Abstract

For foundation of Port structure, it is essential geotechnical understanding about feature of ground and the geologic formation which is different to terrestrial ground. What is most important is the understanding of soft ground clay, which is much softer than terrestrial ground. To build foundation of a port structure which is mainly gravity based on the special geographical circumstance that is on the sea, the improvement method of foundation should be applied according to soft clay ground features. Therefore, in this study, the behaviors of improved materials with strength were analyzed on the soft clay foundation where suppose to be located the foundation of port structure. The laboratory model test has been conducted in 2 cases with unconfined compression strength of improved materials, 25kPa and 125kPa. Cement, water, and in-situ soft clay were combined at a fixed rate and made a shape of 5cm diameter ${\times}$ 70cm height column. Improved materials were located with replacement ratio(11%, 35% and 61%) in 38cm diameter ${\times}$ 80cm height cylinder. Finally, the stress distribution ratio on the improved materials and clay, settlement was analyzed by applying a load of 10kPa, 30kPa, and 50kPa.

항만구조물의 기초는 육상과 다른 지층분포 및 기초지반의 특징에 대한 토질 공학적 이해가 필요하며 가장 먼저 접근해야 할 사항은 육상의 지층특성에 비해 상대적으로 연약한 점토지반이 주를 이룬다는 것이다. 해상이라는 지리적 환경과 중력식 구조물이 주가 되는 항만구조물의 기초를 시공하기 위하여 연약한 점토지반의 특성에 따라 필연적으로 기초처리 공법을 적용하여야 한다. 따라서 이 연구는 항만구조물 기초가 놓이게 되는 점토지반에 대한 기초처리공법 중에서 시멘트계열 개량체의 강도별 거동을 실내 모형실험을 통하여 분석하였다. 실내 모형실험은 시멘트와 물, 원지반 점토를 일정 비율로 교반하여 일축압축강도 기준 25kPa과 125kPa의 2 case로, 시멘트계열 개량체를 직경 5cm, 높이 70cm 크기로 제작하여 직경 38cm, 높이 80cm인 원형 토조에 말뚝식 배치로 11%, 35%, 61%의 치환율로 조성하고 각 단계별로 10kPa, 30kPa, 50kPa의 하중을 재하하여 시멘트계열 개량체와 점토지반에 작용하는 응력분담비, 침하관계를 분석하였다.
