In construction engineering, steel structure workshop is a widely used industrial plant construction method, which has the advantages of light weight, high rigidity and good seismic performance. However, because the steel structure workshop building itself is relatively light in weight and the foundation area is large, foundation sinking is one of its common problems, which is easy to lead to building deformation and destruction, so how to prevent the steel structure foundation from sinking has become a hot topic in the field of construction engineering. Below, Xiaobian will introduce you to some measures to prevent the sinking of steel structure foundations.

Measures to prevent the sinking of steel structure foundations

1. Scientific and reasonable design

When carrying out the foundation design of steel structure workshop, it is necessary to fully investigate and design geological conditions, select the appropriate foundation type and material to adapt to the geological conditions and bearing requirements, and ensure the bearing capacity and stability of the foundation. In general, for harder foundations, shallow foundations are used, such as single-layer flat foundations or double-layer flat foundations; For looser foundations, use deep foundations, such as pile foundations or sheet pile foundations. In addition, it is necessary to comply with relevant construction standards and specifications, strengthen construction quality and management, and ensure the safety and reliability of steel structure workshops.

2. Strengthen the foundation

When building a steel structure workshop, it can be reinforced on the basis of the original foundation to improve the stability and bearing capacity of the foundation. The reinforcement method can be reinforced concrete or prestressed concrete, or ultra-high-strength steel materials can be used to reinforce. In addition, reinforcement materials such as stiffened plates, skeleton nets or fiber materials can be added to the foundation to improve the stability and compression resistance of the foundation.

3. Adopt sunken pile

Pile sinking refers to the sinking of piles in the foundation to improve the bearing capacity and stability of the foundation. In the foundation construction of steel structure workshop, piles made of reinforced concrete or steel pipes can be used to sink them into the ground, and the bearing capacity and stability of the foundation can be enhanced through the mutual support between the pile and the foundation to prevent the foundation from sinking.

4. Use pile pressing

The use of pressed piles is another effective measure to prevent the sinking of steel structure foundations. Pile pressing refers to pressing pile poles into the ground by a high-pressure machine to make them stably support the building. Usually, the foundation of the steel structure workshop is relatively strong, and smaller diameter piles can be used, which can reduce the cost and construction difficulty.

5. Control the groundwater level

The groundwater table is an important factor affecting the stability of the foundation. If the groundwater table is too high, it will cause the foundation to soften, which will cause safety problems such as subsidence. Therefore, in the construction process of the steel structure workshop, measures to reduce the groundwater level can be adopted, such as controlling the groundwater level through drainage, grouting and waterproofing to ensure the stability and safety of the foundation.

6. Adopt foundation reinforcement technology

The foundation reinforcement technology of the steel structure workshop can effectively prevent the foundation from sinking. This technology mainly enhances the bearing capacity and stability of the foundation by strengthening it. Methods for strengthening foundations include soil reinforcement, piles and underground continuous walls. Among them, underground continuous wall is a commonly used technology, which can improve the overall bearing capacity of the foundation and effectively resist soil erosion and settlement.

7. Regular inspection and maintenance during construction and use

The foundation of the building should be regularly inspected for cracks and deformations, and dealt with in time. During use, you should avoid adding too much weight to the foundation, such as adding heavy machinery and equipment or stacking multiple items. If weight must be increased, the overall stability of the building needs to be guaranteed by reinforcing the foundation or taking other measures.

In short, measures to prevent the sinking of steel structure foundations are a complex and important task that needs to be considered by many factors. In the construction and maintenance of the foundation, a series of measures need to be taken to prevent the foundation from sinking and ensure the long-term stability of the steel structure workshop. Through scientific and reasonable design, construction and maintenance, we can better play the advantages of steel structure workshops and make greater contributions to industrial production and economic development.
