Soil-reinforcement interaction mechanism is an important issue in the design of geosynthetic reinforced soil structures. This mechanism depends on the soil properties, reinforcement characteristics and interaction between these two elements (soil and reinforcement). In this work the shear strength of sand/geotextile interfaces were characterized through direct and simple shear tests. The direct shear tests were performed on a conventional direct shear device and on a large scale direct shear apparatus. Unreinforced sand and one layer reinforced sand specimens were characterized trough simple shear tests. The interfaces shear strength achieved with the large scale direct shear device were slightly larger than those obtained with the conventional direct shear apparatus. Notwithstanding the differences between the shear strength characterization through simple shear and direct shear tests, it was concluded that the shear strength of one layer reinforced sand is similar to the sand/geotextile interface direct shear strength.

In this research, the shear behavior of four different interfaces consisting of 4 types of geosynthetics was examined, and both static and dynamic tests for the geosynthetic interface were conducted. The monotonic shear experiments were performed by using an inclined board apparatus and large direct shear device. The interface shear strength obtained from the inclined board tests were compared with those calculated from large direct shear tests. The comparison results indicated that direct shear tests are likely to overestimate the shear strength in low normal stress range where direct shear tests were not performed. Curved failure envelopes were also obtained for interface cases where two static shear tests were conducted. By comparing the friction angles measured from three tests, i.e. direct shear, inclined board, and shaking table tests, it was found that the friction angle might be different depending on the test method and normal stresses applied in this research. Therefore, it was concluded that the testing method should be determined carefully by considering the type of loads and the normal stress expected in the field.

Concrete-to-concrete bedding planes (CCBP) are observed from time to time due to the multistep hardening process of the concrete materials. In this paper, a series of direct/cyclic shear tests are performed on CCBP under static and dynamic normal load conditions to study the frictional behavior effect by the shear velocities, normal impact frequencies, horizontal shear frequencies, normal impact force amplitudes, horizontal shear displacement amplitudes and normal load levels. According to the experimental results, apparent friction coefficient k ($k=F_{Shear}/F_{Normal}$) shows different patterns under static and dynamic load conditions at the stable shear stage. k is nearly constant in direct shear tests under constant normal load conditions (DCNL), while it is cyclically changing with nearly constant peak value and valley value for the direct shear tests under dynamic normal load conditions (DDNL), where k increases with decreasing normal force and decreases with increasing normal force. Shear velocity has little influence on peak values of k for the DCNL tests, but increasing shear velocity leads to increasing valley values of k for DDNL tests. It is also found that, the valley values of k ascend with decreasing impact normal force amplitude in DDNL tests. The changing pattern of k for the cyclic shear tests under constant and dynamic normal load conditions (CCNL and CDNL tests) are similar, but the peak value of k is smaller in CDNL tests than that in CCNL tests. Normal load levels, shear displacement amplitudes, vertical impact frequencies, horizontal shear frequencies and normal impact force amplitudes have little influence on the changing pattern of k for the cyclic shear tests. The tests of this study provide useful data in understanding the frictional behavior of the CCBP under distinct loadings, and these findings are very important for analyzing the stability of the jointed geotechnical structures under complicated in situ stress conditions.

본 논문은 삼축압축시험(CD)과 개선된 직접전단시험 결과 얻어진 불포화토의 전단특성을 비교분석하여 새로이 개선된 직접전단시험장비의 실용성을 검증하였다. 2010년 경기도 양평군 토석류 발생사면에서 채취한 시료를 대상으로 불포화토 상태의 전단강도실험을 수행하였다. 다른 두 종류의 실험방법에서 낮은 모관흡수력이 작용하는 경우는 전단강도와 선형적인 관계를 나타내며, 모관흡수력의 증가함에 따라 불포화토의 겉보기 점착력 역시 선형적으로 증가하였다. 다른 두 실험장비에 의한 결과를 비교한 결과, 산정된 불포화토의 강도정수($c^{\prime}$, ${\phi}^b$)는 전단 상자의 구속효과가 있는 개선된 직접전단시험에서 다소 크게 나타났다.

댐이나 항만 건설시 재료로 사용되는 조립재는 입자크기가 일반 토사에 비해 매우 크기 때문에 이러한 재료에 대해서 전단시험을 수행할 때에는 가급적 대형 전단시험장치를 사용하는 것이 보다 정확한 결과를 얻기 위해 바람직하다. 대형 전단시험장치로는 일반적으로 대형 직접전단시험장치와 대형 삼축압축시험장치가 있으나 일반 토질시험장치와 비교해 제작과 보급, 운영 등의 어려움 때문에 현재까지 국내에서 두 시험장치를 사용하여 시험을 수행한 실적은 많지 않은 편이다. 본 연구에서는 댐 축조재로 사용되는 입경이 큰 조립재료를 대상으로 시료의 평균 입자크기와 공시체 크기, 연직응력(구속압) 조건 등에 차이가 있는 총 6개 case에 대해서 대형 직접전단시험과 대형 삼축압축시험을 수행하고 두 시험간 전단강도 특성의 차이를 비교하였다. Mohr-Coulomb 강도규준에 의한 전단강도를 기준으로, 대형 직접전단시험을 통해 산정된 전단강도가 대형 삼축압축시험을 통해 산정된 전단강도보다 전체적으로 크게 나타났으며 또한, 1,000kPa 수직응력에 대해 두 시험간 산정된 전단강도를 비교한 결과 대형 직접전단시험에 의한 전단강도가 대형 삼축압축시험에 의한 전단강도보다 약 10~70% 크게 나타나 입경이 작은 일반 토사와 비교해 그 차이가 크고, 대형 직접전단시험결과의 분산도가 상대적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다.

