Abstract

In this study, ways to reduce the edge pressure at the bottom plate of the caisson breakwater were considered. The water depth, freeboard, design wave height and period, and the location of the center of gravity on the super-structure of the breakwater were selected as key design variables that influence the edge pressure, and analyzed how the edge pressure changes according to the change of this key variables. The pressure distribution formulae suggested in the design standard was applied for the calculation of design wave forces. Based on the wave forces, the required effective self-weight of the super-structure and the minimum width of the caisson were determined to have a safety factor of 1.2 against sliding and overturning. From the results, it was found that the edge pressure rapidly increased as the water depth increased, and could exceed the allowable bearing capacity when it reached a certain water depth which is 20 m within the analysis conditions. It was also confirmed that the edge pressure gradually increased linearly as the freeboard increased, but decreased with the increase of the wave height and period. This edge pressure could be significantly reduced up to more than 20% by moving the center of gravity of the super-structure to the seaside, which is 5% of the caisson width. Based on the analysis results and the recently conducted research results, a method was proposed to reduce the edge pressure that can be used in the design.

본 연구에서는 케이슨 방파제 바닥판 단부 지지력 저감방안에 대해서 고찰하였다. 단부 지지력에 영향을 미치는 핵심변수로 설치수심, 마루높이, 설계파고 및 주기, 방파제 상부구조의 무게중심 위치 등을 선정하여, 이 핵심변수의 변화에 따라 단부 지지력이 어떻게 변하는지를 해석적으로 살펴보았다. 설계파력은 설계기준에서 제시하고 있는 파력식을 적용하여 산정하였으며, 설계파력에 대해 활동과 전도에 대해 안전율 1.2를 갖도록 상부구조 안정중량과 케이슨 최소 폭을 결정하여 적용하였다. 해석결과, 단부 지지력은 수심 증가에 따라 빠르게 증가하여, 일정 수심 이상(해석조건 내에서는 20 m)이 되면 허용지반지지력을 상회할 수 있고, 마루높이가 증가하면 단부 지지력이 완만히 선형적으로 증가하지만, 파고와 주기의 증가에 따라서는 감소함을 확인하였다. 또한, 이러한 단부 지지력은 상부구조 무게중심을 외해측으로 이동시켜 상당 수준 완화(해석조건 내에서는 케이슨 폭의 5% 이동시키면 20% 이상 저감 가능)시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이번 해석결과와 최근에 수행된 연구결과에 기초하여 설계 시 사용할 수 있는 단부 지지력 저감방안을 제시하고 그 적용성을 평가하였다.
