Durability of tunnel drains is important, because the accumulation of groundwater around the tunnel due to clogging of filter or reduction of discharge capacity of drain causes reduction of the life time of tunnel linings. In this paper, clogging and discharge capacity of drain and filter of tunnels are evaluated using a gradient ratio test and filter design criteria. The results of the gradient ratio test showed that gradient ratio(GR) is high when fine content is high in the soil samples and equivalent opening size(EOS) of filter materials is small. Measured GR was less than allowable critical gradinet ratio : 3.0, which is the clogging criteria of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The interaction between ground water and structure is complicated behavior which cannot be easily investigated In the laboratory and monitored in the fields. In this study numerical simulation of the interactive behavior was performed using sophisticated coupled-finite element method. Hydraulic behavior of structure is modeled using solid elements with finite Permeability. Recovery of ground water table in the long-term is considered by controlling hydraulic boundary conditions. The results showed that the interaction effect is significant. Particularly non-symmetry in the lining permeability resulted in highly unbalanced pore water pressure which may cause detrimental effects on inner linings of tunnels acting as drains.

우리나라에서 흔히 채택하고 있는 배수형 터널은 배수시스템 열화 혹은 수압작용에 따라 누수가 발생하는 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 누수는 소량일 경우 외관으로 드러나지 않아, 육안으로 확인할 단계가 되면 이미 라이닝 손상 혹은 설비에 영향을 미치는 상황이 되어 초기에 인지하고 대책을 마련하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 운영 중인 배수터널의 누수거동을 확인하기 위해서는 터널을 훼손하여 배면을 조사하여야 하는데, 이는 터널 유지관리상 허용되기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 비파괴 물리탐사법인 전기비저항 탐사법을 이용하여 터널의 방수막을 훼손하지 않고, 누수여부를 파악하는 새로운 시도를 하였다. 모형 라이닝을 제작하여 습윤정도, 혹은 열화에 따른 누수거동을 탐사한 결과 전기비저항 탐사법이 라이팅 배수기능모니터링 혹은 누수조사에 유용하게 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 이 방법은 라이닝 누수 보수공사 후, 추가 누수여부의 조사 및 보수공사 점검에도 유용하게 활용될 수 있음을 보였다.

Incheon Bridge, 18.4 km long sea-crossing bridge, will be opened to the traffic in October 2009 and this will be the new landmark of the gearing up north-east Asia as well as the largest & longest bridge of Korea. Incheon Bridge is the integrated set of several special featured bridges including a magnificent cable-stayed girder bridge which has a main span of 800 m width to cross the navigation channel in and out of the Port of Incheon. Incheon Bridge is making an epoch of long-span bridge designs thanks to the fully application of the AASHTO LRFD (load & resistance factor design) to both the superstructures and the substructures. A state-of-the-art of the geotechnologies which were applied to the Incheon Bridge construction project is introduced. The most Large-diameter drilled shafts were penetrated into the bedrock to support the colossal superstructures. The bearing capacity and deformational characteristics of the foundations were verified through the world's largest static pile load test. 8 full-scale pilot piles were tested in both offshore site and onshore area prior to the commencement of constructions. Compressible load beyond 30,000 tonf pressed a single 3 m diameter foundation pile by means of bi-directional loading method including the Osterberg cell techniques. Detailed site investigation to characterize the subsurface properties had been carried out. Geotextile tubes, tied sheet pile walls, and trestles were utilized to overcome the very large tidal difference between ebb and flow at the foreshore site. 44 circular-cell type dolphins surround the piers near the navigation channel to protect the bridge against the collision with aberrant vessels. Each dolphin structure consists of the flat sheet piled wall and infilled aggregates to absorb the collision impact. Geo-centrifugal tests were performed to evaluate the behavior of the dolphin in the seabed and to verify the numerical model for the design. Rip-rap embankments on the seabed are expected to prevent the scouring of the foundation. Prefabricated vertical drains, sand compaction piles, deep cement mixings, horizontal natural-fiber drains, and other subsidiary methods were used to improve the soft ground for the site of abutments, toll plazas, and access roads. Light-weight backfill using EPS blocks helps to reduce the earth pressure behind the abutment on the soft ground. Some kinds of reinforced earth like as MSE using geosynthetics were utilized for the ring wall of the abutment. Soil steel bridges made of corrugated steel plates and engineered backfills were constructed for the open-cut tunnel and the culvert. Diverse experiences of advanced designs and constructions from the Incheon Bridge project have been propagated by relevant engineers and it is strongly expected that significant achievements in geotechnical engineering through this project will contribute to the national development of the longspan bridge technologies remarkably.

단일코어 연직 배수재 공법은 현재까지 폭넓게 사용되는 연약지반 개량공법이다. 그러나 얇은 플라스틱 보드 형태의 PBD 구조로 인해 압밀 도중 큰 횡 방향 토압과 이에 따른 necking 현상이 발생하고 이는 PBD의 통수능을 감소시킨다. 본 연구 대상인 부산신항만 조성 공사현장은 대심도의 연약지반으로서 PBD 설치 시, 큰 횡 방향 토압에 의한 통수능 감소를 예상되어 통수능 감소현상을 극복하기 위하여 이중코어 PBD를 도입, 시공하고, 기존 형태의 단일코어 PBD를 동시에 설치한 후, 현장에서의 배수재 성능을 비교분석하였다. 실내실험으로는 개량 델프트 실험을 수행하여 연직배수재의 통수능을 측정하고, 현장에서 채취한 시료를 이용해 기본 물성실험 및 CRS 압밀시험을 수행하여 수치 해석 프로그램인 ILLICON에 적용하여 침하거동 양상을 파악하였다. 개량 델프트 실험에서는 이중코어 PBD의 통수능이 단일코어 PBD보다 높게 측정되었으나, 현장 계측 및 수치해석에서는 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 이는 일발전인 대심도 지반에서 압밀시 발생되는 물의 배수량은 상대적으로 작은 단일코어 PBD의 통수능 범위 보다도 작기 때문에 실제 현장에서는 단일코어 PBD와 이중코어 PBD의 성능차이가 없음을 확인하였다.
