A lot of landslides were occurred in Gangnung, Macheon and Geochang areas by Typhoons such as RUSA(2002) and MEAMI(2003). Soil properties of these areas are investigated regarding geological conditions in this study. The shallow plane failure were occurred in Gangnung and Geochang areas, whereas the deep circle failure were occurred in Macheon area. The matrix in Gangnung and Geochang areas was composed of Granite, and the matrix in Macheon area was composed of Gabbro. The disturbed and undisturbed soils were sampled in these areas. As the results of laboratory tests using sampled soils, the coefficient of permeability in Granite region is lower than that in Gabbro region. In the cases that the silt and clay contents are included less than 4% for the soils of Granite region and less than 7% for the soils of Gabbro region, the coefficients of permeability are rapidly increased for both soils. In addition, the simple equations for predicting the coefficients of permeability are proposed using the effective particle size and the silt and clay contents according to geological condition.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate engineering properties of Ferro Nickel Slag (FNS) and to investigate the effects of FNS on potential contamination of surrounding soil and water through small and large chamber tests. Soil conditions in the chamber tests were made as closely as possibile to the field conditions. In order to simulate different types of water, we used fresh water, acidic water and seawater. Sand soils were made with relative densities of 40% and 60%, and clay with the degree of compaction of 90%. After flushing water through the FNS in the chambers was completed, the PH test was performed for the water flowing out of the chambers and the soil samples were collected for soil pollution analysis. Based on the results of the chamber tests, although the pollution level was slightly higher in the silt than in the sand, the environmental effect that FNS causes the surrounding soil was found to be very minimal. This indicates that FNS can be used as construction material in place of natural aggregates.

본 연구에서는 국내 원전이 위치한 지역의 토양에서 $Cs^{137}$의 축적 경향을 파악하기 위하여 원전이 위치한 영광군 관내의 평지와 고산지대인 금정산, 불갑산 및 영광원전으로부터 원거리에 위치한 내장산 등을 대상으로 토양 중 $Cs^{137}$의 화학적인 특성과 고도에 따른 $Cs^{137}$의 축적 경향을 평가하기 위하여 실험을 통한 연구를 수행하였다. 일반적으로 국내 토양 중 $Cs^{137}$의 농도는 불검출 - 2523q/kg-dry의 범위 내에 포함되었으며 본 연구에서 수행한 평지부분과 고산지대인 원전으로부터 2km 떨어진 금정산, 약 20km 떨어진 불갑산 및 원거리에 위치한 내장산에서도 지금까지의 $Cs^{137}$ 농도 범위에 들었다. 그러나 고산지대는 평지에서와는 다르게 고도가 증가함에 따라 $Cs^{137}$ 농도도 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있고, 정상 부분보다 $Cs^{137}$의 농도가 하부 부분보다 더 높게 나타났고 영광원전 인근 일반평지부분보다는 $Cs^{137}$의 방사능 농도가 2~6배 정도의 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 연구결과 $Cs^{137}$의 분포는 지형적 요인(고도, 강수량 등)과 토양의 화학적 요인(양이온치환용량)과 상관성이 근 것으로 나타났다. 지형적 요인으로는 주로 고도를 들수가 있는데 높은 고도의 산의 경우 대기중 $Cs^{137}$이 토양에 침투되는 기회가 커짐으로 동일한 토질 조건의 평지 토양에 비해 높은 $Cs^{137}$ 준위를 나타내었다. 토양의 화학적 요인으로는 양이온치환용량이 주요 인자임이 규명되었다. 양이온치환용량은 침적된 $Cs^{137}$을 토양에 고정시키는 능력을 나타내며 같은 지형조건에서 높은 양이온치환용량을 가진 시료가 낮은 양이온치환용량을 가진 토양에 비해 $Cs^{137}$ 농도가 높은 값을 보였다.

