Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for testing the load-bearing capacity of a foundation.
- the invention relates to a method in which the values of the various loads with which the foundation is successively loaded during the process, and the loading times of the various loads, are determined on the basis of the reaction of the foundation with the previous load.
- Foundations form the structural and static transition between the structure and the ground.
- the most important task of the foundations is therefore to absorb loads from the structure and to pass them on to the subsoil without the resulting compression of the soil leading to disadvantages for the structure or the environment.
- the load-bearing capacity of the installed foundations is accordingly an important safety parameter and must be checked as precisely as possible.
- foundations can be rammed into the ground, screwed in or inserted, for example in the case of pile foundations, screw foundations or prefabricated foundations or in-situ concrete foundations.
- Ground screws also known as ground screws, usually made of steel, are an interesting alternative to concrete foundations. Their length can vary from a few tens of centimeters to several meters.
- screw foundations have a shape comparable to a normal screw, ie they consist of an elongated body in the form of a cylinder with a part which includes an external thread. Screw foundations are often designed as a hollow body, which is closed with a flange.
- Screw foundations are increasingly being used in a wide variety of situations, for example as foundations for noise barriers, solar panels, or for small or medium-sized houses.
- ground screws must be checked for their load-bearing capacity after they have been placed in the ground.
- the load-bearing capacity test of foundations is mostly carried out using static, static or dynamic test methods.
- the reaction of the foundation such as the displacement path, the displacement speed, the acceleration or the occurrence of vibrations when a test load is applied, is recorded.
- these procedures are long and complex. Faster methods, especially dynamic methods, are often too imprecise.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of overcoming the aforementioned disadvantages and introducing a To provide a method for the load-bearing capacity test of foundations, which enables more precise and faster tests.
- the load-bearing capacity test of a foundation can be carried out quickly and precisely.
- the increment and loading time for the next load level are determined based on the recorded reaction of the foundation at the previous load.
- the method according to the invention represents a feedback method in which the information obtained in the previous stage contributes to the determination of the level of exposure in the next stage. In this way, for example, large increments and short loading times can be selected if the reaction to the previous load indicates a high load-bearing capacity.
- the first load is determined on the basis of the measured introduction parameters and / or the predetermined load transfer.
- the method is continued until the recorded reaction of the foundation due to the load is equal to or greater than a reaction limit value.
- the response limit so when the process should / can be stopped can either be predetermined, i.e. before the process begins, or determined on the basis of, for example, the recorded installation parameters or reactions of the foundation at the respective load levels in the course of the process.
- the method according to the invention also represents a feedback method in this respect.
- several reaction limit values can also be predetermined or determined in the course of the method. For example, a lower and an upper limit value can be determined. The process is continued until one of these limit values is reached.
- the foundation is a screw foundation. This means that the foundation can be simply screwed into the ground. Compared to ramming, turning has the advantage that the introduction process can be carried out more precisely and steadily. In addition, additional relevant introduction parameters can be determined during the screwing in, which can be included for the determination of the first load and the first loading time.
- the introduction parameters include the screwing-in torque and the screwing-in path.
- This enables a torque-displacement curve to be created for the foundation to be tested. It could be shown that there is a close connection between the torque-displacement curve of a foundation and its load-bearing capacity exists. Therefore, based on this scientifically proven relationship, a well-founded and optimal choice can be made for the first load and the first load time. This leads to a reduction in the number of load levels and thus to a reduction in the overall duration of the procedure.
- the relevant information for determining the first load and the first loading time can be extracted from the torque-displacement curve in various ways.
- the first and second derivatives of the torque-displacement curve can provide highly relevant information. It is particularly important to note that depending on the situation in which the foundation is used, the interpretation of the torque-displacement curve may not be the same.
- a torque-displacement curve of a foundation that is to be used in a situation where it has to withstand a compressive load should not be the same as that of a foundation that has to carry a tensile load. This must be taken into account when determining the first load and the first loading time based on the torque-displacement curve.
- force sensors can be used directly, which are attached to the machine that is used to screw in the foundations.
- a direct measurement by force sensors that are installed on the foundation itself is also possible.
- an indirect measurement of the torque which is based on the measurement of the current (electrical built-in devices) or the pressure (liquid-based rotating devices), taking into account drive-specific multipliers.
- the turning path can also be measured very easily by means known to a person skilled in the art.
- each foundation can be assigned a torque-displacement curve. This can be beneficial in the event of future problems, as it enables an even better understanding of the complex relationship between insertion torque and load capacity.
- the introduction parameters include the angular speed of rotation. Using the angular speed and the winding gradient of the foundation, a turning path can be determined and compared with the actually measured turning path. This enables a so-called slip analysis to be carried out. This ensures that if the foundation slips during the turning process, this is taken into account when determining the values of the first load and the first loading time.
- the introduction parameters include the maximum value of the insertion torque. It could be shown that a high correlation also exists between the maximum insertion torque value and the load-bearing capacity of a foundation. This allows the first load and the first load time to be determined even better.
- the introduction parameters include the final torque value. This is particularly advantageous for determining the first load and the first loading time for a foundation that has to absorb a compressive load.
- a low final torque value means nothing other than that the top of the foundation is in a less stable soil. This therefore indicates a lower load-bearing capacity in the event of a pressure load.
- the introduction parameters include the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral. It could be shown that there is a particularly high correlation between the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral and the load-bearing capacity of a foundation. With the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral, the determination of the first load and the first loading time can therefore be carried out even more precisely and on a more well-founded basis.
- the amount of the torque-displacement curve integral is usually determined over the entire screw-in displacement and taken into account for the determination of the first load and the first loading time.
- the loads are dynamic and / or static.
- the test time can be massively shortened again by eliminating holding times.
- statements about expansions and accelerations in the case of the dynamic forces acting are possible.
- Statnamic loads represent a combination of static and dynamic loads. As a result, the static and dynamic behavior can be recorded in a single loading process.
- the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of the shape of the foundation. This allows these parameters to be determined better.
- the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of the load to be carried. This allows these parameters to be determined better.
- the direction and / or the type of load to be carried are advantageously taken into account.
- the type of load to be borne is used for For example, understood what permanent load the foundation has to bear or whether and to what extent the foundation is additionally loaded with gusts of wind, i.e. with temporary loads.
- the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of previous soil assessments. This enables these parameters to be determined even better.
- the recorded reaction comprises the speed of displacement of the foundation. In this way, the increments and the next loading times can be determined on the basis of the recorded displacement speed of the foundation.
- the recorded reaction comprises the displacement path of the foundation. In this way, the increments and the next loading times can be determined on the basis of the recorded displacement path of the foundation.
- the recorded reaction comprises the direction of displacement of the foundation.
- the increments and the next loading times can be determined based on the recorded direction of movement of the foundation.
- the recorded reaction comprises the creep factor. This allows the increments and the next Load times can be determined based on the recorded creep factor of the foundation.
- the reaction limit value corresponds to a displacement direction, a displacement speed, a displacement path, a creep factor, a load or a combination thereof. This will carry out the procedure until the most relevant response limit for the foundation to be tested is reached.
- the reaction limit value is determined on the basis of the introduction parameters.
- the reaction limit value can be optimally determined and the process can only be carried out for as long as necessary. Thanks, for example, to the high correlation between the amount of the torque-displacement integral and the load-bearing capacity of the foundation, it is not necessary to carry out the process until the foundation is loaded with the actual load to be carried. It is sufficient to measure the reaction of the foundation with several smaller loads and to extrapolate the load-bearing capacity of the foundation from this. The duration of the entire procedure can thus be reduced considerably.
- the method is implemented by a computer. This means that the entire process can be fully automated and carried out more quickly.
