Abstract

An alpine safety barrier consists of an upright net at that is presented transverse to the anticipated direction from which falling objects may arrive. The net is suspended between a series of upright posts in-line. The posts are in turn retained by a horizontal array of equidistantly spaced cables (7) that converge after the outer posts into a ground anchorage point (8). The post upper end are linked by cable (6) to anchorage points (9) uphill.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine unterstützende Energieabsorbierungsstruktur für flexible Schutzbauten gegen Steinschlag, Holzschlag, Lawinen oder Ähnliches nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a supporting energy absorbing structure for flexible protective structures against stone chipping, felling, avalanches or the like according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine derartige Energieabsorbierungsstruktur ist aus der US-A-5,299,781 bekannt.Such an energy absorbing structure is known from US-A-5,299,781 known.

Gegenüber dieser bekannten Energieabsorbierungsstruktur ist es technische Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen effizienten Energieabbau von Schutzverbauungen gegen Steinschlag, Holzschlag, Lawinen oder Ähnliches zu erreichen, wobei es möglich sein soll, kleinere Systemgesamtverformungen und eine geringere Dimensionierung von Elementen der Abfang-, Verbindungs- und Stützstruktur sowie deren Verankerung mit dem Untergrund zu erreichen.Compared to this known energy absorbing structure, it is a technical object of the present invention to achieve an efficient energy reduction of rockfall, logging, avalanche, or the like protection structures, it being possible to have smaller overall system deformations and a smaller dimensioning of elements of the interception, connection and support structure and their anchoring to the ground to achieve.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale des Anspruches 1.The solution of this object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Hierdurch wird u.a. erreicht, dass die Abfangstruktur nach Montage der Stützstruktur vorhangähnlich auf- und zugezogen werden kann, was die Montage der Gesamtanordnung erheblich vereinfacht.This will u.a. achieved that the interlocking structure after installation of the support structure curtain-like can be pulled up and pulled, which greatly simplifies the assembly of the overall arrangement.

Die Erfindung betrifft insbesondere eine unterstützende Energieabsorbierungsstruktur für flexible Schutzverbauungen gegen Steinschlag, Holzschlag, Lawinen oder ähnlichem, die direkt in die Abfangstruktur der Schutzverbauung integriert wird, sodass ein Großteil des Energieeintrags, eingebracht durch einen fallenden, rollenden oder springenden Gesteinskörper oder ähnlichem bereits durch die Kombination Abfangstruktur und unterstützende Energieabsorbierungsstruktur abgebaut werden kann.More particularly, the invention relates to a supporting energy absorbing structure for flexible rockfall, logging, avalanche, or the like, which is integrated directly into the interception structure of the protective enclosure so that much of the energy input introduced by a falling, rolling or jumping rock body or the like is already combined Capture structure and supporting energy absorbing structure can be degraded.

Die Erfindung sieht bevorzugterweise vor, dass dazu Verbindungselemente, wie etwa Stahlseile oder Ähnliches über eine gesamte Feldlänge bzw. mehrere Felder bis hin zur gesamten Verbaulänge der Schutzverbauung in bestimmten Abständen zu den Tragseilen (Randseilen) in etwa parallel zu diesen in die Abfangstruktur integriert werden. Dazu werden die Verbindungselemente entweder direkt mit der verwendeten Abfangstruktur (z.B.: Ringnetz, Omega- Netz oder ähnlichem) und/oder mit deren Geflechtsauflage verbunden. Diese Verbindung kann über herkömmliche Verbindungselemente, wie z.B.: Klemmen, Schäkel oder ähnlichem erzeugt werden, bzw. können die Verbindungselemente mit der Abfangstruktur (z.B.: Ringnetz, Omega- Netz oder ähnlichem) und/oder deren Geflechtsauflage vernäht oder geschlauft werden. Dabei ist es nicht nötig, sämtliche Maschen bzw. Ringelemente oder Ähnliches der Abfangstruktur in die Verbindung miteinzubeziehen. Es empfiehlt sich jedoch, eine über die gesamte Feldlänge bzw. Verbaulänge konstante Verbindung der Abfangstruktur und/oder deren Geflechtsauflage mit den verwendeten Verbindungselementen zu gestalten, ohne größere Bereiche der Abfangstruktur von dieser Verbindung auszuschließen. Lediglich bei Führung der Verbindungselemente über Elemente der Stützstruktur empfiehlt es sich, die Verbindung der unterstützenden Energieabsorbierungsstruktur im Bereich der Stützstruktur mit der Abfangstruktur für einen kleinen Bereich nicht auszuführen, um die Bewegungsfreiheit der Abfangstruktur nicht zu beeinträchtigen.The invention preferably provides that connecting elements, such as steel cables or the like over an entire field length or multiple fields up to the entire length of the protective barrier construction at certain distances to the support cables (edge ropes) are integrated approximately parallel to these in the interception structure. For this purpose, the connecting elements are connected either directly to the intercepting structure used (for example: ring network, omega network or the like) and / or to their braiding support. This connection can be produced by means of conventional connecting elements, such as, for example, clamps, shackles or the like, or the connecting elements can be sewn or looped with the interception structure (for example: ring net, omega net or the like) and / or their braiding support. It is not necessary to include all meshes or ring elements or the like of the interception structure in the compound. However, it is advisable to design a constant over the entire field length or installation length connection of the interception structure and / or their braid with the connection elements used, without excluding larger areas of the interception of this compound. Only when guiding the connecting elements via elements of the support structure, it is advisable not to carry out the connection of the supporting energy absorbing structure in the region of the support structure with the interception structure for a small area, so as not to affect the freedom of movement of the intercepting structure.

