Study on the effect of tower foundation landslide protection measures based on a physical model test
Abstract
A large number of high voltage transmission tower foundations crossing mountainous and hilly areas are often located in high-prone slope areas of landslide disasters. Applying appropriate protective measures to improve their stability is the key to ensuring the continuous and safe operation of transmission lines. To study the protection effect of different protection measures on the tower foundation landslide, this paper takes the Yanzi landslide in Badong County, Hubei Province as a geological prototype, designs and produces a physical test model, and carries out physical model tests of the landslide under extreme rainfall conditions(50, 100 mm/h) without protection, applying anti-slide piles and lattice protection. The deformation and failure characteristics of the landslide and the protective effect of different protective measures are revealed from the experimental point of view. The results show that under two extreme conditions, the unprotected landslide experienced the evolution process of slope surface erosion, crack propagation, local collapse and deformation, and overall sliding. The anti-slide pile measures have a significant effect on the overall protection of the landslide. The landslide is in a stable state, the deformation of the tower foundation is small, and the inclination rate of the tower meets the specification, but the slope surface will be scoured and collapsed. Lattice slope protection measures can effectively reduce the risk of slope erosion and slope toe collapse, but the overall stabilization of the tower foundation under continuous heavy rainfall is slightly weaker. The model test results are consistent with the historical deformation of the landslide and the actual treatment effect. The test conclusions can provide a reference for the failure mechanism research and protection engineering design of similar tower foundation landslides.
