Abstract

In the case of excavating ground backfilled with soft ground, ground destruction occurs owing to the discharge of groundwater from excavated back ground in spite of earth retaining wall. To minimize this, indoor model test was implemented applying stabilizing pile as a solution for ground destruction. The unreinforced case was compared with the reinforced case and the comparison demonstrated that the ratio of the gap in settlement of the two cases is about three to one, which proves the reinforcement effect (Kim, 2014). This study has carried out the evaluation of appropriate pile spacing ratio, according to the confirmed effect of stabilizing pile. In the evaluation test the case with pile spacing ratio of 0.66 (5 stabilizing piles) was compared with that of 0.76 (3 stabilizing piles), and it has been shown that applying stabilizing pile has effect on ground destruction reduction, but may rather work as load when pile spacing ratio is narrower than a certain interval. So it was found that adjustment for appropriate pile spacing ratio is required at the stage of design. This study has shown that the pile spacing ratio is appropriate at around 0.7~0.8, which reduces ground destruction and does not function as the load of excavated back ground.

연약지반을 매립한 지반에 굴착을 시행할 경우 흙막이 벽체를 설치하더라도 굴착에 따른 굴착배면 지반의 지하수 유출로 배면지반에 지반파괴가 발생한다. 이를 최소화하기 위해 지반파괴 저감 대책으로 억지말뚝을 적용한 실내모형 실험을 시행하여 무보강일 경우와 억지말뚝 보강시를 비교하여 침하량이 약 3배 정도 차이가 발생하는 보강효과를 확인하였다(Kim, 2014). 금번 연구에서는 이런 억지말뚝의 보강효과 확인에 따른 적정한 억지말뚝 간격비의 평가를 시행하였다. 말뚝 간격비를 0.66(억지말뚝 5개)과 0.76(억지말뚝 3개)로 구분하여 실험한 결과 억지말뚝 적용이 굴착시 지반파괴 저감에 대하여 효과는 있으나 일정간격 이상 좁은 경우 오히려 하중으로 작용할 수 있어 설계시 적절한 간격비의 조정이 필요함을 알 수 있었으며, 본 연구에서는 지반파괴의 저감효과가 있으면서 굴착배면의 하중으로도 작용하지 않는 적정 간격비는 0.7~0.8 정도가 적합하다고 판단되었다.
