The methods of design available for geocell-supported embankments are very few. Two of the earlier methods are considered in this paper and a third method is proposed and compared with them. In the first method called slip line method, plastic bearing failure of the soil was assumed and the additional resistance due to geocell layer is calculated using a non-symmetric slip line field in the soft foundation soil. In the second method based on slope stability analysis, general-purpose slope stability program was used to design the geocell mattress of required strength for embankment. In the third method proposed in this paper, geocell reinforcement is designed based on the plane strain finite element analysis of embankments. The geocell layer is modelled as an equivalent composite layer with modified strength and stiffness values. The strength and dimensions of geocell layer is estimated for the required bearing capacity or permissible deformations. These three design methods are compared through a design example. It is observed that the design method based on finite element simulations is most comprehensive because it addresses the issue of permissible deformations and also gives complete stress, deformation and strain behaviour of the embankment under given loading conditions.

The settlement of embankment on soft clay includes shear settlement due to shear deformation. Even though the consolidation settlement is not related to lateral displacement, but shear settlement makes the embankment unstable because it deforms ground and decreases the ground strength. In order to determine the shear deformation behaviour during embankment construction, 3 cases (1B, 2B, and 3B) of rapid undrained loading tests on soft clays were performed. Shear settlement is consist of elastic settlement, plastic settlement and viscous settlement. Elastic settlement isn't considered because the range is small, therefore the first is the range of plastic displacement, and the second is that of viscous displacement in the displacement-time curve for each loading stage. After determining that the change in the inclination of the viscous displacement range is larger than in the plastic displacement range after the ground failure occurs for the loading stage, the stability management methods were suggested considering that it is hard to divide the plastic displacement range and the viscous displacement range. The stability management method was based on the ratio of the plastic displacement range's inclination and the viscous displacement range's inclination. A stability management method based on the ratio of the total inclination for each loading stage compared to the whole inclination in the initial loading stage was also recommended.

In this paper, nonlinear elasto-plastic analysis was performed to investigate the stability of the rapid embankment under undrained condition. The commercial code ABAQUS/Standard was used in the study. Resonant Column test (RC test) results and Ramberg-Osgood model were utilized to simulate the nonlinear behavior of soft clay. Ramgerg-Osgood model was tested whether it simulates the nonlinear behavior of the soil properly in first. Then the analysis result was compared with the previous research results. It was found that the Ramberg-Osgood model matched well with the soil behavior of soft clay in the rapid embankment under undrained condition.

Road or Railway construction over soft ground is needed to be considered on secondary consolidation which will be caused differential settlement, lack of transport serviceability, higher maintenance cost. Especially for the railway construction in the second phase of Gyung-Bu or Ho-Nam high speed railway, concrete slab track has been adapted as a safe and cost effective geotechnical solution. In this case controlling the total settlement under the tolerance is essential. And pile supported geogrid reinforced construction method is suggested as a solution for the problem of the traditional method on soft soil treatments. Pile supported geogrid reinforced construction method consists of piles that are designed to transfer the load of the embankment through the compressible soil layer to a firm foundation. The load from the embankment must be effectively transferred to the piles to prevent punching of the piles through the embankment fill creating differential settlement at the surface of the embankment. The arrangement of the piles can create soil arching to carry the load of embankment to the piles. In order to minimize the number of piles geogrid reinforced pile supported construction method is being used on a regular basis. This method consists of one or more layers of geogrid reinforcement placed between the top of the piles and the bottom of the embankment. This paper presents several methods of pile supported geogrid reinforced construction and calculation results from the several methods and comparison of them.

Most construction works on the soft ground adopt instrumentation to manage settlement and stability of the embankment. The rapid progress of the information technologies and the digital data acquisition on the soft ground instrumentation has led to the fast-growing amount of data. Although valuable information about the behaviour of the soft ground may be hiding behind the data, most of the data are used restrictedly only for the management of settlement and stability. One of the critical issues on soft ground instrumentation is the long-term settlement prediction. Some observational settlement analysis methods are used for this purpose. But the reliability of the analysis results is remained in vague. The knowledge could be discovered from a large volume of experiences on the observational settlement analysis. In this article, we present a database to store settlement records and data mining procedure. A large volume of knowledge about observational settlement prediction were collected from the database by applying the filtering algorithm and knowledge discovery algorithm. Statistical analysis revealed that the reliability of observational settlement analysis depends on stay duration and estimated degree of consolidation.

연약지반은 지반강도가 낮으므로 공학적 문제점 개선방법에 대해 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 대상현장은 연약지반의 압밀침하에 대해 안정성을 확보하기 위해 경량성토제인 EPS를 시공하였다. 그러나 포장층의 침하와 경계석의 파손 등 안정성에 문제점이 발생하였으며, 조사결과 현재높이가 설계높이보다 1m 이상 압축된 것으로 나타났다. 분석결과 상재하중에 영향을 받는 EPS가 설계 및 시공당시 상부 지반층 및 교통 하중이 과다하게 적용된 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 연약지반에 EPS가 시공된 현장의 고성토로 인한 문제점을 분석하고, 합리적인 대책공법을 제시한 사례를 소개함으로서 EPS 설계 및 시공 시 유의점을 제시하고자 한다.

국내에서 지반의 측방유동으로 인한 피해가 가장 빈번하고 극명하게 나타나는 사례는 주로 연약지반에 교대 및 옹벽을 시공하고 배면에 성토를 진행하는 경우로서 측방유동으로 인한 교대의 안정성에 대한 연구는 연약지반에서의 연구가 대부분이다. 그러나 측방유동은 연약지반뿐만 아니라 성토사면에서도 발생하며, 이로 인해 인접구조물에 영향을 미치게 된다. 특히 국내에서 시공되는 교량 중에는 연약지반 위에 시공되는 경우보다 산지에 시공되는 경우가 많다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현장단면에 대한 유한요소해석을 통해 성토사면의 측방유동으로 인한 지반거동을 분석하였고, 그에 따른 적절한 보강 공법의 결과 분석을 통해 성토사면에 설치된 교대설계에 관한 기초자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 그 결과, 압성토와 사면에 억지말뚝으로 보강하였을 경우에는 측방유동은 4~30% 감소하는 것으로 나타났고, 교대 교좌부의 변위는 2~13% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, EPS로 보강하였을 경우에 측방유동은 약 97% 감소하였고, 교대 교좌부의 최대수평변위는 약 95% 정도 감소하였다. 향후, 국내 여러 현장을 대상으로 추가적인 실험을 지속적으로 수행하여 보다 국내 여건에 부합하는 설계 기법의 도출이 요구되며, 수치해석 및 실측치를 비교 분석함으로써 지금보다 신뢰성 있는 연구가 뒤따라야 할 것이다.

연약지반 구간의 도로 확장공사는 연약지반의 특성으로 인해 우선 시행되는 확장 부 성토 시 발생되는 침하로 기존고속도로에 연동침하가 발생된다. 이 경우 지반침하 및 변형에 의한 포장 평탄성 불량, 차량 주행 안전성 저하, 구조물 안정성 감소 등 시공 및 기존도로 유지관리에서 많은 어려움을 유발한다. 특히 대심도 연약지반에서는 이와 같은 문제가 발생될 수 있는 여지가 대단히 높다. 따라서 이러한 문제점이 고려된 설계가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 연약지반 분포심도 최대 약 50m가 존재하는 남해고속도로 제2지선 확장공사를 대상으로 기존 설계안의 현황을 파악한 후 그 개선안을 제시하였다.
