When structures are constructed in ground with poor bearing capacity, deformation of ground may induce foundation settlements and cracks of structures. Recently, high pressure jet grouting is widely used to improve the engineering properties of such foundation. Sometimes, the grouting columns are built in the ground by jet grouting method. They are used as in -situ piles to increase the bearing capacity of existing foundation. In this paper, as for the grouting columns built in ground by high pressure jet grouting with double tube rod, the effects on reinforcement and bearing capacity of ground are investigated. A series of laboratory tests has been performed on the specimens sampled from the grouting columns and a pile load test has been performed on a grouting column. The test results show that high pressure jet grouting has a sufficient effect on reinforcement of ground and restraint of settlement of structure.

When braced excavation with temporary retaining wall installation, is performed in loose sand with high ground water level boiling may be induced and considerable damage on the excavation works and structures in the vicinity can take place. Recently, for the purpose of reinforcement of ground and cut-off of ground water behind the temporary retaining wall, high pressure jet grouting is widely used. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of jet grouting on ground reinforcement and cut -off of the ground water behind temporary retaining walls for braced excavation. A series of both laboratory and field tests has been performed. The test results show that high pressure jet grouting has sufficient effects on reinforcement of stiffness of ground and retaining wall. The permeability of the improved ground was 10-f_ 10-3cm l s smaller than those of the original ground. Therefore, the effect on cut off of ground water behind temporary retaining walls could be improved by high pressure jet grouting method.

This study was carried out in 1979 to establish the proper mulching culture method for an aromatic tobacco, ST 375-4. Three different methods of mulching were employed: Improved mulching (I. M.), General mulching (G. M.) and Non-mulching (N. M.). The number of seedlings per hole was 5 for I. M., and one for G. M. and N. M. In comparison with N. M., I. M. had shortened final date of leaf harvest by 14 days, enabling curing leaves before the rainy season. It also reduced transplanting labour hours by 44.9%. Yield and price value increased with improved mulching culture. There was little difference in relative light intensity at leaves between N. M. and I. M.

Pile or column supported embankments have been increasingly employed to construct highway or railway embankments over soft soils. Piles or columns of stiffer material installed in the soft ground can provide the necessary support by transferring the embankment load to a firm stratum using a soil arching. However, there has been reported to occur a relatively large differential settlement between the piles and the untreated soils. Geosynthetic reinforced pile or column supported embankment (GRPS) is often used to minimize the differential settlement. Two dimensional finite element anlyses have been performed on both the column supported embankments and the geogrid reinforced column supported embankments by using a PLAXIS 2D to evaluate the soil arching effect. Based on the results obtained from finite element analyses, the stress reduction ratio decreases as the area replacement ratio increases in the column supported embankments. For the geogrid reinforced column supported embankments, the geogrid reinforcemnt can reduce differential settlements effectively. In additon, the use of stiffer geogrid is appeared to be more effective in reducing the differential settlements.

Generally, the effect of the cement deep mixing method on the improvement of clay ground is far greater than the effect of physical improvement. Although it leads to great improvement strength in the initial stage, there are not many constructional precedents in Korea and it is hard to manage quality according to the cement-clay mixing method. In order to figure out the strength characteristics according to the mixing ratio of cement, sand, and clay and the improvement characteristics of weak ground according to the forms of the specimens to be improved, marine clay was used in this study to conduct the uniaxial compression test and soil bin model test. The test piece specimens for the uniaxial compression test were mixed with sand in a fixed ratio with the criterion of the water cement ratio. The cement was mixed with clay in the ratios of 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% to the clay weight. The moisture content of the soil ground was made in the ratios of 40%, 60%, and 80%. The test piece specimens went through curing by moistening for 7, 14, and 28 days and underwent the uniaxial compression test according to the curing period. For the bearing test, the soil bin models were made and the ground improved in the Mat type was formed. After that, the bearing strength was compared in this study according to the improvement ratio and analyzed the intervening effect between the walls of the improved specimens.

일면전단시험은 전단면의 응력을 직접 측정하므로 평면변형시 강도를 파악할 수 있는 등의 많은 장점을 가지고 있으며, 시험조작이 간편하기 때문에 실용적으로도 우수한 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 사질토의 경우에 의한, Dilatancy에 의한 체적변화과정에서 공시체와 전단상자의 주면마찰력이 전단면의 수직 응력을 증감시키기 때문에 구해지는 강도가 과대 또는 과소하게 나타나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 반력판측에 장착한 하중계를 통해 전단면의 수직응력을 직접 측정 제어하는 형식으로 개선되어 주면마찰력의 영향을 해소하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 반력판측에 하중계를 장착한 개량형 다단식 단순전단시험기를 개발하여 사질토의 정압(CD)조건 전단시험을 수행하여 강도특성과 전단강도에 미치는 영향을 개량형 일면전단시험의 결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과 정압조건의 일면전단시험과 단순전단시험에 의한 강도정수는 조밀한 모래의 경우는 거의 비슷하게 나타나며, 느슨한 모래의 경우는 일면전단이 다소 크게 나타났다. 그리고 단순전단과 일면전단시험에서의 Dilatancy거동에는 큰 차이가 나타나지 않았다.

The number of construction of roads and railroads in soft ground such as coastal areas and wetlands is getting increased. For this reason cases that soft ground improvement is applied are increasing. In general, many ground improvement methods consider only the working conditions at the time or only economy. But if the working condition and economy are taken into consideration together, the number of applicable construction method gets limited. In such a case, a ground improvement method using both the surface layer portion and the deep layer portion is applied. But the basic research on this is still insufficient in practice. Therefore, in this study the reinforcement effect of geogrid was investigated by carrying out the model test realizing the case in which soft surface ground improvement and depth improvement are simultaneously applied. And it was intened to understand the effect of the thickness of surface layer, the diameter and length of the improvement body on the reinforcement effect of geogrid. The result showed that the effect of the surface layer thickness is greater than the effect of the deep layer diameter. Moreover, when the surface layer is reinforced with a geogrid, the strength of the surface layer part is enhanced and this effect of a geogrid reinforcement caused the reduction of surface settlement.
