The 3-D analysis of terrain for route design and selection is being used as important basic data for effective judgement of political draft. This study is to decide efficient alignment of the entry route and design bridge by modeling, analyzing and displaying surface with digital terrain data. In this study we analyze slope, aspect, shaded-relief, line of sight and watershed on the base of DTM such as contour, TIN and grid. And we can not only esti mate end-area volume for road construction by calculating cut and fill and displaying mass-curve but also recognize the scene after execution with simulation of road and terrain. The result of this study reveals that visual effects of the 3-D terrain data are very effective for designer and decisionmaker to select and review alternative route with regard to terrain characteristics.

The supply of high quality filling materials for pavement base course or reclamation is getting harder. So, there is an attempt to use soft mudstones as an earth filling material in Pohang area. But the engineering properties of the soil deposit placed with soft mudstones have not been clearly evaluated yet. We investigated the water absorption and softening, the slaking behavior and the geological mechanism in order to obtain an effective way of estimating the magnitude of land subsidence and the reduction of soil strength. The applicability of soft mudstones is examined by a variety of laboratory tests and pilot-scale field tests. In addition, it is necessary to consider the environmental characteristics of soft mudstones as a reclaiming material, Consequently, the results from the current study can be used to prevent any construction defects due to the careless use of soft mudstones for the pavement base course or reclamation.

Due to the character of the climate of Korea, the pavement of a road is Influenced by freezing in winter season and thawing in thawing season. In the last few years, several articles have been devoted to the study to minimize the damage of freezing and thawing action. The purpose of this paper is to identify appropriacy of factors that influence road pavement thickness. We conduct the decision tree analysis on the field data of road pavement. The target variable is 'Frost penetration'. This value was calculated from the temperature data. The input variables are 'Region', 'Type of road pavement', 'Anti-frost layer', 'Month' and 'Air temperature'. The region was divided into 9 regions by freezing index $350{\sim}450^{\circ}C{\cdot}day$, $450{\sim}550^{\circ}C{\cdot}day$, $550{\sim}650^{\circ}C{\cdot}day$. The type of road pavement has three-section such as area of cutting, boundary area of cutting and bankin, lower area of banking. As the result, the variables that influence 'Frost penetration' are Month, followed by anti-frost layer, air temperature and region.

The thickness of anti-freezing layer has been empirically determined using the frost depth obtained from the freezing index and has not been generally considered as a structural layer in pavement design procedure. In fact, the anti-freezing layer makes a role in structural layer and enables to reduce the total thickness of pavement system. The objective of this study is to develop the statistical regression model for evaluating the structural capacity of anti-freezing layer using Falling Weight Deflectormeter(FWD) test data in asphalt pavements. The FWD testing was conducted at the embankment, cutting, and boundary area of various test sections to estimate the structural capacity of anti-freezing layer in different foundation condition. It is observed from this testing that the center deflections of pavement structure with anti-freezing layer are smaller than those without anti-freezing layer ranging from 0.4 to 82.6%. To determine the variables of statistical model, the correlation study has been conducted between various FWD deflection indexes and the anti-freezing layer thickness. It is found that the ${\Delta}BDI$(%)(${\Delta}Basin$ Damage Index(%)) is highly correlated with anti-freezing layer thickness. The ${\Delta}BDI$(%) model were developed for evaluating structural capacity of anti-freezing layer using linear mixed-effect models.

Trees, cultivated in containers, are appropriate in soil deformation such as road sites with cutting and filling. This study tested the effectiveness of trees produced in containers for early rootage in street tree transplantation. For the study, Korean Mountain Ashes(Sorbus alnifolia) were used for experimental groups. The groups were categorized into three categories: trees cultivated in containers with mulching treatment(group A), trees cultivated outdoors with mulching treatment (group B), and trees cultivated in containers with weeding treatment(group C). Each group consisted of ten trees of the same size and transplanted to the experimental site. In order to compare each group's rootage, the study was carried out with the chlorophyll fluorescence method by the analysis of photochemical reaction. As a result of the study, group B had the lowest the maximum fluorescence amount(P). The amount of fluorescence increased by OJ transition of the process, and appeared to reduce the photosystem II electron transport efficiency. In photosystem II, electron transfer energy flux through photosystem I(RE1o/RC, RE1o/CS) was also reduced by more than 20% in group B. These results may imply that transplantation of container-cultivated trees with mulching treatment provides the most rapid rootage among the groups. The weeding treatment is also more effective than mulching treatment for rapid rootage of street trees.

