Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of prefabricated building components, and more specifically to the field of a novel hollow column technology. Background Technology

[0002] In frame structures, with the increase in assembly rate, precast columns are used for construction to meet the requirements of assembly rate. Currently, conventional precast columns are solid concrete columns, connected on-site by grouting with sleeves. Solid concrete precast columns have a large self-weight, which has a significant impact on the selection of tower cranes and construction costs. Therefore, research on weight reduction of precast columns is of great significance for reducing on-site construction costs.

[0003] Currently, the most widely used precast column weight reduction technologies on the market include the "SPCS hollow column" developed by Sany Construction and the "EMC precast hollow column" developed by China Academy of Building Research.

[0004] EMC precast hollow columns utilize pre-embedded metal pipes to form a composite column system with vertical holes. The EMC precast hollow columns only have vertical structural steel bars, column stirrups, and tie bars to form a steel cage. Large-diameter continuous longitudinal bars are inserted into the cavity of the precast column, and the upper and lower layers of large-diameter continuous longitudinal bars are mechanically connected, such as by straight threads. The weight reduction of EMC precast hollow columns is mainly achieved through the pre-reserved continuous channels within the precast column.

[0005] SPCS hollow columns are precast hollow columns made by integrally constructing a steel reinforcement cage and concrete. The hollow column component and the subsequent cast-in-place concrete are integrated through necessary structural measures to jointly bear vertical and horizontal loads. Weight reduction is primarily achieved through the hollow central section, connected by specialized steel reinforcement connectors.

[0006] EMC precast hollow columns and SPCS cavity columns require specially designed connection components, and assembly is time-consuming and labor-intensive. The traditional sleeve grouting connection method for solid concrete precast columns is not applicable. Utility Model Content

[0019] In one embodiment, the wall thickness of the prefabricated hollow column portion is ≥100mm.

[0020] In one embodiment, the sidewall of the prefabricated hollow column portion is provided with an exhaust port communicating with the cavity.

[0021] In one embodiment, the reinforcing cage uses HRB400 grade steel bars, and the concrete grade is C40.

[0022] In one embodiment, the grouting sleeve is a Hongqi semi-grouting sleeve.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a novel precast hollow column, which is integrally constructed from a precast steel cage and concrete. The lower 580mm section is a precast solid column 1, and the upper section is a precast hollow column 2. The upper precast hollow column and the post-cast concrete are integrated through necessary structural measures to jointly bear vertical and horizontal loads. The upper precast hollow column has a wall thickness ≥100mm, and the upper and lower precast columns are connected by sleeve grouting. Based on the verification points identified in the design, production, hoisting, installation, and pouring stages, a verification plan was developed and relevant verifications were conducted, providing valuable data for further research on the novel precast hollow column.

[0056] The new precast hollow column has a cross-sectional size of 1000mm×1000mm×3260mm, of which the 580mm range from the bottom of the grouting sleeve 6 is solid, the length of the weight-reducing hollow part is 2680mm, and the wall thickness is 100mm.

[0058] Table 1. Concrete Formula for Hollow Columns

[0059]

[0060] Verification method: C40 concrete will be prepared in the laboratory with a slump tentatively set at 160mm ± 20mm, and measurements will be recorded on-site. The vibration effect of the concrete will be observed on-site during pouring. If the workability of the concrete does not meet the vibration requirements, an appropriate water-reducing agent will be added to the concrete in the mixer truck to increase the slump. Adjustments will be made, and the slump value of the adjusted concrete will still need to be measured and recorded to check the vibration effect.

[0061] This embodiment is compared with EMC precast hollow columns and SPCS cavity columns:

[0062] EMC precast hollow columns reduce weight by 20% to 40%, requiring modifications to the reinforcement details in the existing construction drawings.

[0063] SPCS hollow columns reduce weight by more than 50% and do not require modification of existing reinforcement drawings; however, the use of centrifugal drilling for these precast columns and the use of flip-plate equipment for the precast walls restricts the selection of component manufacturers and affects procurement and supply; and high precision is required for rebar positioning.

[0064] The precast hollow column disclosed in this embodiment reduces weight by more than 50%; it does not require modification of existing reinforcement drawings; the grouting sleeve 6 connection requires high precision; precast column processing requires no special equipment, and the precast column uses airbags to form the cavity 3; no separate formwork is needed, and tower crane time is short. However, it has many reinforcing bars with small tolerances, making on-site alignment difficult to ensure workers connect each column individually. In summary, the overall performance of the precast hollow column in this embodiment is superior to that of EMC precast hollow columns and SPCS cavity columns.
