Definitions

• the present invention relates to the field of special works in the soil. It relates more particularly to a diaphragm wall, as well as to a method for producing such a diaphragm wall.
• the molded wall according to the invention, and the corresponding production method, are particularly suitable for the construction of platforms, car parks, metro stations, tunnels, and more generally any structure in which the cladding of the wall is necessary.
• Molded walls in the soil have been well known for a long time.
• An excavation of elongated shape, of width and depth equal to those of the wall that one wishes to obtain, is first formed in the ground.
• the stability of the trench during the drilling operation is obtained by filling the excavation with a liquid called "sludge", usually based on bentonite.
• This mud forms on the walls of the excavation a tight deposit which allows it not to percolate in the ground and to prevent the walls from collapsing.
• a reinforcement cage is put in place, then the excavation is gradually filled with concrete using a dip tube, starting below the mud in the bottom of the excavation.
• the prefabricated walls offer an interesting alternative to the diaphragm walls.
• the wall when access to the wall is impossible or dangerous, it is not possible to intervene on the diaphragm wall, after earthwork, to ensure the finish.
• Prefabricated walls well known since the early 1970s, are a solution to this problem. According to the known methods, an excavation is carried out in the soil in the same manner as previously described for the diaphragm walls. The prefabricated panels were then lowered into the excavation, previously filled with drilling bentonite mud. A levitation device supported on guide walls allows the maintenance in place of prefabricated panels.
• prefabricated walls have a level of finish such that they can in some cases constitute the final facing of the structure. No heavy finishing work is therefore necessary to obtain a satisfactory visual appearance on the visible part of the wall.
• prefabricated walls have drawbacks that prevent their implementation in certain types of structures and in particular large structures. Indeed, there is currently no convenient way to join two prefabricated panels. The dimensions of the prefabricated panels are therefore limited by the capacity of the means of transport and lifting means, and they can be used with difficulty on high-rise structures. Moreover, given the weight of the panels, reinforcement of the concrete at anchorages can require a very dense and very complex reinforcement.
• the present invention therefore relates to a wall that can be adapted to structures of large dimensions, resistant, and having, after execution, a sufficiently satisfactory visual appearance so that subsequent interventions of finishing are not essential.
• the subject of the invention is a process for producing a molded wall, characterized in that it comprises at least the following succession of steps:
• an L-shaped reinforcement cage is positioned in the excavation having a first portion of width adapted to the width of the excavation and intended to be positioned parallel to the bottom of the excavation and a second part of smaller width to that of said first portion intended to be leaned against the longitudinal wall of the excavation located on the opposite side to the area to be cleared, so that a free space is maintained between said second portion and the longitudinal wall of said excavation located on the side of the area to be cleared and,
• the method according to the invention combines the technique of the molded wall and that of the prefabricated wall.
• the molded wall thus obtained consists of a prefabricated facing, which covers part of one of its longitudinal faces, and a concreted part in situ, of general L-shaped profile, encasing the reinforcement cage, thus possibly waiting frames of prefabricated siding.
• This diaphragm wall thus benefits from the advantages of these two techniques. Executed conventionally by elementary panels, alternating or successive, it can be implemented over very long lengths.
• the prefabricated facing on one of the faces of the wall because of the presence of prefabricated facing on one of the faces of the wall, a visible portion having the required visual appearance can be obtained from the execution of the wall, without the need for a subsequent heavy intervention. In some cases, it is also possible that in addition to its aesthetic function, the prefabricated element also takes up some of the forces exerted on the structure.
• the positioning of the reinforcement cage inside the excavation does not need to be performed with great precision.
• the prefabricated facade (s) be (are) properly positioned (s) and, where appropriate, aligned with each other.
• the reinforcement cage is therefore first lowered into the excavation (in a single section or in successive sections, as will be described in more detail below), and then, once the cage is positioned at the interior of the excavation, the prefabricated facing is lowered, separately, in the space preserved between the least wide part of the cage (ie the second part) and the longitudinal wall of the excavation located on the side of the zone to clear.
• the positioning of the reinforcement cage inside the excavation is facilitated, particularly when the cage has a height and a high weight.
• the facing, originally independent of the reinforcement cage, is more manageable, and can thus be positioned more easily in the trench.
• two guide webs materializing the desired implantation for the diaphragm wall are made in the soil to be excavated.
• the excavation is then carried out vertically between these two guide walls.
• the guide wall located on the side of the area to be cleared is generally removed after concreting of the molded wall.
• the reinforcing cage and the facing are introduced into the excavation in the following manner: the cage is introduced into the excavation by supporting it with gripping loops provided on its upper part. It is temporarily stabilized in position in the excavation by means of bars passed in these handles and taking support transversely on the guide walls. Then we resume the maintenance of the reinforcement cage by means of a shaped rudder to clear the free space for the introduction of said prefabricated facing. Finally, the bars are removed, and the prefabricated facing is introduced into the free space of the excavation.
• the surface of the prefabricated facing intended to be oriented towards the zone to be cleared of a protection is coated before positioning the prefabricated facing in the excavation. This protection can be removed after clearing. It avoids the smearing of the visible face of the prefabricated facing, in particular by avoiding that concrete bypass comes to adhere to it.
• the lower part of the prefabricated facing is beveled lengthwise, and the prefabricated facing is positioned in the excavation so that the bevelled portion is oriented towards the inside of the molded wall.
• This arrangement allows the concrete to flow more easily at the lower part of the prefabricated facing, and thus avoid poor contact between the concrete and the prefabricated facing in this area.
• the concrete tends to push the facing against the wall guide, towards the area to clear and not to the inside of the excavation. The probability that the siding deviates is, therefore, limited.
• the prefabricated facing comprises reinforcing bars on its lower end face and when the prefabricated facing is positioned in the excavation, these waiting frames are mixed with the reinforcements of the first part. of the reinforcement cage. This prevents a separation between the facing and the concrete portion of the molded wall.
