An accurate evaluation of structural damage is essential to performance-based seismic design for the structure across the earth fissure. By comparing the calculation results from three commonly used damage models and the experimental results, a weighted combination method using Chen model was selected in this paper as the seismic damage evaluation. A numerical model considering the soil-structure interaction (SSI) was proposed using ABAQUS software. The model was calibrated by comparing with the experimental results. The results from the analysis indicated that, for the structure across the earth fissure, the existence of earth fissure changed the damage distribution of the structural members. The damage of structural members in the hanging wall was greater than that in the foot wall. Besides, the earth fissure enlarged the damage degree of the structural members at the same location and changed the position of the weak story. Moreover, the damage degree of the structure across the earth fissure was greater than that of the structure without the earth fissure under the same excitation. It is expected that the results from this research would enhance the understanding of the performance-based seismic design for the structure across the earth fissure.

Reinforced earth wall system has been popularized since its introduction to Korean civil engineering society in early 1980's. Nowadays, the increased use of reinforced earth wall for the purpose of obtaining more land brings several additional demands such as environmental-friendly, better stable and constructible, and economical system. This paper introduces some recently developed reinforced earth wall systems with consideration of the current demands.

붕적층에 시공되는 터널의 시 종점부 갱문은 흙막이가시설이 필요하다. 대규모의 붕적층은 굴착지반의 안정성에 문제를 야기 시킬 수 있다. 붕적층에서 굴착은 사질토에서 굴착과는 다른 거동특성을 보이며, 사질토지반에 비해 불안정한 요소를 가지고 있어 이에 대한 대처방안이 필요하다. 그러나 붕적토에 시공되는 흙막이구조물의 거동특성에 대한 연구는 미진한 상태이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 붕적층에 터널갱구부가 위치한 굴착현장으로부터 계측자료를 수집하여 흙막이 구조물의 안정성을 판단할 수 있는 정량적인 기준을 마련하고자 한다. 그리고 계측자료를 활용하여 이론토압과 경험토압을 비교 분석한 후 흙막이벽체에 작용하는 측방토압분포를 제한하였다.

Classic braced walls use struts and wales to minimize ground movements induced by deep excavation. However, the installation of struts and wales is a time-consuming process and confines the work space. To secure a work space around the retaining structure, an anchoring system works in conjunction with a braced wall. However, anchoring cannot perform well when the shear strength of soil is low. In such a case, innovative retaining systems are required in excavation. This study proposes an innovative earth-retaining wall that uses in situ soil confined in dual sheet piles as a structural component. A numerical study was conducted to evaluate the stability of the proposed structure in cohesionless dry soil and establish a design chart. The displacement and factor of safety of the structural member were monitored and evaluated. According to the results, an increase in the clearance distance increases the depth of safe excavation. For a conservative design to secure the stability of the earth-retaining structure in cohesionless dry soil, the clearance distance should exceed 2 m, and the embedded depth should exceed 40% of the wall height. The results suggest that the proposed method can be used for 14 m of excavation without any internal support structure. The design chart can be used for the preliminary design of an earth-retaining structure using in situ soil with dual steel sheet piles in cohesionless dry soil.

개착식 터널공법으로 시공된 지하철 건설현장을 대상으로 각종 계측시스템을 적용하여 지하 박스구조물에 작용하는 토압을 측정하였다. 이를 토대로 기존 이론식으로 산정된 측방토압과 현장에서 계측된 실측토압을 비교 검토하고, 실제 지하구조물에 작용하는 토압분포를 조사하였다. 조사결과에 의하면 지하 박스구조물에 작용하는 연직토압은 주로 성토고에 큰 영향을 받고 있으며, 측방토압은 흙막이구조물(버팀보, 흙막이벽)의 존치여부에 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 현장에서 측정된 지하 박스구조물 상단에 작용하는 연직토압은 Bierbaumer의 이론토압에 가장 근사하게 나타나고 있으며, 측방토압은 정지토압보다 주동토압에 가깝게 작용하고 있다. 그리고, 토압계수는 토사층의 경우 평균 0.35정도로 나타났으며 연암층의 경우 평균 0.21정도로 토사층에서 크게 나타나고 있다. 따라서, 지하 박스구조물이 토사층에 설치되는 경우, 지하 박스구조물에 작용하는 측방토압은 정지토압보다는 주동토압과 정지토압의 평균치를, 암반층에 설치되는 경우에는 주동토압을 사용하는 것이 보다 합리적이라고 판단된다.

LRFD Resistance factors for static bearing capacity of driven steel pipe piles were calibrated in the freamework of reliability theory. Reliability analysis was performed by the First Order Reliability Method (FORM) using resistance bias factor statistics.The target reliability indices are selected as 2.0 and 2.33 for group pile case and 2.5 for single pile case, based on the reliability level of the current design practice and considering redundancy of pile group, acceptable risk level, construction quality control, and significance of individual structure.

This paper investigated the magnitude and distribution of earth pressure on the support system in jointed rock mass by considering different earth pressure coefficients, rock types and joint inclination angles. The study mainly focused on the effect of the earth pressure coefficients on the earth pressure. Based on a physical model test (Son & Park, 2014), extended studies were conducted considering rock-structure interactions based on the discrete element method, which can consider the joints characteristics of rock mass. The results showed that the earth pressure was highly influenced by the earth pressure coefficients as well as the rock type and joint inclination angles. The effects of the earth pressure coefficients increased when the rock suffered more weathering and has no joint slide. The test results were also compared with Peck's earth pressure for soil ground, and clearly showed that the earth pressure in jointed rock mass can be greatly different from that in soil ground. This study indicated the earth pressure coefficients considering the rock types and joint inclination angles are important parameters influencing the magnitude and distribution of earth pressure, which should be considered when designing the support systems in jointed rock mass.

To study the influences of tunneling on the earth pressure and ground settlement when the tunnel passes through the adjacent underground retaining structure, 30 two-dimensional model tests were carried out taking into account the ratios of tunnel excavation depth (H) to lateral width (w), excavation width (B), and excavation distance using a custom-made test device and an analogical soil. Tunnel crossing adjacent existing retaining structure (TCE) and tunnel crossing adjacent newly-built retaining structure (TCN) were simulated and the earth pressure variations and ground settlement distribution during excavation were analyzed. For TCE condition, the earth pressure increments, maximum ground settlement and the curvature of the ground settlement curve are negatively related to H/B, but positively related to H/s and H/w. For TCN condition, most trends are consistent with TCE except that the earth pressure increments and the curvature of ground settlement curve are negatively related to H/w. The maximum ground settlement is larger than that observed in tunnel crossing the existing underground structure. This study provides an assessment basis for the design and construction under confined space conditions.