- the reactions of the foundation to the various loads can be analyzed using suitable algorithms, and the increment and the load time for the next load level can be determined quickly, well-founded and precisely.
- Figure 1 shows different models of screw foundations, the length of which can vary from a few tens of centimeters to several meters.
- screw foundations have a shape comparable to a normal screw, ie they consist of an elongated body in the form of a cylinder with a part which includes an external thread. Screw foundations are often designed as a hollow body, which is closed with a flange.
- FIG 2 a typical driving process of a screw foundation into the ground B is illustrated schematically.
- various penetration parameters such as the screwing-in path W and the screwing-in torque D are continuously determined by means known to a person skilled in the art.
- the penetration parameters can also include the penetration force, frequency, impulse, expansions and accelerations in addition to the penetration path.
- Figure 3 illustrates a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention for testing the load-bearing capacity of a foundation, in which the foundation is a screw foundation.
- the method according to the invention begins with the introduction, here the turning, of the foundation into the ground. While the foundation is being screwed in, the screw-in path and screw-in torque are continuously determined. It is of course also possible to determine other relevant introduction parameters such as, for example, the angular speed of rotation.
- the driving of the foundation can include breaks, interruptions or reverse rotation phases, during which the reaction of the foundation is recorded. During a break, for example, the inertia behavior and, when turning backwards, information about static and sliding friction of the foundation shell or the tip can be determined. These recorded parameters can also represent part of the introduction parameters.
- the value of the first load L1 and the first loading time t1 are determined on the basis of the determined introduction parameters.
- the foundation is then loaded with the load L1.
- the reaction of the foundation is continuously recorded.
- the displacement path and displacement speed of the foundation are measured.
- the reaction of the foundation can also include the creep factor of the foundation under load L1, or the displacement direction (horizontal / vertical).
- the loading with the load L1 is maintained until a predetermined response is reached or during the first loading time t1.
- the predetermined reaction can correspond, for example, to a specific displacement speed or a specific displacement path.
- the load with the load L1 is maintained until the displacement speed has reached the value zero, i.e. when the foundation no longer moves. If the foundation has never moved due to the load L1, this load stage is of course canceled after the load time t1, since it is obvious that the load can be increased.
- the predetermined reaction limit value can, however, also be a combination of different and any number of values, such as, for example, creep factor and displacement path.
- the increment I1 and the load time t2 are determined for the next load level.
- the determination of these values is based on the recorded reaction of the foundation due to the previous load. As indicated in the figure, there is therefore a feedback between two subsequent load levels. For example, if the load L1 has caused no or only a small displacement path of the foundation and / or the creep curve is close to 0, the increment I1 can be selected to be large and the loading time t2 to be small. On the other hand, if the reaction in the first load stage was large, the increment I1 should be selected to be rather small.
- the reaction of the foundation is continuously recorded.
- the loading with the load L2 is maintained until a predetermined response is reached or during the loading time t2.
- the predetermined response of the foundation can correspond to different parameters or a combination of any number of different parameters.
- a new increment and a new loading time are then determined based on the reaction of the foundation at load L2. As in Figure 3 shown, the process is continued until a reaction limit is reached.
- the reaction limit value can be both a specific load and a displacement speed, a displacement path, a displacement direction, a loading time, a creep factor, an elasticity / restoring force after unloading, or a combination thereof.
- the reaction limit values can be dependent on the acting load, the application parameters or the previously determined soil properties. Or the reaction limit value is determined based on the reaction behavior in the previous stress levels. Any combination of these factors can also define the response limit.
- the method according to the invention can be used both in the case of a load test, for example a pull-out test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which no predefined load is to be removed, but rather the load-transfer behavior is to be checked, and a quality test, for Example of a tensile test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which a predefined load transfer, for example during an acceptance test, is to be checked.
- a load test for example a pull-out test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which no predefined load is to be removed, but rather the load-transfer behavior is to be checked
- a quality test for Example of a tensile test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which a predefined load transfer, for example during an acceptance test, is to be checked.
- an engineer usually determines which load transfer device the foundation must be able to carry. The method according to the invention is thus carried out until the load with which the foundation is loaded is equal to or greater than the load transfer, or until
- the response limit value can thus correspond, for example, to a combination of the load transfer and the creep factor. It is known that a creep factor greater than two corresponds to a ground failure. It should be noted that it is not always necessary to wait until the creep factor is actually above two in order to be able to determine that the breaking load has been reached. In many cases, an analysis of the behavior of the creep factor over time is much more meaningful than the value of the factor (see below for a discussion of the creep factor). In addition, as is generally known, the displacement can already adequately describe a fracture behavior.
- the method according to the invention is carried out until the ground break is caused or until a certain load is reached, which enables the load-bearing capacity of the foundation to be determined by extrapolation. It was shown that there is a high correlation between the behavior of a foundation with small loads and the actual load-bearing capacity of the same foundation under defined boundary conditions. In such cases it is not always necessary to actually achieve the breaking load in order to determine the load-bearing capacity of the foundation. It has been scientifically shown that it is then sufficient to record the reaction of the foundation due to several small loads in order to be able to extrapolate the load-bearing capacity of the foundation.
- the extrapolation of the load-bearing capacity can, for example, be made on the basis of the measured application parameters or the comparison of the reaction behavior and the application parameters with comparable data sets. Specifically, it could be shown, for example, that there is a close relationship between the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral and the Breaking load of a foundation. Therefore, mathematical models have been developed which allow the extrapolation of the load-bearing capacity of a foundation based on the reaction of the foundation under one or more small loads and with the aid of the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral. Extensive experimental tests of these models have shown that it is actually possible to sufficiently "predict" the load-bearing capacity of a foundation in this way.
- Figure 7 shows schematically how the time sequence of the method according to the invention (upper part of FIG Figure 7 ) and the reaction of the foundation (lower part of the Figure 7 ) due to the different loads.
- so-called relief stages ie stages in which the load is reduced compared to the previous stage, can be introduced between two load levels.
- the reaction of the foundation during these relief stages can provide important information for determining the next increment and the next loading time.
- Figure 8 shows real curves of a load-bearing capacity test of a screw foundation according to the present inventive method.
- the upper curve shows the recorded displacement that the foundation experiences due to the various loads.
- the lower curve shows the development of the load during the test procedure. As can be seen, both the increments and the loading times are different for the various loading levels. During this procedure, relief stages were performed between two stress levels.
- FIG. 6 An example of a course of a load-bearing capacity test according to a method known from the prior art.
- the loading times and the increments are constant throughout the test. Since the breaking load must not be "missed", small increments and long loading times are usually chosen, which significantly increases the duration of the test.
- the first load L1 and the first loading time t1 are determined on the basis of the measured application parameters and / or the load transfer.
- Particularly meaningful parameters are the screw-in torque and the screw-in path of the foundation.
- a so-called screw-in torque-path curve can be created with the determined screw-in torque and screw-in path.
- the information that can be extracted from this curve is therefore particularly suitable for determining the first load L1 and the first loading time t1.
- the first load L1 of the method according to the invention can already be selected to be high without the risk of "missing" the breaking load.
- the determination of the first load L1 can be based, for example, on the amount of the insertion torque-displacement curve integral, the insertion torque maximum value, the insertion torque end value, or a combination of these values.
- Other parameters that can contribute to the determination of the first load L1 and the first loading time t1 include the screwing-in time and the screwing-in angular speed.
- subsoil information such as soil parameters determined in advance by subsoil characterizations, can contribute to the determination of the first load L1 and the first loading time t1.
