Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung zum Anschluss eines Geokunststoffs an einen tragfähigen Untergrund gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an arrangement for connecting a geosynthetic material to a load-bearing substrate according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Zur Stabilisierung eines böschungs- oder grundbruchgefährdeten Untergrunds ist der Einsatz von Geokunststoffen, insbesondere Geotextilien und Geogitter seit langem bekannt. Diese werden großflächig lagenweise in den Untergrund eingebaut und mit Erdschichten überschüttet. Geokunststoffe wirken dabei wie eine Bewehrung, weshalb diese Konstruktionsweise auch als "bewehrte Erde" bezeichnet wird. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es auch schon bekannt, Geokunststoffe mit Bodennägeln zu kombinieren, um die Standfestigkeit des Untergrunds zusätzlich zu erhöhen.To stabilize a bedrock or groundbreaking surface, the use of geosynthetics, especially geotextiles and geogrids has long been known. These are installed over a large area in layers into the ground and showered with layers of earth. Geosynthetics act as a reinforcement, which is why this construction method is also referred to as "reinforced soil". In this context, it is already known to combine geosynthetics with soil nails to increase the stability of the substrate in addition.

Ein Sonderfall stellt die Stabilisierung von Bodenschichten dar, bei der der zu sichernde Untergrund einseitig von standfestem Untergrund wie zum Beispiel einer Wand oder Fels begrenzt wird. Dabei entwickelt sich über die Höhe des zu sichernden Untergrunds ein horizontal gerichteter Erddruck, der Ursache für unerwünschte Bewegungen des Untergrunds sein kann.A special case is the stabilization of soil layers, in which the substrate to be protected is bounded on one side by stable ground such as a wall or rock. In this case, a horizontally oriented earth pressure develops over the height of the ground to be secured, which can be the cause of undesired movements of the ground.

Aus der FR 2 913 035 ist eine Verkleidung einer Geländewand bekannt, bei der die Verkleidung im horizontalen Abstand zur Geländewand mittels horizontaler verlaufender Haltemittel gehalten wird. Der sich dabei ergebende Raum zwischen Verkleidung und Geländewand ist mit einer verdichteten Aufschüttung aufgefüllt. Die Haltemittel sind im Bereich der Verkleidung und Geländewand jeweils umgeschlagen und mit ihren freien zurücklaufenden Endabschnitten jeweils in die verdichtete Aufschüttung eingebettet. Der dabei erzeugte Reibschluss infolge der Auflast durch die Aufschüttung verhindert ein Lösen der Haltemittel.From the FR 2 913 035 is a covering a terrain wall is known in which the panel is held at a horizontal distance from the terrain wall by means of horizontal extending holding means. The resulting space between the cladding and the land wall is filled with a compact bedding. The holding means are each folded in the area of the cladding and terrain wall and embedded with their free return end sections in each case in the compacted pile. The frictional engagement generated as a result of the ballast by the landfill prevents loosening of the holding means.

Um Geokunststoffe im standfesten Untergrund zu verankern, sind auch schon Bodennägel und Geokunststoffe kombiniert worden. Dabei stellt sich der Anschluss des Geokunststoffes an den Badennagel als kritisch heraus. Erlaubt die Art der Befestigung einen zu großen Schlupf zwischen Bodennagel und Geokunststoff. dann sind bis zur Aktivierung der Verankerungskraft Bewegungen der gefährdeten Erdschichten möglich. Bei Überschreiten der vom Untergrund aufnehmbaren Scherkräfte bilden sich in der Folge Gleitfugen zwischen den unterschiedlichen Erdschichten aus, die einer späteren Instabilität Vorschub leisten.Ground anchors and geosynthetics have already been combined to anchor geosynthetics in stable ground. The connection of the geosynthetic material to the bath nail turns out to be critical. The type of attachment allows too much slippage between soil nail and geosynthetics. then until the activation of the anchoring force movements of the endangered layers of the earth are possible. If the shear forces that can be absorbed by the substrate are exceeded, slip joints between the different earth layers are formed as a result, which contribute to a later instability.

