Definitions
- the present invention relates to the construction of facing structures for civil engineering works.
- facings consisting of wire mesh panels, with stones retained and left apparent by the wire mesh panels.
- This type of facing is appreciated because of its relatively light weight and of its aesthetics. It can also be adapted to allow the growth of vegetation on the facing.
- This sort of wire mesh facing is applicable to retaining walls.
- a fill made of earth, sand, rocks or another granular material is stabilized by reinforcements which extend within the fill volume. Some of the reinforcements are connected to the facing which prevents the fill material from falling apart.
- JP2000-204573 discloses foldable cell elements usable to construct retaining walls and having front and rear faces made of wire mesh panels connected together by articulated connecting rods.
- the stepped facing is used to cover a pre-existing, self-supporting foundation base, rather than stabilized soil which has to be retained by the facing. In such a case, it is generally not possible to connect the facing elements to reinforcements extending into the underlying base.
- An object of the present invention is to overcome that difficulty.
- the support members are used to hang the stepped facing structure to the sloped base.
- the plurality of anchoring locations allow a distribution of the load along the slope. They can also be used to transport materials up or down during the construction work.
- the support members can be in the form of ladders applied against the foundation base and attached by means of bolts or other types of connectors.
- the method makes it possible to easily erect a stepped facing wall even where the sloped underlying surface is hard and smooth.
- Another aspect of the present invention relates to a construction work as defined in claim 5, with embodiments of the construction work set out in claims 6-15.
- Figure 1 shows a construction work which can be erected in accordance with the invention.
- the base to be covered is not made of stabilized soil or the like, but consists of a hard concrete foundation 1.
- the foundation base 1 has a sloped upper surface 2 to be covered by a facing made of stones and wire mesh panels.
- the facing has a stepped configuration, which gives a special appearance to the overall structure. It also provides horizontal terraces 3 along the facing, where trees or other plants 4 can be grown for ornamental purposes. Recesses 5 are provided in the stone fill on such terraces 3 for receiving earth or soil material enabling plants to be grown.
- the first step consists in attaching support members 6 to the foundation base 1 ( figure 2 ).
- the attachment can be made by means of bolts 7 distributed on the surface 2 of the base. The quantity and dimensions of the bolts are calculated to withstand the weight of the facing once completed.
- the support members 6 applied against the base surface 2 define a number of anchoring locations that will be used to position and hold the facing elements.
- the support members 6 are in the form of ladders. Each has a pair of uprights 8 and a series of transverse rods 9 fixed to the two uprights 8. Each ladder-shaped member is positioned on the base 1 with its uprights 8 laid along the upward direction of the sloped surface 2, so as to cover substantially the whole height of the base. Hence, the transverse rods 9 define the anchoring locations spaced along the upward direction of the sloped surface. Ladder members 6 are placed parallel to each other along the horizontal direction, with a typical mutual spacing of one or a few meters.
- the ladder-shaped support members 6 are usable to transport loads up or down the sloped surface.
- transverse rods 9 of a support member 6 receive hooked ends of connecting members 10, 11 a, 12a which can be put in place as soon as the support member 6 has been attached to the sloped surface 2, as shown in figure 2 , or later.
- the lower ends of the ladder uprights 8 are bent in the form of hooks 15 ( figure 2 ).
- the hooks 5 receive the lower edge of the lower wire mesh facing panel 16, as shown in figure 4 .
- the lowest connecting member 10 hanged to the ladder rods 9 is lifted and its end remote from the rod 9, which is also bent, is hooked around one of the wires of the raised mesh panel 16.
- the connecting member 10 thus forms an elongated link which holds the wire mesh panel 16 in a vertical position as the stone fill 20 is poured between the panel 16 and the sloped surface 2.
- Wire mesh partitions are arranged parallel to the plane of figures 4-6 to delimit laterally the volume receiving the stone fill 20.
- the first step of the facing is completed by positioning another wire mesh panel 11 b horizontally over the upper level of the fill.
- the front end of the panel 11 b is bent in order to hook around the upper edge of the vertical panel.
- the panel 11 b is lowered as indicated by the arrow in figure 4 .
- the cover panel 11 b is made from high tensile strength wire mesh in order to create a stable base for the next row of facing panels.

Description
- The present invention relates to the construction of facing structures for civil engineering works.
