The shear strength of jointed rock is influenced by effective normal stress, joint wall compressive strength, joint roughness and so on. Since joint roughness makes considerable influences on shear strength of jointed rock, many studies tried to get quantitative joint roughness parameter. Until now, Joint Roughness Coefficient, JRC proposed by Barton has been prevalently used as a rock joint roughness parameter In spite of its disadvantages. In this study, a quantification of rock joint roughness is performed using surface roughness parameter, Rs. Proposed method is applied to rock core specimens, field joint surfaces, and JRC profiles. The scale of fluctuation is introduced to extend the suggested method to the large scale field joint surface roughness. Based on the quantification of joint surface roughness, joint shear tests are performed with the portable shear box. The relationship between joint surface roughness and joint shear strength is investigated and finally, a rock joint shear strength equation is derived from these results. The equation has considerable credibility and originality in that it is obtained from laboratory tests and expressed with quantified parameter.

Joint roughness is combination of primary and secondary roughness. Ordinarily primary roughness is a geostatistical part of a joint surface that has a periodic nature but secondary roughness or unevenness is a statistical part of that which have a random nature. Using roughness generating algorithms is a useful method for evaluation of joint roughness. In this paper after determining geostatistical parameters of the joint profile, were presented two roughness generating algorithms using Mount-Carlo method for evaluation of primary (GJRGAP) and secondary (GJRGAS) roughness. These based on geostatistical parameters (range and sill) and statistical parameters (standard deviation of asperities height, SDH, and standard deviation of asperities angle, SDA) for generation two-dimensional joint roughness profiles. In this study different geostatistical regions were defined depending on the range and SDH. As SDH increases, the height of the generated asperities increases and asperities become sharper and at a specific range (a specific curve) relation between SDH and SDA is linear. As the range in GJRGAP becomes larger (the base of the asperities) the shape of asperities becomes flatter. The results illustrate that joint profiles have larger SDA with increase of SDH and decrease of range. Consequencely increase of SDA leads to joint roughness parameters such Z2, Z3 and RP increases. The results showed that secondary roughness or unevenness has a great influence on roughness values. In general, it can be concluded that the shape and size of asperities are appropriate parameters to approach the field scale from the laboratory scale.

본 연구에서는 절리면 거칠기를 정량적으로 산출하기 위하여 표면 거칠기 계수, Rs를 이용한 측정방법을 제안하고, 이를 바탕으로 절리면 거칠기가 절리면 전단강도에 미치는 영향을 제시하였다. 제시된 Rs를 이용하여 새로운 절리면 전단강도 모델을 제안하였다. 연구 결과, 표면 거칠기 계수인 Rs는 암반의 절리면 거칠기를 정량적으로 표현할 수 있는 유용한 방법이 될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. Rs에 의한 암코아 규모의 절리면 거칠기 측정에는 최대 측정간격으로 2mm, 최소 측정 길이로 5cm가 적당하나, 이를 대규모의 현장 절리면에 확대 적용하기 위해서는 변동규모(scale of fluctuation), $\delta_u$를 도입하여야 한다. 절리면 거칠기가 작은 경우, 전단강도는 절리면에서의 미끄러짐으로 유발되었으나, 거친 절리면에서의 전단강도는 거칠기의 일부분이 파괴됨으로 인하여 발생됨을 알 수 있었다.

The behavior of rock mass and solute(e.g. groundwater, radioactivity) flow in fractured rock can be directly influenced by joint roughness. The characteristics of joint roughness is also a main factor for the rock classification(e.g. RMR, Q system) which is usually used in tunnel design. Nevertheless, most of JRC estimation has been carried out only by the examination with the naked eye. This JRC estimation has a lack of objectivity because each investigator judges JRC by his subjective opinion. Therefore, it will be desirable that the assessment of JRC is performed by a numerical analysis which can give a quantitative value corresponding to the characteristics of a roughness curve. Meanwhile, roughness curves for joint surfaces which are observed in drill cores have been obtained only along linear profiles. Although roughness curves are measured in the same joint surface, they can frequently show diverse aspects in a standpoint of roughness characteristics. If roughness curves can be measured along the elliptical circumferences of joint surfaces from core scanning images or Televiewer images, they will certainly be more comprehensive than those measured along linear profiles for roughness characteristics of joint surfaces. This study is focus on dealing with (1) extracting automatically roughness curves from core scan image or Televiewer image, (2) improving the accuracy of quantitative assessment of JRC using fractal dimension concept.

Direct shear tests were carried out on the rock joints and artificial discontinuities to investigate the influence of joint roughness on the shear strength and deformation behaviour. Single direct shear testing apparatus used in experiment was designed and manufactured. Its capacity is 200 tons of shear load, 20 tons of normal load and 50$\textrm{cm}^2$ of maximum shear area. Test samples were cement mortar with artificial discontinuity and sandstone with natural joint. Peak shear strength was increased as joint roughness or normal stress was increased, especially, linearly increased with roughness angle in cement mortar. If joint roughness angle was constant at low normal stress, shear strength was not affected by width and height of joint roughness in cement mortar. Peak shear strengths obtained from tests were larger than the values calculated by Barton's equation, and shear stiffness was increased with joint roughness coefficient.

