Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building construction technology, specifically a waterproof artistic retaining wall. Background Technology
[0002] Retaining walls, as a common engineering facility, are widely used in road, railway, bridge, and water conservancy projects, primarily to prevent soil erosion and support the soil mass. However, traditional retaining walls often face problems during design and construction, such as poor soil stability, susceptibility to external forces, and insufficient aesthetics. This is especially true in construction sites with significant elevation differences, such as valleys and other complex terrains, where the safety and structural stability of retaining walls become critical issues.
[0003] With the development of engineering technology, modern retaining wall design tends to place greater emphasis on structural safety, environmental adaptability, and aesthetics. Waterproofing is also an essential consideration, especially when there is potential water flow or underground current between the high soil layer and the low soil layer. Traditional retaining wall structures are unable to effectively prevent water infiltration, which may lead to soil erosion or disasters such as landslides and mudslides.
[0004] Therefore, how to design a retaining wall that can provide strong support between the high soil layer and the low soil layer and effectively isolate water flow has become an urgent problem to be solved in the engineering field. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings in the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof artistic retaining wall that, by combining structural safety, waterproof function and aesthetic design, can effectively prevent geological disasters such as landslides and mudslides, and is suitable for complex terrain and high soil layer environments.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to achieve the above-mentioned objectives is as follows: a waterproof artistic retaining wall, comprising a foundation raft slab, a concrete wall, a diagonal bracing structure, and tie rods. The foundation raft slab is cast on a hard stratum, and the concrete wall is cast on the foundation raft slab, with a high soil layer and a low soil layer on each side of the concrete wall. The diagonal bracing structure is cast as a unified whole with the foundation raft slab and the concrete wall. The diagonal bracing structure is arranged on one side of the low soil layer and buried below the low soil layer. The fixed section of the tie rod is fixed to the concrete wall, and the extended section of the tie rod is inclined downward and buried in the high soil layer. The fixed section of the tie rod is fixedly connected to a fastener arranged on one side of the low soil layer.
[0007] It also includes a waterproof layer and decorative panels. The waterproof layer is arranged between the concrete wall and the high soil layer, and the decorative panels are fixed to the concrete wall by the fasteners and arranged on one side of the bottom soil layer.
[0008] Based on the above technical solutions, in order to further improve the structural strength of concrete walls and ensure their ability to bear the gravity load on the side of the high soil layer, the following technical solutions are provided.
[0009] The width of the foundation raft slab is not less than 5 times the thickness of the concrete wall, and the high soil layer and the low soil layer are both arranged on the side of the concrete wall that is close to the foundation raft slab.
[0010] Based on the above technical solutions, in order to ensure that the tie rods can apply stable tensile force to the concrete wall and cooperate with the diagonal bracing structure to ensure that the concrete wall can withstand strong stress, the following technical solutions are provided.
[0011] The fixed section of the tie rod is arranged horizontally and cast into the concrete wall. The fixed section of the tie rod is not lower than the diagonal bracing structure. The angle between the extension section of the tie rod and the horizontal plane is set in the range of 30 to 60°.
[0012] Based on the above technical solutions, in order to ensure that the fasteners can improve the stability of the tie rod fixing section and effectively position the decorative panels, the following technical solutions are provided.
[0013] The fastener includes an outer positioning plate, an inner positioning plate, and a positioning strip fixed between the outer positioning plate and the inner positioning plate. The inner positioning plate is cast into the concrete wall, the outer positioning plate is arranged on the outer surface of the decorative panel, and the positioning strip is nested and fastened to the corner of the decorative panel.
[0014] Based on the above technical solutions, the following technical solutions are provided to ensure that decorative panels can be stably installed on concrete walls and to ensure a tight connection between the decorative panels and the concrete walls.