- It is particularly applicable to facings consisting of wire mesh panels, with stones retained and left apparent by the wire mesh panels. This type of facing is appreciated because of its relatively light weight and of its aesthetics. It can also be adapted to allow the growth of vegetation on the facing.
- This sort of wire mesh facing is applicable to retaining walls. A fill made of earth, sand, rocks or another granular material is stabilized by reinforcements which extend within the fill volume. Some of the reinforcements are connected to the facing which prevents the fill material from falling apart.
- Examples of such retaining walls are disclosed in
GB-A-2 212 532 EP-A-0 872 597 andEP-B-0 894 169 . -
JP2000-204573 - It is sometimes required to build the wire mesh facing structures with a stepped layout, in particular for aesthetic reasons. Plants can be grown on some of the terraces formed between the adjacent steps.
- In certain cases, the stepped facing is used to cover a pre-existing, self-supporting foundation base, rather than stabilized soil which has to be retained by the facing. In such a case, it is generally not possible to connect the facing elements to reinforcements extending into the underlying base.
- An object of the present invention is to overcome that difficulty.
- It is thus proposed a method of constructing a stepped facing structure over a foundation base having a sloped surface, as defined in claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the method are set out in claims 2-4.
- The support members are used to hang the stepped facing structure to the sloped base. The plurality of anchoring locations allow a distribution of the load along the slope. They can also be used to transport materials up or down during the construction work. The support members can be in the form of ladders applied against the foundation base and attached by means of bolts or other types of connectors.
- The method makes it possible to easily erect a stepped facing wall even where the sloped underlying surface is hard and smooth.
- Another aspect of the present invention relates to a construction work as defined in
claim 5, with embodiments of the construction work set out in claims 6-15. - Other features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of non-limiting exemplary embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings, in which:
-
figure 1 is a schematic cross-section view of a construction work according to the invention; -
figure 2 is an lateral view of a support member mounted on the sloped foundation base; -
figure 3 is a plan view of a ladder-shaped support member; and -
figures 4-6 are lateral views illustrating various stages of a construction method according to the invention. -
Figure 1 shows a construction work which can be erected in accordance with the invention. - The base to be covered is not made of stabilized soil or the like, but consists of a hard concrete foundation 1. The foundation base 1 has a sloped upper surface 2 to be covered by a facing made of stones and wire mesh panels.
- The facing has a stepped configuration, which gives a special appearance to the overall structure. It also provides
horizontal terraces 3 along the facing, where trees orother plants 4 can be grown for ornamental purposes.Recesses 5 are provided in the stone fill onsuch terraces 3 for receiving earth or soil material enabling plants to be grown. - To build the facing, the first step consists in attaching support members 6 to the foundation base 1 (
figure 2 ). The attachment can be made by means of bolts 7 distributed on the surface 2 of the base. The quantity and dimensions of the bolts are calculated to withstand the weight of the facing once completed. - The support members 6 applied against the base surface 2 define a number of anchoring locations that will be used to position and hold the facing elements.
- In the preferred embodiment shown in
figure 3 , the support members 6 are in the form of ladders. Each has a pair ofuprights 8 and a series oftransverse rods 9 fixed to the twouprights 8. Each ladder-shaped member is positioned on the base 1 with itsuprights 8 laid along the upward direction of the sloped surface 2, so as to cover substantially the whole height of the base. Hence, thetransverse rods 9 define the anchoring locations spaced along the upward direction of the sloped surface. Ladder members 6 are placed parallel to each other along the horizontal direction, with a typical mutual spacing of one or a few meters. - While the construction of the stepped wall takes place, the ladder-shaped support members 6 are usable to transport loads up or down the sloped surface.
