In this study, S-wave velocity range is gauged in every field test method at the total 5 locations in the marine deposits in Incheon area. field test method is accomplished the SPT(Standard Penetration Test), CPT(Cone Penetration Test), SPS(Suspension PS Logger), SCPT (Seismic Cone Penetration Test) and so on. The S-wave velocity of SCPT in the downhole test method is measured lower than SPS logger at the N value > 15 range. But at the N value < 15 range, SPS logger and SCPT result is measured same. In this result, although the soil strength of the downhole test method increased, the rate of S-wave velocity is tend to be slowed. This result shows that the downhole test is difficult to apply at the place that the intensity of soil is more extreme and harder soil. And it shows that the existing Imai(1982) type that is mostly used within the country is not suitable for the marine deposits. Thus, the empirical formula that can show the range of S-wave velocity in each N value for domestic soil is needed.

Geotechnical data contributes substantially to the cost of engineering projects due to increasing cost of site investigations. Existing information in the form of soil maps can save considerable time and expenses while deciding the scope and extent of site exploration for a proposed project site. This paper presents spatial interpolation of data obtained from soil investigation reports of different construction sites and development of soil maps for geotechnical characterization of Multan area using ArcGIS. The subsurface conditions of the study area have been examined in terms of soil type and standard penetration resistance. The Inverse Distance Weighting method in the Spatial Analyst extension of ArcMap10 has been employed to develop zonation maps at different depths of the study area. Each depth level has been interpolated as a surface to create zonation maps for soil type and standard penetration resistance. Correlations have been presented based on linear regression of standard penetration resistance values with depth for quick estimation of strength and stiffness of soil during preliminary planning and design stage of a proposed project in the study area. Such information helps engineers to use data derived from nearby sites or sites of similar subsoils subjected to similar geological process to build a preliminary ground model for a new site. Moreover, reliable information on geometry and engineering properties of underground layers would make projects safer and economical.

고전압 아크 방전에 의한 플라즈마 발파의 유체 침투 효율을 검증하기 위해 실험실 규모의 토사 시료에 대하여 발파 시험을 실시하였다. 이 연구를 위해 대용량 축전기가 포함된 플라즈마 발파 장치와 직경 80 cm, 높이 60 cm 크기의 컬럼형 토사 시료를 제작하였다. 토사 시료로는 사질토와 실트를 7:3 비율로 섞은 A 시료 7개와 9:1 비율로 섞은 B 시료 3개가 제작되었다. A 시료에 플라즈마 발파 없이 수압만으로 유체를 주입했을 때는 시추공 주변으로 국소적인 침투만 발생되었고 침투면적비는 5% 이하로 분석되었다. 플라즈마 발파에 의한 유체 침투 시험은 1 kJ, 4 kJ 그리고 9 kJ의 방전 에너지로 실시되었다. A 시료에 대한 플라즈마 발파 시험에서 유체의 침투면적비는 1회만 발파하였을 때는 16~25%이고 5회 연속 발파 시에는 30~48%로 분석되어, 수압만으로 유체를 주입했을 때보다 침투면적이 최대 9.6배까지 넓어졌다. B 시료에 대한 5회 연속 플라즈마 발파 시험에서 유체의 침투면적비는 33~59%로 분석되어 동일 조건의 A 시료 시험에 비해 침투면적이 1.1~1.4배 정도 넓어졌다. 이러한 결과는 플라즈마 발파 시에 방전 에너지가 클수록, 발파 횟수가 증가할 수록 유체의 침투면적이 증가하며, 투수성이 큰 토양에서 플라즈마 발파가 더욱 효과적임을 보여준다. 유체 침투 효과를 삼차원적인 부피로 분석하기 위해 유체 침투반경을 계산하였다. 수압으로만 유체를 주입했을 때의 침투반경은 9 cm인 반면에, 9 kJ의 에너지로 5회 발파 시에는 침투반경이 27~30 cm로 계산되어 유체 침투 효과가 최대 333%까지 증가되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 투수성이 낮은 실제 오염토양에서 원위치 토양 세정을 실시할 때 플라즈마 발파 기술을 적용하면, 세정제의 전달범위가 증가되어 정화효율이 개선될 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.