The shear strength of rock discontinuities is very important in many rock engineering project including analysis of tunnel and slope. But shear strength of rock that acquired through discontinuity shear test is different from soil shear test and more complex. Shear strength is effected by the factors which are various, but it is the best influence of filling material and joint roughness. In this research, we studied shear strength characters of natural joint of phillite that was placed importance on joint roughness, JRC is less low than 8.

Underestimation of rock joint shear strength comes from an inadequate consideration of roughness mobilization behavior, which is changed by asperity size as well applied normal load. In this study, we performed rock joint shear tests, and studied the roughness mobilization characteristics related with the scale of normal stress and asperities. Test specimens with artificial triangular asperities were manufactured. The specimens consisted of 3 types, and each type represented unevenness, waviness and total roughness(superposition of unevenness and waviness). The experimental results show that the roughness mobilization characteristics are varied by the scale of normal stress and asperities. Furthermore, the investigation shows that the rate of geometrical component and mechanical component in the total roughness is also varied by the scale of normal stress and asperities. These results suggest that we should consider the roughness mobilization characteristics for the roughness quantification and the shear strength modelling.

절리면의 전단강도를 결정하는 중요한 인자로 알려진 암반 절리면의 거칠기는 여러 가지 방법에 의해 연구되어 왔다. 하지만, 거칠기를 구성하는 요소인 1차 거칠기와 2차 거칠기를 분리하여 거칠기를 평가하려는 시도는 매우 제한적으로 수행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 인장절리 시험편을 이용하여 직접전단시험을 통해 2차 거칠기 요소를 파괴하고 이를 거칠기 파라미터를 이용하여 정량화 하였다. 거칠기 파라미터는 수직응력과 측정 간격이 증가할수록 감소하였으나, 1.5 MPa 이상의 수직응력에서는 일정한 경향을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 전단 반대방향의 거칠기 면적 감소율은 거칠기 파라미터가 증가할수록 감소하였다.

카메라 방식의 3D 스캐너로부터 구한 암석 절리면의 거칠기를 만곡과 요철의 거칠기 성분으로 구분하였다. 거칠기의 구분 기준은 이전의 연구에서 도출된 것을 적용하였으며, 구분 방법으로는 디지털 필티링 기법을 사용하였다. 원래의 프로파일과 구분한 프로파일을 사용하여 금속 주형을 제작하였으며, 정밀한 가공을 위하여 WEDM(Wire-cut Electric Discharge Machining)을 사용하였다. 고강도 석고를 사용하여 시편을 복제하였고, 절리면 전단시험을 실시하였다. 낮은 연직응력 범위와 높은 연직응력 범위에서 전단시험을 실시하고, 거칠기의 규모와 연직응력에 따른 발현 특성을 분석하였다. 절리면 전단강도 예측을 위한 새로운 상관식을 제안하였으며, 이 상관식은 거칠기의 발현 특성과 거칠기 계수의 특성을 모두 효과적으로 고려할 수 있었다. 그러므로 거칠기의 구분에 의한 정량화가 절리면 전단강도 예측을 위한 효과적인 방법이 될 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Barton and Choubey(1977)가 제안한 10개의 표준 거칠기 단면을 3차원으로 확장하여 모든 단면의 거칠기가 일정한 3차원 표준 거칠기 절리 모형을 제작하였다. 석고를 사용하여 이 절리 모형을 복제하여 절리시료를 제작하였고, 복제된 절리시료에 직접전단시험을 실시하여 표준거칠기 단면에 부여된 절리 거칠기계수(JRC)를 검증하였다. 먼저 절리 시료의 JRC, 절리면압축강도(JCS)와 기본마찰각(𝜙_b)을 이용하여 Barton (1973)의 전단강도 기준식에서 절리의 전단강도를 추정하고, 직접전단시험에서 측정된 전단강도와 비교하였다. 직접전단시험에서 측정된 전단강도는 1번과 4번 표준 거칠기를 제외한 8개 시료에서 Barton의 기준식에서 추정된 전단강도보다 낮았고, JRC가 큰 시료에서 차이가 더욱 크게 나타났다. 직접전단시험 결과를 역해석하여 JRC, JCS 그리고 𝜙_b의 적절성을 검토하였고, JRC의 문제점으로 인하여 측정된 전단강도가 추정된 전단강도보다 낮은 것으로 판명되었다. 역해석으로 구한 표준 거칠기 단면의 JRC 값인 JRC_m은 JRC보다 전반적으로 낮은 값을 보이지만 JRC와 상관성이 매우 높은 직선의 관계를 나타내었다. 위의 결과를 종합하여 표준 거칠기 단면의 정확한 JRC_m을 제시하였고, JRC_m과 JRC의 상관관계를 제시하였으며, Barton의 전단강도 기준식을 수정하여 제안하였다.
