Fluid Confirmation Tests(FCT) on 1500 ground Anchors install in weathered rock were carried out to investigate upper and lower limit of elastic elongation, frictional resistant of fixed anchor body, mobilized angle between anchor body and soil. All the measured data were analysed and compared with theoretical equations. The frictional angles of diaphragm wall and anchorage system in weathered rock showed nonlinear curve between upper and lower limit of standard elongation. The FCT results indicated that the frictional resistant angles increased with higher values of surcharge load. The quality assurance on the fixed anchor location was investigated by means of measuring elastic elongation during the FCT, and comparing these with theoretical design length, the quality of anchors in this particular site found to be above average standard. The results of this research works with provide valuable guide line on quality assurance of anchors system as well as resonable prediction of friction resistance between the fixed anchor body and the weathered rock.

The most soil anchor works have been concerned with the uplift problem on embedded in non-reinforced soils under pullout test. Symmetrical anchor plates are a foundation system that can be resisting tensile load with the support of around soil in which symmetrical anchor plate is embedded. Engineers and authors proved that the uplift response can be improved by grouping the symmetrical anchor plates, increasing the unit weight, embedment ratio and the size of symmetrical anchor plates. Innovation of geosynthetics in the field of geotechnical engineering as reinforcement materials found to be possible solution in symmetrical anchor plate responses. Unfortunately the importance of reinforcement in submergence has received very little attention by researchers. In this paper, provision of tensile reinforcement under embedded conditions has been studied through uplift experiments on symmetrical anchor plates by few researchers. From the test results it has been showed that the provision of geogrid reinforcement system enhances the uplift response substantially under uplift test although other results are such as increase the ultimate uplift response of symmetrical anchor plate embedded using geosynthetic and Grid Fixed Reinforced (GFR) and symmetrical anchor plate improvement is very dependent on geosynthetic layer length and increases significantly until the amount of beyond that further increase in the layer length does not show a significant contribution in the anchor response.

Ground anchor method is widely used in the large scale deep excavation of urban area to support a retained wall. Excavation using the ground anchor as a supporting system near a building have many difficulties due to the limitation of construction space. This method can not be applied to the site with the insufficient space from the retained wall to the boundary line. In this case, soil improvement at the anchor bond zone can be used to secure the frictional resistance of ground anchor within the boundary. Through this method, the bond length of anchor can be shortened considerably. This paper deals with the case study on the ground excavation adjacent to a building. The object field is Yongsan Park Tower Construction Site. In this site, the enlarged anchor with soil improvement was applied to solve the problem due to the limitation of construction space. According to the results of field test and monitoring, the anchor with soil improvement is very effective to secure the frictional resistance at the anchor bond zone.

A specially designed tendon, which is proposed by embedding an FBG sensor into the center king cable of a 7-wire strand tendon, was applied to monitor the prestress force and load transfer of ground anchor. A series of tensile tests and a model pullout test were performed to verify the feasibility of the proposed smart tendon as a measuring sensor of tension force and load transfer along the tendon. The smart tendon has proven to be very effective for monitoring prestress force and load transfer by measuring the strain change of the tendon at the free part and the fixed part of ground anchor, respectively. Two 11.5 m long proto-type ground anchors were made simply by replacing a tendon with the proposed smart tendon and prestress forces of each anchor were monitored during the loading-unloading step using both FBG sensor embedded in the smart tendon and the conventional load cell. By comparing the prestress forces measured by the smart tendon and load cell, it was found that the prestress force monitored from the FBG sensor located at the free part is comparable to that measured from the conventional load cell. Furthermore, the load transfer of prestressing force at the tendon-grout interface was clearly measured from the FBGs distributed along the fixed part. From these pullout tests, the proposed smart tendon is not only expected to be an alternative monitoring tool for measuring prestress force from the introducing stage to the long-term period for health monitoring of the ground anchor but also can be used to improve design practice through determining the economic fixed length by practically measuring the load transfer depth.

지반앵커의 정착장에 작용하는 정착응력 분포 특성은 매우 비선형적이며 공학적인 메카니즘이 비교적 복잡하기 때문에 다양한 지반조건 및 비선형적 주면전단거동을 구체적으로 모사하여 지반앵커를 설계하는데 어려움이 크다. 이런 한계로 인하여 현재 대부분의 관련 설계 기준서에는 편의상 정착장 전장에 걸쳐 일정한 주면전단응력분포를 가정하여 설계에 적용하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 인장형 앵커의 인발거동 특성을 분석하기 위하여 풍화토 지반조건을 대상으로 현장인발시험을 수행하였으며 이를 토대로 앵커 정착장의 주면전단거동을 정립하고, 정착장 거동특성을 비교적 간편하게 예측하기 위한 다중선형모델 및 이를 적용한 해석적 기법을 제안하였다. 현장시험결과와 해석적 결과가 상호 유사하게 나타남에 따라 본 연구에서 제시된 다중선형모델 및 이를 이용한 해석적 기법의 적용성 및 유효성을 확인할 수 있었다. 정착장 주면전단거동의 경우 최대인발하중 보다 작은 하중조건에서는 정착장 시작점에서 최대전단응력이 분포하게 되나 최대인발하중이 발생한 이후부터는 정착장 시작점에서 전단응력이 가장 작게 분포하고, 정착장 시작점으로부터 일정거리 이격된 지점에서 최대전단응력이 발생함을 확인하였다.

