Perpendicularity of a plant frame column or a bridge pier is observed as below. In the lift-up, leveling and reinforcing process of the bearing platform, a precise theodolite is adopted to observe the perpendicularity of the frame columns or the piers in real time, and cross observation is conducted in two directions, to avoid the inclination phenomenon.

The grouting slurry used for the primary grouting and the secondary grouting can be any one of the slurries in the prior art as long as the slurries satisfy the requirements of the initial setting time and has a good permeability.


Furthermore, in order to prevent the grouting slurry from setting in the pipe, a two-component composite slurry, i.e., Slurry A and Slurry B, is adopted. The two kinds of slurry respectively arrive at a slurry outlet of a grouting pipe from different channels of the drill rod, press the slurry with different components into a soil body at the slurry outlet and converge to react and solidify, and complete initial setting within a short time.


The following slurry formulation can be used: Slurry A is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 70 parts to 90 parts of metal oxide and/or metal hydroxide, 0.5 parts to 1.2 parts of composite retarder, 0.5 parts to 0.7 parts of water reducing agent, 0.7 parts to 1.5 parts of acid base buffer, 3 parts to 5 parts of composite stabilizer, and 0.5 parts to 1.5 parts of composite surfactant. The metal oxide can be a combination of any two of magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, magnesium phosphate, and the like. The composite retarder is at least two of urea, borax and sodium tripolyphosphate. The water reducing agent can be a polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent or a naphthalene water reducing agent.

The composite surfactant is at least two of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether, benzylphenol polyoxyethylene ether and alkyl sulfonate. When two or more different materials are to be used in each of the above individual components, materials in equal order of magnitude can be formulated, and the two materials are mainly used for preventing one of the materials from losing efficacy, so that the effect of the whole composite slurry is more stable.

The difference of the initial setting time of the composite slurry is mainly realized by adjusting the specific gravity of the composite retarder.


The technical solutions according to the present application aims to generate an uneven settlement based on a pile foundation with a bearing platform of an existing building, and provide a pile foundation bearing platform settlement, reinforcement, lift-up and leveling technology. The reinforcement and lift-up method is used for construction. Specifically, new technological processes, such as “lift-up and leveling of the bearing platform”, and “consolidation reinforcement of the pile tip bearing stratum” are comprehensively applied, the lower portion of the bearing platform forms an enlarged composite foundation bearing body, and the strength of the pile tip bearing stratum is increased, so that the upper load can be uniformly transmitted to the bearing stratum. Technical solutions according to the present application successfully solves the objectives of pile foundation bearing platform settlement, lift-up and leveling in an industrial plant, or a bridge, so as to achieve the requirements of the foundation bearing force and allow the bearing platform to be within a designed allowable settlement deviation range.


It should be pointed out that, for grouting reinforcement in the prior art, due to the fact that a bearing platform, the bottom of a pile foundation and surrounding soil can be softened after grouting, the initial setting time of grouting is long, and before grouting liquid is not solidified, the bearing platform and the pile foundation can settle faster. However, according to the technical solutions of the present application, settlement of the bearing platform in the grouting process is effectively prevented by means of the properties of rapid solidification and good permeability of the grouting slurry. When the bearing platform is lifted in the primary grouting, due to the fact that rapidly-solidified slurry is continuously grouted into the soil layer, the surrounding soil body is pressed, and the bearing platform is lifted as the slurry is continuously grouted and solidified.


The technical solutions of the present application are achieved by the following: 1) the lift-up and leveling of the bearing platform: firstly, the weak soil layer under the bearing platform of the pile foundation is reinforced by compaction grouting, the slurry is filled and densified, so as to improve the density and strength of the weak soil layer, increase the wrapping force of the soil layer around the pile to the pile, and then the grouting pressure is appropriately increased, an upward counter force is formed, to slowly lift up the bearing platform of the pile foundation to a designed allowable deviation range. 2) Pressure-grouting reinforcement of the pile tip bearing stratum: after the lift-up and leveling of the bearing platform, a weak interlayer will exist between the pile tip and the pile tip bearing stratum. After the composite foundation of the bearing platform is solidified and formed with strength, continue to drill downward to the pile tip bearing stratum, and reinforce the pile tip bearing stratum by pressure-grouting, so as to avoid the resettlement of the pile foundation again. The objectives of lifting up, leveling and stabilizing of the foundation are achieved.


The technical solutions of the present application are achieved by the following steps: 1) a reinforced concrete detector is adopted and mainly used for detecting the distribution condition of bearing platform steel bars, and the steel bars are avoided when holes are formed, avoiding damage to the steel bars during hole-defining. 2) Holes (2-4 hole sites arranged) are arranged symmetrically on both sides of the pile foundation, and a dedicated drilling rig, which can be a water drill, is selected to form holes with a diameter of 42 mm. 3) After the holes are formed, a drilling and grouting all-in-one machine is selected to perform drilling and grouting in a weak soil stratum to slowly lift up the bearing platform of the pile foundation to an allowable deviation range. 4) After the bearing platform is stable, holes are continuously drilled downward to the pile tip, and the pile tip bearing stratum is reinforced by pressure-grouting, thereby increasing the bearing force of the pile tip bearing stratum.


According to the solutions of the present application, the overall construction process is drilling and grouting integrated advancing type layered grouting reinforcement and lift-up, and the reinforcement depth is layered downward from shallow to deep. The first grouting section is 1.0 m to 2.0 m, and in the first grouting section, the high-pressure is applied to lift up and level the bearing platform. The second grouting section to the fourth grouting section are about 1.0 m respectively, and mainly used to reinforce a soft soil layer around a pile, stabilize a bearing platform and increase the wrapping force of the soil layer around the pile to the pile. Finally, the holes are drilled to the pile tip bearing stratum, so as to reinforce the weak interlayer between the pile tip and the pile tip bearing stratum by pressure-grouting and improve the bearing force of the pile tip bearing stratum. After the first grouting section is completed, the layered drilling and grouting is continuously performed, downward and sectionally, so as to complete reinforcement, lift-up and leveling of the pile foundation. The hole sites provided in the present application are arranged symmetrically and drilled simultaneously to avoid pile foundation deviation caused by uneven force during pressure grouting.


According to the technical solutions provided in the present application, the drilled holes have a diameter of 42 mm. Small-diameter holes have less damage and are easy to recover. The construction working surfaces are small, dual effects of improving the foundation bearing force and lift-up and leveling can be achieved without influencing normal operation.


It should be noted that the relational terms, such as first and second, and the like as used herein are used solely to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply that there is any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Besides, the terms “comprise”, “include” or any variations thereof as used herein are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or device that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or device.
