본 연구는 발전소의 적치장에서 채취한 석탄회의 정적 및 동적 강도를 제시하였다. 석탄회는 주로 저회로 이루어져 있으며 정적 및 동적 강도를 평가하기 위하여 NGI형 단순전단시험, 반복단순전단시험 및 직접전단시험을 수행하였으며, 이러한 시험으로부터의 강도를 모래의 강도와 비교하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 석탄회 속에 있는 저회는 입도분포에 의하면 모래로 분류되었으며 모래보다 높은 강도 특성을 보였다. 석탄회를 토목공사에 활용되기 위해서 사질토와 석탄회를 50:50의 비율로 배치플랜트에서 섞어 사용하는 것은 사질토층과 석탄회층을 교대로 층별 시공하는 것보다 비효율적이다. 혼합시공과 층별시공을 모사하기 위하여 모래와 석탄회가 50:50으로 조성된 시료를 준비하였다. 시험결과 혼합에 의한 시료가 층별시료보다 약간 큰 정적 및 동적 강도를 나타내었다. 높은 강도는 주로 저회의 모난 입자로부터 기인된 것으로 보인다. 혼합시료에서 액상화시의 반복응력비는 반복횟수가 증가함에 따라 층별시료보다 급격히 감소하였다.

Permeable reactive barriers used for groundwater treatment require proper estimation of the reactive material behavior regarding the emplacement method. This study evaluates the dry emplacement of zeolite (clinoptilolite) to be used as a reactive material in the barrier by carrying out several geotechnical laboratory tests. Dry zeolite samples, exhibited higher wetting-induced compression strains at the higher vertical stresses, up to 12% at 400 kN/m². The swelling potential was observed to be limited with a 3.5 swell index and less than 1% free swelling strain. Direct shear tests revealed that inundation reduces the shear strength of a dry zeolite column by a maximum of 10%. Falling head permeability tests indicate decreasing permeability values with increasing the vertical effective stress. Regarding self-loading and inundation, the porosity along the zeolite column was calculated using a proposed 1D numerical model to predict the permeability with depth considering the laboratory tests. The calculated discharge efficiency was significantly decreased with depth and less than 2% relative to the top for barrier depths deeper than 20 m. Finally, the importance of directional dependence in the permeability of the zeolite medium for calibrating 2D finite element flow analysis was highlighted by bench-scale tests performed under 2D flow conditions.

In this study, we tried to determine failure criteria for joints of soft rock using ring shear test machine. The residual stress fellowing shear behavior was determined by the result of ring shear test and direct shear test. Ring shear test with the specimens which cover a large deformation range was adapted to measure a residual stress, and was possible to present the peak stress to present the peak stress to the residual stress at the same time. Residual stress is defined a minimal stress of specimens with a large displacement and the result of the peak residual stress is shown by a size of displacement volume. Therefore, the residual stress in soil was decided by shear stress of maximum shear stress - shear displacement(angle) based on the test result of a hyperbolic function ((equation omitted), a, b ＝ experimental constant). In this study, it was proved that the residual stress of rock joint can be determined by using of this method.

When an earth pressure balance (EPB) shield machine bores a tunnel in gravelly sand stratum, the excavated natural soil is normally transformed using foam and water to reduce cutter wear and the risk of direct muck squeezing out of the screw conveyor (i.e., muck spewing). Understanding the undrained shear behavior of conditioned soils under pressure is a potential perspective for optimizing the earth pressure balance shield tunnelling strategies. Owing to the unconventional properties of conditioned soil, a pressurized vane shear apparatus was utilized to investigate the undrained shear behavior of foam-conditioned gravelly sands under normal pressure. The results showed that the shear stress-displacement curves exhibited strain-softening behavior only when the initial void ratio (e₀) of the foam-conditioned sand was less than the maximum void ratio (e_max) of the unconditioned sand. The peak and residual strength increased with an increase in normal pressure and a decrease in foam injection ratio. A unique relation between the void ratio and the shear strength in the residual stage was observed in the e-ln(τ) space. When e₀ was greater than e_max, the fluid-like specimens had quite low strengths. Besides, the stick-slip behavior, characterized by the variation coefficient of measured shear stress in the residual stage, was more evident under lower pressure but it appeared to be independent of the foam injection. A comparison between the results of pressurized vane shear tests and those of slump tests indicated that the slump test has its limitations to characterize the chamber muck fluidity and build the optimal conditioning parameters.

