Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a large-caliber casing construction for preventing a collapse or an inflow of an earth layer during excavation of the ground for laying a foundation in the process of building a underwater structure, such as a dam, a bridge, and an offshore wind structure under water, such as sea and river, and more particularly, to a temporary structure of a large-caliber casing type and a method of constructing the same, which enables batch installation after prefabrication to thereby reduce field work and can flexibly cope with irregular underwater ground.
  • a stable foundation work on the underwater ground must be preceded.
  • the foundation work of the underwater ground is carried out through a method of constructing mono piles after excavating the underwater ground.
  • a temporary structure of a large-caliber casing type Before excavation of the underwater ground, it is necessary to install a temporary structure of a large-caliber casing type in the foundation work area in order to prevent an inflow of weak soil or water into the foundation work area or a collapse of the underwater ground.
  • a method of embedding large-caliber casing steel pipes (large-caliber steel pipe pile type) is a representative method of constructing temporary structures.
  • the large-caliber steel pipe pile type is a method of manufacturing integrally large-caliber casing steel pipes with steel materials around a factory or a construction field, carrying the manufactured steel pipes into the construction field and constructing them while sinking them in water.
  • Such a method can reduce field work but has several problems in that it needs large-scale equipment for carrying and lifting the large-sized casing steel pipes and in that stabilization work of the underwater ground must be previously carried out in order to stably settle and install the casing steel pipes in the underwater ground.
  • the method cannot prevent a collapse or an inflow of an earth layer while the casing steel pipes excavate the underwater ground.
  • the present invention has been made in an effort to solve the above-mentioned problems occurring in the prior arts, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a temporary structure of a large-caliber casing type and a method of constructing the same, which enables batch installation after prefabrication to thereby reduce field work and can flexibly cope with irregular underwater ground.

  • the temporary structure of the large-caliber casing type and the method of constructing the same according to the present invention have the following effects.
  • the large-caliber casing work can be carried out in the minimized field work because sheet piles are installed after being prefabricated. Accordingly, the present invention can reduce the construction period of time and construction expenses in relation with foundation work of the underwater structure.
  • the underwater large-caliber casing is constructed in such a manner that the sheet piles and the steel pipes are first installed in an assembled state and H-piles are installed inside the steel pipes of the assembled body, there is little possibility to cause a construction error, and as a result, the present invention can enhance the construction quality due to a schemeful construction.
  • the present invention can install sheet piles while coping with an irregular underwater ground even though the surface of a hard layer (or a rock layer) on the seabed or a riverbed is in a very irregular state, it can prevent a collapse of soil during excavation of the underwater ground inside the casing for laying the foundation.
  • the present invention provides a temporary batch-installation-type underwater large-caliber casing structure using sheet piles including: steel pipes having a plurality of claw connectors disposed on the outer peripheral surface thereof, the steel pipes being spaced apart from each other at predetermined intervals and installed in the ground under water in such a manner that the claw connectors are opposed to each other; sheet piles having a plurality of claw connectors disposed at end portions thereof, the sheet piles being installed in such a way as to close spaces between the steel pipes and being embedded in the ground under water while engaging with the steel pipes through the claw connectors; a horizontal strut fixed inside or outside the casing to horizontally connect the steel pipes; and center piles respectively inserted into the steel pipes and fixed to the steel pipes while being embedded into the ground under water.
  • the present invention provides a construction method of a temporary batch-installation-type underwater large-caliber casing structure including the steps of: (S11) assembling steel pipes, sheet piles and a horizontal strut in such a manner that the sheet piles are not located lower than the steel pipes; (S12) carrying the assembled body of the step (S11) into a construction field and seating the steel pipes on the ground under water; (S13) inserting and driving center piles into the steel pipes so as to embed them into the ground under water; (S14) fixing the center piles to the steel pipes; and (S15) driving the sheet piles so as to embed them into the ground under water.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 are a plan view and a perspective view of a temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure according to the present invention.
  • the underwater large-caliber casing is a temporary structure for preventing a collapse or an inflow of an earth layer during excavation of the ground for laying a foundation in the process of building an underwater structure, such as a dam, a bridge, and an offshore wind structure under water, such as sea and river.
  • the underwater large-caliber casing assembling structure includes steel pipes 10, sheet piles 20, a horizontal strut 30, and center piles 50.

  • a plurality of the steel pipes 10 are arranged at predetermined intervals and are seated on the bottom under water in such a manner that the claw connectors 13 are opposed to each other.
  • Such steel pipes 10 serve as a guide pipe of the center piles 50 respectively inserted and mounted inside the steel pipes.
  • the sheet piles 20 are sheet type pile members which respectively have claw connectors 23 disposed at ends thereof so as to be joined to each other through a claw connection, and are generally the same as typical sheet piles used for retaining walls or cofferdams.
  • the sheet piles 20 are arranged in mutual claw connection one by one and are installed under the ground while being driven into the ground.
  • the sheet piles 20 are embedded and installed to the underwater ground while being engaged and connected with the steel pipes 10 through the claw connectors 13 and 23 between the steel pipes 10 so as to form a casing of a closed structure together with the steel pipes 10.
  • the sheet piles 20 are joined one another in engagement with one another and with the steel pipes 10 so as to close spaces between the steel pipes 10 by the sheet piles 20.
  • the horizontal strut 30 is fixedly mounted while horizontally connecting the steel pipes 10 inside or outside the casing.
  • a plurality of the steel pipes 10 are restricted and reinforced into one body by the horizontal strut 30.
  • the horizontal strut 30 includes an outer strut 31 which is continuously mounted from the outside of the casing.