- the determination of the first load L1 can additionally or alternatively be made on the basis of the load transfer, ie the load to be carried. This is particularly relevant in the case of an acceptance test in which an engineer defines the minimum load to be borne.
- the method according to the invention can thus start with a load L1 which corresponds to a certain fraction, for example half or three quarters, of the load transfer. It is even conceivable that the method begins with a first load L1 which is equal to or greater than the load transfer. In such a case, two response limits, an "upper” and a "lower", can be predetermined.
- a first limit value could, for example, consist of a combination of a creep behavior to be fulfilled (creep factor must always remain below 1 and the first derivative must be positive, i.e. approach 0) and a maximum Shift (the shift must not exceed 1.0mm) can be defined.
- the fulfillment of this “upper reaction limit value” would fulfill the engineering acceptance test with regard to the required load-bearing capacity at the maximum permitted deformation.
- a “lower response limit” could be used to define non-compliance with the acceptance test.
- the combination of the creep factor is greater than 1 and the first derivative of the creep curve is negative (the creep factor is "increasing") or exceeds a maximum displacement of the foundation of 4mm, this means nothing other than that the engineering acceptance test has not been met.
- the increments and the loading times are determined based on the reaction of the foundation at the previous load level.
- the reaction of the foundation can correspond to the displacement path and the displacement speed, for example. But other parameters such as the direction of displacement (vertical / horizontal) can be included in the reaction.
- the displacement speed i.e. the displacement path per unit of time
- a so-called creep analysis can be carried out. Such an analysis is exemplified in Figure 9 in which the displacement of thirteen (1 to 13) subsequent load levels of a load test are shown logarithmically as a function of the load time.
- the analysis of the creep behavior of the foundation at the The respective load levels of the method according to the invention can therefore represent the basis for determining the increment and the loading time for the next load level.
- the continuous recording of the creep factor during the load can be used to determine how long the load should be sustained. For example, the first and / or second derivatives of the creep curves can be used for this.
- the subsequent application of the last load level 13 causes a creep behavior with a slope k> 2 and thus an actual indentation of the foundation due to a broken ground, which means nothing other than that the foundation fails.
- This "visual" observation described here can be made better by a continuous creep curve analysis by looking at the first and second derivatives thereof. Based on this analysis, it is possible to recognize early on that the loads 1-9 are not critical for the foundation and can therefore be loaded with the next load level.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Tragfähigkeitsprüfung eines Fundaments. Insbesondere bezieht sich die Erfindung auf ein Verfahren, bei welchem die Werte der verschiedenen Lasten, mit welchen das Fundament während dem Verfahren sukzessiv belastet wird, und die Belastungszeiten der verschiedenen Lasten, aufgrund der Reaktion des Fundaments bei der vorherigen Last ermittelt werden.The present invention relates to a method for testing the load-bearing capacity of a foundation. In particular, the invention relates to a method in which the values of the various loads with which the foundation is successively loaded during the process, and the loading times of the various loads, are determined on the basis of the reaction of the foundation with the previous load.
Fundamente bilden den konstruktiven und statischen Übergang zwischen Bauwerk und Boden. Die wichtigste Aufgabe der Fundamente ist es daher, Lasten aus dem Bauwerk aufzunehmen und an den Baugrund weiterzugeben, ohne dass die daraus resultierende Kompression des Bodens zu Nachteilen für das Bauwerk oder die Umgebung führt. Die Tragfähigkeit der eingebauten Fundamente ist dementsprechend ein wichtiger Sicherheitsparameter und muss so genau wie möglich geprüft werden. Fundamente können, abhängig von ihrer Bauform, in den Boden eingerammt, eingedreht oder eingesetzt werden, wie zum Beispiel im Fall von Rammfundamenten, Drehfundamenten oder Fertigfundamenten beziehungsweise Ortsbetonfundamenten.Foundations form the structural and static transition between the structure and the ground. The most important task of the foundations is therefore to absorb loads from the structure and to pass them on to the subsoil without the resulting compression of the soil leading to disadvantages for the structure or the environment. The load-bearing capacity of the installed foundations is accordingly an important safety parameter and must be checked as precisely as possible. Depending on their design, foundations can be rammed into the ground, screwed in or inserted, for example in the case of pile foundations, screw foundations or prefabricated foundations or in-situ concrete foundations.
Schraubfundamente, auch Bodenschrauben genannt, normalerweise aus Stahl, stellen eine interessante Alternative zu Fundamenten aus Beton dar. Ihre Länge kann von einigen zehn Zentimetern bis zu mehreren Metern variieren. Allgemein betrachtet haben Schraubfundamente eine mit einer normalen Schraube vergleichbare Form, d.h. sie bestehen aus einem länglichen Körper in Form eines Zylinders mit einem Teil, welcher ein Aussengewinde umfasst. Schraubfundamente sind oft als Hohlkörper ausgebildet, welcher mit einem Flansch abgeschlossen ist.Ground screws, also known as ground screws, usually made of steel, are an interesting alternative to concrete foundations. Their length can vary from a few tens of centimeters to several meters. Generally considered, screw foundations have a shape comparable to a normal screw, ie they consist of an elongated body in the form of a cylinder with a part which includes an external thread. Screw foundations are often designed as a hollow body, which is closed with a flange.
Der grosse Vorteil von Schraubfundamenten liegt darin, dass sie sofort belastbar, vollständig rückbaubar und wiederverwendbar sind. Darüber hinaus müssen keine Aushärtezeiten abgewartet werden. Schraubfundamente werden zunehmend in den unterschiedlichsten Situationen eingesetzt, zum Beispiel als Fundamente für Lärmschutzwände, Solarpanels, oder für kleine oder mittelgrosse Häuser.The great advantage of screw foundations is that they can be loaded immediately, can be completely dismantled and reused. In addition, there is no need to wait for curing times. Screw foundations are increasingly being used in a wide variety of situations, for example as foundations for noise barriers, solar panels, or for small or medium-sized houses.
Wie alle Fundamente, müssen Schraubfundamente nach ihrem Einbringen in den Boden auf Ihre Tragfähigkeit geprüft werden. Die Tragfähigkeitsprüfung von Fundamenten erfolgt heutzutage meist durch statische, statnamische oder dynamische Prüfverfahren. Dabei werden die Reaktion des Fundaments wie zum Beispiel der Verschiebungsweg, die Verschiebegeschwindigkeit, die Beschleunigung oder das Auftreten von Schwingungen bei der Einwirkung einer Prüflast aufgezeichnet. Diese Verfahren sind leider lang und aufwändig. Schnellere Verfahren, insbesondere dynamische Verfahren, sind oft zu ungenau.Like all foundations, ground screws must be checked for their load-bearing capacity after they have been placed in the ground. Nowadays, the load-bearing capacity test of foundations is mostly carried out using static, static or dynamic test methods. The reaction of the foundation, such as the displacement path, the displacement speed, the acceleration or the occurrence of vibrations when a test load is applied, is recorded. Unfortunately, these procedures are long and complex. Faster methods, especially dynamic methods, are often too imprecise.
Verfahren zur Tragfähigkeitsprüfung von Fundamenten, bei welchem Fundamente mit vor Versuchsbeginn definierter Lastabfolge belastet werden, bis entweder ein gewisser Lastabtrag oder ein sogenannter Bodenbruch erreicht ist, sind aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt, siehe z.B.
Ausgehend vom Stand der Technik liegt der vorliegenden Erfindung daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, vorbesagte Nachteile zu überwinden und ein Verfahren zur Tragfähigkeitsprüfung von Fundamenten zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches genauere und schnellere Prüfungen ermöglicht.Proceeding from the prior art, the present invention is therefore based on the object of overcoming the aforementioned disadvantages and introducing a To provide a method for the load-bearing capacity test of foundations, which enables more precise and faster tests.
