Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of highway construction technology, and more specifically, to a sloping excavation step splicing structure for highway reconstruction and expansion. Background Technology
[0002] In highway reconstruction and expansion projects, the inclined excavation and step splicing structure is mainly used to solve the connection problem between the old and new pavements during road reconstruction and expansion. This structural form is often used when widening, raising, or reconstructing existing roads, involving the junction of the pavement layer and the roadbed. It solves the problem of earthwork excavation and pavement splicing through inclined steps, ensuring a smooth transition between the new and existing pavements while meeting the stability and usage requirements of the project.
[0003] Design principles and purpose of inclined excavation step splicing structure
[0004] Earthwork excavation: In highway reconstruction and expansion projects, inclined excavation is often required to widen the road surface or adjust the roadbed structure. Inclined excavation usually refers to excavating one side of the road surface at a certain slope to maintain a reasonable slope and connect with the old road surface, so as to achieve a smooth transition between the road surface and the roadbed.
[0005] Stepped excavation helps maintain slope stability during the excavation process, preventing excessive loosening or soil slippage.
[0006] In highway reconstruction and expansion, the inclined excavation and stepped splicing structure is a highly effective transitional design. It ensures a smooth connection between the old and new road surfaces, reducing settlement or cracking issues caused by height differences. Through proper design and construction, it can effectively improve road stability and safety, especially in situations requiring large-scale earthwork excavation and road splicing, where the stepped splicing structure demonstrates its irreplaceable advantages.
[0007] The prior art publication CN220183729U provides a sloping excavation step splicing structure for highway reconstruction and expansion. This device uses sloping excavation steps to overlap the old and new pavement structures in highway reconstruction and expansion projects. Compared with the traditional vertical excavation step overlap, it increases the area of the lateral contact surface. At the same time, the right angle and obtuse angle make it easier for the mixture to be filled and compacted evenly, reducing the need for manual construction. On the other hand, the change in angle makes it easier to compact the joint, ensuring the compaction degree of the joint of the newly paved structure. This can better improve the integrity and continuity of the splicing part and make the stress distribution more uniform.
[0008] While the aforementioned existing technical solutions can achieve the relevant beneficial effects through their structure, they still have the following drawbacks: When the device is in use, the lack of sufficient tensile strength between the old and new road surfaces can lead to uneven stress distribution at the joint under traffic loads, especially under high-frequency traffic or heavy traffic. The lack of sufficient tensile strength at the connection between the old and new road surfaces may cause cracking or separation at the joint, affecting the long-term stability and service life of the road surface.
[0009] In view of this, we propose a diagonal excavation step splicing structure for highway reconstruction and expansion. Utility Model Content
