Geotube is a tube made of geotextile and hydraulically filled with dredged soil. This technological method has been widely used in the advanced countries of the world to build the shore protection embankment. The dredged contaminated sediments from the lake, river, and harbor can be pumped into the geotube by using the hydraulic pump. So, environments effects can be minimized and enhanced by using this method. This paper presents a field test result of a geotube in the land reclamation project for the Songdo New City construction site. The dredged silty clay was dredged by the dredging ship and hydraulically pumped into the geotube. The height of geotube was measured at every filling stage and also measured width and diameter of geotube with the elapsed time. The unit weight of soil and undrained shear strength of filled soil in a tube were measured at the various locations and heights of geotube with the elapsed time. Geotube technique can be effectively implemented for the silty clayey soil with using the dredging ship.

Geotube is a tube made of permeable but soil-tight geotextile, hydraulically filled with soil include dredged sand and mud, which has been successfully applied in hydraulic and coastal engineering projects. This method is getting popular and used a lot in the advanced countries of the world because of economical, useful, and enable to store and isolate contaminated materials as obtained by harbor dredging. Laboratory and pilot scale in-situ tests were performed to determine the design methodology and construction procedures. From the results of laboratory and in-situ model tests, the retention ratio of solid particle is minimum 86% and minimum permeability and tensile strength of geotextile is ${\alpha}$${\times}$10$\^$-2/ and 20 t/m, respectively. Also, based on the environmental model test results, it can be concluded that this method does meet the Korean EPA standards.

Geotube is made of permeable but soil-tight geotextile, hydraulically filled with soil include dredged sand and mud, which has been successfully applied in hydraulic and coastal engineering projects. Ceotube method is getting popular and being used a lot in many countries of the world because of the simplicity of the placement and construction, cost effectiveness and minimum impact on the environment, and enable to store & isolate contaminated materials as obtained by harbor dredging. Laboratory tests and field construction were performed to determine the design methodology and construction procedures. From the results of laboratory and field construction, the retention ratio of solid particle is a minimum 86%. The minimum permeability and the tensile strength of geotextile are $\alpha$ x 10$^{-4}$ cm/sec and 20t/m, respectively Also, based on the environmental test results, it can be concluded that this method does meet the Korean EPA standards.

Geotextile container method is an environment-friendly construction method that is utilized to build up a breakwater and an underwater embankment, etc. using geotextile container, which is producted by filling the geotextile bag with sand or dredged materials. Geotextile containers are divided into geobags, geotubes and geocontainers based on their size and production method. In recent years, the number of application for the geotextile container method is rapidly increasing in the world, and the development of the effective construction method is focused. In this study, the application and the achievement of the geotextile container method will be introduced, and the practical construction examples and the trend of technology development in foreign country will be discussed.

An approach section on an abutment is located between the soil embankment and the structure, which may cause an uneven surface due to different settlement between the abutment and the soil embankment. This study proposes a new type of wall which separates the abutment from the backfill material using mechanically stabilized wall. A new type of keystone which incorporates geotube and wire mesh is proposed and evaluated. Numerical analyses were performed to investigate the applicability of the proposed keystone type, which incorporates Geosynthetic. The maximum horizontal displacements along GRS wall faces, settlements at the top of pavement and track bed, and tensile forces applied on geotextiles under traffic loads were investigated. The results of the numerical analysis showed that the proposed wall can be used for highway and high-speed railway abutment.

지오튜브 공법은 해안지역 해안선 침식방지와 준설토 매립 호안사면의 뒤채움 필터석 대체용으로도 널리 활용되고 있다. 본 연구는 지오텍스타일에 의해 보강되어 제작된 공시체를 현장 상태를 고려하여 등방 구속압력 10kPa, 50kPa, 100kPa 이하로 최소화하여 연직응력 재하 시 변형 거동을 파악하였다. 시험결과 공시체의 연직 변형율 7%까지는 구속압(≤100kPa)에 관계없이 지오텍스타일 조직의 이완에 따른 인장력이 발휘되는 초기 Strain Hardening 영향으로 응력-변위 거동은 동일하였다. 변형율 7%이상부터는 구속압력이 작은 공시체는 재하 시 변형이 커서 보강 지오텍스타일의 인장 저항력을 증가시키므로 Strain Hardening에 의해 파괴 시 축차응력은 상대적으로 증가하였다. 파괴 후는 급격하게 Strain Softening에 의해 취성파괴형태를 나타내면서 저하되었다. 이는 일반적인 삼축압축시험에서 셀 압이 증가되면서 전단응력도 크게 증가되는 현상과 다르다. 지오텍스타일 등방구속시험에서는 지오텍스타일의 인장변위가 일차적으로 영향을 받기 때문에 탄성계수를 급격하게 증가시키는 탄성 거동을 나타내고 있다.
