In this study, the characteristics of bearing capacity and deformation of intermediate soils are investigated through centrifuge tests. The experimental parameters are footing width, initial stress condition of soils and relative loading rate defined relationship of loading rate and permeability of soils. It is examined that loading rate influences on the bearing capacities and deformations. Based on the test results, some problem of existing specification are introduced in the view of related loading rates and load intensities. Especially it is showed that load intensities magnitude rlre reversed in the same settlement ratio(s/B(%)), due to partial drained effect as well as loading rates in undrained con dition based on the excess pore pressure and deformations measured under loading.

One of the main causes of asphalt rutting is high temperature of the pavement. Nevertheless, there has been few research on lowering the pavement temperature for reducing rutting. This study investigated the performance characteristics of moisture-retaining porous asphalt pavement, which is known to have a temperature reducing effect. The purpose of this study is to quantify the temperature reducing effect of moisture-retaining porous asphalt pavement and its effect of reducing rutting through Accelerated Pavement Testing(APT). Additionally, the possibility of reducing the thickness of the pavement in comparison to general dense grade pavement by analyzing structural layer coefficient of moisture retaining pavement. A total of three test sections consisting of two moisture-retaining porous asphalt pavement sections and one general dense-grade porous asphalt pavement section were constructed for this study. Heating and spraying of water were carried out in a regular cycle. The loading condition was 8.2 ton of wheel load, the tire pressure of $7.03kgf/cm^2$, and the contact area of $610cm^2$. The result of this experiment revealed that the temperature reducing effect of the pavement was about $6.6{\sim}7.9^{\circ}C$(average of $7.4^{\circ}C$) for the middle layer and $7.9{\sim}9.8^{\circ}C$(average of $8.8^{\circ}C$) for surface course, resulting in a rutting reduction of 26% at the pavement surface. Additionally, the structural layer coefficient of moisture retaining pavement measured from a laboratory test was 0.173, about 1.2 times that of general dense grade pavement. The general dense-grade porous asphalt pavement test section exhibited rutting at all layers of surface course, middle layer, and base layer, while the test sections of moisture-retaining porous asphalt pavement manifested rutting mostly at surface course only.

이방압밀이 실트질모래의 정적재하에 의한 유동파괴거동에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위하여 비배수삼축압축시험을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 상대밀도가 약 17%인 공시체를 습윤다짐방법에 의해서 성형하고 4가지의 압밀응력비, 1.0, 0.7, 0.55, $K_{o}$ 로서 압밀시켰다. 시험결과로서 정상상태선은 p-q 공간상에서 압밀응력비에 관계없이 유일한 직선이며 collapse line의 기울기는 압밀응력비가 증가함에 따라 선형적으로 감소한다는 사실을 보여준다. 또한, 유동파괴거동을 보이는 느슨하게 다져진 실트질모래의 잔류강도($S_{us}$ )와 첨두강도($S^{p}$ )와의 관계는 압밀응력비의 크기에 관계없이 $S_{p}$ /$p_{c}$ = $A_{L}$ +$B_{L}$ ($S_{us}$ /$p_{c}$ )로 표현되는 일반식으로 나타낼 수 있으며 계수 $A_{L}$ 및 $B_{L}$은 압밀응력비의 크기에 따라 선형적으로 변하는 경향을 나타낸다.

This study was performed to examine the freezing and thawing properties of the high strength concrete using recycled coarse aggregate. The recycled coarse aggregate was replaced by 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of natural crushed aggregate. The compressive strength of the concrete used recycled coarse aggregate was shown in more than $400kgf/cm^2$ at the curing age 28 days. The weight loss ratio by freezing and thawing was shown in less than 1% at all mix type. The pulse velocity and relative dynamic modulus were decreased with increasing the freezing and thawing cycles. Also, durability factor for the freezing and thawing were decreased with increasing the content of recycled coarse aggregate. But, recycled concrete replaced with recycled coarse aggregate 100% was shown in more than 60 by durability factor in freezing and thawing of 300cycles Accordingly, these recycled coarse aggregate can be used for high strength concrete.

