This study presents the behavior characteristics of buried three-layered pipeline subjected to pile driving loads corresponding to its cover depth. The analysis considered the driving energy caused by 7 tonf of ram weight and 1.2m of stroke with 20m distance from buried pipeline for all the analysis cases. A cover depth of pipe is varied 0.6m to 3.8m for this research. Vibration Velocity and stress are investigated at the center section in longitudinal direction. With same distance from pile, attenuation ratio of vibration velocity for increment of cover depth has shown an increasing trend. Also, Stress attenuation ratio of inner pipe is increased with cover depth.

The safety and structural integrity of buried pipes are usually at risk from constructing loading and compaction of backfill materials. The backfill material should be strong enough to help resistance and redistribute loads so that the buried pipe remains unaffected. Due to the many problems associated with buried pipes, there have been multiple studies on the development of a sustainable backfill material. In this study, a Controlled Low Strength Material made of coal ash was considered as a buried pipe backfill material. To determine the feasibility and performance of this backfill material, a numerical simulation was conducted with the results confirmed by a field test. Results showed maximum settlement to be 2 mm with the elastic strain of the buried pipe to be about 0.006.

Larbi (1995) and Jeong et al. (2005) analyzed the various boundary end conditions of buried pipelines using the mode superposition method as one of the dynamic analysis methods of buried pipelines. However, it is very complicated to derive calculation equations for the solutions to be obtained by this method, and even the derived calculation equations need separate computer programming for the numerical analysis in order to obtain the solutions. For this reason, this method is extremely difficult for engineers to apply in their field works. In consideration of the shortcoming of the mode superposition method, this study's purpose is to propose a 3D dynamic finite difference method, which is more easily applicable in the field. For this purpose, we tested the accuracy of the 3D dynamic analysis and compared the results with those of the mode superposition method and certified that the 3D dynamic analysis could be an alternative method to obtain the seismic responses of the pipelines.

In subway or road construction, the vibration caused by various construction equipments influences gas pipelines directly or indirectly Especially buried gas pipelines are influenced by the blast occurred near the pipeline buried Place. To analyze vibration response of buried gas pipeline caused by blasting works, the nonlinear behavior of ground is realized by applying equivalent linear analysis. According to the results of this analysis, the acceleration response values of gas pipeline are close to the measured values and the occurring time of peak values are agreed to the measured values. Thus, It is concluded that conventional seismic analysis mechanism can be applied to the dynamic analysis of buried gas pipeline.

In Korea, the pipe type that has been well used as sewage pipe from the past is primarily a rigid pipe which is represented by concrete hume pipe, but the use of it is being decreased sharply because of the problems such as tube erosion and incomplete watertightness securing through the time. On the other hand, the use of flexible pipe has been increased because its construction ability is excellent on account of its light weight as well as it is resistant to corrosion. However, because there are lacks of market's confidence in flexible pipe and occurrence cases of partial damage incomplete caused by compaction control, cause analysis and management for them are needed. Therefore, this study tried to estimate the deformation characteristics of pipe caused by each condition through numerical analysis changing construction sequence, rigidity of pipe, strength of ground concrete under the pipe, relative compaction ratio of sand foundation under the pipe and relative compaction ratio of backfill material above the pipe. Evaluation result is that influence on each factor is confirmed and the quality control of sand around the pipe are turned up to be important.

매설배관은 도로 혹은 철길올 횡단하는 경우와 같이 굴착에 의한 시공이 불가능한 경우에 압업관을 사용하여 시공하며 이러한 압업관은 배관이 토양의 하중으로부터 안 전하게 유지되도록 하는 기능도 한다. 압엽관은 배관과 접촉이 되지 않도록 절연체 를 배관과의 사이에 삽업올 하도록 규정되어 있는데 여러 가지 이유로 배관과 접촉이 되기도 한디 배관과 압업관이 전기적으로 접촉되면 배관을 방식하기 위한 방식전류 를 압입관에 빼앗기게 되고 압업관 내부의 배관은 비방식 상태에 놓이게 되어 부석이 일어날 가능성이 높다. 본 연구는 실제 매설배관 현장에서 배관과 압입관의 접촉여부 에 대하여 조사한 방법 및 결과에 대한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 압업관의 접촉여부를 확인하기 위하여 다음과 같은 방법을 사용하 였다. 첫째. 배관과 압입관의 방식선위를 단순하게 측정하는 것이다. 배관과 압업관 의 전위가 같은가 다른가를 측정하는 방법이다. 둘째, 배관의 방식전류를 on, off하면서 배관과 압입판의 전위거동을 살펴보는 것이다. 셋째, 배관과 압업관을 언위적으로 접촉시켜 흐르는 전류량을 확인함으로써 접촉여부를 확인할 수 있었다. 넷째 배관을 따라 흐르는 방삭전류량을 측정하였다. 이상과 같은 방법을 사용하여 배판과 접촉된 압압관을 확인할 수 있었다. 접촉된 압입관에서 접촉지점을 확인하기 위하여 배관과 압입관 사이에 전류를 인가하고 압입 관의 양단의 배판 사이의 전위 변화를 측정하여 그 전위변화값과 인가한 전류값을 통 하여 계산된 저항올 배관의 길이로 환산하여 대략적인 접촉지점을 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently, improvement of materials and technologies for the manufacturing of gas pipe has it possible to reduce the buried depth. Compared to the criteria from advanced countries, Korea has conservative criteria for the buried depth of pipeline(about 50cm deeper). Therefore, this study investigated the effect of various buried depth(0.8m, 1.0m, 1.2m) on the stress and strain distribution of gas pipe. Numerical analysis and field tests were carried out with API 5L steel gas pipes. From the results, it can be suggested that the change of buried depth would not significantly affect the stress and strain distribution of gas pipe.

This paper reports the application study of the ground reinforcement under a buried conduit subjected to differential settlement via a finite element modeling. The soil-reinforcement inter- action helps to minimize the differential settlement between the adjoining conduit segments. Three different field conditions have been considered. The settlement pattern and deformation slope have been evaluated for each boundary condition. The analysis results are compared for both non-reinforced and reinforced case to measure the effectiveness of the soil reinforcement for restraining deformation of the conduit.
