Definitions

• the invention relates to a method for undertaking buildings according to claim 1 and further to a method for forming reinforced concrete support elements according to the preamble of claim 17.
• At least one elongated support element is arranged substantially parallel to the foundation below the structure to be underpinned.
• Another major advantage is that the risk of accidents for the people working there can be significantly reduced, since they are not located directly below the wall to be underpinned, but laterally spaced from the building.
• Another advantage of this method is that common means can be used for this in building technology and sewer construction.
• the technology required for implementation is therefore available and relatively inexpensive.
• REPLACEMENT BLA ⁇ (RULE 26) Further advantages result if a plurality of elongate support elements are arranged below the foundation and are at least partially coupled to one another. This gradually underpins the foundation and can thus increasingly stabilize itself. When producing a single support element, its dimensions are chosen so that the base beneath the foundation is only slightly affected. In the interaction of several support elements, the foundation is then increasingly supported and ultimately lies securely. In this way, a kind of surface foundation is created, which acts like a "raft" on the foundation and carries it on the unstable subsurface.
• support elements are arranged in the form of a grid or grid, an effective undertaking of the entire structure can be achieved in particular in larger buildings, such as churches and the like.
• Such structures are usually constructed so that the load of the structure is supported on a grid of supporting columns.
• These pillars are partly in the side walls and partly inside the building.
• the grid-like arrangement of the support elements enables targeted support of the respective load-bearing element. A gentle undertaking of the entire static support points of the building is therefore possible.
• a system of supporting elements coupled to one another is formed under the structure to be underpinned.
• support elements designed as tension and pressure elements can be specifically arranged and coupled to one another in such a way that they establish a connection to a solid base and absorb the load of the structure.
• the individual support elements By producing the individual support elements in that a hole is made below the foundation and a hollow or closed rod with a circular cross section is produced in this hole, which can have tensile and pressure strands, a stable configuration of the elongate support element can be achieved become.
• the support element is thus able to absorb tensile and compressive forces. Particularly in the case of a changing floor structure under the building, it is necessary to intercept various load cases, which can also change over time.
• This provides a resilient support element, the load capacity of which can be increased in cooperation with other support elements and thus enables the required load to be absorbed.
• the ring shape of the support element also enables reinforcement elements and concrete to be introduced in the free core area, as a result of which the arrangement is further stabilized. In addition, it is possible, for example at intersections under load-bearing elements, to open concrete in the concrete ring at high pressure.
• REPLACEMENT BLA ⁇ (RULE 26) press and thus connect the individual support elements and thereby fill the space under the supporting element with concrete, the loose subsurface being displaced.
• the hole is made using an anchor drill or an earth rocket, it has the advantage that e.g. Devices known from sewer construction can be used.
• these devices which produce a stable borehole in the subsurface, which is also pressed outwards, particularly in the case of the earth rocket, the desired bore can be produced in a simple manner.
• the support elements are formed by drilling a hole below the foundation, pressing pipes into them and filling them with steel mesh and pressed concrete, then a stable hole can be created, especially on loose ground, such as gravel or sand.
• the bore produced would collapse again very quickly under certain circumstances even before stabilization could be achieved by a concrete ring or reinforced concrete. This reduces the risk of further destabilization of the subsurface in this case.
• Such a bore with pressed-in pipes is advantageously created by means of pipe pressing or shield driving.
• common methods from sewer construction can be used.
• the upright bores are filled with concrete and preferably steel-reinforced concrete, which is made in particular by high-pressure injection. This results in a certain displacement of the unstable subsurface under the foundation and the space is filled with concrete. If the subsurface cannot be displaced, it is compacted to such an extent that it is now stable.

A stable undertaking of the supporting element can also be achieved in this way.

• a shaft can be created between two points, which consists of outer walls made of individual support elements. The soil inside the shaft can then be removed. The basement of existing buildings is also conceivable in this way.
• a method is shown with which voids in the floor can be stabilized.
• a major advantage here is that this stabilization can be achieved directly in connection with the production of the cavity.
• a device for injecting the binder can be arranged directly after the drilling device. The effect is used here that the ground is generally compacted immediately behind the rocket end and thus at least briefly maintains its shape. The subsequent introduction of a binder reliably stabilizes the cavity.
• Single- or multi-component agents can be used as binders. Examples of this are concrete. Resins, silicates or other suitable mineral substances or plastics.
• the outlay for forming stable bores can thus be significantly reduced, in particular in the present invention.
• REPLACEMENT BLA ⁇ (RULE 26) According to a further aspect of the invention, a method for forming reinforced concrete support elements is shown.
• reinforced concrete support elements is conventionally carried out in such a way that so-called reinforcement baskets are bent out of structural steel elements and with further reinforcement elements. such as structural steel bars and the like, are connected by wires.
• the reinforcement designed in this way is then introduced into a formwork or an area to be concreted and embedded in concrete.
• elongated support elements are arranged essentially parallel to a foundation.
• a hole is formed below the area to be underpinned, into which a reinforcement is inserted.
• the hole is then poured with concrete.
• reinforced concrete support elements can be considerably simplified by individually inserting steel strands into the bore after the production process of the bore and connecting it to further reinforcement elements during the introduction to form a reinforcement.
• the individual reinforcement elements can be brought separately to the bore opening, which means that the flexibility of the individual elements can be used. This greatly facilitates working in the work space in the shaft, which is usually limited.
• the elements of the reinforcement are connected to the steel strands to form a reinforcement cage which is essentially inherently stable in shape just before insertion into the bore. The insertion of such a reinforcement is therefore considerably simplified compared to a conventional prefabricated reinforcement.
• the production of reinforced concrete support elements can be considerably simplified in this way, particularly in the case of unfavorable local conditions.
• REPLACEMENT BLA ⁇ (RULE 26) It is a further advantage if a pulling element, in particular a steel cable, is pulled through the hole when the drilling device or the drive of the drilling device is pulled back into the starting area after completion of the hole, by means of which the reinforcement preferably arranged in the starting area subsequently is passed through the bore. As a result, the removal movement of the drilling device or the drive for the drilling device, which is necessary anyway, is connected to the introduction of a tension element, as a result of which the reinforcement can subsequently be introduced into the bore.

• the reinforcement is connected to the tension element and drawn into the hole by this.
• An essential advantage here is that the reinforcement is guided into the hole. and further that insertion by means of tensile forces is much easier to manage than insertion by means of pressure forces. The risk of the reinforcement snagging with the bore wall and thus a blockage is significantly lower.
• the reinforcement at the end connected to the tension element is not yet fully developed and e.g. forms a cone shape that slides relatively easily through the bore.
• the steel cable with the reinforcement attached to it is pulled through the bore by means of a cable winch arranged in the target area, the forces necessary for introducing the reinforcement can be reliably applied. Furthermore, the progress of the introduction can be controlled continuously, whereby a jerky slip or the like, as e.g. can occur when pulling in by hand due to the reinforcement getting caught in the bore wall.
• the reinforcement it is also possible for the reinforcement to be drawn into the bore in the starting area during the pulling back of the drilling device or the drive to the drilling device. This means that there is no need to insert a tension element, since the retraction movement of the drilling device is used as a drive for inserting the reinforcement. This further simplifies the arrangement of the reinforcement in the hole.
• the reinforcement cage can be designed in its desired shape.
• the reinforcement itself remains dimensionally stable and is available at the desired points. This makes it possible to form easily predeterminable reinforced concrete support elements, the static properties of which can also be easily predicted.
