This study performed to establish tile characteristics of constant rate of strain consolidation(CRSC) tests. The values obtained by the CRCS tests were compared with oedometer tests. From the comparision of the results of oedometer and CRSC tests for soft soil from Haenam, Korea, it was concluded that. 1. When rate of strain is 0.9mm/hr, compression curve of CRSC test was not coincided with those of tile oedometer test, then preconsolidation stress was larger than those of other rates of strain. 2. Permeabilities from CRSC tests and direct measurements were about same each other, but permeabilities from Oedometer tests were large than those from others.

Parameters that represent the characteristic of consolidation have been determined by the oedometer tests. They are varied by the process of sampling and transportation, accuracy of apparatus, process of sample trimming and the skill of engineers. Also, it is difficult to grasp what factor exert a influence on the parameters. In this study, Slurry Rowe Cell Tests were peformed to evaluate the disturbance. Using the plot of e - log p which obtained from Rowe Cell test results, we compared the swelling indexes at the stress relief and the last loading stage. With that result, we tried to presume the disturbance of the 330 oedometer tests. The plot of compression-swelling index at the stress relief considerably scattered but at the last step of load shows a correlations between them. And the plot of depth-p$\sub$c/ shows a correlation with the different swelling indexes, but not in the LL-p$\sub$c/. Consequently, it is considered that the disturbance of the consolidation tests can be presumed by the comparison of the difference of swelling index.

The key parameter that affects the consolidation process of soil is the coefficient of permeability. The common assumption in the consolidation analysis is that the coefficient of permeability is porosity-dependent. However, various authors suggest that the strain-dependency of the coefficient of permeability should also be taken into account. In this paper, we present results of experimental and numerical analyses, with an aim to determine the strain-dependency of the coefficient of permeability. We present in detail both the experimental procedure and the finite element formulation of the two-dimensional axisymmetric numerical model of the oedometer test (standard and modified). We perform a set of experimental standard and modified oedometer tests. We use these experimental results to validate our numerical model and to define the model input parameter. Finally, by combining the experimental and numerical results, we propose the expression for the strain-dependent coefficient of permeability.

This study was carried out to investigate the consolidation characteristics of the remolded clay by the oedometer and the constant rate of strain(CRS) consolidation tests. As the rate of strain increases, the settlement rapidly decreased. As the ratio of the sand in the specimen increases, its effect on the rate of strain to the settlement was reduced. As the effective stress increased, the void ratio decreased, while the rate of strain increased, it did not show a clear variation. The reduction of the void ratio was shown to be less than the oedometer test. The coefficient of vertical consolidation with effective stress showed very large variation around preconsolidation stress, but the rate of strain did not provide significant effects. The rate of strain with effective stress gradually decreased at all tests and mixed ratio of sand. The rate of strain at the constant rate of strain tests showed smaller than in the oedometer test. The coefficient of consolidation at the constant rate of strain tests showed much more increase than in the oedometer test. The ratio of the vertical coefficient of consolidation by the odometer and the constant rate of strain tests showed a large difference according to various tests method and mixing ratio. Therefore, it is recommended that careful attention should be paid to designing the soft ground improvement.

Laboratory and field investigations of the coefficient of vertical and horizontal consolidation for Yangsan clay deposit were carried out using the conventional oedometer, Rowecell and piezocone test. Correlation among these test methods were also studied. In this paper, the relationship between vertical and horizontal consolidation were suggested such as C$\sub$h(Oed)/=0.75∼1.46 C$\sub$v(Oed)/, C$\sub$h(Rowecell) =1.95∼2.93 C$\sub$v(Oed)/, C$\sub$h(piezocone)/ =1.0∼5.0 C$\sub$v(Oed)/. As a result, a fair approximate estimations of C$\sub$h/ can be made by simple test using the conventional oedometer tests.

