Liquefaction phenomenon refers to a phenomenon in which excess pore water pressure occurs when a dynamic load such as an earthquake is rapidly applied to a loose sandy soil ground where the ground is saturated, and the ground loses effective stress and becomes liquid. The laboratory repetition test for liquefaction evaluation can be performed through a repeated triaxial compression test and a repeated shear test. In this regard, this study attempted to evaluate the effects of the relative density of sand on the liquefaction resistance strength according to particle size distribution using repeated triaxial compression tests, and additional experimental verification using numerical analysis was conducted to overcome the limitations of experimental equipment. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the liquefaction resistance strength increased as the relative density increased regardless of the classification of soil, and the liquefaction resistance strength of the SP sample close to SW was quite high. As a result of numerical analysis, it was confirmed that the liquefaction resistance strength increased as the confining pressure increased under the same relative density, and the liquefaction resistance strength did not decrease below a certain limit even though the confining pressure was significantly reduced at a relatively low relative density. This is judged to be due to a change in confining pressure according to the depth of the ground. As a result of analyzing the liquefaction resistance strength according to the frequency range, it was confirmed that there was no significant difference from the laboratory experiment results in the basic range of 0.1 to 1.0 Hz.

Based on the equivalent uniform stress concept Presented by Seed and Idriss, sinusoidal cyclic loads which simplified earthquake loads have been applied in evaluating the liquefaction resistance strength experimentally. However, the liquefaction resistance strength of soil based on the equivalent uniform stress concept can not exactly reflect the dynamic characteristics of the irregular earthquake motion. The liquefaction assessment method which was invented by using the equivalent uniform stress concept is suitable for the severe earthquake region such as Japan or USA, so the proper method to Korea is needed. In this study, estimation of the resistance to liquefaction was conducted by applying real earthquake loading to the cyclic triaxial test. From the test results, the characteristics of the fine sand under moderate earthquake were analyzed and compared with the results under strong earthquakes. Typically real earthquake loads used in this study are divided into two types - impact type and vibration type. Furthermore, results of the liquefaction resistance strength based on the equivalent uniform stress concept and tile concept using real earthquake loading were compared.

An experimental assessment on the dynamic behavior of saturated sand which can consider the irregular characteristics of earthquakes was proposed. The equivalent uniform stress concept presented by Seed and Idriss has been applied to evaluate the liquefaction resistance strength to simplify earthquake loading. However, it was known that the liquefaction resistance strength of soil based on the equivalent uniform stress concept can't exactly mirror the dynamic characteristics of the irregular earthquake motion. In this study, estimation of the criterion of the liquefaction resistance strength was determined by applying real earthquake loading to the cyclic triaxial test. From the test results, relationships between excess pore water pressure and the earthquake characteristics such as magnitude or duration were determined. Magnitude scaling factors to determine the soil liquefaction resistance strength in seismic design were also proposed.

최근까지 지반의 액상화 저항강도를 산정하기 위한 실내시험의 대부분은 실지진하중을 재하하기보다는 Seed와 Idriss(1975)가 제안한 등가전단응력 개념에 기초하여 지진이 발생시키는 최대전단응력의 65%를 최대진폭으로 한 정현하중을 반복재하시켜왔다. 이러한 정현하중이 정확하게 실제 지반에 작용하는 불규칙한 지진력을 모사하고 있다고 볼 수 없으나, 시험상의 편의성으로 인해 현재까지도 이용이 빈번한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실제 지진하중 하에서 포화 사질토의 거동변화를 규명하고자 정현하중이 아닌 불규칙한 지진하중을 이용한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 다양한 지진규모의 실지진 시간이력을 진동하중으로 작용시킨 진동삼축시험을 통해 지진규모 및 지속시간의 변화에 따른 포화사질토의 동적 특성을 실험적으로 규명하고 기존의 등가전단응력 개념에 기초한 액상화 저항강도와 비교분석하였다. 또한, 중약진 지진대로 구분되는 국내 실정을 고려하여 다양한 지진규모에 적용가능한 수정계수를 제시하고 이를 기존의 연구결과와 비교분석하였다.

The effects of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient of dredged soils to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics are experimentally studied in this paper. Representative 4 mean particle sizes and 3 uniformity coefficients were selected and 12 representative particle size distribution curves which have different mean particle sizes and uniformity coefficients, were artificially manufactured using the real dredged river soil. Cyclic triaxial tests and torsional shear tests were carried out to analyze the effect of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics of soils.

