Abstract

Nowadays, some studies are performed in order to introduce the Limit State Design method widely used in foreign work sites. LRFD (Load Resistance Factor Design) method is widely used in the fields in which the data accumulation is possible - such as deep foundations, and shallow foundations, etc. The limit state design in the retaining walls is insufficient in the country owing to difficulties applying load tests. The limit state design method for retaining wall structures are studied based upon the National Retaining wall Design Standard legislated in 2008 by Ministry of Land, Transport, and Maritime Affairs. In this paper several retaining walls were calculated according to LRFD design criteria analysis using the general program with limit state design method and the factor of safety for sliding and overturning. Comparing with their results, the Taylor's series simple reliability analysis was performed. In the analysis results of retaining wall section, safety factors calculated by LRFD were found to be lowered than those calculated in current WSD, and it is possibly judged to be economic design by changing wall dimensions. In the future, pre-assessment of the geotechnical data for ensuring the reliability and the studies including reinforced retaining walls with ground anchor are needed.

국내에서는 외국현장에서 사용되고 있는 한계상태설계법을 도입하기 위하여 연구가 일부 진행 중이다. 국내외 한계상태 설계법에서는 말뚝기초, 얕은기초 등 비교적 데이터베이스를 구축하기 쉬운 분야로 설계기준이 마련되고 있으나 옹벽 등에 대하여 재하시험이 어려운 실정으로 옹벽의 한계상태설계법에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구는 2008년도에 제정된 국내 도로옹벽 표준도를 기준으로 옹벽구조물의 한계상태설계법의 적용성 평가에 관한 연구이다. 옹벽의 활동과 전도에 대한 안전율을 LRFD 설계기준을 이용하여 범용 한계상태설계법 프로그램의 해석결과와 비교 검토하였다. 또한 해석결과의 비교를 위하여 테일러 급수를 이용한 간편 신뢰성 분석을 실시하였다. 옹벽단면의 LRFD 검토 결과 허용응력설계법에 비해 안전율이 낮게 나타났으며, 한계상태설계 도입을 통해 옹벽의 단면을 감소시켜 경제성을 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 향후 신뢰성 확보를 위해 지반 데이터의 사전평가 연구가 필요하며, 그라운드 앵커와 같은 지보재가 적용되는 옹벽의 한계상태설계법 적용, 평가에 관한 연구도 필요하다.
