Development of New Type Settlement Plate in Settlement Observation on High-Speed Railway

Article Preview

Abstract:

The stability and smoothness of embankment is very important factors for the design of a new high-speed railway project. To make an accuracy prediction of the post-construction settlement, it is necessary to carry out a carefully settlement observation during the construction of embankment. The defects of traditional settlement plate, however, are well known as disturbing construction and destroyed easily by construction. In this paper, based on the application in Shi-Wu passenger dedicated line, a new type of settlement plate has been developed. The application of this new type of settlement plate in site shows that it has no any disturbs on the pavement and compaction of embankment. And measurement becomes simple and easy to operation. Accordingly, high accuracy of settlement observation can be obtained by this method, which has the value of application in high-speed railway settlement observation.
