This article mainly studies the construction process and key steps of road structure layer masonry wells, in order to improve construction efficiency and quality. By analyzing the shortcomings of existing construction techniques, new construction methods and technical optimization measures have been introduced. The article first introduces the importance of masonry well construction in road structures and the shortcomings of existing research, then, elaborates in detail on key steps including pre construction preparation, wellbore masonry, structural reinforcement of the well chamber, and later inspection and maintenance. Through comparative analysis, it has been proven that the proposed construction plan and technical measures can effectively improve construction speed and structural safety. Four experiments were designed during the experimental phase to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the research method. In the comparative experiment of construction period, the construction period of modular prefabrication technology was reduced by an average of 11 days. In the quality qualification rate testing experiment, the average quality qualification rate of modular prefabrication technology was 91%. In the long-term performance evaluation experiment, the average maintenance frequency of the masonry well of modular prefabrication technology within 5 years was 1.6 times. In the cost-benefit analysis experiment of construction, modular prefabrication technology reduced the direct construction cost by about 15-20% compared to traditional methods. From the above data conclusion, it can be seen that modular prefabrication technology is significantly superior to traditional construction methods in terms of short construction period, high quality qualification rate, better long-term performance, and better cost-effectiveness.
