Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of constructing a retaining structure against a wall of an existing structure, such as an embankment, a wall or a rock wall, wall in which are provided distributed anchor points.
- a wall is usually either substantially vertical or inclined.
- These retaining structures frequently consist of a stack of stones laid with or without mortar. Their section is most often trapezoidal, wide at the base and narrowing at the top of the wall. These structures function like weight walls. In other words, the weight of the stone assembly balances the thrust of the land. Many disorders affect these ancient structures: deformations, local rock collapse or even ruin of a portion of the structure by tilting or sliding.
- nailing which consists in driving in or sealing resistant linear elements, commonly known as nails, capable of constituting with the ground a composite material by friction between the ground and the external surface of the nail or of its coating.
- This technique gives the soil new mechanical properties. It is well defined in documents such as the "Clouterre Recommendations”.
- the heads of the nails are connected by a welded mesh.
- a sprayed concrete covers the entire wall to form a new sprayed concrete facing which only follows the shapes of this wall.
- the concrete wall is generally quite inclined from the vertical, often more than the original stone wall. Its aesthetic is unpleasant. This is why, to restore the attractive appearance of the stones, it is necessary to build a new wall of stones or pebbles in front of the wall of shotcrete.
- the median space at the head of the wall is equal to or more reduced than the original space due to the receding of the wall crest.
- the subject of the invention is a method of constructing a retaining structure against a wall of an existing structure, in particular an embankment, a wall or a rock wall, which overcomes these drawbacks.
- This process must be economical and quick to perform. It must make it possible to build a steeper support structure, that is to say closer to the vertical, than the original wall if it is necessary to enlarge the space of the median.
- this process must make it possible to retain an external appearance of the retaining structure close to the original aesthetics of the stone wall.
- a facing structure is erected comprising fixing points at a certain distance from the wall so as to delimit a space between this wall and the facing structure;
- the wall anchoring points are successively connected to the fixing points of the facing structure by at least one continuous flexible link;
- the flexible link easily adapts to variations in distance between the anchoring points of the wall and the fixing points of the facing structure. Indeed, it is not easy to implant nails in the ground in specific places. As a result, the position of the nail heads in the three dimensions is imprecise. The flexible link easily adapts to this imprecision of the position of the nail heads.
- the flexible link offers great tensile strength for a modest price. It constitutes an advantageous alternative compared to mechanical adjustable traction links of known type, such as inverted pitch screw lanterns.
- the process of the invention also offers the advantage of not requiring a foundation.
- Another advantage of the method of the invention lies in the fact that the retaining wall can easily be steeper than the slope of the original structure. This makes it possible to enlarge the area of median available if the need arises.
- the facing structure can be made in one piece, particularly if the dimensions of the structure are not very large.
- the structure of facing consists of modular elements. These elements are assembled together, which makes it possible to constitute a large-scale structure.
- the facing structure is erected by successive lifting of the fill of the space between the wall and the facing structure.
- the facing structure is arranged at a certain distance from the wall. This distance can vary from approximately 0.5 meters to several meters.
- a first row of structural elements is fixed to anchoring points of the wall by at least one continuous flexible link;
- the structural elements are kept spaced from the wall by at least one element called a "strut" which is removed after filling the space between the wall and the structural elements.
- the elements of the facing structure are kept spaced from the inclined wall by an external guide attached to the structural elements of the immediately lower row; the space between the wall and the elements of the facing structure is backfilled; and a continuous flexible link is placed at the upper edge of the elements of the facing structure.
- the anchor points can be constituted by any structure capable of withstanding the required forces, for example an embankment, an existing wall of reinforced or unreinforced concrete, a rock wall or any other structure.
- the anchoring points provided in the wall are constituted by nails driven into the ground to be consolidated. The installation of the nails is carried out either by threshing, that is to say by force driving, or by drilling, that is to say by placing the nail in a drilling and sealing by a grout .
- tie rods anchored at their end opposite the nail head.
- the anchoring points which may for example be nails or tie rods, comprise at least one curved element serving as support for the flexible link.
- This curved element can be a curved bar or a molded curved head with several branches. The curvature of the bar or molded head has the function of retaining the link by preventing it from slipping.
- the fixing points of the link on the facing structure can be formed in many ways.
- they can be constituted by bars which bear on the facing structure, or preferably by stirrups attached to the facing structure.
- the latter can be provided sufficiently elongated to pass through an external embankment area mechanically aggressive for the flexible link, such as for example a layer of pebbles.
- the continuous flexible link can take very different forms. It can be metallic, for example galvanized steel or stainless steel. It can also be made of a material chosen from high-tenacity polymers, polyamides, aramids or even glass or carbon fibers.