Gemäss der vorliegenden Erfindung werden diese Ziele vor allem durch die Elemente des unabhängigen Anspruchs erreicht. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen gehen ausserdem aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen hervor.According to the present invention, these objectives are achieved primarily through the elements of the independent claim. Further advantageous embodiments also emerge from the dependent claims.
Insbesondere werden die Ziele der vorliegenden Erfindung durch ein Verfahren zur Tragfähigkeitsprüfung eines Fundaments erreicht, welches die folgenden Schritte umfasst:
- a. Einbringen des Fundaments in den Boden und Ermittlung von Einbringparametern,
- b. Ermittlung einer ersten Last und einer ersten Belastungszeit,
- c. Belastung des Fundaments mit der ersten Last,

- h. Aufrechterhaltung der Belastung mit der zweiten Last während einer zweiten Belastungszeit oder bis eine vorbestimmte Reaktion erreicht ist, und
- i. Wiederholung der Schritte f bis h bis die aufgezeichnete Reaktion gleich wie oder grösser als ein Reaktionsgrenzwert ist,
- a. Placing the foundation in the ground and determining placement parameters,
- b. Determination of a first load and a first load time,
- c. Loading the foundation with the first load,
- d. Continuous recording of the reaction that the foundation experiences due to the first load,
- e. Maintaining the load with the first load during the first load time or until a predetermined response is achieved,
- f. loading the foundation with a second load which is one increment greater than the first load,
- G. Continuous recording of the reaction that the foundation experiences due to the second load,
- H. Maintaining the exposure to the second load for a second exposure time or until a predetermined response is achieved, and
- i. Repeat steps f to h until the recorded reaction is equal to or greater than a reaction limit value,
Dank des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens kann die Tragfähigkeitsprüfung eines Fundaments schnell und präzise erfolgen. Im Gegensatz zu den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahren, bei welchen vorbestimmte Inkremente und/oder Belastungszeiten gebraucht werden, werden Inkrement und Belastungszeit für die nächste Laststufe jeweils aufgrund der aufgezeichneten Reaktion des Fundaments bei der vorherigen Last ermittelt. In anderen Worten stellt das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren ein rückgekoppeltes Verfahren dar, bei welchem die gewonnenen Informationen bei der vorherigen Stufe für die Ermittlung der Belastungshöhe bei der nächsten Stufe beitragen. Dadurch können zum Beispiel grosse Inkremente und kurze Belastungszeiten gewählt werden, wenn die Reaktion bei der vorherigen Last auf eine hohe Tragfähigkeit hindeutet. Darüber hinaus wird die erste Last aufgrund der gemessenen Einbringparameter und/oder des vorbestimmten Lastabtrags ermittelt. Dadurch kann eine grosse erste Last ermittelt werden, ohne das Risiko, dass diese erste Last schon über der Bruchlast liegt. Somit ergibt sich eine Reduktion der Anzahl an Laststufen und der Belastungszeiten und demzufolge des ganzen Prüfverfahrens. Für den Kunden entfallen demzufolge durch die Beschleunigung des Prüfverfahrens Kosten.Thanks to the method according to the invention, the load-bearing capacity test of a foundation can be carried out quickly and precisely. In contrast to the methods known from the prior art, in which predetermined increments and / or loading times are required, the increment and loading time for the next load level are determined based on the recorded reaction of the foundation at the previous load. In other words, the method according to the invention represents a feedback method in which the information obtained in the previous stage contributes to the determination of the level of exposure in the next stage. In this way, for example, large increments and short loading times can be selected if the reaction to the previous load indicates a high load-bearing capacity. In addition, the first load is determined on the basis of the measured introduction parameters and / or the predetermined load transfer. As a result, a large first load can be determined without the risk that this first load is already above the breaking load. This results in a reduction in the number of load levels and the load times and consequently in the entire test procedure. For the customer there are consequently no costs due to the acceleration of the test procedure.
Darüber hinaus wird das Verfahren weiter geführt bis die aufgezeichnete Reaktion des Fundaments aufgrund der Belastung gleich wie oder grösser als ein Reaktionsgrenzwert ist. Der Reaktionsgrenzwert, also wann das Verfahren gestoppt werden soll/kann, kann entweder vorbestimmt werden, das heisst bevor das Verfahren anfängt, oder aufgrund zum Beispiel der aufgezeichneten Einbringparameter oder Reaktionen des Fundaments bei den jeweiligen Laststufen im Verlauf des Verfahrens ermittelt. Dementsprechend stellt das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren auch in dieser Hinsicht ein rückgekoppeltes Verfahren dar. Selbstverständlich können auch mehrere Reaktionsgrenzwerte vorbestimmt oder im Verlauf des Verfahrens ermittelt werden. Zum Beispiel können ein unterer und ein oberer Grenzwert ermittelt werden. Das Verfahren wird weitergeführt bis ein dieser Grenzwerte erreicht ist.In addition, the method is continued until the recorded reaction of the foundation due to the load is equal to or greater than a reaction limit value. The response limit, so when the process should / can be stopped can either be predetermined, i.e. before the process begins, or determined on the basis of, for example, the recorded installation parameters or reactions of the foundation at the respective load levels in the course of the process. Accordingly, the method according to the invention also represents a feedback method in this respect. Of course, several reaction limit values can also be predetermined or determined in the course of the method. For example, a lower and an upper limit value can be determined. The process is continued until one of these limit values is reached.
In einer ersten bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens wird vor einem Verfahrensschritt, bei welchem die Last durch ein Inkrement erhöht wird, ein zusätzlicher Verfahrensschritt durchgeführt, bei welchem die Last auf dem Fundament reduziert wird. Dadurch können Inkremente und Belastungszeiten besser ermittelt werden. Insbesondere kann die Reaktion des Fundaments während diesen sogenannten Entlastungstufen für die Ermittlung dieser Parameter miteinbezogen werden.In a first preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, before a method step in which the load is increased by an increment, an additional method step is carried out in which the load on the foundation is reduced. In this way, increments and load times can be better determined. In particular, the reaction of the foundation during these so-called relief stages can be included in the determination of these parameters.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens ist das Fundament ein Schraubfundament. Dadurch kann das Einbringen des Fundaments in den Boden einfach durch Eindrehung erfolgen. Eindrehung hat gegenüber Einrammen den Vorteil, dass der Einbringvorgang genauer und stetiger erfolgen kann. Darüber hinaus können bei der Eindrehung zusätzliche relevante Einbringparameter ermittelt werden, welche für die Ermittlung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit miteinbezogen werden können.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the foundation is a screw foundation. This means that the foundation can be simply screwed into the ground. Compared to ramming, turning has the advantage that the introduction process can be carried out more precisely and steadily. In addition, additional relevant introduction parameters can be determined during the screwing in, which can be included for the determination of the first load and the first loading time.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfassen die Einbringparameter das Eindrehmoment und den Eindrehweg. Dadurch kann eine Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve für das zu prüfende Fundament erstellt werden. Es konnte nämlich gezeigt werden, dass es einen engen Zusammenhang zwischen der Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve eines Fundaments und dessen Tragfähigkeit existiert. Daher kann aufgrund dieses wissenschaftlich nachgewiesenen Zusammenhangs eine fundierte und optimale Wahl für die erste Last und die erste Belastungszeit getroffen werden. Dies führt zur Reduktion der Anzahl an Laststufen und somit zur Reduktion der gesamten Verfahrensdauer.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the introduction parameters include the screwing-in torque and the screwing-in path. This enables a torque-displacement curve to be created for the foundation to be tested. It could be shown that there is a close connection between the torque-displacement curve of a foundation and its load-bearing capacity exists. Therefore, based on this scientifically proven relationship, a well-founded and optimal choice can be made for the first load and the first load time. This leads to a reduction in the number of load levels and thus to a reduction in the overall duration of the procedure.
