지하철, 고속철도, 신공항, 공동구, 지하보도, 지하차도, 하수도, 도로 및 철도 등 의 지하구조에는 일반적으로 박스형태의 콘크리트 구조물이 건설되고 있다. 1990년 대 중반 이후 시공 및 사용중인 지하 박스 콘크리트 구조물의 균열 및 누수 등의 문제점이 사회적인 문제로 부각되기 시작하였다. 이러한 지하 박스 콘크리트 구조물에 발생할 수 있는 문제점은 크게 결함(defect), 손상(damage), 열화(deterioration)의 3가지로 구분될 수 있으며, 이들 원인은 구조물에 균열(cracking), 누수(leakage), 처짐(deflection), 부동침하(settlement) 재료분리(segregation) , 박리(delamination), 부식(corrosion), 박락(spalling)등의 현상으로 나타난다.(중략)

Even though a lot of advanced researches on analysis, design, and performance evaluation of reinforced concrete (RC) under seismic action have been carried out, there has been only a few study on seismic analysis of underground RC structures surrounding soil medium. Since the underground RC structures interact with surrounding soil medium, a path-dependent soil model which can predict the soil response is necessary for analyzing behavior of the structure inside soil medium. The behavior of interfacial zone between the RC structure and the surrounding medium should be also considered for more accurate seismic analysis of the RC structure. In this paper, an averaged constitutive model of concrete and reinforcing bars for RC structure and path-dependent Ohsaki's model for soil are applied, and an elasto-plastic interface model having thickness is proposed for seismic analysis of underground RC structures. A finite element analysis technique is developed by applying aforementioned constitutive equations and is verified by predicting both static and dynamic behaviors of RC structures. Then, failure mechanisms of underground RC structure under seismic action are numerically derived through seismic analysis of underground RC station structure under different seismic forces. Finally, the changes of failure mode and the damage level of the structures are also analytically derived for different design cases of underground RC structures.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the durability and deterioration of concrete lining in the seven conventional tunnels. These tunnels were constructed about 40~70 years ago, and closed about 10~40 years ago. The field investigation and various laboratory testings were performed for this study. It was observed from the visual, examinations that the concrete linings of 7 tunnels were severely deteriorated, such as, cracks, leakages, desquamation, and exploitations. The compressive strengths obtained from rebound hardness method and uniaxial compressive strength test on core specimens largely differed depending on the locations in the tunnel. The maximum compressive strength of concrete lining was greater about 2 times than the minimum compressive strength of concrete lining in the same tunnel. The results of micro-structural analysis showed that the substances deteriorating the concrete lining, such as ettringite and thaumasite, were detected in the concrete lining of tunnel.

This paper proposes the appropriate waterproofing methods for underground structures after applying different types of waterproofing materials on the concrete test specimens and selecting the best results out of humidity testing in winter conditions. Results of the testing showed that the underground structures absolutely require relevant waterproofing application based on the environmental conditions; when applied with interior waterproofing, the results showed that the concrete maintained high level of humidity and reinforcing steel within the concrete layer corroded. However, when applied with exterior waterproofing, it was shown that the waterproofing layer prevent direct contact with water and concrete, thereby protecting the concrete structure and improving overall durability. It follows that during underground structure construction, exterior waterproofing methods are have shown by an effective method for improving the durability as well as providing a comfortable interior environment for users.

Explosion after penetration of a warhead in an underground structure generally causes considerable displacement, breakage and extensive damage to the target. Therefore, in order to reduce the damage effect, it is required to design an underground structure protection against penetration. In this study, major factors for improvement of penetration protection performance of reinforced concrete underground structures using applied element method are divided into strength (concrete UCS) and density (concrete thickness, reinforcement layers, reinforcement diameters, reinforcement spacings). Based on these major factors, this study performed numerical analysis of simulation of dynamic response by penetrators under various conditions and analyzed the results. The results of this study are expected to be used as basis materials to improve penetration protection performance of reinforced concrete underground structures.

To estimate the retained strength of reinforced concrete structure after fire is very difficult because the complex behavior of structure is hard to understand during course of a fire. However, the damages which is caused by fire of the traffic facility infrastructure are enormous. Therefore the security against fire is important element that must not be overlooked. For this reason, an exact estimate method of the fire endurance is highly demanded. In this study, the validity of the nonlinear finite element method approach for the fire endurance of reinforced concrete structure is verified. The results of fire endurance estimate of underground road way by nonlinear finite element method approach are compared with those by ACI 216R-89.

과연 콘크리트 구조물에 있어서 누수 균열은 문제가 되는 것일까？ 이에 대해 설계, 구조 시공, 재료(콘크리트), 방수, 품질 및 안전의 관련 전문가는 여러 가지 이견을 말하고 있다. 또한 콘크리트 구조물에 관계하는 발주자, 건축주, 사용자, 시공자의 입장도 상황에 따라 다르게 해석하고, 평가하고 있다. 예를 들면 일반적으로 발주자(건축주 등)는 시공자에게 누수 균열은 하자이므로 무조건 보수할 것을 요구하는 반면 사용자(언론 포함)가 문제를 제기할 때(공공공사의 경우) 발주자는 이에 대해 크게 문제되지 않는다고 답변하는 경우도 많다. 어떤 기술자는 콘크리트의 누수 균열은 피할 수 없는 사항이므로 근본적으로 해결할 수 없으므로 완벽한 시공 및 보수는 어렵고, 다만 전체적인 누수량이 어느 정도 이하가 되도록만 관리할 뿐이라고 말하고, 또한 지하 구조물의 누수 균열은 피할 수 없어, 누수를 시각적으로 가리기 위한 보호벽을 쌓아 관리하는 것이 당연하다고 말하는 기술자도 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 일반 사용자들은 무조건 누수균열이 없어야 한다고 의견을 제시하고 있다. 특히 언론에 구조물 누수의 문제가 수시로 보도되어 관계자 및 관련 건설기술자들의 자존심이 크게 훼손되고, 이를 보수하기 위한 비용이 엄청나게 지출되고 있음을 볼 때 적당히 간과해서는 안될 문제임에는 틀림없다.(중략)
