Abstract:

For the problems of unreasonable force and large deformation of traditional antislide structure system, three new arch antislide pile-wall structure systems are designed for a loess landslide treatment project in Northern Shanxi province. The working performances of four kinds of antislide structures are numerically simulated and analyzed to realize the optimization of the antislide structure system. The results show that the arch antislide pile-wall structure system is a rigid connection between the piles and cap beam, and the antislide pile, cap beam, and sliding bed soil form a spatial nearly rigid structure. Cap beam can better transfer the bending moment generated by the larger thrust in the landslide middle to the piles with less force on both sides of the landslide, so that the stress and deformation of the whole antislide system tend to be uniform, which makes the antislide system “joint operation.” And this structural form increases the overall stiffness and bending capacity and reduces the possibility that the middle pile is destroyed first and loses its working capacity due to large thrust. Compared with the traditional antislide structure system (Model-1), the average displacement of the pile head is reduced by about 60%, and the total control bending moment of the system is reduced by about 6%. The purpose of Model-3 and Model-4 (anchorage arch antislide pile-wall structure system and pull-rod arch antislide pile-wall structure system) is to restrict the deformation of cap beam in both positive and negative directions of x -axis in arch antislide pile-wall structure system, which plays a certain role in coordinating the deformation of antislide structure and better coordinating the stress of each pile. The arch antislide pile-wall structure system (Model-2), anchorage arch antislide pile-wall structure system (Model-3), and pull-rod arch antislide pile-wall structure system (Model-4) can better adapt and adjust the unbalanced thrust between the landslide piles; therefore, they have higher structural robustness than that of traditional antislide structure system. When achieving the management target with a 95% structural reliability probability of the same landslide, the structural robust degrees of Model-1, Model-2, and Model-4 are 0.58, 0.76, and 0.81, respectively. Therefore, the pull-rod arch antislide pile-wall structure system (Model-4) has the best performance among the other antislide structures. These studies lay a foundation for the engineering structural optimization of arch antislide pile-wall structure system.