Die relevanten Informationen für die Ermittlung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit können auf verschiedene Art und Weise aus der Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve extrahiert werden. Zum Beispiel können die ersten und zweiten Ableitungen der Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve hochrelevante Informationen liefern. Es ist besonders wichtig zu beachten, dass je nach Situation, in der das Fundament verwendet wird, die Interpretation der Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve nicht die gleiche ist. Beispielsweise soll eine Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve eines Fundaments, das in einer Situation verwendet werden soll, in der es einer Druckbelastung standhalten muss, nicht die gleiche sein wie bei einem Fundament, das eine Zugbelastung tragen muss. Dies muss für die Ermittlung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit aufgrund der Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve berücksichtig werden.The relevant information for determining the first load and the first loading time can be extracted from the torque-displacement curve in various ways. For example, the first and second derivatives of the torque-displacement curve can provide highly relevant information. It is particularly important to note that depending on the situation in which the foundation is used, the interpretation of the torque-displacement curve may not be the same. For example, a torque-displacement curve of a foundation that is to be used in a situation where it has to withstand a compressive load should not be the same as that of a foundation that has to carry a tensile load. This must be taken into account when determining the first load and the first loading time based on the torque-displacement curve.
Zur Messung des Drehmoments können direkt Kraftsensoren verwendet werden, welche an der Maschine angebracht sind, die für die Eindrehung der Fundamente gebraucht wird. Zudem ist aber auch eine direkte Messung durch Kraftsensoren, die am Fundament selbst installiert sind, möglich. Es ist aber auch möglich, eine indirekte Messung des Drehmoments zu verwenden, welche auf der Messung des Stromes (elektrische Einbaugeräte) bzw. des Druckes (flüssigkeitsbasierte Drehgeräte) unter Berücksichtigung von antriebsspezifischen Multiplikatoren basiert. Der Eindrehweg kann auch sehr einfach durch für einen Fachmann bekannte Mittel gemessen werden.To measure the torque, force sensors can be used directly, which are attached to the machine that is used to screw in the foundations. In addition, a direct measurement by force sensors that are installed on the foundation itself is also possible. However, it is also possible to use an indirect measurement of the torque, which is based on the measurement of the current (electrical built-in devices) or the pressure (liquid-based rotating devices), taking into account drive-specific multipliers. The turning path can also be measured very easily by means known to a person skilled in the art.
Ausserdem ist zu bemerken, dass das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren eine Rückverfolgbarkeit ermöglicht. Jedes Fundament kann eine Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve zugewiesen bekommen. Dies kann im Falle von zukünftigen Problemen von Vorteil sein, da es ein noch besseres Verständnis der komplexen Beziehung zwischen Eindrehmoment und Tragfähigkeit ermöglicht.It should also be noted that the method according to the invention enables traceability. Each foundation can be assigned a torque-displacement curve. This can be beneficial in the event of future problems, as it enables an even better understanding of the complex relationship between insertion torque and load capacity.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfassen die Einbringparameter die Eindrehwinkelgeschwindigkeit. Mittels Winkelgeschwindigkeit und Windungssteigung des Fundaments kann ein Eindrehrotationsweg ermittelt werden und mit dem tatsächlich gemessenen Eindrehweg verglichen werden. Dadurch kann eine sogenannte Schlupf-Analyse gemacht werden. Damit ist gewährleistet, dass, wenn bei der Eindrehung ein Schlupf des Fundaments auftritt, dieser bei der Ermittlung der Werte der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit berücksichtigt wird.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the introduction parameters include the angular speed of rotation. Using the angular speed and the winding gradient of the foundation, a turning path can be determined and compared with the actually measured turning path. This enables a so-called slip analysis to be carried out. This ensures that if the foundation slips during the turning process, this is taken into account when determining the values of the first load and the first loading time.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfassen die Einbringparameter den Eindrehmomentmaximalwert. Es konnte nämlich gezeigt werden, dass eine hohe Korrelation auch zwischen dem Eindrehmomentmaximalwert und der Tragfähigkeit eines Fundaments existiert. Damit können die erste Last und die erste Belastungszeit noch besser ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the introduction parameters include the maximum value of the insertion torque. It could be shown that a high correlation also exists between the maximum insertion torque value and the load-bearing capacity of a foundation. This allows the first load and the first load time to be determined even better.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfassen die Einbringparameter den Eindrehmomentendwert. Dies ist besonders vorteilhaft für die Bestimmung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit für ein Fundament, das eine Druckbelastung aufnehmen muss. Ein tiefer Eindrehmomentendwert heisst nichts anderes, als dass sich die Spitze des Fundaments in einem weniger tragfähigen Boden befindet. Dieses deutet daher auf eine kleinere Tragfähigkeit im Fall einer Druckbelastung hin.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the introduction parameters include the final torque value. This is particularly advantageous for determining the first load and the first loading time for a foundation that has to absorb a compressive load. A low final torque value means nothing other than that the top of the foundation is in a less stable soil. This therefore indicates a lower load-bearing capacity in the event of a pressure load.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfassen die Einbringparameter den Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals. Es konnte nämlich gezeigt werden, dass eine besonders hohe Korrelation zwischen dem Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals und der Tragfähigkeit eines Fundaments existiert. Mit dem Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals kann daher die Ermittlung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit noch präziser und fundierter erfolgen.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the introduction parameters include the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral. It could be shown that there is a particularly high correlation between the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral and the load-bearing capacity of a foundation. With the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral, the determination of the first load and the first loading time can therefore be carried out even more precisely and on a more well-founded basis.
