Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a method for filling deformable karst cave and is applicable to filling and reinforcement of the karst cave during excavation and construction of a tunnel at a karst area. The present invention may efficiently stabilize the karst cave, ensure safety construction of the tunnel and stabilization of surrounding rocks, reduce influences of the karst cave on tunnel construction and later operations, may reduce engineering construction costs and improve an engineering construction speed, and belongs to the field of underground engineering.


BACKGROUND

With the development of transportation power construction of China, a scale of tunnel construction involved in highway, railway and urban rail transit engineering is expanding, and the tunnel engineering construction inevitably passes through high-risk karst areas; karst caves have great hidden dangers to the safety of the tunnel engineering construction, and need to be filled and reinforced in an early stage; and if the karst caves cannot be effectively filled and reinforced, it is very easy to cause collapse of surrounding rocks or a bottom bearing stratum during excavation and construction of the tunnel, resulting in the burial of excavation machines or personnel, and endangering life safety of builders. However, a traditional karst cave filling method during the tunnel construction at the karst area is to use a grouting process to reinforce the karst cave by filling grout or mortar into the karst cave. This method has a long grouting time and large consumption of materials, and it is not easy to form a filling and reinforcement region in case of encountering a groundwater rich area; and if block stones can be put into the karst cave and then seriflux is injected into the karst cave, a complementary reinforcement effect between different sizes of block stones and the seriflux may be better implemented, and a filling and reinforcement effect of the karst cave may be improved more effectively. However, the size of the diameter of a grouting hole limits a passing property of the block stones, and only small size of block stones can be filled into the karst cave through the grouting hole, but a filling effect is not ideal.


Therefore, based on the limit of the diameter of the grouting hole and a deformable body theory, there is provided a technology for filling a deformable “block stone like” karst cave, the technology including a deformable bracket, an elastic silicone tube, a lock apparatus, and a filling material. The deformable bracket may pass through a limited space of the grouting hole and may be propped up to form a bracket with the filling of the filling material in the karst cave; the elastic silicone tube is a long film tube made of an elastic silicone material, and the long tube may be propped up without breaking with the filling of the filling material; the lock apparatus may cut the elastic silicone tube and implement sealing of the opening of the tube; and the filling material is that: silicate resin materials are filled into the elastic silicone tube first to implement fast expansion and reinforcement, and then a proper amount of grout is injected to implement the “block stone like” structure. The apparatus may efficiently stabilize the karst cave, ensure safety construction of the tunnel and stabilization of surrounding rocks, reduce influences of the karst cave on tunnel construction and later operations, and may reduce engineering construction costs and improve an engineering construction speed.

    • (8) lowering the elastic silicone tube and the deformable bracket by 10 cm along the grouting pipe;
    • (9) the console controlling the circumferential lock apparatus by means of the pipeline, to implement that the circumferential lock close insert closely seals the elastic silicone tube;

    • (2) injecting the steel fiber and the grout into the elastic silicone tube to complete the filling after being stirred evenly at a mass ratio of 1:10.
