현재 국내외에서 해안가에 수심이 낮은 지역을 중심으로 대규모 매립공사를 수행하여 주택단지, 항만시설, 공업단지 및 공항부지 등으로 사용하고 있다. 매립재를 양질의 모래로 사용하는 경우 매립방법에 따라 매립토의 조밀정도는 다르나 어떠한 경우든 상당히 느슨하거나 중간정도 느슨한 상태로 존재한다. 이런한 느슨한 사질토는 지진 시 액상화 현상에 민감하고, 낮은 지지력 및 큰 즉시침하를 야기시킨다. 따라서 매립된 느슨한 사질토는 향후 시설될 구조물의 중요도에 따라 개량할 필요가 있다. 본 현장의 준설 매립된 사질토의 지반 개량에 적용된 동다짐의 시험시공중 pounder에 accelerometer를 설치하고 적외선 beam을 이용, 충격시의 pounder의 deccleration과 impact velocity를 측정하였다. 여기에서는 이들 실측치를 근거로 중량물체(pounder)의 동적 거동 및 충격시 과잉간극수압 변화를 살펴보았다.

Numerical analyses were performed to analyze the behavior of a suction pile under lateral loads with different soil layer conditions (uniform clay layer, uniform sand layer, and multi layers consisting of clay and sand layers) and different loading locations (top, middle, and bottom of the suction pile). The results of the analyses revealed that, regardless of the soil layer conditions, the lateral resistances at the loading location of the middle of the suction pile were the maximum. For the given loading locations, the lateral resistances of the suction pile for the uniform sand layer were relatively higher than those for the multi layer. By analyzing translations and rotations of the suction pile, it was identified that the amount of translation was highly dependent on both the soil layer condition and the lateral loading location while the rotated angle varied significantly with the lateral loading location, but not much with soil layer condition.

Stress is an invisible physical quantity, necessitating the use of earth pressure cells for its measurement within theground. Traditional strain-gauge type earth pressure cells, due to their rigidity, can distribute stress within the ground and subsequently affect the accuracy of earth pressure measurements. In contrast, force sensing resistors are thin and flexible, enabling the minimization of stress disturbance when measuring stress within the ground. This study developed a system that utilizes force sensing resistors to measure ground stress. It involved constructing a soil chamber for calibrating the force sensing resistors, assessing the variability of measurements from resistors embedded in sand ground, and verifying the attachment of pucks to the sensing area of the resistors.

본 연구는 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ 공구 공유수면 매립공사 수행 중에 매립토량의 부족이 발생함에 따라 이를 대상으로 원인을 분석하고자 수행하였다. 매립지의 토량부족 원인을 파악하기 위해 설계 및 계측자료를 수집하여 시공 현황을 파악하고 지반조사를 통해 해안지역과 매립지반의 시료를 채취하여 성상분석과 원지반에 대한 공학적 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 특히. 현장 시추조사에 의한 경계면 분석과 토질 종류를 점성토, 사질토, 부유토로 구분하고 침하량 공식에 따라 발생량을 산출하였다. 구역의 구분은 설계 시와 동일한 조건에서 침하량을 계산하였고 설계 시 지반고가 침식과 퇴적으로 인해 일부 변경되어 설계시 지반고와 착공시 지반고를 구분하여 기재하고 각각의 침하량을 비교하였다.

Owing to economically efficient and easy installation, bucket foundation is a promising solution for offshore wind turbines. This paper aims at finding the behavior of suction caissons and soil surrounding the foundation by using three-dimensional finite element analysis. Under various loading conditions, a wide range of foundation geometries installed in dense and medium dense sandy soil was considered to evaluate ultimate horizontal load and overturning moment capacity. The results show that the rotation and displacement of the bucket due to monotonic loading are largely dependent on the foundation geometry, soil density and load eccentricity. Normalized diagrams and equations for the ultimate horizontal load and overturning moment capacities are presented that are useful tool for the preliminary design of such foundation type.

In this study, dynamic deformation characteristics of sands under dry, saturated drained and undrained conditions were investigated at small to intermediate strains using the modified Stokoe-type torsional shear tests. The equipment was modified to saturate the specimen and to maintain the B-value above 0.99 during the test. On two types of sands, Geumgang sand from Korea and Toyoura sand from Japan, tests were carried out at various drainage conditions, void ratios, and effective confining pressures. Based on the test results, dynamic deformation characteristics, shear modulus (G) and damping ratio (D), and/or pore-water pressure were measured with strain amplitude and number of loading cycles. Variations of G and D at small ($\gamma_c<{10}^{-3}\%$) to medium (${10}^{-3}\%<\gamma_c<{10}^{-1}\%$) strains were measured under various drainage conditions, and test results were intensively compared considering drainage conditions.

This paper investigates P-S (load-settlement) relationship for the end-bearing Pile in granular material using the CRISP FE Program with the laboratory 2D model pile load test. In order to simulate the effect of end-bearing pile problem in the FEA, the author adopts several forms of slip element around the pile length and the pile tip. Through this study it was found that e degree of non-associated Plastic flow rule incoporated into the Mohr-Coulomb model for the end-bearing pile with the slip elements was a dominant factor in terms of numerical solution convergence. In contrast, the roller boundary used along the pile shaft showed a smooth convergence with respect to the degree of non-associated plastic flow rule.

Most natural deposits of sandy soil possess some degree of cementation resulting from the deposition and precipitation of cementing agents. The presence of cementation can have a significant influence on the stiffness and volume change behavior, and the strength of soils. An important feature of deposits of cemented sandy soils is their ability to remain stable in surprisingly high and almost vertical man-made cuts as well as natural slopes. Numerous field observations and studies of failures in slopes of cemented soils have reported that application of conventional analysis techniques of slope stability is inadequate. That is not only due to the fact that the failure surface of the slope is not circular, but also the fact that the average shear stress along the failure surface is much smaller than the shear strength measured in laboratory shear experiments. This observation alerts us to the fact that a mechanism different from conventional Mohr-Coulomb shear failure takes place, which may be related to fracture processes, which in turn are governed by fracture mechanics concepts and theory. In this study, steep slopes in cemented sand were assessed using fracture mechanics concepts. The results showed that FEM coupled with fracture mechanics concepts provides an excellent alternative in the design and safety assessment of earth structures in cemented soils.

In this study, the analysis of load transition of PHC pile was performed with the static load test, which was driven in deep soft clay layer of MyungJi site in the western area of Pusan. The results of test showed that the range of unit side resistance of pile in sand layer were $7.4t/m^2$ to $23.3t/m^2$ and $6.4t/m^2$ in the soft clay layer, while the unit base resistance was $955t/m^2$ in dense silty sand layer. To select the most reasonable static bearing capacity formular, the field measured values are compared with the calculated ones from the suggested various formular. In the case of side resistance in sand layer, the suggest formular in the Structural Foundation Design Manual by KGS was most reasonable, while in clay layer Railroad Design Manual.
