[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0026] This embodiment discloses a reinforcement structure for a gravity retaining wall. Figure 1 The cross-sectional structure of the reinforcement structure of the gravity retaining wall is shown; Figure 2 The front view of the reinforced structure of the gravity retaining wall is shown; Figure 3 The top view of the pad structure of the gravity retaining wall is shown; Figure 4 A partial side structure of the reinforcement structure of the gravity retaining wall is shown.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 This utility model discloses a gravity retaining wall reinforcement structure for reinforcing retaining wall 1. The structure includes a reinforcement component positioned above retaining wall 1 and a reinforcement wall 3 positioned on one side of retaining wall 1. The reinforcement component includes a metal plate 13 positioned above retaining wall 1, a concrete retaining wall 32 positioned on the metal plate 13, and several lattice beams 8 positioned on the concrete retaining wall 32. One end of each of the lattice beams 8 overlaps, and the overlapping section of the lattice beams has opposing first through holes 10. A bolt and nut assembly 11 passes through the first through holes 10, connecting and fixing the lattice beams 8 to each other. The metal plate 13 increases the stability of retaining wall 1. The overlapping structure of the two ends of the lattice beams 8 in the reinforcement component, and the bolt and nut assembly 11 connecting and fixing the lattice beams 8, effectively protects the upper part of retaining wall 1 and prevents slippage. The reinforcement wall 3 reinforces the side of the retaining wall 1 to prevent lateral movement of the retaining wall 1. The lattice beam 8 keeps the retaining wall 1 in a stable state, and the lattice beam 8 has significant advantages such as flexible arrangement and diverse forms. Construction workers can adjust the lattice beam 8 according to different retaining walls 1 to ensure that the lattice beam fits more closely with the slope.
[0028] Secondly, a stop block 5 is provided on one side of the reinforced wall 3. The stop block 5 is used to reinforce the reinforced wall 3 and prevent the reinforced wall 3 from moving laterally. This further reinforces the side of the retaining wall 1 and increases the stability of the retaining wall 1.
[0029] Secondly, a fixing frame 14 is provided at the lower end of the reinforced wall. Several second through holes 16 are evenly arranged inside the fixing frame 14. A fastening bolt 15 corresponding to the second through holes 16 is provided on the stop block 5. The fastening bolt 15 is used to fix the stop block 5 to the fixing frame 14. The stop block 5 can prevent the retaining wall 1 from moving laterally, and the fastening bolt 15 has good fixation, a simple structure, is easy to disassemble, and can be replaced if damaged.
[0030] Secondly, a drainage ditch 6 is provided at the upper end of the retaining block 5, and several drainage holes 4 are provided inside the reinforced wall 3, running through the entire reinforced wall 3. The drainage holes 4 are used to discharge rainwater from the lattice beam 8, and the drainage ditch 6 is used to collect the rainwater discharged from the drainage holes 4. On rainy days, rainwater will flow naturally downwards from the upper side of the lattice beam 8 and into the inner side of the drainage ditch 6 through the drainage holes 4. Aquatic plants can be planted inside the drainage ditch 6, collecting the rainwater. The aquatic plants utilize the collected rainwater for growth, thus achieving resource utilization and contributing to ecological construction. Furthermore, the drainage holes 4 are evenly distributed on the reinforced wall, which facilitates the even discharge of rainwater.
[0031] Secondly, the position of the drainage hole 4 is higher than that of the lattice beam 8, which is conducive to the collection of rainwater, allowing rainwater to enter the drainage ditch 6 through the drainage hole 4.
[0032] Secondly, a filler 7 is provided at both ends of the upper side of the concrete retaining wall 32 and between several lattice beams 8. The filler 7 is used to improve the sealing between the concrete retaining wall 32 and several lattice beams 8.
[0033] Secondly, the filler 7 contains sealant, which has the functions of preventing leakage and waterproofing, and can better ensure the sealing between the concrete retaining wall 32 and the lattice beam 8, increase the service life of the reinforcement components, and reduce economic costs.
[0034] Secondly, a washer 12 is inserted at the upper end of the bolt and nut assembly 11. The washer 12 can enhance the sealing between the lattice beam 8 and the bolt and nut assembly 11, ensuring the stability of the connection between the lattice beam 8 and the bolt and nut assembly 11, and better fixing the lattice beam 8 together.
[0035] Secondly, a protective cover 9 is fixed to the gasket 12, covering the upper end of the bolt and nut assembly 11. The protective cover 9 is used to protect the bolt and nut assembly 11. The gasket 12 fits snugly against the gap of the lattice beam 8, which to a certain extent prevents rainwater erosion. The protective cover 9 covers the exposed part of the bolt and nut assembly 11, which can effectively protect the bolt and nut assembly 11, prevent damage to the bolt and nut assembly 11, reduce economic expenditure, extend the service life of the bolt and nut assembly 11, and increase the practicality of the reinforced structure.
[0036] In the embodiments of this utility model, the exposed part of the bolt and nut assembly 11 is protected by setting a protective cover 9. In specific applications, the bolt and nut assembly 11 can be protected by organic metal coating or other methods according to the actual situation. It is not limited to the protection method described in the example above. As long as the bolt and nut assembly 11 is protected, it is sufficient.
[0037] Secondly, the metal plate 13 is a corrosion-resistant metal plate. The traditional metal plate 13 undergoes anti-corrosion treatment, which can increase the stability of the metal plate 13 and reduce the corrosion of the metal plate 13 by rainwater.
[0038] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the gravity retaining wall reinforcement structure provided by this utility model first completes the necessary foundation excavation, then covers the retaining wall 1 in sequence, and then arranges the metal plate 13 and the concrete reinforcement wall 2 vertically and pours them for fixation. Subsequently, multiple lattice beams 8 are taken out and interlocked with each other. At the same time, the gaskets 12 are attached between two lattice beams 8 and the upper side is fixed by the bolt and nut assembly 11, which can effectively protect the surface of the retaining wall 1 and the concrete retaining wall 2 and prevent slippage. The gaps between the lattice beams 8 at both ends of the upper side of the concrete retaining wall 32 are filled with filler 7 to form a flat state, making the whole more complete. At the same time, the filler 7 can effectively seal the gaps between the lattice beams 8 and the concrete retaining wall 2. The right side of the stop block 5 is attached to the lower left side of the reinforcement wall 3, and the fastening bolt 15 is taken out, inserted into the stop block 5, and fixed through the second through hole 15. In rainy weather, rainwater will flow naturally downward from the upper side of the lattice beams 8 and leave through the drainage hole 4 into the inner side of the drainage ditch 6.
[0039] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
