Description
Description
CONSTRUCTION METHOD OF EMBANKMENT
Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to a method of constructing an embankment; and more particularly, to a method of building an embankment to stabilize an inclined plane of river's edge by preventing the embankment at a river's edge from being eroded. Background Art
[2] Embankment was generally built on river's edge using concrete blocks on a purpose of disaster prevention. Such a concrete block-based embankment destroys natural scenery and ecosystem of river. In order to overcome such a drawback, natural materials such as stone with a net bag were widely used for building the embankments. However, the stone net bag has several disadvantages. If a net bag is made of steel, the stone net bag is easily rusted and the flexibility thereof is degraded. That is, the stone net bag is not adaptable to a landform varied according to erosion. Also, the embankment built using the stone net bags may be easily washed out by a high water pressure and a buoyant force made by the high speed of running water due to a flood. Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem
[3] It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a method of building an embankment to stabilize an inclined plane of river' edge and to prevent embankment units from being washed out by connecting the embankment units using a coupling member. Technical Solution
[4] In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of building an embankment including: smoothening and hardening earth and sand; forming an horizontal embankment layer on the hardened earth and sand by arranging embankment units in parallel where each embankment unit is surrounded by a plurality of first wires; connecting the first wires of adjacent embankment units using a coupling member; stacking a plurality of horizontal embankment layers; tying the stacked horizontal embankment layers using a second wire; and connecting the first wire and the second wire using the coupling member.
[5] The method may further include tying an upper horizontal embankment layer and a lower horizontal embankment layer, which are adjacent to the stacked horizontal embankment layers, together using a coupling member.
[6] The coupling member may have a form of belt having a female screw and a male screw formed at both end thereof to be coupled one another so as to tie wires of
different embankment units.
[7] The embankment unit may be one selected from the group consisting of a soil sack, a sand sack and a gravel sack. Advantageous Effects
[8] A method of building an embankment according to the present invention stabilizes an inclined plane of river' edge and improves a supporting force of embankment by firmly connecting adjacent embankment units using a coupling member. Therefore, the method of building an embankment according to the present invention prevents the embankment from being washed out. Also, the method of building an embankment according to the present invention protects ecosystem of river because a soil sack, a sand sack or a gravel sack is used as the embankment unit instead of using a contrite block and a stone net bag.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention [16] Other objects and aspects of the invention will become apparent from the following description of the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, which is set forth hereinafter. [17] FIGS.1 and 2 show schematic views illustrating an embankment and a breakwater built according to an embodiment of the present invention. [18] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the embankment or the breakwater is built by connecting a first wire 111 and a second wire 600 of embankment units through a coupling member 700. The coupling member 700 reinforces the coupling force of the
embankment units through coupling the first wire 111 and the second wire 600 of embankment units. Therefore, the inclined plane of embankment or breakwater is stabilized and it prevents the embankment units from being washed out by a high water pressure and a buoyant force due to the high speed of running water caused by a flood.
[19] Hereinafter, a method of building an embankment according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 through 8.
[20] At first, earth and sand on an inclined plane of river s edge is hardened and smoothened.
[21] Then, a horizontal embankment layer 100 is formed by arranging a plurality of embankment units 110 in parallel where each embankment unit is tied by a plurality of first wires 111. Herein, the embankment unit 110 may be a sack of soil, a sack of sand or a sack of gravel. Also, the embankment unit 110 may be a sack of composition thereof.
[22] The embankment unit 110 is tied by the first wire 111 as shown in FIG. 3. Herein, the first wire 111 is putted through a pulling -up ring 113 so that a crane (not shown) may lift the embankment unit 110 up and moves the embankment unit 110 using the pulling-up ring 113. In the present embodiment, the pulling -up ring 113 is formed in a shape of a circular ring. However, the pulling-up ring 113 is not limited by the shape thereof.
[23] Then, the first wires 111 and 121 of two adjacent embankment units 110 and 120 are coupled using the coupling member 700. As shown in FIG. 4, the coupling member 700 includes a belt 730, a male screw 710 formed on one end of belt 730 and a female screw 720 formed on other end of belt 730. The coupling member 700 ties up the first wires 111 and 121 of different embankment units by connecting the male screw 710 and the female screw 720 together. The coupling member may form a shape of ring when the male screw 710 having a thread formed on an outer surface thereof is connected to the female screw 720 having a thread formed on an inner surface thereof as shown in FIG. 5. That is, the belt 730 of coupling member 700 is passed through under the adjacent first wires 111 and 121 of the embankment units, and then the female screw 720 and the male screw 710 are connected one another to tie the embankment units together.
[24] Then, horizontal embankment layers 100 and 200 are stacked as a multi-layer stacking structure. Herein, the horizontal embankment layer 100 is formed through coupling embankment units 110 and 120, and another horizontal embankment layer 200 is formed through coupling embankment units 210 and 220.
[25] It is preferable that an upper horizontal embankment layer and a lower horizontal embankment layer adjacent to the stacked horizontal embankment layers 100 and 200 may be coupled to the stacked horizontal embankment layers 100 and 200 using the
coupling member 700.
[26] Then, the plurality of horizontal embankment layers 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 are tied together through a second wire 600. Finally, the first wires 111, 121, 211, 221, 311, 321, 411, 421, 511 and 521 are coupled with the second wire 600 which are crossed one another using the coupling member 700. Herein, if the top and the bottom sides and the left and right sides of the horizontal embankment layers 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 are tied together, it is preferable to tie a top and a bottom side together and a front and a rear side together using the second wire which are a vertical direction from the tying direction.
[27] After then, the horizontal embankment layers may be covered with gravel or sand to fill a gap formed between adjacent embankments to further stabilize the embankment.