In general typically granular soils contain a certain amount of fines. It is also widely recognized that foundation soils under working loads show highly non-linear behavior from very early stages of loading. In the present study, a series of laboratory tests with sands of different silt contents are conducted and methods to assess strength and stiffiness characteristics are proposed. Modified hyperbolic stress-strain model is used to analyze non-linearity of silty sands in terms of non-linear Degradation parameters f and g as a function of silt contents and Relative density Dr. Stress-strain curves were obtained from a series of triaxial tests on sands containing different amounts of silt. Initial shear modulus, which is used to normalize Degradation modulus of silty sands, was determined from resonant column test results. From the laboratory test results, it was observed that, as the Relative density increases, values of f decrease and those of g increase. In addition, it was found that values of f and g increase and decrease respectively as a Skeleton void ratio $(e_{sk})$ increases.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare flexural strength and elastic modulus of several splinting materials dependent on water absorption. Materials and Methods: Three different materials; LightFix, G-FIX, G-aenial Universal Flo; were used in this study. Thirty rectangular bar specimens ($25{\times}2{\times}2mm$) of each materials were prepared. Fifteen specimens of each materials were stored in 100% relative humidity atmosphere, $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The other specimens were stored in distilled water, $37^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Flexural strength and elastic modulus were calculated using Universal testing machine. One-way ANOVA and Scheffe's post hoc test at 95% level of significance were used on all test results. Results: In LightFix, flexural strength and elastic modulus were significantly decreased after aging. In G-FIX, there was no significant change in flexural strength and elastic modulus after aging. In G-aenial Universal Flo, flexural strength was significantly decreased, but elastic modulus did not change significantly. Statistical analysis reveals that flexural strength and elastic modulus increased in the order of LightFix, G-FIX, G-aenial Flo in both 24 hours and 30 days. Conclusion: It could be deduced from this study that flexural strength and elastic modulus of some resins could be changed when it aged in oral environment. Thus this should be considered when choosing a resin to perform a resin-bonded splint.

최근 지구온난화, 엘리뇨 및 라니냐 등 지구환경 변화에 따른 기후변화의 영향으로 짧은 시간에 매우 높은 강도를 가진 이상호우에 의해 많은 인명과 재산피해가 발생하고 있다. 우리나라의 경우에도 1990년대 후반부터 과거와 달리 국지적 집중호우가 빈번히 발생하고 있으며 집중호우에 의한 홍수는 우리나라의 가장 빈번한 자연재해 중 하나가 되었다. 이러한 성격의 홍수는 소유역 규모의 좁은 지역과 급경사지역에서 짧은 지속시간과 집중적인 강우강도에 의해 발생하고, 빠른 유속과 토사를 동반하는 빠른 수문반응으로 홍수에 대비할 시간이 부족한 것이 특징이기 때문에 기존의 홍수예보모형을 이용하여 발생홍수의 특성을 예측하기에는 많은 어려움이 있다. 유출수문곡선의 특성을 분석하여 홍수의 특성을 분석하는 연구는 Kyiamah (1996)가 유출수문곡선의 기초적인 상승곡선, 지체시간, 첨두홍수량을 이용하여 돌발홍수사상에 대한 크기를 산정하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 Bhaskar 등 (2000)은 유출수문곡선의 상승부 기울기, 첨두 홍수량비, 홍수 반응시간을 이용하여 돌발홍수지수(Flash Flood Index)를 산정하고 이 지수에 의해 돌발홍수를 설명하고자 하였다. 국내에서는 정재철 (2000)이 보청천을 대상으로 단 몇 개의 사상만을 대상으로 Bhaskar 등 (2000)이 제시한 돌발홍수지수를 적용한 바가 있다. 그러나, 이들 연구에서는 소수의 수문사상만을 이용하였기 때문에 상대심도를 산정하는데 있어 문제가 있으며 상대심도를 산정하는데 있어 각 심도계수들의 임의적인 도수분포를 이용하였기 때문에 매우 주관적이라고 할 수 있다. 김병식 등 (2008)은 한강유역의 과거 101개의 홍수사상에 대해 돌발홍수의 상대심도를 파악하기 위하여 돌발홍수지수를 산정하고 2006년 7월의 집중호우에 의해 발행한 홍수사상의 돌발홍수 심도를 시간 및 공간적으로 정량화하였다. 이러한 기존의 연구는 홍수심도 산정시에 필요한 유출수문곡선을 실측된 자료를 이용하여 산정하였으나 국내의 소유역의 경우 실측된 유출수문곡선 자료가 그다지 많지 않은 관계로 인해 홍수심도를 산정하는데 많은 어려움을 내포하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 미계측 소유역중 시범유역을 선정하고 30년 이상 장기간 실측 강우의 기왕최대 시강우량 자료에 대하여 강우-유출모형을 통한 홍수유출수문곡선을 모의한 후, 빈도별 확률강우량에 대한 수문곡선 특성인자들의 비를 무차원 지수화하여 극한홍수사상에 대한 설계강우의 취약성을 평가하기 위한 홍수위험지수 (Flood Hazard Index) 산정방법을 제시하였다.

