Earthborne vibrations are induced by construction operation such as pile driving, roadbed compaction, and blasting and also by transit activities such as truck and trains. The earthborne vibration creates the stress waves traveling outward from the source and can structurally damage nearby buildings and structures in the forms of direct damage to structure and damage due to dynamic settlement. The wave propagation characteristics depends on impact or vibration energy, distance from the source, and soil characteristics. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review on the mechanistic of earthborne vibration and the current practice of vibration control and mitigation measures. The paper describes the state of knowledge in the areas of: (1) mechanics of earthborne vibration, (2) damage mechanism by earthborne vibration, (3) calculation, prediction of ground vibration, (4) the criteria of vibration limits, (5) vibration mitigation measures and their performance, and (6) the current practice of vibration control and mitigation measures.

To find axial and lateral responses of impact-driven H piles in embankment(SM), the H piles are instrumented with electric strain gages, dynamic load test is performed during driving, and then the damage of strain gages is checked simultaneously. Axially and laterally static load tests are performed on the same piles after one to nine days as well. Then load-settlement behavior is measured. Furthermore, to find the set-up effect in H pile, No. 4, 16, 26, and R6 piles are restriked about 1, 2, and 14 days after driving. As results, ram height and pile capacity obtained from impact driving control method become 80cm and 210.3∼242.3ton, respectively. At 15 days after driving, allowable bearing capacity by CAPWAP analysis, which 2.5 of the factor of safety is applied for ultimate bearing capacity, increases 10.8%. Ultimate bearing capacity obtained from axially static load test is 306∼338ton. This capacity is 68.5∼75.7% at yield force of pile material and is 4∼4.5 times of design load. Allowable bearing capacity using 2 of the factor of safety is 153∼169ton. Initial stiffness response of the pile is 27.5ton/mm. As the lateral load increases, the horizontal load-settlement behaves linearly to which the lateral load reaches up to 17ton. This reason is filled with sand in the cavity formed between flange and web during pile driving. As the result of reading with electric strain gages, flange material of pile is yielded at 19ton in horizontal load. Thus allowable load of this pile material is 9.5ton when the factor of safety is 2.0. Allowable lateral displacement of this pile corresponding to this load is 23∼36mm in embankment.

연약지반에 시공되는 송전철탑의 경우 말뚝기초가 주로 사용되나, 부등침하로 인한 철탑구조물의 손상이 유발될 수 있으며, 이에 따라 미국과 일본에서는 4각의 기초를 연결보로 연결한 연결형 기초의 사용을 추천하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 송전철탑에 작용하는 하중조건과 연결보의 강성조건이 연결형 말뚝기초의 수평거동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서 1/8 규모의 축소모델을 이용한 연결형 말뚝기초의 수평재하시험을 수행하였다. 본 시험결과 연결형 기초는 말뚝기초에 비하여 지지력이 크고 부등변위등의 송전철탑의 안전성을 저해하는 요인에 저항하는 효율적인 기초 형식인 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 연결보의 상대강성에 따른 효과를 분석한 결과 연결보의 강성이 매트의 강성대비 25%에서 연결형 기초의 형식으로 사용의 효율성이 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

During the last few decades in Korea, the development of hillside or mountain areas has rapidly increased for infrastructure construction such as railroads, highways and housing. Many landslides have occurred during these constructions. Also, the amount and scale of damage caused by landslides have increased every year. In the case of Far East Asia including Korea, the damage of landslides is consequently reported during the wet season. In this paper, the effect of stabilizing piles on slope stability is checked and the behavior of slope soil and piles are observed throughout the year by field measurements in the large-scale cut slopes. In particular a large-scale cut slope situated on the construction site for the express highway in Donghae, Korea. First of all, The behavior of the slope soil was measured by inclinometers during slope modification. Landslides occurred in this area due to the soil cutting for slope modification. The horizontal deformations of slope soil gradually increased and rapidly decreased at depth of sliding surface indicating that the depth of sliding surface below the ground surface can be predicted. On the basis of being able to predict the depth of the sliding surface, stabilizing piles were designed and constructed in this slope. To ensure the stability of the reinforced slope using stabilizing piles, an instrumentation system was installed. The maximum deflection of piles is measured at the pile head and it is noted that the piles deform like deflection on a cantilever beam. The maximum bending stress of piles is measured at the soil layer. The pile above the soil layer is subjected to lateral earth pressure due to driving force of the slope, while pile below soil layer is subjected to subgrade reaction against pile deflection. As a result of research, the effect and applicability of stabilizing piles in large-scale cut slopes could be confirmed sufficiently.

