초록

최근 해빙기에 발생하는 지반붕괴로 인한 건설재해가 증가하고 있으며 이는 동절기에 시행되는 다짐시공과 관련이 많다. 영하온도에서 다짐을 실시할 경우 다짐효과가 감소하며 이에 따른 해빙기 지반의 거동 변화를 파악하는 것은 유용한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 최근 국내 지반공학 분야에서 불포화 영역에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있는 만큼 지반재료의 영하온도 다짐 및 동결융해에 따른 불포화 특성을 파악한다면 앞으로 관련 분야의 연구자들에게도 좋은 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동절기 다짐에 따른 지반의 불포화 특성을 파악하기 위해 상온($18^{\circ}C$)과 영하온도($-3^{\circ}C$, $-8^{\circ}C$)에서 수행한 다짐시험의 결과를 바탕으로 성형한 시료에 불포화 함수특성시험과 불포화 일축압축시험을 수행하였으며, 시료에 동결융해를 반복적으로 가한 후 불포화 함수특성시험 및 일축압축시험을 수행하여 동결융해가 작용함에 따른 지반의 흡수력 및 불포화 특성의 변화를 파악하였다. 시험결과 영하온도에서의 다짐 및 동결융해에 의한 흡수력의 변화와 강도 및 강성의 감소를 확인하였다. 특히 풍화토의 경우 영하온도에서의 다짐과 동결융해가 진행될수록 강도와 흡수력이 상당히 감소하는 것으로 나타나 지반의 안정성에 상당한 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, construction disasters in thawing season are increasing due to the ground collapse and it is related to the improper compaction during winter season. Compaction at sub-zero temperature reduces the compaction effect and the research of mechanical properties of thawed soil after winter compaction can be used as useful data to understand the behavior of the ground in the thawing season. On the other hand, the research interest in the unsaturated soil mechanics has been increasing in the field of the geotechnical engineering. Therefore, it is expected that the research of unsaturated characteristics under the compaction of sub-zero temperature and freezing & thawing condition provides information to the researchers in the related fields. Therefore, in this research, unsaturated soil-water characteristics test and unsaturated uniaxial compression test were conducted on the specimens compacted at sub-zero temperature and continuous freezing & thawing condition to investigate change of unsaturated characteristics and matric suction. Based on the test results, the change of matric suction and the decrease of strength and stiffness were observed with the freezing & thawing conditions. Especially in case of the weathered soil, the strength and matric suction were significantly reduced with lower temperature and more repetition of freezing & thawing cycles. This result implies that compaction of sub-zero temperature and freezing & thawing cycles will have a considerable influence on the stability of the ground.
