Abstract

A pressuremeter is an expandable tube which is placed in the soil, and then expanded under controlled condition against the soil. From this test a pressure expansion curve of the soil can be obtained. However soil disturbance during the test has significant influence on the results of tests. A general governing equation for pressuremeter test can be theoretically derived on the basis of the hyperbolic soil model and the cavity expansion theory. The curve fitting technique was used to establish the pressure-strain curve without disturbance of soil during testing. This interpretation makes use of both the loading and unloading portions of the test. An interpretation methodology is described and illustrated with pressuremeter test data carried out in the weathered granitic soil to estimate initial shear modulus. Standard penetration test is a very common site investigation technique in Korea. Therefore the blow counts of standard penetration test are discussed by comparing them with initial shear modulus.

공내재하시험은 고무 튜브를 보링공에 넣어 압축을 가함으로써 압력과 변형관계 곡선을 얻을 수 있는데 지반교란이 해석 결과에 큰 영향을 미친다. 공내재하시험의 지배방정식은 공동확장이론과 쌍곡선 형태의 흙모델을 기본으로 이론적으로 유도할 수 있으며 이렇게 유도된 식과 곡선 보정기법을 적용시키면 지반교란이 없는 상태의 응력-변형 곡선을 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 해석 방법은 재하단계에 적용할 수 있으며 국내의 화강풍화토의 공내재하시험 결과에 적용하여 초기전 단계수를 구하였다. 이렇게 구한 초기전단계수값을 표준관입시험 결과와 비교 분석하여 초기전 단계수값과 표준관입시험의 상관관계를 구하였다.
