  • Background and objects: Soil contamination caused by CaCl2 that is used to deice slippery roads in winter is now recognized as one of the major causes of damage of roadside plants. The aim of this study is to identify the salt mitigation effects of planting Chrysanthemum zawadskii and using a soil conditioner. Methods: The study was conducted at the site where Pinus densiflora f. multicaulis was planted on the roadside between Konkuk University Sageori and Danwol Samgeori located in Chungju-si. We classified the soils collected from the field experimental site according to the degree of the damage caused by deicing agents and divided the site into six blocks of three 80 × 80 cm plots replicated by treatment type. Three selected plots were treated with loess-balls on the soil surface (high salinity with loess-balls, medium salinity with loess-balls, low salinity with loess-balls) and three were left as an untreated control (H = high salinity, M = medium salinity, L = low salinity). The soil properties were measured including pH, EC and exchangeable cations as well as the growth of Chrysanthemum zawadskiia. Results: In the results of soil analysis, pH before planting Chrysanthemum zawadskiia was 6.39-6.74 and in September, five months after planting, the acidity was reduced to 5.43-5.89. Electrical conductivity (EC) was measured to be H > M > L with the higher degree of damage by deicing agents. The analysis of deicing exchangeable cations showed that the content of Ca2+ of soils were significantly correlated to deicing exchangeable cations (Ca2+, Na+, Mg2+) in the shoot part of Chrysanthemum zawadskii. The loess-ball treatment showed a lower content of deicing exchangeable cations than the treatment where Chrysanthemum zawadskiia was planted. Conclusion: In this study, the use of a new system made of loess-balls is proposed as a soil conditioner to protect soils from the adverse effects of road deicing salts. These data suggest that treatment of soil conditioners and planting Chrysanthemum zawadskiia are effective in mitigation of salt stress on the soils damaged by deicing agents.

  • 동절기 피해는 겨울철에 나타나는 피해의 형태로 유형에 따라 저온피해, 건조피해, 관부수화, 그리고 동절기 병 발생등이 있다. 저온피해는 대기온도와 토양온도에 의해 그 피해가 발생하는데 토양온도가 관부의 생육에 더 큰 영향을 미치기 때문에 그 피해의 정도가 더 심하게 발생한다. 관부수화는 세포내결빙에 의해 발생하는 피해로 세포막을 파괴하며 결과적으로 세포내 조직을 탈수시키게 된다. 저온건조는 동절기 기간동안 식물체의 잎 혹은 식물전체에 건조로 인한 피해가 나타나 고사에 이르게 되는 피해를 말한다. 동절기 피해를 예방하기 위해 가을철 인산과 칼륨의 시비가 동절기 피해에 대한 내성을 증진시키는 역할을 하게 된다. 또한 피복재의 사용이 동절기 피해를 최소화 하는 기능을 하는데 그 종류는 여러가지가 있으며 겨울철 잔디위에 쌓인 눈도 대기온도로부터 토양온도를 유지하는 피복재 역할을 하게 된다. 동절기 피해를 최소화 하기 위한 방법으로 통기와 배토의 방법이 있다. 통기와 배토는 모두 주로 대취층의 두께를 줄이기 위한 방법으로 사용이 되고 또한 겨울철 배토를 위해 사용되는 검은색 모래는 토양에 잔존해 있는 얼음을 녹이고 토양온도를 유지해주는 역할을 하게 되므로 피복재와 같이 동절기 피해를 최소화 하는 역할을 하게 된다.

  • 본 논문은 터널굴착으로 인해 발생된 인접지반에서의 지반변위가 구조물에 미치는 영향을 시공조건(지반손실) 및 지반의 특성을 달리하면서 지반-구조물 상호작용이 고려된 상태에서 조사한 것이다. 터널굴착에 의해 발생된 지반변위에 노출된 4층 블록식구조물이 서로 다른 시공조건(지반손실) 및 지반조건에 노출될 때 발생되는 구조물 거동이 수치해석을 통해 조사되었다. 수치해석을 위한 구조물은 소요전단 및 인장강도 이상의 응력이 발생할 때 구조물에 실제크랙이 발생될 수 있도록 개별요소법(DEM)을 이용하여 모델링되었다. 터널굴착유발 지반변위에 노출된 4층 블록식구조물의 거동 및 손상정도가 지반변위의 크기에 따라 조사되었으며, 발생된 구조물의 거동 및 손상정도는 구조물에 발생한 변형, 크랙크기 및 분포를 고려하여 시공조건(지반손실) 및 지반조건별로 비교되었다. 뿐만아니라, 다양한 시공조건(지반손실) 및 지반조건의 변화에 의해 구조물에 유발될 수 있는 손상정도의 크기가 손상도 예측기준(Son and Cording, 2005)을 사용하여 제시되었다. 이러한 결과들은 향후 터널굴착으로 인해 유발되는 인접구조물의 손상을 제어하고 최소화하는데 필요한 정보를 제공할 것이다.

