본 연구는 2006년 7월 집중호우에 의해 많은 인적.물적 피해가 발생한 강원도 지역의 피해 현장을 조사하였으며, 그 중 성토사면붕괴를 붕괴유형별로 구분하고 발생원인과 특성을 분석하여 그에 따른 적절한 대책방안을 제시하였다. 집중호우에 의한 성토사면의 붕괴유형 중 토석류에 의한 도로횡단 배수구조물의 기능상실로 유수가 노면으로 침출되고 수압이 발생하여 도로가 유실된 유형과 하천선형 불량으로 만곡수충부(물이 직접 부딪히는 부분)에서 유속이 빨라져 세굴에 의한 붕괴가 전체성토붕괴사면의 83%를 차지하였다. 이에 대한 대책방안으로는 토석류를 계곡상부에서 부터 예방할 수 있는 방법으로 사방댐 및 그물망 공법 등이 좋은 대책방안이 될 수 있으며, 토석류에 의한 유송잡물을 모두 통과할 수 있도록 충분히 큰 배수시설을 설치하는 방법도 좋은 대책방안이 될 수 있다. 무엇보다 열대성 국지 폭우를 이제 일상의 한반도 기후현상으로 받아들여 주먹구구식의 일회성 대책방안을 지양하고 바뀐 강우특성과 빈도를 고려하여 계획 홍수위를 재산정하고 그에 따라 하천정비계획을 재검토해야 할 것이다.

Soft foundation is extensively distributed in coastal areas including our local regions. Embankment load on such soft foundation causes displacement due to lack of base ground supports. Long-term consolidation can result in settlement and destruction of shear failure and structure. Therefore, a variety of vertical drain methods are applied to construction sites to prevent base from breaking and changing for secure construction. This study analyzed the patterns of changes displacement to determine efficient range of improvement since range of vertical drain material determines vertical and horizontal changes based on the width range of under ground improvement. Changes of intensity with distance from embankment edge were also analyzed in the field study of embankment slope.

The treatment of acid rock drainage was reviewed and evaluated for the case of pyrite rocks distributed in a highway embankment. During the highway's construction, neutralization using alkaline water repellent was applied to the embankment section to prevent acid rock drainage. However, it still occurred long after the construction was completed owing to rain infiltration, and the acid rock drainage polluted the surrounding soils and streams. To solve this problem, treatment facilities such as SAPS (Successive Alkalinity Producing Systems) or ecological wetlands and sand filtration were installed. After the installation of the treatment facilities, the effluent and soils contaminated by acid rock drainage nearby the outlet of the facilities were analyzed and evaluated for a period of years. Measurements of the pH of the effluent and analysis of the heavy metal contamination of the soils confirmed that the neutralization treatment for acid rock drainage is being performed properly and that contamination of heavy metals in the acid rock drainage is also being stably controlled by the treatment facilities.

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the thermo-hydromechanical response of weathered granite soil. The effect of forced change temperature and relative humidity at the soil layer boundaries were monitored during heating. A series of load settlement test were performed on layers of compacted, unsatureated weathered granite soil with geosynthetic embedded at mid height before and after application of heat exchanger to the base of the soil layers. The results from this study indicated the potential for using embedded heat exchangers for the mechanical improvement of geotechnical systems incorporating weathered granite soil.

The vertical drain method recently being used in Korea is divided into the sand drain method, the pack drain method, the paper drain method, and the PBD method according to the drainage. However, these methods generate the disturbed zone called the smear zone when the drainage is penetrated into the in-situ ground. The characteristics of the smear zone generated cause the problems that the coefficient of permeability decreases and the consolidation time becomes longer than expected in the design. Although the size of the smear zone is a very important factor directly influencing the degree of consolidation, in the existing studies, the general value for the size of the smear zone proposed has been used in the design. However, the size of the smear zone proposed by the existing studies cause a loss of economical efficiency because of the inaccuracy of the design. Hence, in this study, the characteristics on the size of the smear zone were analyzed by carrying out the three dimensional numerical analysis and the method to determine the conversion size of the smear zone considering the change of the coefficient of permeability was proposed in order to consider the change of the coefficient of permeability in the actual design.

In order to accelerate the rate of consolidation settlement and gain a required shear strength for a given soft clay deposit, vertical drain method combined with a preloading technique has been widely applied. In this paper, a theory of axisymmetric nonlinear consolidation fer drainage-installed deposit, which considers secondary compression (or creep) during primary consolidation, as well as the variations of compressibility and permeability during the consolidation process, has been developed. A computer program named AXICON based on Hypothesis B fur the analysis of axisymmetric nonlinear consolidation was developed by adopting finite difference method. The results of AS(ICON were compared with Hansbo's solution based on Hypothesis A, as well as in-situ settlements and pore pressures measured in test embankment of Ska-Edeby. The results indicated that Hypothesis A usually underestimated the in-situ settlement and Hypothesis B was considered to be logically correct. It was also shown that one may able to appropriately predict the real in-situ behaviors using the proposed program.

In this paper, reliability analysis was done on the characteristics of consolidation and settlement for the inner temporary dike where a weak ground improvement construction was applied. When the consolidation analysis on the foundation ground was done, the following conclusions were obtained by conducting the stability analysis on the effect of space of drains, the effect of consolidation time, and the residual settlement and differential settlement. When construction was done with a drain space which satisfied 95% probability of reaching a target consolidation in each divided area, the occurrence of a residual settlement was within the range, which did not exceed 10cm. It was shown that there was almost no possibility of the occurrence of differential settlement, which was above the permissible differential settlement slope.

Steel slag has the nature to hydrate and expand when in contact with non-reacting CaO and water, and thus can be used only in limited scope for landfill disposal as well as for recycling as civil construction aggregates. In order to use such steel slags more efficiently, the applicability of steel slag as sand mat alternative material was reviewed. In general, sand mat is used in soft ground surface reinforcement method and horizontal drain method, and is installed simultaneously with soft ground vertical drain method. Therefore in this study steel slag designing method and application standard etc were examined to recycle steel slag as sand mat alternative material, and laboratory soil test and model test were done. Test results indicated that the designing method and application standard meet various environment and quality standards, meaning that steel slag can be utilized as sand mat alternative material, and analysis of slag mat bearing capacity also indicated that use of steel slag produces double or more bearing capacity compared with existing sand mat.