[0015] The inner side of the decorative panel is fixedly bonded to the concrete wall with adhesive, and the gaps between adjacent decorative panels are also filled with adhesive.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. Enhanced structural stability: By uniformly casting the foundation raft slab, concrete walls, and diagonal bracing structure into a single unit, the retaining wall's resistance to lateral sliding, overturning, and compression can be effectively improved, making it particularly suitable for complex terrains with varying elevations. The arrangement of the diagonal bracing structure and tie rods strengthens the connection between the wall and the ground, increasing overall stability and effectively preventing soil slippage and collapse.
[0018] 2. Effective waterproofing: By installing a waterproof layer, water flow is effectively isolated between the concrete wall and the high soil layer, preventing moisture from penetrating into the soil and helping to reduce soil erosion and water damage to the wall. Furthermore, the tie-bar system also reinforces the wall and reduces water penetration, ensuring structural safety in humid environments.
[0019] 3. Combining aesthetics and functionality, the decorative panels not only provide high functionality but also meet visual aesthetic requirements, making them suitable for engineering projects that require landscape design considerations. The decorative panels are fixed to the concrete wall with clips, making installation simple and allowing them to blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment.
[0020] In summary, this invention provides a novel waterproof artistic retaining wall by combining structural safety, waterproof function, and aesthetic design. It is suitable for complex terrain and high soil layer environments, and can effectively prevent geological disasters such as landslides and mudslides, while improving the overall aesthetics and sustainability of engineering projects.

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 A waterproof artistic retaining wall includes a foundation raft slab 1, a concrete wall 2, a diagonal bracing structure 3, and tie rods 4. The foundation raft slab 1 is poured on a hard soil layer 51, and the concrete wall 2 is poured on the foundation raft slab 1. The two sides of the concrete wall 2 are a high soil layer 52 and a low soil layer 53, respectively. The diagonal bracing structure 3 is poured as a unified whole with the foundation raft slab 1 and the concrete wall 2. The diagonal bracing structure 3 is arranged on one side of the low soil layer 53 and buried under the low soil layer 53. The fixed section 41 of the tie rod 4 is fixed to the concrete wall 2, and the extension section 42 of the tie rod 4 is inclined downward and buried in the high soil layer 52. The fixed section 41 of the tie rod 4 is fixed with a fastener 6 arranged on one side of the low soil layer 53.
[0029] It also includes a waterproof layer 7 and a decorative panel 8. The waterproof layer 7 is arranged between the concrete wall 2 and the high soil layer 52. The decorative panel 8 is fixed to the concrete wall 2 by a fastener 6 and arranged on one side of the bottom soil layer 53.
[0030] The waterproof artistic retaining wall provided in this solution can be used in construction sites with terrain differences, such as road construction in valleys. With the help of the retaining wall provided in this solution, the soil on both sides of the road can be reinforced to prevent landslides and mudslides, while ensuring aesthetics.
[0031] The hard subbase is a rock layer or an artificially compacted foundation layer. The foundation raft slab 1, concrete wall 2, and diagonal bracing structure 3 are all uniformly cast with reinforced concrete. Due to the height difference between the high soil layer 52 and the bottom soil layer 53, during the application stage, the high soil layer 52 will apply a gravity load to the bottom soil layer 53. When the force acts on the concrete wall 2, it is presented as a thrust towards the bottom soil layer 53. The diagonal bracing structure 3 set on the bottom soil layer 53 side can effectively bear the thrust and transfer it downward to ensure the structural stability of the concrete wall 2. The extension section 42 of the tie rod 4 extends downward at an inclination into the high soil layer 52. The friction force applied to it by the high soil layer 52 can effectively tighten the concrete wall 2, further ensuring the structural stability of the concrete wall 2.
[0032] Adding a waterproof layer 7 to the side of the high soil layer 52 of the concrete wall 2 can effectively prevent water flow or underground flow in the high soil layer 52 from flowing through the concrete wall 2 to the side of the bottom soil layer 53, thereby ensuring the stability of the building or road on the side of the bottom soil layer 53 and effectively preventing landslides and debris flows.
