In the construction industry, the interest for recycling aggregates is rising as more people demand for alternatives due to lack of supply of natural aggregates and environmental problems. However, in order for recycled aggregates to be used in infrastructures, stability and other factors need to be verified. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the sensitivity of soil properties to secure slope safety according to various heights of embankment when bottom ash and dredged soil mixture is applied in the embankment. In most cases, all heights were safe for the slide for the embankment whether the water level is full or sudden draw down. The result of the sensitivity analysis revealed that the unit weight of embankments is highest among all factors to be considered. However, the sensitivity of the unit weight became smaller and the sensitivity of the friction angle of embankments increased with the height of embankments. The sensitivity of factors of core materials is very small because the core has weaker physical properties than those of the embankment. The effect of the height for each factor is different for each slope and water levels. The sensitivity of the unit weight of embankments is most affected when the height is 60m in the upstream slope. To conclude, bottom ash and dredged soil mixture can be applied in the embankment and different factors must be considered in different scale because the sensitivity depends highly on the height of embankments.

This study analyzed pore water pressure, earth pressure and settlement through field monitoring on the project site in which raising embankments are being built through backside extension, and compared the behaviors of seepage analysis, slope stability analysis and stress-strain during flood water levels and rapid drawdown under steady state and transient condition. The variation of pore water pressure showed an increase during the later period in both upstream and downstream slope, with downstream slope more largely increased than upstream slope overall. The variation of earth pressure increased according to the increase of embankment heights, while the change largely showed in the upstream slope, it was slowly increased in the downstream slope. The settlements largely increased until 23 m as embankment heights increased, and showed very little settlement overall. Under a steady state and transient conditions, the seepage quantity per day and leakage quantity per 100 m of embankment against total storage were shown to be stable for piping. The hydraulic gradient at the core before and after raising embankments was greater than the limit hydraulic gradient, showing instability for piping. The safety factor of upstream and downstream slopes were shown to be very large at a steady state, while the upstream slopes greatly decreased at a transit conditions, downstream slopes did not show any significant changes. The horizontal settlements, the maximum shear strain and stress are especially distributed at the connecting portion of the existing reservoir and the new extension of backside. Accordingly, the backside extension method should be designed and reinforced differently from the cases of other types reservoirs.

본 연구에서는 현재 실존하는 제방을 대상으로 제방겸용도로 건설에 따른 안정성의 변화를 살펴보기 위해 건설단계별로 도로건설을 위한 성토 후, 겸용도로 건설 후 도로를 주행하는 차량에 의한 교통하중이 재하될 경우로 구분하여 안정성 변화를 분석하였다. 연구결과 겸용도로 건설을 위한 성토 후와 교통하중(DB-24)을 적용하였을 경우 모두 일반적인 안전율 기준인 1.3을 상회하고 있어 겸용도로 건설에 따른 제방의 안전은 확보되는 것으로 분석되어 제방겸용도로의 건설은 부지 확보 비용 절감을 위해 건설이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 겸용도로의 건설로 인해 제방의 안전율 감소 현상이 발생하기 때문에 안정성에 대한 사전 검토가 충분히 이루어져야 할 것이다. 특히 안전율 감소가 가장 큰 경우는 비정상류 상태의 수위상승의 경우로 분석되어 하천제방과 같이 수위변화가 빈번한 경우에는 비정상류 해석으로 설계하는 것이 바람직하며 제내지의 사면경사는 기존제방과 동일한 1:2의 경사를 유지하도록 설계하는 것이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 교통하중에 의한 안전율 감소현상도 발생하는 것으로 분석되어 겸용도로 건설 후 주행차량의 하중제한 등 유지 관리에도 지속적인 관심을 기울여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 새만금지역의 방수제 제방단면을 대상으로 강우지속시간에 따른 침투깊이와 지하수위 변화를 예측하고 이를 토대로 사면안정해석을 수행하였다. 준설토로 구성된 제방의 불포화 지반정수를 산정하기 위하여 실험으로 구한 흡입응력과 직접전단시험으로 구한 점착력 및 내부마찰각을 이용하였다. 강우에 따른 침투깊이와 지하수위 변화를 예측한 결과 강우초기와 지속시간 1시간 경과 후 제방 상부에 강우의 침투로 인하여 습윤전선이 하강하며, 이후 강우 지속시간이 길어짐에 따라 지하수위는 지속적으로 상승하였다. 강우 발생이후 에는 지하수위가 일정한 깊이로 분포되고 있으며, 시간이 경과할수록 지하수위는 점차 하강하였다. 강우에 따른 침투깊이와 지하수위 변화를 고려하여 사면안정해석을 수행한 결과 강우로 인한 침투가 발생됨에 따라 사면안전율은 급격히 감소하며, 강우지속시간이 24시간일 때 사면안전율이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 강우 발생이후에는 지반내 모관흡수력이 회복됨에 따라 사면안전율이 증가함을 알 수 있다.

Vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides) is being effectively used in many countries to protect embankment and slopes for their characteristics of having long and strong roots. In this paper, in-situ shear tests of the ground with the vetiver roots have been conducted to investigate the stabilization properties corresponding to the embankment slopes. Numerical analyses have also been performed with the finite element method using elastoplastic subloading $t_{ij}$ model, which can simulate typical soil behavior. It is revealed from field tests that the shear strength of vetiver rooted soil matrix is higher than that of the unreinforced soil. The reinforced soil with vetiver root also shows ductile behavior. The numerical analyses capture well the results of the in-situ shear tests. Effectiveness of vetiver root in geotechnical structures-strip foundation and embankment slope has been evaluated by finite element analyses. It is found that the reinforcement with vetiver root enhances the bearing capacities of the grounds and stabilizes the embankment slopes.

Ths study was peformed to evaluate the degree of degradation and safety of a small agricultural reservoir, Kosam Reservoir, in Kyungki Province. Evaluation was done by the program developed by the authors. Results of the study are as follows: 1) Although many burrows were found in downstream side of embankment and cracks were found in wall joining spillway, it appeared that degree of degradation of embankment was in good conditions. 2) Compressive strengths of concrete of crest, side channel, chute floor of spillway were in poor condition. But it appeared that overall degree of degradation of structures was in medium condition based on the criteria of the evaluation system 3) From the analysis of slope stability, safety factor of downstream slope was over 3.3 for the worst condition, such as flood and high water level and that of upstream slope was also over 3.6 for rapid drawdown. In case of earthquake, safety factors were over 2.5 for all conditions. Therefore embankment slopes of Kosam Reservoir were very stable for normal and earthquake condition. 4) As upon assumed failure of embankment of Kosam Reservoir, degree of damage was estimated to be very serious because of many loss of life and properties in the downstream area. 5) Overall grade of safety of Kosam Reservoir was in good condition. Therefore safety was considered to be "No problems" at the present time but further degradation may be proceeded partly and continuously as time goes by.e goes by.

This study was performed to investigate the minimum safety factor of embankment in consideration of seismic coefficient by the psuedo-static analysis The variables were cohesion, the internal friction angle, angle of slope, height of seepage, height of embankment, depth of replacement The results obtained were compared with those by Fellenius method, simplified Bishop method and Janbu method. The results were summarized as follows: 1.The increasing rate of the minimum safety factor with the increasing of cohesion appeared larger in Fellenius method and Bishop method than in Janbu method. And that with the increasing of the internal friction angle appeared the lowest value in Janbu method. The minimum safety factor was influenced larger on the internal friction angle than on cohesion. 2.The variation of the minimum safety factor with the height of seepage at 0m and 5 m was nearly similar to Fellenius method, Bishop method and Janbu method. On the other hand, it was decreased suddenly at 25 m. 3.The minimum safety factor with the height of embankment was decreased remarkably under 10 m with the increasing of seismic coefficient. But, it was decreased slowly more than 10 m. As the height of embankment was low, the influence of cohesion appeared larger. 4.In heigher case of the depth of replacement, the phenomenon of reduction of the minimum safety factor appeared remarkably with seismic coefficient increased. And in lower case of the depth of replacement, the minimum safety factor was similar in Fellenius method and Bishop mehtod. But it appeared larger in Bishop method and Janbu method than in Fellenius method with the depth of replacement increased. 5.As the cohesion and the internal friction angle were large, the phenomenon of reduction of the minimum safety factor with the increasing of seismic coefficient appeared remarkably. Also, the influence of seismic coefficient in minimum safety factor appeared larger with the soil parameter increased. 6.When the seismic coefficient was considerated, investigation of the structural body on the slope stability appeared profitably in Fellenius method and Janbu method than in Bishop method.
