초록

본 논문은 점성토에 시공된 트윈 병렬 터널로 인해 발생된 지반변형을 연구하기 위해 시행된 1g 모형실험의 과정 및 결과에 대해 기술한다. 트윈 병렬 터널 시공 시, 터널 2(후행터널)로 인한 지반침하는 터널 1(선행터널)로 인한 지반침하와 다른 양상을 보였다. 그 양상은 지반손실의 증가, 침하 폭의 증가, 최대침하의 증가 및 최대침하 위치의 이동으로 요약된다. 따라서 터널 2로 인한 지반침하를 예측하기 위해 기존 Gaussian curve방법을 이용하는 것은 적절치 못하다. 이에 본 논문은 터널 2로 인한 지반침하 예측 개선을 위해 새로운 지반침하 예측 방법(Modification factor방법)을 소개한다. 본 논문은 Modification factor 방법의 실대형 현장 상황 적용을 위한 파라미터 선택에 대해 기술하며, 또한 그 적용 한계에 대해 토의한다.

This paper describes the findings obtained from a research project aimed at investigating, via 1 g laboratory model tests, the ground movements caused by multiple side-by-side (sbs) tunnel construction in clay. The ground movements above a second tunnel showed different trends from those observed above a first tunnel. These trends include an increase in the overall volume loss, and a widening of the settlement troughs on the near limb of the trough accompanied by a shift of the maximum settlement towards existing tunnel. This would suggest that the use of simple predictive methods of adopting a Gaussian curve for analysing the ground settlements associated with twin (sbs) tunnel construction is not appropriate. Therefore the current paper adopts a method that modifies the Gaussian curve approach in order to improve the predictions. This paper comments on the parameter selection involved with adopting this new method to apply it to full-scale field situations, and also discusses its limitations.
