Vertical drain used improvement soft clay is made of not only decreasing construction time but also increasing the ground strength during some decades. As, it is applied to improvement soft clay with vertical drain, it is designed by the result that is caused by oedemeter test ignored anisotropic of the ground related to consolidation conditions. When we are expected consolidation conditions, the most important factors is soil of compaction and water permeability. Above all, anisotropic of the ground permeability show the results which differ between vertical and radial drainage. Recently, We study for radial consolidation coefficient and permeability coefficient that utilized Rowe Cell Consolidation and permeability tester but, it dont use well because of not only a supply lack also difficulty of test. The paper experimented with searching anisotropic of the ground so there are Rowe Cell test, standard consolidation tester and modified standard consolidation test that have pohang's soft clay ground. Therefore, we find anisotropic of the ground and a tester of easy use more than before. We made a comparison test result between the devised tester and Rowe Cell tester, Also, we learned average degree of consolidation for partial penetrating vertical drains. We were found relations as effective stress-void and effective stress-permeability coefficient through those tests.

다짐 에너지에 따른 노반 성토재의 탄성파 속도변화 특성을 규명하기 위하여 다양한 위치에서 채취한 시료를 이용하여 실내 다짐 시험, 실내 탄성파 측정 시험, 현장 탄성파 측정 시험을 실시하였다. 함수비 변화에 따른 압축파와 전단파 속도 변화 곡선은 다짐 곡선과 유사한 형태를 보인다. 다짐에너지가 100 %이상 되는 조건에서는 다짐 에너지가 증가하더라도 습윤 측의 다짐곡선과 탄성파 속도 곡선에 큰 변화가 없다. 압축파의 경우 건조 측에서 건조단위중량이 증가함에 따라 압축파 속도가 선형적으로 증가하는 양상이 나타나지만, 습윤 측에서는 건조단위중량이 증가함에 따라 지수함수의 형태로 압축파 속도가 비선형적으로 증가한다. 현장 시험으로 측정한 탄성파 속도는 구속압이 증가함에 따라 증가하며, 압축파 속도보다는 전단파 속도가 다짐 에너지 수준에 보다 민감하게 변화한다.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to ascertain the curing period of cementless cold central plant recycled asphalt base-layer, using mechanical analyses and specimen quality tests on the field. METHODS : Cold central plant recycled asphalt base-layer mixture was produced in the plant from reclaimed asphalt, natural aggregate, filler for the cold mix, and the modified emulsion AP using asphalt mix design and plant mix design. In order to examine the applicability of the curing period during the field test, the international standards for the possibility of core extraction and the degree of compaction and LFWD deflection were analyzed. Moreover, Marshall stability test, porosity test, and indirect tensile strength test were performed on the specimens of asphalt mix and plant mix design. RESULTS : The plant production process and compaction method of cementless cold central plant recycled asphalt base-layer were established, and the applicability of the optical moisture content for producing the mixture was verified through the field test. In addition, it was determined that the core extraction method of the conventional international curing standard was insufficient to ensure performance, and the LFWD test demonstrated that the deflection converges after a two-day curing. However, the back-calculation analysis reveals that a three-day curing is satisfactory, resulting in a general level of performance of dense asphalt base-layer. Moreover, from the result of the specimen quality test of the asphalt mix design and plant mix design according to the curing period, it was determined that the qualities satisfied both domestic and international standards, after a two-day curing. However, it was determined that the strength and stiffness after three-day curing are higher than those after a two-day curing by approximately 3.5 % and 20 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:A three-day curing period is proposed for the cementless cold central plant recycled asphalt base-layer; this curing period can be demonstrated to retain the modulus of asphalt-base layer in the field and ensure stable quality characteristics.

In northern China, abundant summer rainfall and a higher water table can weaken the soil due to salt heave, collapsibility, and increased moisture absorption, thus the chlorine saline soil (silty clay) needs to be stabilized prior to use in road embankments. To optimize chlorine saline soil stabilizing programs, unconfined compressive strength tests were conducted on soil treated with five different stabilizers before and after soaking, followed by field compaction test and unconfined compressive strength test on a trial road embankment. In situ testing were performed with the stabilized soils in an expressway embankment, and the results demonstrated that the stabilized soil with lime and SH agent (an organic stabilizer composed of modified polyvinyl alcohol and water) is suitable for road embankments. The appropriate addition ratio of stabilized soil is 10% lime and 0.9% SH agent. SH agent wrapped soil particles, filled soil pores, and generated a silk-like web to improve the moisture stability, strength, and stress-strain performance of stabilized soil.

To improve the utilization rate of phosphate tailings (PTs) and widen the sources of subgrade filler, the PTs is employed to modify clay, forming a PTs modified clay, applied in the subgrade. Accordingly, the environmental friendliness of PTs was investigated. Subsequently, an optimal proportion was determined through compaction and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) experiments. Afterward, the stability of mixture with the optimal proportion was further evaluated through the water stability and dry-wet stability experiments. Finally, via the gradation and microstructure experiments, the strength mechanism of PTs modified clay was analyzed. The results show that the PTs were classified in the non-hazardous solid wastes, belonging to Class A building materials. With the increase of PTs content and the decrease of clay content, the optimum water content and the swelling degree gradually decrease, while the maximum dry density and CBR first increase and then decrease, reaching their peak value at 50% PTs content, which is the optimal proportion. The resilient modulus of PTs modified clay at the optimal proportion reaches 110.2 MPa. The water stability coefficient becomes stable after soaking for 4 days, while the dry-wet stability coefficient decreases with the increase of cycles and tends to be stable after 8 cycles. Under the long-term action, the dry-wet change has a greater adverse impact than continuous soaking. The analysis demonstrates that the better strength mainly comes from the skeleton role of PTs and the cementation of clay. The systematic laboratory test results and economic analysis collectively provide data evidence for the advantages of PTs modified clay as a subgrade filler.

