A combination of a gravity wall and an anchor beam is widely used to support the high soil deposit on rock mass. In this study, two groups of shaking table test were performed to investigate the responses of such combined retaining structure, where the rock masses were shaped with a flat surface and a curved surface, respectively. Meanwhile, the dynamic numerical analysis was carried out for a comparison or an extensive study. The results were studied and compared between the combined retaining structures with different shaped rock masses with regard to the acceleration response, the earth pressure response, and the axial anchor force. The acceleration response is not significantly influenced by the surface shape of rock mass. The earth pressure response on the combined retaining structure with a flat rock surface is more intensive than the one with a curved rock surface. The anchor force is significantly enlarged by seismic excitation with a main earthquake-induced increment at the first intensive pulse of Wenchuan motion. The value of anchor force in the combined retaining structure with a flat rock surface is generally larger than the one with a curved rock surface. Generally, the combined retaining structure with a curved rock surface presents a better seismic performance.

Soil-reinforced segmental retaining walls(SRW) have been proven to be high earthquake-resistant structure during recent earthquakes in United States and Japan. The mechanicals behavior of the SRWs under seismic loading, however, has not been fully understood. Although the seismic design issues for the civil engineering structures have gained much attention in Korea due to the increase in frequency of earthquake occurrence, the seismic design for the SRWs has not been being implemented. This study has been undertaken with the aim of developing a more rational seismic design/analysis method for soil-reinforced segmental retaining walls. This paper present fundamentals of current seismic design/analysis method and the results of a comparative study between NCMA and FHWA design guidelines, Practical implications of the findings from this study are discussed in great detail.

In the retaining wall design process, track and train loads are usually considered as uniform surcharge loads and strip loads. In this paper, the lateral(horizontal) earth pressure on retaining structures caused by track and train load are calculated using the Boussinesq solution. And also total horizontal force per unit length and the location of the resultant force were estimated with the changes of loading locations and widths of the loadings. The maximum horizontal earth pressure and the location of it for high-speed train load were 11.83kPa and 1.7m at the loading condition 2m away from retaining walls.

The use of strut preloading method is gradually increasing in braced excavations in Korea. And it is necessary to analyse the effects of strut preloading on the wall deflection, bending moment and strut axial force etc. In this study, by using the analysis method of beams on elasto-plastic foundations, parametric studies of correlation between preloading and earth retaining structures in sandy soils were peformed in strut preloading application. As results, about 50% of design strut load was effective as a preloading force in considering the displacement and member forces of structures. And at least the effective stiffness of strut should be over 25% of the ideal value in order to restrain the excessive increase of wall deflection and bending moments. In order to protect excessive movements in braced excavation, to preload the strut was rather effective way than to increase the stiffness of strut and braced wall, but the excessive axial force of strut should be checked simultaneously.

이 연구는 김해시 상동면 매리 산사태지의 발생특성을 밝히기 위한 일련의 연구로 본보에서는 구조물의 안정해석을 실시하였다. 옹벽 및 석축의 외적 안정성 검토 결과, II-D단면을 제외하고는 모두 불안정한 것으로 산정되어 구조물에 대한 안정 대책이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, 불안정한 옹벽은 보강하고 여기에 배수공을 추가로 설치하여 안정을 도모할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다. 아울러 이 지역의 석축 구조물은 사면활동에 저항하기 위하여 석축 상부의 사면을 완화하여 상부로부터의 하중을 감소시키는 방법이 유용할 것으로 생각된다.

