(54) Based on superimposed settlement of unit nodes, a total settlement deformation S.sub.x of any vertical section in the longitudinal length direction of the subgrade is calculated by Equation (9):
(55)
(56) Equations (3) to (5) are used for calculating the rebound deformation of the subgrade workspace under the action of the dynamic stress; Equation (6) is used for calculating the total settlement value of the subgrade workspace under the action of the dynamic stress; Equation (7) is used for calculating the total settlement value on the vertical section of the subgrade non-workspace under the action of the self-weight stress; and Equation (9) is used for calculating the total settlement deformation in the longitudinal length direction of the subgrade (including the subgrade workspace and the subgrade non-workspace). These strain prediction models and settlement calculation equations all have test basis and are close to actual situations.
(57) The calculation of the total settlement deformation S.sub.x of the subgrade in S5 includes the rebound deformation and the settlement deformation of the subgrade workspace under the action of the dynamic stress and the settlement deformation of the subgrade non-workspace under the action of the self-weight stress.
(58) In step S6, a two-dimensional finite element numerical model of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment at different heights and slopes is established by using the ABAQUS finite element software with an embankment height set to 15 m and with no consideration of the action of a dynamic stress, and parameters such as a vertical self-weight stress, a lateral self-weight stress, and shear stress of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment at different positions are analyzed. The cohesive force c and the internal friction angle are obtained by step S2, and the shear strength envelope (=0.379+13.02) of the pre-disintegrated soft rock with the compaction degree of 96% is plotted. A maximum normal stress and a minimum normal stress on the soil mass at a different position of the embankment are then obtained by numerical simulation. The shear failure ratio F of the embankment at each position is calculated by Equation (10), as shown in
(59)
(60) where r represents a radius of a Mohr's' stress circle of the embankment soil mass plotted in a current stress state, and R represents a vertical distance of a center of the Mohr's' stress circle to a shear strength envelope.
(61) According to the distribution rule of the shear failure ratios of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment under conditions such as different heights and slopes, the zone in which the shear failure ratio is greater than a fixed value (with reference to the Specifications for Design of Highway Subgrades JTGD30-2019, the safety factor of embankment is not less than 1.2, which is 20% higher than the critical value 1.0, and a fixed value of the shear failure ratio is determined to be 20% lower than the critical value 1.0, i.e., the fixed value of the shear failure ratio is 0.8) is defined as the shear control zone, as shown in
(62) In step S7, with consideration of a thickness of compaction in layers and an operation width of a compacting machine (taking ZN390B compacting machinery as an example, the operation width is 1.2 m and the thickness of compaction in layers is 0.3 m) in the filling process of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment, the embankment shear control zone is divided into a plurality of zones according to the width of 1.2 m and the height of 0.3 m, and with the shear failure ratio 0.8 as a target value, combined with shear failure ratio peaks of the different zones within the shear control zone, inversion is performed on the shear parameter design values of the different zones within the shear control zone. A modifying mixing ratio design is carried out for the pre-disintegrated soft rock, and the shear failure ratio F is caused to be less than the designed safe value 0.8 by increasing the cohesive force c and the internal friction angle thereof, thus ensuring the safety and stability of the embankment.
(63) For the settlement control zone, with reference to the Specifications for Design of Highway Subgrades (JTGD30-2015), the highway grade is heavy duty, and the subgrade deformation design value is 20 mm. That is, an inversion parameter is subgrade settlement deformation value 20 mm, and with this as an indicator, a suitable compaction degree of filling mass, grouting pressure, and distance to a grouting pipe are selected to reduce the subgrade settlement deformation, thereby meeting requirements of the specification.
(64) Inversion parameters of the shear-settlement control zone are shear failure ratio 0.8 and subgrade settlement deformation value 20 mm. Firstly, when the shear failure ratio is less than 0.8 and the subgrade settlement deformation value is less than 20 mm, it indicates that requirements of the specification are met. Secondly, various design parameters are regulated by the inversion parameters. For example, the shear failure ratio is used to obtain a suitable mixing amount of cement by Equation (13), and the subgrade settlement deformation value is used for selecting the filling mass compaction degree, the grouting pressure, and the distance to a grouting pipe.
(65) A treatment method for the embankment shear control zone is as follows:
(66) The pre-disintegrated soft rock obtained in step S1 is mixed with different proportions of cement, and specific proportions are 0%, 1%, 2%, 4%, and 8%, and samples are prepared by the stratified sample compression method. The static triaxial test is conducted on each prepared sample under test conditions of different confining pressures to obtain the cohesive force c and the internal friction angle of the modified soil mass.
(67) The static triaxial test is the consolidated-undrained static triaxial test in which the compaction degree of the sample is 96% and the confining pressures are set to 10 kPa, 20 kPa, 30 kPa, 40 kPa, and 50 kPa.
