In general, it has been usually used the method that assess rock slope stability using stereographic projection method, limit equilibrium analysis, numerical analysis and slope stability evaluation table. Several methods for assessing the stability of rock slopes has been proposed on the basis of site investigation data. These method adopted different evaluation items and weighting factors by researchers, organization and nation. But the researches for each evaluation items were insufficient. So the effectiveness of rock slope stability evaluation items for geometrical configuration (slope height, slope direction and angle, dip and dip direction of major discontinuity, absolute value for the direction difference for slope and major discontinuities) and topographical characteristic (possibility of topographical water concentration, upper natural slope angle, slope configuration) using 315 failure and stable highway rock slope analysis data, AV (abnormal value) analysis and NMAV (normalized maximum abnormal value) analysis were evaluated.

Two numerical methods such as DEM and FDM were adopted to analysis of rock slope stability, of which dimensions are about 150 m(length), 58 m(height), 70°dip, in Halla limestone mine. For this rock slope stability analysis, strength reduction method was used to calculate the safety factor of slope through numerical method. To keep the rock slope safely, it is proposed to reduce the height of the rock slope from 58 m to 45 m and to reduce the angle of the slope from 70°to 55°, too.

The strength of sliding plane is usually assigned on the whole sliding plane with same value in 2D limit equilibrium slope stability method. However, the potential sliding plane is divided into two or three parts which have different sliding resistances. According to the calculation results of 3D slope stability analyses using 4 types of slope cutting models, marginal sliding resistance could affect the safety of slope significantly. In this calculation two kinds of the sliding plane strengths were applied differently to the parts of bottom and margin of the model slope. The effect of marginal resistance was calculated quantitatively. In case of lower sliding resistance of the bottom, the safety factor becomes low in a margin cutting model. However, in case of higher sliding resistance of the bottom, the safety factor decreased slightly in a lower part cutting model and increased in a upper margin cutting model.

The slopes of open-pit mine are typically designed without considering the reinforcement and support method due to the economical efficiency. However, the long-term stability of final pit slope is needed in some case, therefore the appropriate measures that can improve the stability are required. In this study, the field survey and laboratory test were carried out in S limestone mine. The stability assessment of final pit slope was performed through the stereographic projection method, SMR, and numerical analysis. And countermeasures for stabilization were proposed. The results of analysis show that full scale of slope failure is not expected but the failures of bench slope scale are likely to occur. In oder to increase the stability of bench slope, we suggested the remedial methods as follows: excavating the final pit slope by pre-splitting blasting, placing the wide berm in the intermediate bench slope and installing the horizontal drainage hole in the place of local ground water runoff.

Limit equilibrium method is widely used for the stability analysis of soil slopes. In jointed rock slopes however, the failure of the slope is largely dependent upon the strength and deformability of the joints in the rock mass and quite often failure occurs along the joints. This paper describes the use of ubiquitous joint model for the stability analysis of the jointed rock slopes. This model is essentially an anisotropic elasto-plastic model and can simulate two sets of joint in arbitrary orientations. Validation of the developed with the factor of safety equal to unity was selected when the shape of the failure plane is assumed log spiral. Then the factor of safety of the rock slope having two perpendicular joint sets was calculated while rotating joint orientations. Rusults were compared with limit equilibrium solutions on soil slopes having equivalent soil properties when plane sliding was assumed. Developed model predicted the factor of safety of jointed rock slope in a reasonable accuracy when joint spacing is sufficiently small.