For exisiting $K_0$-oedometer, the lateral wall of the ring is cut thinly to make space and by filling the space with space with water or mercuty to keep the balance to the lateral pressure of a specimen, the pressure of the fluid is checked for the pressure of the specimen. But the devices to keep the balance to the lateral pressure of a specimen are complicated, difficult to manufacture and expensive. As newly developed $K_0$-oedometer is equipped with the load cell which can resist higher pressute than the lateral pressure of the specimen, there is nearly no deformation due to the lateral pressure of the specimen. And the measuting is cheap and easy as there are fewer accessories.

Static Penetration Test (CPT) and Dynamic Penetration Test (DPT) are commonly used in-situ tests in a routine geotechnical investigation. Besides their use for qualitative investigation (lithology, homogeneity and spatial variability), they are used as practical tools of geotechnical characterization (resistance to the penetration, soil rigidity) and modern foundation design as well. The paper aims at presenting the results of an extensive research work on the evaluation of the 1D primary consolidation settlement of saturated clayey soils on the basis of the CPT or DPT tests. The work is based on an analysis of the correlations between the tip resistance to penetration measured in these tests and the parameters of compressibility measured by the compressibility oedometer test, through a local geotechnical database in the northern Algeria. Such an analysis led to the proposal of two methods of calculation of the settlement, one based on the CPT test and the other one on the DPT. The comparison between the predicted settlements and those computed on the basis of the oedometer test showed a good agreement which demonstrate the possbility to use the CPT and DPT tests as reliable tools of computation of foundation settlements in clayey soils.

기존의 Oedometer 시험은 간단한 시험장치의 편리함으로 인해 널리 이용되어 왔다. 그러나 이 방법은 장시간의 시험기간, 각 단계 하중에서의 불규칙적인 응력상태, 매우 연약한 점토에 대한 시험의 어려움 및 시료의 포화문제와 같은 여러 문제점을 노출하게 되었다. 따라서 이런 단점을 보완 할 수 있는 시험 방법의 하나로 일정 변형률 압밀시험 이 개발되어 널리 이용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 세가지 변형률을 이용한 CRS시험을 실시하였으며, 이 결과를 수정된 Wissa(1971)의 비선형 이론을 이용해 해석하고, 기존의 Oedometer시험 및 직접투수시험과 비교분석함으로서 CRS시험의 효율성 및 적용성 유무를 판단하고자 한다.

In this study, a series of large-scale oedometer tests was performed to investigate the compressibility of rock fill materials. The testing samples were prepared to have three different grain size distributions and for each distribution, exist in two different states(dried and saturated). The test results indicated that particle breakages occurred mainly for the particles larger than 4.75mm in size and increased with increasing grain sizes. Also, it was found that, for a dry sample as it became well-graged, its compressibility decreased and accordingly, its tangent constrained modulus increased. A comparion between the samples in dry and saturated states revealed that compressibility of the materials increases with increasing water content. The values of tangent constrained modulus calculated for the tested dry samples were larger by about 10 to 20%, on average, than those for the saturated samples.

연약지반의 적정 압밀속도 및 압밀침하량 예측에 있어 유효응력, 투수계수, 압밀계수, 체적변화계수 등의 물질함수는 가장 중요한 요소로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 수평배수 조건에서의 압밀 물질함수 산정을 위한 개량형 수평배수 압밀시험 장치를 고안하고, 이를 이용하여 고함수비 해성점토에 대한 압밀시험을 실시하였다. 시험에 이용된 시료는 상부 준설매립 지반과 하부 원지반점토로 구성된 남해안 산업단지 조성 현장에서 채취하였다. 기존의 표준압밀시험을 동시에 실시하였으며, 이 결과를 이용하여 배수조건별 간극비, 유효응력, 투수계수, 압밀계수, 체적변화계수 등을 분석하였다. 압밀 물질함수는 Stark(2005)이 제안한 소성지수 포함의 회귀분석 방정식 형태로 표현되었으며, 이를 통해 투수성에 대한 이방성 특성을 산정할 수 있었다.