Die Anzahl der verwendeten Verbindungselemente, in weitere Folge Mittelseile genannt, und deren Abstand zu den Tragseilen ist der verwendeten Schutzverbauung, bzw. deren Energieaufnahmeklasse anzupassen.
Werden die Mittelsseile nur über ein Feld der Schutzverbauung geführt, werden selbige entweder in Kombination mit Energieabsorbierungselementen direkt an Elementen der Stützstruktur befestigt oder über Führungselemente (z.B.: Schäkel, Führungssattel oder ähnlichem), die wiederum durch Energieabsorbierungselemente unterstützt ausgeführt werden, an der Stützstruktur geführt und direkt in Kombination mit Energieabsorbierungselementen mit dem Untergrund (mittels Felsanker oder ähnlichem) verbunden.The number of fasteners used, referred to as a result middle cables, and their distance from the support cables is the protective enclosure used, or adapt their energy intake class.
If the middle ropes are only guided over a field of the protective barrier, the same either directly in combination with energy absorbing elements attached to elements of the support structure or guide elements (eg: shackles, guide saddle or the like), which in turn are supported supported by Energieabsierungselemente performed on the support structure and directly in combination with energy absorbing elements connected to the ground (by means of rock anchors or the like).

Bei einer Mittelseilführung über mehrere Felder, werden die Mittelseile über Führungselemente (z.B.: Schäkel, Führungssattel oder ähnlichem), die ebenfalls mit Energieabsorbierungselementen ausgestattet sind, an der Stützstruktur ins benachbarte Feld geführt und dort wiederum mit der Abfangstruktur in oben angeführter Weise verbunden. Die abschließende Befestigung der Mittelseile erfolgt wie beim Einbau selbiger über jeweils nur eine Feldlänge. Bei einer Mittelseilführung über mehrere Felder kann aber auch auf eine Führung der Mittelseile im Bereich einzelner Träger der Stützstruktur verzichtet werden, sodass z.B. ein Mittelseil ohne Zwischenführung über Elemente der Stützstruktur über zwei oder mehr Feldlängen mit der Abfangstruktur verbunden ist.In a middle rope guide over several fields, the middle ropes are guided via guiding elements (eg shackles, guide saddles or the like), which are also equipped with energy absorbing elements, to the support structure in the adjacent field and in turn connected to the interception structure in the manner described above. The final attachment of the middle ropes is the same as when installing selbiger over only one field length. In the case of a middle cable guide over a plurality of fields, it is also possible to dispense with guiding the middle cables in the region of individual supports of the support structure, so that e.g. a central cable is connected without intermediate guidance via elements of the support structure over two or more field lengths with the interception structure.

Die Erfindung zeichnet sich insbesondere durch folgende Vorteile aus:

