Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for slip forming of upright concrete walls, the concrete wall comprising at least one metal membrane, e.g. a metal membrane made of steel.
  • the concrete wall may be a part of a ring- shaped wall, a cylindrical tank wall, or a concrete construction of other shape.
  • the purpose of the metal membrane may be to making the concrete construction fluid-tight in order to prevent leakage of fluids, e.g. liquid gases or fluids in
  • the purpose of the metal membrane may be to making the concrete construction fluid-tight in order to prevent leakage of fluids, e.g. liquid gases or fluids in gaseous state.
  • PCT-patent application PCT/NO 2001/00372 relates to a panelled ceiling slip form being fed with plastic film on the surface, the plastic film is arranged to run in between the concrete wall and the panelled ceiling slip form device in a raw tunnel in order to ease the progress of slip forming.
  • the plastic film is set in with grease to ease the progress of slip forming.
  • Such a panelled ceiling slip form of plastic will end up on the underside of the moulded concrete panelled-ceiling and allowed to fall back down at the rear of the tunnel panelled ceiling slip form as it progresses, and thus it functions not as a barrier.
  • US patent 3245648 granted in 1963 describes a process of the slip forming where a rubber layer, plastic film, or a sheet of paper is fed in preferably from a roll arranged under deck of a slide form yoke.
  • the layer which is fed down is allowed to run tightly along the surface between the fresh concrete which is being filled up in slip form and the slide form surface, preferably on both sides of the wall which is being formed, in such way that it creates a surface on the finished moulded wall .
  • An advantage by arranging such a rubber layer or a plastic film on the wall is that one may keep the humidity in the moulded wall for a longer time during the hardening process, and that the discontinuities otherwise arising upon interruptions in the pouring in of concrete mass will not appear as significant.
  • An essential feature of the rather thick rubber layer which is being fed down is that when after a moulding step, by resumption of the jacking process, the rubber will be extended in the vertical direction after having attached to the concrete wall, the rubber layer will be subject to Poissonian dimensional reduction across the rubber layer when being extended vertically, so as for releasing from the concrete wall successively from the top when the jacking is of the slide form is resumed.
  • interruptions and resumptions fo the slide forming process are allowed.
  • Even a fixedly mounted rubber mat draped about the upper and lower edge of the slide form may achieve such a function, as shown in the simplest embodiment of the invention according to US324568 in its Fig. 1.
  • One purpose of the present invention is to provide a fluid- proof metal membrane in or on the concrete wall and in which the metal membrane remains a part of the concrete wall while it is being slide formed.
  • a second purpose of the present invention is to provide a fluid-proof metal membrane in a slip formed wall in which the metal membrane is to prevent leakage of fluids through the wall, the fluids being e.g. liquid, gas or fluids in gaseous state.
  • a third purpose of the present invention is to provide one or more methods in order for integrating one or more fluid-proof metal membranes in a slip formed cryogenic concrete tank, in which the metal membranes separately prevent leakage of the cryogenic fluids.
  • a fourth purpose of the present invention is to devise a simple, efficient and feasible method to form a slip formed concrete wall with a fluid-tight metal membrane.
  • a substantial purpose of slip forming of tanks of concrete is to obtain a fluid-tight tank.
  • This problem is solved in the background art by arranging vertical rails along the inner slip form in such way that the vertical metal rails are arranged along the inner surface of the tank surface formed.
  • Such vertical rails may then be used as support for welding of the metal liner sheets to the inner wall surface of the tank.
  • this may be insufficient because the internal lining will shrink and bulge inwards, and one risks delamination between the metal membrane and the enclosing concrete wall's inner face, together with fatigue fracture in the metal membrane or its fastening points to the rails .
  • the prior art method requires two subsequent slip forming processes, which involves two working processes instead of one working process as in the present invention.
  • the prior art method requires, that before starting the second slip forming process, a metal membrane is held on the first slip formed tank wall and then a new single-sided slip form panel is arranged for slip forming of the second, opposite concrete layer of the tank wall in order to enclose the metal membrane between the two concrete layers .
  • the actual assembly work for arranging the metal membrane according to the prior art method is time-consuming and it is well-known that it may be difficult both to arrange and keep such extended, vertical and unfastened metal sheets to stand stable before welding them to the vertical rails.
  • US patent 3245648 may in that respect solve problems related to resumption of the slip forming process after interruptions, by means of a continuous down-feeding of a sheet of rubber material, plastic film or paper between the concrete and the slip form, so as for the slip form to avoid being stuck to the concrete but rather to bear against the film layer on the concrete.
  • this is not a substantial problem when using an ordinary steel plate lined slip form such as in ordinary slip forming.
  • US patent 3245648 to some extent solves problems related to drying-out of the surface of the concrete during the hardening process in that the rubber material or plastic film being sufficiently fluid tight to retain water, by down feeding of a coating sheet over the entire height of the slip formed wall. But a rubber sheet or plastic film according to US 3245648 will not prevent methane or the most other cryogenic liquids or fluids in gaseous state from escaping from a cryogenic tank because of the mechanical characteristic of the rubber material and its sealing properties at cryogenic temperatures.