(68) By processing the test data, respective relationships of the cohesive force c and the internal friction angle of the modified soil mass with a mixing amount are obtained, and corresponding functions are fitted by data analysis software, as shown in
(69) The respective fitted curve functions of the cohesive force c and the internal friction angle of the modified soil mass with a mixing amount are as follows:
(70)
(71) where c represents the cohesive force after modification; represents the internal friction angle after modification; and x represents the mixing amount, x[1%, 8%].
(72) The prediction model for a shear failure ratio under the influence of different mixing amounts is established according to the relationships of the cohesive force c and the internal friction angle with the shear failure ratio F in the modification test, as shown in Equation (13):
(73)
(74) where r represents the radius of the Mohr's stress circle of the embankment soil mass plotted in the current stress state, and R represents the vertical distance of the center of the Mohr's stress circle to the shear strength envelope,
(75)
.sub.max representing a maximum principal stress on the soil mass at the current position and .sub.min representing a minimum principal stress on the soil mass at the current position.
(76) Equation (13) is the basis for inversion of the shear control zone, and the stress state of the soil mass at a position is determined. Therefore, the shear failure ratio of this position may be calculated. If the shear failure ratio of this position does not meet the requirement, the cohesive force and the internal friction angle of the soil mass may be increased by means of mixing cement for modification, thus meeting requirements of the specification. Inversion is performed via Equation (13) with the shear failure ratio of 0.8, to calculate an optimal mixing amount of cement x.
(77) For the shear control zone, a diagram illustrating a shear parameter of the embankment shear control zone is shown in
(78) The maximum principal stress .sub.max on the node 1-1-4 is equal to 31.76 MPa and the minimum principal stress .sub.min is equal to 91.15 MPa. By substituting data of the node 1-1-4 into Equation (13), the optimal mixing amount for modifying the soil mass with cement is obtained as 1% by inversion. After modification, the shear failure ratio F of this node is 0.64, which is less than the designed safe value 0.8 and meets the requirement.
(79) The treatment method for the embankment settlement control zone is as follows:
(80) Tests with respect to the basic physical and mechanical properties of a modified grouting material are conducted. In the tests, a water cement ratio is set to 0.5:1, flyash contents are set to 5%, 10%, 20%, and 30%, and curing times are set to 3 days, 7 days, and 28 days, and thus, 9 groups of different tests are designed with respect to viscosity, fluidity, bleeding ratio, stone rate, and cube crushing strength.
(81) By analyzing the test results of these groups, according to a relationship between a flyash content and grouting performance, a mixing ratio of water, cement and flyash in the grouting material is 0.5:1:0.1.
(82) A grouting filling test with pre-disintegrated soft rock filling mass is conducted. The compaction degree of the pre-disintegrated soft rock filling mass is considered as 90%, 93%, and 96% separately. A grouting pressure form is constant-pressure grouting, and the maximum pressure of the constant-pressure grouting is considered as 0.2 MPa, 0.4 MPa, 0.6 MPa, 0.8 MPa, and 1.0 MPa separately.
(83) By coring the filling mass under different grouting parameters, filling mass samples with different distances to a grouting pipe are obtained, and the distances to the grouting pipe are 0.2 m, 0.4 m, 0.6 m, 0.8 m, and 1 m, respectively.
(84) Dynamic triaxial tests are conducted on the obtained samples with different stress ratios and confining pressures to obtain dynamic rebound modulus and permanent axial deformations of the soil mass with different grouting parameters under the action of a dynamic stress.
(85) The stress ratios are set to 1.2:1, 1.4:1, 1.6:1, 1.8:1, and 2.0:1, and the confining pressures are set to 10 kPa, 20 kPa, 30 kPa, 40 kPa, and 50 kPa.
(86) By analyzing the test data, the influences of the grouting parameters and distances to the grouting pipe on the dynamic rebound modulus of the grouting filling mass are obtained, and a prediction model for a dynamic rebound modulus of grouting filling soil mass under the action of a dynamic stress is established, as shown in Equation (14):
(87)
(88) where E.sub.0 represents an initial dynamic rebound modulus of a common group of the grouting filling mass (with the grouting pressure of 0.6 MPa, the compaction degree of 96%, the distance of 0.6 m to the grouting pipe, the stress ratio of 1.6:1, and the confining pressure of 30 kPa), E.sub.0=283.74 MPa; E.sub.1 represents the dynamic rebound modulus of the grouted embankment soil mass; k=100, N/m (k is used for eliminating units and causing the units of the equation to be 1); P represents the grouting pressure; D represents a distance between the filling mass and a grouting hole; K represents the compaction degree of the embankment soil mass; P.sub.a represents the standard atmospheric pressure;
(89)
represents the stress ratio; .sub.31 represents the confining pressure; and .sub.11 represents the axial pressure.