  • the center pile 50 is inserted into the steel pipe 10 and fixed to the steel pipe 10 while being embedded to the underwater ground.
  • the center piles 50 are embedded and mounted in the underwater ground together with the sheet piles 20 and serve to stably settle the temporary casing structure to the underwater ground. It is possible that the center piles 50 are embedded deeper than the sheet piles 20 if possible because the center piles 50 are H beams.
  • the center piles 50 are properly adopted from general steel members, such as H-shaped steels, and FIG. 1 illustrates the center piles 50 having the H-shaped steels. Meanwhile, the center piles 50 are fixed to the steel pipes 10, and for this, couplers may be used properly.
  • the underwater large-caliber casing according to the present invention is the temporary structure which will be demolished before long, it is preferable that the couplers are mounted by a wedge type fixing method or a bolt fastening method so as to be easily attached and detached rather than the welding method.
  • the temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure is finished.
  • the casing of the closed structure is completed through the claw connection of the steel pipes 10 and the sheet piles 20, and the temporary structure can keep a stable construction state through settlement of the center piles 50 and the sheet piles 20 in the underwater ground.
  • the temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure according to the present invention may have a circular closed structure or a polygonal closed structure.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show a temporary casing structure of the polygonal closed structure.
  • the steel pipes 10 are arranged in such a way as to be located at edges of a polygon and the sheet piles 20 are arranged in such a way as to be located as sides of the polygon to thereby complete the polygonal closed structure.
  • the polygonal closed structure can be easily completed when general straight steel members are applied as the horizontal struts 30 as they are.
  • the horizontal strut 30 has inner and outer struts 31 and 32 which are spaced apart from each other and respectively mounted in parallel with each other inside and outside the casing, and the sheet piles 20 are contactingly mounted between the inner and outer struts 31 and 32.
  • Such an installation structure of the horizontal strut 30 is favorable in securing a stable reinforcing structure by the inner and outer struts 31 and 32 and keeping perpendicularity of the sheet piles 20 during the process of embedding and installing the sheet piles 20.
  • FIG. 3 is a detailed diagram showing a connected state of a steel pipe and a sheet pile of the temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure according to the present invention.
  • the steel pipes 10 are formed by properly transforming conventional steel pipes.
  • the steel pipe 10 includes: a steel pipe body 11; a wing sheet 12 welded on the outer peripheral surface of the steel pipe body 11; and a claw connector 13 formed by an end portion of the wing sheet 12 curved.
  • the sheet pile 20 is divided in half and joined to both sides of the steel pipe body 11, such that the steel pipe 10 having the claw connector 13 is completed.

Now, the construction method of the temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure according to the present invention will be described.
  • the steel pipes 10, the sheet piles 20 and the horizontal strut 30 are assembled, and the vertical struts 40 may be further assembled in the case that the vertical struts 40 are installed (S11, See FIG. 4 ).
  • the sheet piles 20 are equal to or longer than the steel pipes 10, and preferably, are not located lower than the steel pipes 10. The reason is not to be interfered by the sheet piles 20 and to stably install the steel pipes 10 in the ground under water.
  • the assembled body assembled in the step S11 is carried into a construction field, and the steel pipes 10 are seated and installed in the ground under water (S12, See FIG. 5 ).
  • the steel pipes 10 are installed while being lifted by a crane, and the assembled body is held not to be moved after the installation.
  • the center piles 50 of the H-shaped steels are inserted and driven into the steel pipes 10 so as to be embedded in the ground under water (S13, See FIG. 6 ).

  • drilling water is supplied to the inside of the temporary casing structure in a reverse cycle, and then, drilling water and rock fragments are discharged out through a drill pipe.
  • the mono-pile (MP) is inserted and installed inside an excavation hole ( FIG.
  • FIG. 9(b) various grouting materials, such as concrete, mortar, or other filling materials, fill between the mono-pile and the excavation hole ( FIG. 9(c) ), and then, the temporary casing structure is removed ( FIG. 9(d) ).
  • the removal work is carried out in reverse. In other words, first, the sheet piles 20 are drawn out from the ground under water, the fixed state of the center piles 50 is released to draw out the center piles 50 from the ground under water and remove the center piles 50 from the steel pipes 10, and then, the assembled body of the steel pipes 10, the sheet piles 20 and the horizontal strut 30 is lifted and carried. Through the above process, the underwater structure like the mono-pile can be constructed completely.
  • FIG. 10 illustrates a construction sequence of a pier under water.
  • the temporary underwater large-caliber casing structure is constructed at the construction position.
  • water is supplied to the inside of the temporary casing structure by a water lift pump ( FIG.10(a) ), and then, when the underwater ground is exposed inside the temporary casing structure, a foundation of the pier (P1) and a pier body (P2) are constructed in the ground under water (FIGS. 19(b) and (c)).
  • the temporary casing structure is removed ( FIG. 10(e) ). In this instance, the removal of the temporary structure is the same as the construction process of the mono-pile described above. Through the above process, the underwater structure such as the pier of the bridge is constructed completely.