  • The structure of the collapsible soils, such as decomposed granite soil and loess, were examined by the odeometer test, SEM & XES analysis and static & cyclic triaxial test, and hove this structure have influences upon the collapsible behaviour under static and cyclic load was investigated. The study results obtained are as follows; 1. The macropores space of decomposed granite soil (rd=1.50g/cm3) and loess (rd=1.43g/cm3) used in this test were well developed, and showed the behaviour of collapsible soil. 2. Collapsible soil has high resistance on the strain under natural moisture content, however, the resistance on the strain was sharply decreased by the absorption and increasing load since its special structure was destructed. 3. Under the static load, the strain of collapsible soil was high by the viscous flow of the cyclic bonds with time lapse, but Infer the cyclic load, the strain of collapsible soil was low since the tinge needed to destruct the bonding force of clay was not enough. 4. The understanding about the cyclic behaviour of collapsible soil may be helpful to predict the elastic & residual strain of the foundations by the earthquake together with the damage by the additional failure.

  • Due to the importance of soil reinforcement using geotextiles in geotechnical engineering, study and investigation into long-term performance, design life and survivability of geotextiles, especially due to installation damage are necessary and will affect their economy. During installation, spreading and compaction of backfill materials, geotextiles may encounter severe stresses which can be higher than they will experience in-service. This paper aims to investigate the installation damage of geotextiles, in order to obtain a good approach to the estimation of the material's strength reduction factor. A series of full-scale tests were conducted to simulate the installation process. The study includes four deliberately poorly-graded backfill materials, two kinds of subgrades with different CBR values, three nonwoven needle-punched geotextiles of classes 1, 2 and 3 (according to AASHTO M288-08) and two different relative densities for the backfill materials. Also, to determine how well or how poorly the geotextiles tolerated the imposed construction stresses, grab tensile tests and visual inspections were carried out on geotextile specimens (before and after installation). Visual inspections of the geotextiles revealed sedimentation of fine-grained particles in all specimens and local stretching of geotextiles by larger soil particles which exerted some damage. A regression model is proposed to reliably predict the installation damage reduction factor. The results, obtained by grab tensile tests and via the proposed models, indicated that the strength reduction factor due to installation damage was reduced as the median grain size and relative density of the backfill decreases, stress transferred to the geotextiles' level decreases and as the as-received grab tensile strength of geotextile and the subgrades' CBR value increase.

  • The challenges involved with fatigue damage assessment of steel catenary riser (SCR) in the touchdown zone (TDZ) are primarily due to the non-linear behaviour of the SCR-seabed interaction, considerable uncertainty in SCR-seabed interaction modelling and geotechnical parameters. The issue of fatigue damage induced by the cyclic movements of the SCR with the seabed has acquired prominence with the touch down point (TDP) interaction in the TDZ. Therefore, the SCR-seabed response is critical for reliable estimation of fatigue life in the TDZ. Various design approaches pertaining to the lateral pipe-soil resistance model are discussed. These techniques have been applied in the finite element model that can be used to analyse the lateral SCR-seabed interaction under hydrodynamic loading. This study investigates the sensitivity of fatigue performance to geotechnical parameters through a parametric study. In this study, global analyses are performed to assess the influence of vertical linear seabed springs, the lateral seabed model and the non-linear seabed model, including trench evolution into seabed, seabed normalised stiffness, re-penetration offset parameter and soil suction resistance ratio, on the fatigue life of SCRs in the TDZ.

  • Although a forest damage of large area due to air pollution has not yet been found in Korea, declines of Korean red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.), the most common coniferous species, have been locally reported. To evaluate the effect of air pollution and acid deposition on the forests, SO$_2$ concentration, acid load, soil pH and tree decline were monitored for 13 years from 1988 to 2001 in Namsan, Doowang and Gyebangsan with the gradient of air pollution. During the study period, annual mean SO$_2$ concentration in Namsan, Doowang and Gyebangsan were 14 ppb, 13 ppb and 6 ppb, respectively. Annual mean acid loads in Namsan and Doowang were three to four times more than that in Gyebangsan. As respected, forest surface soils in Namsan and Doowang were acidified to pH 4.1 and 4.3, whereas that in Gyebangsan showed normal value as pH 5.4. On the other hand, decline degrees of Korean red pines in Namsan and Doowang in both 1996 and 2001 were higher than those in Gyebangsan. It is reasonable that the severer tree declines in Namsan and Doowang could be closely related with the higher air pollution, acid load, and the effects (possibly Ca deficit and Al toxicity) of soil acidification.

  • Deformations in soils induced by dynamic loads cause damage to the structures above the soil layers. It is important for geotechnical engineering practice that how the soil behaves due to repeated loads and the necessary precautions to be taken accordingly. Turkey is one of the most important seismic regions in Europe and earthquake studies to be conducted in this area are intended to reduce the damage as a result of taking the necessary measures. To determine the properties of soils under dynamic loads, stress-controlled dynamic triaxial and resonant column tests can be performed. In this study, these experiments were implemented in the laboratory on the clayey sand soil samples obtained from Bilecik Söğüt. To evaluate the effects of the confining pressure and rate of loading on the dynamic behavior of soils, samples were dynamically loaded by different rates at varying confining pressures. As a result, the changes in stress-strain properties of soils under dynamic loads were investigated. The alteration in behavior in terms of modulus reduction and damping ratios was obtained to vary a lot with the change of the lateral pressure on soil along with the frequency of the load.
