Abstract

Decomposed granite soil is likely to lose its strength when exposed to air or water. Such a geomaterial is weathered by wetting-drying or freezing-melting. In this study, resonant column tests were conducted to figure out the dynamic characteristics of granite soil that has affected by environmental changes like weathering condition. The results show that wetting-drying weathering condition is the most affective parameter on the dynamic characteristics of granite soil. In the meantime, artificial weathering conditions such as freezing-melting has less affection at first and getting increase as the process repeats constantly.

화강토는 우리나라에서 널리 분포하는 흙으로써 공기에 노출되거나 물과 접촉하면 강도특성이 쉽게 변화하는 흙으로 건설기술자가 가장 많이 당면하고 있는 지반재료이다. 특히, 이러한 재료는 계절적 환경변화를 거치게 되면서 토류구조물의 주 구성요소인 배면지반은 습윤-건조, 동결-융해 및 자연 또는 인공적인 풍화과정을 거치게 된다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 지반환경변화 후 화강토의 동적거동 특성에 미치는 지반환경 및 풍화조건이 무엇인지를 공진주 실험을 통해 연구하였다. 본 연구결과 화강토의 동적특성에 가장 큰 영향 미치고 있는 지반환경 조건은 습윤-건조 풍화조건이며, 다음으로 인공풍화 조건이 초기에는 큰 영향을 미치다가 동결-융해 사이클 횟수가 증가할수록 동결-융해 조건이 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