Üblicherweise wird der Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals über den gesamten Eindrehweg bestimmt und für die Ermittlung der ersten Last und der ersten Belastungszeit berücksichtigt. Es ist aber auch denkbar, einen Betrag des Integrals nur über einen Teilbereich des Eindrehwegs zu bestimmen und zu benutzen. Dies kann insbesondere vorteilhaft sein, wenn das Fundament in einem sehr heterogenen Boden eingebracht wurde. Darüber hinaus ist für ein Fundament, das eine Druckbelastung aufnehmen muss, vorteilhaft, den Wert des Integrals über den Bereich des Eindrehweges zu bestimmen, der dem Ende des Einbringens entspricht. Im Gegenteil ist es für ein Fundament, das eine Zugbelastung aufnehmen muss, vorteilhaft, den Wert des Integrals über den gesamten Eindrehweg zu bestimmen.The amount of the torque-displacement curve integral is usually determined over the entire screw-in displacement and taken into account for the determination of the first load and the first loading time. However, it is also conceivable to determine and use an absolute value of the integral only over a partial range of the screwing-in path. This can be particularly advantageous if the foundation was placed in a very heterogeneous soil. In addition, for a foundation that has to absorb a pressure load, it is advantageous to determine the value of the integral over the range of the screwing-in path that corresponds to the end of the installation. On the contrary, it is advantageous for a foundation that has to withstand a tensile load to determine the value of the integral over the entire screw-in path.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens sind die Belastungen dynamisch und/oder statnamisch. Mit einer dynamischen Belastung oder Entlastung kann durch den Wegfall von Haltezeiten die Prüfzeit nochmals massiv verkürzt werden. Zudem sind Aussagen zu Dehnungen und Beschleunigungen bei den wirkenden dynamischen Kräften möglich. Statnamische Belastungen stellen eine Kombination von statischen und dynamischen Belastungen dar. Dadurch können das statische und dynamische Verhalten in einem einzigen Belastungsvorgang aufgezeichnet werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the loads are dynamic and / or static. With dynamic loading or unloading, the test time can be massively shortened again by eliminating holding times. In addition, statements about expansions and accelerations in the case of the dynamic forces acting are possible. Statnamic loads represent a combination of static and dynamic loads. As a result, the static and dynamic behavior can be recorded in a single loading process.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens werden die erste Last, die Belastungszeiten, die Inkremente und der Reaktionsgrenzwert zusätzlich aufgrund der Fundament-Bauform bestimmt. Dadurch können diese Parameter besser ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of the shape of the foundation. This allows these parameters to be determined better.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens werden die erste Last, die Belastungszeiten, die Inkremente und der Reaktionsgrenzwert zusätzlich aufgrund der zu tragenden Last bestimmt. Dadurch können diese Parameter besser ermittelt werden. Vorteilhafterweise werden die Richtung und/oder die Art der zu tragenden Last berücksichtigt. Unter Art der zu tragenden Last wird zum Beispiel verstanden, welche Dauerlast das Fundament tragen muss oder ob und in welchem Ausmass das Fundament zusätzlich mit Windböen, also mit temporären Lasten, belastet wird.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of the load to be carried. This allows these parameters to be determined better. The direction and / or the type of load to be carried are advantageously taken into account. The type of load to be borne is used for For example, understood what permanent load the foundation has to bear or whether and to what extent the foundation is additionally loaded with gusts of wind, i.e. with temporary loads.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens werden die erste Last, die Belastungszeiten, die Inkremente und der Reaktionsgrenzwert zusätzlich aufgrund vorhergehender Bodenbeurteilungen bestimmt werden. Dadurch können diese Parameter nochmals besser ermittelt werden.In a further preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the first load, the loading times, the increments and the reaction limit value are additionally determined on the basis of previous soil assessments. This enables these parameters to be determined even better.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfasst die aufgezeichnete Reaktion die Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit des Fundaments. Dadurch können die Inkremente und die nächsten Belastungszeiten aufgrund der aufgezeichneten Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit des Fundaments ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the recorded reaction comprises the speed of displacement of the foundation. In this way, the increments and the next loading times can be determined on the basis of the recorded displacement speed of the foundation.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfasst die aufgezeichnete Reaktion den Verschiebungsweg des Fundaments. Dadurch können die Inkremente und die nächsten Belastungszeiten aufgrund des aufgezeichneten Verschiebungswegs des Fundaments ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the recorded reaction comprises the displacement path of the foundation. In this way, the increments and the next loading times can be determined on the basis of the recorded displacement path of the foundation.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfasst die aufgezeichnete Reaktion die Verschiebungsrichtung des Fundaments. Dadurch können die Inkremente und die nächsten Belastungszeiten aufgrund der aufgezeichneten Verschiebungsrichtung des Fundaments ermittelt werden. Darüber hinaus kann aufgrund der aufgezeichneten Verschiebungsrichtung auch ermittelt werden, ob zum Beispiel eine Entlastungstufe eingefügt werden muss, und ob die nächste Belastung rein vertikal oder mit einer horizontalen Komponente erfolgen soll.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the recorded reaction comprises the direction of displacement of the foundation. In this way, the increments and the next loading times can be determined based on the recorded direction of movement of the foundation. In addition, on the basis of the recorded direction of displacement, it can also be determined whether, for example, a relief step needs to be inserted and whether the next load should be purely vertical or with a horizontal component.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens umfasst die aufgezeichnete Reaktion den Kriechfaktor. Dadurch können die Inkremente und die nächsten Belastungszeiten aufgrund des aufgezeichneten Kriechfaktors des Fundaments ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the recorded reaction comprises the creep factor. This allows the increments and the next Load times can be determined based on the recorded creep factor of the foundation.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens entspricht der Reaktionsgrenzwert einer Verschiebungsrichtung, einer Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit, einem Verschiebungsweg, einem Kriechfaktor, einer Last oder einer Kombination davon. Dadurch wird das Verfahren durchgeführt, bis den für das zu prüfende Fundament relevantesten Reaktionsgrenzwert erreicht ist.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the reaction limit value corresponds to a displacement direction, a displacement speed, a displacement path, a creep factor, a load or a combination thereof. This will carry out the procedure until the most relevant response limit for the foundation to be tested is reached.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens, wird der Reaktionsgrenzwert aufgrund der Einbringparameter ermittelt. Dadurch kann der Reaktionsgrenzwert optimal ermittelt werden und das Verfahren nur so lang wie erforderlich durchgeführt. Dank zum Beispiel der hohen Korrelation zwischen dem Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Integrals und der Tragfähigkeit des Fundaments ist es nicht nötig, das Verfahren durchzuführen, bis das Fundament mit der eigentlichen zu tragenden Last belastet ist. Es genügt, die Reaktion des Fundaments bei mehreren kleineren Lasten zu messen und die Tragfähigkeit des Fundaments daraus zu extrapolieren. Die Dauer des gesamten Verfahrens kann somit erheblich reduziert werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the reaction limit value is determined on the basis of the introduction parameters. As a result, the reaction limit value can be optimally determined and the process can only be carried out for as long as necessary. Thanks, for example, to the high correlation between the amount of the torque-displacement integral and the load-bearing capacity of the foundation, it is not necessary to carry out the process until the foundation is loaded with the actual load to be carried. It is sufficient to measure the reaction of the foundation with several smaller loads and to extrapolate the load-bearing capacity of the foundation from this. The duration of the entire procedure can thus be reduced considerably.
In einer anderen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens ist das Verfahren computerimplementiert. Dadurch kann das ganze Verfahren voll automatisiert und schneller durchgeführt werden. Insbesondere können die Reaktionen des Fundaments bei den verschiedenen Lasten mittels geeigneter Algorithmen analysiert werden, und das Inkrement und die Belastungszeit für die nächste Laststufe schnell, fundiert und präzis ermittelt werden.In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, the method is implemented by a computer. This means that the entire process can be fully automated and carried out more quickly. In particular, the reactions of the foundation to the various loads can be analyzed using suitable algorithms, and the increment and the load time for the next load level can be determined quickly, well-founded and precisely.

Während der unten beschriebenen bevorzugten Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens spezifisch die Tragfähigkeitsprüfung eines Schraubfundaments illustriert, kann das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren genauso gut zur Tragfähigkeitsprüfung anderer Arten von Fundamenten angewendet werden.While the preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention described below specifically illustrates the load-bearing capacity test of a screw foundation, the method according to the invention can just as well be used for the load-bearing capacity test of other types of foundations.

Im nächsten Verfahrensschritt werden, aufgrund der ermittelten Einbringparameter, der Wert der ersten Last L1 und der ersten Belastungszeit t1 ermittelt. Anschliessend wird das Fundament mit der Last L1 belastet. Während der Belastung mit der ersten Last L1 wird die Reaktion des Fundaments kontinuierlich aufgezeichnet. Zum Beispiel werden Verschiebungsweg und Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit des Fundaments gemessen. Die Reaktion des Fundaments kann auch den Kriechfaktor des Fundaments unter Belastung L1, oder die Verschiebungsrichtung (horizontal/vertikal) umfassen.In the next method step, the value of the first load L1 and the first loading time t1 are determined on the basis of the determined introduction parameters. The foundation is then loaded with the load L1. During the loading with the first load L1, the reaction of the foundation is continuously recorded. For example, the displacement path and displacement speed of the foundation are measured. The reaction of the foundation can also include the creep factor of the foundation under load L1, or the displacement direction (horizontal / vertical).
