In this study, it was proposed that an equation for predicting consolidation settlement on soft clay ground, which separate total settlement into primary and secondary consolidation settlement equation. The consolidation settlements by the proposed equation and by the measured settlements from laboratory model test were compared and verified for its application. It was appeared that the proposed equation from the laboratory model test approach to be more realistic comparing to !the result of Terzaghi's equation. From the above application, it was concluded that the final settlement prediction by. the Hyperbolic, Asaoka methods is needed to the initial settlement but the proposed equation could be much applicable in the lacking condition of measured data of the initial period.

Consolidation settlements on soft clay are often large and potentially damaging to structures. Currently, large-scale projects are in progress in Korea. These structures will be constructed on both thick and soft clay layers, and so the accurate evaluation of magnitude of settlement is required at every step in design and construction. Especially, secondary compression play an important role in consolidation settlements on soft clay. Generally, the magnitudes of secondary compression are evaluated by laboratory and in-situ consolidation tests or by empirical $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ relationships. The empirical $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ may not be only economical, but a fast and powerful tool in estimating secondary consolidation settlement. However, databases of the $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ relationship for sites in Korea are currently insufficient. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$, on marine clay near the southern sea in Korea. In this study a series of incremental loading consolidation tests (measuring base pore water pressure) are performed. It was found that the $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ on undisturbed marine clay equaled 0.0397. This value is similar to the value proposed by Mesri and Castro(1987) for inorganic clay and silt. and silt. and silt.

연약 점토지반에서의 2차 압밀침하량은 일반적으로 전체 압밀침하량에 비해 미소하고 2차 압밀까지의 종료시간도 상당히 길기 때문에 이를 무시하는 경우가 많으나 유기질 또는 고압축성의 점토에서는 비교적 큰 침하량이 발생하기 때문에 중요한 공학적 요소로 간주된다. 이러한, 준설매립지반의 잔류침하량을 저감시키기 위해선 선행재하공법(preloading)이 주로 적용된다. 본 연구에서는 대규모 매립지역의 장기침하량을 보다 합리적으로 결정하기 위하여 실내에서 단계재하 압밀시험 및 surcharging 압밀시험 등을 수행하였다. 서해안(인천) 및 남해안(광양) 일대의 대규모 준설매립지역에서 시료를 채취했으며, 이 지역내 준설점토의 2차 압밀특성치들을 실험으로 규명하여 장기침하량 예측에 필요한 기초자료로 활용하였다. 또한, 지리정보체계(geographic information system, 이하 GIS)의 위치정보(수치지도)에 지반정보(속성자료)를 접목시켜 해당지역의 자료를 D/B화 한 후, GIS의 연산기능 및 공간추정 기능 등을 활용함으로써 대규모 준설매립지역의 2차 압밀침하량을 예측하였다.

연약지반에서의 압밀침하는 종종 구조물에 큰 피해를 미친다. 최근 국내에서는 대규모 프로젝트들이 계획 혹은 진행중인데, 이들 구조물들은 두꺼운 연약지반상에 건설되므로 설계나 시공에 있어서 각 단계별 정확한 압밀침하량 예측이 필요하다. 특히, 이러한 연약지반상의 이차압밀은 전체 압밀침하량에서 상당량을 차지하게 된다. 일반적으로 이차압밀은 실내 혹은 현장압밀시험을 통해 산정된다. 경험적인 $C_a/C_c$의 비는 이차압밀량을 예측하는데 있어서 경제적이고 효율적인 수단이 될 수 있을 것이나, 국내의 $C_a/C_c$는 그 데이터 베이스가 매우 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 간극수압을 측정하는 단계재하 압밀시험을 이용하여 남해안 해성점토에 대한 $C_a/C_c$의 비를 0.397로 제시하였다.

This paper presents case history of railway embankment excess settlement on soft clay during service in southern region of Korea. A lot of field observations show that the measured settlements are a lot larger than settlements actually calculated in this area. Back analysis is carried out to verify the soil parameters which are intended to investigate in the subsurface exploration phase and later in a laboratory test program. Recommendations and causes for the engineering practice are suggested to review the determination of excess settlements and, consequently, to improve the settlement prediction. This enormous discrepancy is due to the passing over secondary consolidation, and the design filling did not meet to real construction filling. Immediate settlement could be subsidiary factor of excess settlement.

Consolidation settlements of soft clay are often large and potentially damaging to the structures. Currently, large-scale construction projects for airport and harbor etc. are in progress in Korea and many of these structures will be constructed on thick and soft clay layers. For this kind of ground condition, evaluation of consolidation settlement is required at every design and construction stages, and the magnitude of secondary compression appears to be larger than expected. Generally, the magnitude of secondary compression is evaluated by laboratory and in-situ consolidation tests or by empirical $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$, relationship. The use of empirical value $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ may be economical, fast and powerful tool in estimating secondary consolidation settlement. However, the databases of the $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$, for typical soft clays in Korea are insufficient. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ on marine clay near the southern sea in Korea. A series of incremental loading consolidation tests with measurement of pore water pressure were performed. It was found that the $C_{a/}$ $C_{c}$ of undisturbed marine clay is 0.0397. This value is similar to that proposed by Mesri and Castro(1987) on inorganic clay and silt. and silt. and silt.

Numerouslong-term consolidation and secondary compression settlements may occur in Busan clay, which is astructured soft clay and consists of a thick clay deposit. As a surcharge load is applied to soils, soils experience different stress paths with depth. Therefore, it is necessary to study the long-term consolidation behavior of Busan clay considering stress conditions such as OC or NC states. In this study, a series of long-term consolidation tests were performed to investigate the consolidation characteristics of Busan clay for 20 days. The undisturbed clay samples were taken from 3 sites located in the Nakdong River estuary. The results showed that the creep rate of the Busan clay gradually decreased with time, which indicated that the secondary compression settlement decreased with time. In addition, the experimental results for 3 samples showed that the ratios were about 0.0363 and 0.051, respectively.

The consolidation behavior of Sri Lankan peaty clay is analyzed using an elasto-viscoplastic model. The model can describe the secondary compression behavior as a continuous process and it can also account for the effect of structural degradation on the consolidation analysis. The analysis takes into account all the main features involved in the process of peat consolidation, namely, finite strain, variable permeability, and the secondary compression. The material parameters required for the analysis and the procedures to evaluate them, using both standard laboratory and field tests, are explained. Initially, the model performance is assessed by comparing the predicted and the observed peat consolidation behavior under laboratory conditions. The results indicate that the model is capable of predicting the observed creep settlements and the effect of layer thickness on the settlement analysis of peaty clay. Then, the model is applied to predict the consolidation behavior of peaty clay under different field conditions. In this context, firstly, the one-dimensional field consolidation of peaty clay, brought about by the construction of compacted earth fill, is predicted. Then, the two-dimensional peat foundation response upon embankment loading is simulated. A good agreement is seen in the comparison of the predicted results with the field observations.