- the flexible link has the shape of a ribbon or a strip. This form is advantageous because, with equal resistance with a wire or a cable of round section, a link of planar section turns much better around the anchoring points and the fixing points. The stresses are more balanced in a flat section than in a circular section.
- the flexible link is constituted by a strip formed of polyester wicks surrounded by a sheathing of polyethylene.
- the modular facing elements can consist of welded mesh panels. These panels can be assembled with a layer of stones or pebbles which gives an aspect close to the original facing.
- the modular facing elements can also consist of concrete parts, in particular concrete panels, by cladding on a frame, or by a stack of prefabricated blocks constituting planters.
- FIG. 1 is a general perspective view which illustrates the construction method of the invention
- - Figure 2 is a side elevational view of the slope shown in Figure 1;
- Figures 5 and 6 illustrate another particular variant of the method of the invention
- Figures 7 to 9 show various embodiments of anchoring the flexible link in the wall by means of nails driven into the slope
- FIG. 1 shows a general perspective view which illustrates the process of the invention.
- Reference 2 designates an existing structure to be consolidated, in the example a floor. This soil is limited to its upper part by a median 4 which constitutes the original median which supports a load such as a traffic lane or a construction.
- the embankment 4 is laterally limited by a face 6 which is very inclined with respect to the horizontal 8.
- the face 6, which may also be called a wall is not lined with a wall, for example a stone wall. It therefore constitutes a simple embankment.
- Soil 2 could also be supported by a stack of dry or masonry stones.
- a support structure is constructed, in accordance with the invention.
- This work includes a wall 10 called the facing structure, spaced from the wall 6 (slope) so as to delimit a certain space between the wall 6 and the structure 10.
- This distance 12 measured at the foot of the structure 10 can vary from approximately 0 , 5 meters to several meters.
- the angle of inclination of the structure 10 is closer to the vertical than the angle of the slope 6. In this way, the distance between the structure and the slope increases as the 'we are moving up.
- the embankment 14 between the upper part of the slope 6 and the upper part of the facing structure 10 is wider than the distance 12. The space available on the embankment 4 is thus increased.
- the facing structure 10 In order to balance the weight of the embankment 6, the facing structure 10 must be anchored to the ground 2 by anchors provided on the surface of the slope 6.
- the anchors are formed by the heads 18 of nails 20 driven into the ground 2.
- the nails 20 are formed by mechanically resistant linear elements such as bars or steel tubes. They can be forced in by hammering. You can also drill holes in the ground 2, introduce the nails into the borehole and seal them with grout. These nails are distributed as regularly as possible on the surface of the slope 6. They are, for example, arranged in a series of horizontal rows. The presence of the nails 20 improves the mechanical resistance properties of the soil 2 and contributes to its reinforcement.
- the facing structure 10 has fixing points 22 located opposite the anchors 18.
- the fixing points 22 are distributed over the surface of the facing structure in horizontal rows preferably situated at the same level as the rows of heads 18 of the nails 20.
- a continuous flexible link 24 connects the anchors 18 of the ground 2 to the fixing points 22 of the structure 10.
- the link 24 is produced in one or more materials resistant to mechanical constraints imposed by the construction phases and to permanent loading and overloading for a period of several decades, and even of the order of a century. It is also resistant to corrosion. It can be made of a metal such as galvanized steel or stainless steel. It can also be made of plastic, for example of polymer (high tenacity polyester, polyamide or aramid) or also of glass or carbon fibers.
- the link 24 is continuous over several meters, or even over several tens of meters. It is stretched between the head 18 of the nails 20 and the fixing points 22. It has the advantage of adapting at the time of construction to the differences in distance and position between the wall 10 to be created and the heads 18 of the nails . Therefore, it is easy to set up. It also has the advantage of being inexpensive.
- the space between the slope 6 and the structure 10 is backfilled with a material of characteristics chosen to complete the structure.
- FIG. 2 shows a side elevation view of the slope shown in FIG. 1.
- the facing structure can be produced in a single panel, it is preferably made up of assembled modular panels. Illustrated in Figure 2 a method of the invention in which the embankment 16 is made in six levees formed one after the other until reaching the height of the slope. The height of each lift is equal to the height of a modular element 30.
- the slope is consolidated by nailing. The nailing is preferably done from top to bottom, starting with the upper part of the slope 6. We progress downwards by removing the stones or unstable elements (dashed line 32), so as to obtain a slope with a firm and stable surface in the short term.
- the nailing and slope correction operation completed, there is a first row of modular elements 30, constituted for example by welded mesh panels placed at the foot of the structure.
- the panels 30 are placed at a distance 12 from the lower part of the embankment, as explained previously ( Figure 1). They are anchored to the slope by two flexible links.
