01 Application background 

On October 25, 2021, the Ministry of Transport issued《Digital traffic“Fourteen five”Development planning》（Delivered to the planning department〔2021〕Number 102）Notice of。“Development planning”The Communist Party of China mentioned it thirteen times.“Digitize”、Fourteen times“Intelligent”。And point out in particular，Guided by Xi Jinping's Socialist Thought with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era，Thoroughly implement the Nineteenth National Congress of the CPC and the Second Session of the Nineteenth Central Committee、No.3 middle school、No.4 Middle School、The spirit of the Fifth Plenary Session，Based on the new development stage，Implement the new development concept，Construct a new development pattern，Integrating development and security，To digitize、Networking、Intelligence is the main line，Take reform and innovation as the fundamental driving force。

Guangdong Province is the birthplace of the tide of national reform and opening up.，It is also a pioneer in exploration and innovation.。The reconstruction and expansion project of Maozhan Expressway is an important measure to inject strong vitality into the economic development along the line.，It is also a strategic layout to further enhance the interconnection between Western Guangdong and the Pearl River Delta and to promote the development of the Great Bay Area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao.。The First Company of the 12th Bureau of China Railway is an important builder and participant of national infrastructure.，Actively respond to the call of the state，Resolutely implement the spirit of the document，Insist on taking innovation as the guide，A vision of the world，Be brave to explore and try，Scientific use of digital technology，Take the lead in introducing the new technology in the reconstruction and expansion projects of expressway in the province.DPavement paving is Topcon 3DIntelligent paving system。By adopting 3DIntelligent Paving System Replaces Traditional 2DApplication of Paving Technology in Reconstruction and Expansion Project of Mao-Zhan Expressway。

Commonly used 2 for paving of water stable layerDSliding shoe paving process，It is usually carried out by erecting a steel wire line.。First，Due to the self-pollution of the steel wire rope、Accuracy error caused by elasticity, deflection, etc.。When the paver is working with the throttle increased during the transmission of materials，The shaking of the car body will make the skid shoe jump on the wire line.，Plus the deflection error of the wire rope's own sagging，So that the elevation is accurate only in the vicinity of the pile.，However, a large error may occur in the position between the two piles.。This will result in the transmission of data containing errors to the paver，Causing the screed to be adjusted too often，The paved road surface will be wavy to a certain extent.，It is difficult to effectively control the paving accuracy and ensure the smoothness.，Poor ride can significantly reduce the life of the road，And will cause certain material waste and so on.。And the erection of the yardstick requires professional surveyors to set out in advance.、Leveling，And auxiliary personnel are required to erect it.，It will also bring more artificial errors.。

Adopt 3DPaving technology can effectively overcome the problems of datum line drooping and so on, which are easy to occur in conventional construction of hanging steel wire.，The traditional working procedures such as measurement and lofting are saved.，And that operation efficiency is improve.，And that construction safety risk is reduce.。
