The purposes of this study are to investigate the mechanical prospeities of the inter mediate soils through consolidation tests and triaxial compression shear tests. The intermediate soils used in this study are artificial soils which are composed of sea clay, sand and it's crushed component. The relationship between plastic index and mechanical prosperties (permeability and compressibility) is investigated through series of consoli dation tests. Strain hardening phenomenon under shearing is explored based on several overconsideration ratios and strain rates in undrained shear tests. To make a comparative study difference of drain condition and strain rate, drain shear tests are performed with overconsolidation ratio.

Bergado에 의해 비교 분석된 많은 연구자들의 배수재의 소요통수능에 대한 제안값을 보면 0.32~50cc/s로 그 차이가 너무 크기 때문에 실무에 적용하기가 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 배수재의 통수능변화를 고려할 수 있는 압밀해석방법을 개발하고, 흙의 압밀계수, 압축지수, 배수재 타설심도 및 타설후 시간경과에 따른 배수재의 통수능 감소 등의 현장여건을 고려한 압밀해석을 통하여 압밀지연을 일으키지 않는 배수재의 소요통수능에 대한 기준을 제시하였다. 압밀해석결과 어느값 이상의 통수능에서는 압밀지연이 없으므로 이 값 이상의 통수능을 갖는 배수재를 선택하는 것이 중요하며, 압밀지연시간 5% 이내인 배수재의 소요통수능은 압밀계수($c_{v}$ ), 배수재의 길이(L) 및 압축지수($C_{c}$)와 비례관계로서 안전율 1.5를 고려하여 $q_{wa}$ =8$\times$($c_{v}$ $\times$L$\times$$C_{c}$)(cc/s) 이상이면 되는 상관식을 얻었다. 이 값 이상의 배수재를 선택하는 경우는 연직배수공법의 압밀해석에서 배수재의 통수능을 고려하지 않아도 된다는 결론을 얻었다.

The single regression method was used to analyze the correlationship between the compression index with mechanical properties for reclaimed marine clays in the southern coast of Korea. As results of performing regression analysis for 200 samples about reclaimed marine clays in the southern coast of Korea, linear regression lines between compression index and natural water content, void ratio in situ, and liquid limit respectively wer obtained. The changed properties of soil due to disturbance during dredging and reclaiming could be investigated by comparing with the existing empirical correlation equations for the original ground where dredging was performed. These regression equations might be rationally used in the preliminary evaluation of settlement of dredged and reclaimed marine clayey ground in the southern coast of Korea.

The physical and mechanical properties of the sedimentary rocks deposited in Taegu and Kyongbuk region have been measured in the laboratory and at the field. Four kinds of rocks such as the shale, the mudstone, the siltstone and the sandstone were the object of this study. In sedimentary rock joint, bedding made it impossible to extract cores for uniaxial compressive test. Some correlations between the uniaxial compressive strength and the other characteristic values such as Point load index, Schmidt hammer rebound, Brazilian strength, P-wave velocity and Absorption ratio are made. The chemical and mineral compositions are also investigated by the XRF and XRD analysis. In addition, the weathering grade of rocks are classified by the quantitative indices of Point load index, Schmidt hammer rebound and Absorption ratio.

In this paper, effects of the acidification of ground and the chemical additive materials-ferric oxide, calcium chloride and calcium sulphate on the compressibility characteristics of the marine clay treated with quick lime were investigated. The rapid inflection point method was carried out. Results showed that the compression index of the untreated marine clay increased as the pH of pore water decreased. Also, the preconsolidation pressure, the coefficient of consolidation and the coefficient of permeability of the untreated marine clay decreased with pH of pore water. In the case of the marine clay treated with the quick lime-calcium chloride, the compression index decreased and the coefficient of consolidation and the coefficient of permeability increased. Specially, the preconsolidation pressure of sample treated with the quick lime-ferric oxide was higher than that of another samples.

Marine clays are widely distributed in Korean eastern, western and southern coastal areas. Understanding engineering characteristics of the soft ground is very important, whenever civil structures are constructed in those coastal areas. It is because the ground is composed of highly compressible marine clay. In this paper, the physical and compression characteristics of Incheon, Mokpo, Gwangyang and Busan marine clay were analyzed and the characteristics between western and southern coastal marine clays were compared. For this, test results of 1,471 samples from 114 sites were used. As a result, Incheon clay showed the lowest plasticity and the highest unit weight due to influx of silt from the Yellow River and the turn of the tide of Incheon area. However, Gwangyang clay showed highly compressible characteristic due to extensive reclamation. On the other hand, Mokpo and Busan clay showed partially similar levels of characteristics. The compression index of Mokpo and Busan clay was high more than twice in comparison with Incheon clay and that of Gwangyang clay was higher than seventy percents in comparison with Mokpo and Busan clay.

Tuff specimens were thermally treated with predetermined temperatures of 200, 400 and $600^{\circ}C$ to construct specimens simulating weathered tuff rocks. Specific gravity, absorption ratio, elastic wave velocity, uniaxial compressive strength, Brazilian tensile strength, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and slake-durability index were measured for pre-heated specimens. Heating of rock specimens entailed the degradation of material properties except for slake-durability index. It was found that correlations among P-wave velocity, uniaxial compressive strength, Brazilian tensile strength, Young's modulus and absorption ratio are high. Regression equations which use the P-wave velocity as an independent variable were presented to evaluate uniaxial compressive strength, Brazilian tensile strength, Young's modulus and absorption ratio.

Traffic volume increases according to highway expansion and industrial development which causes repetitive defect and durability degradation on pavement. The research of quality assurance system used abroad has introduced Korea. Korea Expressway Corporation (KEC) has developed a Quality Performance Index (QPI) that quantitatively assesses the level of quality of the final product, and practical applications. Assessment factor on concrete pavement consisted of pavement thickness, compressive strength, IRI and spacing factor. Assessment factor on concrete pavement is determined by empirical evaluation factor from abroad. In this study, analysis of evaluation factors of concrete pavement by using pavement life prediction simulation and measured data were evaluated with consideration of feasibility of the assessment factor. Pavement life, performance and durability are affected by pavement thickness, compressive strength, IRI and spacing factor in assessment factor on concrete pavement, QPI.

Soil investigation data at 7 different locations around Honam costal region were analyzed and experimental correlations between soil properties and parameters of soft clay were presented. Most soils were classified as CL and CH by the Unified Soil Classification System and were unstable structurally because the water contents were generally greater than the liquid limits. The compression index has good correlations with water content, liquid limit and initial void ratio. The trend of these correlations were similar to the Skempton equation Cc = 0.009(LL -10) and other studies for Korean soft clays but the constants were small different. The slope of these correlations for Honam costal region were slightly greater than those for Kyunggi costal region and Kyungnam costal region. The correlation coefficient (R) between the liquid limit and the plastic index is 0.93. It is seen that not only the water content and the liquid limit but also the water content and the initial void ratio are correlate, therefore the experimental equations were presented for the practical purpose.
