.0 m higher than the average water level during the construction period of the cofferdam.
[0008] Further, the lap length of the bottom of the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket embedded in the CSM method cut-off and seepage prevention curtain is not less than 0.5 m.
[0009] Furthermore, large boulders are laid on the water-facing side of the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body for slope protection, with a thickness of not less than 1.0 m.
[0010] The construction method of the present utility model includes the following steps:
[0011] S1. Clean and level the foundation;
[0012] Before filling the cofferdam, remove the boulders and large-sized floating stones on the riverbed surface and level them.
[0013] S2. Build the construction platform for the cut-off curtain;
[0014] Fill the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body to the initial filling elevation, which is more than 1.0 m above the average water level during the construction period of the cofferdam. Roll and level the top of the cofferdam, and lay the roadbed steel plates to form a construction platform.
[0015] S3. Construct the cut-off curtain;
[0016] Carry out the construction operation of the CSM cut-off curtain method, with its bottom extending into the impervious layer and the top constructed to the top of the construction platform.
[0017] Before the initial setting of the CSM cut-off curtain, embed the anti-seepage slot template connected to the geotextile membrane composite anti-seepage blanket at the top of the CSM cut-off curtain. The width of the anti-seepage slot is distributed along the axis of the CSM cut-off curtain. The height of the anti-seepage slot can be adjusted according to the actual implementation situation.
[0018] S4. Remove the anti-seepage slot template;
[0019] Wait until the CSM cut-off curtain reaches the design strength and then remove the anti-seepage slot 21 template.
[0020] S5. Embed the anti-seepage blanket;
[0021] Embed the anti-seepage geotextile membrane in the geotextile membrane composite anti-seepage blanket into the anti-seepage slot, and at the same time fill the anti-seepage slot with concrete.
[0022] S6. Construct the vertical connection section of the anti-seepage blanket;
[0023] Construct the vertical connection section of the geotextile membrane composite anti-seepage blanket, which is composed of the anti-seepage geotextile membrane and well-graded medium-coarse sand on both sides.

[0026] The anti-seepage geomembrane is laid along the vertical axis direction (force-bearing direction) in the length direction (warp direction), and it is required to be laid in one piece without splicing. It is laid with an overlap in the non-force-bearing direction (weft direction). After the geomembrane is laid, the construction of its protective layer should be carried out as soon as possible to ensure that the exposure time of the geomembrane does not exceed 7 days. Otherwise, effective measures should be taken to avoid direct sunlight. If damage or holes are found during construction, they should be repaired in time with the same material. Seam connection is preferred on land, and overlap connection is used on water.
[0027] S8. Lay the riprap slope protection.
[0028] Lay large-sized riprap on the upstream water-facing side of the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body.
[0029] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0030] Based on the earth-rock mixture cofferdam body, the present utility model adopts the double-wheel milling equal-thickness mixing cement-soil continuous wall of the CSM method as the cut-off curtain, and cooperates with the geomembrane composite anti-seepage blanket to solve the anti-seepage problem of the diversion structure on the large-particle-size sand-gravel foundation. The structure of the present utility model has good adaptability to the large-particle-size sand-gravel foundation.
