Abstract

In this study, the infiltration quantity of fine-grained soil into coarse-grained soil or aggregate for methods to accelerate consolidation drainage is checked by laboratory tests under various conditions and those characteristics on infiltration are examined closely. Irrespectively of pressures to fine-grained soil corresponding to stresses in a soil mass or moisture contents of fine-grained soil, fine-grained soil does not infiltrate into standard sand and marine sand, so it is verified that drain-resistance into sand mass of drainage / pile does not occur entirely and its shear strength would increase highly by water compaction. It is known that the infiltration depth of fine-grained soil into aggregate increases according that those size is larger in case of aggregates and it increases according that the pressure or the moisture contents is higher in case of same size aggregate. It is thought that drain-resistance into aggregate mass of drainage / pile would occurs by infiltrated fine-grained soil in advance though the infiltration depth of fine-grained soi of lower moisture content than liquid limit into 13 mm aggregate is low quietly. So gravel drain method or gravel compaction pile method, etc. using aggregate of gravels or crushed stones, etc. larger than sand particle size should be not applied in very soft fine-grained soil mass of higher natural moisture contents than liquid limit, and it is thought that its applying is not nearly efficient also in soft fine-grained soil mass of lower natural moisture contents than liquid limit.

본 연구에서는 압밀 배수를 촉진하기 위한 공법에서 사용되는 조립토나 골재로의 세립토 관입 정도를 다양한 조건에서 실험을 통해 확인하여 세립토의 조립토나 골재로의 관입특성을 규명하였다. 지중응력에 대응하는 압력의 크기나 세립토 함수비의 변화에 상관없이 해성점토가 해사나 표준사로는 관입되지 않아 모래 배수/말뚝 체에서의 배수저항 현상은 전혀 발생하지 않은 것으로 확인되었고, 오히려 물다짐에 의한 모래 배수/말뚝 체의 전단강도가 크게 증대한 것으로 보인다. 골재의 경우에는 골재의 입경이 클수록 해성점토의 관입깊이는 증대하고, 같은 골재라도 압력이나 함수비가 클수록 해성점토의 관입깊이는 증대함을 알 수 있었으며, 액성한계보다 작은 함수비를 갖는 해성점토는 입자가 작은 편인 13mm 골재로의 관입깊이가 현저하게 줄어들어 그 관입깊이가 상당히 적다 하더라도 일단 관입된 세립토에 의해 배수/말뚝 체에서의 배수저항 현상이 발생할 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 자연함수비가 액성한계보다 큰 매우 연약한 세립토층에서는 모래보다 큰 입경을 갖는 쇄석이나 자갈 등 골재를 사용하는 gravel drain 공법 및 gravel compaction pile 공법 등의 적용을 지양해야 하고, 자연함수비가 액성한계보다 작은 연약한 세립토 지반에서도 gravel drain 공법 및 gravel compaction pile 공법 등과 같은 연직배수공법을 적용할 경우 그 효용성은 크게 저하할 것으로 사료된다.
