Use of geotextile as reinforcement material to improve the weak soil is a popular method these days. Tensile strength of geotextile and the soil-geotextile interaction are the major factors which influence the improvement of the soil. Change in fine content within the sand can change the interface behavior between soil and geotextile. In the present paper, the bearing capacity of unreinforced and geotextile-reinforced sand with different percentages of fines has been studied. A series of model tests have been carried out and the load settlement curves are obtained. The ultimate load carrying capacity of unreinforced and reinforced sand with different percentages of fines is compared. The interface behavior of sand and geotextile with various percentages of fines is also studied. It is observed that sand having around 5% of fine is suitable or permissible for bearing capacity improvement due to the application of geosynthetic reinforcement. The effectiveness of the reinforcement in load carrying capacity improvement decreases due to the addition of excessive amount of fines.

스톤컬럼 공법의 침하량 저감과 지지력 증진 효과를 파악하고자 연약한 준설매립 지반에 쇄석재료와 슬래그 재료를 이용하여 시험시공 후 지하수위계측 및 현장시험을 진행하였다. 현장실험 결과, 지지력 증진 및 침하량 저감 효과가 파악되었으며 상재하중 없이도 지하수위는 저하되는 양상을 보였다. 이는 스톤컬럼 공법이 밀도증가 측면과 더불어 액상화 저항에 우수함을 나타낸다. 일반적인 이론식을 이용하여 원지반 및 복합지반에 대한 침하량과 지지력 산정 결과, 스톤컬럼 공법은 2.7~5.7배의 지지력 증진 효과와 2~3.5배의 침하량 저감 효과가 있는 것으로 판단되었다.

Waste landfill is so loose that it may cause the insufficient bearing capacity and the differential settlement. And so, characteristics and conditions of the ground should be considered in applications of ground improvement in waste landfill. In this paper, analysis of field tests as the static loading test and the bearing capacity test were performed. In result, PG(Pack Grouting) pile method is proved effective and economic, because it could bring about the increase of end bearing capacity, the prevention of differential settlement and increase of density by expansion of pile.

성토지반의 지지력을 향상시키기 위하여 지반개량이나 다짐과 같은 일반적인 방법들이 많이 이용되고 있다. 하지만, 최근에는 내구성이 크고 강한 합성수지와 같은 재료들이 개발되어 실용화됨으로서, 보강토공법이 널리 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 한층의 지오텍스타일로 보강된 모래지반상의 대상기초에 대한 모형실험을 평면변형률 상태에서 실시하여, 지오텍스타일의 설치위치와 길이, 강도의 변화에 따른 지지력의 증대효과와 지반의 거동을 관찰하였다.

Stone column is one of the soft ground improvement method, which enhances ground conditions through ground water draining, settlement reducing and bearing capacity increasing complexly by using crushed stone instead of sand in general vertical drain methods. In recent, general construction material, sand is in short of supply, because of the unbalance of demand and supply. Also, the bearing capacity improving effect of stone column method is needed in many cases so the bearing capacity estimation is considered as important point. Nevertheless, adequate estimation methods to predict bearing capacity of stone column considering stone column and improving ground behavior reciprocally is not yet prepared. To contribute this situation, bearing capacity behavior of stone column were simulated as numerically on various property cases of crushed stone and surrounded ground. Through the numerical analysis of simulation results, bearing capacity behavior prediction formula was suggested. This formula was verified by comparing the prediction result with in situ test.

Recently, auger-drilled piling has been widely used in urban area to reduce the air pollution and noise. But this construction method that its basic theory was introduced from Japan may be changed depending on the each piling company and construction field condition. Therefore, the design code and management method for auger-drilled piling is not defined yet. Especially, the lack of research on the bearing capacity of auger-drilled piling leads to the absence of rational bearing capacity prediction equation. This paper presents the optimum design code and economical construction method of the auger-drilled piling by proposing the new bearing capacity prediction equation based on the site specific soil types and construction conditions. In this paper, existing bearing capacity prediction equations and current pile load tests were compared. And the end bearing capacity and skin friction characteristics were also analyzed by comparing the results of CAPWAP. From the results of analysis, a reliable bearing capacity prediction equation considered soil types is proposed.

In this research problems of recent design methods and their improvement for SIP in domestic areas were studied by using the characteristics of load-settlement curves and bearing capacity from field loading tests. Elastic and plastic settlement for total settlement in each loading step conducted domestic areas had a tendency. From these tendency and bearing capacity determined by loading tests we can ascertain that empirical chart can be assistant tool in SIP design. It showes that SIP design using N-value in domestic area with soil condition of grarute type results in very conservative bearing capacity, to be opposed in soil with unprofitable geological condition the design can be insecure. Also, we can ascertain that Meyerhof's bearing capacity used modified N-value on tip part of pile is more applicable than recent design method where tip bearing capacity is 20NAp N-value limited to 50. These results show that modified design method can he more economic than before because of using pile's bearing capacity to tolerable load of pile material.

Sand drain as a vertical drainage is widely used in soft ground improvement. Recently, sand, the principal source of sand drain, is running out. A laboratory model test was carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. Though which the characteristics of gravel are compared to those of sand for engineering purpose. According to the test, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel rile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. As a result, it is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material. Gravel material seems better than sand material in bearing capacity and it is found that bearing capacity is larger when gravel is used as compaction pile than as drain from in-situ test on bearing capacity. Increase of bearing capacity with gravel pile means an effect of composite ground by stiffness of gravel material. It can lie supposed to use gravel pile instead of sand pile in view of consolidation effect and bearing capacity.

연약지반 개량공법의 하나인 쇄석기둥은 일반 연직배수공법에 주로 사용되는 모래재료 대신에 쇄석재료를 사용하며 배수 및 침하량 감소, 지지력 증대의 복합 효과에 의해 지반을 개량한다. 최근 들어 대규모 토목공사에 사용되는 건설재료로서 막대한 양이 소요되는 모래는 현재 수요는 급증하고 구득은 갈수록 어려워져 재료는 고갈상태에 이르고 있는 실정으로서 쇄석기둥공법의 적용이 더욱 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 특히, 최근 들어 쇄석기둥의 지지력 보강효과를 이용하는 경향이 증가함에 따라 지지력 보강 예측이 중요한 관심사항으로 대두되었으나 아직까지 주변지반과 쇄석기둥 구조체의 상호 거동을 합리적으로 반영한 산정식이 제시되어있지 못한 상태이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 연약지반상에 조성된 쇄석기둥에 의한 개량효과중 지지력 증대효과를 규명하기 위해 쇄석기둥의 지지력 거동을 수치해석적으로 시뮬레이션하였다. 이렇게 함으로써 쇄석기둥이 설치되는 원지반의 물성과 쇄석기둥의 물성을 반영하면서 하중-침하거동을 파악하고자 하였다. 수치해석 시뮬레이션에 의한 지지력 거동을 원지반조건, 쇄석기둥 조건별로 분석하여 쇄석기둥의 지지력 거동식을 제안하고 제안된 지지력 예측방법과 거동을 계측한 실측치와의 검증을 실시하였다.
