This paper estimates the long-term settlement of In-cheon unsanitary solid waste landfills. which is 20 years old. The unsanitary solid waste landfills was subjected to pre-loading system over a period of 1 year, and the settlement for 300 landfill monitors provided measured data. This landfill contain relatively small amount of organic component, therefore the initial stage of settlement was very small. The existing settlement models are examineed to compare with the observed behavior of this site and, also to estimate long-term settlement. The Hyperbolic, Bjarngard & Edgers, and Power Creep Law models showed good agreement well with the measured settlement of the In-cheon unsanitary solid waste landfills.

This study was carried out for the purpose of pre-estimating long-term settlement under condition of actual field soil's property, in case of building up industrial sites on the marine deposit silty clay located at West Coast in Korea. This study analyzed Hyperbolic Method, Square Root Time Method and Exponential Function Method with utilization of measured survey values of settlement in In-Cheon Namdong Industrial Sites. In the future, for the continuos utilization, it seemed to be needed that further the survey values of fields should be accurartely measured for the analysis of more accurate pre-estimate about long-term settlement. Among the prediction methods of settlement Hyperbolic Method seemed to be the best fitting method for measured data. The settlement equations were derived from above three methods, for long-term settlements.

In this study, design charts for estimating consolidation settlement are proposed according to finite strain consolidation theory using a nonlinear constitutive relationship equation. Results of parametric sensitivity analysis shows that the final settlement, initial height, and initial void ratio exerted the greatest effect, and the coefficients of the void ratio-effective-stress. Proposed design charts were analyzed for three regions using a representative constitutive relationship equation that enables major dredged-reclaimed construction sites in Korea. The regional design charts can be calculated accurately for the final settlement because it is applied directly to the numerical analysis results, except for reading errors. A general design chart applicable to all marine clays is proposed through correlation analysis of the main parameters. A final self-weight consolidation settlement with various initial void ratios and initial height conditions should be estimated easily using the general design chart and constitutive relationship. The estimated final settlement using the general design chart is similar to the results of numerical analysis obtained using finite strain consolidation theory. Under an overburden pressure condition, design charts for estimating consolidation settlement are proposed for three regions in Korea.

연구목적: 본 연구에서는 우리나라 중부 내륙지역의 연약지반 침하특성을 분석하여 실무에 활용할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 현장실험연구를 실시하였다. 연구방법: 현장실험에서 실측한 10개의 침하계측 자료를 이용하여 설계예측값과 비교분석을 실시하였다. 설계예측값은 Terzaghi의 일차원 압밀침하량분석을 사용하였다. 실험에서 현장계측은 지표침하판을 이용하였다. 연구결과: 예측값과 실제값의 침하거동은 대체로 유사하였으나 침하량 값에서는 실제 침하량 값이 예측 침하량 값에 비하여 30%이하의 침하거동을 보였다. 본 연구지역의 압밀침하율은 9.6%~27.0% 범위를 나타내었으며 평균값은 18.21% 로서 우리나라 중부지역 내륙의 평야지대에 분포된 실트질 연약지반의 침하량 예측은 비교적 매우 과다하게 예측될 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 결론: 우리나라 중부지역 내륙의 평야지대에 분포된 실트질 연약지반의 침하량 예측 설계에서는 과다설계 가능성이 있으므로 정밀한 지반조사와 세밀한 예측이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, a composite behavior of stone columns reinforced in soft ground, Sabkha, have been evaluated by a series of field measurements and numerical analysis. Field loading tests were performed to verify the effect of the composite ground reinforced by stone columns in Kayan, Saudi. The settlement measured in the field test was compared with the settlement calculated by the Priebe method and the numerical analysis using ABAQUS. It is found that the settlement estimated using the Priebe method significantly overestimated the settlement measured in the field test. In addition, it is confirmed that consideration of confinement effect exerted by surrounding stone columns in a numerical simulation is indispensable to estimate the settlement of composite ground.

항만 터미널 부두 지역의 연약지반 개량을 위해 PBD가 적용되었다. 본 논문은 PBD가 적용된 연약지반에서 PBD가 설치된 직후부터 상부 구조물 운용 후의 잔류침하거동에 대해서 다루고 있다. 기존의 연구는 개량공법 시공 중에 발생하는 침하, 즉 PBD 개량 효과에 대해 주로 이루어졌다. 실제 시설물의 운용 중에 발생하는 잔류침하는 시설물의 유지 및 운용을 위해서는 아주 중요한 요소이나 이 부분에 대한 연구는 매우 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실제로 운용 중에 있는 항만 터미널 부두의 침하량 계측결과를 분석하여 운용 중에 발생한 침하량은 PBD 개량층에서 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 계측값과 수치해석 값을 비교한 결과 계측값이 수치해석에 의해 예측된 잔류침하량 내에서 수렴하는 것도 확인하였다.