Vor diesem Hintergrund besteht die Aufgabe der Erfindung darin, einen kraftschlüssigen Anschluss eines Geokunststoffs an einen Bodennagel bereit zu stellen, bei dem nur geringe oder keine Bewegungen des zu sichernden Untergrunds auftreten.Against this background, the object of the invention is to provide a non-positive connection of a geosynthetic material to a ground nail, in which little or no movement of the ground to be secured occur.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Anordnung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by an arrangement having the features of patent claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Advantageous developments emerge from the subclaims.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist vorgesehen den Geokunststoff nicht nur punktuell, sondern entlang einer oder mehrerer Befestigungslinien zu verankern. Verformungen des Geokunststoffes treten bei dieser Befestigungsart gegenüber einer punktuellen Befestigung in wesentlich geringerem Maße auf, was in der Folge Bewegungen im Untergrund reduziert oder ganz verhindert. Die Gefahr instabiler Bodenschichten wird dadurch erheblich verringert. Zur Umsetzung dieses Erfindungsgedankens ist ein Anschlussstab vorgesehen, der planparallel zum Untergrund entlang einer vorbestimmten Befestigungslinie verläuft und in dem standfesten Untergrund mit Hilfe von Ankerstäben verankert ist. Auf diese Weise wird eine Möglichkeit geschaffen, den Geokunststoff entlang des Anschlussstabes zu fixieren, wobei sich eine linienförmige Befestigung des Geokunststoffes vorzugsweise entlang des Randbereichs des Geokunststoffes ergibt. Eine horizontale Verschiebung des Geokunststoffes in nennenswertem Umfang ist dadurch nicht mehr möglich.According to the invention, the geosynthetic material is intended to be anchored not only at points, but also along one or more fastening lines. Deformations of the geosynthetics occur in this type of attachment against a punctiform attachment to a much lesser extent, which reduces as a result movements in the ground or completely prevented. The risk of unstable soil layers is thereby significantly reduced. To implement this inventive concept, a connecting rod is provided, which runs plane-parallel to the ground along a predetermined fastening line and is anchored in the stable ground by means of anchor rods. In this way, a possibility is created to fix the geosynthetics along the connecting rod, wherein a line-shaped attachment of the geosynthetic preferably results along the edge region of the geosynthetic. A horizontal shift of geosynthetics to a significant extent is no longer possible.

In bevorzugter Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der den Anschluss an den Untergrund bewirkende Ankerstab mit seinem aus dem Untergrund herausreichenden zweiten Längsabschnitt mit einem Spannschloss versehen. Das Spannschloss ermöglicht es, die Lage des Anschlussstabs in Längsrichtung des Ankerstabs verändern zu können. Durch Zusammenschrauben des Spannschlosses kann beispielsweise die Länge des Ankerstabs insgesamt verkürzt und damit der Geokunststoff über seine gesamte Fläche entgegen der erwarteten Bodenbewegung gespannt werden. Auf diese Weise wird jeglicher Schlupf des Geokunststoffs im Bereich der Befestigung eliminiert und damit das Risiko einer Bodeninstabilität weiter reduziert.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting rod to the substrate causing anchor rod is provided with its reaching out from the background second longitudinal section with a turnbuckle. The turnbuckle makes it possible to change the position of the connecting rod in the longitudinal direction of the anchor rod. By screwing together the turnbuckle, for example, the length of the anchor rod can be shortened overall and thus the geosynthetics can be stretched over its entire surface counter to the expected ground movement. In this way, any slip of geosynthetics in the area of the attachment is eliminated, further reducing the risk of soil instability.