(90) According to the influences of the grouting parameters and the distance to the grouting pipe in the dynamic triaxial creep test, multiple non-linear regression analysis is performed on the test data, and a prediction model for a permanent strain of grouting filling soil mass under the action of a dynamic stress is established, as shown in Equation (15):
(91)
(92) where .sub.02 represents an initial plastic strain of the common group of grouting filling mass (with the grouting pressure of 0.6 MPa, the compaction degree of 96%, the distance of 0.6 m to the grouting pipe, the stress ratio of 1.6:1, and the confining pressure of 60 kPa), .sub.02=934.6810.sup.6; and .sub.2 represents the permanent strain of the grouted subgrade.
(93) A total rebound deformation value S.sub.1x on a vertical section of the grouted subgrade workspace under the action of a dynamic stress is calculated by Equation (16):
(94)
(95) where S.sub.1f represents a deformation between two adjacent nodes in the vertical section under the action of the dynamic stress;
(96) A total settlement value S.sub.2x on a vertical section of the grouted subgrade workspace under the action of a dynamic stress is calculated by Equation (17):
(97)
(98) where S.sub.2f represents a dynamic creep deformation between two adjacent nodes in the vertical section under the action of the dynamic stress; and
(99) The calculation of settlement outside the grouted subgrade workspace is identical to the calculation of settlement outside the un-grouted subgrade workspace, and the specific step is shown in S4. A total settlement deformation value S.sub.x of any vertical section in the longitudinal length direction of the grouted subgrade is calculated by Equation (18):
(100)
(101) Equation (14) to Equation (18) are used in the grouted soil mass, and Equations (1), (2), (5), (6), and (9) are used in the un-grouted soil mass. Equation (9) is used for calculating the total settlement deformation value of any vertical section in the longitudinal length direction of the subgrade. If the total settlement value is greater than 20 mm, which does not meet requirements of the specification, the subgrade settlement needs to be reduced by the grouting treatment means so as to meet requirements of the specification. The total settlement after grouting is calculated by Equation (19).
(102) By comparing the total settlement value of the un-grouted subgrade (calculated by Equation (9)) and the total settlement value of the grouted subgrade (calculated by Equation (18)), the effect of the grouting treatment means on subgrade settlement reduction may be demonstrated intuitively.
Test Example 1
(103) For the settlement control zone, the stress state of each point of the subgrade is obtained by numerical simulation in step S4. Taking a vertical section in an embankment model as an example (q=5), the vertical stress .sub.1i and the lateral stress .sub.3i of the vertical section are exported and substituted into the prediction model for a dynamic rebound modulus. A total rebound deformation value S.sub.1x on a vertical section in the subgrade workspace under the action of a dynamic stress is obtained by Equation (5). Calculation results are as shown in the following Table 1, and specific steps are as shown in S3 and S4.

(110) According to the above data, the total subgrade settlement S.sub.x of the vertical section is calculated by Equation (9) to be 30.68 mm, which is greater than 20 mm and does not meet the specified total settlement indicator. The calculation of settlement of any vertical section of the subgrade is consistent with the calculation method of settlement of this vertical section, and the total settlement of each vertical section of the subgrade is obtained by calculation, as shown in
(111) The grouting pressure is set as P=0.6 MPa and the compaction degree is set as K=96%. As subgrade settlement mostly occurs in the subgrade workspace, the grouting treatment is performed only on the subgrade workspace. As shown in

(114) According to the above data, the total settlement deformation S.sub.x of the grouted subgrade of the vertical section is calculated by Equation (18) to be 19.43 mm, which is less than 20 mm and meets the specified total settlement indicator. The calculation of settlement of any vertical section of the grouted subgrade is consistent with the calculation method of settlement of this vertical section, and the total settlement of each vertical section of the grouted subgrade is shown in
(115) The subgrade condition is evaluated from the perspective of the tensile strength of a material. By integrating settlement calculation data, a top surface node has the maximum strain value .sub.2qjmax=3.61E-04. The highway grade is heavy duty with the tensile strength of 2.0 MPa. The strength grade of lean concrete is C30 with elastic modulus E=3.3510.sup.4 MPa, and strain value .sub.d of concrete pavements at tensile limit is calculated to be 5.97E-03 (standardized pursuant to Technical Rules for Construction of Highway Cement Concrete Pavements (JTG/T F30-2014), and the strain standard value is obtained by Equation =/E). Because of .sub.2qjmax=3.61E-04<.sub.d=5.97E-03, a specified strain design value is satisfied, indicating that the cement stabilized base course of the pavement does not crack and is in good condition.
(116) In this test example, the settlement situations of the embankment settlement control zone before and after grouting under same working conditions are compared. The subgrade settlement before grouting does not meet requirements of the specification, and after the grouting treatment, the subgrade settlement meets requirements of the specification. The calculation process is expressed in the form of a table, which intuitively reflects the grouting effect and proves that the treatment means for the embankment settlement control zone is feasible.