충북단양군 영춘면 휴석동 지역에 위치한 위험사면은 1972년 456mm의 집중강우에 의해 사면붕괴가 발생하여 가옥 2채붕괴 등의 피해를 유발시켰으며, 지속적인 지반침하가 진행되고 있다. 남한강 하류에 접하고 있는 상기의 위험사면은 산사태에 의한 토사의 이동시 남한강을 덮치게 되어 그 유로의 변화를 일으켜 영춘면의 지역의 침수피해의 대규모의 재해를 일으킬 수 있는 위험성이 내재되어 있다. 본 연구는 상기 위험사면에 대한 지반조사, 지하수 특성 조사 등을 통해 붕적토 사면의 안정해석을 수행하여 최적의 조강 대책안을 제시하고 이에 따른 재해 예방을 도모하고자 한다. 보강대책을 붕적토 사면의 거동특성과 위험사면의 지형적 특성 등을 고려하여 집수정, 수평배수공, 앵커공 및 보강토 옹벽의 복합공법에 의해 위험사면의 안정성을 확보하는 방안을 제안하였다.

The study of seepage behavior is very important to slope stability of road landfill for heavy rainfall season. This study is done to propose more stable of road landfill based on analysis of seepage behavior and slope stability for some cases of road landfill. The selected sections of collapsed road landfill are most general case of road landfill, a case is landfill on the ground area and another case is on the slope area. The results of this study is summarized as follows. It is founded that the road landfill on the ground area is increased saturation region due to rainfall infiltration, and the seepage behavior of road landfill is solved by theory of unsaturated flow. The road landfill is more unstable due to rainfall infiltration at the slope surface, especially during heavy rainfall. The case of road landfill on the slope area is analyzed in consideration of slope surface infiltration, and it is founded that the slope instability is increased because of rainfall infiltration. The drain layer located on the original ground which made by more permeable materials could be good action of slope stability in the case of road landfill on the slope area.

본 연구의 목적은 교대가 설치된 지반의 사면안전율과 교대측방변위의 관계를 분석하여 교대의 측방이동 판정기준을 마련하고자 함에 있다. 이를 위하여 국내의 연약지반에 설치된 30개 교대의 측방이동사례를 조사하고, SLOPILE (Ver 2.0)프로그램을 이용하여 교대의 측방변위와 교대기초말뚝의 사면안정효과를 고려한 사면안정해석을 실시한다. 해석결과 교대기초말뚝의 실측측방변위를 고려할 경우 1.8이상 되어야 한다. 또한, 교대기초말뚝의 허용측방변위량에 따른 사면안정 해석결과, 교대의 허용측방변위가 작게 규정될수록 사면안정성에 기여하는 말뚝의 효과는 감소하고 있음을 알 수 있다.

사면안정해석을 위해 다공체(porous medium) 이론이 제시되었다. 다공체 이론은 간극수압, 토질입자 및 간극수의 상호작용을 포함하는 여러 가지 지반관련 문제의 이해에 있어 매우 중요하다. 이러한 상호작용은 토질강도 및 변형에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 압밀 예제로서 이러한 모델의 정확도를 첫째로 검증하였다. 사면안정해석에 있어서 토질의 응력 및 강도는 일반적인 구성모델을 포함한 비선형 유한요소해석을 사용하여 정확히 계산되었다. 사면안정해석은 한계상태를 표시하는 파괴면이 나타날 때까지 점차적인 중력의 증가로 실행되었다. 안전율은 증가시킨 중력과 실제사면 중력의 비로서 계산되었다. 제시된 사면 안정 해석 방법의 자세한 사항은 예제를 통하여 설명되었다.

중국 Three Gorges Project의 대수로사면 안정성은 설계와 시공측면에 있어 주요 관심사가 되었다. 사면 굴착으로 인한 제하과정에서 암반은 역학적으로 불안정한 상태에 놓인다. 본 논문은 FEM(2D-3D)를 이용하여 단층 암반 굴착으로 인한 암반사면의 안정성을 평가하였다. 해석결과 굴착 후 수로사면의 양측 수직벽과 분리울타리의 중간 상부에서 인장응력과 전단손상영역이 주로 발생하였다. 해석결과를 토대로 대규모 사면활동에 대한 안정성을 확인하였으나 시공단계에서 국부적 사면활동을 방지하기 위한 록볼트와 록앵커 등의 보강이 필요한 것으로 검토되었다.
