Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of jacking of bridge engineering pile foundations, and specifically relates to a jacking and reinforcement structure for bridge pile foundations after settlement. Background Technique
[0002] As an important transportation infrastructure, bridges undertake important tasks of transportation and connection. With the development of the economy and the increase in traffic volume, the usage frequency and load of bridges are also continuously growing. During the long-term use of bridges, due to the influence of various factors such as natural factors, traffic loads, material aging, and construction quality, bridge pile foundations may suffer from diseases such as settlement, cracks, and corrosion. These diseases will reduce the bearing capacity of the bridges, affect the stability and safety of the bridges, and may even lead to bridge collapse accidents, causing huge economic losses and social impacts.
[0003] Pile foundation settlement is a relatively common bridge disease. It refers to the vertical or horizontal displacement of bridge pile foundations under the action of loads due to reasons such as compression, liquefaction, and loss of foundation soil layers, which in turn causes problems such as deformation and cracking of the bridge structure. Pile foundation settlement not only affects the normal use of bridges but also poses a threat to the safety of bridges. Therefore, the research and treatment of bridge pile foundation settlement problems have important practical significance.
[0004] However, in traditional pile foundation reinforcement designs, mainly the pile foundations are reinforced, and the bridge deck is paved and leveled. Paving and leveling the bridge deck increases the secondary dead load and the dead load ratio, which is not conducive to the stress of the main girder. For continuous beams, the vertical displacement of the pile foundation generates additional bending moments on the main girder, affecting the structural stress. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The utility model provides a jacking and reinforcement structure for bridge pile foundations after settlement, effectively solving the problems of jacking and resetting of the main girder and insufficient bearing capacity of the pile foundations. The jacking and reinforcement structure of this application uses a temporary jacking foundation combined with temporary jacking equipment. The reinforced cap is poured in two phases. The first-phase cap is connected to the original bridge cap and serves as a jacking stress member. After jacking and resetting, the second-phase cap is poured and connected to the newly built pile foundation to achieve the purpose of pile foundation jacking and reinforcement.
[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is specifically as follows:
[0007] A jacking and reinforcement structure for bridge pile foundations after settlement, the jacking and reinforcement structure is based on the jacking and reinforcement of the original bridge, and the jacking and reinforcement structure includes:

[0012] Wherein, the newly built bearing platform is supported by newly built pile foundations;
[0013] Wherein, the newly built bearing platform is temporarily supported by a combination of concrete-filled steel tubular columns and jacks.

[0015] Wherein, the first-stage concrete of the bearing platform is cast and formed on the original bearing platform of the original bridge;
[0016] Wherein, the second-stage concrete of the bearing platform is cast and formed on the first-stage concrete of the bearing platform.
[0017] Furthermore, steps should be set at the transverse edges of the first-stage concrete of the bearing platform, and the second-stage concrete of the bearing platform is cast along the steps.
[0018] Furthermore, the combination of the concrete-filled steel tubular columns and the jacks supports the first-stage concrete of the bearing platform.
[0019] Furthermore, the newly built pile foundations support the second-stage concrete of the bearing platform.
[0020] Furthermore, the jacking temporary foundation is arranged in a double row on both sides of the original bridge piles of the original bridge.
[0021] Furthermore, column connection members are arranged between two adjacent concrete-filled steel tubular columns;
[0022] The column connection members are divided into longitudinal connection members and transverse connection members;
[0023] Wherein, the concrete-filled steel tubular columns located on the same jacking temporary foundation are connected by transverse connection members;
[0024] The concrete-filled steel tubular columns 5 between the two jacking temporary foundations 4 on both sides of the original bridge piles 1-3 are connected by longitudinal connection members.
[0025] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: First, the temporary support can be recycled, saving project costs;

[0027] Third, after the jacking is completed, the bridge can be restored to the designed alignment to achieve the purpose of resetting.
[0028] Fourth, after the jacking is completed, the newly built pile foundation and the original bridge pile foundation act together to achieve the purpose of improving the bearing capacity of the pile foundation.

