FBG Sensor, which is smaller than strain gauge and has better durability and does not have a noise from electromagnetic waves, was adapted to develope a smart anchor. A series of pullout tests were performed to verify the feasibility of smart anchor and find out the load transfer mechanism around the steel wire fixed to rock with grout. Distribution of shear stresses at steel wire-grout interface is assessed from the measured strain distribution by the optical fiber sensors and compared with stress distributions predicted by Farmer's and Aydan's formulas. It was found that present theoretical formulas may underestimate the failure depth and magnitude of shear stresses when the pullout loads increase.

Full scale size model tests of the top-base foundation was performed in siwha marine clay and the site measurement results were compared with the analytical results from finite different programs, FLAC-2D to investigate the behavior of top-base foundation. The stress distribution obtained from the numerical analysis for the various types of foundation were compared and analysed during the application of allowable load as well as yield load. It was found that the top-base foundation prevents the lateral deformation of soft ground and stress dispersion effect to reduce the surface settlement, and that the foundation creates uniform stress distribution around it, therefore increasing bearing capacity.

The asphalt waste has been collected more than ten thousands' ton from repairing works on the road and excavation repair works, most of them are disposed on land of reclamation. Only a few percentage of wasted asphalt recycled to new one. Therefore, In this study, usage of wasted asphalt and has been done engineered characteristic test for recycling materials of sub-grade and structure. To know the characteristic of asphalt waste, tamping test, bearing-ratio test, permeability test and direct shear test was done using asphalt-sand mixture. The test results shows that, mixed asphalt materials with sand can be used for materials of subgrade-soil and structure.

This paper concerns the development of a IT-based pile design system within the framework of geographic information system(GIS). The system is aimed at expediting a routine pile design works such as determination of pile length and stability analysis of the selected pile. The detailed system development process and functions of sub modules are provided in this paper.

In this study, through dissipation test of DMT predicted Horizontal Coefficient of Consolidation at marine clay. CPTu Dissipation test, laboratory consolidation test compared with $C_v$, through it examined application. The result, DMT calculated horizontal coefficient of consolidation by $P_2$-Log(t) method of DMT-A method and C-$\surd$t(min) method. This horizontal coefficient of consolidation calculated larger than $P_2$-Log(t) method. $P_2$-Log(t) method of DMT, Torstensson of CPTu and Houlsby & Teh(1991) appeared similar to tend. This approximate value is possible application in marine clay. It'll need to study continuously through collection of data.

In order to analysis the reason of sliding failure in embankment slope under construction in soft soil area, a model section located in Gimhae Region in Gyeongsangnam-Do, where the sliding failure had been occurred during embankment works in soft soil area, had been selected. This area had been firstly treated with the Pack Drain Method, and additional embankment works of 9.7 meters out of total 14 meters in thickness had been under construction. The results of analysis showed that the reason of sliding failure were overspeed in embankment construction and the overestimation of design factors in calculating strength of each layer of embankment and poor management and inaccuracy reading of measurement devices.

In this study, new parameter related with compression index was derivated from piezocone test results. It is assumed that the consolidation coefficient obtained by piezocone test is concerned with the volume change during piezocone dissipation. Based on that assumption, new parameter in terms of consolidation coefficient from piezocone test was introduced. The new parameter from piezocone test and the compression index from laboratory consolidation test shows linear relationship.

This paper presents the results of investigation on the influencing factors for GESC(Geogrid-Encased Stone Column) method in soft ground. A parametric study was then conducted on the influencing factors such as replacement ratio, geogrid stiffness and thickness of soft ground using stress-porepressure coupled analysis. The results indicate that the relationship between these parameters and settlement ratio, and the relationship between these parameters and stress concentration factor can be identified.

In general, it is considered that a pillar between closely-spaced tunnel is sensitive for stress concentration. Stability of a pillar is key factor for excavation of closely-spaced tunnel. In this paper, the study is focused on tracing the behaviors, displacement and plotting damages around tunnels that is modelled with Particle Flow Code, $PFC^{2D}$. Parametric study was performed with changing distance between center of tunnels and coefficient of earth pressure(K). Scaled-model tests were also carried out to validate a numerical analysis model. It was found that $PFC^{2D}$ could show dynamic visualized result in quite good agreement with the experimental test.

The pressurized grouting soil nailing method using rubber membrane packer system was developed for recycling materials to minimize environmental pollution and reducing construction costs. For this purpose, field pull-out tests were performed to evaluate the characteristics of soil nailing by measuring tensile stresses and axial displacements.