연약 점성토 지반에 고속국도 등 대규모 SOC 공사 시 과대한 침하량으로 인하여 많은 문제점들이 발생하고 있어 정확한 침하예측은 개량공법의 선정, 사업비, 사업기간에 많은 영향을 미치게 된다. 현재 설계 시 사용되고 있는 대부분의 침하량 예측기법으로는 연약 점성토 지반의 두께를 단일층으로 하여 1차원 Terzaghi 압밀이론을 적용하고 있다. 그러나 연약 점성토 지반의 침하예측 시 대상층을 다수의 수평층으로 분할할 경우 침하량에 변화가 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 성토고 변화 조건에서 연약점성토지반 수평분할에 따른 압밀침하거동을 분석하였다.

In soft ground the settlement criterion usually governs. Therefore, it is very important not only reasonable assessment of the allowable bearing capacity of the soil but also reasonable assessment of settlement. In the previous studies by many other researchers, load concentration ratio and settlement reduction factor are usually proposed for estimating the settlement of granular compaction piles. In the previous studies, the reinforced ground with granular compaction piles is simplified as composite ground and the analysis is performed with in the basis of this assumption. However, the lateral deformation of granular compaction pile could not be considered and only the relative vertical strength between pile and soils could be considered in the analysis. In this study, a method adapting the Tresca failure criterion is proposed for calculating settlement of granular compaction pile. Proposed method can be considered the strength of pile material, pile diameter, installing distance of pile and the deformation behavior of vertical and horizontal directions of pile. In the presented study, large-scale field load test is performed and the results are described. Also, predictions of settlements from the proposed method are compared with the results of the load test. In addition, a series of parametric study is performed and the design parameters are analyzed.

연구목적: 실트질 함유가 높으며 다양한 응력이력 때문에 침하량 예측에 어려움이 있는 우리나라의 서해안 중부지역의 연약점토지반의 침하량 특성을 분석하기 위하여 실험을 실시하였다. 연구방법: 3개의 경우에 대한 현장실험을 실시하였다. 각각의 경우에 대하여 침하판 침하량을 계측하였으며 Terzaghi의 일차원 압밀침하량, 쌍곡선법(hyperbolic method)과 Asaoka법을 모두 분석하여 실무에 유용한 결론을 도출하였다. 연구결과: Terzaghi에 의한 예측값이 모든 경우에서 가장 큰 것으로 분석되었으며 침하판 침하값에 비하여 111%~187%로 크게 예측하였다. 즉, 실제 지반의 침하량인 침하판 침하값이 Terzaghi의 예측값에 비하여 53.4~89.9% 의 침하를 나타내었다. 따라서, 우리나라 중부 서해안 점토질 연약지반에서 Terzaghi방법에 의한 예상침하량은 실제 침하량보다 과다하게 예상하는 것으로 분석되었다. 결론: Asaoka방법과 쌍곡선 방법은 비교적 유사한 결과를 제시한 것으로 분석되었으며, 실무에서는 실제 침하량 보다 작게 침하량을 예측할 경우 위험을 초래할 수 있으므로 실제 침하량보다 6~14% 크게 예측한 쌍곡선 분석법이 안전측으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

As a case study of an ex-post evaluation of regulations, in this paper I evaluate the 'uniform settlement rate requirement', a regulation that was introduced in 1986 and that was applied to the international telephone market in the U.S. for more than 20 years. In a bilateral market between the U.S. and a foreign country, each U.S. firm and its foreign partner jointly provide international telephone service in both directions, compensating each other for terminating incoming calls to their respective countries. The per-minute compensation amount for providing the termination service, referred to as the settlement rate, is determined by a bargaining process involving the two firms. In principle, each U.S. firm could have a different settlement rate for the same foreign country. In 1986, however, the Federal Communications Commission introduced the Uniform Settlement Rate Requirement (USRR), which required all U.S. firms to pay the same settlement rate to a given foreign country. The USRR significantly affected the relative bargaining positions of the U.S. and foreign firms, thereby changing negotiated settlement rates. This paper identifies two main routes through which the settlement rates are changed by the implementation of the USRR: the Competition-Induced-Incentive Effect and the Most-Favored-Nation Effect. I then empirically evaluate the USRR by estimating a bargaining model and conducting counterfactual experiments aimed at measuring the size of the two effects of the USRR. The experiments show remarkably large impacts due to the USRR. Requiring a uniform settlement rate, for instance, results in an average 32.2 percent increase in the negotiated settlement rates and an overall 13.7 percent ($3.43 billion) decrease in the total surplus in the U.S. These results provide very strong evidence against the implementation of the USRR in the 1990s and early 2000s.