- a lower link 2 connects the heads 18 x of the nails 20 x of the lower row to the fixing point 22 x located at the lower part of the elements 30 x of the first row.
- a flexible link 24 2 successively connects the heads 18 2 of the nails 20 2 of the second row to the fixing point 22 2 provided at the upper part of the modular elements 30 x of the first row.
- the space between the 30 x modular elements of the first row and the lower part of the slope is then backfilled.
- the elements 30 ⁇ are then maintained, on the one hand, by the push of the earth and the strong pulls exerted on the links 2 ⁇ and 24 2 .
- a second row of modular panels 30 2 is arranged above the first, the lower part of these panels resting on the inner edge of the panels of the first row.
- the upper part of the panels of the second row is maintained by means of a flexible link 24 3 . It is not necessary to provide a new link at the lower part of these panels since they are kept in abutment on the upper edge of the panels of the first row.
- the panels 30- L are thus temporarily maintained until the filling of the embankment ( Figure 4), the thrust of the embankment being exerted on the inner face of the panels 30 (see arrows), the struts 34 can be removed and be reused to make blocking of the upper row panels.
- FIG. 5 and 6 There is shown in Figures 5 and 6 a second method for temporarily holding the panels 30.
- the lower row having been made, a guide 36, for example a wooden bastaing, comprising a hook 38, is hung on the outside of the panels 30 of the facing structure.
- the panels 30 2 of the second row bear on the guide 36 during the backfilling of the space between the slope 6 and the second row of panels.
- the backfilling finished, the flexible link 24 3 is placed between the anchors 18 3 constituted by the heads of the nails 20 3 inserted in the embankment and the fixing points 22 3 provided at the upper part of the panels 30 2 .
- the thrust of the embankment is then balanced by the traction of the link 24 3 .
- Figures 7 to 9 show various embodiments of anchoring the link in the ground 2 of the slope.
- the nails 20 are constituted by tubes driven into the ground by beating, that is to say by striking on their free end.
- the head 18 of the nail 20 has a curved bar which is simply welded to the end of the tube 20.
- the flexible link 24 passes twice over the bar 18.
- the link 24 n ' is fixed only once to a given anchor of a tube 20.
- the link 24 has the form of a ribbon which easily adapts to the cylindrical external diameter of the welded bar.
- the nail 20 is constituted by a solid bar, threaded at its free end.
- a molded head 18 with two curved branches is fixed to the threaded end of the bar 20 by means of a bolt 37.
- the flexible link 24 passes over each of the two branches of the molded head.
- FIG. 9 shows a perspective view of an embodiment which is preferably used when the spacing between the nails 20 is very large, in particular when it is greater than the spacing between the points of fixing the facing structure 10.
- Each nail 20 has at its free end a lug 40 welded.
- the terminal 40 ends with a folded tongue 42 and fixed by a bolt 44, so as to delimit a buttonhole into which a bar or a distribution tube 46 also called smooth can be introduced.
- the heddle 46 has a significant length, for example several meters, so that it can be retained by several nails. Stirrups can then be hung on the heddle 46 between two successive nails 20.
- two stirrups, constituting two anchors 18, are interposed between the two nails 20.
- the number of anchors 18 can thus be equal to the number of fixing points 22 of the facing structure, so that the flexible link 24 takes a regular shape between the fixing points 22 and the anchors 18.
- the fixing points of the facing structure also consist of stirrups attached to the main bars of the welded mesh constituting the modular elements 30.
- FIG. 10 there are shown in Figures 10 to 13 various embodiments of the fixing points of the flexible link 24 on the facing structure 10.
- the flexible link 24 is fixed by a bracket 22 to the main bars 48 of the wire mesh constituting the facing structure, in the same way as shown in FIG. 9.
- the stirrup has a great length, so that its end over which the flexible link 24 passes is at the exterior of a pebble zone 26 (see Figure 1) placed against the facing structure 10.
- the pebbles 26 are intended to give an attractive aesthetic appearance to the retaining structure, but they are aggressive for the link 24 and they could damage it. This is why the stirrups are designed so as to be sufficiently elongated so that the attachment of the link is in the loose earth of the embankment.
- the flexible link 24 is simply maintained by a rigid bar 22 placed near a main bar 48 of the welded mesh structure constituting the facing 10.
- the bar may not be fixed. It is then simply held against the trellis by the traction exerted by the flexible link 24.
- FIGS. 12 and 13 show fixing points suitable for a rigid panel, for example a concrete panel.
- two rings 50 are sealed in the concrete wall.
- the rings 50 are arranged in a horizontal plane.
- a bar, constituting a fixing point 22, is slid inside the two rings 50 and the flexible link 24 wraps around the bar 22. The bar is held by the traction exerted by the flexible link, without further fixing.
