Visual MODFLOW를 이용하여 서울지하철 7호선 706공구에 계획된 터널 굴착에 따른 지하수 유동계의 변화를 모사하였다. 경계조건은 모델 영역 내 하천(굴포천)의 경우 일정수두경계, 터널 굴착 구간의 경우 $0.39{\sim}0.58m^2/day$의 전도계수를 갖는 배수경계(Drain), 터널 개착구간은 Inactive cell이 존재하는 일정수두경계 조건으로 설정하였다. 모델 보정은 현장시험을 통해 구해진 수리상수는 일정하게 유지하고 함양률을 변화시키면서 실시하였으며, 정류모사를 반복 수행하여 최적의 함양률(150 mm/yr)을 결정하였다. 모사 결과 터널 구간으로의 지하수 유입량은 굴착 및 개착 완료 시 $623m^3/day$, 터널 완공 후 정류상태의 경우 $584m^3/day$인 것으로 나타났다. Zone Budget을 이용한 유출입량 분석 결과 정류 상태 시 터널 내로 유입되는 지하수의 69%는 터널 인근 하천수의 유입에 기인하며, 나머지 31%는 주변 지역에서 함양된 지하수에 의한 것으로 나타났다.

The waterway tunnel zone (length 1,484m) in the Hyeonseo-myeon area that is a part of Yeongcheon dam waterway tunnel has been studied to characterize the relationship between groundwater inflow into the waterway tunnel and hydrogeologic characteristics. The effects of sandstone thickness in the tunnel section. fracture density, fracture aperture and spacing, fault zone width and hydraulic conductivity on the early inflow (inflow prior to the lining and grouting) are investigated. The relationship between fracture density and hydraulic conductivity is also considered. The result of the study suggests that fault zone width has the greatest effect on groundwater inflow into the tunnel, and sandstone thickness, hydraulic conductivity and fracture density in order shows an influence on the inflow.

본 연구는 지하처분연구시설(URT : Underground Research Tunnel)시설 건설공사와 관련하여 굴착 후의 지하수유동체계 변화를 예측하기 위하여 수행되었다. 지하수유동체계 모사를 위해 사용된 모델은 연속체 매질 개념의 Visual Modflow이며, URT 주변의 시추공에서 조사된 자료를 초기 입력자료로 이용하였다. 1단계 터널굴착 후에 계측된 지하수위 및 터널 내 지하수 유입량을 토대로 모델교정을 수행하였고, 교정된 모델을 이용하여 2단계 터널굴착 후의 지하수유동체계를 예측하였다. 1단계 굴착 후 약 4.3m의 수위강하가 발생한 KP-2번공은 2단계 굴착 후에는 약 0.05m의 수위강하가 예측되었다. 또한 2단계 굴착 후의 지하수위는 터널 입구를 기준으로 약 108m지점부터 터널 종점부 175m까지는 터널 상부에 분포하며, 종점부 175m지점에서는 지하수위가 터널 천장(roof)부로부터 약 12.7m 상부에 위치하는 것으로 예측되었다. 지하수위의 강하범위는 터널 중심부로부터 반경 약 300m까지 발생되는 것으로 예측되었고, 예상 지하수 유입량은 24.7ton/day로 1단계 공사 후보다. 약 2.7ton/day 증가하며, 공동굴착 전 터널 중심부의 지하수가 지표까지 도달하는 시간은 약 39.8년이 소요되는 것으로 나타났다.

Groundwater seepage into a tunnel is one of the main causes triggering tunnel collapse and the consequent ground subsidence. Thus, it is important to estimate adequately the groundwater inflow rate and porewater pressure change during tunneling with time elapse. In current practice, Goodman's analytical solution (or image tunnel method) assuming homogeneous ground condition around a tunnel is commonly used for estimating groundwater inflow rate. However, the generally-used analytical solution for estimating groundwater inflow rate does not consider groundwater level drawdown and permeability change with depth, and the inflow rate can be overestimated in design phase. In this study, parametric study was performed in order to investigate the effect of groundwater level drawdown and permeability reduction with depth, and transient flow analysis was carried out for studying the inflow rate change as well as groundwater level and porewater pressure change around a tunnel with time elapse.

