Description

The present invention relates to a method for forming a fixing portion in a ground anchor work and an anchor head attached to an anchor head.

Ground anchor method is a method used to prevent unstable collapse or peeling by bonding unstable ground or rock directly to stable ground or rock, and drilling holes in the base to inject cement mortar etc. The anchor body is formed by the following three basic elements.
"Anchor head": A part that allows force from the structure to be transmitted to the tension part as a tension force.
"Tensile part": A part that transmits the tensile force to the anchor body in the base.
"Anchor body": A part that transmits the tensile force from the tension part to the base and resists it.

  The main feature of the ground anchor work is a tightening function that presses and stabilizes the slope where there is a risk of slipping by prestressing the tension part. The tensile strength of the tensile part is used to prevent the landslide mass from trying to slide, but unlike the pile work, by applying a certain amount of prestress to the tensile part at an early stage, the elongation of the tensile part ( There is an initial detent function that can increase the deterrent effect when the amount of deformation due to landslide is small. In addition, there is a sewing function in which the anchor body is formed across the sliding surface and the strength of the sliding surface is increased by the tensile strength of the tensile portion.

In such a ground anchor construction, maintenance by periodic inspection is an essential requirement, and it is necessary to maintain its effect by re-tensioning. For example, due to deformation of the pressure receiving plate or ground subsidence, a tightening effect or a retaining effect that suppresses ground fluctuation is not sufficiently exerted on the anchor body. For this reason, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example, there is a fixing unit structure that compensates for a decrease in tension of the anchor body over time by disposing an elastic member in the fixing unit.
JP 11-03941 A

However, the conventional fixing unit structure is merely a structure in which an elastic member is disposed in the fixing unit of the anchor head, and there is a problem that workability for constructing the fixing unit in the field is significantly reduced. For example, there are not only the incorporation of an elastic member in the field and the rust prevention treatment thereof, but also the compression of the elastic member and the increase of the tensile stroke accompanying the tension work of the anchor head. In addition, it may be necessary to introduce a large hydraulic jack.

  In view of the above problems, the present inventor has achieved the present invention as a result of earnest research, and the feature thereof is an apparatus that constitutes the anchoring portion of the anchor head in the ground anchor work. The insertion member for inserting the tendon in the center, and an accommodation member that accommodates an elastic body around the insertion portion, and a cover member that generates a spring effect by the elastic body between the accommodation member, A fixing portion for fixing the housing member and the cover member in a state where the elastic body is compressed is provided.

  Alternatively, in the ground anchor method, a method for constructing a fixing portion in which the anchor head is tensioned and fixed, and a storage member that has an insertion portion that allows a tendon to be inserted in the center and that houses an elastic body around the insertion portion. And an anchor head constituted by a cover member that generates a spring effect by the elastic body with the housing member, the anchor head in a state where the housing member and the cover member are fixed and the elastic body is compressed. After being attached to the part, the fixing of the housing member and the cover member is released.

  Here, the “fixing part” in the present specification refers to maintaining a state where the tension part is pre-stressed by being connected to an anchor body formed by drilling to a depth from the ground surface to a stable base. A structure built on the surface of the earth for the purpose. Usually, a pressure receiving plate or a supporting plate is provided on the ground surface, and the head of a tension material (tendon) connected to the anchor body is tensioned with a hydraulic jack and fixed with a fixing tool such as a nut.

  The “accommodating member” refers to a member that has an insertion portion through which tendon is inserted at the center, and that stores an elastic body around the insertion portion. In this invention, it is set as the structure which generate | occur | produces the spring effect by an elastic body between this accommodating member and this cover member by covering this accommodating member with a cover member. Examples of the elastic body include a coil rubber, a disc spring, a gas cushion, and hard rubber such as urethane. These elastic bodies are fitted into the insertion part of the housing member, or a plurality of these elastic bodies are disposed around the housing. The housing member and the cover member are made of a metal such as stainless steel or aluminum, or a composite material such as plastic or FRP.

  The anchor head according to the present invention is inserted into the tendon or attached to the top of the tendon, thereby supplementing the retention and reduction of the prestress applied to the tensile material by the elastic body. When inserting through the tendon, the cover member is also provided with an insertion portion. When attaching to the top of the tendon, it is possible to attach it after the anchor head is tensioned and fixed, and an engagement part that engages with the end of the tendon is provided at the center of the inner surface of the cover member, or an insertion part is provided. Secure with a nut. It can also be fixed to a fixing tool such as a nut with a bolt.

  In this invention, the fixing | fixed part which fixes a cover member and an accommodating member in the state which compressed the elastic body is provided. After fixing these to the anchor head, the fixing by the fixing portion is released. In other words, it is fixed at the time of factory shipment, and is released after installation at the site. Examples of the fixing part include insertion of pins and bolts, and engagement by hooks. The fixing by the fixing portion is preferably provided at a position where the housing member and the cover member do not move in the axial direction when the fixing is released. This is a structure in which the cover member and the housing member abut each other in the axial direction in a state where the elastic body is compressed, and a fixing portion is provided at a position where these abut each other. And it can achieve by attaching so that both an accommodation member and a cover member may not be opened at the time of fixed release. This facilitates unlocking and prevents damage and danger of each part due to a rapid restoring force of the elastic body. Further, by providing and fixing the fixing portion at this position, the cover member and the housing member are integrated to form a rigid body, which is also effective when it is attached to the anchor head and then tensioned.

The anchor head according to the present invention has a structure in which the anchor function is maintained by the elastic body by being attached to the anchor head, but the elastic body has been displaced, or the elastic body has been damaged and no longer functions. It is preferable to provide a switch, such as a sensor for detecting In particular, by detecting that the elastic body is displaced within the allowable displacement, the anchor function can be repaired and repaired in advance without abruptly decreasing. Means for displaying the detection include lighting of a warning lamp, sound, and transmission by a transmitter.

  The anchor head according to the present invention is not only capable of maintaining the anchor function in the ground anchor work over a long period of time by being configured by the housing member and the cover member provided with the fixing portion that fixes the elastic body in a compressed state, It became possible to remarkably improve the workability, such as eliminating the need to compress the elastic body at the site and facilitating handling.

In particular, when the anchor head is in tension / fixed state, when the cover member and the housing member are released from fixation, they are fixed at a position where they do not move in the axial direction. In addition, fixing can be easily performed. For this reason, it has a very useful effect in practice, such as being able to be mounted on an existing anchor head as an anchor cap that covers the anchor head after tension and fixation.
