摘要: 用广西南友路宁明地段“中等膨胀性土”和湖南常张路慈利地段“弱膨胀土”作路堤填料,按90%的压实度填筑,在不同排水边界条件和不同路堤边坡坡度条件下,模拟路堤在4种不同气侯条件下,通过8组膨胀土路堤模拟试验,研究得出了膨胀土路堤中土压力的变化规律:①膨胀土路堤中的土压力与路堤填料、路堤土的压实度、排水边界条件和路堤中的含水量等密切相关;②膨胀土路堤堤顶积水时,当路堤中的含水率从最佳含水率增大到饱和含水率左右时,路堤中的土压力增大0.006~0.073MPa不等;③有较高含水率(接近饱和)的膨胀土路基,在阴天、日照和降雨气候条件下膨胀土路基中的土压力变化在±0.001MPa,一般不会超过±0.002MPa;④膨胀土路堤受大气影响深度范围为2.5~3m,越靠近膨胀土路堤表面,土压力变化幅度越大;⑤膨胀土路堤中的土压力变化,由膨胀土路堤中含水率变化所引起的土体自重的变化和膨胀土在不同气候条件下不同含水率所产生膨胀土压力的变化的综合作用结果。Abstract: By eight simulated test of expansive soil roadbed, the filled soils coming from Ningming section of Nanning-Youyiguan Highway in Guangxi and Cili section of Changde-Zhangjiajie Highway in Hunan were used to simulate the influences of the drainage boundary, the density of soil, water accumulation on the top of roadbed, sunshine and precipitation. It is obtained that: ① Soil pressures in the expansive soil roadbed are related to degree of compaction, drainage boundary condition and moisture content of filled soils; ② Soil pressures increase from 0.006 MPa to 0.073 MPa, while water is accumulated on the top of roadbed and the moisture content of soil increases from optimum value to saturated; ③ In the case of the overcast sky, or under the sunshine and the precipitation, the soil pressures in the expansive soil roadbed generally rise and fall by 0.001 MPa, with the maximum rise and maximum fall of 0.002 MPa; ④ The depth of the expansive soil roadbed influenced weather is about 2.5 m to 3.0 m, the nearer to the surface of roadbed is the greater the soil pressure varies; ⑤ The variation of soil pressure equals to the sum of variation of self-weight of soil and variation of its expansive pressure, and both of the latter are induced by change of moisture content. These results are very important for design and construction of expansive soil roadbed.
