Cleaning steps after the wet spraying trolley operation
As a key equipment for concrete spraying operations, the daily cleaning and maintenance of the wet spraying trolley is essential to ensure construction efficiency and equipment life. The correct cleaning steps can not only effectively remove the residual concrete, but also avoid pipe blockage and ensure the normal operation of the equipment. The following is a comprehensive wet spraying trolley cleaning process, which aims to help operators quickly master cleaning skills and improve work efficiency.
I. Cleaning steps after the operation
1. Pipeline and pump hopper cleaning: After the work is completed, start the cleaning procedure immediately. First, clean all pipelines and pump hoppers and piston cylinders to prevent concrete hardening and blockage.
2. Pump hopper cleaning: Open the lower door of the pump hopper and thoroughly remove the concrete residue in the hopper. Then, close the lower door, fill it with water, insert the cleaning ball into the pipe, and start the pump until the cleaning ball and clean water flow out to ensure that the interior is clean and free of residue.
3. Pipeline disassembly and cleaning: Remove all pipelines and rinse thoroughly with water until the water flow is clear to ensure that the inside of the pipeline is clean and unblocked.
4. Nozzle and pipeline cleaning: Design an end cap that matches the size of the nozzle and put it on the front end of the pipeline as a plug. Disassemble the connecting elbow, open the air source, and use compressed air to spray the concrete in the pipeline from the front end. At the same time, add water and cleaning balls into the pipe, and rinse repeatedly to ensure that there are no staff around to avoid safety risks.
5. Discharge port and S swing pipe cleaning: Open the discharge door, rinse with water, start the reverse pump switch, rinse the discharge port with water, and ensure that the pump S swing pipe is clean to avoid residues affecting the next use.
II. Cleaning tips
· Regular inspection: Regularly check the wear of the pipeline and pump, and replace the worn parts in time to avoid losing the big because of the small.
· Use special cleaning agent: On the basis of water washing, the use of special cleaning agent can more thoroughly remove concrete residues and reduce the number of cleaning times.
· Safety first: Before any cleaning operation, confirm that the equipment has been powered off to ensure the safety of the operator.
Through the above cleaning process, not only can the service life of the wet spraying trolley be extended, but also the construction efficiency can be improved and the failure rate can be reduced. Regular maintenance and cleaning are important links in equipment management that cannot be ignored.
How to choose the right water-cement ratio when spraying concrete?
Choosing the right water-cement ratio is one of the key technical points in the construction of sprayed concrete, which directly affects the fluidity, adhesion, strength and final construction effect of concrete. The following aspects should be considered to reasonably determine the water-cement ratio:
1. Design requirements: First of all, the design documents and relevant specifications of the project should be followed to clarify the expected strength grade and other performance indicators of the concrete, which is the basis for selecting the water-cement ratio.
2. Construction conditions:
- Type of spraying equipment: Different spraying equipment has different requirements for the rheological properties of concrete. Some equipment may be more suitable for thinner (higher water-cement ratio) concrete, while others are suitable for thicker (lower water-cement ratio).
- Spraying height and distance: When spraying over long distances or at high altitudes, a higher water-cement ratio may be more helpful in maintaining the fluidity of concrete and facilitate long-distance transmission.
- Spraying area shape: Spraying on complex curved surfaces or narrow spaces may require higher viscosity (i.e., lower water-cement ratio) to help the concrete fit and hang on the wall better.
3. Raw material properties:
- Aggregate type, particle size and gradation;
- Cement type. Different types of cement have different water absorption and different requirements for water-cement ratio;
- The influence of admixtures, especially plasticizers and water reducers, can significantly change the workability and strength performance of concrete.
4. Experimental verification: In addition to theoretical calculations and design guidance, trial mixing before actual construction is a very necessary step. By making test blocks, their physical and mechanical properties, such as compressive strength and elastic modulus, are measured, and the construction performance of concrete, such as slump, cohesion and water retention, are observed at the same time, which is used as an important basis for adjusting the water-cement ratio.
