Abstract

To create a large-scale complex, it is often the case to perform ground improvement by using vertical drain method after the reclamation of coastal soft ground, for construction period shortening and stable site renovation. During this process, the pore water migrates to the horizontal drainage layer of the ground surface through the vertical drain installed in the soft ground and discharged out to the open. In the past sand was used as the material for the horizontal drainage layer in numerous cases, however recently, due to material shortage and high pricing, the use of crushed stones has increased. To prevent mixing of the materials between the horizontal drainage layer and the upper landfill, geosynthetics (PPMat) are installed. However, the use of geosynthetics results in high additional cost for material purchase and installation, therefore it is necessary to examine the validity of the installation itself. In this study, to verify the necessity, model tests were performed. Results from the model tests indicate that the drainage ability of the horizontal drainage layer is barely affected by the application of geosynthetics.

대단위 부지조성을 위해 해안연약지반을 매립후 공기단축 및 안정된 부지를 조성하고자 대부분 연직배수재를 이용하여 지반 개량을 시행한다. 이 과정에서 연약지반내 설치한 연직배수재를 통하여 지반내 간극수가 지표면의 수평배수층으로 이동하여 외부로 배출된다. 과거에는 이 수평배수층 재료로 모래를 사용하였으나 근래에는 재료 품귀 및 단가 상승으로 쇄석으로 조성하는데 상부 성토층과 혼재를 방지하기 위하여 토목섬유(P.P. Mat)를 설치한다. 토목섬유의 설치시 재료비 및 시공비가 발생하여 토목섬유 적용 필요성에 대하여 실내에서 모형토조를 이용하여 단계별로 하중을 달리하고 유입량을 변화시켜 실험한 결과 토목섬유 적용에 따른 통수능에는 큰 차이가 없음을 알 수 있었다.
