Abstract
Recently, in order to utilize more effectively underground space, deep excavations have been performed on building or subway construction in urban areas. In such excavations, anchors have been used to support the excavation retaining walls because the anchored excavation could provide wide working space for underground construction. The purpose of this paper is to establish empirical equations to be able to estimate the earth pressures acting on anchored excavation retention walls, based on the investigation of field measuring results, which were obtained from twenty seven building construction sites. The prestressed anchor force was measured by load cells which were attached to the anchor head, while the horizontal displacement of excavation walls were measured by inclinometers which were installed right'behind the retention walls. The lateral earth pressures acting on the anchored retention walls, which were estimated from both the measured anchor forces and the horizontal displacement of the walls, showed a trapezoidal distribution. There was some difference between the measured earth pressures acting on the anchored retention walls and the empirical earth pressures given by several empirical equations. Thus, the lateral earth pressures acting on anchored retention walls would be estimated by these empirical equations with some modifications.
최근 도심지에서 건물 및 지하철 건설시 보다 효율적인 지하공간을 활용하기 위하여 깊은 굴착이 많이 실시되고 있다. 이와 같은 지하굴착공사에 있어서 앵커지지 굴착공법은 넘은 작업공간을 확보할 수 있는 이점이 있으므로 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 27개 사례현장으로부터 얻은 현장계측결과를 토대로 앵커지지 흙막이벽에 작용하는 측방토압산정식을 마련하는데 있다. 앵커축력은 흙막이벽을 지지하기 위해 앵커두부에 부착된 하중계로 측정하였으며 흙막이벽의 수평변위는 홀막이벽 배면에 설치된 경사계로 측정하였다. 앵커축력 및 흙막이벽 수평변위로 부터 산정된 앵커지지 홀막이벽에 작용하는 측방토압은 사다리들 분포를 나타내고 있었다. 이와 같은 측정토압과 여러 경험식으로 주어진 경험토압사이에는 약간의 차이가 있었다. 따라서 앵커지지 흙막이벽에 작용하는 측방토압은 종래 사용되고 있는 경험식에 약간의 수정을 가한 후 사용함이 바람직하다.