  • GB344628 granted in 1931 describes a stepwise moved single- sided slip form for stepwise layer slip forming of a concrete layer on an existing wall, in which a fabric material of paper, canvas or linoleum is fed down between the slip form and the concrete layer being slip formed.
  • the single- sided slip form runs vertically on a vertical supporting rail with a sheave on the top.
  • the patent GB344628 is thus not a continuous and self-supported slip form method but is limited by the height of the vertical supporting rail.
  • the GB-patented device lacks reinforcement, jacks and climbing rods.
  • a fabric material as suggested in the GB- patent may not withstand the shear stress normally arising between the concrete and the slip form by the current slip form methods .
  • a slip formed concrete tank obtains an internal metal membrane .
  • a such metal membrane tank may be applied as internal tank for storage of cryogenic fluids.
  • an external tank may be additionally required.
  • the external tank serves several purposes: It should retain the gas which boils off from the cryogenic liquid. It should also retain possible fluid leakages from the internal tank. Additionally it shall hold an insulation layer and support an external roof. It shall constitute a mechanical protection for the internal tank, and it shall prevent humidity from diffusing to the inner tank.
  • full containment tank the external tank is formed in concrete with a metal lining on the inwards facing surface.
  • a complete LNG-tank in the classification "Full containment" based on the background art method may be built up in the following manner:
  • An inner liquid-tight container is enveloped by an external gas-tight container.
  • the space formed between the outer and inner wall is filled with an insulating material : a supporting insulation layer below the bottom of the inner tank, a powder formed insulation layer arranged between the tank walls, and a light layer with mineral wool as a suspended ceiling above the inner tank, hanging from the ceiling of the external tank.
  • the method based on the background art to build such a tank may be as follows: a) The external tank wall and the inner layer of the internal tank wall are slip formed at the same time.
  • a first metal membrane is arranged, covering the inner surface of the external tank wall, and a second metal membrane is arranged on the external surface of the inner concrete layer of the inner tank.
  • an outer concrete layer (with tensile reinforcement) is slip formed against the second metal membrane which is installed on the external surface of the inner concrete layer of the internal concrete tank being formed.
  • the first metal membrane which is arranged on the inner surface of the external concrete wall usually does not need any concrete overcoverage . In this manner, an internal tank with the second metal membrane integrated within the tank wall of concrete is formed, and an external tank of concrete is lined on the inner face with the first metal membrane.
  • a solution to problems which may arise by using the method of the background art is a method of slip forming of a concrete wall by means of at least one slip form and a jack for displacing the slip form, wherein the new and inventive step is a metal membrane arranged to run down within the slip form within or along a surface of the concrete wall being formed.
  • first advantage of the method according to the invention is that the metal membrane is arranged in the same operation as the slip forming process. Thus the time for conducting the slip forming process is substantially shortened.
  • -A second advantage of the method according to the invention is that one may achieve integration of a relatively thin, fluid-tight metal membrane with a relative thick, structurally bearing concrete wall in one and the same operation, and thus combining the properties of the metal membrane being fluid- tight, but with relatively difficultly workable structure on the construction site, with an easy workable and strong, structurally supporting concrete structure which is otherwise insufficient with regard to fluid-tightness.
  • -A fourth advantage according to an embodiment of the invention is, that by slip forming of so called “full containment" tanks, no temporary gates in the tank are required in order to transport in materials for scaffold engineering and lining with metal sheets after a first slip forming operation, nor are any gates required for transporting equipment out from the tank after the slip forming operation.
  • the slip form may be disassembled and removed over the top of the cylindrical tank wall when the slip forming process is completed.
  • -A sixth advantage of the invention if one slip- forms in a metal membrane between the inner and outer concrete masses, is that one may obtain an adhesive fixation between the surface of the entire metal membrane and the adjacent concrete masses because the surface of metal membrane is submerged in the wet poured concrete mass, i.e. the concrete mass rises up and covers over the static metal surface.
  • -A seventh advantage of invention if a surface membrane of metal is led into the slip form, is that the humidity in the fresh concrete may be kept considerably longer than otherwise ordinarily non-covered concrete surface walls, thus one may achieve a better hardening of the concrete, and one may avoid possible alternative actions in order to achieve good hardening .

  • the metal membrane in a tank according to the invention is essentially fluid-tight, for use of the concrete wall to a storage tank for fluids, e.g. methane in liquid or gaseous state. This is essential for keeping the gas in the cryogenic tank.
  • a curved slip form which produces a corresponding curved wall, such as in a cylindrical tank. This is illustrated in Figs. 7a, 7b, and 7c.
  • Other shapes may be elliptical and may even include parabolic wall, and double curved wall-tanks with varying diameter or inclination of the wall, spherical tanks or other volume shapes with technically or architecturally determined form.