Due to climate change and aging of reservoirs, damage to embankment slopes is increasing. However, the safety diagnosis of the reservoir slope is mainly conducted by visual observation, and the time and economic cost are formidable to apply soil mechanical tests and slope stability analysis. Accordingly, this study presented a predicting method for the compaction and strength characteristics of the reservoir embankment soil using a portable static cone penetration test. The predicted items consisted of dry density, cohesion, and internal friction angle, which are the main factors of slope stability analysis. Portable static cone penetration tests were performed at 19 reservoir sites, and prediction equations were constructed from the correlation between penetration resistance data and test results of soil samples. The predicted dry density and strength parameters showed a correlation with test results between R² 0.40 and 0.93, and it was found to replace the test results well when used as input data for slope stability analysis (R² 0.8134 or more, RMSE 0.0320 or less). In addition, the prediction equations for the minimum safety factor of the slope were presented using the penetration resistance and gradient. As a result of comparing the predicted safety factor with the analysis results, R² 0.5125, RMSE 0.0382 in coarse-grained soil, R² 0.4182 and RMSE 0.0628 in fine-grained soil. The results of this study can be used as a way to improve the existing slope safety diagnosis method, and are expected to be used to predict the characteristics of various soils and inspect slopes.

This study was carried out to develop a self-propelled type explosive subsoiler for improving the root zone soil conditions in orchard and other forest fields. Prototype was designed to be able to inject air and other soil improving material such as lime into soil at the same time, and thus improve the air permeability and drainage of orchard soils to promote the root growth of tree for high quality fruit production. Soil penetration device of explosive subsoiler is composed of air hammer, penetration rob and air injection nozzle. To support the soil penetration device of explosive subsoiler to penetrate vertically, modified Scott-Russel mechanism was used. Timing control device for simultaneous injection of soil improving material with air was attached to the out side wall of air cylinder and as the cylinder move, the soil improving material was injected into soil at the same time. Turning radius of prototype was 2.2-2.3 m with good mobility in sloped land. It took approximately 1 minute for lime injection system to reach the optimum pressure of 9.9 kg/$cm^2$, average 10-20 seconds were required to rupture soil with the depth of 50 cm and 2-3 seconds were required for explosion, so all in all about 1 minute and 20 seconds were required for one cycle of explosion. Maximum soil rupture depth and diameter were 50 cm and 3-4 m respectively depending on the soil type and soil moisture content. For final design of explosive subsoiler inclination angle of lime hopper was increased from 60 degree to 70 degree and the shape of hopper was changed from rectangular cone to circular cone to solve the clogging problem of lime at out let. Agitating system operated by compressed air was attached to the metering device of the prototype, thus more than 90 cc of lime was discharged per cycle from metering device without clogging problems.

The Standard penetration test determines the type of soil according to soil bearing capacity, and this classifies the subsoil into many layers. Construction project managers are willing to know the depth of the present types of subsoil on site in order to make plans on earthwork stage during excavation. However the standard penetration test may not provide accurate information on subsoil type due to incorrect spacing. To solve this problem, this study propose a conceptual algorithm for determining the spacing of standard penetration test spots to essentially tests relevant locations on which to be applied the standard penetration test. This provides the acquirement of the accurate layered model volume of earthwork revised into geological columnar section. This algorithm will determine the appropriate standard penetration test spots spacing on a given size of site to optimize the accuracy of the earthwork volume, time and cost.

In No. 1 tunnel for Kwnagju urban subway construction, net penetration rate of the shield TBM was analyzed. This tunnel of 540 m length is located in soil layers at starting and in hard rocks such as amphibolite and granitic gneiss at ending with 84 m length. The net penetration rate was dropped down to 2∼11 cm/hr in rock while 50∼80 cm/hr in soil. Theoretical penetration rate is analyzed in conditions of machine and rock in order to compare the actual net penetration rate. The relationships between net penetration rate and thrust force is also investigated in this report.

Membrane penetration is the most important factor influencing the measurement of volume change for triaxial consolidated-drained shear test for coarse-grained soil. The effective pressure p, average particle size $d_{50}$, thickness $t_m$ and elastic modulus $E_m$ of membrane, contact area between membrane and soil $A_m$ as well as the initial void ratio e are the major factors influencing membrane penetration. According to the membrane deformation model given by Kramer and Sivaneswaran, an analytical solution of the membrane penetration considering the initial void ratio is deduced using the energy conservation law. The basic equations from theory of plates and shells and the elastic mechanics are employed during the derivation. To verify the presented solution, isotropic consolidation tests of a coarse-grained soil are performed by using the method of embedding different diameter of iron rods in the triaxial samples, and volume changes due to membrane penetration are obtained. The predictions from presented solution and previous analytical solutions are compared with the test results. It is found that the prediction from presented analytical solution agrees well with the test results.