This paper discussed about the effect of permeability reduction of the jointed rock mass in the vicinity of a tunnel which is one of the reasons making large difference between the estimated ground-water inflow rate and the measured value. Current practice assumes that the jointed rock mass around a tunnel is a homogeneous, isotropic porous medium with constant permeability. However, in actual condition the permeability of a jointed rock mass varies with the change of effective stress condition around a tunnel, and in turn effective stress condition is affected by the ground water flow in the jointed rock mass around the tunnel. In short time after tunnel excavation, large increase of effective tangential stress around a tunnel due to stress concentration and pore-water pressure drop, and consequently large joint closure followed by significant permeability reduction of jointed rock mass in the vicinity of a tunnel takes place. A significant pore-water pressure drop takes place across this ring zone in the vicinity of a tunnel, and the actual pore-water pressure distribution around a tunnel shows large difference from the value estimated by an analytical solution assuming the jointed rock mass around the tunnel as a homogeneous, isotropic medium. This paper presents the analytical solution estimating pore-water pressure distribution and ground-water inflow rate into a tunnel based on the concept of hydro-mechanically coupled behavior of a jointed rock mass and the solution is verified by numerical analysis.

As ground water influx quantity which flows into the tunnel inside from the 7.937 km section of Han River and small and 7 medium-sized rivers which pass through subway line 5 is average $34,444\;m^3/day$ and it's 55.3% of the underground water influx quantity $62,272\;m^3/day$ which flows into whole tunnel section 31.29 km. If we suppressed the underground water influx from the rivers, it would be expect that the maintenance and management expenses would be able to reduce a lot. In addition, as the result of investigating the difference between the ground water influx quantity which flows into the river section and that of the design standard, the ground water influx quantity is $3.01\;m^3/min$ and it is flowing to similar level of tunnel design standard $3.00\;m^3/min$. However, when it is compared with tunnel average influx quantity $1.38\;m^3/min$, it has been found that 2.18 times of ground water flows into rivers.

Most of the urban tunnels in Korea, which are represented by the 1st to 3rd subways, use the drainage tunnel by NATM. Recently, when a construction project that actively utilizes large-scale urban space is promoted, negative effects that do not conform to the existing empirical rules of urban tunnels may occur. In particular, there is a high possibility that groundwater fluctuations and hydrodynamic behavior will occur owing to the practice of tunnel technology in Korea, which has mainly applied the drainage tunnel. In order to solve the problem of the drainage tunnel, attempts are being made to control groundwater fluctuations. For this, the establishment of tunnel groundwater management standard concept and the analysis of the tunnel hydraulic behavior were performed. To prevent the problem of groundwater fluctuations caused by the construction of large-scale tunnels in urban areas, it was suggested that the conceptual transformation of the empirical technical practice, which is applied only in the underground safety impact assessment stage, to the direction of controlling the inflow in the tunnel, is required. And the relationship between the groundwater level and the inflow of the tunnel required for setting the allowable inflow when planning the tunnel was derived. The introduction of a tunnel groundwater management concept is expected to help solve problems such as groundwater fluctuations, ground settlement, depletion of groundwater resources, and decline of maintenance performance in various urban deep tunnel construction projects to be promoted in the future.

배수공법으로 터널을 설계할 때 다양한 지질조건에 따라 터널내로 유입되는 지하수 용수량과 배수관의 배수능력을 비교 검토하였다. 기존 설계 기준에 의한 터널 배수관은 다양한 지질조건을 가지는 대수층의 수리전도도에 따라 안정성 여부가 달라지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 기존 배수관 (${\Phi}300m/m$)으로 터널을 설계할 경우 투수성이 좋은 석회암 구간 및 파쇄대 구간에서는 문제가 생길 가능성이 높고, 풍화 받지 않은 암반층의 경우에는 터널길이 20km까지 지하수 용수량을 수용 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

Intake of groundwater by tunneling in a mountainous area mostly results from groundwater flow through fractured parts of total rock mass. For reasonable analysis of this phenomenon the representative joint groups 1, 2, and 3 have been selected by previous investigations, geological/geophysical field tests and boring works. Three dimensional fractures were generated by the FracMan and MAFIC which is a three dimensional finite element model has been used to analyse a groundwater flow through fractured media. Monte Carlo simulation was applied to reduce the uncertainty of this study. The numerical results showed that the average and deviation of amounts of groundwater intaked into tunnel per unit length were $5.40{\times}10^{-1}$ and $3.04{\times}10^{-1}m^3/min/km$. It is concluded that tunnel would be stable on impact of groundwater environment by tunneling because of the lower value than $2.00{\sim}3.00m^3/min/km$ as previous and present standard on the application of tunnel construction.
