비교적 얕은 깊이에서 터널을 착굴하거나 개착을 하늘 경우, 열변지반에 침하 및 수평이동 등의 변위가 발생하게 된다. 이러한 변위는 주변 구조물의 안정에 큰 영향을 미치며, 심한 경우 주변 구조물이 파괴되는 상태에 까지 이른다. 인구가 밀집된 대도시에 지하철을 시공할 경우, 주변 문화재, 고층건물, 상하수도관, 가스관 등의 안정을 지하철 설계시 고려하여야 하므로 터널굴착에 따른 지반변위의 예측과 자세한 침하의 원인이 규명되어야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 지반 침하량 및 침하발생 영역을 예상하거나 침하요인을 파악하기 위하여 부산지하철 NATM회간의 지표면 침하, 지표면 수평변위, 지중침하, 천단침하 들에 관한 측정 분석이 이루어졌다. 그 결과, 횡방향 지표면 침하는 Gaussian normal probability curve, 종방향 지표면 심하하는 cumulative Gaussian probability curve로서 해석이 가능하다는 것과 가인버어트의 조기폐합이 침하량 감소에 큰 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

A new type of soft ground breakwater was recently developed, which does not need ground improvement because of light weight and structural characteristics. The various studies about consolidation settlements and lateral behavior of proposed soft ground breakwater have been conducted. But, the systematic investigations on the construction performance and long-term settlements of new type breakwater has not been accomplished. In this study, construction simulation of soft ground breakwater with soil box model test and experiments of the long-term wave loaded breakwater were performed. The results of test shows that it is possible to compensate differential settlements by dead loading and/or suction pressure, and to reduce the consolidation settlements by preloading method. It was also found that the vertical and lateral displacements of long-term wave loaded breakwater were negligible.

Tunnel excavation leads to a disturbance on the initial stress balance of surrounding soils, which causes convergences around the tunnel and settlements at the ground surface. Considering the effective impact of settlements on the structures at the surface, it is necessary to estimate them, especially in urban areas. In the present study, ground settlements due to the excavation of East-West Line 7 of the Tehran Metro (EWL7) and the Abuzar tunnels are evaluated and the effect of the lateral earth pressure coefficient ($K_0$) on their extension is investigated. The excavation of the tunnels was performed by TBMs (Tunnel Boring Machines). The coefficient of lateral earth pressure ($K_0$) is one of the most important geotechnical parameters for tunnel design and is greatly influenced by the geological characteristics of the surrounding soil mass along the tunnel route. The real (in-situ) settlements of the ground surface were measured experimentally using leveling methods along the studied tunnels and the results were compared with evaluated settlements obtained from both semi-empirical and numerical methods (using the finite difference software FLAC3D). The comparisons permitted to show that the adopted numerical models can effectively be used to predict settlements induced by a tunnel excavation. Then a numerical parametric study was conducted to show the influence of the $K_0$ values on the ground settlements. Numerical investigations also showed that the shapes of settlement trough of the studied tunnels, in a transverse section, are not similar because of their different diameters and depths of the tunnels.

Ground settlements and pore pressure changes were monitored around a shallow tunnel constructed in clay till during the excavation and primary lining installation. The settlements above the tunnel continued to develop for up to 100 days after the primary lining installation. Triaxial compression tests were carried out to estimate the short-term and long-term deformation characteristics of the till. Numerical simulation was conducted to history match the field measurements, and thus, to quantify the settlements induced by ground stress relief, consolidation and creep. It was found that the surface settlements due to ground stress relief, consolidation and creep are 17, 12 and 71% of total settlement (about 44 mm), respectively. In addition, early installation of rigid concrete lining could be an effective means to reduce the settlement due to creep.

This paper investigates the effects of micro-tunneling on buried pipelines parametrically. A simplified numerical approach was developed and various parametric studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of ground settlements on the response of buried pipelines. The controlled parameters included the pipe stiffness, ground loss magnitude, and pipe location with respect to a micro-tunnel. Maximum settlement and curvature along a pipeline have been investigated and compared among others for different conditions. In addition, the numerical results have been compared with a theoretical method by Attewell et al. (1986), which is based on a Winkler type linear-elastic solution. The comparison indicated that the response of buried pipes to micro-tunneling-induced ground settlements highly depends on the soil-pipe interaction including the separation and slippage of pipe from soil with the effects of the investigated parameters. Therefore, rather than using the theoretical method directly, it would be a better assessment of the response of buried pipelines to consider the soil-pipe interaction in more realistic conditions.

