Abstract
Description
- On certain types of constructions there is a requirement for an item such as a uniform straight column to be located within a shaft, pile or caisson. Generally the requirement is for the item to be positioned vertically, although other specific orientations may be required from time to time. The item is often a steel section or stanchion and can, for example, be a universal column. It can be of any cross-section. It can be made of steel, as mentioned above but can also be of reinforced concrete or plastic, or a combination of one or more of these. As an example, where cast in place piles are constructed there is sometimes a requirement to position a steel column within or extending into a pile before the concrete sets. Subsequently the steel column may be used to support loads from a structure to be built above the pile. The steel column may also be used to support horizontal beams and/or concrete slabs which may be constructed to prop the walls of a basement construction. This type of construction is known as 'top-down' construction and has time saving advantages to building contractors.
- Several methods have been used in the past for positioning vertical items such as the columns mentioned above. For example, during the construction of a cast in place pile a shaft lining tube, usually either of steel or reinforced concrete, is installed. The bore is then partly filled with concrete. Subsequently when concrete has set a man is lowered down the hole to clean the concrete surface and to fix a base plate or similar device to the head of the concrete. The column is then lowered into position and fixed at the lower level to the base plate using surveying techniques to adjust the column as close as possible to a truly vertical position. The upper section of the column is positioned at or near to ground level. The empty bore is often filled with sand or gravel, although this is not always essential. Frequently the dimensions of the bore make it very difficult to work within the available confines.
- In an alternative method, the steel column is supported at or near ground level on a knife-edge arrangement, and the lower end is embedded in the concrete. Still another method is to survey the (generally temporary) casing or shaft bore and to then fix distance pieces to the column such that these distance pieces account for the inaccuracies in positioning the casing or shaft bore, and thereafter to insert the steel column.
- The above methods suffer from one or more of the following drawbacks: excessive time required to install the column; uncertainty of its initial positioning; uncertainty of maintaining the column in position while the concrete sets; the requirement generally for long casings (steel or concrete) which often are difficult or impossible to recover; and additional difficulties if the bore is flooded with water or bentonite suspension.
- In order to ameliorate the problems inherent in prior techniques, we have devised a method which enables accurate positioning of items such as columns and stanchions to be achieved. More particularly, in one aspect the present invention provides a method of locating an element in a borehole, which comprises (a) lining at least the upper part of the borehole with a shaft lining tube; (b) placing into the lined borehole a locating frame having at its lower end a pair of adjustable guide frames; (c) adjusting the position of the upper part of the locating frame to define an entry point for the element which is to be located in the borehole; (d) adjusting the pair of adjustable guide frames at the lower end of the locating frame to define a locus for receiving said element; and (e) locating said element between said entry point and said locus. In a variant (suitable for some ground conditions) the shaft lining tube is omitted.
- According to another aspect of the present invention there is provided a locating frame for use in locating an element in a borehole, which frame comprises (i) a space frame of rectangular cross-section substantially free throughout its interior (axial) space; and (ii) at one end of said space frame, a pair of adjustable guide frames spaced apart axially from one another and each comprising a movable bar parallel to one side of the space frame and in a radial plane, and drive means for moving said movable bar across the interior of the space frame, the respective movable bars of the two adjustable guide frames being oriented mutually orthogonally. Preferably the movable bar of each adjustable guide frame is part of a movable, planar rectangular unit which can be moved by the drive means from a first position adjacent to one side of the space frame to a second position adjacent the opposite side of the space frame. A modification can also be envisaged in which there is just a single guide frame unit carrying orthogonally oriented adjustment bars with their respective drive means.
- A locating frame in accordance with this invention may have a further adjustable guide frame or pair of such guide frames at the opposite end (top end) of the frame; this is not essential, however, since a separate but analogously functioning unit can be fitted over the top of the locating frame to define an entry point for the element which is to be located within the borehole.
- Conventional surveying techniques may be used to ensure alignment of the entry point and lower end locus in practising this invention.
- One preferred technique in accordance with the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- FIGURE 1 shows a vertical section through a borehole;
- FIGURES 2a-2c illustrate (not to scale) part of a temporary lining tube;

- A presently preferred embodiment of the method of this invention, as applied to the type of pile construction outlined above, will now be described with reference to the drawings.
- (1) As shown in Fig. 1, a temporary casing or
shaft lining tube 1 is installed in the normal manner in aborehole 2. As shown in Fig. 2a, thetube 1 has at its upper end a pair of radially opposed locatingshoes 4 the construction of which is as shown in Figures 2b (a sectional view along lines A-A of Fig. 2a) and 2c (a sectional view along lines B-B of Fig. 2a). Arranged orthogonally with respect to locatingshoes 4 is a pair of support shoes 5. The casing is generally of tubular steel often 3 - 7 metres long, but which may exceptionally be 20 metres or more in length. - (2) The pile is bored conventionally, either dry or under water or bentonite.
