Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of construction technology for underpassing operational railways, and in particular to a structure for constructing a new river channel under the subgrade of an operational railway in a coastal soft soil area. It is mainly applied to the construction of a new river channel structure under the subgrade of a railway under conditions where railway operation is not interrupted and the surrounding environment is limited. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid construction of numerous municipal facilities in my country, especially the increasing number of new river channel projects in southern cities with their dense river networks, the issue of new river channels crossing existing railway subgrades is inevitable due to factors such as urban integration, land scarcity, and urban landscape planning. Excavation is necessary for river channels crossing railway subgrades, which inevitably disturbs the ground and causes deformation of the railway. This deformation will ultimately be reflected on the rail surface, affecting the safety of train operations, especially for operational railways with extremely high requirements for track deformation control.
[0003] This is the first time in Shanghai that a new river channel has been constructed to pass under an operating railway in a coastal soft soil area. The coastal soft soil area has extremely poor geology and abundant groundwater. At the same time, there are many buildings near the underpass point, which limits the construction space. The maximum depth of the foundation pit is about 9 meters. The existing operating railway has strict subgrade control standards, and the foundation pit area formed by the river excavation is large, which has a significant impact on the existing railway.
[0004] When constructing a new river channel that passes under an existing railway subgrade, two options are available. First, a cast-in-place frame bridge can be constructed, requiring the railway line to be cut off on-site before construction. However, this method would disrupt railway operations, resulting in significant losses for railway transport, especially for railways with special functions, making this option impractical. Second, the existing railway subgrade can be modified by altering the railway alignment, transforming it into a railway bridge. To ensure the clearance under the modified bridge meets the requirements of the new river channel, the longitudinal profile changes drastically, causing significant impact on the railway and requiring even greater investment. This also necessitates interrupting railway operations. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a structure for constructing new river channels under operating railway subgrades in coastal soft soil areas. Through the design of a jacking working pit and temporary beam support structure, it solves the technical challenge of rapidly and safely jacking multi-hole, large-volume box girder bodies within large-area deep foundation pits adjacent to existing operating railways in coastal soft soil areas under conditions of limited surrounding environment and land use. This achieves the goal of constructing new river channels under existing railway subgrades. The construction is convenient and economical.
[0006] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A structure for constructing a new river channel under an operational railway subgrade in a coastal soft soil area is characterized by: including a jacking working pit and a temporary beam support structure for temporarily supporting the operational railway, wherein a new frame bridge is prefabricated in the jacking working pit, the new frame bridge is prefabricated with different box girder sections, and an internal support structure is provided in the jacking working pit, the internal support structure including at least two systems, the two systems being switched according to the jacking conditions of different box girder sections.
[0007] The jacking working pit consists of working pit protective piles, backfill soil, working pit bottom slab, foundation pit retaining structure water-stop curtain, working pit anchor beam, and working pit back beam. The working pit protective piles surround the perimeter of the jacking working pit and are located around the working pit bottom slab. The foundation pit retaining structure water-stop curtain is set around the working pit protective piles. The backfill soil is set on one side behind the working pit protective piles. The working pit bottom slab is located at the bottom of the jacking working pit. The working pit anchor beam is set below the working pit bottom slab. The working pit back beam is set inside the working pit protective pile on the side adjacent to the backfill soil.
[0008] The protective piles for the working pit are formed by bored cast-in-place piles to create a closed area; the bottom slab of the working pit and the anchor beam of the working pit are made of reinforced concrete.
[0009] The internal support structure includes working pit grid columns, working pit grid column pile foundations, and working pit horizontal supports. The working pit grid column pile foundations are located inside the jacking working pit, the working pit grid columns are located on top of the working pit grid columns, and the working pit horizontal supports are located between the retaining structures of the jacking working pit.
[0010] The horizontal support of the working pit includes at least two horizontal supports arranged along the depth direction of the working pit. The horizontal supports are divided into longitudinal supports, transverse supports and diagonal braces.
[0011] The temporary beam support structure includes temporary beam piers, temporary beam strip foundation piles, temporary beam strip foundation jet grouting piles, temporary beam strip foundations, and temporary beams. The temporary beam strip foundations are set on the temporary beam strip foundation piles, the temporary piers are set on the side of the temporary beam strip foundation piles, and the temporary beams are supported between the temporary beam strip foundation piles or between the temporary beam strip foundation piles and the temporary beam piers.
[0012] The temporary support piers of the temporary beam are made of reinforced concrete; the strip foundation piles of the temporary beam are made of bored cast-in-place piles; the jet grouting piles of the strip foundation of the temporary beam are made of high-pressure jet grouting piles; the strip foundation of the temporary beam is made of reinforced concrete; and the temporary beam is made of steel.
[0013] A foundation treatment system for the new frame bridge is set up below the design and construction scope of the new frame bridge.
[0014] The advantages of this utility model are: 1) It has strong practicality and solves the technical problem of rapid and safe jacking of multi-hole large-volume box bodies in large-area deep foundation pits adjacent to existing operating railways in coastal soft soil areas under the constraints of surrounding environment and land use.
[0015] 2) A closed independent foundation pit + double-layer internal support + lattice column system is adopted as the jacking working pit to reduce the land space and ensure railway safety. At the same time, under the condition of erecting steel temporary beams, the lattice column conversion and internal support system conversion are carried out according to different box body jacking conditions to ensure the safe jacking of the box body to the bottom of the railway and achieve the purpose of building a new river channel.
[0016] 3) It is easy to construct, has little impact on the safety of existing railways, and has good results, providing new ideas and methods for new river channels to pass under the operating railway subgrade in coastal soft soil areas; it has high promotion and application value.

