In this paper, the utilization of waste foundry sand produced in the molding process is studied as a backfill material for underground electric utility systems such as concrete box structures and pipe lines for power supply. The physical, chemical and thermal properties for waste foundry sand are investigated for mechanical stability, environmental hazard and power transmission capacity. Also its properties are compared with the natural river sand. The test results show that waste foundry sand can be utilized for underground concrete box structures as a backfill material; however, it can not be applied to underground pipe lines due to high thermal resistivity or low power transmission capacity.

본 연구에서는 주물공정에서 발생되는 폐주물사를 가공처리한 방식사를 지하 전력구 및 전력선용 보호관로 공사의 되메움재료로 사용하는데에 따른 적합성을 분석하고자 물리적, 화학적, 열저항 특성실험을 실시하고 현재 지하 전력 구공사의 되메움재로 사용하고 있는 강모래와 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과, 방식사는 전력구 되메움재로서 물리적 기준에 적합하며, 화학적으로 유해성이 적은 것으로 판단되나, 허용전류 측면에서는 함수비 변화에 따른 열저항율의 변동폭이 커서 강모래에 비해 불리하게 나타났다. 이는 방식사가 전력선용 보호관로의 되메움재로 사용하기에는 부적합하나, 토양의 열저항과 무관한 콘크리트 Box로 차폐된 전력구에서는 되메움재로 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주는 것이다. 향후, 이러한 측면에서 방식사의 활용성을 높이기 위해서는 열저항율에 대한 저감방안 등이 연구되어야 할 것이다.

본 연구에서는 하수관거의 기초나 뒷채움재로 많이 사용되고 있는 기존의 모래를 대체할 재료로써 석분의 적용가능성을 평가하기 위하여 석분재료에 대한 기본적인 물리적, 역학적인 특성실험을 실시하였다. 석분의 입도분포는 모래보다 더 좋은 상태를 나타내며, 다짐실험 결과도 모래보다 강도특성이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실험결과로부터 하수관거의 기초 및 뒷채움재로써 석분은 현장적용성이 우수한 것으로 평가되며, 이를 뒷받침하기 위하여 직접전단시험, 삼축압축시험을 실시하여 강도특성을 분석한 결과 모래의 경우와 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 석분의 경우 일축압축강도 특성은 시간이 지남에 따라 점차 증가하는 경향을 보이지만 6~7일 경과 후에는 거의 일정한 값을 보이는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 실험결과로부터 석분도 하수관거의 기초 및 뒷채움재로 충분히 활용할 수 있는 재료로 평가되었다.

The hydraulic conductivities in the bentonite-sand mixtures with high density were measured, and the effects of sand content and dry density on the hydraulic conductivity were investigated. The hydraulic conductivities of the bentonite-sand mixtures with a dry density of 1.6 Mg/㎥ and 1.8 Mg/㎥ are less than 10$^{-11}$ m/s when the sand content is not higher than 70 wt%. However at the sand content of 90 wt%, the hydraulic conductivity increases rapidly At the same dry density, the logarithm of hydraulic conductivity increases linearly with increasing sand content. The hydraulic conductivity of the bentonite-sand mixture can be explained by the concept of effective clay dry density, and using this concept, the hydraulic conductivities for the mixtures with various sand contents and dry densities can be estimated.

The purpose of this study is to present the application of WFS co-mixtures for retaining wall as flowable backfill. The fly ash, generated at the Tae-An thermoelectric power plant, was used in this research and was classified as Class F. Green Sand, Furane Sand, and Coated Sand, which had been used at a foundry located in Pusan, were used. Couple of laboratory tests and small scale retaining wall tests were performed to obtain the physical properties of the WFS co-mixtures and the possibility of backfill materials of retaining wall. The range of permeability for all the co-mixtures was from 3.0${\times}$10$\^$-3/ cm/s to 6.0${\times}$10$\^$-5/ cm/s. The unconfined strength of the 28-day cured specimens reached around 550kPa. Results of the consolidated-undrained triaxial test showed that the internal friction angle is between 33.5$^{\circ}$ and 41.8$^{\circ}$. The lateral earth pressure against wall decreased up to 80% of initial pressure within a 12 hours and the total lateral earth pressure is less than that of typical granular soil. It was enough to construct the backfill for the standard retaining of 6m with just two steps, like fill the co-mixtures for half of retaining wall, and then fill the others after 1 day. The stability of retaining wall for overturning and sliding increased as the curing time elapsed.

Millions of scrap tires are discarded annually in Turkey. The bulk of which are currently landfilled or stockpiled. These tires consume valuable landfill space or if improperly disposed, create a fire hazard and provide a prolific breeding ground for rats and mosquitoes. Used tires pose both a serious public and environmental health problem which means that economically feasible alternatives for scrap tire disposal must be found. Some of the current uses of scrap tires are tire-derived fuel, creating barrier reefs and as an asphalt additive in the form of crumb rubber. However, there is a much need for the development of additional uses for scrap tires. One development the creation of shreds from scrap tires that are coarse grained, free draining and have a low compacted density thus offering significant advantages for use as lightweight subgrade fill and backfill material. This paper reports a comprehensive laboratory study that was performed to evaluate the use of a shredded tire-sand mixture as a backfill material in trench conditions. A steel frame test tank with glass walls was created to replicate a classical trench section in field conditions. The results of the test demonstrated that shredded tires mixed with sand have a definite potential to be effectively used as backfill material for buried pipe installations.

The objective of this study is to present engineering properties required in use of co-mixtures of fly ash and WFS(Waste Foundry Sand)'s, which are Presently used as fill or (lovable backfill. The fly ash, generated at the Tae-An thermoelectric power plant was used in this research and was classified as Class F. Green Sand, Furane Sand, and Coated Sand, which had been used at a foundry located in Pusan, were used. Laboratory experiments were peformed to obtain the physical properties of the co-mixture of fly ash and WFS. The range of permeability for all the co-mixtures was from 3.0×10/sup -3/㎝/s to 6.0×10/sup -5/㎝/s. The unconfined strength of the 7-day cured specimens composed of Green Sand reached 94% of that of 28-day cured specimens but for the 7-day cured specimens composed of, respectively, Furnace Sand and Coated Sand, only 64% and 66% of the strength of the 28-day cured specimens were reached. Results of the consolidated-untrained triaxial test showed that the specimens composed of Furnace Sand showed a distinct increase of the internal friction angle, while the other specimens showed negligible increase. In the case of 28-day cured specimens, specimens composed of Furnace Sand showed an internal friction angle of 41.8°, while specimens of Green and Coated Sand showed those of 33.5° and 35.0°, respectively. From the shrinkage test, the shrinkage ratios of all specimens did not exceed 0.25%.

The temperature of subsea pipeline, approximately as high as $100^{\circ}C$, is significantly higher than the temperature of surrounding sea water and sediment. In this reason, heat can be lost from the subsea pipeline to cause serious operation problem. Therefore it is important that the subsea pipeline must be designed to ensure that heat loss is small enough. Heat loss of unburied pipeline is higher than buried pipeline. For that purpose, trenching and backfilling system is a commonly used method for maintaining flow assurance in subsea pipeline installation. For this commonly used method, knowing thermal conductivity of backfill is essential to protect a heat loss of pipeline. This paper presents thermal conductivity of backfill soil using laboratory model test and numerical analysis for various backfill. In conclusion, it can be seen that higher the sand content of the man-made backfill sample, the higher the thermal conductivity. On the other hand, as the water content increases, the thermal conductivity becomes smaller.
