최근 홍수의 특성과 피해 양상은 과거와는 다르게 변화하고 있으며, 급격한 도시화로 인하여 기존 하천유역의 저류 능력이 감소하였으며 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위하여 이미 외국에서는 대심도 터널을 활용한 홍수재해 관리방안이 오래전부터 활용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 대심도 터널의 유입구, 수직갱, 감세지, 배수터널과 같은 시설물 중 대심도 터널 설계 시 수직 유입구를 통해 유입되는 유량의 에너지를 완화하고 효과적으로 배수 할 수 있도록 중요한 역할을 하는 감세지의 효율적인 깊이 산정을 위하여 수리모형실험을 실시하였으며, 모형은 Froude 상사법칙을 사용하여 원형의 1/18크기로 제작하였다. 본 연구에서 실시한 감세지 모형의 깊이는 0.278 m(원형 5.0 m), 0.417 m(원형 7.5 m)이며, 각 감세지 깊이별 수직 유입구 3개소(저지수직구1, 저지수직구2, 고지수직구) 및 5가지의 유량 CASE에 대하여 감세지 바닥면 압력을 비교?분석 하였다. 수직 유입구 3개소의 설계조건에 따른 감세지 깊이별 바닥면 압력 분포 평가를 실시한 결과 저지수직구1의 감세지 깊이 0.278 m(원형 5.0m)에서는 최대 압력이 4번 지점에서 $0.075kg/cm^2$(원형 1.30 MPa)이 측정 되었으며, 0.417 m(원형 7.5m)에서는 최대 압력이 1번지점에서 $0.089kg/cm^2$(원형 1.54MPa)이 측정되었다. 또한 저지수직구2의 감세지 깊이 0.278 m(원형 5.0 m)에서는 최대 압력이 1번 지점에서 $0.074kg/cm^2$(원형 1.28 MPa)이 측정 되었으며, 0.417 m(원형 7.5 m)에서는 최대 압력이 2번지점에서 $0.088kg/cm^2$(원형 1.52 MPa)이 측정되었다. 고지수직구의 감세지 깊이 0.278 m(원형 5.0 m)에서는 최대 압력이 3번 지점에서 $0.082kg/cm^2$(원형 1.42 MPa)이 측정 되었으며, 0.417 m(원형 7.5 m)에서는 최대 압력이 1번지점에서 $0.092kg/cm^2$(원형 1.59 MPa)이 측정되었다. 본 연구에서 실시한 수리모형실험의 결과 저유량에서 고유량으로 갈수록 최대압력지점은 반시계방향으로 움직이는 것을 알 수 있으며, 이는 수직 유입구의 설계조건에 따른 수직갱에서의 회전수차에 의하여 발생하는 것으로 분석하였다. 따라서 적절한 감세지 깊이 산정을 위해서 대심도터널의 수직 유입구(유입구형태, 수직갱)의 평가가 함께 유기적으로 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

When constructing a cylindrical vertical shaft through the open-cut method, the walls are generally designed to be temporary flexible walls that allow a certain level of displacement. The earth pressure applied to the flexible walls acts as an external force and its accurate estimation is essential for reasonable and economical structure design. The earth pressure applied to the flexible wall is closely interrelated to the plastic deformation of the surrounding ground. This study simulated a stepwise excavation for constructing a cylindrical vertical shaft through a centrifugal model test and evaluated the continuous deformation behaviors of the surrounding ground through digital image analysis.

Ground excavation inevitably causes ground displacement of adjacent ground, and structures and facilities exposed to ground displacement may suffer various damages. Therefore, in order to minimize the damage and damage to adjacent structures and facilities caused by excavation, ground displacement (settlement and horizontal displacement) in the adjacent ground caused by excavation must first be predicted. There is many ground displacement information induced by general braced cut excavation, but the information is not enough for circular shaft excavation. This study aims to provide information on the estimation of ground settlement caused by circular shaft excavation through the case analysis of circular shafts and comparison with braced cut excavation. From this study, it was found that the use of the settlement criterion of braced cut excavation as the settlement management criterion for circular shaft excavation is a conservative approach in terms of safety. But when considering the economic aspect, it may result in overdesign of the wall and therefore, a more reasonable settlement criterion can be needed for circular shaft excavation.

