Abstract

In January 2022, a new legislation was enforced to enhance the safety of underground construction. Consequently, a comprehensive assessment of underground safety is now an integral part of the planning process, including an evaluation of its impact. Ensuring the stability of temporary retaining walls during underground excavation has become paramount, prompting a heightened focus on the assessment of underground safety. This study delves into the analysis of the Multi-axis Flat Continuous Soil Cement Wall retaining wall (MFS) construction method. This method facilitates the expansion of wall thickness in the ground and provides flexibility in selecting and spacing H-piles. Through laboratory model tests, we scrutinized the load-displacement behavior of the wall, varying the H-pile installation intervals using the MFS method. Additionally, a 3-dimensional numerical analysis was conducted to explore the influence of H-pile installation intervals and sizes on the load for different thicknesses of the MFS retaining wall. The displacement analysis yielded the calculation of the height of the arching effect acting on the wall. To further our understanding, a design method was introduced, quantitatively analyzing the results of axial force and shear force acting on the wall. This involved applying the maximum arching height, calculated by the MFS method, to the existing member force review method. The axial force and shear force, contingent on the H-pile installation interval and size applied to the MFS retaining wall, demonstrated a reduction effect ranging from 24.6% to 62.9%.

최근 지하안전에 관한 특별법이 시행(2022년 1월)되었으며, 지하안전영향평가를 통해 계획단계부터 지하안전에 관한 사전검토가 실시되고 있다. 지하굴착을 위해서는 가설 흙막이의 구조 안전성을 확보하는 것이 중요하므로 지하안전 검토는 더욱 강화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토사지반에서 Soil-Cement 흙막이의 벽체 두께를 확대하고 H-pile의 선택과 설치간격을 자유롭게 할 수 있는 MFS(Multi-axis Flat Continuous Soil Cement Earth Retaining Wall) 흙막이 벽체 공법의 거동 특성을 분석하였다. 실내모형실험을 통해 MFS 공법의 H-pile 설치간격에 따른 벽체에 작용하는 하중-변위 거동을 확인하였으며, MFS 흙막이 벽체의 두께별 H-pile 설치간격 및 크기 변화에 따른 하중-변위를 3차원 수치해석으로 분석하여 벽체에 작용하는 아칭효과 높이를 산정하였다. MFS 공법에서 산정한 최대 아칭높이를 기존의 부재력 검토 방법에 적용하여 벽체에 작용하는 축력, 전단력을 정량적으로 분석하는 설계방법을 제시하였다. 그 결과 MFS 흙막이 벽체에 적용되는 H-pile 설치 간격 및 크기에 따른 축력 및 전단력이 24.6~62.9%가 저감하는 것을 확인하였다.