[0033] The diagonal bracing structure 3 is buried below the subsoil layer 53, which can effectively hide it to improve the neatness and aesthetics of the concrete wall 2 on the subsoil layer 53 side. On this side, decorative panels 8 are installed by fasteners 6. The outer surface of the decorative panels 8 can be aesthetically processed to present specific patterns, thereby increasing the aesthetics and artistic feel of the subsoil layer 53 side.
[0034] To further improve the structural strength of the concrete wall 2 and ensure its ability to bear the gravity load on one side of the high soil layer 52, the following technical solution is provided.
[0035] The width of the foundation raft 1 is not less than 5 times the thickness of the concrete wall 2. The high soil layer 52 and the low soil layer 53 are both arranged on the side of the concrete wall 2 that is close to the foundation raft 1.
[0036] The dimensional requirements for the width of the foundation raft slab 1 and the thickness of the concrete wall 2 ensure that the concrete wall 2 and the diagonal bracing structure 3 are stably poured on the foundation raft slab 1, and that the high soil layer 52 and the low soil layer 53 are both pressed on the foundation raft slab 1, and that the gravity load on the foundation raft slab 1 support is not overturned, and that the concrete wall 2 poured on it as a unified whole is not overturned by the load on the high soil layer 52 side, thus ensuring the structural stability of the concrete wall 2.
[0037] To ensure that the tie rod 4 can apply a stable tensile force to the concrete wall 2 and cooperate with the diagonal bracing structure 3 to ensure that the concrete wall 2 can withstand strong stress, the following technical solution is provided.
[0038] The fixed section 41 of the tie rod 4 is arranged horizontally and cast into the concrete wall 2. The fixed section 41 of the tie rod 4 is not lower than the diagonal bracing structure 3. The angle between the extension section 42 of the tie rod 4 and the horizontal plane is set in the range of 30 to 60°.
[0039] The fixed section 41 of the tie bar 4 is arranged horizontally, which can ensure the structural stability when the tie bar 4 is combined with the concrete wall 2. The angle between the extension section 42 of the tie bar 4 and the horizontal plane is set in the range of 30 to 60°. Under the action of friction applied by the high soil layer 52, it can apply a tensile force in the direction of 30 to 60° to the concrete wall 2 to ensure the structural stability of the concrete wall 2.
[0040] To ensure that the fastener 6 can improve the stability of the fixing section 41 of the tie rod 4 and to ensure that the fastener 6 can effectively position the decorative panel 8, the following technical solution is provided.
[0041] The fastener 6 includes an outer positioning plate 61, an inner positioning plate 62, and a positioning strip 63 fixed between the outer positioning plate 61 and the inner positioning plate 62. The inner positioning plate 62 is cast into the concrete wall 2, the outer positioning plate 61 is arranged on the outer surface of the decorative panel 8, and the positioning strip 63 is nested and fastened to the corner of the decorative panel 8.
[0042] The inner positioning plate 62 ensures that the tie rod 4 is stably installed on the concrete wall 2, while the outer positioning plate 61 can effectively position the decorative panel 8. The positioning strip 63 includes two structures: cross and T. The T-shaped structure is located at the top and bottom tie rod 4, and the cross structure is located at the tie rod 4 of each middle layer. With the help of the positioning strip 63 and the outer positioning plate 61, each decorative panel 8 can be accurately positioned.
[0043] The inner positioning plate 62 is usually circular, which can effectively increase its contact area with the concrete wall 2, while the outer positioning plate 61 is usually diamond-shaped. While ensuring effective positioning of the corner of the decorative panel 8, it can minimize obstruction of the decorative panel 8, so as to ensure its integrity and aesthetics.
[0044] To ensure the stable installation of the decorative panel 8 on the concrete wall 2 and to guarantee the tight connection between the decorative panel 8 and the concrete wall 2, the following technical solutions are provided.
[0045] The inner side of the decorative panel 8 is fixedly bonded to the concrete wall 2 with adhesive, and the gaps between adjacent decorative panels are also filled with adhesive.
[0046] The decorative panels 8 are bonded together using adhesive and can be stably installed on the surface of the concrete wall 2, ensuring the stability of the installation of the decorative panels 8.