The ground anchor used in domestic area, which resists by adhesion between anchor body and the ground to the external force, seems not to be adequate for soft ground and urban area where the boundary between structures is close because the ground is disturbed and lost its strength during boring. In order to overcome such a shortcoming an expanded anchor system has been developed. The ground expansion is accomplished by means of Pulse Discharge Technology. In this technology, a high voltage of electricity is stored and discharged in milliseconds which induces high pressure acting on the ground. By making a couple of bulbs, a passive resistance as well as shaft resistance are mobilized, and therefore a higher pullout resistance comparing existing ground anchors is developed.In this study, a couple of full scale tests were conducted in order to figure out how much the resistance of an expanded anchor increases comparing to the straight. As a result, it was found that a remarkable increase in ultimate pullout capacity is observed for the soft ground and as the number of bulb increases. In addtion, as a result of applying to a cut slope reinforcement, it appeared that the length of fixed zone of anchor can be reduced effectively.

본 논문에서는 국내 몇몇 시험현장에서 수행한 총 54회 단일앵커시험과 4회 실규모 앵커기초에 대한 결과를 제시하였다. 시험결과, 암반앵커의 인발에 대한 파괴메커니즘은 암종 및 암질, 근입깊이, 불연속면의 특성, 텐던의 강도 등에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 불량한 암반내 얕은 앵커의 경우(정착심도 1.0m 이하) 대부분 그라우트-암반 부착파괴로 나타났으나 이러한 경우에도 깊이를 증가시키면 암반파괴를 유도할 수 있다. 반면에, 얕은 앵커기초라 하더라도 암반상태가 좋으면 부착파괴가 아닌 암반파괴의 형태를 보인다. 한편 실내부착강도 시험결과는 표면부터 진행성파괴가 나타나며 점차 아래로 전파된다. 이때 측정된 텐던-그라우트 부착강도는 그라우트 일축압축강도의 약 $18{\sim}25%$로 나타났으며, 방식 쉬이스로 인한 부착강도의 감소는 보이지 않았다. 연구결과로부터 암반앵커시스템의 인발지지력을 지배하는 주요 파라메터를 결정하고 적용 암반의 분류기준을 제시하였으며, 최종적으로 인발에 대한 암반앵커기초의 지지력을 평가할 수 있는 간편화된 절차를 제안하였다.

Prestressed ground anchors are important structural elements in geotechnical engineering. Despite their widespread usage, the design process is often significantly simplified. One of the major drawbacks of commonly used design methods is the assumption that skin friction is mobilized uniformly along an anchor's fixed length, one consequence of which is that a progressive failure phenomenon is neglected. The following paper introduces an alternative design approach - a computer algorithm employing the load-transfer method. The method is modified for the analysis of anchors and combined with a procedure for the derivation of load-transfer functions based on commonly available laboratory tests. The load-transfer function is divided into a pre-failure (hardening) and a post-failure (softening) segment. In this way, an aspect of non-linear stress-strain soil behavior is incorporated into the algorithm. The influence of post-grouting in terms of radial stress update, diameter enlargement, and grout consolidation is included. The axial stiffness of the anchor body is not held constant. Instead, it gradually decreases as a direct consequence of tensile cracks spreading in the grout material. An analysis of the program's operation is performed via a series of parametric studies in which the influence of governing parameters is investigated. Finally, two case studies concerning three investigation anchor load tests are presented.

The ground anchoring has been utilized over 40 years. It is growing the application of the removal ground anchor with tension force for holding earth retaining constructions in the city. It transmits tension stress of prestressed steel wire through grouting to fixed the ground that is of great advantage adjacent ground stability. Nowadays, we can find the compression dispersion anchor on many site. But, it has some problems in behavior of anchors because of impossible to tense p.c strand uniformly under the existing equipment due to different length of p c strand. Hence, motive of this research was to study the application of the newly developed tension system, that analyze and compare with the current anchoring method build on the data of in-site test and laboratory test. As a result, in case of auto back tension system, it became clear that tension pressure was equally distributed among the steal wires but the existing tension system showed sign of instability by indicating stress deflection of about 30% compare with design load. This can cause an ultimate failure of the concentrated p.c strand and a shear failure of ground.