Die Belastung mit der Last L1 wird aufrechterhalten, bis eine vorbestimmte Reaktion erreicht ist oder während der ersten Belastungszeit t1. Die vorbestimme Reaktion kann zum Beispiel einer bestimmten Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit oder einem bestimmten Verschiebungsweg entsprechen. Beispielhaft wird die Belastung mit der Last L1 aufrechterhalten, bis die Verschiebungsgeschwindigkeit den Wert null erreicht hat, d.h. wenn das Fundament sich nicht mehr bewegt. Wenn sich das Fundament aufgrund der Last L1 nie bewegt hat, wird diese Laststufe natürlich nach der Belastungszeit t1 abgebrochen, da offensichtlich ist, dass die Last erhöht werden kann. Die vorbestimmte Reaktion kann aber auch einem gewissen Wert des Kriechfaktors entsprechen. Es ist allgemein bekannt, dass, falls der Kriechfaktor unter eins liegt und sich von der Gerade k=1 in Richtung 0 entwickelt, die wirkende Belastung unterhalb der Bruchlast liegt, so dass die Prüflast erhöht werden kann. Der vorbestimmte Reaktionsgrenzwert kann aber auch eine Kombination von verschiedenen, und beliebig vielen, Werten sein, wie zum Beispiel Kriechfaktor und Verschiebungsweg.The loading with the load L1 is maintained until a predetermined response is reached or during the first loading time t1. The predetermined reaction can correspond, for example, to a specific displacement speed or a specific displacement path. For example, the load with the load L1 is maintained until the displacement speed has reached the value zero, i.e. when the foundation no longer moves. If the foundation has never moved due to the load L1, this load stage is of course canceled after the load time t1, since it is obvious that the load can be increased. The predetermined reaction can, however, also correspond to a certain value of the creep factor. It is generally known that if the creep factor is below one and develops from the straight line k = 1 in the direction of 0, the acting load is below the breaking load, so that the test load can be increased. The predetermined reaction limit value can, however, also be a combination of different and any number of values, such as, for example, creep factor and displacement path.
Im nächsten Schritt werden das Inkrement I1 und die Belastungszeit t2 für die nächste Belastungsstufe ermittelt. Im erfindungsgemässen Verfahren basiert die Ermittlung dieser Werte auf der aufgezeichneten Reaktion des Fundaments aufgrund der vorherigen Last. Wie in der Figur angedeutet, gibt es daher eine Rückkopplung zwischen zwei sich folgenden Laststufen. Zum Beispiel, wenn die Last L1 gar keinen oder nur einen kleinen Verschiebungsweg des Fundaments verursacht hat und/oder die Kriechkurve nahe bei 0 liegt, können das Inkrement I1 gross und die Belastungszeit t2 klein gewählt werden. Hingegen soll, wenn die Reaktion bei der ersten Belastungsstufe gross war, das Inkrement I1 eher klein gewählt werden.In the next step, the increment I1 and the load time t2 are determined for the next load level. In the method according to the invention the determination of these values is based on the recorded reaction of the foundation due to the previous load. As indicated in the figure, there is therefore a feedback between two subsequent load levels. For example, if the load L1 has caused no or only a small displacement path of the foundation and / or the creep curve is close to 0, the increment I1 can be selected to be large and the loading time t2 to be small. On the other hand, if the reaction in the first load stage was large, the increment I1 should be selected to be rather small.
Nach der Ermittlung des Inkrements I1 und der Belastungszeit t2, wird das Fundament mit der Last L2 = L1+I1 belastet. Während der Belastung mit L2 wird, wie während der vorherigen Laststufe, die Reaktion des Fundaments kontinuierlich aufgezeichnet. Die Belastung mit der Last L2 wird bis eine vorbestimmte Reaktion erreicht ist oder während der Belastungszeit t2 aufrechterhalten. Wie bei der vorherigen Laststufe, kann die vorbestimmte Reaktion des Fundaments verschiedenen Parametern oder einer Kombination beliebig vieler verschiedener Parameter entsprechen.After determining the increment I1 and the loading time t2, the foundation is loaded with the load L2 = L1 + I1. During the loading with L2, as during the previous load level, the reaction of the foundation is continuously recorded. The loading with the load L2 is maintained until a predetermined response is reached or during the loading time t2. As with the previous load stage, the predetermined response of the foundation can correspond to different parameters or a combination of any number of different parameters.
Danach werden ein neues Inkrement und eine neue Belastungszeit aufgrund der Reaktion des Fundaments bei der Last L2 ermittelt. Wie in
Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren kann sowohl im Fall einer Belastungsprüfung, zum Beispiel eines Ausziehversuchs nach Schweizerischer Norm SIA 267, bei welchem keine vordefinierte Last abzutragen ist, sondern das Lastabtragverhalten zu prüfen ist, als auch einer Qualitätsprüfung, zum Beispiel einer Zugprobe nach Schweizerischer Norm SIA 267, bei welcher ein vordefinierter Lastabtrag, wie zum Beispiel bei einer Abnahmeprüfung, zu prüfen ist. Im Falle einer Abnahmeprüfung, wird üblicherweise durch einen Ingenieur bestimmt, welcher Lastabtrag das Fundament tragen können muss. Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren wird somit durchgeführt, bis die Last, mit welcher das Fundament belastet wird, gleich gross oder grösser als der Lastabtrag ist, oder bis ein Bodenbruch bei einer kleineren Last verursacht wurde. Im Fall einer Abnahmeprüfung kann der Reaktionsgrenzwert somit, zum Beispiel, einer Kombination des Lastabtrags und des Kriechfaktors entsprechen. Es ist bekannt, dass ein Kriechfaktor grösser als zwei einem Bodenbruch entspricht. Es ist zu beachten, dass es nicht immer notwendig ist zu warten, bis der Kriechfaktor tatsächlich über zwei liegt, um feststellen zu können, dass die Bruchlast erreicht ist. In vielen Fällen ist eine Analyse des zeitlichen Verhaltens des Kriechfaktors viel aussagekräftiger als der Wert des Faktors (siehe unten für eine Diskussion über den Kriechfaktor). Zudem kann auch - wie allgemein bekannt - die Verschiebung bereits hinreichend ein Bruchverhalten beschreiben.The method according to the invention can be used both in the case of a load test, for example a pull-out test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which no predefined load is to be removed, but rather the load-transfer behavior is to be checked, and a quality test, for Example of a tensile test according to the Swiss standard SIA 267, in which a predefined load transfer, for example during an acceptance test, is to be checked. In the case of an acceptance test, an engineer usually determines which load transfer device the foundation must be able to carry. The method according to the invention is thus carried out until the load with which the foundation is loaded is equal to or greater than the load transfer, or until a ground break has been caused with a smaller load. In the case of an acceptance test, the response limit value can thus correspond, for example, to a combination of the load transfer and the creep factor. It is known that a creep factor greater than two corresponds to a ground failure. It should be noted that it is not always necessary to wait until the creep factor is actually above two in order to be able to determine that the breaking load has been reached. In many cases, an analysis of the behavior of the creep factor over time is much more meaningful than the value of the factor (see below for a discussion of the creep factor). In addition, as is generally known, the displacement can already adequately describe a fracture behavior.
