For quality control and the economical design of grouted sand, the prior establishment of the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) estimating formula is very important. This study aims to develop an empirical UCS estimating formula for grouted sand based on the physical properties of sands and the UCS of cured pure grout. Four sands with varying particle sizes were grouted with both microfine cement and Ordinary Portland cement. Grouted specimens were prepared at three different relative densities and at three different water-to-cement ratios, and unconfined compression tests were performed. The results demonstrate that UCS of grouted sand can be expressed as the power function of the UCS of cured pure grout: $UCS_{grouted\;sand}/1MPa=A_{soil}{\cdot}(UCS_{pure}/1MPa)^N$. Because the exponent N strongly depends on the combination of pore area and pore size, N is expressed as the function of porosity (n) and specific surface ($S_a$). Additionally, because $S_a$ determines the area of the sand particle that cement particles can adsorb and n determines the number of cementation bondings between sand particles, $A_{soil}$ is also expressed as the function of n and $S_a$. Finally, the direct relationship between $A_{soil}$ and N is also investigated.

지하구조물에 있어서 누수사고의 빈번한 발생 및 상습화 경향에도 불구하고 현재 국내에서 사용되고 있는 누수보수방법은 누수유형에 관계없이 일괄적으로 동일한 처리방식으로 보수하는 상황으로서 지하구조물 누수에 대하여 누수 유형별로 보수방법을 달리하는 적극적인 해결방안의 모색이 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 지하구조물의 누수보수에 있어서 방수 그라우트재의 공학적 특성을 파악하고 현장상황에 적합한 방수그라우팅 기법을 수립하여 누수유형별로 적용한 사례를 중심으로 적용성을 고찰하였다. 방수그라우팅 적용사례를 분석한 결과 지하구조물의 누수방지를 위하여 누수상황 및 누수유형에 따라 주입재의 배합비를 적절히 변화시켜 주입재와 현장상황에 적합한 방수그라우팅 기법을 병행 적용하는 것이 확실한 방수효과를 얻을 수 있으며, 주입목표구간에 대해 단계적으로 수회로 나누어 순차적인 그라우팅과 가능한 한 저압, 소량, 장시간에 걸쳐 주입하는 것이 방수그라우팅 효과를 증대시킬 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 현장 적용결과로부터 기존 방수이론의 영향요소에 추가하여 물시멘트비, 주입재의 입경, 주입시간 및 주입량, 혼화재 사용여부, 주입차수 등에 대한 다양한 영향요소의 검토가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, as the demand for sustainable energy sources is increasing, ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems are receiving growing attention. However, the initial cost of GSHP system is higher than it of the conventional systems, especially, in small-size buildings. Therefore, for the application to the small-size building, it is necessary to develop small-size ground heat exchanger with small-size buildings. In this study, analysis of unit-type heat exchanger due to grouting materials. As a result, 1492.14 W of heat exchange rate was acquired in the condition of cement-silica sand-graphite materials.

This study had propose that a characteristic of recently developed Silicasol to make a close in this study, grouting material usually used portland cement and a characteristic is compared between Silicasol and sodium silicate in this study, examined strength and environmentally friendly for compare characteristics of sodium silicate and Silicasol through unconfined compressive strength, SEM analysis, Permeability test, Chemical Resistance test, leaching test etc. In the test, I gained that unconfined compressive strength of Silicasol three times promoted than sodium silicate Within 72 hours and I gined through analysis of SEM that Silicasol is more compactivetive than sodium silicate. In the result of test, it was found to be a environmentally friendly material as the toatal amount of eluviated elementary had small quantity.

As environmental problem in course of construction has been a matter of interest, noise and vibration in the process of piling are considered as a serious problem. For this reason, the use of SIP method inserting pile as soon as boring and cement grouting is rapidly increasing for preventing vibration and noise. But a resonable bearing capacity formula for SIP method does not exit and even the standard specification for domestic condition isn't formed, though the lateral friction between cement paste and the ground does an important role and boring depth largely influences to the design bearing capacity, applying the SIP method . Therefore, the lateral friction was analyzed after the direct shear test worked with the lateral face of SIP and the soil.

For the purpose of cut off and ground stabilization, water glass chemical grouting method using sodium silicate has problems of weakening durability and ground water pollution because leaching was conducted when the homogel is exposed to the ground water as time elapses. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of alkali silica sol ground injection materials, it was compared with the sodium silicate ground injection materials using water glasses. For sodium silicate and alkali silica sol by mixing each case is divided into four different specimens were made and tested. The characteristic of alkali silica sol ground injection material was analyzed by unconfined compression test and environmental impact statement of ordinary portland cement and blast furnace slag cement. Alkali silica sol specimens were made mixing A-solution and B-solution in the proportion of one on one. Through this study, alkali silica sol ground injection mixing blast furnace slag cement has excellent strength and environment-friendly.

In this study, an experiment on pullout capacity was conducted of rock bolts using grouting materials such as cement mortar and resin, which are widely used, and a newly proposed steel pipe friction type rock bolt using elastic restoring force, and the results were compared and analyzed. The experimental results showed that the pullout capacity on the rock bolts with cement mortar under a dry condition (no ground water) was relatively larger than the rock bolts with resin and the steel pipe. Nevertheless, the friction type steel pipe rock bolt to use elastic restoring force is expected to be useful in the field particularly where groundwater exists and it affects the loss and curing of grouting materials such as cement mortar or resin. In addition, it was found to have the advantage of being easy and quick to install.

This paper describes a study on the permeability reduction of the riverbed ground during urban railway tunnel construction. The research is mainly concentrated on the study of the grouting or injection methods among permeability reduction methods which can be adapted in the riverbed ground. The design technology of grouting methods considering the long term hydro-geological behaviour in the riverbed, was suggested. Two injection methods namely, Natural Durable Stabilizer (N.D.S) and Space-Multi Injection Grouting (S.M.I) methods, were introduced as new approach methods which could be adapted to modify the riverbed ground. In order to evaluate the performance of the improved ground by the N.D.S and S.M.I method, a series of pilot tests including the field and laboratory permeability tests, were carried out in the river crossing tunnel construction sites. The results obtained from pilot test program, were also reviewed. The results, the grouting efficiency of the S.M.I method using the non-alkalimeter silica sol is better than that of N.D.S method using cement. In addition, it is anticipated that the current research results are contributed to develop the grouting design technology.

Engineering properties of soils is studied by permeating injection of water-glass chemical grout by use of a large sized grouting equipment of 1.5 shot system. Furthermore, the effectiveness of chemical groutinig by taking water-glass chemical grout combined with portland-cement for the purpose of improving the soil strength is confirmed. Relationships between main factors which cause the effectiveness of chemical grouting are described, and the factors are velocity and temperature of flowing water; grain size distribution and density of soils; density, viscosity, gel time and volume of grouts; injection pressure and grouting process. Improvement of the effectiveness of chemical grouting in flowing water by preventing the dilution and flowing down of grouts is investigated. Moreover, local shear failures and upheaval phenomena of ground are also investigated by field measurement.