Interfacial properties between rock mass and shotcrete play a significant role in the transmission of loads from the ground to shotcrete. These properties have a major effect on the behaviours of rock mass and shotcrete. They, however, have merely been assumed in most of numerical analyses, and little care has been taken in identifying them. This paper aimed to identify interfacial properties including cohesion, tension, friction angle, shear stiffness, and normal stiffness, through direct shear tests as well as interface normal compression tests for shotcrete/rock cores obtained from a tunnel sidewall. Mechanical properties such as compression strength and elastic modulus were also measured to compare them with the time-dependent variation of interfacial properties. Based on experiments, interfacial properties between rock and shotcrete showed a significant time-dependent variation similar to those of its mechanical properties. In addition, the time-dependent behaviours of interfacial properties can be well regressed through exponential and logarithmic functions of time.

본 연구에서는 부산시 금정구 금정산 일대에서 채취한 단층비지대의 공학적 특성을 여러 형태의 절리모형실험을 통하여 파악하였다. 이 지역은 양산단층과 동래단층과 같은 주요 대규모 단층과 부수적인 소규모 단층이 다수 분포하고 있어, 이 지역의 시추공 중 이러한 단층을 관통한 시추공에서 단층비지 및 흑운모 화강암 절리 시료를 추출하여 실내 실험에 사용하였다. 우선 단층비지대의 광물학적 특성을 파악하기 위한 XRD 및 SEM 분석에서는 단층비지대가 수분 함유에 따른 급격한 전단강도 감소를 예측할 수 있는 판상구조의 점토광물인 kaolinite, montmorillonite, illite, sericite으로 이루어져 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 단층비지에 대한 전단강도 특성은 비지 자체의 전단강도 측정과 단층비지를 충전한 여러 형태의 자연 및 인공절리면에 대한 절리면의 전단강도 측정으로 구하였다. 실험 결과, 단층비지가 충전된 절리면은 충전물질이 없는 절리면보다 급격한 전단강도의 감소가 발생하였으며, 단층비지의 내부 마찰각보다 절리면 사이에 충전된 단층비지의 마찰각이 더욱 낮게 측정되었다. 이러한 실험 결과는 암반과 접하고 있는 단층비지의 전단 특성은 단층비지 자체가 가진 전단강도보다 더욱 작은 값을 가지기 때문에 암반 구조물의 안정성을 저해하는 요소로 작용할 수 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다.

Multi-layered geotextile tubes may have problems on its stability when used as cofferdam. This study presents the shear strength characteristics at the interface between geotextiles and a cementitious binder material to improve the stability of the multi-layered geotextile tubes. In this study, two different types of geotextiles are used. After mixing with a rapid setting cement, fly ash, sand, accelerator, and water, the cementitious binder material is prepared at the interface between two geotextile samples and cured under water for a desired period. The specimen is placed on upper and lower direct shear boxes by using clamping systems. A series of direct shear tests for two different geotextiles are performed along the curing time under three vertical stresses. Experimental results show that the shear strength at the interface between the cementitious binder material and geotextiles is greater than that at the interface between two geotextiles. For two types of geotextiles, apparent cohesion occurs at the interface between the cementitious binder material and geotextiles. In addition, the friction angles for any curing time are improved, compared to the interface between two geotextiles. The cementitious binder material suggested for the interface between two geotextiles may be useful for the reinforcement of multi-layered geotextile tubes.

A controlled low strength material (CLSM) is a highly flowable cementitious material used for trench backfilling. However, when applying vertical loads to backfilled trenches, shear failure or differential settlement may occur at the interface between the CLSM and natural soil. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the characteristics of the interface friction between the CLSM and soils based on curing time, gradation, and normal stress. The CLSM is composed of fly ash, calcium sulfoaluminate cement, sand, silt, water, and an accelerator. To investigate the engineering properties of the CLSM, flow and unconfined compressive strength tests are carried out. Poorly graded and well-graded sands are selected as the in-situ soil adjacent to the CLSM. The direct shear tests of the CLSM and soils are carried out under three normal stresses for four different curing times. The test results show that the shear strengths obtained within 1 day are higher than those obtained after 1 day. As the curing time increases, the maximum dilation of the poorly graded sand-CLSM specimens under lower normal stresses also generally increases. The maximum contraction increases with increasing normal stress, but it decreases with increasing curing time. The shear strengths of the well-graded sand-CLSM interface are greater than those of the poorly graded sand-CLSM interface. Moreover, the friction angle for the CLSM-soil interface decreases with increasing curing time, and the friction angles of the well-graded sand-CLSM interface are greater than those of the poorly graded sand-CLSM interface. The results suggest that the CLSM may be effectively used for trench backfilling owing to a better understanding of the interface shear strength and behavior between the CLSM and soils.
