Research On Vibration Reduction Measures Of Short‐Hole Blasting For Pile Group Foundation Of Bridge, Long Lidun, Ji Zhongyan, Li Shaofang, Zhou Xu

Journal of China & Foreign Highway

In the construction of pile hole blasting of group pile foundation of bridges, due to the small clear distance between piles, the blasting vibration will have adverse effects on the wall protection of adjacent pile holes and the poured pile core concrete. Measures thus should be taken to control the seismic wave vibration velocity. In view of the inapplicability of conventional blasting vibration reduction measures such as reducing charge and setting isolation ditch in the construction of pile group foundation of the bridge, this paper proposed vibration reduction measures such as setting isolation holes and using air bags to replace …

Analysis Of Influence Parameters Of Steel Corrugated Plate‐Concrete Composite Arch Culvert, Zhang Haijun

Journal of China & Foreign Highway

In order to explore the parameter effect of a composite arch culvert with corrugated steel plate and concrete, based on the engineering background of a composite arch culvert, the influence rules of four parameters, namely fill height, pipe diameter, wall thickness, and uneven settlement, on the stress and deformation of the arch culvert were analyzed based on the control variable method. The results show that the deformation and stress of the arch culvert are positively correlated with the fill height h and pipe diameter R. When h < 25 m, the deformation and stress increase linearly with the increase in the fill height, and when h > 25 m, the deformation and stress increase in a curve form. When R …

Experiment Research Of High Pressure Jet Grouting Pile On Ultra‐Shallow Buried Tunnel In Strong Weathered Stratum, Lu Liyang, Liu Huan, Li Pinpin

Journal of China & Foreign Highway

By taking the ultra-shallow buried construction of Xinwu Tunnel in Luoding–Xinyi Expressway in Guangdong Province as the engineering background, the key construction parameters and formation reinforcement effect of high-pressure rotary churning pile in ultra-shallow buried tunnel surrounding rock of fully weathered strata were compared. The results show that: ① slurry pressure, rotary churning speed, and lifting speed have obvious effects on the static load bearing capacity of a single pile. Under the same static load condition, greater slurry pressure indicates a lower cumulative settlement value of a single pile and a smaller increase in cumulative settlement value, and the change …

Study On Pavement Performance Of Waterborne Epoxy Emulsified Asphalt And Its Application In Micro‐Surface, Jiang Hai, Liu Dachang

Journal of China & Foreign Highway

In order to improve the pavement performance at micro-surface, waterborne epoxy resin was used to modify the emulsified asphalt, and the compatibility, microstructure, mechanical properties, rheological properties, and pavement performance of mixtures of the modified emulsified asphalt were studied. The storage stability test shows that the epoxy emulsion has good compatibility with emulsified asphalt. With the increase in waterborne epoxy resin content, the modified emulsified asphalt tends to form an epoxy resin-dominated skeleton structure. At the same time, with the increase in waterborne epoxy resin content, the adhesion and mechanical properties of emulsified asphalt and aggregate are significantly improved. At …

Additive Manufacturing Of Engineered Cementitious Composites With Ultra-High Tensile Ductility, Amir Bakhshi 2023 University of New Mexico

Additive Manufacturing Of Engineered Cementitious Composites With Ultra-High Tensile Ductility, Amir Bakhshi

Civil Engineering ETDs

One of the critical factors in the development of additive manufacturing in the construction industry is designing suitable materials for 3D printing applications. 3D concrete printing (3DCP) has gained significant attention due to the abundance and availability of concrete. However, concrete is a brittle material and, without proper reinforcement, cannot meet the requirements for structural purposes. Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC), known for high ductility, and strain-hardening with low fiber contents, can potentially eliminate the need for steel reinforcement in 3D printing without any need for manual placement of reinforcement. A set of systematic tests on ECC mix designs' fresh and …
