PrefaceAs a key part of road and bridge projects, bridge engineering is generally a major difficulty and focus in construction organization and management regarding schedule, quality, and safety, and it is receiving increasing attention. With advances in bridge construction technology, through scientific and reasonable design, careful construction organization, and standardized construction processes, more and more common quality defects are disappearing. Based on actual site conditions, this article mainly discusses with you several main quality control points and measures that generally exist in current bridge construction.

1. Prevention and control measures for pile foundation deviation
Before construction, the site shall be leveled and compacted, and backfill soil shall be tamped densely. During construction, the verticality of the drill pipe shall be checked frequently; the construction site shall be reasonably arranged to prevent vehicles from running over the ground beside the set pile positions; if displacement occurs, the positions shall be re-set out and rechecked; benchmark points shall be set at locations unaffected by construction and strictly protected from impact and damage, and the benchmark points shall be periodically rechecked during construction.

2. Deviation in installation of reinforcement cages

Precise and efficient positioning tool for reinforcement cagesThrough connecting rebars of a certain length, sleeves, and positioning cross-shaped steel rings, the reinforcement cage can be positioned quickly and accurately, improving the installation quality of the reinforcement cage. At the same time, the tool can be reused, effectively saving project costs.

3. Fabrication of pile foundation reinforcement cages

During the fabrication of pile foundation reinforcement cages for bridges in highway or municipal engineering, construction sites often use fixed metal supports to support and fix the pile foundation reinforcement cage for fabrication. However, when welding the bottom of the reinforcement cage, operation is inconvenient due to the low position, so the construction site requires a convenient-to-operateauxiliary device for fabrication of pile foundation reinforcement cagesto improve on-site construction efficiency and convenience.

The auxiliary device for fabrication of pile foundation reinforcement cages can conveniently fabricate the entire circumference of the pile foundation reinforcement cage, thereby solving problems such as dead zones in fabrication caused by the low position of the pile foundation reinforcement cage with traditional fixed supports, and improving on-site construction efficiency and convenience. Compared with other construction methods, it can greatly improve construction safety and social stability, and to a certain extent accelerate construction progress and increase returns.

4. Control of over-casting elevation of pile foundation concrete

Pile foundationgrouting control alarm deviceuses a sensor to detect when the laitance layer reaches the elevation position; a yellow light flashes and sounds an early warning; when the concrete reaches the elevation position, a green light flashes and sounds a notification, and then concrete pouring can be stopped. It perfectly solves pain points in the construction process: solving problems such as excessive over-casting and uneven pile tops in cast-in-place pile construction, thereby achieving the purposes of avoiding concrete waste, saving costs, improving construction efficiency, and avoiding penalties.

5. Quality control of pile head breaking

The use of the "protection and rapid pile cutting mold for reserved rebars of cast-in-place pile heads" solves the drawbacks of traditional manual pile breaking and can effectively ensure the quality of pile heads and prevent reserved rebars from being contaminated.

When making the mold, the mold drawing is prepared according to the rebar layout drawing and the length of reserved rebars. The outer diameter of the pile-breaking disk is 2 cm smaller than the pile diameter, and the inner diameter is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the concrete tremie pipe. The ring is hollowed out, with holes not smaller than 5 cm, and the connection position with the rebar protection sleeve is a circular hole whose diameter matches the PVC pipe. The rebar protection sleeves are consistent with the length of the reserved rebars and are made of PVC pipes; the pipe caps match the diameter of the PVC pipes. The PVC pipes are vertically inserted into the pile-breaking disk, and the mold is then completed. The entire mold is fitted onto the top of the reinforcement cage, the PVC pipes are sleeved onto the reserved rebars, and the joints at the bottom ends of the sleeves and the rebars are tightly plugged with geotextile. The pile-breaking disk is firmly tied to the main reinforcement, and after the reinforcement cage is lifted and positioned, the pile top elevation is strictly rechecked, and the mold installation is completed. After earthwork excavation, an excavator is used to lightly tap the pile head so that the concrete at the pile-breaking disk separates; then a sling is tied to the pile head and the pile head is lifted, completing the pile cutting work.
6. Detachable tremie pipe rack

Through the application of the micro-innovation achievement "a detachable tremie pipe rack," the project solved the problem of inconvenient movement of the tremie pipe during secondary hole cleaning with a fixed tremie pipe rack. It enables the tremie pipe rack to be moved away during secondary hole cleaning, with a crane separately lifting the tremie pipe for secondary hole cleaning, making it convenient to move the tremie pipe to locations with thick sediment and improving the efficiency and quality of secondary hole cleaning.

By applying the screening bucket to an excavator, the separation of drill cuttings and mud in the mud pit during pile foundation construction can be achieved, reducing the amount of drill cuttings transported off-site and avoiding environmental pollution caused by mud overflow, thereby improving the efficiency of drill cuttings treatment. Secondly, the screening bucket converts drill cuttings such as silt and clay into mud, improving the reuse rate of drill cuttings such as silt and clay and saving mud-making materials such as bentonite. Finally, the screening bucket can wash pebbles in the mud pit clean, so that the pebbles can be used for filling construction access roads, saving the amount ofslagused for filling construction access roads.

7. Ultrasonic pile foundationhole-forming detector
It adopts ultrasonic reflection technology and uses a probe lowered into the hole to visually observe parameters such as borehole diameter, verticality, and hole wall conditions. Hole-forming monitoring can guide the construction process and provide important parameters for pile formation testing.

8. Construction method for quality control of pile foundation hole formation based on digital twins


The construction method for quality control of pile foundation hole formation based on digital twins automatically monitors the hole-forming quality indicators of cast-in-place piles through information-based hole-forming recording means, making the pile foundation construction process traceable, further improving the controllability of pile foundation hole-forming quality, and solving the dual risks of quality and cost control in existing pile foundation hole-forming operations, such as large interference from human factors, difficulty in tracing records, and difficulty in ensuring the objectivity and accuracy of construction records. It greatly saves the time required for multiple positioning and setting-out of pile foundations, substantially improves construction efficiency, and promotes transparent settlement and quality acceptance of the project's pile foundation construction.
