Abstract

To evaluate the smear zone caused by the drain installation, 10 piezometers were installed in the typical soft ground in the western coastal area of Korea. The dynamic pore water pressure developed during the drain installation was monitored using piezometers installed at a distance of 10cm, 20cm, 30cm, 40cm and 50cm from the location of the drain. The decay of pore pressure with time after pushing piezometers to depths of 5 meters and 7 meters during the drain installation was monitored to assess flow and consolidation characteristics of the soil after disturbance of the soil due to the drain installation. The drain installation results in shear strain and displacement of the soil and it decreases the permeability of the soil. Hence, the comparison between dissipation of the pore water pressure process in 10 pieszometers before as well as after installation of the drain indicated the diameter of disturbance zone and smear zone, which is related to the cross-sectional dimension of the mandrel. In addition, Cone-pressuremeter(CPM) tests were performed to obtain rigidity index of the soil for an interpretation of the dissipation processes. It has been evaluated by in-situ tests that the smear zone is from 3.0 to 3.6 times of the cross-sectional dimension of the mandrel. The hydraulic conductivity expressed in terms of the coefficient of consolidation after the drain installation was calculated from 3 to 8 times decrease evaluated by Teh & Houlsby equation and CPM test results.

본 논문에서는 국내 서해안 연약 지반 현장에서 PBD 타설로 인한 교란 영역을 확인하기 위하여 현장지반에 10개의 간극수압계를 PBD 타설 위치로부터 10cm, 20cm, 30cm, 40cm 그리고 50cm 그리고 50cm 떨어져 설치하고 멘드렐을 이용한 PBD 강제 관입시 발생하는 과잉간극수압의 소산과정을 5m, 7m 깊이에서 측정하였다. PBD 타설로 인해 지반교란이 발생하면 연약점토 지반의 투수계수가 감소하게 되어 과잉간극수압의 소산시간에 영향을 미치게 되므로 PBD 타설거리로부터 PBD 타설 전후의 과잉간극수압 소산과정을 측정하여 Smear Zone의 범위를 정하였다. 또한 이러한 과잉간극수압 소산과정을 해석하여 PBD타설 전후의 지반 배수특성저하를 규명하였다. 과잉간극수압 소산을 해석하기 위하여 시험 지반의 강성지수가 필요한데 이러한 강성지수 측정을 위하여 Cone-Pressuremeter(CPM)시험을 병행하였다. 시험결과 멘드렐의 환산직경의 3.0-3.6배에 Smear Zone이 형성되는 것으로 조사되었으며 Teh & Houlsby의 식과 CPM을 이용한 수평압밀계수를 평가한 결과 PBD타설전후로 지반의 배수능력이 3-8배 저하된 것으로 계산되었다.