도로의 동상방지층을 설치하기 위하여 동결관입깊이를 산정하며, 동결지수는 대기온도의 강도와 지속시간의 누가영향으로 표시된다. 대기온도는 일평균 대기온도를 사용하며 4개/일 평균(대기온도$_4$)을 사용하는 것이 일반적이지만, 현재 기상청에서 제공하고 있는 일평균 대기온도는 8개/일(대기온도$_8$)를 제공하고 있다. 이러한 일평균 대기온도의 산정하는 방법이 동결지수의 산정결과에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여 한반도 남부지역(동결지수 $350^{\circ}C{\cdot}$일) 미만 6개지역을 저성토부, 절성경계부 및 절토부로 구분하여 15개소에 대하여 현장계측시스템을 구축하였다. 그리고 현장계측 시스템으로부터 얻어진 대기온도를 통하여 동결지수를 산정하여 비교하였다. 동결지수 비교결과 일반적으로 일평균 대기온도$_4$를 사용한 경우가 일평균 대기온도$_8$을 사용하는 경우보다 약 3% 전후 큰 것으로 나타나났으며, 6개 지역의 동결지수를 결정할 때 대기온도$_8$을 사용한 동결지수를 보정할 수 있는 보정식을 제안하였다.

Stability of embankment is influenced on landfill condition, permeability, shear strength and soil engineering propensity and so on, and need examination in reply because is different according to change of soil property of foundation ground and permeability condition. Analyzed seepage behaviour by finite element method for embankment, and change permeability of base to analyze effect that permeability of ground water table formation before embankment and analyze seepage behaviour to typical embankment in this research. In the case of permeability of foundation ground is 10 more than landfill permeability, rise of groundwater table was changed slightly. Pore water pressure was decreased slowly in landfill after rainfall. The effect of permeability of foundation ground was effected in change of pore water pressure. For permeability of foundation ground is 10 more than landfill, stability of road landfill was small changed during rainfall. But in the case of permeability of base soil similar to landfill permeability, road landfill stability was large decreased during rainfall.

CMV(Compaction Meter Value) obtained from compaction results using an accelerometer, which measures the impact on the ground and the resilient force of the ground, is compared with the other degree of compaction through regression analysis. As a result, there is no correlation between results from conventional test methods (e.g., the plate load test and field density test) and the degree of compaction evaluated by either the Geogauge or the dyanamic cone penetrometer. To assess the possibility of replacing the conventional test methods with new test methods using CMV, several degrees of compaction tests were carried out. Those results show that the CMV obtained from compaction results using an accelerometer can be used as a substitute for conventional methods to evaluate the stiffness characteristics of compacted soil.

We built multi-purpose large triaxial testing system that can test and evaluate various geotechnical design parameters such as shear strength, deformation modulus and stress-strain behaviour for large diameter granular materials, which are the most commonly used construction materials in the railway, road embankments. The details of the built testing system and the results obtained from static triaxial test carried out for gneiss ballast material are discussed within the scope of this paper. Ballast is hardly saturated and is confined at low overburden pressure, since the depth is shallow and the permeability is very high. Herein we ascertained that the confining pressure can effectively be controlled by vacuum. The rational trend could be checked up through triaxial test results such as shear strength, deformation, and particle breakage. And the shear strength envelope could be non-linearly represented with the parent rock strength, confining pressure of the triaxial test and proper parameters.

This paper holds three objects. The first is to analyze surveys of concerning zone and promotion department. The data were collected through an examination of construction excavated in coastal soft (marine) clay and measurements obtained during excavating construction. The second is to observe the appropriate selection and the application of support system on earth retaining wall in soft clay. Lateral deformation behavior during the excavating construction according to the differences in a soft ground pressuring degree was investigated. The third is to compare the results with those of numerical analysis. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of lateral deformation when soft ground improvement for the expansion of infrastructure in object of study zone has been incompleted. Also, it is to identify the relationship between the degree of consolidation of soft ground and lateral deformation, in a method of displacement quantity in compliance with the numerical analysis and a quatitative analysis. In conclusion, displacement of excavated section after consolidation was fewer 60% averagely than section under consolidation.
