Earthquake preparedness has become more important with recent increase in the number of earthquakes in Korea, but many existing structures are not prepared for earthquakes. There are various types of liquefaction prevention method that can be applied, such as compaction, replacement, dewatering, and inhibition of shear strain. However, most of the liquefaction prevention methods are applied before construction, and it is important to find optimal methods that can be applied to existing structures and that have few effects on the environment, such as noise, vibration, and changes in underground water level. The purpose of this study is to estimate the correlation between the displacement of a structure and variations of pore water pressure on the ground in accordance with the depth of the sheet file when liquidation occurs. To achieve this, a shaking table test was performed for Joo-Mun-Jin standard sand and an earth pressure, accelerometer, pore water pressure transducer, and LVDT were installed in both the non-liquefiable layer and the liquefiable layer to measure the subsidence and excess pore water pressure in accordance with the time of each embedded depth. Then the results were analyzed. A comparison of the pore water pressure in accordance with Hsp/Hsl was shown to prevent lateral water flow at 1, 0.85 and confirmed that the pore water pressure increased. In addition, the relationship between Hsp/Hsl and subsidence was expressed as a trend line to calculate the expected settlement rate formula for the embedded depth ratio.

본 연구는 RAP공법의 구조물 기초로서의 안정성 및 사용성 확보를 위한 기초연구로써, RAP공법이 적용된 지반의 지지력 및 파괴거동을 실내모형토조시험을 통하여 검토한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 RAP 공법을 구조물 기초로서의 파괴거동을 파악하기 위한 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 사질토 지반에서 상대밀도별(60%, 70%, 90%), 직경 별(45mm, 60mm, 70mm)로 RAP를 설치한 후 깊이별(5cm, 10cm, 15cm, 20cm, 25cm, 30cm)로 토압계를 각각 RAP에 인접한 곳과 RAP 중심에서 1.0D 떨어진 곳에 설치하여 하중재하 실험을 수행하여 RAP의 지지력 및 파괴거동을 검토하였다. 실험 결과 RAP의 파괴거동은 깊이 5∼10cm(1.0D∼2.0D)에서 최대 횡토압을 받아 일반적인 RAP의 파괴 형태인 Bulging 파괴가 발생하는 것으로 판단되었다. 그리고 RAP에 하중을 가하였을 경우 상대밀도가 낮을 경우에는 RAP의 직경변화가 컸으며 상대밀도가 높을 경우에는 RAP의 직경변화가 작음을 알 수 있었다. 깊이별 횡방향 응력 분포도는 상부에서 횡토압의 영향이 크게 나타났으며 하부로 내려갈수록 작아지는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The application of the reinforced retaining wall has increased in the last 10 years in Korea. The height of reinforced wall is generally limited to less than 15m. It has been reported that the reinforced wall higher than 10m should have higher strength reinforcement or should reduce the lateral earth pressure of the reinforced wall to secure the stability of the wall. In this study, the reinforced retaining wall was constructed 14m high, backfilled by a mixture of soil and cement and instrumented on the reinforcement elements. The instrumented reinforced wall was monitored during and after construction. Field monitoring result shows that a backfill by a mixture of soil and cement reduced the tensile stress developed on the reinforcing elements and the reinforced wall backfilled by a mixture of soil and cement performed successful.

Lateral loading model tests were performed on the rigid box-shaped cellular bulkhead by displacement-controlled method. The materials of ground and fill used in this study are two aluminium rods with different sections. The behalf·iotas of ground and fill were recorded by photo/video techniques and failure mechanism created in ground and fill has been simulated two-야mensionally. Also the theoretical consideration about the test results was done on the basis of Hansen's earth pressure theory. As a result, the shape of sliding face the location of sliding face and the loading height was also investigated.

The paper represents an optimization algorithm for reinforced concrete retaining wall design. The proposed method, called Rao-3 optimization algorithm, is a recently developed algorithm. The total weight of the steel and concrete, which are used for constructing the retaining wall, were chosen as the objective function. Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-05) and Rankine's theory for lateral earth pressure were considered for structural and geotechnical design, respectively. Number of the design variables are 12. Eight of those express the geometrical dimensions of the wall and four of those express the steel reinforcement of the wall. The safety against overturning, sliding and bearing capacity failure were regarded as the geotechnical constraints. The safety against bending and shear failure, minimum and maximum areas of reinforcement, development lengths of steel reinforcement were regarded as structural constraints. The performance of proposed algorithm was evaluated with two design examples.