5. Site conditions: Taking into account environmental factors such as temperature and humidity on the day of construction, changes in these natural conditions will affect the initial setting time and hardening speed of concrete, and thus affect the choice of water-cement ratio.
6. Safety considerations: Safety is always the primary principle, especially in spraying operations. Although too high a water-cement ratio improves the fluidity of concrete, it may sacrifice long-term structural stability and safety.
In summary, choosing the right water-cement ratio requires comprehensive consideration of many factors, and the most suitable ratio is determined through scientific calculations, laboratory tests, and rich practical experience. In addition, continuous on-site monitoring and timely fine-tuning are also indispensable to ensure the quality of shotcrete construction.
What is the dark excavation method? Advantages and disadvantages of the dark excavation method
What is the dark excavation method? The dark excavation method, also known as the tunneling method or underground excavation method, refers to a construction method that uses special equipment to dig and support underground without damaging the ground. It occupies an important position in urban underground projects, especially in areas with heavy traffic and dense buildings.
Advantages

What is the difference between the construction process of shotcrete lining and open cut method?
Regarding the difference between the construction process of shotcrete lining and open cut method, we must first understand the construction process of the two, and then compare them.
I. Construction process of shotcrete lining
Shotcrete lining is usually constructed using the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM), and its construction process mainly includes the following steps:
1. Excavation: Use drilling and blasting method, tunnel boring machine method or other suitable excavation methods to excavate the tunnel according to the designed section size.
2. Initial support: Initial support is carried out immediately after excavation, including spraying concrete, installing anchor rods and steel mesh to control the deformation of the surrounding rock and ensure construction safety.
3. Monitoring and feedback: By installing monitoring instruments, the deformation of the surrounding rock and support structure is continuously monitored, and the construction parameters are adjusted according to the monitoring data to ensure support safety.
4. Secondary lining: After the initial support is stable, the secondary lining is applied according to the geological conditions and design requirements to form a composite lining structure to enhance the overall stability and waterproof performance of the tunnel.
5. Waterproof layer construction: Lay a waterproof layer on the inner side of the secondary lining to prevent groundwater penetration and protect the lining structure.
6. Installation of auxiliary facilities: Including the installation of drainage, ventilation, lighting, monitoring and other systems to improve the tunnel function.
II. Open-cut construction process
The open-cut construction process is relatively direct, mainly including:
1. Ground preparation: Clear ground obstacles, carry out fencing and traffic diversion in the construction area to ensure construction safety.
2. Excavation: Use excavators, bulldozers and other equipment to excavate from the ground to the designed depth to form a foundation pit.
3. Support: During or after the excavation, support is carried out, including piling, grouting, and support installation to prevent the collapse of the foundation pit.
4. Waterproof layer construction: Lay a waterproof layer on the bottom and side walls of the foundation pit to prevent groundwater penetration.
5. Underground structure construction: Pour concrete in the foundation pit and construct the underground structure, including the bottom plate, side wall and top plate.
6. Backfill and restoration: After the construction of underground structure is completed, the foundation pit is backfilled and the ground is restored, including roads, greening, etc.
III. The main differences between shotcrete lining and open cut method in the construction process are:
1. Excavation and support method: shotcrete lining is supported immediately after excavation, while open cut method is supported after excavation.
2. Construction environment: shotcrete lining is suitable for underground excavation, while open cut method is carried out on the ground.
3. Construction sequence: shotcrete lining is a dynamic construction, and the construction strategy is adjusted according to the monitoring data; the open cut method has a more fixed sequence, from ground excavation to underground structure construction.
These differences reflect the applicable scenarios and characteristics of the two construction methods. The choice of which method should be based on the geological conditions, environmental requirements and cost-benefit analysis of the specific project.
