Abstract

To investigate the engineering characteristics of crushed rockfill material, the large-scaled triaxial tests have been carried out, The rpckfill is made from the greywacke, and the 3 parallel gradations with different maximum particle size(dmu=38.1mm, 25.4mm and 19.1mm) were designed for the test. The dimension of the specimen is 300mm in diameter and 600mm in height, and the applied confining stress varied from 5t/$51.6^{\circ}$ to 60t/$51.6^{\circ}$. The test results show that the influence of the maximum particle size on the stress -strain r$51.6^{\circ}\; to\; 40.5^{\circ}$ when the confining stress increases from 5t/$51.6^{\circ}$ to 60t/$51.6^{\circ}$ The hyperbolic parameter values estimated from the test result for rockfill are much different from the recommended values by Duncan et. at(1980) for GW and GP material, especially in the $\phi$ ad K-values.

파쇄된 석괴댐 재료의 공학적 특성을 조사하기 위하여 대형 삼축시험을 실시하였다. 시험에 사용된 재료는 greywacke이고, 시료는 골재의 최대 치수가 각각 38.1mm, 25.4mm 및 19.1mm이며 서로 평행한 3개의 입도분포곡선을 사용하였다. 시료의 크기는 $\phi300mm\times600mm$이고, 구속응력은 5t/$m^2$에서 60t/$m^2$까지 변화시켰다. 시험결과, 석피재료의 응력-변형율 관계 및 내부마찰각에 미치는 골재의 최대치수의 영향은 무시할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 구속응력이 5t/$m^2$에서 60t/$m^2$으로 증가될 때, 내부마찰각은 $51.6^{\circ}$에서부터 $40.5^{\circ}$까지 감소 하였다. 석괴재료에 대한 삼축시험결과로부터 쌍곡선 모델의 매개 변수를 산정하여, 이 값들을 Duncan등(1980)의 입상재료(GW및 GP재료)에 대한 추천치와 비교하였다. 매개변수중, 석괴재료의 시험결과로부터 산정된 no 및 K치가 특히 입상재료(GW및 GP재료)에 대한 추천치와 많은 차이를 보이는 것으로 판명되었다.