In this study the pilot test of CGS as injection method by low slump mortar was performed and the results were analyzed in order to find out the application of this method and effect of settlement restraint. The site far pilot test is adjacent to apartments supported by pile foundations. Sand drain method was performed previously as countermeasures against settlement, but settlement occur continuously because this ground is very soft. Site investigations such as SPT, DCPT and vane shear test were performed to determine the characteristics of ground improvement. Field measurements and FDM analysis were performed on purpose to find out the displacement of ground during injection works. From the results of this study, CGS method can be optimized by the control of diagram, space, depth, injection material, and injection pressure. CGS improved soft ground compositely by the bearing effect of CGS columns and reinforcement of adjacent ground. Considering that increase of N value is about 2.1, CGS can be considered as an effective method to increase the bearing capacity as well as to stop the settlement of soft ground. It is also expected to be economic and effective in improvement of ground when it is used in applicable sites.

Landslide researches are divided to a method of interrelationship for various factors, method of predicting landslide possibility, and method of estimating landslide risk which are occurring landslides in the natural slope. Most of landslides occurred in natural slope are caused by a heavy rainfall in summer season. Weathered soil layer located in upper side of rock mass was occurred. As well as, they are announced to have an influence to geometry, geology, soil characteristics, and precipitation in the natural slope. In order to investigate and interpret the variety of landslides from field investigation to risk analysis, landslide analysis process due to geotechnical and geological opinions are systematically demanded. In this research, the study area is located in Macheon area, Gyeongsangnam-do and performed the landslide investigation. From the results of landslide investigation and analysis, optimized standard model based on natural landslide is proposed to high technical method of landslide investigation and interpretation.

A direct shear test is classified roughly by one side simple shear test of confining horizontal displacement type and torsional shear test of non-confining one. Direct shear test that has been widely used so far has some problems with test apparatus, testing and the analysis, and in particular that its strength value is everestimated in sandy soils. Also, progressive failure of shearing process happens from shear apparatus restriction and because the shear strain and shear stress are erratic in specimen, we can not define the shear strain value. In the meantime, a simple shear test having advantage of direct shear test is an ideal test method that can get stress-strain relation on shear because it can deliver constant shearing deformation to specimen. However, simple shear test cannot be used practically, because its structure makes tester manufacturing difficult. This paper described a on outline of test apparatus, improvement of test method, and constant pressure test results based on the obtained from improved direct shear apparatus and the standardization of JGS soil testing method.

Domestic design manuals provide various empirical relationships of design parameters of soils with N values from the Standard Penetration Test (SPT), which can be widely used in the basic design process as well as during the construction process. However, the currently used empirical relationships are based on the data from foreign countries and are rarely evaluated with domestic data with currently used site investigation techniques. Therefore, in this study, those empirical relationships and conversion tables are evaluated with the geotechnical information in the Integrated DB Center of National Geotechnical Information and new empirical relationships are newly proposed with the consideration of domestic geotechnical conditions.

