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.

보통으로 다져진(Dr=50%)실트질 모래의 액상화 후의 비배수정적거동과 이에 대한 압밀응력비의 영향에 관해서 연구하기 위하여 4가지 압밀응력비(σhc'/σVC'=1.0,0.7,0.55,K0)로서 압밀시킨 공시체를 액상화 전후상태에서 비배수 삼축시험을 수행하였다. 연구결과 액상화를 경험하지 않은 실트질 모래의 p'-q좌표상의 상전이선과 파괴선은 모두 구속압밀응력과 압밀응력비의 크기에 관계없이 각각 원점을 지나는 하나의 직선으로 나타난다. 또한 상정이전단저항은 구속응력이 클수록 증가하난 동일한 구속응력하에서는 압밀응력비와는 관계없이 거의 동일한 값을 갖는 경향을 나타낸다.

Suction stress is evaluated from soil water retention curves in order to deduce effective stress in unsaturated soils. $K_0$ consolidated triaxial tests were performed for silty sand to interpret effective stress in consolidation and shearing of unsaturated soils. Suction stresses from both consolidation stress and shear strength in triaxial tests were compared with those from soil water retention curves. The effective stresses on consolidation and shear strength are on each unique line, which are the same as that of the saturated case. It was found that the effective stress from soil water retention curves agrees with those from consolidation and shear strength in triaxial tests.

The undrained creep tests with isotropically and anisotropically overconsolidated clays were performed to investigate the effects of anisotropic consolidation on the undrained creep rupture behavior. Results of tests showed that the undrained creep rupture behaviors were iuluenced significantly by stress history including overconsolidation ratio and consolidation pressure ratio$(\sigma_{3c}/\sigma_{le})$. That is. the creep strength of clay increases with the increase of both overconsolidation ratio and consolidation pressure ratio. It, therefore, is dangerous to decide the possibility of creep rupture of clay by the isotropically consolidated creep rupture test in the case of the coefficient of earth pressure lower than 1.0. And the creep strength of clay could be obtained by the equation of the upper yield strength suggested by Finn and Shead(1973) irrespective of both overconsolidation ratio and consolidation pressure ratio.

For a massive project related to building national industrial complexes on a soft ground applied to PVD after dredging and hydraulic fill, laboratory tests were carried out using undisturbed sample taken from various depth. Piezocone penetration and dissipation tests were carried out to assess horizontal coefficient of consolidation and initial stress in field. The ground consists of upper dredged fill and lower original clay layer having both similar marine clays. It should be, however, considered as multi-layered soft ground having different initial void ratio, initial water content, initial effective stress, and permeability and compressibility with directions. To assess initial stress of those soft layers in which have different stress history related to consolidation, CPTu test results, especially excess pore water pressure, were analyzed. It allows to find out distribution of excess pore water pressure and initial stress inner original clay layer.

The stress~strain characteristics of geosynthetics reinforced clayey soil were investigated by triaxial compression tests. All the tests were peformed either on unreinforced or reinforced soils under fully drained condition after having been consolidated isotropically or anisotropically to the required level of effective stresses by the small increment of 0.05kgf/$cm^2$. The anisotropically consolidated drained tests were performed to simulate the in-situ condition of reinforced soil structures such as reinforced soil wall, abutment and embankment which are generally in the anisotrpic state. From a series of tests it was ffund that the behavior of the anisotropically consolidated reinforced clayey soils was very different from stress~strain characteristics of consolidated reinferced clayey soils. It was found especially that the initial Young's moduli of anisotropically consolidated reinforced clayey soils were higher than those of isotropically consolidated reinforced clayey soils. It was found also that the reinforcement effect in anisotropically consolidated reinforced soils developed at a much lower level of axial strain(0.01%) compared with isotropically consolidated ones(about 1.0~5.0%).

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of rigid end platens on effective stresses in soil mass during consolidation. The friction between the teeth of top cap/base pedestal and the specimen during consolidation decreases the radial and tangential effective stresses in RC specimens. However, it is unpractical to measure the effective stresses in the soil specimen. Two approaches were used to evaluate the state of stress in RC specimens during consolidation. First, careful measurements were made of small strain shear modulus, $G_{max}$ in specimens with carefully controlled void ratios and stress histories, to infer the state of stress. And second, a finite element analysis was performed to analytically evaluate the effect of various soil parameters on the state of stress in RC specimens during consolidation. By combining these experimental and analytical results, an example was performed to predict the average state of stress in RC specimens during consolidation.

After clay particles have been sedimented isotropically, the clay deposits have been consolidated under $K_0$-stress system. Therefore, in order to predict the behavior in-situ of normally consolidated clays, the effect of $K_0$-consolidation should be considered. A series of undrained and drained triaxial compression tests was performed on remolded specimens of clay consolidated under both $K_0$-and isotropic stress systems and the effect of $K_0$-consolidation was investigated. $K_0$-consolidation has much effect on the deviator stress, especially at initial deformation stage of consolidated-undrained tests, but has little effect on the principal effective stress ratio. Thus, the undrained strength behavior of $K_0$-consolidated samples can not be predicted from isotropically consolidated test data. However, the failure envelop, provided by the maximum principal effective stress ratio failure criterion, is unique and curved.

This study deals with the stress-strain-strain rate behaviour of overconsolidated clay. Consolidated-drained stress path tests were performed on the stress-time dependent condition. Stress history consists of rotation angle of stress path, overconsolidation ratio, and magnitude of length of recent stress path. Time history includes loading rate of recent and current stress path. Test results show that all influence factors have an increasing strain rate with time, and the strain rate varies with the change of the rotation angle of stress path. With the increase of overconsolidation ratio and loading rate of current stress path, the strain rate also increases. For the stress history, correlation between stress-strain and strain rate is indicated but the time history is not.

In land reclamation construction using marine clay, a measure of material function, that is, the relation between void ratio-effective stress and permeability, is very important aspect for the prediction of self-weight consolidation behavior. But reclaimed ground has very high water content, so there are many difficulties in the laboratory test for measuring material function. For this reason, some researches are carried out using slurry cconsolidometr to measure material function. In this study, material function was measured using slurry consolidometer, and to overcome the shortcoming of researches using slurry cosolidometer, an equation for the prediction of material function was proposed on the basis of column test's parameter. Material function was determined through low stress consolidation test and permeability test, and it also was calculated with the equation using column test parameter. The continuity of material function could be confirmed through these tests. Material function is easily determined with the equation proposed in this study, and can be used for the prediction of self-weight consolidation behavior.
