Mechanized tunnelling by TBMs has been extensively adopted for last two decades. Nevertheless, only few case histories have been reported. Unlike NATM tunnels, the case histories of the weak zone have been seldom reported for the mechanized tunnelling, even in the other countries. In this study, a collapse of TBM tunnel occurred in the severely altered weak rock zones between volcaniclastic rocks and granitic rocks was briefly described. A systematic geotechnical investigation, which was performed to examine the cause of the collapse, was carried out at the site and then characteristics of the rocks in the zones were evaluated. Moreover, This study propose a guide line of estimateing the possibility of collapse in TBM tunnels through comparing experimental results with surveying results of general rocks.

The engineering properties of composite silicate grout materials that were developed recently were analyzed. In this laboratory tests, OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement) was mainly used as grout materials. Moreover, the properties of composite silica, silica sol and sodium silicate (No.3) acting as coagulating agent were analyzed and compared with each other. For the purpose of finding the engineering properties of composite silicate grout materials, various physical and chemical tests were performed : naked eye measurement, photographing by using SEM, uniaxial compression test and in-situ application test. A series of test results showed that the strength of composite silicate grout materials was about 3～6 times that of ordinary sodium silicate grout materials in 6～24hr. Especially, based on the evaluation of the application of JS-CGM grout to the construction fields, composite silicate grout would be very effective in reducing the coefficient of permeability.

The necessity of exploration in deep sea increases to develop the natural resources. The deep marine sediments, which were recovered from the hydrate occurrence regions during the Ulleung Basin Gas Hydrate Expedition 2 (UBGH2), East Sea, Korea in 2010, are explored to obtain the geotechnical characteristics and strength parameters. The index properties of the specimens including the atterberg limits, specific surface, and particle size distribution are measured and compared with the previous studies. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy are conducted to analyze the clay mineralogy, chemical composition, and microstructure of the sediments. Strength parameters and shear wave velocities are measured with the axial strain by using an instrumented triaxial device. The strength parameters estimated by empirical equations are compared with the experimental results.

댐의 항구적인 안전을 담보하기 위해서는 댐 구조물 자체가 안전하여야 함은 물론 댐 구조물의 기초를 이루는 지반이 충분한 차수성과 내하성을 가져야 하므로 이들의 특성을 규명하기 위한 지질조사는 매우 중요하다. 댐 지질조사의 목적은 댐의 기초지반, 댐 체 축조를 위한 재료원 및 저수지 주변지반 등에 대한 지질학적 특성을 파악하고, 댐의 설계와 시공에 필요한 지질공학적 제반 성질을 상세히 파악하는데 있다. (중략)

토공작업시 굴착난이도(토층, 리핑암, 발파암)를 판정하는 기준으로는 암반의 강도, 풍화정도, 불연속면 간격과 같은 여러 가지 암반의 공학적 특성 및 지반의 탄성파 속도 등이 사용된다. 그러나 실제 토공 작업시의 굴착난이도 평가는 탄성파 탐사와 같은 암석ㆍ암반의 정량적인 판단기준에 근거하지 않고 단지 현장 기술자들의 육안관찰에 의존하여 굴착난이도를 구분하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문은 실내시험 및 현장시험, 현장굴착난이도 평가 및 탄성파탐사 등을 실시하여 여러 암석에 대한 강도특성을 파악한 것을 근거로 현장에서 사용할 수 있는 암반굴착난이도 평가법의 Checklist를 제안하였다.

In this study, to examine the applicability of the lime sludge as a landfill liner, 1) the geoechnical characteristics of sludge, 2) the characteristics of migrations of contaminants, and 3) the characteristic of leaching in the batch leaching test are investigated As a result, the hydraulic conductivity(K) of the lime sludge was found out to have 10 times lower hydraulic conductivity than the maximum allowable hydraulic conductivity of the liner Retardations of heavy metals(Cu, Pb) were found out to be higher than that of organic(phenol) due to the high pH(>11.0) of 4he lime sludge. As a result of the leaching test. the concentrations of Pb and Cu were found to be close to allowable limitation, so that they need to be kept in constant watch.

강도 또는 변형 이방성은 층리진 최적암, 박층모양의 변성암, 균일하게 절 리가 나있는 암석에서 흔히 볼 수 있다(Amadei, 1982, 1996). 특히, 대구지역은 퇴적암의 일종인 셰일로 구성되어 층리면의 각도에 따라 역학적인 특성이 달리 산정되어져야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 층리면의 각도를 달리하여 시료를 성형한 후 각종 시험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 일축 압축강도는 수평면과 층리면이 이루는 각이 0$^{\circ}$, 90$^{\circ}$에서 최고 강도를, 60$^{\circ}$에서 최저 강도를 나타내었다. 또한 간접 인장시험과 점 하중시험, 탄성파시험에서는 90$^{\circ}$에서 최고값을, 0$^{\circ}$에서 최저값을 보였다. 그리고, 층리에 따른 퇴적압의 일축 압축강도를 간접 인장강도, 점하중강도와의 상관성을 분석하여 각각의 관계를 회귀분석을 통한 상관식으로 나타내었다. 추가적으로 층리에 따른 공학적특성을 정량적으로 나타내었다.

A series of laboratory tests were performed to evaluate engineering properties of geobag system which is used for urgent restoration of the collapsed roadbed. In this study, the suitable geobag size was proposed as 44cm wide and 66cm long, and the suitable filling ratio of geobag was also proposed as 80% through the static loading tests. Also a series of model tests were carried out to investigate the characteristics of the engineering behavior and the distribution of earth pressure of the geobag roadbed under static and dynamic loading.

본 연구의 목적은 연약지반의 압밀계수 측정에 있어 Piezocone 관입시험을 이용할 때 관입시험자체의 정확성과 시험결과들에 미치는 여러 가지 지반공학적 영향요소들을 고려하려는데 있다. 본 연구의 연구실험방법으로는, Piezocone 관입을 위한 연약모형지반 조성을 위하여 초대형 Slurry Consolidometer에 Free Stress 상태의 Slurry를 45일간 압밀시킨 후 Automatic Computer Control Calibration Chamber (LSU/CALCHAS; Louisiana State University Calibration Chamber System)에 옮긴후 다시한번 압밀시키는 Two-Stage Consolidation Method를 사용하였다 동시에 연약모형지반내에 8개의 Piezometer를 설치하여 Piezocone 관입시 유발되는 지반 내에서의 과잉간극수압의 변환을 측정하였다. 총 25개의 Piezocone 시험중 4개는 Standard 10$\textrm{cm}^2$ Piezocone이고, 나머지 21개는 Miniature Piezocone이 사용되었다. 모형지반은 여러 가지 Boundary Condition들과 Stress Condition 그리고 Stress History등을 고려하여 조성되었다. 또한 Dissipation Test직후의 압밀특성을 확인하기 위하여 0.01초당 한 개이상의 실측점을 측정할 수 있는 Digital-Oscilloscope를 이용하였다. 특히 Dissipation Test, 즉시 Piezocone의 Filter Element에 잡히지 않는 과잉간극수압의 Initial Drop 존재에 관한 기존의 추측을 실제 실험치로 확인할 수 있었다.
