The settlement observation point is an observation point set up to monitor the settlement of the building during the construction of the building, and the settlement observation point protection box is a device used to protect these observation points. In order to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the observation points, the settlement observation points must be properly protected when observing the settlement of buildings. This article will focus on the common shapes of the protective boxes for settlement observation points.
First of all, we need to understand the basic requirements for the settlement observation point protection box. The function of the protective box is to protect the settlement observation point from damage, prevent contamination and ensure the accuracy of the observation data. Therefore, the protective box must have a certain compressive strength and dustproof performance, and at the same time be easy to install and disassemble.
At present, the commonly used subsidence observation point protection box has several shapes, such as cylindrical, rectangular and conical. The choice of these shapes mainly depends on the way the settlement observation points are set up and the observation requirements.
1.Cylindrical protective box.
The cylindrical protective box is a common type of protective box for settlement observation points, which is shaped like a cylinder. This protective box is characterized by high compressive strength, which can effectively resist external pressure, and the cylindrical structure can be easily placed on the observation point and is not easy to fall off. In addition, the processing and production of cylindrical protective boxes is also relatively simple and the cost is low.
2.Box-shaped protective case.
A box-shaped protective box is a protective box that is easy to stack and transport, and its shape resembles a cuboid. The advantage of this protective box is that it is stable and not easy to tip, and at the same time, the structure of the cuboid can accommodate more cushioning material to better protect the observation point. In addition, the appearance of the box-shaped protective box is also relatively aesthetically pleasing, which can better blend in with the building.
3.Conical protective case.
The conical protective box is a special kind of settlement observation point protection box, which is similar in shape to a cone. The characteristics of this protective box are that it can better adapt to the changes of the settlement observation point, and the conical structure can effectively reduce the influence of external pressure on the observation point. In addition, the processing and production of the conical protective box is relatively simple and the cost is low.
In practical application, the appropriate shape of the settlement observation point protection box should be selected according to the specific situation. For example, for observation points that need to be subjected to high pressure, you can choose a cylindrical or cuboidal protective box;For occasions that need to better adapt to changes in settlement observation points, a conical protective box can be selected. In addition, it is also necessary to consider the material, size, color and other aspects of the protective box to ensure that its performance and appearance can meet the actual needs.
In short, the settlement observation point protection box is an indispensable device in the observation of building settlement, and the choice of its shape directly affects the accuracy and reliability of the observation data. In practical application, the appropriate shape of the protective box should be selected according to the specific situation to ensure the smooth progress of the observation of building settlement. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the material, size, color and other aspects of the protective box to meet the actual needs and improve the observation efficiency.