The Observational Method proposed by Terzaghi can be applied for the safe and economic construction projects where the exact prediction of the behavior of the structures is difficult as in the underground excavation. The method consists of measuring lateral displacement, ground settlement and axial force of supports in the earlier stage of the construction and back analysis technique to find the best fit design parameters such as earth pressure coefficient, subgrade reaction etc, which will minimize the gap between calculated displacement and measured displacement. With the results, more reliable prediction of the later stage can be obtained. In this study, back analysis programs using the Direct Method, based on the Hill Climbing Method were made and evaluated, and to overcome the limits of the method, Genetic Algorithm(GA) was applied and tested for the actual construction cases.

본 논문에서는 계절적 환경변화로 인한 동결-융해 반복과정에 노출되는 옹벽의 시간 의존적 거동에 대한 수치 해석 연구 내용을 다루었다. 이를 위해 먼저 동결-융해 반복과정에 노출되는 옹벽에 대한 열-수리-응력 연계해석 기반의 모델링 기법을 정립하였으며 이러한 모델링 기법을 토대로 다양한 온도변화 조건에 대한 매개변수 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 다양한 온도변화 특성 중 옹벽의 거동에 미치는 주된 영향인자는 계절적 평균동결온도와 반복회수인 것으로 나타났다. 반면 동결온도의 지속시간에 대한 영향을 검토한 결과 벽체변위 및 수평토압에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 검토되었다. 한편, 벽체에 작용하는 수평토압은 동결-융해 작용에 의한 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것으로 검토되어 결국 동결-융해로 인한 벽체 변위 증가 현상은 토압 증가에 그 원인을 찾기 보다는 동결-융해 현상으로 인한 재료적 열화 현상에 그 원인을 찾아야 할 것으로 검토되었다.

다주기 Ko-재하/제하 시에 수평응력의 변화특성을 관찰하기 위하여 7종류의 시험모형을 선 정하였고, Ko조건을 크게 만족할 수 있도록 특별히 고안한압밀링 형태의 Ko-시험기를 제작하여 실내 건조된 모래에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 시험모형은 동일한 재하/제하 응력의 반복, 최대선행응력을 초과하는 반복 재하/제하, 그리고 최대선행 연직응력 내의 반복 재하/제하 Ko시험으로 구분된다. 실험결과에서 다주기 이력모형도 역시 기존의 단주기 이력모형을 확대하여 사용할 수 있음을 보였다. 여기서, 제하시의 지수 (a 및 a*)와 재재하 시의 계수(mr 및 mr*)는 응력이력의 형태, 반복회수 및 상대밀도에 따라 주로 지배되었다.

To investigate the soil-pile interactive performance under lateral loads, a set of laboratory model tests was conducted on remoulded test bed of soft clay and medium dense sand. Then, a simplified boundary element analysis had been carried out assuming floating pile. In case of soft clay, it has been observed that lateral loads on piles can initiate the formation of a gap, soil heave and the tension crack in the vicinity of the soil surface and the interface, whereas in medium dense sand, a semi-elliptical depression zone can develop. Comparison of test and boundary element results indicates the accuracy of the solution developed. However, in the boundary element analysis, the possible shear stresses likely to be developed at the interface are ignored in order to simplify the existing complex equations. Moreover, it is unable to capture the influence of base restraint in case of a socketed pile. To bridge up this gap and to study the influence of the initial stress state and interface parameters, a field based case-study of laterally-loaded pile in layered soil with socketed tip is explored and modelled using the finite element method. The results of the model have been verified against known field measurements from a case-study. Parametric studies have been conducted to investigate the influence of the coefficient of lateral earth pressure and the interface strength reduction factor on the results of the model.

최근 콘크리트 블록을 전면판으로 주로 사용하고 있는 기존의 블록식 보강토 옹벽과는 달리 경량의 강재를 지주로 이용하여 전면판의 자중을 감소시켜 안정성을 높이고 시공이 쉬운 보강토 공법이 개발되었다. 이 연구에서는 새로 개발된 보강토 옹벽의 안정성을 확인하기 위해 실제 크기의 현장시험을 수행하여 전면판에 발생하는 수평변위, 수평토압, 그리고 옹벽의 침하량 등을 계측기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 또한, 3차원 수치해석을 수행하여 현장시험결과와 수치해석결과를 비교 분석하였다. 현장계측결과 전면판 최대수평변위는 46mm(0.009H), 최대침하량은 21.5mm로 나타나 FHWA 기준을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 현장계측결과를 수치해석결과와 비교 분석한 결과 새로운 보강토 공법은 충분한 안정성을 확보하는 것으로 나타났다.
