Abstract

This paper describes the comparative results of measured and predicted values for the horizontal displacement of earth retaining wall based on two field cases, In order to examine the application of lateral earth pressure to the earth retaining wall considering the typical ground characteristics (clinker layer) in Jeju. The prediction of the lateral earth pressure causing the horizontal displacement of the retaining wall was performed by elasto-plastic analysis using Rankine earth pressure, Terzaghi & Peck modified lateral earth pressure, and Tschebotarioff lateral earth pressure. As a result, it was confirmed that the maximum horizontal displacement predicted at site A was about 5 times larger than the measured value, and the ground with maximum horizontal displacement occurred by the prediction was found to be the clinker layer. In the case of site B, the predicted value was 4 to 7 times larger than the measured value. In addition, the ground with maximum horizontal displacement and the tendency of horizontal displacement were very different depending on the prediction method. This means that research on lateral earth pressure that can consider regional characteristics needs to be continued, because it is due to the multi-layered ground characteristics of the Jeju area in which bedrock layers and clinker layers are alternately distributed,

본 연구에서는 제주 지역의 대표적인 지반 특성(클링커층)을 고려한 흙막이벽의 측방토압 적용을 고찰하기 위해 2개의 현장 사례를 이용하여 수평변위에 대한 계측값과 예측값을 비교하였다. 흙막이벽의 수평변위 발생에 기인하는 측방토압 예측은 Rankine 토압, Terzaghi & Peck 수정측방토압, Tschebotarioff 측방토압을 이용하여 탄소성해석을 실시하였다. 그 결과, A현장에서 예측된 최대 수평변위는 계측값에 비하여 약 5배가 큰 것으로 확인되었으며, 예측에 의한 최대 수평변위 발생 지반은 클링커층으로 나타났다. 그리고 B현장의 경우에는 예측값이 계측값에 비하여 4배에서 최대 7배까지 크게 나타났으며, 최대 수평변위가 발생한 지반과 수평변위 발생 경향은 예측 방법에 따라 매우 다른 경향을 보였다. 이는 암반층과 클링커층이 교호되어 분포되는 제주 지역의 다층지반 특성에 기인한 것이라 판단되기 때문에, 지역 특성을 고려할 수 있는 측방토압에 관한 연구가 지속될 필요가 있음을 의미한다.
