Abstract

Together with the wall stiffness, a berm has the role of deciding the stability of a temporary retaining wall before structure installation after excavation. Especially in case of loose or soft soil excavated ground, the role of berm is very important. In this study, the measurement data obtained from the temporary retaining wall in the bermed excavation site in urban and numerical analysis are used to investigate the effects of berm's dimension (width and slope), excavation depth and ground property on the maximum horizontal displacement of the temporary retaining wall. The measurement data indicated that the wall displacement varied to the berm's width. That is, as the berm width decreased, the wall displacement increased. As a result of numerical analyses, the maximum wall displacement increased as slope increased and berm width decreased. This means that the berm is effectively restrained to the wall displacement. As excavation depth increased, the effect of berm's slope and width increased. In case of the same berm condition, the wall displacement restrained as ground property increased.

소단은 굴착 후 지지구조물이 설치되기 전 벽체의 강성과 더불어 가설벽체의 안정성을 좌우하는 역할을 한다. 특히 굴착지반이 느슨하거나 연약한 경우 소단의 역할은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 소단을 이용한 도심지 버팀굴착현장의 계측결과와 수치해석을 사용하여 가설벽체의 최대수평변위에 미치는 소단의 규모(폭과 경사) 및 굴착깊이, 지반물성의 영향을 분석하였다. 계측결과 소단 폭이 짧아질수록 벽체의 수평변위는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 수치해석 결과 소단의 경사가 급해질수록, 소단폭이 짧아질수록 최대수평변위량은 크게 나타나 소단이 벽체의 변위를 억제하는데 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 굴착심도가 깊어질수록 소단폭과 경사의 영향을 크게 받는 것으로 나타났다. 동일한 소단 조건에서 지반물성이 높을수록 벽체의 최대수평변위를 억제하는 것으로 나타났다.