Im Sinne einer einfach handzuhabenden, aber gleichzeitig wirkungsvollen und wirtschaftlichen Lagerung des Anschlussstabs an den Gewindestäben, sind an den Enden der Gewindestäbe Aufnahmen vorgesehen, die vorzugsweise von einer aufgeschraubten oder angeschweißten Öse mit Querbohrung gebildet werden. Das Innengewinde der aufgeschraubten Öse ermöglicht ein einfaches Aufschrauben auf das freie Ende eines Ankerstabs. Die Querbohrung dient dazu, den Anschlussstab durch Hindurchführung desselben kraftschlüssig zu halten, wobei der Anschlussstab sich vorteilhafterweise über mehrere Aufnahmen unterschiedlicher Ankerstellen hinweg erstreckt. So kann die Verankerung des Geokunststoffs allein durch Schrauben und Stecken hergestellt werden, ohne den Einsatz zusätzlicher Werkzeuge und Ausrüstung.In terms of a simple to handle, but at the same time effective and economical storage of the connecting rod to the threaded rods, receptacles are provided at the ends of the threaded rods, which are preferably formed by a screwed or welded eyelet with transverse bore. The internal thread of the screwed eyelet allows easy screwing on the free end of an anchor rod. The transverse bore serves to frictionally hold the connecting rod by passing it through, whereby the connecting rod advantageously extends over a plurality of receptacles of different anchor points. Thus, the anchoring of the geosynthetic can be made solely by screwing and plugging, without the use of additional tools and equipment.

Gemäß einer alternativen Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, den Anschlussstab mittels Spanngurten an den freien Enden der Ankerstäbe, vorzugsweise an Aufnahmen der Ankerstäbe, zu befestigen. Durch Verkürzen der Spanngurte kann ebenfalls der Schlupf aus dem Geokunststoff eliminiert werden.According to an alternative embodiment of the invention, the connecting rod by means of tension straps at the free ends of the anchor rods, preferably on recordings of Anchor rods to attach. By shortening the tension straps, the slip from the geosynthetics can also be eliminated.

Zur Erreichung einer linienförmigen Befestigung des Geokunststoff am Anschlussstab erweist es sich als besonders vorteilhaft, den Geokunststoff um den Anschlussstab umzuschlagen und im Überlappungsbereich mit dem übrigen Geokunststoff zu verbinden. In Verbindung mit einem Geogitter als Geokunststoff zeigt sich hierbei eine Verbindungsart als besonders wirkungsvoll und gleichzeitig einfach, bei der die Längsstege des umgeschlagenen Geogitters die Gitterstruktur des übrigen Geogitters durchdringen und auf diese Weise Schlaufen gebildet werden, durch welche stabförmige Riegelelemente gesteckt werden.To achieve a linear attachment of geosynthetics on the connecting rod, it proves to be particularly advantageous to turn the geosynthetics around the connecting rod and connect in the overlap area with the rest of geosynthetics. In conjunction with a geogrid as geosynthetics this shows a connection as particularly effective and at the same time easy, in which the longitudinal webs of the folded geogrid penetrate the grid structure of the rest of the geogrid and in this way loops are formed through which rod-shaped locking elements are inserted.

Eine solche Ausführungsform der Erfindung ergänzt sich in idealer Weise mit in den Ankerstab integrierten Spannschlössern oder Spanngurten, da ein durch diese Art der Befestigung sich ergebender geringer Schlupf durch die Spannschlösser oder Spanngurte kompensiert werden kann.Such an embodiment of the invention is ideally complemented with integrated in the anchor rod turnbuckles or straps, as a result of this type of attachment resulting low slip can be compensated by the turnbuckles or straps.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung besitzt der Anschlussstab an seinem Außenumfang ein Gewinde, um auf diese Weise mit Hilfe von Schraubmuffen einen quasi endlosen linienförmigen Anschluss des Geokunststoffes an den tragfähigen Untergrund zu ermöglichen.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the connecting rod has a thread on its outer circumference in order in this way, with the aid of threaded sleeves, to enable a virtually endless line-shaped connection of the geosynthetic material to the supporting substrate.