[0020] The construction location information in this embodiment includes the railway line centerline 1, the designed river mouth line 2, the land use control line 3, and the river channel centerline 4.
[0021] The jacking working pit Q1 is located on the south side of the railway and consists of working pit protective piles Q1-1 (composed of working pit back protective piles Q1-1-1, working pit adjacent to railway protective piles Q1-1-2, and working pit protective piles along the river direction Q1-1-3), working pit back fill Q1-2, working pit bottom slab Q1-3, working pit anchor beam Q1-4, working pit back beam Q1-5, working pit lattice column Q1-6, working pit lattice column pile foundation Q1-7, working pit first support Q1-8, working pit first support excavation face Q1-9, working pit second support Q1-10, working pit second support excavation face Q1-11, foundation treatment Q3, and pit retaining structure water-stop curtain Q4.
[0022] Protective piles Q1-1 for the working pit are installed around the bottom plate Q1-3 of the jacking working pit, forming a closed area using bored cast-in-place piles.
[0023] The backfill soil Q1-2 behind the working pit is set after the backfill protective pile Q1-1-1 behind the working pit, and together with the protective pile, it provides reaction force for the jacking frame used by each box body of the newly built frame bridge during jacking.

[0025] The anchor beam Q1-4 of the working pit is located below the bottom plate Q1-3 of the working pit. It is a reinforced concrete structure and is integrated with the bottom plate Q1-3 of the working pit to improve the overall load-bearing performance.
[0026] The back beam Q1-5 of the working pit is a reinforced concrete structure, which is set inside the back protective pile Q1-1-1 of the working pit adjacent to the back fill Q1-2 of the working pit.
[0027] The working pit lattice column Q1-6 is a steel structure.

[0046] Step 4: Excavate the jacking working pit Q1 to the bottom, reinforce the railway line, precast the new frame bridge Q5 and Q7, and jack up the new frame bridge Q5 and Q7: Excavate the jacking working pit Q1 to the bottom elevation → pour the working pit bottom slab Q1-3, the working pit anchor beam Q1-4 and the working pit back beam Q1-5 → erect the D16m temporary beam Q13, construct the temporary beam strip foundation Q12 under the temporary beam strip foundation jet grouting pile Q11 → pour the temporary beam strip foundation Q12 and the temporary beam temporary support Q9 → erect D24 The temporary beam Q14 is placed on the strip foundation Q12, and the D16m temporary beam Q13 is erected as a support beam → Construction of the new frame bridge Q5 and the new frame bridge Q7 under the new frame bridge foundation treatment body Q15 (high pressure jet grouting pile) → After the bottom plate Q1-3 of the working pit and the anchor beam Q1-4 of the working pit reach 100% of the design strength, the second support Q1-10 of the working pit is removed → The new frame bridge Q5 and the new frame bridge Q7 are jacked into the working pit → The new frame bridge Q5 and the new frame bridge Q7 are jacked into the design position.
[0047] Step 5: Conversion of the support system within the jacking working pit Q1; prefabrication of the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8; jacking of the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8: construction of the lattice columns Q1-6 corresponding to the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8, fixing the top of each lattice column to the first support Q1-8 of the working pit → removal of the lattice columns constructed in the previous steps → replacement of the box girder (D16m girder Q13, D24m girder Q14) positions → construction of the foundation treatment body Q15 (high-pressure jet grouting piles) for the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8 under the railway → prefabrication of the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8 within the jacking working pit Q1 → jacking of the new frame bridges Q6 and Q8 to the designed positions → removal of each girder (D16m girder Q13, D24m girder Q14), restoring the railway traffic conditions on the jacking section.
