Research on Construction Technology of Embankment Widening of Waterside Cantilever High Retaining Wall

Abstract:

In the project of the fill section widening of the cantilever high retaining wall of the old embankment, the construction of the embankment widening is carried out under the condition of allowing cars to drive through. As the stability of the old embankment and the normal and safe car driving shall be guaranteed, the cantilever reinforcement high retaining wall can’t be dismantled once for all or completely during the widening process, and the conventional construction of excavating the steps for joining the new and old embankments. This paper aims to solve the defects of the conventional construction method by introducing a newly-developed construction technology of embankment widening of waterside cantilever high retaining wall, which can effectively solve the anti-floating problem of the light-weight embankment, prevent the differential deformation at the joint of the wall bottom plate and the reinforced concrete continuous slab of the cantilever retaining wall, and improve the bearing capacity of the embankment.