The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing. It shows

In Fig. 1 sieht man zunächst in schematischer Darstellung den Untergrund, der aus einem standfesten Gebirge 1 und einer davor künstlich hergestellten Aufschüttung 2 besteht, die aus lagenweise verdichteten Schichten 3 aufgebaut wird. Die Aufschüttung 2 weist auf der dem standfesten Gebirge 1 abgewandten Seite eine Böschung 4 auf, deren Böschungswinkel im vorliegenden Beispiel steiler ist als der innere Reibungswinkel des für die Aufschüttung 2 verwendeten Materials. Daraus resultiert eine Tendenz zur Instabilität der Böschung 4, der durch Verlegen eines Geogitters 5 auf der Oberseite der zuvor eingebrachten Schicht 3 entgegengewirkt wird. Im fertigen Zustand ist die Aufschüttung 2 also von horizontal verlaufenden Geogittern 5 durchsetzt, die in mehreren vertikal beabstandeten Ebenen planparallel übereinander liegen, was in der Fachsprache auch als "bewehrte Erde" bezeichnet wird. Zur Böschung 4 hin bildet ein winkelförmiges Stahlgitterelement 6 den Abschluss, dessen horizontaler Schenkel 7 kraftschlüssig mit dem Geogitter 5 verbunden ist und dessen aufrechter Schenkel 8 die Böschung 4 stabilisiert.In Fig. 1 One first sees in a schematic representation the ground, which consists of a stable mountain 1 and a previously artificially produced landfill 2, which is built up of layers 3 densified in layers. The landfill 2 points to the the steady rock 1 side facing away from an embankment 4, the slope angle is steeper in the present example than the inner friction angle of the material used for the landfill 2. This results in a tendency for instability of the slope 4, which is counteracted by laying a geogrid 5 on top of the previously introduced layer 3. In the finished state, the landfill 2 is thus interspersed by horizontally extending geogrids 5, which lie in a plurality of vertically spaced planes plane-parallel one above the other, which is also referred to in the jargon as "reinforced soil". For embankment 4 through an angle-shaped steel grid element 6 forms the conclusion, the horizontal leg 7 is non-positively connected to the geogrid 5 and the upright leg 8 stabilizes the slope 4.

Zur Lagesicherung des Geogitters 5 ist dieses mit Hilfe von Bodennägeln 9 im standfesten Gebirge 1 verankert. Zu diesem Zweck sind mehrere Bodennägel 9 auf gleicher Höhe und in seitlichem Abstand innerhalb von Bohrlöchern 11 angeordnet, wobei die Längsachse der Bodennägel 9 in Richtung der erwarteten Bodenbewegung verläuft oder zumindest eine richtungsparallele Komponente dazu besitzt, was heißen soll, dass die Bodennägel nicht senkrecht zur erwarteten Bewegungsrichtung orientiert sind. Wie vor allem aus den Figuren 2 und 3 ersichtlich, bestehen die Bodennägel 9 im Wesentlichen aus einem Ankerstab, der sich mit seinem ersten Längsabschnitt 10 in ein Bohrloch 11 erstreckt. Der Hohlraum zwischen der Bohrlochwandung und dem ersten Längsabschnitt 10 ist mit einem Mörtel 12 aufgefüllt, der nach Erhärten einen Verbundkörper bildet, der die auf den Bodennagel 9 einwirkenden Kräfte an das standfeste Gebirge 1 überträgt.To secure the geogrid 5 this is anchored with the help of soil nails 9 in stable mountains 1. For this purpose, a plurality of soil nails 9 are arranged at the same height and laterally within boreholes 11, wherein the longitudinal axis of the soil nails 9 in the direction of expected ground movement or at least has a directionally parallel component, which means that the soil nails not perpendicular to expected direction of movement are oriented. Especially from the Figures 2 and 3 As can be seen, the ground nails 9 essentially consist of an anchor rod which extends with its first longitudinal section 10 into a borehole 11. The cavity between the borehole wall and the first longitudinal section 10 is filled with a mortar 12, which forms after hardening a composite body, which transmits the forces acting on the bottom nail 9 forces to the stable mountains 1.

Das luftseitige Ende des Bohrlochs 11 ist von einer Kalottenplatte 13 verschlossen, durch welche sich der Bodennagel 9 mit seinem außerhalb des Bohrlochs 11 liegenden zweiten Längsabschnitt 14 erstreckt. Eine auf dem zweiten Längsabschnitt 14 sitzende Kugelbundmutter 15 spannt die Kalottenplatte 13 gegen das Gebirge 1, wobei durch eine komplementäre Formgebung von Kalotte und Kugelbundmutter ein Winkelausgleich ermöglicht wird.The air-side end of the borehole 11 is closed by a dome plate 13, through which the bottom nail 9 extends with its second longitudinal section 14 lying outside the borehole 11. A seated on the second longitudinal section 14 ball collar nut 15 biases the dome plate 13 against the mountains 1, wherein an angle compensation is made possible by a complementary shape of dome and ball nut.