  1. 1) Durch Kombination der unterstützenden Energieabsorbierungsstruktur mit der Abfangstruktur und/oder deren Geflechtsauflage über die gesamte Feldlänge (bzw. Verbaulänge) und eine (für den erwarteten Energieeintrag) günstig gewählte Anzahl von Mittelseilen und dementsprechend gewählten Abständen der eingebauten Mittelseile zu den Tragseilen, ist die Abfangstruktur der Schutzverbauung über deren gesamte Fläche durch die unterstützende Energieabsorbierungsstruktur gleichmäßig (symmetrisch) unterstützt.
  2. 2) Da im Einschlagbereich eines Gesteinskörpers oder ähnlichem in die Schutzverbauung die größte Systemverformung (aufgrund der Elastizität der verwendeten Abfangstruktur) entsteht, werden die Mittelseile, die diesen Bereich abdecken sofort mit Zugkräften belastet und können diese sofort an die mit ihnen verbundenen Energieabsorbierungselemente weitergeben. So werden durch einen raschen Energieabbau sämtliche Systemkomponenten (vor allem aber die Verbindungsstruktur) wesentlich entlastet.
  3. 3) Bei sehr hoch erwarteten Systemverformungen (bis 6 m) können Energieabsorbierungselemente zum Einsatz gebracht werden, die schon bei geringer Kraftwirkung ausgelöst werden, dafür aber große Verformungen zulassen bzw. können derzeit verwendete Energieabsorbierungselemente in Serie geschaltet werden. So kann Energie über einen längeren Weg abgebaut werden, ohne dass die Funktion des Gesamtsystems (z.B.: Erhaltung einer gewissen Restnutzhöhe nach einen Einschlag) dadurch negativ beeinflusst wird.
  4. 4) Ganz im Gegenteil wird durch die Entlastung der Verbindungsstruktur (Tragseile und Rückhalteseile), die in den meisten Fällen durch den Einbau von Energieabsorbierungselemente unterstützt wird, das Erreichen einer vorgegebenen Restnutzhöhe wesentlich verbessert.
  5. 5) Aufgrund der sofortigen Bremswirkung und der durch die Kombination der unterstützenden Energieabsorbierungsstruktur mit der Abfangstruktur entstehenden Versteifung der Abfangstruktur, wird eine wesentliche Verringerung der Gesamtsystemverformung erreicht, das heißt, der einfallende Gesteinkörper oder Ähnliches kann auf kürzerem Wege gestoppt werden. Die Verbausysteme können in Folge näher an zu schützende Objekte herangebaut werden.
  6. 6) Ein Großteil der heute angebotenen Verbausysteme gegen Steinschlag, Holzschlag, Lawinen oder ähnlichem können mit dieser unterstützenden Energieabsorbierungsstruktur ohne größeren technischen oder wirtschaftlichen Aufwand ausgestattet oder nachgerüstet werden.
The invention is characterized in particular by the following advantages:
  1. 1) By combining the supporting energy absorbing structure with the intercepting structure and / or its braiding over the entire length of the field (or shoring length) and a (for the expected energy input) favorably selected number of middle ropes and accordingly chosen distances of the built-in center cables to the support cables, the support structure of the protective structure over its entire surface by the supporting energy absorbing structure uniformly (symmetrically) supported.
  2. 2) Since in the impact area of a rock body or the like in the Schutzverbauung the largest system deformation (due to the elasticity of the intercepting structure used), the center ropes covering this area are immediately charged with tensile forces and can pass them immediately to their affiliated Energieabsorbierungselemente. Thus, all system components (but especially the connection structure) are significantly relieved by a rapid energy reduction.
  3. 3) In the case of highly expected system deformations (up to 6 m), it is possible to use energy-absorbing elements which are already activated with little force, but allow large deformations, or which currently used energy-absorbing elements can be connected in series. Thus, energy can be dissipated over a longer path, without the function of the entire system (eg: preservation of a certain residual utility height after impact) is negatively affected.
  4. 4) On the contrary, by relieving the connection structure (suspension ropes and restraint cords), which in most cases is supported by the incorporation of energy absorbing elements, the achievement of a given residual utility height is substantially improved.
  5. 5) Due to the instantaneous braking effect and the stiffening of the interceptor structure caused by the combination of the supporting energy absorbing structure with the intercepting structure, a substantial reduction of the overall system deformation is achieved, that is, the incident rock body or the like can be stopped in a shorter way. The Verbausysteme can be grown closer in sequence to be protected objects.
  6. 6) A large part of today offered Verbäherysteme against stone chipping, felling, avalanches or the like can be equipped with this supporting energy absorbing structure without major technical or economic effort or retrofitted.

Further details, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of exemplary embodiments with reference to the drawing. It shows:
Fig. 1
a side view of a first embodiment of the energy absorbing structure according to the invention, and
Fig. 2
a schematically greatly simplified front view of a second embodiment of the energy absorbing structure according to the invention.

Fig. 1 zeigt die Seitenansicht einer ersten Ausführungsform einer Schutzverbauung gegen Steinschlag, Holzschlag, Lawinen oder Ähnliches. Die Schutzverbauung weist eine Abfangstruktur 1 auf, die schematisch durch ein strichpunktierte Linie dargestellt ist. Sie wird im Beispielsfalle durch ein oberes Tragseil 2 und ein unteres Tragseil 3 mit den Elementen einer Stützstruktur 10 verbunden. Fig. 1 shows the side view of a first embodiment of a protective barrier against stone chipping, felling, avalanches or the like. The Schutzverbauung has a support structure 1, which is shown schematically by a dashed line. It is connected in the example case by an upper support cable 2 and a lower support cable 3 with the elements of a support structure 10.