- (3) Concrete is placed either at this point in time or later, generally up to a position several metres below the top of the
temporary casing 1 but above the intended column base level. - (4) A locating device 3 (see Fig 3) is accurately placed on the top of the
casing 1. Thisdevice 3 comprises a rectangular frame containing a plurality ofparallel sight lines 30, typically spaced apart by 25mm, by means of which the orientation of locatingshoes 4 may be adjusted. - (5) A locating
frame 6 is lowered into thecasing 1 and accurately orientated by means of the device 3 (see Figs. 4 and 5). The frame has a top support unit 6a which overlaps the uppermost section oflining tube 1 as shown in Figure 5a. The method of locating the upper end offrame 6 is illustrated in Figure 5b, which is a section along the lines C-C of Fig. 5a. Locatingshoe 4 comprises a peg-like portion 40 which sits on top of thelining tube 1, and which has adowel 41 arranged to cooperate with abracket 42 through locatingslot 43.Frame 6 is generally 3 - 7 metres long, although greater lengths can be used to obtain even greater accuracies of location if desired. Theframe 6 may project above thecasing 1 into which it is lowered, but it is often substantially or completely located within the casing. Top section 6a (see Figures 4 and 5a) serves to retain theframe 6 in relation totube 1.Frame 6 is a rectangular space frame the interior space (along and about the longitudinal axis) of which is open. Within theframe 6 there are four adjustable guide frames arranged in two adjacent pairs, those close to the top offrame 6 being identified in Figure 4 as 7 and 8, while those close to the bottom of theframe 6 being identified as 9 and 10. - (6) The
frame 6 is then firmly located in position by means of expandingshoes 11 which thrust on to thecasing wall 1 or the unlined bore 2 (Fig. 5c). These shoes are located at two or more levels, and may be actuated mechanically, electrically, pneumatically, hydraulically, or by a combination of one or more of these methods. - (7) The
frame 6 contains two or more pairs of adjustable guide frames (see Figs. 4 and 7). Onepair frame 6, and anotherpair frame 6. For each pair of guides, one is located slightly above the other (Figs. 4 and 7); again, for each pair, one includes amovable bar 15 which can be moved in a predetermined direction, say a north-south direction, whereas the other includes a movable bar which can moved in a direction orthogonal to that of the first bar, e.g. in an east-west direction (see Fig. 6). Each individual guide frame can be remotely operated, either mechanically, electrically, pneumatically or hydraulically, or by a combination of one or more of these methods. Once thebars 15 of the adjustable guide frames have been adjusted they cannot be displaced by means of an external force. As illustrated in Fig. 7, each of the adjustable guide frames includes aworm drive 12 driven by a hydraulic motor 13 through adrive gear 14. Themovable bar 15 is, in this embodiment, in the form of arectangular unit 20 carried along the worm drive (12) byshoes 16. Thatside 22 ofunit 20opposite bar 15 is free to slide along abar 17 by means ofshoes 18. The overall permissible movement ofrectangular unit 20 is between the limits set byopposite sides - (8) After the
frame 6 has been positioned as described above, thesteel column 19 is lowered through the guides 7-10 at the top and bottom of the frame. The position of the steel column at or slightly above the top of the frame is then adjusted by means of the upper guide frames 7 and 8, until the column is in the desired position, this being confirmed for example by means of surveying equipment. The lower guide frames 9 and 10 are then adjusted until the column is at the correct inclination (generally vertical). Confirmation of the inclination may be by means of either surveying techniques or by means of spirit levels. - (9) The
steel column 19 is then lowered further into its final position and kept at this level by means of, for example, a crane or a separate clamping arrangement. Concrete may have already been placed (see (3) above) or may be placed after the installation of theframe 6, or even after the final positioning of thesteel column 19. The concrete may be placed by means of a chute, a tremmie pipe or it may be pumped down the pile. Generally the concrete level will be below the lower limits offrame 6. - (10) Once the concrete has set the
frame 6 is removed. The empty bore nay be filled with a suitable backfill material and thecasing 1 withdrawn. - (11) Instead of there being two pairs of adjustable guide frames (i.e. the
upper pair lower pair 9 and 10), the system described above may be modified so that there is only one adjustable guide frame at each end of theframe 6. With this modification, each of th'a adjustable guide frames is provided with two bars such as thebar 15 of Fig. 7, the two bars being movable in mutually orthogonal directions to provide the necessary clamping/support action to hold thesteel column 19 in place. It will also be appreciated that the upper adjustable guide frame or frames may be dispensed with, especially where the depth of theborehole 2 is not very great or where the accuracy of location required can be achieved with conventional support means for the upper end of thesteel column 19. - The above is an example of the use of this type of frame in a shaft or bore, in which case it would be usual for the frame to be inserted a substantial depth into the shaft/bore. However it is not essential for the frame to be inserted into the shaft/bore. Similarly, whereas it is usual for the steel column to be placed vertically, this system can be used to place the column at any desired inclination. As already mentioned the system can be used to place items such as steel columns and also other items, possibly of different steel sections, but also of concrete (either reinforced or not) or of plastic, or a combination of one or more of these.
- This type of frame can also be used to place similar items into other types of pile, for example into piles of the continuous flight auger type. With this technique the frame is generally used above ground, and is accurately located in plan by the use of a heavy base (either of steel or concrete, or a combination) or by means of separate piles (which may be works piles or supernumary piles). The means of obtaining correct orientation is similar to that already described, as is the means of adjusting the frame to obtain the correct plan position and inclination of the steel column or similar.
- Preferred embodiments of the present invention may offer one or more of the following advantages:
- 1. Precise control of the insertion and positioning of a column (or similar) which is to be partly embedded into a cast in place bored pile.
- 2. The adjustable guide(s) can have controlled clearances within each guide such as to give a predetermined precision of location within a borehole.
- 3. Robust construction of the device is feasible; this allows insertion of a column without deformation to the device.
- 4. Precise orientation of the reference frame, and maintenance of the orientation during use, are possible.
- 5. Accurate positioning both in plan, orientation and indication from ground level or above.
- 6. Suitability for use in constructing cast in place piles where the bore is flooded (either partially or wholly) with water or bentonite suspension.
- 7. Suitability for use where a column or the like is to be embedded partly or wholly into a continuous flight auger pile, and sufficient robustness for the location step to to take place above ground.
