Abstract

In this study theories of earth pressure such as Rankine, Coulomb, Trial Wedge, Improved Trial Wedge, used in the design for onshore and offshore structures, are analyzed and the characteristics of loaded pressure to virtual back (wall, plane) and wall surface in accordance with the structure type are suggested. To investigate characteristics of earth pressure, gravity retaining wall with inclined angle and cantilever wall with inclined ground are movilized for onshore structures and caisson and block type quay wall are mobilized for offshore structures. Based on various theories, the earth pressure applied angle(wall friction angle) and sliding angle toward the wall, which is influenced by the heel length, are calculated and compared. In the case of long heel, the pressure by Rankine's method in virtual plane and the mobilized angle are most reasonably estimated by the ground slope, and in the case of short heel, the pressure by Coulomb's method and the mobilized angle by the angle of wall friction. In addition, the sliding angle toward the wall estimated by the improved trial wedge method is large than the value of Rankine's method. Finally, in this study the reasonable method for calculating the pressure and the mobilized angle that can be applied to the routine design of port structures is proposed. The proposed method can decide the earth pressure with length of a heel and a self weight of retaining wall according to sliding angle toward the wall.

육상 및 항만 구조물 설계시 적용되고 있는 토압 이론(Rankine, Coulomb, 시행쐐기법, 개량시행쐐기법)을 정리하였고, 구조물 형태에 따라 가상배면(Vitural back, wall, plane)과 구조물 벽면에 작용하는 토압 특성 등을 제시하였다. 토압 특성을 검토하기 위해 육상구조물의 경우 배면토 경사에 따른 캔틸레버식 옹벽과 벽경사에 따른 중력식 옹벽, 해상구조물은 케이슨식 안벽과 블록식 안벽을 적용하였다. 여러 가지 토압이론을 적용하여 뒷굽 길이에 따른 토압, 작용각(벽면마찰각), 벽면측으로의 활동각 등을 분석한 결과 뒷굽이 긴 경우 가상배면에서의 작용토압은 Rankine 토압과 작용각은 지표경사각, 뒷굽이 짧은 경우 Coulomb 방법과 작용각은 벽마찰각으로 산정하는 것이 가장 합리적임을 알 수 있었다. 벽면측으로의 활동각은 Rankine 이론에 의한 활동각보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 현재 적용되고 있는 여러 가지 토압 산정법 및 작용각 중에서 항만 구조물 설계시 적용할 수 있는 적정 토압 산정방법을 제안하였다. 제안방법은 뒷굽장단 결정과 이에 따른 적정 토압산정법을 결정하고 벽면 측으로의 활동각에 따른 옹벽자중 고려 방법을 설정하도록 하였다.
