Abstract

In the construction on low strength and high compressible soft ground, the many problems have been occurred in recent construction project. therefore, the soil improvement have been developed to obtain high strength in relatively short period of curing time. Based on the laboratory tests using undisturbed marine clay, the effect of improvement on soft ground was estimated. Deep mixing method by cement have been virtually used for decades to improve the mechanical properties of soft ground. However, previous researches set the focus on the short term strength the about 10% of cement treated clay. In this paper, cement and Natural Soil Stabilizer (NSS) were used as the stabilizing agent to obtain trafficability and mechanical strength of the soft clay. Based on the several laboratory tests, optimum condition was proposed to ensure the mechanical strength and compressibility as the foundation soil using cement and NSS mixed soil. Finally, research data was proposed about the applicability of NSS as the stabilizing agent to soft clay to increase the mechanical strength of soil.

선진국에서는 준설토의 고함수비 특성을 제어하기 위해 다양한 고화제를 이용하는 공법을 개발하고 있으며 이 중 점토에 시멘트를 혼합하는 방법은 주로 심층혼합공법 등 연약지반의 개량공법으로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 이에 관련된 연구는 고화제가 10% 전후의 혼합률을 갖고 있으며 이러한 혼합점토의 단기적인 특성에 대한 실험적 구명에 집중되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 연약지반의 개량공법 적용 시 준설점토를 시멘트와 친토양 경화재로 고결시켜 장비의 주행성을 확보할 목적으로 시멘트와 친토양 경화재(NSS)를 혼합교반 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 원지반의 건조중량 대비 시멘트, NSS의 혼합비 및 양생기간(7일, 14일, 28일)에 따른 개량토의 일축압축강도 특성을 규명하고자 하였으며, 준설토 재활용을 위한 기술개발을 위하여 경량화제를 첨가하지 않은 시멘트혼합처리 방법과 친토양 경화재인 NSS를 혼합한 지반의 강도특성을 제공함으로써 차후 연약지반 개량을 위한 장비의 주행성을 확보하는데 연구의 목적을 두었다.