액상화 현상이란 지반이 포화된 느슨한 사질토 지반에 지진과 같은 동적하중이 급속히 작용할 때 과잉간극수압이 발생하고, 지반이 유효응력을 상실하고 액체화 되는 현상을 말한다. 액상화 평가를 위한 실내반복시험은 반복삼축압축시험과 반복전단시험을 통하여 확인이 가능하다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 반복삼축압축시험을 이용한 모래의 상대밀도와 입도분포에 따른 액상화 저항 강도를 확인하고자 하였고, 실험장비의 신뢰도 검증과 결과의 타당성을 확인하고자 기존의 선행연구와 대조하여 비교·분석하였다. 실험결과, 흙의 분류에 상관없이 상대밀도가 증가함에 따라 액상화 저항 강도가 높아짐을 확인하였고, 모래의 입도분포에 따른 액상화 저항강도는 SW에 가까운 SP시료의 액상화 저항강도가 상당히 높게 확인되었다. 또한 세립분 0% 대비 세립분 30%를 분석한 결과, 상대밀도 40~70%까지 증가함에 따라 액상화 저항강도가 5~20% 가까이 감소하였고, 국내 풍화토 지반이 주문진 표준사 대비 액상화 저항 강도가 세립분이 10%일 때는 30% 이상, 세립분이 30%일 때는 50% 이상 낮게 측정되었다.

In this study, cyclic triaxial tests were performed with the samples which were anisotropically consolidated using irregular earthquake loading to consider in-situ condition and seismic wave. The consolidation pressure ratio(K) was changed from 0.5 to 1.0. The Ofunato and Hachinohe wave are applied as irregular earthquake loading and liquefaction resistance strength was estimated from excess pore water pressure(EPWP) ratio. As results of the cyclic triaxial tests, buildup of EPWP ratio increased as K value increased. It shows, that the isotropically consolidated sands is more susceptible to liquefaction than anisotropically consolidated sands under equal conditions such as confining pressure and dynamic loading.

액상화는 비배수조건에서 흙 강도의 갑작스러운 감소에 기인한다. 이러한 흙 강도의 손실은 과잉간극수압의 발현과 관련된다. 본 연구에서는 최대 및 최소간극비에 영향을 미치는 세립분 함유량이 조사되었다. 또한 포화된 실트질 모래에 대한 정적 및 동적 삼축시험의 결과를 제시하였다. 이들 시험은 액상화강도와 정적 및 동적 거동 특성을 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 시료는 새만금 유역에서 채취되었으며 공기건조되었다. 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 최대 및 최소간극비선은 유사한 경향으로 나타났다. 2) 최대 및 최소간극비는 20~30%의 세립분 함유량에서 얻어졌다. 3) 구속압력과 과압밀비가 증가할수록 액상화에 대한 저항은 증가하였다. 4) 불안정마찰각은 초기상대밀도의 증가와 함께 커졌다. 5) 유효응력비가 증가함에 따라 액상화에 대한 저항은 감소하였다.

In this study, the effect of relative density and fine contents(Finer then # 0.08mm sieve) on liquefaction phenomenon in reclaimed land by hydraulic hammer compaction is analyzed. For more site-specific studies, reclaimed land in Inchon International Airport is selected and the cyclic triaxial tests are performed on disturbed samples. In cyclic triaxial tests, the characteristics of reclaimed land in Inchon International Airport are considered sufficiently. The liquefaction resistance stress ratio ($\tau$$\ell$/$\sigma$v') can be defined by relative density 40, 50, 60, and 70% and also by fine contents : 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% under relative density (D$\_$r/) 50% used disturbed samples. From tile result of comparing tile cyclic triaxial tests, it is shown that the liquefaction strength of soil increases with increases of relative density and fine contents. Fspecially fine contents is the main factor affecting the liquefaction potential. In addition, the liquefaction resistance stress ratio is reduced by the increase of fine content and tile ratio of change is steep until fine contents 20% and that is flexible during the range of fine contents 20% to 40%. Through this study, it is proved that the soil characteristics (fine contents 5∼20%) of the reclaimed land in Inchon International Airport flays an important role in the reduction of liquefaction potential.