We perform a series of experimental tests to evaluate whether the shear strength of clean sands can be reliably predicted from shear wave velocity. Isotropic drained triaxial tests on clean sands reconstituted at different relative densities are performed to measure the shear strength and bender elements are used to measure the shear wave velocity. Laboratory tests reveal that a correlation between shear wave velocity, void ratio, and confining pressure can be made. The correlation can be used to determine the void ratio from measured shear wave velocity, from which the shear strength is predicted. We also show that a unique relationship exists between maximum shear modulus and effective axial stress at failure. The accuracy of the equation can be enhanced by including the normalized confining pressure in the equation. Comparisons between measured and predicted effective friction angle demonstrate that the proposed equation can accurately predict the internal friction angle of granular soils, accounting for the effect of the relative density, from shear wave velocity.

In this paper an experimental program was launched to determine the mechanical and durability properties of spall repair materials (RCC: 3 items, PCC: 2 items, PC: 3 items). Test items were mechanical property tests such as setting times, strengths, modulus of elasticity, plastic shrinkage, and durability tests such as dynamic modulus ratio, bond property with freeze-thaw, water absorption, chemical resistance, ultraviolet exposure. Modulus of the PC products exhibits ductile while the modulus is in the order of RCC > PCC > PC. At early ages the PC products experience higher plastic shrinkage than others, henceforth stable at 28 days. Other test results such as dynamic modulus ratio, absorption, and chemical resistance show that the PCs are superior to the PCCs and the RCCs. Except for PC-2, all patch materials had bond strength more than 1.3MPa after freeze-thaw cycles of 200~300 while the PCs and the PCCs seem to be better than the RCCs. With 500 hours of ultraviolet exposure, all patch materials showed to have no crack or deterioration at the surface.

The properties of recycled fine aggregates which had different source concrete were examined by mortar test. With higher strength of source concrete, specific gravity of recycled fine aggregate was higher and absorption of recycled fine aggregate was lower due to reduction of the volume of adhered cement paste. The compressive strength and flexible strength of mortar with recycled fine aggregate were affected by the interface boundary of new mortar and the strength of adhered mortar. Strength development of mortar with recycled fine aggregate reduced because recycled fine aggregate become a porous material with the smaller strength of source concrete. The drying shrinkage of mortar was about$800{\sim}2000{\mu}m/m$. It was about 1.5 times than that of mortar with natural fine aggregate. Relative dynamic modulus of elasticity was a similar level with that of mortar with natural fine aggregate.