Test Example 2
(117) For the shear-settlement control zone, which is taken into account as the shear control zone, on the premise of satisfying the designed safe value of the shear failure ratio, the settlement deformations of the soil mass before and after modification are compared. The pre-disintegrated soft rock obtained in step S1 is mixed with different proportions of cement, and specific proportions are 0%, 1%, 2%, 4%, and 8%, and samples are prepared by the stratified sample compression method. Static triaxial creep tests are conducted on the obtained samples with different stress ratios, compaction degrees, and confining pressures to obtain permanent axial deformations of the modified embankment soil mass under the action of a static stress.
(118) The stress ratios are set to 1.2:1, 1.4:1, 1.6:1, 1.8:1, and 2.0:1; the compaction degrees are set to 90%, 93%, and 96%; and the confining pressures are set to 10 kPa, 20 kPa, 30 kPa, 40 kPa, and 50 kPa.
(119) According to a change rule of the permanent axial deformation of the modified soil mass under conditions of different stress ratios, compaction degrees, confining pressures, and mixing amounts in the static triaxial creep tests, multiple non-linear regression analysis is performed on the test data, and a prediction model for a permanent strain of a modified subgrade under the action of a self-weight stress is established, as shown in Equation (19):
(120)
(121) where .sub.0 represents an initial plastic strain of the common group of the modified samples (with the stress ratio of 1.6:1, the confining pressure of 30 kPa, the compaction degree of 96%, and the mixing amount of 1%), .sub.0=155.4210.sup.6; and .sub.3 represents the permanent strain of the modified subgrade under the action of the self-weight stress.
(122) A total settlement S.sub.3x on a vertical section of the modified subgrade under the action of a self-weight stress is calculated by Equation (20):
(123)
(124) where S.sub.3f represents a static creep deformation between two adjacent nodes in the vertical section under the action of the self-weight stress; and
(125) In a same stress state, .sub.3<.sub.3, the settlement calculated by Equation (20) will be less than that calculated by Equation (8), indicating that the settlement of the cement modified subgrade will be less than that the unmodified subgrade on the same vertical section. Therefore, the shear-settlement control zone may be regarded as the settlement control zone provided that the shear failure ratio of the shear-settlement control zone is less than 0.8.
(126) The test example shows that the settlement of the modified subgrade also meets the requirement. The settlement of the cement modified embankment shear-settlement control zone will be less than that before modification, indicating that the influence of adding cement on settlement is positive. By regarding the shear-settlement control zone as the settlement control zone, not only is the settlement specification requirement met (provided that the shear failure ratio is satisfied, and therefore, the requirement of the shear control zone is also met), but also the settlement is less with higher safety. Since different zones have different shear failure ratio peaks, the modified soil with different mixing amounts of cement is used to fill different shear zones. Compared with a traditional modifying filling way, the amount of a traditional cementing material used may be greatly reduced in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and the construction cost of a project in terms of materials may be reduced.
(127) In the embodiments of the present disclosure, according to the shear failure ratio and settlement deformation of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment, the embankment includes the shear control zone, the settlement control zone, and the shear-settlement control zone, and the parameter design values of different zones are obtained by inversion based on the spatial function zones (the parameter of the shear control zone is a mixing amount of cement, the parameters of the settlement control zone are a filling mass compaction degree, a grouting pressure, and a distance to a grouting pipe, and the parameters of the shear-settlement control zone are all the above-mentioned parameters). According to the deformation parameter design value of the settlement control zone of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment, the optimal grouting parameters are preferred to solve the material problems of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment based on spatial function zones. The prediction models for dynamic and static creep deformations and a dynamic rebound modulus of pre-disintegrated soft rock and for a shear failure ratio under the influence of different mixing amounts are established, and the problems of the design method of the pre-disintegrated soft rock embankment structure based on spatial function zones are solved.
(128) In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the soil mass in different zones is treated by using different means. The treatment means are adjusted according to circumstances, thus not only improving the stability of the embankment but also reducing the engineering construction cost under the premise of meeting requirements of the specification. The soil mass of the cement modified shear control zone can effectively strengthen a side slope and prevent the instability failure of the side slope. The grouted filled settlement control zone can positively improve the internal compactness of the pre-disintegrated soft rock and reduce the settlement deformation of the subgrade. Moreover, when bad geological rock-soil mass is utilized to fill an embankment, compared with traditional treatment techniques such as a retaining wall, layered geogrids, and overall modification and strengthening, the embankment structure design proposed in the embodiments of the present disclosure allows different treatment means to be implemented for different zones and emphasizes acting according to circumstances. On the basis of realizing the overall safety and stability of the embankment, the construction cost is significantly reduced.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and scope of the present disclosure should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