How does a rock drilling rig work? Analysis of the working principle of a rock drilling rig
How does a rock drilling rig work? The working principle of a rock drilling rig is to drill holes in various directions at any part of the tunnel section through the mutual cooperation of the thruster, drill arm, slewing mechanism and translation mechanism. Specifically, the working principle of a rock drilling rig is as follows:
1. Thruster: When preparing to drill a hole, it enables the rock drill to quickly drive toward (or retreat from) the working face, and gives the rock drill a certain axial thrust when drilling. The operation of the thruster should be reversible, and the axial thrust and propulsion speed it generates should be adjustable at will so that the rock drill can work under the optimal axial thrust state.
2. Drill arm: It is the working arm that supports the rock drill. Its structure and size, flexibility and reliability of movement, etc. will affect the scope of application and production capacity of the rock drilling rig. The movement mode of the drill arm is rectangular coordinate type. The swing arm cylinder can be used to swing the swivel sleeve and the drill arm and the support arm cylinder hinged thereon around the axis of the swivel column left and right; the support arm cylinder can be used to swing the drill arm up and down around the hinge point, so that the propeller hinged to the front end of the drill arm can be used to swing up and down and left and right.
3. Rotation mechanism: It can be mainly divided into swing type swivel column, spiral sub-type swivel column, and polar coordinate drill arm rotation mechanism. The structural feature of the swing type swivel column is that there is a rotatable sleeve outside the swivel column shaft. The lower end of the drill arm and the lower hinge of the support arm cylinder are respectively hinged to the sleeve, and the swing arm cylinder is used to swing the sleeve around the swivel column, thereby driving the drill arm to swing left and right.
4. Translation mechanism: Through the hydraulic translation mechanism, parallel drilling holes can be obtained. When the pitch cylinder and the swing angle cylinder are controlled separately, inclined holes with a certain angle can be drilled. The propeller is flipped around the axis of the cylinder by flipping the cylinder to obtain drilling holes close to the sides and bottom of the tunnel.
When the rock drilling rig is working, it first pushes the rock drill toward the working surface through the thruster, and then adjusts the position and angle of the rock drill through the drill arm and the slewing mechanism to align it with the drilling position. Then, the rock drill starts to work and drills holes in the rock through impact and slewing movements. During the drilling process, the flushing mechanism will continuously inject water or air into the borehole to remove rock chips and dust in the borehole. Finally, when the drilling is completed, the rock drilling rig will withdraw the rock drill from the borehole and move to the next drilling position to start a new drilling operation.

3. Efficient support mechanism: With intelligent control system, it can automatically adjust the support strength according to the real-time monitored geological data, effectively maintaining the safety and stability of the tunnel structure.
4. Accurate guidance control: Integrating advanced navigation and positioning technology to ensure that the tunnel is excavated accurately along the predetermined route, reduce deviations and heavy work, and improve overall engineering efficiency.
II. Scope of application and application scenarios
Due to its excellent performance, the composite TBM has shown irreplaceable value in the following fields:
1. Complex and changeable geological conditions
In tunnel projects with frequently changing geological conditions, such as projects that need to cross multiple rock formations or water-bearing formations, the composite TBM can quickly switch working modes according to different geology, greatly reducing the difficulty of construction.
2. Projects with alternating hard and soft rock
Some tunnel projects involve frequent switching between hard and soft rock, such as crossing mountains or mixed geological layers under cities. The composite TBM can easily cope with this challenge with its flexible cutting head design and propulsion system.
3. Construction that requires rapid adaptation to geological changes
In some specific tunnel projects, due to tight construction schedules or high uncertainty in geological conditions, the composite TBM can quickly adjust its working mode to ensure that the project progress is not delayed and improve construction efficiency. The strong environmental adaptability and flexibility of the composite TBM make it one of the preferred solutions.
The composite TBM has become an important tool in the field of tunneling with its high flexibility, strong geological adaptability and intelligent control system. Its emergence not only improves the efficiency of tunnel construction, but also provides a safer and more reliable solution for projects facing complex geological conditions.