- Some of the
transverse rods 9 of a support member 6 receive hooked ends of connectingmembers figure 2 , or later. - The lower ends of the
ladder uprights 8 are bent in the form of hooks 15 (figure 2 ). Thehooks 5 receive the lower edge of the lower wiremesh facing panel 16, as shown infigure 4 . - When installing the lower facing
panel 16, the lowest connectingmember 10 hanged to theladder rods 9 is lifted and its end remote from therod 9, which is also bent, is hooked around one of the wires of the raisedmesh panel 16. The connectingmember 10 thus forms an elongated link which holds thewire mesh panel 16 in a vertical position as thestone fill 20 is poured between thepanel 16 and the sloped surface 2. Wire mesh partitions (not shown) are arranged parallel to the plane offigures 4-6 to delimit laterally the volume receiving thestone fill 20. - Once the
fill 20 has been introduced up to the level of the upper edge of thewire mesh panel 16, the first step of the facing is completed by positioning another wire mesh panel 11 b horizontally over the upper level of the fill. In the example, the front end of the panel 11 b is bent in order to hook around the upper edge of the vertical panel. The panel 11 b is lowered as indicated by the arrow infigure 4 . Connectingmembers 11 a hanged to theladder rods 9 are then pivoted down and welded to the wire mesh panel 11 b. This closes the volume of the lower step and provides another link 11 (=11a+11b) for securing thepanel 16 to the support members 6. The cover panel 11 b is made from high tensile strength wire mesh in order to create a stable base for the next row of facing panels. - In the example depicted in
figure 5 , the second step of the facing has avertical front panel 17 which belongs to an L-shaped wire mesh element which also has abase portion 18 folded perpendicularly to be laid on the upper side 11 b of the underlying step. Astiffener link 19 is connected to thebase portion 18 and thefront panel 17 to maintain the 90° angle between them. - Once the L-shaped wire mesh element 17-18 has been put in place, the next connecting
member 12a is lowered and another connecting member is installed with a hooked-end gripping the wire mesh of the raisedpanel 17 and an opposite end joined to the free end of the connectingmember 12a. These two connecting members are then welded together to form anelongated link 12 having the suitable length as shown infigure 5 . Severalsuch links 12 are made along the structure, and lateral partitions (not shown) are installed. At this time the stone fill of the second step can be introduced. Once the appropriate fill level is reached, theupper panel 11 of the step can be brought, assembled and fixed as described with reference tofigure 4 . - The connections at the bottom and in the middle of each facing
panel additional cover connection 11 at the top of the facing panel minimizes the deformation of the structure while the next step is being built. - The above-described process of erecting a facing step can be iterated up to the upper level of the wall.
- If required,
intermediate steps 21 can be added between the thus formed main steps as shown infigure 1 . Suchintermediate steps 21 can be made by assembling wire mesh panels in the corners between adjacent steps, or by installing prefabricated wire mesh boxes (gabions). In an embodiment of the invention, suchintermediate steps 21 have a reduced length perpendicularly to the plane offigure 1 (e.g. between 1 and 2 meters), and are used to provide stairs for allowing maintenance personnel to easily climb up or down the structure. - A remarkable feature of the above-described process of erecting the facing steps is that it is very easy to modulate the width of the
terraces 3 between adjacent steps. Such terrace width modulation can be required by the architect. It suffices that thelinks figures 4-6 . - More generally, the process is very flexible regarding the position of the individual steps. The width of the terraces can be varied at will to accommodate the wishes of the architect of the structure. The facing
panel 17 is designed so that it can be put in place in various positions on top of the underlying cover element 11 b. - The steps, or only some of them, can easily be made of a curved or rounded shaped if desired, which is very difficult, if possible, to achieve with conventional facings or with gabions.
-
Figure 6 illustrates how arecess 5 filled withsoil material 25 can be provided on aterrace 3 between two adjacent steps. The step where the recess is made is prepared as indicated previously, by installing the L-shaped wire mesh element comprising thefront panel 17, assemblingelongated links 12, and pouringstones 20. - The fill is introduced up to the top of the step, leaving a ditch to form
recess 5. At this time, a wiremesh edge element 26 is hooked to the upper edge of thefront panel 17. Theedge element 26 has a bent shape as shown in the cross-sectional view offigure 6 , so that its front part defines the edge of theterrace 3 and is bent rear part forms the front wall of therecess 5. Then, the L-shaped wire mesh element 17-18 for the next step, with itsstiffeners 19, is laid on the current upper level of the fill, whereby the bottom of the next facingpanel 17 defines the rear wall of therecess 5. Additional stones are introduced to maintain the new L-shaped element 17-18 in place. It is possible to fold back one or more of the next connectingmembers 12a and to assemble them to form elongated links for holding the next facingpanel 17 while more stones are introduced. - A
geotextile liner 27 is placed into therecess 5 before it is filled with thesoil material 25. Theliner 27 separates thesoil material 25 from thestones 20. It prevents the soil material from leaking through the stones while allowing the flow of water.