Detailed Embodiments
[0034] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and through specific embodiments:
[0035] Embodiment 1
[0036] Referring to the attached Figures 1 to 3 , the present invention provides a jacking and reinforcement structure for a bridge pile foundation after settlement, aiming to provide a jacking and reinforcement structure for resetting the main girder and improving the bearing capacity of the pile foundation after the settlement of the in-service bridge pile foundation. The jacking and reinforcement structure includes: the newly built pile foundation 2, the newly built cap 3, the jacking temporary foundation 4, the concrete-filled steel tube column 5 and the jack 7.
[0037] The connection method of the newly built pile foundation 2 is the key to the reinforcement project. The newly built pile foundation 2 uses deep mixing or grouting technology to mix with the soil around the original bridge pile foundation 1-3 to form a composite pile foundation, enhancing the overall bearing capacity of the soil. The newly built pile foundation 2 is used to permanently lift the bridge pile foundation.
[0038] As Figure 1 and 3 shown, the jacking temporary foundation 4 is directly poured on the riverbed 8. During the pouring process, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the foundation of the jacking temporary foundation 4. The jacking temporary foundation 4 is poured in two rows on both sides of the original bridge pile foundation 1-3.
[0039] The concrete-filled steel tube column 5 is installed on the jacking temporary foundation 4. To ensure the stability of the support of the concrete-filled steel tube column 5, the concrete-filled steel tube columns 5 located on the same jacking temporary foundation 4 are connected by the transverse connecting member 6-2 of the column connecting member 6, and the concrete-filled steel tube columns 5 on the two jacking temporary foundations 4 on both sides of the original bridge pile foundation 1-3 are connected by the longitudinal connecting member 6-1 of the column connecting member 6.
[0040] The first-stage cap concrete 3-1 is poured on the original bridge cap 1-2 of the original bridge 1. After the first-stage cap concrete 3-1 reaches the design strength, the jack 7 is installed between the first-stage cap concrete 3-1 and the concrete-filled steel tube column 5. Through the synchronous support of the jack 7, the sunken main girder is jacked up and reset.
[0041] As Figure 2 shown, steps 3-1-1 should be set at the transverse edges of the first-stage cap concrete 3-1. After the jacking and resetting are completed, the second-stage cap concrete 3-2 is poured to connect with the new pile foundation 2 and the first-stage cap concrete 3-1.
[0042] The top elevation of the new pile foundation 2 should be determined in combination with the vertical jacking distance to ensure that the bottom elevation of the second-stage cap concrete 3-2 is the same as the top elevation of the new pile foundation 2 after jacking. During jacking, the original bridge pile foundation 1-3 can be partially demolished within the riverbed range, and the structural dimensions can be restored after jacking.
[0043] After the second-stage cap concrete 3-2 reaches the design strength, the temporary foundation 4, the concrete-filled steel tube column 5, the column connecting member 6, and the jack 7 are demolished. The concrete-filled steel tube column 5, the column connecting member 6, and the jack 7 can be reused to reduce the project investment.
[0044] The specific construction method is as follows:
[0045] According to the riverbed line and the distance between the caps, the heights of the concrete-filled steel tube column 5 and the jacking temporary foundation 4 are determined, and the steel tube column 5 and the column connecting member 6 are processed in the factory. During construction, the new pile foundation 2 and the jacking temporary foundation 4 are constructed first. After the jacking temporary foundation 4 reaches the design strength, the concrete-filled steel tube column 5 and the column connecting member 6 are installed. When installing the formwork for the first-stage cap concrete 3-1, attention should be paid to avoiding the installation and jacking positions of the jack 7. After jacking, the second-stage cap concrete 3-2 is poured to connect with the new pile foundation 2 and the first-stage cap concrete 3-1 to achieve the jacking and resetting of the bridge and the reinforcement of the pile foundation.