Üblicherweise gliedert sich der modulartige Aufbau solcher Schutzsysteme in eine Abfangstruktur, eine Verbindungsstruktur, eine Stützstruktur, deren Verankerung und, wenn nötig eine Fundamentierung.Usually, the modular structure of such protection systems is divided into an interception structure, a connection structure, a support structure, its anchoring and, if necessary, a foundation.

Die Abfangstruktur 1 weist vorzugsweise grobmaschige Netzelemente 1 (z.B.: Ringnetz, Omega- Netz, etc.) auf, die teilweise durch das Aufbringen kleinmaschiger Geflechtsauflagen unterstützt werden, um ein Durchdringen kleiner Einschlagkörper zu verhindern. Die Aufgabe der Abfangstruktur 1 besteht, wie der Name schon sagt, im Abfangen der Einschlagkörper. Durch plastische Verformung der Netzelemente wird ein Teil der durch den Einschlagkörper eingebrachten kinetischen Energie abgebaut.The interception structure 1 preferably has coarse-meshed network elements 1 (for example: ring network, omega network, etc.), which are supported in part by the application of small-mesh braiding layers in order to prevent a penetration of small impact bodies. The task of the interception structure 1 consists, as the name suggests, in the interception of the impact body. By plastic deformation of the network elements, a part of the introduced by the impact body kinetic energy is reduced.

Die Abfangstruktur 1 wird mittels einer Verbindungsstruktur mit der Stützstruktur verbunden. Die Verbindungsstruktur weist ein (oder mehrere) oberes Tragseil(e) 2 und ein (oder mehrere) unteres Tragseil(e) 3, auch Randseile genannt, die von Stützenkopf zu Stützenkopf (bzw. von Stützenfuß zu Stützenfuß) über ein (oder mehrere) Systemfeld(er) gespannt werden. Die Tragseile 2,3 werden entweder an Elementen der Stützstruktur oder durch Felsanker 9 am Untergrund befestigt. Sie spannen mit der Stützstruktur die Abfangstruktur auf.The interception structure 1 is connected to the support structure by means of a connection structure. The connection structure comprises one (or more) upper support cable (s) 2 and one (or more) lower support cable (s) 3, also called edge cables, which extend from column head to column head (or from column to column foot) via one (or more) System field (s) are stretched. The support cables 2, 3 are fastened either to elements of the support structure or through rock anchors 9 on the ground. They span the interception structure with the support structure.

Weitere Elemente der Verbindungsstruktur sind Rückhalteseile 6, die die Kopf seiten der Stützstrukturelemente (z.B.: bei einer Ausführung als Pendelstützen) bergseits mit dem Untergrund mittels einer Verankerung (z.B.: Felsenanker) 9 verbinden und so in statisch bestimmter Position halten. Sind die Hauptelemente der Stützstruktur nicht mit Felsankern oder ähnlichem direkt mit dem Untergrund verbunden (z.B.: bei schwimmender Lagerung), sind zudem zusätzlich im Fußbereich der Stützelemente Rückhalteseile angebracht.Other elements of the connection structure are retaining ropes 6, the head sides of the support structure elements (eg: in one embodiment as pendulum supports) on the mountain side with the Connect the ground by means of an anchorage (eg rock anchor) 9 and keep it in a statically determined position. If the main elements of the support structure are not connected directly to the ground with rock anchors or the like (eg: in the case of floating mounting), retaining ropes are additionally attached in the foot area of the support elements.

Die Komponenten der Verbindungsstruktur (Tragseile 2,3 und Rückhalteseile 6) werden durch Energieabsorbierungselemente 8 unterstützt. Durch die genannten Energieabsorbierungselemente wird über plastische und/oder elastische Verformung ein Großteil der Eintragsenergie abgebaut.The components of the connection structure (supporting cables 2, 3 and retaining cables 6) are supported by energy absorbing elements 8. By means of said energy absorbing elements, a large part of the energy input is dissipated via plastic and / or elastic deformation.

Die Stützstruktur weist Träger 10 auf, deren Länge (Verbauhöhe) und deren horizontaler Abstand (Feldlängen) vom erwarteten Energieeintrag bestimmt werden. Im allgemeinen sind Feldlängen von etwa 10 m üblich.The support structure has carriers 10 whose length (installation height) and their horizontal spacing (field lengths) are determined by the expected energy input. In general, field lengths of about 10 m are common.