근 반세기 동안에 세계에서 간척 사업이 가장 활발하였던 곳은 화란의 북해안과 우리 나라의 서남해안이다. 이는 한반도의 서해안을 말하는 것으로 북한까지 포함된 것을 말한다. 그간 우리 나라는 간척 사업에 의해 농지의 외연적인 확대로 쌀의 지급율을 높이는 데 일익을 담당한 것도 사실이다 우리 나라의 서해안은 간만의 차가 커서 \circled1간척지가 잘 발달되어 간척 적지가 많고, \circled2지구 내의 배수 방식이 외국에서처럼 기계 배수가 아니고 자연 배수가 가능하여 유지 관리비가 적게 든다. 그러나 \circled3 방조제. 축조시 불가피하게 강력한 조류속이 발생하지만 이에 견별 수 있는 자연 석재를 비롯하여 축제 재료의 구득이 용이하고, 돌망태 공법을 개발하여 공사가 용이하고 공사비도 저렴하다. 또한 태풍이나 해일에 의해 해면이 상승하는 기상조도 일본이나 화란의 3.5m인데 비해 우리 나라는 1.5m정도로 이들 나라에 비하여 같은 조건에서도 둑마루 높이가 2.0m정도가 낮아져 공사비도 저렴하고 외측 피복공 공사도 용이하다. 뿐만 아니라 서남 해안의 해안선은 굴곡이 심하고 연안에는 섬들이 산재하여 있어, 매립 면적당 방조제의 길이가 짧고, 공사의 단계별 추진이 용이하다. 간석지의 토질도 비교적 단단하여 방조제의 축조나 토지 이용에 적합하는 등, 자연적인 간척 여건은 세계에서 찾아볼 수 없는 천혜의 입지 조건을갖추고 있다. 그동안 우리 나라의 간척 기술은 8 . 15 광복 이후, 소규모 간척 사업을 시행하다가 60년대에 이르러 국가 경제 개발의 일환으로 추진된 동진강 간척사업을 필두로, 70년대에는 남양, 아산, 삽교천 방조제 공사를 시행하면서 우리 나라 여건에 부합되는 방조제 구조와 공법을 독자적으로 개발하였고, 80년대에는 영산강, 대호, 금강, 90년 초에는 영암방조제 공사들을 무리없이 성공시켰고, 독자적인 기술 개발이 촉진되어 1994년 1월에는 세계 간척사상 유출입 조석량이 가장 큰(9억m$^3$로 그간 우리나라 및 화란에서 시행하였던 큰 규모는 약 3~억 m$^3$ 내외임) 시화 방조제 끝막이 공사를 우리 나라가 개발한 구조와 공법으로 성공시켰으며, 이에 힘입어 유출입 조석량이 18억m$^3$인 새만금 간척 공사를 독자적인 우리 기술에 의해 계획대로 시행되고 있는 현시점에서 그간 우리 나라의 간척 기술개발 사항은 물론, 간척 사업 .전반적인 사항을 요약하였고, 세계 각국의 간척 사업과도 비교하여 우리나라 간척 사업에 대한 현주소를 여기에 소개한다.

In this study, the consolidation behavior of clayey ground improved by vertical drain method was analyzed by the finite difference method based on the three-dimensional elasto-viscous consolidation theory, which can express the behavior of the secondary consolidation without considering the distinction of the normally consolidated and overconsolidated states. And the applicability of the elasto-viscous consolidation theory was discussed by comparing with the test results obtained from the model test of ground improved by vertical drain system. From these results, it is found that the amount of the settlement when the excess pore water pressure almost dissipated in the clay ground with vertical drains became smaller than that of the one-dimensional condition, and then the amount and rate of the residual settlement at secondary consolidation process became larger than those of the one-dimensional condition. finally, the effect of soil parameter on behavior of consolidation process was investigated by the results of a series of numerical analysis for the normalized and overconsoldiated states.

The soil on the behavior of the nonlinear elastic work-hardening plasticity has a variety of stress paths due to the state of soil and the test conditions. The soil with a specific volume ${\upsilon}$ in principal stress space (${\sigma}_1$, ${\sigma}_2$, ${\sigma}_3$, and ${\upsilon}$v) displays the shape of an irregular hexagonal pyramid with an end cap. With variations of ${\upsilon}$ the size of the cap is changed but its shape remains unchanged and the movement of the cap is controlled by the increase or decrease of the plastic volumetric strain. By reflecting such a property of soil various cap models have been developed by researchers. In this thesis, a constitutive model of soil with a combination of the nonlinear elastic work-hardening plastic cap and the failure surfaces of Mohr-Coulomb (M-C cap model) has been developed. According to the the results of analyses using the work-hardening plastic cap model, the normally consolidated soil under shearing has experienced the work-hardening and plastic flow (movement of the cap). But in the shearing of the overconsolidated soil the elastic behavior is shown until the stress path has reached the failure surface and the cap does not move.
