Optimization of Anti-Leakage Structure and Construction Efficiency for Prefabricated Manholes ——Rapid Construction Technology Based on GB/T 23483 Standard

1. Research Background


Manholes are critical nodes in municipal pipe networks, responsible for pipe maintenance, water level monitoring, and stormwater collection. Traditional cast-in-place concrete manholes face three major challenges (Figure 1):


  • Long construction 周期: 7-10 days per manhole, accounting for 35% of pipeline project time
  • High leakage rate: 42% of pipeline defects from joint leakage (2024 MOHURD data)
  • Poor durability: 65% crack incidence after 5 years

2. Core Issue: Failure Mechanism of Traditional Manholes

2.1 Failure Mode Analysis


Failure Type Cause Typical Scenario
Joint Leakage Shrinkage cracks + seal failure Stormwater-sewage intersections
Settlement Uneven foundation + low stiffness Soft soil or heavy traffic areas
Material Corrosion Chemical erosion by sewage/groundwater Industrial parks, coastal areas

2.2 Key Influencing Parameters


Parameter GB Requirement Traditional Process Deviation
Wall thickness (mm) ≥200 180-190
Joint seal compression (%) 15-25 8-12
Foundation bearing capacity (kPa) ≥100 60-80

3. Prefabrication Technology Optimization

3.1 Structural Design Innovation


Adopted "modular + tongue-and-groove" prefabrication (Figure 2), offering advantages over cast-in-place:


  • Modular production: Precision ±2mm for 井筒,base, and 支管 joints
  • Tongue-and-groove connection: Shear strength increased by 40%
  • Variable stiffness design: 250mm upper wall (load zone), 200mm lower wall

3.2 Material Performance Comparison


Material Type Compressive Strength (MPa) Waterproof Grade Unit Weight (t) Curing Time (d)
Cast-in-place C30 30 P6 8.5 28
Prefabricated steel-fiber concrete 45 P8 6.2 7
Plastic manhole 15 P4 1.2 1

4. Engineering Solutions

4.1 Rapid Construction Standard


Developed "Three Speeds One Strictness" process (referencing CJJ/T 33-2016):


Process Traditional Prefabricated Efficiency Improvement
Foundation excavation 2 days 1 day -50%
Manhole installation 4 days 6 hours -83%
Joint sealing 2 days 4 hours -80%
Backfilling 2 days 1 day -50%

4.2 Anti-Leakage System Design


"Three-Layer Defense" sealing system (Figure 3):


  1. Structural layer: Double rubber seals (20% compression)
  2. Additional layer: 2mm polyurea coating (tensile strength ≥15MPa)
  3. Testing layer: Water pressure 0.15MPa, leakage ≤0.05L/(m·min)

5. Field Test Case: Sponge City Project


Index Cast-in-Place Prefabricated Standard Requirement
Construction 周期 (days) 9 2.5 -
5-year leakage rate (%) 18 2 ≤5
Settlement (mm) 35 8 ≤15
Comprehensive cost (¥10,000/unit) 18 12 -