Die Lagerung der Träger 10 erfolgt vorzugsweise über Bodenplatten 5. Die Verbindung der Träger 10 zu den Bodenplatten 5 erfolgt entweder über ein Pendelgelenk (Pendelstütze) oder sie wird als fixe Verbindung (geschweißt, verschraubt oder ähnlichem) hergestellt. Die Bodenplatte 5 wird mit dem Untergrund direkt über Felsanker oder ähnlichem verbunden oder wird schwimmend gelagert und mit Rückhalteseilen bergseits zurückgehalten. Bei einer Ausführung als Pendelstütze wird der Kopfbereich des Trägers 10 mit Rückhalteseilen 6 bergseits zurückgehalten und so in statisch bestimmter Position gehalten.The support 10 is preferably carried by way of floor panels 5. The connection of the supports 10 to the floor panels 5 takes place either via a pendulum joint (pendulum support) or it is produced as a fixed connection (welded, screwed or the like). The bottom plate 5 is connected to the ground directly on rock anchors or the like or is stored in a floating and retained with retaining ropes on the mountain side. In an embodiment as a pendulum support of the head portion of the carrier 10 is retained with retaining ropes 6 mountain side and kept in a statically determined position.

Wie schon erwähnt wird ein Großteil der Eintragsenergie durch Energieabsorbierungselemente 8 verschiedenster Bauart und Funktionsweise abgebaut. Die Energieabsorbierungselemente 8 werden im engen Zusammenhang mit der Verbindungsstruktur eingesetzt. Sie werden in Kombination mit den Rückhalteseilen 6, Tragseilen 2,3 und/oder deren Führung im Bereich der Stützstruktur eingebaut. Ferner ist es möglich, Energieabsorbierungselemente vorzusehen, die über eine Verbindungsstruktur (z.B.: Stahlseile) punktuell mit der Abfangstruktur verbunden werden. Dadurch wird die Abfangstruktur durch Energieabsorbierungselemente direkt unterstützt.As already mentioned, a large part of the input energy is dissipated by energy absorbing elements 8 of the most varied design and mode of operation. The energy absorbing elements 8 are used in close association with the connection structure. They are installed in combination with the retaining ropes 6, 2.3 supporting cables and / or their guide in the region of the support structure. Further, it is possible to provide energy absorbing members which are selectively connected to the intercepting structure through a connection structure (e.g., steel cables). As a result, the interception structure is directly supported by energy absorption elements.

Die Träger 10 der Stützstruktur werden auf den besagten Bodenplatten 5, vorzugsweise über ein Pendelgelenk, gelagert. Die Bodenplatten 5 sind mit Felsankern 9 am Untergrund befestigt. Die Träger 10 werden mit Rückhalteseilen 6 am Kopfende bergseitig zurückgespannt und so in Position gehalten. Die Rückhalteseile 6 sind im Bereich ihrer Verankerung 9 durch Energieabsorbierungselementen 8 unterstützt.The supports 10 of the support structure are mounted on the said floor panels 5, preferably via a pendulum joint. The bottom plates 5 are fixed with rock anchors 9 on the ground. The carrier 10 are biased back with retaining ropes 6 at the head end and held in position. The retaining ropes 6 are supported in the region of their anchoring 9 by energy absorbing elements 8.

Das dargestellte Verbausystem ist bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform mit zwei Mittelseilen 7 in unterschiedlicher Höhe ausgestattet. Diese Seile 7 werden im dargestellten Fall mit der Abfangstruktur 1 über deren gesamte Länge (außer im Bereich der Träger 10) verbunden. Im Bereich der Träger bzw. der Stützstruktur 10 werden die Seile durch Seilführungen (hier Schäkel) geführt, seitlich werden sie durch Energieabsorbierungselemente 8 unterstützt und mit Felsankern 9 mit dem Untergrund befestigt.The Verbausystem shown is equipped in the illustrated embodiment with two middle ropes 7 at different heights. These cables 7 are connected in the illustrated case with the interception structure 1 over its entire length (except in the region of the carrier 10). In the area of the support or the support structure 10, the cables are guided by cable guides (here shackles), laterally they are supported by energy absorbing elements 8 and fastened with rock anchors 9 to the ground.

In Fig. 2 ist eine zweite Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Energieabsorbierungsstruktur dargestellt, bei der sämtliche Teile, die der Ausführungsform gemäß der Fig. 1 entsprechen, mit dem gleichen Bezugsziffern gekennzeichnet sind.