Der zweite Längsabschnitt 14 des Bodennagels 9 ist zweigeteilt, wobei der getrennte Endabschnitt 16 über ein Spannschloss 17 mit dem übrigen Ankerstab fluchtend verbunden ist. Das Spannschloss 17 erlaubt es, den axialen Abstand zwischen dem Endabschnitt 16 und übrigem Ankerstab einstellen zu können.The second longitudinal section 14 of the bottom nail 9 is divided into two, wherein the separate end portion 16 is connected via a turnbuckle 17 in alignment with the rest of the anchor rod. The turnbuckle 17 makes it possible to adjust the axial distance between the end portion 16 and the rest of the tie rod.

Wie die Fig. 2 und 3 zeigen, ist auf den Endabschnitt 16 eine aufgeschraubte Öse 18 aufgebracht. Zu diesem Zweck weist die Öse 18 eine axiale Bohrung mit Innengewinde auf, die mit dem Außengewinde des Bodennagels 9 in Eingriff steht. Alternativ wäre es auch möglich, die Öse 18 an den Ankerstab anzuschweißen. Im Kopfbereich ist in die Öse 18 eine Querbohrung 19 eingebracht, die eine Aufnahme für einen darin einsteckbaren Anschlussstab 20 bildet. Ein solcher Bodennagel 9 bildet zusammen mit dem Anschlussstab 20 eine Anordnung zum Anschluss des Geogitters 5 an das standfeste Gebirge 1, worauf im Folgenden näher eingegangen wird.As the Fig. 2 and 3 show, a screwed eyelet 18 is applied to the end portion 16. For this purpose, the eyelet 18 has an axial bore with internal thread, which is in engagement with the external thread of the bottom nail 9. Alternatively, it would also be possible to weld the eyelet 18 to the anchor rod. In the head area, a transverse bore 19 is introduced into the eyelet 18, which forms a receptacle for a connecting rod 20 which can be inserted therein. Such a ground nail 9 forms, together with the connecting rod 20, an arrangement for connecting the geogrid 5 to the stable rock 1, which will be discussed in more detail below.

Insbesondere Fig. 2 zeigt den kraftschlüssigen Anschluss des Geogitters 5 an die Bodennägel 9. Dazu ist das Geogitter 5 um den in den aufgeschraubten oder angeschweißten Ösen 18 gehaltenen Anschlussstab 20 umgeschlagen. Der Umschlag 21 ist auf dem übrigen Geogitter 5 abgelegt, und zwar derart, dass entlang des Anschlussstabs 20 die von den Längsstegen 22 und Querstegen 23 gebildeten Maschen des Umschlags 21 und dem übrigen Geogitter 5 in etwa deckungsgleich übereinander liegen.Especially Fig. 2 shows the non-positive connection of the geogrid 5 to the bottom nails 9. For this purpose, the geogrid 5 is folded around the held in the screwed or welded eyelets 18 connecting rod 20. The envelope 21 is deposited on the remaining geogrid 5, in such a way that along the connecting rod 20, the meshes formed by the longitudinal webs 22 and transverse webs 23 of the envelope 21 and the rest of the geogrid 5 lie approximately congruently one above the other.

Zum Verbinden des Umschlags 21 mit dem übrigen Geogitter 5 sind die Längsstege 22 durch die Maschenöffnungen geführt, wobei sich die Längsstege 22 des Umschlags 21 mit denen des übrigen Geogitters 5 zweimal kreuzen und auf diese Weise Schlaufen bilden. Durch die Schlaufen ist ein zum Anschlussstab 20 in etwa parallel verlaufender stabförmiger Riegel 24 gesteckt, der die Verriegelung des Geogitters 5 am Anschlussstab 20 bewirkt.To connect the envelope 21 with the rest of the geogrid 5, the longitudinal webs 22 are guided through the mesh openings, wherein the longitudinal webs 22 of the envelope 21 intersect with those of the remaining geogrid 5 twice and form loops in this way. Through the loops, a connecting rod 20 in approximately parallel rod-shaped latch 24 is inserted, which causes the locking of the geogrid 5 on the connecting rod 20.

