If a saturate sand is subjected to ground vibrations it tends to compact and decrease in volume. if drainage is unable to occur the tendency to decrease in volume results in an increase in pore water pressure and if the pore water pressure build up to the point at which it is equal to the overburden pressure the effective stress becomes zero the sand loses its strength completely. This phenomenon is called "Liquefaction" It is associated primarily but not exclusively with saturated cohesion soils. The attention and study on liquefaction have been growing since the earthquake in Niigita Japan in 1964. Many researchers on liquefaction effect have been carried out in many countries under the potential influence of earthquake including Japan. However little research on liquefaction has been reported in Korea because Korea has been considered to be safe from earthquake. The term "liquefaction" is only known among geotechnical engineers,. In this paper overview of liquefaction and the evaluation on the applicability of vibrated crushed-stone pile as a liquefaction prevention method are presented.ethod are presented.

본 연구에서는 활동성 불연속면을 포함하고 있는 모래지반에 터널을 굴착할 때에 터널 주변의 원지반에 발생되는 아칭을 규명하기 위하여 터널 상부의 토피고와 불연속면의 위치 및 각도를 변화시켜가며 모형실험을 수행하였다. 모형실험기의 중앙에 수직으로 이동이 가능한 가동판을 설치하고 모래지반 조성 후에 가동판을 강하시켜서 터널 굴착을 모형화 하였고, 토조의 바닥판에 로드셀을 부착하여, 아칭에 의한 하중전이를 측정하였다. 굴착에 의한 지표면의 침하거동은 변위측정센서를 지표면에 설치하여 측정하였으며, 실험 중에 연속사진촬영을 실시하고 지반조성시 일정한 간격으로 설치한 측점의 움직임을 관측하여 굴착에 의한 지반이완형태를 측정하였다. 본 연구 결과 터널굴착시 불연속면의 각도와 위치, 그리고 터널 상부의 토피고에 따라서 하중전이 형태와 이완영역이 변화하는 것을 확인하였으며 지반의 이완영역이 터널과 인접해 있는 불연속면을 따라 주변지반으로 점차 확대되어 가는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The present work investigates the behavior of the embankment models resting on soft soil reinforced with ordinary and stone columns encased with geogrid. Model tests were performed with different spacing distances between stone columns and two lengths to diameter ratios (L/d) of the stone columns, in addition to different embankment heights. A total number of 42 model tests were carried out on a soil with undrianed shear strength $${\sim_\sim}10kPa$$. The models consist of stone columns embankment at s/d equal to 2.5, 3 and 4 with L/d ratio equal 5 and 8. Three embankment heights; 200 mm, 250 mm and 300 mm were tested for both tests of ordinary (OSC) and geogrid encased stone columns (ESC). Three earth pressure cells were used to measure directly the vertical effective stress on column at the top of the middle stone column under the center line of embankment and on the edge stone column for all models while the third cell was placed at the base of embankment between two columns to measure the vertical effective stress in soft soil directly. The performance of stone columns embankments relies upon the ability of the granular embankment material to arch over the 'gaps' between the stone columns spacing. The results showed that the ratio of the embankment height to the clear spacing between columns (h/s-d) is a key parameter. It is found that (h/s-d)<1.2 and 1.4 for OSC and ESC, respectively; (h is the embankment height, s is the spacing between columns and d is the diameter of stone columns), no effect of arching is pronounced, the settlement at the surface of the embankment is very large, and the stress acting on the subsoil is virtually unmodified from the nominal overburden stress. When $(h/s-d){\geq}2.2$ for OSC and ESC respectively, full arching will occur and minimum stress on subsoil between stone columns will act, so the range of critical embankment height will be 1.2 (h/sd) to 2.2 (h/s-d) for both OSC and ESC models.

초근접 병렬터널의 필라부에는 응력이 집중되고, 기존에는 터널의 안정성을 확보하기 위하여 강연선을 이용하여 필라부를 보강한다. 하지만 토사 지반에서는 필라부의 강도가 감소하기 때문에 필라부를 강연선으로 보강하는 것으로는 터널 안전성을 충분히 확보하지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 초근접 병렬터널의 필라부를 강관으로 보강하는 새로운 공법의 보강효과를 검토하기 위하여 실내터널모형실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 상부응력에 대한 필라부의 지지능력은 강관 보강하는 경우가 강연선 보강하는 경우보다 22% 큰 것으로 나타났다. Particle Image Velocimetry 기법을 이용한 분석결과 필라부 강관 보강은 강연선 보강보다 병렬터널과 필라부에 상재하중이 균일하게 작용할 수 있는 더 유리한 조건을 형성하였다. 실험결과에 기반하여 필라부 강관보강공법은 강연선 보강공법보다 터널 안정성에 긍정적인 효과를 가져올 것으로 기대된다.

