  • Patent number: 11982065
    Abstract: A method for reinforcing soft ground by post-grouting combined with pressurized vacuum preloading is proposed, by pre-burying prefabricated vertical drains and air-boosted pipes in granular material piles, and the air-boosted pipes are used as grouting pipes to reduce the number of times of piling, which not only improves the construction efficiency, but also reduces the structural disturbance of the soil and the influence of smear effect, thus reducing the impact on the radial permeability and the radial consolidation coefficients. The method does not use geotextile bags for granular materials, which can avoid the problem of forming a localized clogging area around the geotextile bags, and the method not only improves the efficiency of vacuum transfer in a pre-consolidation stage, but also improves the grouting effect in the later stage, effectively enhances the strength of soft soil and makes granular material piles and the surrounding soil form composite ground.

  • Patent number: 11920474
    Abstract: Provided are a protecting trolley and a construction method of rock burst prewarning protection system in non-contact tunnel construction. The protecting trolley includes a framework, a walking assembly, a rockfall buffering assembly, a spraying assembly and a rock burst prewarning system. The rockfall buffering assembly includes an arch frame in a fixed connection with the framework and a protecting net fixed on the arch frame. The spraying assembly includes a track car in connection with the rockfall buffering assembly and a spraying hose fixed on the track car, and the spraying hose sprays towards the surrounding rock. The rock burst prewarning assembly includes a thermosensitive infrared sensor used for detecting the temperature of the surrounding rock and a highly sensitive laser sensor used for detecting the deformation of the surrounding rock.