In the current work, a series of three-dimensional finite element analyses have been conducted to investigate the behaviour of pre-existing single piles in response to adjacent tunnelling by considering the tunnel face pressures and the relative locations of the pile tips with respect to the tunnel. Via numerical modelling, the effect of the face pressures on the pile behaviour has been analysed. In addition, the analyses have concentrated on the ground settlements, the pile head settlements and the shear stress transfer mechanism at the pile-soil interface. The settlements of the pile directly above the tunnel crown (with a vertical distance between the pile tip and the tunnel crown of 0.25D, where D is the tunnel diameter) with a face pressure of 50% of the in situ horizontal soil stress at the tunnel springline decreased by approximately 38% compared to the corresponding pile settlements with the minimum face pressure, namely, 25% of the in situ horizontal soil stress at the tunnel springline. Furthermore, the smaller the face pressure is, the larger the tunnelling-induced ground movements, the axial pile forces and the interface shear stresses. The ground settlements and the pile settlements were heavily affected by the face pressures and the positions of the pile tip with respect to the tunnel. When the piles were inside the tunnel influence zone, tensile forces were induced on piles, while compressive pile forces were expected to develop for piles that are outside the influence zone and on the boundary. In addition, the computed results have been compared with relevant previous studies that were reported in the literature. The behaviour of the piles that is triggered by adjacent tunnelling has been extensively examined and analysed by considering the several key features in substantial detail.

Tunnel excavation in shallow soft ground conditions of urban areas experiences inevitable surface settlements that threaten the stability of nearby infrastructures. Surface settlements during shield TBM tunneling are related to a number of factors including geotechnical conditions, tunnel geometry and excavation methods. In this paper, a database collected from a construction section of Hong Kong subway was used to analyze the correlation of settlement-inducing factors and surface settlements monitored at different locations of a transverse trough. The Pearson correlation analysis result revealed a correlation between the factors in consideration. Factors such as the face pressure, advance speed, thrust force, cutter torque, twin tunnel distance and ground water level presented a modest correlation with the surface settlement, while no significant trends between the other factors and the surface settlements were observed. It can be concluded that an integrated effect of the settlement-inducing factors should be related to the magnitude of surface settlements.

본 연구에서는 소성변형 이론에 근거한 무라야마의 침하 산정식에 탄성변형을 반영시켜 사질토층의 터널 굴착에 따른 지반침하를 보다 간편하고 정확하게 예측할 수 있는 식을 제안하였다. 국내외 터널현장의 계측자료들의 분석결과로부터, 사질토지반의 침하는 지반의 체적변화와 밀접한 관계를 갖고있어 터널의 단순한 기하학적 제원만으로는 해석이 불가능하다는 사실을 밝혔으며, 제안식의 구성요소인 전단대 폭, t값이 현장조건에서는 무라야마의 실험실 관측치보다 2~6배 정도 큰 값으로 나타남도 밝혔다. 본 제안식의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 현장 실측결과와 무라야마 해석결과 및 탄소성 유한요소 해석결과 등과의 비교 분석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 본 제안식에 의한 계산치는 탄소성 해석결과 및 실측치 등과 매우 근사한 값을 나타내며, 무라야마 방법은 실제 터널현장의 지반 침하량을 과소 평가함을 알 수 있었다.

도심지에서의 대규모. 대심도 굴착공사가 빈번해짐에 따라서 굴착이 배면지반은 물론, 인접 구조물에 미치는 영향을 정확히 평가하는 것이 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 그러나 일상적으로 굴착의 영향을 평가할 때 구조물의 존재 유무에 관계없이 주위 지반 침하량을 산정하고 있는데 이는 옳지 않다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 굴착시 구조물이 토류벽체에 인접하여 놓여있는 경우에 각기 다른 지보강성과 벽면마찰각을 갖는 다양한 조건하에서 굴착으로 인한 주위 지반 및 구조물의 거동을 평가하기 위하여 구조물의 평면 및 단면상에서의 위치를 변화시켜가면서 모형실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과로부터 인접 구조물이 지표면에 위치할 경우에 이격거리가 굴착깊이의 0.3배 이내이면 구조물이 없을 때와 비교하여 최대 181%의 추가 침하가 발생하며, 1.0배 이상 떨어지면 구조물에 의한 추가적인 영향은 없다는 결론을 얻었다. 그리고 구조물 기초의 근입깊이가 깊어질수록 추가로 영향받는 영역이 줄어들고 기초의 근입깊이가 굴착깊이의 0.75배 이상이면 추가 침하는 거의 발생하지 않았다.
