Abstract

The passive surface wave survey using microtremor is conducted in areas of crystalline rock basements to obtain average shear-wave velocity structures to 30 m deep (Vs30), on which the earthquake-resistant design standard is based. Test data were recorded at two sites with triangular and L-shaped arrays for 4 seconds with an sampling interval of 2 ms. The microtremor recorded at a site were analysed using the spatial autocorrelation method to obtain phase-velocity spectra and effects of major factors such as size and shape of away and number of record and receiver were examined. At the other site, shear-wave velocities were derived from VSP and microtremor data separately. The results from these two methods agree to each other reasonably well, indicating that the microtremor method can be an effective geophysical tool to measure Vs30.

상시미동을 이용하는 수동적 표면파 탐사를 결정질암 기반암 지역에서 실시하여, 내진설계 지반분류 기준인 30 m 깊이까지의 평균 횡파속도(Vs30)를 구하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 시험자료는 조사지 A와 B에서 삼각형 배열과 'L' 자형 직각 배열로 2 ms 간격으로 4초 동안 기록하였다. 조사지 A에서 기록한 자료를 공간 자기상관 방법으로 분석하여 위상속도 스펙트럼을 작성하고, 수신기 배열의 길이 및 형태, 기록 횟수, 수신기 수 등의 주요인자들의 영향을 고찰하였다. 조사지 B에서 상시미동 기록자료의 역산을 통해서 구한 횡파속도와 근처 시추공에서 수직탄성파 방법으로 구한 결과가 대체로 일치함을 보여 상시미동을 이용한 표면파 탐사법이 Vs30을 구하는데 효율적인 방법으로 판단된다.