Im Fall einer Belastungsprüfung des eingebrachten Fundaments wird das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren durchgeführt, bis der Bodenbruch verursacht wird oder bis eine bestimmte Last erreicht ist, welche die Ermittlung der Tragfähigkeit des Fundaments durch Extrapolation ermöglicht. Es wurde nämlich gezeigt, dass eine hohe Korrelation zwischen dem Verhalten eines Fundaments bei kleinen Lasten und der tatsächlichen Tragfähigkeit des gleichen Fundaments bei definierten Randbedingungen existiert. Somit ist es in solchen Fällen nicht immer notwendig, die Bruchlast tatsächlich zu erreichen, um die Tragfähigkeit des Fundaments zu ermitteln. Es wurde nämlich wissenschaftlich gezeigt, dass es dann hinreichend ist, die Reaktion des Fundaments aufgrund mehreren kleinen Lasten aufzuzeichnen, um die Tragfähigkeit des Fundaments extrapolieren zu können. Die Extrapolation der Tragfähigkeit kann zum Beispiel auf der Basis der gemessenen Einbringparameter oder dem Vergleich des Reaktionsverhalten und der Einbringparameter mit vergleichbaren Datensätzen gemacht werden. Spezifisch konnte zum Beispiel gezeigt werden, dass es einen engen Zusammenhang zwischen dem Betrag des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals und der Bruchlast eines Fundaments gibt. Daher wurden mathematische Modelle entwickelt, welche die Extrapolation der Tragfähigkeit eines Fundaments aufgrund der Reaktion des Fundaments unter einem oder mehreren kleinen Lasten und mithilfe des Betrags des Eindrehmoment-Weg-Kurve-Integrals ermöglichen. Umfangreichliche experimentelle Prüfungen dieser Modelle haben gezeigt, dass es tatsächlich möglich ist, die Tragfähigkeit eines Fundaments auf diese Art und Weise hinreichend "vorherzusagen".In the case of a load test of the installed foundation, the method according to the invention is carried out until the ground break is caused or until a certain load is reached, which enables the load-bearing capacity of the foundation to be determined by extrapolation. It was shown that there is a high correlation between the behavior of a foundation with small loads and the actual load-bearing capacity of the same foundation under defined boundary conditions. In such cases it is not always necessary to actually achieve the breaking load in order to determine the load-bearing capacity of the foundation. It has been scientifically shown that it is then sufficient to record the reaction of the foundation due to several small loads in order to be able to extrapolate the load-bearing capacity of the foundation. The extrapolation of the load-bearing capacity can, for example, be made on the basis of the measured application parameters or the comparison of the reaction behavior and the application parameters with comparable data sets. Specifically, it could be shown, for example, that there is a close relationship between the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral and the Breaking load of a foundation. Therefore, mathematical models have been developed which allow the extrapolation of the load-bearing capacity of a foundation based on the reaction of the foundation under one or more small loads and with the aid of the amount of the torque-displacement-curve integral. Extensive experimental tests of these models have shown that it is actually possible to sufficiently "predict" the load-bearing capacity of a foundation in this way.
Zum Vergleich zeigt
Wie oben erläutert, werden im erfindungsgemässen Verfahren die erste Last L1 und die erste Belastungszeit t1 aufgrund der gemessenen Einbringparameter und/oder des Lastabtrags ermittelt. Besonders aussagekräftige Parameter sind das Eindrehmoment und der Eindrehweg des Fundaments. Wie in
Wie oben erwähnt, kann die Ermittlung der ersten Last L1 zusätzlich oder alternativ aufgrund des Lastabtrages, d.h. der zu tragenden Last, gemacht werden. Dies ist vor allem relevant im Fall einer Abnahmeprüfung, bei welcher ein Ingenieur die minimale zu tragende Last definiert. Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren kann somit mit einer Last L1 anfangen, welche einem gewissen Bruchteil, zum Beispiel der Hälfte oder drei Viertel, des Lastabtrags entspricht. Es ist sogar vorstellbar, dass das Verfahren mit einer ersten Last L1 anfängt, die gleich gross wie oder grösser als der Lastabtrag ist. In einem solchen Fall können zwei Reaktionsgrenzwerte, ein "oberer" und ein "unterer", vorbestimmt werden. Ein erster Grenzwert könnte zum Beispiel aus einer Kombination aus einem zu erfüllenden Kriechverhalten (Kriechfaktor muss immer unter 1 bleiben und die erste Ableitung positiv sein, sich also 0 annähern) und einer maximalen Verschiebung (die Verschiebung darf 1.0mm nicht übersteigen) definiert werden. Die Erfüllung dieses «oberen Reaktionsgrenzwertes» würde die ingenieurtechnische Abnahmeprüfung betreffend geforderter Tragfähigkeit bei maximal zugelassener Deformation erfüllen. Im Gegenteil könnte mit einem «unteren Reaktionsgrenzwert» die Nichterfüllung der Abnahmeprüfung definiert werden. Wenn also zum Beispiel bei einer Laststufe die Kombination des Kriechfaktors grösser als 1 und die erste Ableitung der Kriechkurve negativ ist (der Kriechfaktor ist "steigend") oder eine maximale Verschiebung des Fundaments von 4mm übersteigt, bedeutet dies nichts anderes als, dass die ingenieurtechnische Abnahmeprüfung nicht erfüllt wurde.As mentioned above, the determination of the first load L1 can additionally or alternatively be made on the basis of the load transfer, ie the load to be carried. This is particularly relevant in the case of an acceptance test in which an engineer defines the minimum load to be borne. The method according to the invention can thus start with a load L1 which corresponds to a certain fraction, for example half or three quarters, of the load transfer. It is even conceivable that the method begins with a first load L1 which is equal to or greater than the load transfer. In such a case, two response limits, an "upper" and a "lower", can be predetermined. A first limit value could, for example, consist of a combination of a creep behavior to be fulfilled (creep factor must always remain below 1 and the first derivative must be positive, i.e. approach 0) and a maximum Shift (the shift must not exceed 1.0mm) can be defined. The fulfillment of this “upper reaction limit value” would fulfill the engineering acceptance test with regard to the required load-bearing capacity at the maximum permitted deformation. On the contrary, a “lower response limit” could be used to define non-compliance with the acceptance test. If, for example, the combination of the creep factor is greater than 1 and the first derivative of the creep curve is negative (the creep factor is "increasing") or exceeds a maximum displacement of the foundation of 4mm, this means nothing other than that the engineering acceptance test has not been met.
Im erfindungsgemässen Verfahren, und wie in
Wie man anhand der Beschreibung der bevorzugten Ausführungsform und verschiedener tatsächlichen Messungen der Einbringparameter und der Reaktion der Fundamente aufgrund Belastungen verstehen kann, gibt es viele komplexe Zusammenhänge zwischen einer grossen Anzahl an Parametern. Diese Zusammenhänge erlauben ja wie ausgeführt auch Vorhersagen zum Lastabtragverhalten der Fundamente. Darum ist es natürlich vorteilhaft, wenn das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren mittels Computer implementiert wird. Die komplexen Zusammenhänge zwischen Einbringparameter, Fundamentreaktion, Belastungszeiten, Baugrundcharakterisierung usw. können somit in klugen Algorithmen verfasst werden. Mit einer Computer-Implementierung, vorzugsweise mit der Benutzung von Verfahren der künstlichen Intelligenz, kann das Prüfverfahren schneller und präziser durchgeführt werden.As can be understood from the description of the preferred embodiment and various actual measurements of the driving parameters and the response of the foundations to loads, there are many complex relationships between a large number of parameters. As already mentioned, these relationships also allow predictions to be made about the load transfer behavior of the foundations. It is therefore of course advantageous if the method according to the invention is implemented by means of a computer. The complex relationships between the input parameters, foundation reaction, loading times, subsoil characterization, etc. can thus be written in clever algorithms. With a computer implementation, preferably with the use of artificial intelligence methods, the test method can be carried out more quickly and more precisely.
