In this study, it was examined a strength characteristic of organic acid material that is eco-friendly and low energy as a soil improving material. The object of this study is to analysis of strength changes with observing the clay mixed organic acid material through the unconfined compression strength test and triaxial compression test during 28 days. As a result of the tests, the strength of clay mixed organic acid material is increased when the more ages are prolonged, the more organic acid material mixture ratio growed. Therefore, in grasping the strength improvement effects of clay by organic acid material mixing, it confirmed that organic acid material as soil improving material is effective through unconfined compression strength test and triaxial compression test. Through this test, the definite strength increase is confirmed according to the mixture of the organic acid material and the possibility of soil improvement is also confirmed based on this result. From now on, detailed examination and field test will help closely to definite strength characteristics.

콘관입시험(CPT)은 의사정적상태로 수행되는 현장시험방법으로서, 각종 기초구조물의 설계와 더불어 지반조사를 위한 대표적 방법으로 널리 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 콘관입시험결과를 이용하여 사질토 지반에 있어서 지반강도의 상세평가법을 제안하고자 한다. 사질토의 강도는 상대밀도와 응력상태에 따라 변하는 상태의존적 성질을 나타내고 있으나, 이러한 역학적 성질은 실험실 내에서만 측정이 가능한 상태이며, 현장강도의 경험식이나, 대표강도의 평가만이 제안되어 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대표적 현장시험방법인 CPT를 이용하여 다이러턴시 특성 평가가 가능하며, 다양한 지반특성치가 반영될 수 있는 현장강도의 상세평가법을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위해 실내삼축압축시험을 통해 얻어진 강도특성과 역학특성치들을 분석하였으며, 이를 토대로 수정 다일러턴시 평가법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법의 검증을 위해 가압토조를 이용한 콘관입시험을 수행하였으며, 측정값과의 비교분석을 수행하였다.

In general the strength parameter of the ground will be changed by reinforcing the ground around tunnel. In this case, the concept of tunnel design, such as supporting system, excavation, lining and so on, should be modified based on the failure criteria or the ground changed by the reinforcement. This paper presents the variation mechanism of strength parameters and new failure criteria of the reinforced ground. In order to perform this research, theoretical and experimental works were carried out. It was clearly founded that the cohesion of strength parameters is only increased by reinforcement of ground, especially by rock bolting.

In this research, the composite grounds including original clay and soil-cement were constructed for conducting uniaxial compression test. Strength and deformation properties were analysed using results of laboratory tests with variations of water content of clay, replacement ratio and cement content. Numerical simulation using 3D distinct element method was conducted for soil cement. For strength of composite ground that contains more than cement contents of 15 %, it is more effective to increase cement content than increase of replacement ratio. Strength and elastic modulus of composite ground could be predicted by regression equations using uniaxial compression strength of clay, cement content of soil cement and replacement ratio. For strength and elastic modulus of soil cement, which is most important things for predicting final strength and elastic modulus of composite ground, numerical simulation using the distinct element method adapted bonding model could be used to verify laboratory test, and predict strength and elastic modulus.

생석회말뚝공법은 연약점토에 대한 유용한 지반개량공법으로서 그 개량효과는 매우 빨리 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 생석회말뚝 타설 면적비에 따라 연약점토지반의 함수비나 전단강도 등의 특성이 어떻게 변화하는가를 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 철제상자에 연약점토로 모형지반을 조성하고 소요 면적비로 생석회말뚝을 타설한 후 적당한 시간간격을 두고 함수비와 전단강도를 측정하는 실내 모형시험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 면적비가 증가함에 따라 함수비의 감소량과 전단강도의 증가량은 커지지만 면적비가 약 10%를 초과하면 별 차이를 보이지 않으며 같은 면적비에서 생석회말뚝의 지름이 작고 간격이 좁으면 함수비의 감소량과 전단강도의 증가량은 더 크다는 것을 규명하였다. 또한 같은 양을 사용했다면 생석회말뚝공법보다 생석회혼합공법을 적용한 흙의 전단강도 증가량이 더 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

지반이 산업용 기름으로 오염될 때 지반의 강도변화 특성을 연구하기 위하여 모래와 실트질 모래 및 카오리나이트를 대상으로 함수비아 함유비를 변화시키며 다짐실험, 투수실험, 비배수상태에서 삼축압축실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과에 의하면 밀도가 같은 모래의 경우는 기름을 혼합하였을 경우가 물을 혼합하였을 경우에 비해 약 7%정도 전단 강도가 떨어지고 실트질 모래와 카오리나이트 경우는 기름을 혼합하였을 경우가 물을 혼합하였을 경우에 비해 점토입자와 기름의 화학적, 물리학적인 상호 작용으로 5~15%정도 강도가 증가하는 현상을 보였다. 일반적으로 산업용 기름 유출에 따라 토양오염 및 수질오염으로 동.식물에 큰 영향을 주고 있으나 토질역학적 거동은 초기 상태 및 모래에서는 전단 강도가 감소하였으나 점성토의 경우는 기름 유출 또는 유입에 따라 응집성, 부착성이 생겨 강도증가 현상을 가져와 큰 문제점이 없는 것으로 판단된다.

This study shows that tensile strength in moist sand clearly exists due to moisture and it is possible to simply and accurately measure the tensile strength of sands at low moisture contents. These measurements were made through the use of a newly developed direct tension apparatus and technique which are able to produce highly accurate results. The magnitudes of the tensile strengths of these moist and relatively clean sands are not equal to zero, as is widely assumed. Tensile strength increases with increasing moisture content and this trend is more noticeable at increasing relative densities. The influence of tensile strength in geotechnical problems was also examined by considering a simple rigid circular footing in sandy soil. It clearly shows that a small amount of tensile strength can significantly enhance the stability of a geotechnical system.

An experimental investigation was carried out to evaluate the strength characteristics of low cement ratio soil stabilizer. The low cement ratio soil stabilizer has been developed by the replacement of certain part of cement with by-product pozzolanic materials such as blast furnace slag, fly ash, waste gypsum and by using activator. A series of unconfined compressive strength tests were performed to investigate and obtain high-strength composite soil stabilizer with large amounts of blast furnace slag and fly ash. Test results show that there were better properties when blast furnace slag, fly ash, waste gypsum, and activator were added in proper ratio. The replacement of certain part of cement with by-product pozzolanic materials improved the strength and pore structure properties.

A laboratory test on uniaxial compressive strength was carried out by making 640 specimens in total, which were divided into two groups by their curing time of 7 and 28 days for 3 water content conditions of a water content at 100% saturation level and 10% and 20% increased water content from the state with clay, sand and gravel mixed grounds of 20 ground conditions of 4 types of stabilizer mixing conditions which were 8%, 10%, 12%, 14%, to understand laboratory strength characteristics for strength design of deep mixing ground. In case of clayey grounds, although the strength increased depending on the increase of stabilizer content, it showed to be analogous regardless of the curing time. And the impact on the strength development of deep mixing specimen according to water content was considered to be comparatively little compared to other grounds. For sandy grounds, the strength increment amount clearly showed to increase as stabilizer content increased, and also the increase of water content was determined to be decreasing the strength increment effect. For gravel mixed grounds, at 14% or over of stabilizer content, the effect on strength development was big making a large increase in strength, but compared to sandy grounds, the strength ratio depending on the curing time showed to be small.