Dam deformation should be strictly controlled for the construction of 300 m-high rockfill dams, so the rockfill materials need to have low porosity. A method of using composite grout is proposed to reduce the porosity of rockfill materials for the construction of high rockfill dams. The composite grout is a mixture of fly ash, cement and sand with the properties of easy flow and post-hardening. During the process of rolling compaction, the grout admixture sprinkled on the rockfill surface will gradually infiltrate into the inter-granular voids of rockfill by the exciting force of vibratory roller to reduce the porosity of rockfill. A visible flowing test was firstly designed to explore the flow characteristics of composite grout in porous media. Then, the compressibility, shear strength, permeability and suffusion susceptibility properties of composite grout-modified rockfill are studied by a series of laboratory tests. Experimental results show that the flow characteristics of composite grout are closely related to the fly ash content, the water-to-binder ratio, the maximum sand size and the content of composite grout. The filling of composite grout can effectively reduce the porosity of rockfill materials, as well as increase the compression modulus of rockfill materials, especially for loose and gap-graded rockfill materials. Composite grout-modified rockfill tends to have greater shear strength, larger suffusion erosion resistance, and smaller permeability coefficient. The composite grout mainly plays the roles of filling, lubrication and cementation in rockfill materials.

PURPOSES: The liquid-type chemical warm-mix asphalt (WMA) additive has been developed. This study evaluates the basic properties of the additive and the mechanical properties of WMA asphalt and mixture manufactured by using the newly developed chemical additive. METHODS: First, the newly developed WMA additive was applied to the original asphalt by various composition of additive components and dosage ratio of additive. These WMA asphalt binders were evaluated in terms of penetration, softening point, rotational viscosity, and PG grade. Based on the binder test results, one best candidate was chosen to apply to the mixture and then the mechanical properties of WMA mixture were evaluated for moisture susceptibility, dynamic modulus, and rutting and fatigue resistance. RESULTS : According to the binder test, WMA asphalt binders showed the similar properties to the original asphalt binder except the penetraion index of WMA additive was a little higher than original binder. From the Superpave mix design, the optimum asphalt content and volumetric properties of WMA mixture were almost the same with those of hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixture even though the production and compaction temperatures were $30^{\circ}C$ lower for the WMA mixture. From the first set of performance evaluation, it was found that the WMA mixture would have some problem in moisture susceptibility. The additive was modified to improve the resistance to moisture and the second set of performance evaluation showed that the WMA mixture with modified chemical additive would have the similar performance to HMA mixture. CONCLUSIONS : Based on the various laboratory tests, it was concluded that the newly developed chemical WMA additve could be successfully used to produce the WMA mixture with the comparable performance to the HMA mixture. These laboratory evaluations should be confirmed by applying this additive to the field and monitoring the long-term performance of the pavement, which are scheduled in the near future.

예비연구(박철수 등, 2009)를 통해 철도 토공노반에 대한 새로운 품질관리 지표로서 압축파 속도와 계측 기법을 제안하였다. 제안하고자 하는 새로운 품질관리 방안은 밀도를 이용한 품질관리 과정을 동일하게 따랐으며, 다만 밀도를 설계단계의 회복탄성계수와 관련 있는 압축파 속도로 대신하였다. 이와 더불어 현장 함수비가 최적함수비의 ${\pm}2%$를 만족하도록 보완하였다. 본 연구에서는 직접도달파 기법 및 실내 압축파 계측 외에 크로스홀 시험과 공진주시험을 추가로 수행하여, 압축파 속도에 근거한 새로운 품질관리 방안의 적용성을 검증하였다. 응력이 보정된 크로스홀 시험결과는 직접도달파 시험의 결과와 잘 일치 하였고, 공진주시험 결과 또한 크로스홀 시험의 결과와 잘 일치 하였다. 압축파 속도는 이론적으로나 실무적 관점에서 철도 토공노반의 우수한 품질관리 기준임이 밝혀졌다.

지표부근의 지반의 경우, 함수비가 지반의 동적 물성치에 큰 영향을 주는 요소가 된다. 본 연구에서는 함수비의 변화 때문에 발생하는 최대전단탄성계수, 전단탄성계수 감소곡선, 감쇠비의 전반적인 변화를 공진주/비틂전단 시험을 통해 평가했다. 기존의 동적물성치에 대한 다짐함수비의 영향 연구와는 달리 일정한 다짐함수비로 성형된 시료에 대하여 모관흡수력(capillary pressure)을 조절하는 방법으로 함수비를 변화시키고 이때의 동적물성치의 변화를 평가하였다. 이를 위하여 기존의 공진주/비틀전단시험 시스템을 개량하여 함수비 변화뿐만 아니라 모관흡수력의 변화에 따른 동적물성치의 변화도 함께 평가할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 실내에서 공진주/비틂전단 시험으로 결정된 함수비에 따른 전단탄성계수의 변화 양상을 동일현장(한국도로공사 시험도로)에서 수행된 크로스흘 시험결과와 비교하여 그 타당성을 검증하였으며, 현장으로의 확장 가능성을 확인하였다. 실내시험과 현장시험으로부터 구한 전단탄성계수는 합리적인 범위에서 일치하였으며, 함수비가 감소함에 따라 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.
