  • In this study, the field test for suction drain method which does not require a surcharge load and a sealing sheet was performed at west seashore's site constructed by the dredged and reclaimed clay. The improvements of soft ground by suction drain method was analyzed by the results of real-time field measurement, SPT(Standard Penetration Test) and laboratory tests. The results indicated that the soft ground improvement is effective the vertical drain method used with vacuum pressure rather than surcharge load with considering settlements, dissipation of pore water pressure and shear strength.

  • Critical surcharge value of silt ground polluted with garbage leachate to the dyes $q_{cr}=3.73c_u$ and ultimate bearing capacity value $q_{ult}=8.60c_u$. Lateral flow pressure at polluted silt ground was about $P_{max}$/3 and depth of maximum lateral flow pressure was found at that of H/3 of soft layer thickness(H). Expression of polluted silt ground of fracture baseline at stability control charge by Matsuo Kawamura is $S_v=3.56\exp\{0.51(Y_m/S_v)\}$.

  • In this study, the ground settlement in backside of retaining wall and the behavior of the retaining wall were analyzed according to the method of groundwater drawdown due to excavation by using two-dimensional(2D) finite element analysis. Numerical analysis was performed by applying 1) fixed groundwater level, 2) constant groundwater drawdown, and 3) transient groundwater drawdown. In addition, the behavior of the retaining wall according to the initial groundwater level, ground conditions, and surcharge pressure in backside of retaining wall was evaluated. Based on the numerical analysis results, it was confirmed that when the groundwater level is at 0.1H from the ground surface (H: Excavation soil height), the wall displacement and ground settlement are not affected by the method of groundwater drawdown, regardless of soil conditions (dense or loose) and surcharge pressure. On the other hand, when the groundwater level is at 0.5H from the ground surface, the method of groundwater drawdown was found to have a significant effect on wall displacement and ground settlement. In this case, the difference in ground settlement presents by up to 4 times depending on the method of groundwater drawdown, and the surcharge load could increase the ground settlement by up to 1.5 times.

  • Rankine's theory of earth pressure cannot be directly employed to c-${\phi}$ soils backfill with a sloping ground subjected to complex loadings. In this paper, an analytical solution for active earth pressures on retaining structures of cohesive backfill with an inclined surface subjected to surcharge, pore water pressure and seismic loadings, are derived on the basis of the lower-bound theorem of limit analysis combined with Rankine's earth pressure theory and the Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion. The generalized active earth pressure coefficients (dimensionless total active thrusts) are presented for use in comprehensive design charts which eliminate the need for tedious and cumbersome graphical diagram process. Charts are developed for rigid earth retaining structures under complex environmental loadings such as the surcharge, pore water pressure and seismic inertia force. An example is presented to illustrate the practical application for the proposed coefficient charts.

  • This study expanded Terzaghi arching formula, which assumed a vertical surface as a sliding surface, to consider an arbitrarily inclined surface as a sliding surface and examined the effect of a sliding surface. This study firstly developed a formula to expand the existing Terzaghi arching formula to consider an inclined surface as well as a vertical surface as a sliding surface under the downward movement of a trap door. Using the expanded formula, the effect of excavation, ground, and surcharge conditions on a vertical stress was examined and the results were compared with them from Terzaghi arching formula. The comparison indicated that the induced vertical stress was highly affected by the angle of an inclined sliding surface and the degree of influence depended on the excavation, ground, and surcharge conditions. It is expected that the results from this study would provide a better understanding of various arching phenomenon in the future.

  • 본 연구에서는 보강토옹벽 상부에 재하된 상재하중 및 보강재 종류의 변화에 따른 토목섬유 보강토옹벽의 벽체 변위 특성을 평가하기 위하여 일련의 모형실험을 수행하였다. 모형 보강토옹벽은 높이${\times}$길이${\times}$폭이 $100cm{\times}140cm{\times}100cm$인 모형토조 내에 축조하였다. 모형 보강토옹벽 축조시 뒤채움흙으로는 통일분류법상 SM으로 분류될 수 있는 화강풍화토를 사용하였고, 보강재로는 인장강도 특성이 다른 3종류의 토목섬유(지오네트 한 종류 및 지오그리드 두 종류)를 사용하여 총 7종류의 모형 보강토옹벽에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 모형 보강토옹벽 축조후 상재하중 재하에 따른 벽체 변위를 LVDT를 이용하여 측정하였다. 모형실험 결과, 토목섬유 보강토옹벽의 최대 수평변위는 벽체 저면에서부터 0.7H지점에서 발생하고, 그 크기는 보강재의 인장강도가 증가할 수록 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 상재하중이 증가할수록 토목섬유 보강으로 인한 벽체변위의 감소율은 감소하였다.

  • 보강토체 상부에 작용하는 상재하중과 보강재의 인장강도 및 포설 단수가 보강토옹벽의 변형거동에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 7종류의 축소모형 보강토옹벽을 축조하여 상재하중 재하실험을 수행하였다. 축소모형 보강토옹벽은 $100cm{\times}140cm{\times}100cm$ 크기의 모형토조 내에서 1m 높이로 축조하였으며, 인장강도가 상이한 3종류의 보강재를 사용하여 포설 단수를 5단, 7단, 9단으로 변화시키고, 5종류(50, 100, 150, 200, 250kPa)의 상재하중을 단계적으로 재하하면서 전면벽체의 수평변위와 보강재의 인장변형률 및 보강토체 저면의 수직응력 등을 측정하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 전면벽체의 수평변위는 보강토옹벽 하단부에서 가장 작고 보강토옹벽 하단으로부터 0.7H (H : 옹벽 높이) 지점에서 가장 큰 비선형적인 형태를 보여주며, 상재하중이 작고 보강재의 인장강도가 클수록 보강재의 상대적인 보강효과가 크게 발현되어 보강토체 하부의 수직응력이 작게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

  • The bearing mechanism of pile during installation and loading process which controls the deformation and distribution of strain and stress in the soil surrounding pile tip is complex and full of much uncertainty. It is pointed out that particle crushing occurs in significant stress concentrated region such as the area surrounding pile tip. The solution to this problem requires the understanding and modeling of the mechanical behavior of granular soil under high pressures. This study aims to investigate the sand behavior around pile tip considering the characteristics of sand crushing. The numerical analysis of model pile loading test under different surcharge pressure with constitutive model for sand crushing is presented. This constitutive model is capable of predicting the dilatancy of soil from negative to positive under low confining pressure and only negative dilatancy under high confining pressure. The predicted relationships between the normalized bearing stress and normalized displacement are agreeable with the experimental results during the entire loading process. It is estimated from numerical results that the vertical stress beneath pile tip is up to 20 MPa which is large enough to cause sand to be crushed. The predicted distribution area of volumetric strain represents that the distributed area shaped wedge for volumetric contraction is beneath pile tip and distributed area for volumetric expansion is near the pile shaft. It is demonstrated that the finite element formulation incorporating a constitutive model for sand with crushing is capable of producing reasonable results for the pile loading problem.
