Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of building waterproofing technology, specifically relating to an underwater anti-corrosion structure for a steel structure hinged column base. Background Technology
[0002] Steel structures are increasingly widely used in the construction industry due to their advantages such as light weight, high strength, good seismic and impact resistance, and fast construction speed. They have also become one of the best choices for large-span and complex-shaped structures. However, because steel materials have poor corrosion resistance, corrosion protection schemes should be comprehensively considered based on the importance of the building and environmental corrosion conditions during steel structure design. The "Steel Structure Design Standard" GB50017-2017 requires that steel structure column base joints be wrapped with low-strength plain concrete, and the wrapping height should be no less than 150mm above the outdoor ground level. For conventional rigid steel column bases, column base deformation is small, and cracking of the plain concrete is not easily caused. However, for hinged column bases, especially when the building design involves underwater column bases, when the structural system requires the column base joints to rotate to release bending moments, the rotation of the joints can cause cracking of the plain concrete. Using only conventional column base wrapping methods, water can seep into the interior through concrete cracks and corrode the steel structure columns and joints, affecting the durability of the structure. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a corrosion protection method for underwater hinged steel structure column bases to overcome the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an underwater anti-corrosion structure for steel structure hinged column bases to solve the existing problems.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] An underwater anti-corrosion structure for a steel hinged column base includes a steel column and an embedded part. The embedded part is embedded in the center of the top of the column base foundation. An end plate is provided at the bottom of the steel column. An outer sleeve is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of the end plate. An inner sleeve is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the embedded part. The outer sleeve and the inner sleeve have equally spaced mounting holes on opposite sides along their length. The inner sleeve is inserted into the outer sleeve and connected by stainless steel bolts passing through the corresponding two sets of mounting holes. The diameter of the stainless steel bolts is smaller than the diameter of the mounting holes.
[0006] A corrosion-resistant steel sleeve is welded between the steel column and the embedded part. The steel column is covered with a ring of waterproof concrete, which extends to the top of the column base. The waterproof concrete is covered with a ring of waterproof membrane, which extends to the ground. A fixing structure is provided on the top of the waterproof concrete for fastening.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mounting holes of the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve are respectively vertically arranged elongated holes and round holes. Adjusting pads are fitted on both ends of the stainless steel bolt, and the opening in the middle of the adjusting pad is also the round hole. The outer sleeve is adjusted to be perpendicular to the inner sleeve through the elongated holes, and the outer sleeve is fixed to be perpendicular to the inner sleeve by welding to the adjusting pads.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a plurality of reinforcing plates are evenly arranged between the bottom of the end plate and the four sides of the outer sleeve.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the fixing structure includes an edge-retaining aluminum clamp, which is sleeved on the outside of the steel column and located around the top of the waterproof concrete. The edge-retaining aluminum clamp securely connects the top edge of the waterproof concrete to the steel column by connecting screws.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the interior of the edge-sealing aluminum clamp is filled with asphalt sealant.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the waterproof concrete is P6 impermeable waterproof concrete, and the waterproof concrete is provided with a wire mesh to prevent cracking. The height of the waterproof concrete is 150mm above the ground or water surface.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. The anti-corrosion steel sleeve and embedded parts of the column base, and the column welded together, prevent water vapor from entering the joint area. The hinged joint can rotate inside the anti-corrosion steel sleeve. The steel sleeve wall is relatively thin and can rotate the joint through deformation. It plays a role in isolation and anti-corrosion while ensuring the stress requirements of the joint structure, which is quite innovative.
[0016] 2. The outer side of the hinged column base is wrapped with P6 impermeable and waterproof concrete and steel wire mesh. The outer side of the concrete is wrapped with waterproof membrane and continuously constructed with the civil engineering waterproof membrane to form a seal. This can effectively isolate water vapor from corroding the steel column, improve the structural durability and safety, and has certain advantages.

[0034] Specifically, in order to overcome the shortcomings of existing products, this utility model proposes a method for corrosion protection of underwater hinged column bases for steel structures.
[0035] This anti-corrosion joint method mainly consists of the following components:
[0036] (1) Steel column 1, end plate 4.
[0037] (2) The column base connection node consists of: outer sleeve 5, inner sleeve 8, stainless steel bolt 7, and error adjustment pad 6 and reinforcing plate 9.
[0038] (3) Bottom embedded part 10.
[0039] (4) Two anti-corrosion steel sleeves 3 are used on both sides of the hinged column base to isolate the node from the outside.
[0040] (5) All steel components of the column base are galvanized for corrosion protection. In the immersion environment, the outer surface of the steel components is painted with epoxy resin paint for secondary corrosion protection.
[0041] (6) The outer side of the column base is wrapped with P6 waterproof concrete 2, and steel wire mesh is installed inside the concrete to prevent cracking; the height of the waterproof concrete 2 is 150mm higher than the ground or water surface.
[0042] (7) P6 waterproof concrete 2 is wrapped with continuous waterproof membrane 11 on the outside. The edge of the column base waterproof membrane 11 and the civil engineering waterproof membrane 11 are continuously constructed to form a seal.
[0043] (8) The top of the outer concrete is fastened with aluminum clamps 13 and fixed with connecting screws 14;
[0044] (9) The metal hoop is sealed with asphalt sealant 12 inside.
[0045] The outer sleeve 5 is welded to the end plate 4 of the steel column 1, and the inner sleeve 8 is welded to the embedded part 10.

[0046] The anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3 has a relatively thin wall thickness. Two sleeves are used on both sides of the column base node to cover the connection node and isolate it from the outside. The anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3, the embedded part 10, and the column are welded together to prevent water vapor from entering the node area. The connection node can rotate slightly inside the anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3. The anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3 has a relatively thin wall thickness and can rotate the connection node through deformation, so as to play a role in corrosion protection while ensuring that the node structure is under stress. The slight rotation of the steel column 1 is achieved through the clearance fit between the elongated hole, the round hole and the stainless steel bolt 7.
[0047] With the above structural design, this technology has the following advantages:
[0048] 1. The anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3 and the embedded part 10 of the column base are welded to prevent water vapor from entering the node area. The hinged node can rotate inside the anti-corrosion steel sleeve 3. The steel sleeve has a relatively thin wall thickness and can rotate the node through deformation. It plays a role in isolation and anti-corrosion while ensuring the stress requirements of the node structure, which is innovative.
[0049] 2. The outer side of the hinged column base is wrapped with P6 waterproof concrete 2 and steel wire mesh. The outer side of the concrete is wrapped with waterproof membrane 11 and continuously constructed with the civil engineering waterproof membrane 11 to form a seal. This can effectively isolate water vapor from corroding the steel column, improve the structural durability and safety, and has certain advantages.
[0050] 3. The top of the outer concrete is secured with aluminum hoops 13 and fixed with connecting screws 14. The metal hoops act as a formwork and the interior is sealed with asphalt sealant 12, which has certain advantages.