최근 들어 토목 구조물에도 친환경성과 경제성이 강조되고 있으며 콘크리트 블록대신 soilbag을 전면벽으로 이용하는 절토사면 보강공법이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 친환경적이고 경제적인 재료라 하더라도 안정성이 보장되지 않으면 구조물로써의 가치를 지닐 수 없다. Soilbag 옹벽의 안전성 검토를 위해 기존의 옹벽 설계프로그램인 MSEW를 사용하여 연결부에서의 인발저항, 파단, 인장응력과 내적, 외적 안전율을 산정하고 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 안전율 산정결과와 비교하였다. 연결부의 안전성을 평가할 수 있는 연결강도 감소계수를 차등 적용시켜 연결강도가 감소함에 따라 옹벽의 안전율을 검토하였고 soilbag 보강토 옹벽에서는 soilbag과 지오그리드 보강재의 연결재가 이동이 가능하기 때문에 전면구배의 변경이 자유로우므로 soilbag의 구배에 따른 안전율 변화도 확인하였다. 해석결과로부터 soilbag을 이용한 보강토 옹벽의 연결부 강도에 대한 안전율 및 내적, 외적안정에 대한 안전율을 비교 검토한 결과 전 영역에서 기준 안전율 이상임을 나타내었다.

A hanging-type sand-retaining wall is a very common sand-blocking fence structure used to prevent sand movement. This type of wall is widely used along the Qinghai-Tibet and Gobi desert railways in Xinjiang, Western China. To analyze the characteristics of wind-sand flow fields under the effect of such a sand fence structure, a wind tunnel test and a field test were carried out. The wind tunnel test showed the zoning characteristics of the flow fields under the effect of the hanging-type sand-retaining wall, and the field test provided the sediment transport data for effective wind-proof interval and the sand resistance data in the front and behind the sand-retaining wall. The consistency of the wind-sand flow fields with the spatial distribution characteristic of wind-carried sand motion was verified by the correspondences of the acceleration zone in the flow field and the negative elevation points of the percentage variations of the sand collection rate. The spatial distribution characteristic of the field sand collection data further showed the spatial structural characteristic of the sandy air currents under the action of the hanging-type sand-retaining wall and the sand resistance characteristic of the sand-retaining wall. This systematic study on the wind-sand flow fields under the control of the hanging-type sand-retaining wall provides a theoretical basis for the rational layout of sand control engineering systems and the efficient utilization of a hanging-type sand-retaining wall.

국내에서는 외국현장에서 사용되고 있는 한계상태설계법을 도입하기 위하여 연구가 일부 진행 중이다. 국내외 한계상태 설계법에서는 말뚝기초, 얕은기초 등 비교적 데이터베이스를 구축하기 쉬운 분야로 설계기준이 마련되고 있으나 옹벽 등에 대하여 재하시험이 어려운 실정으로 옹벽의 한계상태설계법에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구는 2008년도에 제정된 국내 도로옹벽 표준도를 기준으로 옹벽구조물의 한계상태설계법의 적용성 평가에 관한 연구이다. 옹벽의 활동과 전도에 대한 안전율을 LRFD 설계기준을 이용하여 범용 한계상태설계법 프로그램의 해석결과와 비교 검토하였다. 또한 해석결과의 비교를 위하여 테일러 급수를 이용한 간편 신뢰성 분석을 실시하였다. 옹벽단면의 LRFD 검토 결과 허용응력설계법에 비해 안전율이 낮게 나타났으며, 한계상태설계 도입을 통해 옹벽의 단면을 감소시켜 경제성을 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 향후 신뢰성 확보를 위해 지반 데이터의 사전평가 연구가 필요하며, 그라운드 앵커와 같은 지보재가 적용되는 옹벽의 한계상태설계법 적용, 평가에 관한 연구도 필요하다.

Rankine's theory of earth pressure cannot be directly employed to c-${\phi}$ soils backfill with a sloping ground subjected to complex loadings. In this paper, an analytical solution for active earth pressures on retaining structures of cohesive backfill with an inclined surface subjected to surcharge, pore water pressure and seismic loadings, are derived on the basis of the lower-bound theorem of limit analysis combined with Rankine's earth pressure theory and the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion. The generalized active earth pressure coefficients (dimensionless total active thrusts) are presented for use in comprehensive design charts which eliminate the need for tedious and cumbersome graphical diagram process. Charts are developed for rigid earth retaining structures under complex environmental loadings such as the surcharge, pore water pressure and seismic inertia force. An example is presented to illustrate the practical application for the proposed coefficient charts.
