PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of size and depth of cavities on the pavement failure using the full-scale accelerated pavement testing. METHODS : A full-scale testbed was constructed by installing the artificial cavities at a depth of 0.3 m and 0.7 m from the pavement surface for accelerated pavement testing. The cavities were made of ice with a dimension of 0.5 m*0.5m*0.3m, and the thickness of asphalt and base layer were 0.2 m and 0.3 m, respectively. The ground penetrating radar and endoscope testing were conducted to determine the shape and location of cavities. The falling weight deflectometer testing was also performed on the cavity and intact sections to estimate the difference of structural capacity between the two sections. A wheel loading of 80 kN was applied on the pavement section with a speed of 10 km/h in accelerated pavement testing. The permanent deformation was measured periodically at a given number of repetitions. The correlation between the depth and size of cavities and pavement failure was investigated using the accelerated pavement testing results. RESULTS : It is found from FWD testing that the center deflection of cavity section is 10% greater than that of the intact section, indicating the 25% reduction of modulus in subbase layer due to the occurrence of the cavity. The measured permanent deformation of the intact section is approximately 10 mm at 90,000 load repetitions. However, for a cavity section of 0.7 m depth, a permanent deformation of 30 mm was measured at 90,000 load repetitions, which is three times greater than that of the intact section. At cavity section of 0.3 m, the permanent deformation reached up to approximately 90 mm and an elliptical hole occurred at pavement surface after testing. CONCLUSIONS : This study is aimed at determining the pavement failure mechanism due to the occurrence of cavities under the pavement using accelerated pavement testing. In the future, the accelerated pavement testing will be conducted at a pavement section with different depths and sizes of cavities. Test results will be utilized to establish the criteria of risk in road collapse based on the various conditions.

도심지가 고도화되고 지상 공간이 포화됨에 따라 지하공간 개발 및 활용이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이와 동시에 지반함몰 현상, 각종 지하공간 사고 등으로 시민들의 안전이 위협받고 있다. 지반함몰을 방지하기 위하여 지하에 발생한 공동을 탐지하고 공동등급을 설정하여 공동복구 순서 및 위험도를 평가해야 한다. 기존의 일본 간선도로 공동관리 등급은 일본 현지의 기준을 대상으로 하여 국내 지반실정에 적용하기가 적합하지 않다. 최근 국내 실정에 맞게 서울형에서 공동관리 등급이 개발되었으며, 도로 하부지반 및 아스콘 포장층의 상태 등을 추가로 고려하여 공동의 등급을 지정하였다. 본 연구에서는 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$지역를 대상으로 209개의 공동을 탐사하고, 공동 등급에 따른 공동의 형상을 분석하였다. 또한 일본의 간선도로 공동관리 등급과 새롭게 개발된 서울형 공동관리 등급으로 분류된 결과를 상호 비교하였다. 비교 분석 결과, 일본 간선도로 공동관리 등급기준으로 긴급복구로 분류되 공동들은 상당히 보수적으로 평가되었으며, 이는 일본의 기준이 도로 포장층 두께를 고려하지 않고, 공동의 폭과 토피만을 고려하였기 때문이다.
