In this study, the evaluation for effective utilization of waste landfill was performed by field test to use waste landfill as construction site(Nangido in Seoul). This site had been formed by dredging the household waste, building debris and industrial waste for fifteen years(78'3~93'3). The site where dynamic compaction test was divided by 4 yards. Yard-1, 2 were not eliminated widening of cover soil and Yard-3, 4 were eliminated it. Dynamic Compaction Pilot Test was carried out by the 15ton heavy tamper with drop height of 20m in Yard-1, 3 and with drop height of 15m in Yard-2, 4. We evaluated the compaction efficiency, optimum compaction number and noise vibration through field test, monitoring. As a result, if the countermeasures against vibration and noise by the method utilize, the dynamic compaction method is suitable for using in waste landfill as a construction site among the ground improvement method.

In general steel sheet piles are used in the containment system, which are vertical barrier systems for waste disposal and landfill purposes, and roads in excavation for temporary structure. This paper presents case study of the use of an interlocking sheet pile for water and containment. Cut-off Z-type sheet pile joints are investigated to determine their permeability from the field test. Four different joint sealing materials are used in field test. The results showed joint permeability is significant time-dependent and joint-dependent. These are explored and conclusions on permeability characteristics of different sealants are noted. A case study gives a design example as well as suggestion on permeability and water tightness can be implemented in using the sheet pile barrier in civil and environment works. From the test results, the effective sealing programs of sheet pile interlocks are suggested.

In this study, a new formula of settlement at the head of IGM was suggested and the applicability of suggested formula was verified with field test results. This suggested formula was the function of the settlement at the shaft head and the elastic compression of shaft. The applicability of suggested formula was verified with the result of in-situ load test. Also, the bearing capacity of drilled shaft with the IGM's theory was compared with those of classical theories. The results showed that classical method showed smaller values of bearing capacity than those of field load test data. The results of analysis also showed that the suggested formula and IGM's theory were applicable for the estimation of bearing capacity with the increase of shaft settlement. Especially, settlement correction factor($k_m$), which reflects ground condition and load transfer characteristics, increases as the applying load and shaft deformation increase. This suggested formula was applicable for medium density or higher density of soil condition and $k_m=1$ means yielding load for firm soil condition.

Non-excavation method is needed to secure the stability of existing structures during construction. Therefore, prediction of ground settlement is essential. Causes of settlement when using steel pipe indentation method are leading pipe-steel pipe gap, excessive excavation and soil-steel pipe friction etc. Also they are similar to the causes of settlement when using Shield TBM during construction. In this study, ground settlement during steel pipe indentation is predicted by the Gap Parameter Method and Volume Loss Method which are kinds of Shield TBM prediction Method. and compared with those of prediction methods by conducting field test. As a result, Volume Loss Prediction Method is the most similar to the field tests. However, It is needed to additional studies, such as decision of the factors and adaptability for total settlement predictions of non-excavation method.

In recent years, finite strain consolidation theories including a mechanical nonlinearity and a reasonable coordinate system have been proposed and used in educations and practical consolidation problems. However, despite their reasonable ability to predict the consolidation behavior, their failure in the field can be attributed to the complexity of estimating and selecting proper parameters for simulating the consolidation phenomenon. In this study, therefore, the application of a piecewise-linear method was proposed to solve such problems including the assumption of the uniqueness in compressibility. Especially, the concept of reference curve was introduced to define the effect of strain rate dependency of clay. The applicability of the methodology is verified by several tests. It was found that the proposed method is applicable in restrictive ranges of study carried out in the laboratory. Finally it is expected that the verification in field consolidation problem has to be carried out through future study.

A primary factor affecting on the design of soft ground is to determine the soil properties (Compression index, Coefficient of consolidation) and the depth of soft ground. It could be the basic sources to estimate settlement behavior of soft ground. Even though the reliable soil examination equipment was used to examine soil to determine the depth of soft ground, it's very hard to find out the accurate properties of soft ground, because the condition of indoor experiment cannot reproduce the circumstances of ground perfectly. Therefore, this study was re-estimated to find out the most reliable soil properties by using back-analysis with field monitoring data of "Site preparation for Airplane Mooring of Incheon International Airport Phase II Development" for 317days.

In this study, the behavior characteristics and triggering rainfall of debris flow were investigated on the basis of DB constructed by performing field investigation and collecting the rainfall data at the sites where debris flow occurred around the west of Gangwon and adjacent areas during the last 10 years. For hill slope and channelized type of debris flow, its behavior characteristic was analyzed through runout channel of debris flow divided into zone of initiation, transportation and deposition and its magnitude was estimated by considering erosion at zones of initiation and transportation. Some considerations related to establishment of landslide forecasting criterion were raised by comparing the analyzed results of analysis of rainfall at the time of debris-flow occurrence with the previous researches about the triggering rainfall of debris flow. In addition, an ID curve of inducing debris flow adequate to the investigated site was proposed and compared with results of previous study.

The 19 mm-sized aggregate was produced by melting vinyl waste (waste polyethylene film) generated from vinyl greenhouses in rural areas. It was mixed with As'cone at various weight ratios, and then insulation effect test, tension test after repeated freezing and thawing, ice pull-out strength test and field density test were conducted for the mixtures. These results demonstrated that as the mixing ratio of polyethylene aggregate increased, the insulation effect increased, due to the many pore spaces that existed in the polyethylene aggregate. After repeatedly freezing and thawing As'cone, the tensile strength significantly increased at 2.5% of the polyethylene aggregate content rather than 0% of polyethylene aggregate content but it also slightly decreased at 5% and 10% of polyethylene aggregate content in comparison to 2.5% of its polyethylene aggregate content. As'cone added with polyethylene aggregate by 2.5% resulted in lower ice pull-out strength than that of normal As'cone. As a result of the porosity test for the samples taken at the site, porosity of the As'cone, which added polyethylene aggregate, was smaller than that of the general As'cone.