Considering the stability of the ground in the process of excavation design is essential because there is a risk of basal heave due to the load of the surrounding ground during the vertical excavation. However, calculation of the factor of safety for basal heave should be performed with two-dimensional equation, and the equation cannot reflect three-dimensional shape of vertical excavation. In this study, an equation for factor of safety for the basal heave was proposed with considering the effect of three-dimensional shape. It is confirmed that the equation can more appropriately reflect the basal heave stability 3D circular vertical excavation than the existing equation. Using the equation proposed in this study, it is possible to derive an appropriate factor of safety according to the 3D excavation shape during the circular vertical shaft excavation.

This research was carried in order to improve design technique for the vertical shaft of which design guide has not been proposed clearly. The deformation tendency of vertical shaft and distribution of the earth pressure around shaft were reviewed with both of theoretical earth pressure distribution suggested in design criteria and measured data which had been gained from 2 constructing shaft. The distribution of earth pressure applied on the vertical shaft was similar with the result of previous theory for the earth pressure proposed by Shin (2007). Moreover it was observed that asymmetric deformation and earth pressure around vertical shaft were caused by inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the ground. The asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) in soil and weathered rock were divergent according to the shape ratio. In addition, it is more reasonable that the value of asymmetric earth pressure ratio ($R_p$) is considered less than 0.35 in the case of constructing shaft under rock.

When vertical shafts are constructed in soft clay with low strength, there is a risk of basal heave, which causes the excavation surface to heave due to the low bearing capacity of the ground against the imbalance of earth pressure at the excavation surface. Methods of deriving a safety factor have been proposed to evaluate the stability against the basal heave. However, there are limitations in that it is difficult to accurately evaluate the heave stability because many assumptions are included in the theoretical derivation. In this study, assuming that a circular vertical shaft is constructed in soft clay, the existing safety factor equation proposed through a theoretical approach was supplemented. Bearing capacity according to the shaft geometry, inhomogeneity of the soil, and the effect of soil plug were considered theoretically and applied in a previous safety factor equation. A three-dimensional numerical analysis was conducted to simulate the occurrence of basal heave and review the supplemented equation through various case studies. Several series of case studies were conducted targeting various factors affecting heave stability. It was verified that the additionally considered characteristics were properly reflected in the supplemented equation. Furthermore, the effects of each factor constituting the safety factor equation were examined using the results of the numerical analysis performed by simulating various cases. It was confirmed that considering the undrained shear strength increment according to depth had the most significant effect on the calculation of the safety factor.

It is well known that earth pressure on the cylindrical open caisson and cylindrical retaining wall of a shaft is less than that at-rest and in plane strain condition because of the horizontal and vertical arching effects due to wall displacement and stress relief. In order to examine the earth pressure distribution of a cylindrical wall, model tests were performed in dry sand for the care of constant wall displacement with depth. Model test apparatus which can control wall displacement, wall friction, and wall shape ratio was developed. The effects of various factors that influence earth pressure acting on the cylindrical retaining wall of a shaft were investigated.

These days the circular cross section cofferdam has been frequently used for the earth retaining structures or cut off wall such as ventilating opening, intake tower in cofferdam, shaft for emergency. By the arching effect, the circular cross section type cofferdam has more advantage than a polygon cofferdam in terms of the structural forces and moment. This paper shows the proper approach to analyze the circular cross section cofferdam using 2D Finite Element Method (FEM) for the circular stiffener (ring beam) evaluation. Besides, the various shapes of cofferdam indluding circular cross section have modeled the 3D Finite Element Mothod (FEM). The circular cross section cofferdam shows the minimum reaction force compared with the other shapes of cofferdam.

In the present study, the flow field in a square container with various comer rounding is studied to investigate drain flow characteristics. An attempt has been made to understand the mechanism that is responsible for vortex suppressing by the different radius of rounding at the comer. For this purpose, flow visualization studies using PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) are employed to determine the flow patterns in a square tank. Results are obtained when there is no draining and with draining. The flow field is visualized both in horizontal and vertical planes.

Recently, requirement of a long subsea tunnel has increased due to political, economical and social demands such as saving of distribution costs, improvement of traffic convenience, and regional development. Road and railroad tunnel need a shaft for construction and ventilation because of increase of tunnel length. Shaft diameter, lining sectional thickness and rebar quantity have to be determined for design of concrete lining in the shaft. A lot of structural analyses are needed for optimal design of concrete lining considering shaft diameter, load conditions and ground conditions. Design charts are proposed by structural analyses for various conditions in this study. A sectional thickness and rebar quantity can be easily determined using the proposed design charts.
