This study discussed the optimal use of bentonite and cement for the compacted soil liner of landfill. Techniques employed in this optimization included permeability(by KSF 2322) and compressive strength(by KSF 2314). The optimal amount of these materials to the compacted soil liner was determined in accordance with a regulatory guideline of the government: that is, $k=1{\times}10^{-7}cm/sec$. The testing sods were CL(Clayey Soil) and SM(Sandy Soil), which were classified according to LSCS(Unifed Soil Classify System), The results showed that the optimal amounts of bentonite and cement to mix with the compacted CL soil liner were 5% of bentonite and 5% of cement : namely, $k=9.98{\times}10^{-8}cm/sec$ and ${\sigma}_{28}=1275kg/cm^2$. For the compacted SM soil liner. the optimal amount of bentonite was 15%, in conjunction with 5% of cement : namely, $k=9.86{\times}10^{-8}cm/sec$ and ${\sigma}_{28}=18.72kg/cm^2$. It was concluded that the compacted CL or SM soil liner, with containing the optimal amounts of bentonite and cement showed the acceptable permeability and the compressive strength, referring to a regulatory guideline of the government for construction of the landfill.

This paper presents the modeling of geosynthetic-reinforced soils and discusses the reinforcement effect arising from confining the dilatancy deformation of the soil by geosynthetics. A series of compressive shear tests for compacted sandy soil specimens wrapped by geosynthetics are carried out by quantitatively examining the geosynthetic-reinforcement effect, and it occurred from the confinement of the dilative deformation of compacted soils during shearing. In the test, the initial degree of compaction is changed for each series of sandy soil specimens so that each series has different degree of dilatancy characteristics. Herein, the axial forces working to the geosynthetics so as to prevent dilative deformation of compacted soils during shearing are measured. Furthermore, the elasto-plastic modeling of compacted soils and a rational determination procedure of input parameters needed in the elasto-plastic modeling are presented. In this paper, the subloading yielding surface(Hashiguchi(1989)) is introduced to the elasto-plastic modeling which could describe the irreversible deformation characteristics of compacted soils during shearing. Finally, the elasto-plastic finite element simulation is carried out and the geosynthetic-reinforcement effect is discussed.

Resilient modulus tests were performed on five cohesive soils sampled from in -service subgrades and three cohesive soils compacted in the laboratory. It was concluded that in service resilient modulus can not be estimated from the resilient modulus of laboratory specimen compacted at same water content and dry density as in -service condition. The stress at 1 percent axial strain in unconfined compression tests ($Su_{1.0%}$) was found as a good indicator of the resilient modules ($M_R$), and the unique relationship between MR and $Su_{1.0%}$ was obtained. This relationship for the laboratory compacted soil is slightly different from that for the field compacted soil and the difference is less pronounced at the confining stress level expected to exist in subgrade. A proposed relationship itself is not affected by the changes in subgrade after construction and, therefore, it is applicable to as compacted and in service subgrade conditions.

Dynamic shear modulus of the compacted clayey soil was determined by the resonant column test to study the parametric effects of confining pressure, shear strain amplitude, molding water content, compaction energy, void ratio and the degree of saturation. The effect of each of these parameters on the dynamic shear modulus found to be significant and can be explained in terms of the changes in soil by compaction. Dynamic shear modulus of the compacted soil is increased significantly by compaction and compaction at the dry side of the optimum moisture content is much more effective. It is also found that the dynamic shear modulus showes a good correlation to the static shear strength of the compacted soil. Therefore the dynamic shear modulus of the compacted soil for a certain confining pressure may be obtained ea8i1y from the unconfined compression strength.

The three-dimensional strength behavior of compacted decomposed granite soil was studied using cubical triaxial tests with independent control of the three principal stresses. All specimens were loaded under conditions of principal stress direction fixed and aligned with the directions of compacted plane. For comparable test conditions, the major principal strain and volume strain to failure were smallest when the major principal stress acted perpendicular to the compacted plane. The opposite extremes were obtained when the major principal stress acted parallel to the compacted plane. In cubical triaxial tests with same b values and with ${\theta}$ values in one of three sectors of the octahedral plane, independent of the range of ${\theta}$, higher friction angles are obtained in tests with b greater than in triaxial compression tests in which b 0.0, Comparison between the results of the drained cubical triaxial tests on lksan compacted decomposed granite soil and the cross section of the Mohr-Coulomb failure surface as well as the cross section of the Mohr-Coulomb failure surface were made. Lade's isotropic failure criterion based on vertical specimens overestimates the strengths for tests performed with values of 0 between 90˚ and 1 50˚ the Mohr-Coulomb criterion generally underestimates the strengths of tests performed with values of ${\theta}$ between $0^{\circ}$ and $180^{\circ}$ except around the $120^{\circ}$.

The aims of this study are to evaluate the application on the stress-strain behavior of granite Soil using Lade's double work hardening constitutive model based on the theories of elasticity and plasticity. From two different sites of construction work, two disturbed and compacted weathered granite samples which are different in partical size and degree of weathering respectively were obtained. The specimen employed were sampled at Iksan and Pochon in order to predict the constitutive model. Using the computer program based on the regression analysis, 11 soil parameters for the model were determined from the simple tests such as an isotropic compression-expansion test and a series of drained conventional triaxial tests. In conclusion, it is shown that Lade's double work hardening model gives the good applicability for processing of stress-strain, work-hardening, work-softening and soil dilatancy. Therefore, this model in its present form is applicable to the compacted decomposed granite soil.

Tow constitutive models for weathered granite soil, Yasufuku's constitutive model with a single yield surface and Lade's constitutive model with two intersectiong yield surface compared in terms of their capabilities to accurately capture the observed behavior of compacted weathered grainite soil for various stress-paths. Both the single surface and the double surface models capture the experimentally observed behavior at a variety of stress-paths with good accuracy. The double surface model may model the observed compacted weathered granite soil behavior with better accuracy for proportational loading with increasing stress, but the single surface model may model dilatancy property with better accuracy for p-constant loading with increasing stress ratio.

This paper deals with a case study on a unique slope failure in a liner system of a municipal solid waste containment facility during construction because the sliding interface is not the geomembrane/compacted low permeability soil liner (LPSL) but a soil/soil interface within the LPSL. From the case study, it is concluded that compaction of the LPSL should ensure that each lift is kneaded into the lower lift so a weak interface is not created in the LPSL, and the LPSL moisture content should be controlled so it does not exceed the specified value, .e.g., 3% - 4% wet of optimum, because it can lead to a weak interface in the LPSL. In addition, drainage materials should be placed over the geomembrane from the slope toe to the top to reduce the shear stresses applied to the weakest interface, and equipment should not move laterally across the slope if it is unsupported but along the slope while placing the cover soil from bottom to top.

A series of triaxial compression tests were performed on samples of compacted granite soil in a modified triaxial cell that allowed separate control of pore air pressure ($U_a$) and pore water pressure ($U_w$) in order to examine the characteristics of pore pressure, volume change and stress-strain behavior during undrained loading conditions. Triaxial samples of unsaturated and saturated compacted granite soil, 50mm in diameter and 100mm in height, were prepared by compaction in a mould. These samples were tested at 3 different suction values (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 kgf/cm$^2$) for unsaturated compacted granite soil and at 3 different confining stresses (1.0, 2.0, 4.0 kgf/cm$^2$). Results showed that only effective cohesion increased with little variation of friction angle, according to matric suction.