Currently in increasing number of urban tunnels with small overburden are excavated according to the principle of the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM). Successful design, construction and maintenance of NATM tunnel demands prediction, control and monitoring of ground displacement and support stress high accuracy. A magnetic anisotropy sensor is used for nondestructive measurement of stress on surfaces of a ferromagnetic material, such as steel. The sensor is built on the principle of the magneto-strictive effect in which changes in magnetic permeability due to deformation of a ferromagnetic material is measured in a nondestructive manner, which then can be translated into the absolute values of stresses existing on the surface of the material. This technique was applied to measure stresses of H-beams, used as tunnel support structures, to confirm expected measurement accuracy with reading error of about 10 to 20 MPa, which was confirmed by monitoring strains released during cutting tests The results show that this method could be one of the promising technologies for non-destructive stress measurement for safe construction and maintenance of underground rock structures encountered in civil and mining engineering.

최근 비개착공법으로 지하차도 시공 시 강관을 지반에 압입한 후 강관자체를 철근과 모르타르로 보강하는 다양한 일체형 파이프루프 공법이 적용되고 있다. 이러한 일체형 파이프루프 공법은 상재하중에 대해 지보강성 효과를 발휘하여 콘크리트 지하차도 구조물에 작용하는 응력을 한층 감소시킬 것으로 예상된다. 또한 아칭효과에 의해 주변지반의 연직방향 및 수평방향의 토압이 변화하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 일체형 파이프루프 시공에 따른 주변지반의 토압 분포 특성을 분석하고, 일체형 파이프루프 내측에 시공되는 콘크리트에 작용하는 토압을 분석하기 위하여 유한차분 수치해석을 통해 파이프루프의 체결 특성을 모델링하고 응력 및 변위거동을 분석하였다. 지반과 구조물의 경계에 인터페이스 요소를 도입하여 지반구조물의 상호작용을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 본체 콘크리트 구조물에 작용하는 연직토압은 파이프루프의 강성과 아칭 작용에 의해 원상태의 연직토압보다 큰 폭으로 감소하여 작용하는 것을 확인하였다. 지하차도 구조물의 단면 설계 시 설계하중에 대해 이러한 아칭작용에 의한 연직토압의 감소를 고려한다면 경제성을 보다 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, design charts for estimating consolidation settlement are proposed according to finite strain consolidation theory using a nonlinear constitutive relationship equation. Results of parametric sensitivity analysis shows that the final settlement, initial height, and initial void ratio exerted the greatest effect, and the coefficients of the void ratio-effective-stress. Proposed design charts were analyzed for three regions using a representative constitutive relationship equation that enables major dredged-reclaimed construction sites in Korea. The regional design charts can be calculated accurately for the final settlement because it is applied directly to the numerical analysis results, except for reading errors. A general design chart applicable to all marine clays is proposed through correlation analysis of the main parameters. A final self-weight consolidation settlement with various initial void ratios and initial height conditions should be estimated easily using the general design chart and constitutive relationship. The estimated final settlement using the general design chart is similar to the results of numerical analysis obtained using finite strain consolidation theory. Under an overburden pressure condition, design charts for estimating consolidation settlement are proposed for three regions in Korea.

This paper presents the re-evaluation of existing piezocone penetration test (CPTu)-based shear wave velocity (V_s) equations through their application into well-documented data obtained at nine sites in six countries. The re-evaluation indicates that the existing equations are appropriate to use for any specific soil, but not for various types of clays. Existing equations were adjusted to suit all nine clays and show that the correlations between the measured and predicted V_s values tend to improve with an increasing number of parameters in the equations. An adjusted equation, which comprises a CPTu parameter and two soil properties (i.e., effective overburden stress and void ratio) with the best correlation, can be converted into a CPTu-based equation that has two CPTu parameters and depth by considering the effect of soil cementation. Then, the developed equation was verified by application to each of the nine soils and nine other worldwide clays, in which the predicted V_s values are comparable with the measured and the stochastically simulated values. Accordingly, the newly developed CPTu-based equation, which is a time-saving and economical method and can estimate V_s indirectly for any type of naturally deposited clay, is recommended for practical applications.

일반적으로 사질토 지반의 원형수직구에 설치된 흙막이벽에 작용하는 토압은 삼차원 아칭효과로 인하여 평면변형조건의 옹벽에 작용하는 토압과는 다르며, 원통형 벽체의 설계를 위해서는 벽체에 작용하는 토압의 정확한 산정이 필요하다. 원형수직구에 설치된 벽체 배면지반의 파괴모드는 지중응력상태에 의존하게 되는데, 파괴모드는 실질적으로 원기둥형 활동면을 갖는 경우와 깔대기형 파괴면을 갖는 경우로 구분할 수 있다. 기존의 연구결과에 의하면 각각의 파괴모드에 대하여 원통형 벽체에 작용하는 토압공식이 제안되었으나, 도입된 가정으로 인하여 불합리한 경향을 보이는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 벽체에 작용하는 토압을 산정하기 위하여 각각의 파괴모드에 대하여 제안된 토압공식을 살펴보고, 각 토압공식에서 가정된 사항을 수정 제안하였다. 각각의 파괴모드에 대하여 수정 제안된 토압공식들은 상재하중과 벽면마찰을 고려하였으며, 활동면에서의 힘의 평형관계를 실제적으로 고려하였다.
