Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building formwork technology, and in particular to a structural extension structure for square steel pipe keel supporting large-span beam and slab formwork. Background Technology
[0002] In formwork support systems for building construction, square steel tubes (rectangular tubes) are commonly used as the main joists to transfer loads from concrete beams and slabs, formwork, and secondary joists. However, standard square steel tubes are typically 6m in length, requiring overlapping for large-span beams and slabs. To ensure the effective overlap length of the main joists, traditional methods often involve overlapping by at least one span (the span of the formwork support) to guarantee the safety of the formwork support system.
[0003] This process reduces the actual utilization rate of square steel pipes, which is not conducive to project cost control. Moreover, short steel pipes are more susceptible to disturbance. In areas where the construction live load varies greatly, the actual spacing of the main keel of the square steel pipe often does not match the calculation in the scheme, affecting the beam and slab forming quality, and may even cause local collapse of the formwork support system. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a large-span beam and slab formwork support square steel pipe keel extension structure.
[0005] A structural extension structure for square steel pipe keel supporting large-span beam and slab formwork includes a first square steel pipe keel, a second square steel pipe keel, and connectors. Along the length of the large-span beam and slab, the first and second square steel pipe keels are fixedly connected by the connectors. The first square steel pipe keel has a first threaded through hole, and the second square steel pipe keel has a second threaded through hole. The connector is a U-shaped groove, with two pairs of positioning holes symmetrically positioned at both ends of the two wings of the U-shaped groove. The two pairs of positioning holes include a first pair of positioning holes and a second pair of positioning holes. The first square steel pipe keel is inserted into the U-shaped groove from one end, with the first threaded hole aligned with the first pair of positioning holes. The second square steel pipe keel is inserted into the U-shaped groove from the other end, with the second threaded hole aligned with the second positioning hole. A first fastening bolt passes through the first threaded hole and is fixedly connected to one end of the U-shaped groove via the first pair of positioning holes. A second fastening bolt passes through the second threaded hole and is fixedly connected to the other end of the U-shaped groove via the second pair of positioning holes.
[0006] Furthermore, the U-shaped groove is made of bent steel plate, and the two pairs of positioning holes are elliptical elongated holes.
[0007] Furthermore, the length of the U-shaped groove is 400-600mm, and the length of the elliptical elongated hole is 130-150mm.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, this utility model enables the square steel pipe keel in the formwork support to be connected and lengthened through the U-shaped groove connector, which improves the utilization rate of the square steel pipe keel and is conducive to project cost management; and by connecting and lengthening the square steel pipe keel, the integrity of the formwork support system is enhanced and the forming quality of the concrete structure is improved.

[0017] A type of square steel pipe keel splicing structure for large-span beam and slab formwork support, such as... Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the structure includes a first square steel pipe keel 2, a second square steel pipe keel 3, and connectors. Along the length of the large-span beam, the first square steel pipe keel 2 and the second square steel pipe keel 3 are fixedly connected by connectors. The first square steel pipe keel 2 is provided with a first threaded through hole 21, and the second square steel pipe keel 3 is provided with a second threaded through hole. The connector is a U-shaped groove 1. Two pairs of positioning holes are symmetrically positioned at both ends of the two wings of the U-shaped groove 1. The two pairs of positioning holes include a first pair of positioning holes 11 and a second pair of positioning holes 12. The first square steel pipe... The keel 2 is inserted into the U-shaped groove 1 from one end, with the first threaded through hole 21 aligned with the first pair of positioning holes 11. The second square steel pipe keel 3 is inserted into the U-shaped groove 1 from the other end, with the second threaded through hole aligned with the second positioning hole 12. The first fastening screw 13 passes through the first threaded hole and is fixedly connected to one end of the first square steel pipe keel 2 and the U-shaped groove 11. The second fastening bolt 14 passes through the second threaded through hole and is fixedly connected to the other end of the second square steel pipe keel 3 and the U-shaped groove 12.
[0018] In large-span beam and slab formwork support systems, due to the great length of the beams and slabs, it is difficult to find square steel pipes of equal length to serve as the keel in the formwork support system, matching the length of the beams and slabs. Therefore, to ensure the effective overlap length of the main square steel pipe keel, traditional processes often overlap at least one span (the span of the formwork support) to ensure the safety of the formwork support system. However, this existing method of overlapping square steel pipe keels reduces the actual utilization rate of square steel pipes and increases production costs. Furthermore, the different overlap positions of multiple square steel pipe keels will cause the uniform spacing between them to become uneven. That is, due to the difference in the upper and lower positions of the overlapping square steel pipe keels, it is easy to produce narrow and wide spacing, rather than uniformly spaced multiple overlapping square steel pipe keels; among the two square steel pipe keels with overlapping lengths, the shorter square steel pipe keel is more easily disturbed. Therefore, in areas with large variations in construction load, both the shorter steel pipe keel and the uneven spacing may cause local collapse of the formwork support. Therefore, the use of U-shaped groove 1 connectors enables the butt jointing of square steel pipe keels, rather than overlapping, thereby improving the utilization rate of square steel pipe keels and reducing production costs. Furthermore, using U-shaped groove 1 connectors to connect two square steel pipe keels avoids uneven spacing between multiple square steel pipe keels, enhancing the integrity of the formwork support system, improving the forming quality of the concrete structure, and enhancing the overall construction quality of the project.
[0019] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the U-shaped groove 1 is made of bent steel plate, and both the first pair of positioning holes 11 and the second pair of positioning holes 12 are elliptical elongated holes. The first pair of positioning holes 11 and the second pair of positioning holes 12 are elliptical elongated holes to accommodate the difference between the designed length of the square steel pipe keel and the actual length of the square steel pipe keel during construction.
[0020] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the length of the U-shaped groove 1 is 400-600mm, and the length of the elliptical elongated hole is 130-150mm. Based on multiple U-shaped groove butt joint tests between the first square steel pipe keel 2 and the second square steel pipe keel 3, it was found that a U-shaped groove length of 400-600mm reasonably enhances the butt joint strength between the first square steel pipe keel 2 and the second square steel pipe keel 3. The selection of the elliptical elongated hole length range is to accommodate the difference between the designed length of the square steel pipe keel in the template support system and the required length of the square steel pipe keel in the actual project.
[0021] It should be stated that the above-described specific embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, equivalent substitutions, and variations can be made to this utility model. However, such variations, as long as they do not depart from the spirit of this utility model, should be within the protection scope of this utility model. Furthermore, some terminology used in this application specification and claims is not limiting, but merely for ease of description.
