  • 그 동안 몇 차례 오스터버그 셀$(O-cell^{\circledR})$을 이용한 양방향 말뚝 재하시험기법이 국내에 성공적으로 소개/적용된 바 있다. 이 방법은 상대적으로 새롭고 독특한 방법으로서 시험비용과 기존 재래적인 시험방법이 적용상 제한을 받는 경우나 대규모 시험에서 발생할 수 있는 문제점들을 극복할 수 있다. 국내에서는 설계목적을 위한 시험말뚝 뿐 아니라 설계하중이 큰 실제말뚝에 대한 시험이 증가하는 추세에 있다. 이 논문에서 소개하는 양방향 재하시험 방법을 적용하면 기존의 소규모 재하시험 방법에서 발생될 수 있는 주면 마찰력과 선단지지력의 분리측정이나 각각의 지지력에 대한 극한상태를 확인하지 못하는 한계를 극복할 수 있고 시험하중이 270MN을 초과하는 경우까지 적용할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 오스터버그 셀을 이용한 정적 재하시험 방법에 대하여 말뚝종류별로 상세히 기술하였으며 이 시험방법의 장점과 국내현장에 적용되었던 사례를 소개하였다.

  • 도심지에서의 터널은 주로 얕은 토층비에서 이루어진다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 토층비 1, 2 정도의 얕은 터널에 대한 터널시공을 고려하였다. 또한, 도심지 얕은 터널에서 겪게 되는 어려움 중 하나인 지상구조물의 손상을 방지하는 것이다. 이러한 경우, 구조물의 손상을 방지하기 위해 소형장비로 간단하고 저렴한 시공이 가능한 마이크로 파일공법의 채택이 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로 파일의 설치위치와 설치각도 및 두부 고정도를 달리한 실험을 실시하여 토압 및 지표면 침하를 중심으로 그 영향을 평가하였다. 마이크로 파일의 설치위치에 있어서 거리비(A/L$_{p}$) 0.5 이내에서 침하감소면에서 대략 22%~37% 정도의 효과가 있었으며, 마이크로 파일의 두부는 파일간 서로 결속하는 것이 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 경향은 토압분포에서도 마찬가지이다.다.

  • The Berkovich nano-indentation is an indentation test method analyzing mechanical properties of materials such as hardness and elastic modulus. The length scale of the penetration is measured in nanometers. Therefore, this method becomes widely useful for analyzing the mechanical property of thin film which can not be measured before. In this paper, comparing two results of the load-displacement curve obtained by the Berkovich nano-indentation and the 3-D finite element analysis, it was confirmed that the 3-D finite element analysis is useful. The phenomenon of pile-up and sink-in due to material properties was discussed by the finite element analysis.

  • This study evaluated the side resistance of drilled shafts socketed into rock sections. Commonly used analysis methods for side resistance of piles in rocks are examined by utilizing a large number of load test data. The analysis of the unit side resistance of pile foundations embedded into rock sections is based on an empirical coefficient (α) and the uniaxial compressive strength (qu) or its root (${\sqrt{q_u}}$). The Davisson criterion was used to interpret the resistance capacity from the load test results to acquire the computed relationships. The α-${\sqrt{q_u}}$ relationship is proven to be reliable in the prediction of friction resistance. This study further analyzed the relationship by including the effect of rock quality designation (RQD) on the results. Analysis results showed that the analysis model of α-${\sqrt{q_u}}$-RQD provided better prediction and reliability considering the RQD classification. Based on these analyses, the side resistance of drilled shafts socked into rocks is provided with statistical data to support the analysis.

  • Two large diameter steel cased piles (TS-1 and TS-2) were installed and load-tested with the maximum load of 2000 ton at Kwang-An grand bridge. One of the test piles (TS-1) was socketed into the fresh rock and the other test pile (TS-2) was socketed into the weathered rock. Most loads were carried by the weathered rock layer at the maximum applied load for the test piles. In addition, numerical studies were performed using PENTAGON 3D and ROCKET. Based on this study, the weathered rock layer provided sufficient side resistances and possibility of an alternative embedded layer if weathered rocks are deeply layered over fresh rock, which caused difficulties and cost in construction.

  • The accurate prediction of grouting upward diffusion height is crucial for estimating the bearing capacity of tip-grouted piles. Borehole construction during the installation of bored piles induces soil unloading, resulting in both radial stress loss in the surrounding soil and an impact on grouting fluid diffusion. In this study, a modified model is developed for predicting grout diffusion height. This model incorporates the classical rheological equation of power-law cement grout and the cavity reverse expansion model to account for different degrees of unloading. A series of single-pile tip grouting and static load tests are conducted with varying initial grouting pressures. The test results demonstrate a significant effect of vertical grout diffusion on improving pile lateral friction resistance and bearing capacity. Increasing the grouting pressure leads to an increase in the vertical height of the grout. A comparison between the predicted values using the proposed model and the actual measured results reveals a model error ranging from -12.3% to 8.0%. Parametric analysis shows that grout diffusion height increases with an increase in the degree of unloading, with a more pronounced effect observed at higher grouting pressures. Two case studies are presented to verify the applicability of the proposed model. Field measurements of grout diffusion height correspond to unloading ratios of 0.68 and 0.71, respectively, as predicted by the model. Neglecting the unloading effect would result in a conservative estimate.

  • In this research, the effect of rock mass weathering on the side shear resistance of drilled shaft socketed into weathered rock was investigated. For that, a database of 23 cast-in-place concrete piles with diameters varying from 400mm to 1,500mm were socketed into weathered igneous/meta-igneous rock at four different sites. The static axial load tests were performed to examine the resistant behavior of the piles, and a comprehensive field/laboratory testing program at the field test site was also performed to describe the in situ rock mass conditions quantitatively. No correlation was found between the compressive strengths of intact rock and the side shear resistance of weathered/soft rock. The ground investigation data regarding the rock mass conditions (e.g. $E_m,\;E_{ur},\;_{plm}$, RMR, RQD, j) was found to be highly correlated with the side shear resistance, showing the coefficients of correlation greater than 0.7 in most cases. Additionally, the applicability of existing methods for the side shear resistance of piles in rock was verified by comparison with the field test data. The existing empirical relations between the compressive strength of intact rock and the side shear resistance(Horvath (1982), Rowe & Armitage(1987) etc.) appeared to overestimated the side shear resistance of all piles tested in this research unless additional consideration on the effect of rock mass weathering or fracturing was applied. The existing methods which consider the effect of rock mass condition were modified and/or extended for weathered rock mass where mass factor j is lower than 0.1, and RQD is below 50%.

  • Generally, application of steel pipe pile as deep foundation member needs special requirement for the connection method between steel pipe pile and concrete footing. Even though two types of connection method are suggested in the related specification, type B-method is provident. To investigate real structural behavior of type B connection, several load tests are done with carefully designed experimental system. The purpose of this experiment is mainly focused on the understanding of actual behavior which can be predicted by design theory. At this research stage, vertical and lateral loading test are done for three types of specimen to review stress concentration, formation and behavior of imaginary RC column in the footing and effect of non-slip device installed in the steel pipe pile. The load resistance mechanism in these specific connection method is predicted based on both experimental results. The three-dimensional finite element modeling is also done for the purpose of comparison between numerical and experimental result. With all the results gained from experiment the structural behavior of imaginary RC column in the design concept is confirmed. The role of non-slip device is very important and it affects the resistance capacity with help of composite action of concrete and steel pipe pile.
