Abstract
Most of the construction machinery for vibro-sinking stone columns, which are widely used in China, needs to be improved in terms of degree of automation. Engineering quality control is mainly carried out post-inspection; consequently, it is difficult to control the construction quality in real time. According to the construction characteristics of traditional stone column machines, we established the theory and model for the real-time monitoring of stone column construction, as well as put forward an intelligent monitoring method for stone column machines. With the comprehensive application of critical technologies such as the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurement technology, laser ranging sensors, and massive data processing, an intelligent data acquisition technique and associated monitoring equipment for stone column construction machines are developed. The data acquisition and storage of crucial construction parameters, such as pile depth, pile point co-ordinates, bearing layer current, and reverse insertion times, are realized. A large number of actual construction data are collected and the construction quality parameters of stone column machines are obtained. By comparison with third-party detection data, it is verified that the intelligent monitoring technique for stone column machines proposed in this paper is feasible.
Highlights
Stone columns are composite foundation reinforcing piles, with gravel used as the primary material
Due to the design idea of high cohesion and low coupling, the mixed development structure of B/S + C/S (Browser/Server and Client/Server) was adopted to realize the unified management and monitoring of each functional module of the stone column
RTK+ survey manual, the accuracy of the pile point co-ordinate positioning and measurement was at a centimeter level; (2) the error of measuring pile sinking depth by laser sensor was less than 0.1 m, which meets the construction technical requirements; and (3) the construction quality of the digitized construction quality monitoring system installed on the stone column construction machine was better than that of un-furnished machines in the same working area
Summary
Stone columns are composite foundation reinforcing piles, with gravel (pebble) used as the primary material. In order to monitor the construction quality of airport stone column machines accurately and quickly, it is necessary to research and develop an intelligent stone column monitoring system with the characteristics of real-time use, continuity, automation, and high accuracy It must automatically collect data and realize the real-time, dynamic, and nondestructive [4] measurement of the relevant parameters in the construction process, in order to better meet the actual needs of airport construction and management. It should realize an advancement of the stone column monitoring and control management mode from the traditional planar approach to a three-dimensional, comprehensive, and real-time information mode. If there is no special description, any “stone column” mentioned later in this paper refers to a “vibro-sinking stone column”