Da diese Art des Anschlusses des Geogitters 5 an die Bodennägel 9 noch mit einem gewissen Schlupf behaftet ist, kann vorteilhafterweise mit Hilfe der Spannschlösser 17 die axiale Länge des Bodennagels 9 verkürzt und damit das Geogitter 5 gespannt werden, so dass ein möglicher Schlupf aus dem System eliminiert wird.Since this type of connection of the geogrid 5 to the bottom nails 9 is still subject to a certain amount of slippage, the axial length of the bottom nail 9 can advantageously be shortened with the aid of the turnbuckles 17 and thus the geogrid 5 can be tensioned so that a possible slippage from the system is eliminated.

In den Zeichnungen nicht dargestellt ist eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung, bei der der Anschlussstab mittels eines oder mehrerer Spanngurte am Ankerstab befestigt ist. Der Spanngurt kann dabei um den Anschlussstab geführt sein und schließt beispielsweise an die auf dem freien Ende des zweiten Längsabschnitts des Ankerstabs sitzende Aufnahme an. Durch Spannen des Spanngurts wird er Anschlussstab in Richtung der Ankerstäbe gespannt und mit ihm das Geogitter oder der Geokunststoff.Not shown in the drawings is an embodiment of the invention, wherein the connecting rod is secured by means of one or more straps on the anchor rod. The tension belt may be guided around the connecting rod and connects, for example, to the seated on the free end of the second longitudinal portion of the anchor rod recording. By tensioning the tensioning belt he is tensioned connecting rod in the direction of the anchor rods and with him the geogrid or the geosynthetic.

Claims (9)

  1. Arrangement for connecting a geosynthetic material (5) to a stable base (1) comprising at least two anchor rods which each form ground nails (9) and are each anchored in the stable base (1) by a first longitudinal portion (10) and extend out of the stable base (1) by a second longitudinal portion (14), the geosynthetic material (5) being connected in a non-positive manner to the at least two anchor rods in the region of the two longitudinal portions (14),
    characterised by
    - a connecting rod (20) which extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the anchor rods and to which and over the length of which the geosynthetic material (5) is connected in a non-positive manner,
    - means which are provided for attaching the connecting rod (20) to each of the free ends of the second longitudinal portion (14) of the anchor rods.
  2. Arrangement according to claim 1, characterised in that each of the means comprises a receptacle to which the connecting rod is fixed and which is connected in each case to the free end of the second longitudinal portion (14) of the anchor rods.
  3. Arrangement according to claim 2, characterised in that the receptacle at the end of the threaded rod consists of an eyelet (18) which is screwed or welded thereto and has a cross-hole (19) through which the connecting rod (20) extends.
  4. Arrangement according to any of claims 1 to 3, characterised in that the means also comprise a turnbuckle (17) which is interposed between the receptacle and the second longitudinal portion (14).
  5. Arrangement according to any of claims 1 to 4, characterised in that the means comprise at least one tensioning element, preferably a tension belt, which extends from the second longitudinal portion (14) of the anchor rod or from the receptacle thereof to the connecting rod (20).
  6. Arrangement according to any of claims 1 to 5, characterised in that, in order to fasten it to the connecting rod (20), the geosynthetic material (5) is enveloped around the connecting rod (20) and the envelope (21) forms connecting points to the remaining geosynthetic material (5).
  7. Arrangement according to claim 6, characterised in that the geosynthetic material consists of a geogrid (5) having a grid structure formed from longitudinal webs (22) and transverse webs (23), the connecting points being formed by the longitudinal webs (22) of the envelope (21) and of the remaining geogrid (5) being guided so as to form a double criss-cross between two adjacent transverse webs (23) in order to create a loop, and a rod-like bar (24) being inserted through the loops.
  8. Arrangement according to any of claims 1 to 7, characterised in that the outer periphery of the connecting rod (20) and/or the anchor rod comprises ribs or a thread.
  9. Arrangement according to claim 8, characterised in that at least two connecting rods (20) are butt-jointed by means of sockets.