This study investigated the shear and CBR characteristics of dredge soil-bottom ash-waste tire powder-mixed lightweight soil, which was developed to recycle dredged soil, bottom ash, and waste tire powder. Test specimens were prepared with various contents of waste tire powder ranging from 0 to 100% at 50% intervals by the weight of the dry dredged soil. Several series of triaxial compression tests and CBR tests were conducted. The shear strength characteristics of the lightweight soil were compared using two different shear tests (triaxial compression test and direct shear test). The experimental results indicated that the internal friction angle of the lightweight soil obtained by the direct shear tests was greater than that by the triaxial shear tests. However, the cohesion value obtained by the triaxial shear tests was greater than that by the direct shear tests. The CBR value of the lightweight soil decreased from 35% to 15% as waste tire powder content increased.

완만한 거칠기를 갖는 석회암 자연절리면에 대하여 KSRM 표준시험법에 의거한 개별적 직접전단시험과 수직응력을 단계별로 조절하는 다단계 직접전단시험을 실시하였다. 각 시험을 통해 전단시험 전후의 절리면 거칠기 변화를 알아보았고, 두 가지 시험에서 얻은 전단특성 값의 차이를 분석하였다. 두 가지 시험에서 모두 절리면의 거칠기가 클수록 전단저항은 증가하였으며, 수직응력이 증가할수록 절리면의 전단에 필요한 최대전단응력 값은 증가하였다. 다단계 직접전단시험으로 구한 최대마찰각은 개별적 직접 전단시험으로 구한 것의 63% 수준에 불과하였다. 다단계시험은 절리면 요철부의 초기 맞물림이 단계적인 전단과정에 따라 시험 중 수시로 변화되어 원래의 거칠기가 변형되기 때문에 암석 절리면의 마찰각을 구할 때는 개별적 직접전단시험이 더 유효한 방법으로 판단된다. JRC값 4~8의 완만한 거칠기를 갖는 석회암 절리면의 물성값은 최대마찰각 $47^{\circ}$, 잔류마찰각 $38^{\circ}$, 점착력 37 kPa으로 평가되었다.

A box scale affects the shear behavior of soils in the direct shear test. The purpose of this study is to investigate the scale effect on the shear behavior of dilative granular materials by testing specimens of different heights placed in a type C shear box. Experimental tests were performed on specimens composed of glass beads with different heights and equal initial void ratios. Results showed that the peak friction and dilation angles linearly increased with the specimen height; however, the residual friction angle remained relatively constant. Similarly, the shear stiffness increased with the specimen height, rapidly reaching its peak state. Height does not have a significant effect on the total volume changes; nevertheless, a high aspect ratio can be assumed to result in global and homogeneous failure. The results and interpretations may be used as reference for recommending shear box scale in direct shear tests.

A new type of retrof=t anchor bolt that uses deformed reinforcing bars and a commercial adhesive was developed and then an experimental study was carried out to determine the behavior of the anchors in direct shear. The steel-to-concl몫ete interface was tested. Plain concrete slabs with about 20-MPa compressive strength were used for 23 direct shear tests performed Test variables were anchor diameters (D16, D22. and D29) and edge effect. Three different shear tests were completed: simple shear, edge shear where anchors were pulled against the concrete core, and edge shear where anchors were pushed against the concrete cover In the simple and the edge shear tests where the anchors were pulled against the core, the theoretical dowel strength determined by (equation omitted) was achieved but with relatively large displacements. The shear resistances increased with the increasing displacements. In the edge shear test where the anchors were pushrd against the cover, the peak shear strengths signif=cantly lower than the theoretical dowel strength were determined due to cracks developed in concrete when the edge distance was 80 mm. The peak strengths were about 50% of the dowel strength for Dl6 bar. and about 25% or less of the dowel strength for D22 and D29 bars. Test results revealed that the edge shear where the anchor was pushed against the cover controled.

Residual stress is defined as a minimum stress with a large displacement of specimens and the residual stress after peak shear stress appears with displacement volume but there is no provision to select the residual stress. In the previous study, residual stress was recorded when the change of shear load is small in the condition of the strain more than 15%. But, in this study, hyperbolic function((No Abstract.see full/text), b=experimental constant) of soil test is adapted to joint of rock and the propriety is investigated. In a landslide and landsliding of artificial slope, wedge failure of tunnel with a large displacement, tests are simulated from peak stress to residual stress for safety analysis. But now. direct shear stress and triaxial compressive tests are usually performed to find out characteristics of shear stress about joint. Although these tests get a small displacement, that data of peak stress and residual stress are used for safety analysis. In this study, we tried to determine failure criteria for joints of rock using ring shear test machine. The residual stress following shear behavior was determined by the result of ring shear test and direct shear test. In conclusion, after comparing the results of the two test, we found that cohesion(c) and internal friction angle(ø) of ring shear test are 30% and 22% respectively of those of the direct shear test.