  • a cryogenic tank of a "Full containment" classification with an reinforced inner tank with metal membrane within the concrete wall, and with a reinforced outer tank with metal membrane on the inner surface, may be formed as follows according to an embodiment to the method of the invention, please see Fig. 10a:
  • a mutually facing set of slip form panels for e.g. a cylindrical outer tank and mutually facing slip form panels for a corresponding cylindrical, concentric inner concrete wall of an inner tank is arranged, both according to the invention being arranged to let each of its metal membrane to be fed in and run down along a surface of the so slip formed concrete wall.
  • the outer tank should be reinforced.
  • a such first metal membrane (30) is arranged along inner surface of the exterior tank and a second such metal membrane (30) is for being added on the inner concrete portion of the inner tank being arranged on the outer plane of the inner concrete wall under formation by a slip form process according to invention, (alternatively, it may be arranged on the inner surface of a first, outer concrete portion of the inner tank) .
  • the exterior concrete layer of the inner tank is not formed.
  • the exterior concrete layer of the inner tank may be slip formed on the outer face of the second metal membrane (30) which now constitutes a permanent membrane of the inner tank. This is illustrated by the dashed lines showing a subsequent single-sided slip forming of an outermost concrete layer of the inner tank, with the metal membrane constituting the inner (static) form. If one has a cover plate (80) over the metal membrane rolls as being shown in Fig 10a, it may be possible to undertake an integrated slip forming of the exterior concrete layer in the reinforced state on the inner portion of the exterior wall of the tank by coupling one last slip form to the rest of the slip form panels, but this will be difficult because the vertical reinforcement line (see the vertical broken line Ri in Fig.
  • Such an outer concrete layer of the inner tank may in a preferred embodiment be slip formed with tensile (horizontal) reinforcement and non-tensile (standing) reinforcement.
  • an inner trailing slip form panel (120') may be used to form a concrete layer on an inward facing metal membrane arranged on the inner face of an outer concrete layer of an inner tank.
  • the outer concrete layer may be reinforced.
  • the above mentioned process must apparently be carried out in to two processes, where the outer concrete layer of the inner tank must be slip formed sequentially last, but the slip form processes may be carried out generally at the same time to one partially spatial and with some staggered time rate process in the following way, so as for the subsequent slip forming by means of the single sided slip form of the reinforced concrete layer on the outside of the second metal membrane (30) on the outer surface of the inner tank occurs in that the single sided slip form panel is coupled to the sets of the slip form when the slip form device is elevated to a desired height after starting of its slip forming, and is raised parallel with this, and in this way slip forms successively the outer concrete layer of the inner tank a desired distance behind the inner concrete layer which is being slip formed.
  • the outer concrete layer of the inner tank may be slip formed to the top after the inner concrete layer and the outer wall have completed being filled by concrete when their desired heights are achieved.
  • the insulation material is applied between the finished slip formed inner concrete tank and the outer concrete tank.
  • the insulation is also applied within the ceiling of the tanks under formation.
  • the outer slip form according to the invention is arranged to let a metal membrane (30) run down along the inward face of the so formed concrete wall which becomes the outer tank.
  • the outer tank must be reinforced.
  • a metal membrane (30) is led down between the slide form for the inner tanks wall so that it gets distances from both its inside and outside slip form panels (120) , and thus becomes a permanent internal metal membrane in the inner tank wall (0) .
  • the metal membrane (30) should be fed down radially inside relative to the tensile reinforcement of the inner tank.
  • the shown embodiment of membrane rolls arranged on the relatively inner vertical standing part of the yoke relative to each slide formed concrete wall will avoid conflict between the vertical reinforcement lines (Ro, Ri) , whether in the inner wall's outer concrete layer, nor in the outer wall as a whole.
  • a result of the process is that the outer concrete layer of the inner tank becomes slip formed on the outside of metal membrane (30) which now constitutes an internal part of the inner tank.
  • the double concrete tank for cryogenic fluid is slip formed in one single operation, with metal membranes arranged in their intended positions in the same operation.
  • the slip form device may be dismantled and removes above the top of the cylindrical tank walls when the slip forming process is completed.
  • Reinforcement may preferably be arranged so as for ending up in the concrete wall part being radially outside the metal membrane (30) , and will work as tensile reinforcement.
  • a subsequent slip forming is conducted using a single-sided slip form (12 ' ) forming a concrete layer on the second metal membrane (30) on the temporary inner surface of the inner tank. This layer needs not be fully reinforced with tensile reinforcement (horizontally) because it will be set under compression by the surrounding shrinking layers during the cooling to cryogenic conditions.
  • This subsequent slip forming by means of the single sided slip form of a reinforced layer on the inward facing surface of the second metal membrane (30) on the temporary inner surface of the inner tank may be conducted in that the slip form is connected to the inner slip form when this has been elevated to a desired elevation after the start of the slip form process, and be elevated in parallel with this, or run in a separate slip form operation.
