Abstract

Baeknokdam rock mass at the crest of Halla mountain is composed of Baeknokdam trachybasalt in the eastern region and Hallasan trachyte in the western region. On-going weathering, rockfall and collapse of Baeknokdam wall rock are closely linked to the weathering of trachyte distributed in the western region of Baeknokdam, though within the restricted area of eastern region trachybasalt blocks has been naturally formed and may be rolled down neering properties have been conducted. Based on the results of these experiments variations of mineralogical-petrographical characteristics of trachyte together with chemical and physical properties with respect to the degree of weathering have been analyzed. Weathering mechanism of Baeknokdam trachyte has been delineated by investigating the environmental cause of weathering and the peculiar features of weathered rock mass.

한라산 정상부의 백록담 암체는 백록담조면현무암이 분포하는 동측구역과 한라산조면암이 분포하는 서측구역으로 구분된다. 백록담에서 진행되는 풍화, 암벽붕괴, 낙반은 전반적으로 백록담 서측구역에 분포하는 한라산 조면암의 풍화작용과 밀접한 연관성을 가지며, 동측구역에서는 개별 암석 블록들의 국지적 붕락현상이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 한라산조 면암 분포지역의 지질학적 및 지형학적 특성을 조사하였으며, 풍화단계별로 조면암 시료를 채취하여 편광현미경분석, X-선 회절분석, 전자현미경관찰, 지화학분석, 공학적 물성시험 등을 수행하였다. 실험결과에 의거하여 한라산조면암의 광물 암석학적 특성변화, 화학적 특성변화와 물리적 특성변화를 분석하였으며, 백록담을 구성하는 조면암체의 풍화특성과 원인을 조사하여 풍화 메커니즘을 고찰하였다.