Liquefaction-induced lateral spreading continues to be a major cause of damage to deep foundations. Currently there is a huge uncertainty associated with the maximum lateral pressures and forces applied by the liquefied soil to deep foundations. Furthermore, recent centrifuge and is shaking table tests of pile foundations indicate that the permeability of the liquefied sand is an extremely important and poorly understood factor. This article presents experimental results and analysis of one of the centrifuge tests that were conducted at the 150 g-ton RPI centrifuge to investigate the effect of soil permeability in the response of single piles and pile groups to lateral spreading.

The existing bonding methods of steel pipe piles into pile caps have many problems during construction or design. To overcome these, the composite bonding method of the bolting type and the welding type are proposed in this stud\ulcorner. The full scale test and the numerical analysis using finite element method were performed to verify the function of them. As results, the method of the filled with concrete in steel pipe piles head was good effective to increse strength. And the composite bonding methods are effective to protect the damage caused by earthquake than the bolted bonding method. Also, the composite bonding methods are cheaper than the existing bonding methods and a good construction as well.

최근 철도는 고속화를 위해 콘크리트궤도를 적용하는 추세이고 연약지반 구간에 건설된 철도는 장기간에 걸친 작은 양의 침하발생으로도 침하에 민감한 콘크리트 궤도의 침하량 허용범위를 초과하여 궤도의 손상과 뒤틀림을 초래할 수 있다. 연약지반에 건설된 철도의 잔류침하를 효과적으로 제어 할 수 있는 방법으로 성토지지말뚝공법을 들 수 있으며 성토하중을 말뚝머리로 전달하기 위해 콘크리트 슬라브가 사용되기도 하나 하중이 전달되는 과정에 나타나는 성토체 내부의 아칭효과를 극대화하는 토목섬유를 이용한 방법이 보다 경제적이다. 그러나 토목섬유 등으로 인해 집중된 성토하중을 받는 성토지지용 말뚝은 일반적으로 교량구조물에 사용하는 PHC말뚝을 그대로 사용하고 있으며 이는 필요이상으로 높은 강도의 재료를 사용함으로써 재료의 효율성이 크게 떨어지고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라 해외의 적용사례 조사를 통해 성토지지용으로 가장 적합한 말뚝의 형식으로 현장타설 콘크리트 말뚝을 선정하고 산업부산물을 이용한 배합설계와 압축강도시험을 통해 성토지지용 말뚝재료의 최적 배합조건을 도출하였다. 그리고 최적배합조건을 적용한 성토지지용 현장타설말뚝이 기존 PHC말뚝에 비해 재료의 효율성이 약 2.8배 뛰어나다는 것을 수치해석을 통해 확인하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to introduce case studies on 2 projects for the construction of port facilities in Colombo, Sri lanka. In Queen Elizabeth quay development project in 2000, the damage at the bottom of steel tubular piles were occurred when piles were driven into subsoil for piled wharf structure in Stage 1. In order to prevent same incident in Stage 2 & 3, the pile driveability analysis were executed by dynamic formulas, analysis program, test driving and pile load tests. Through pile driveability analysis, prevention plans were proposed. In Colombo port expansion project in 2008, the mv method was applied to predict a primary consolidation settlement of a subsoil under a breakwater in the calculation stage. The $m_v$ was estimated from results of cone penetration tests and the final settlement by consolidation was calculated with it.

Application of structural load on soft ground can cause lateral movement as well as ground break due to pressing and shearing of ground. Especially, abutment supported by pile foundation can make pile deformed due to lateral movement of ground in order to have harmful effect on structure. According to the result of this study, it is required to consider disturbance of weak soil layer when using lateral movement countermeasure method by EPS construction method as a result of performing study on safety review and EPS construction method with respect to this based on site where lateral movement occurs due to backside soil filling load at bridge abutment installed on weak ground, and it is required to sufficiently consider soil reduction during design of EPS construction method due to lateral movement deformation of soft clay layer by losing ground horizontal resistance force due to plasticity of ground around pile as well as combination part damage with pile head and expansion foundation.
