The major factors that control the performance of reinforced soil structures is the interaction between the soil and the reinforcement. Thus it is necessary to obtain the accurate bond parameters to be used in the design of these structures. To evaluate the behavior of flyash + clay soil reinforced with a woven geotextile, 36 Unconsolidated-Undrained (UU) and 12 reinforced Consolidated-Undrainrained (CU) triaxial compression tests were conducted. The moisture content of soil during remolding, confining pressures and arrangement of geotextile layers were all varied so that the behavior of the sample could be examined. The stress strain patterns, drainage, modulus of deformation, effect of confinement pressures, effects of moisture content have been evaluated. The impact of moisture content in flyash + clay backfills on critical shear parameters was also studied to recommend placement moisture for compaction to MDD. The results indicate that geotextile reinforced flyash + clay backfill might be a viable alternative in reinforced soil structures if good-quality granular backfill material is not readily available.

자연상태의 점성토는 Ko상태로 존재하며 하중재하시 주웅력방향에 따라 다르게 거동하는 이방적 특성을 갖는다. 그러나 실험실에서 점성토의 강도특성을 파악하기 위하여 실시하고 있는 실험은 실용성과 간편성 때문에 등방압밀 삼축시험이 보편적으로 사용되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 정규압밀점성토의 이방적 특성과 압밀방법에 따른 전단특성을 고찰하기 위하여 토괴의 형태로 채취한 불교란 점성토를 등방압밀 또는 Ko압밀시켜 정규압밀상태에 도달하게 한 후 비배수삼축압축과 신장시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과 주응력방향에 따른 강도의 이방성을 작인하였다. 등방압 밀은 압밀시 시료에 가해지는 Ko상태보다 높은 평균주응력과 흙의 이방적 구조의 파괴때문에 비 배수강도를 과대평가하며 이방성이 감소하고 응력-변형률과 발생 과잉간극수압이 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 과압밀점성토의 경우 과압밀비를 감소시킨다. 또한 내부마찰각은 신장시험이 압축시험보다 큰 값을 나타내지만 파괴시의 응력상태를 이용하여 회귀분석한 결과에 따르면 신장시 점착력과 함께 나타나는 내부마찰각은 압축시험과 거의 같은 값을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

콘 관입시험 결과는 현장의 비배수전단강도 결정을 위하여 광범위하게 활용되고 있으며, 이를 위하여 지역별로 적절한 경험적 콘 지수($N_{kt}$, $N_{ke}$, $N_{{\Delta}u}$)의 결정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 창원 북면 지역 지반에 대하여 일축 압축시험 및 비압밀비배수 삼축압축시험 결과를 이용하여 콘 지수를 산정하였으며, 소성지수 및 간극수압비와의 관계를 고찰하였다. $N_{kt}$, $N_{ke}$, $N_{{\Delta}u}$은 각각 8~40, 7~37, 1~26으로 산정되었으며, 간극수압비와 비교적 큰 연관성이 있음이 고찰되었다.

Triaxial compression tests were run to study on the undrained strength characteristics of fiber mixed kaolin clay(Hadong). The influence of various test parameters such as amount and aspect ratio(ratio of length to diameter) of fiber, confining stress was also investigated. Test results showed that the increase in aspect ratio was increased in deviator stress at failure, but no effect on pore water pressure at failure. Deviator stress at failure was also increased at 0.5％ mixing ratio(weight fraction of fiber to that of soil solid) of fiber but it was, thereafter, decreased and wits reached to constant after 2％ mixing ratio. On the contrary, Pore water pressure at failure was increased as mixing ratio of fiber was greater than 1%. Deviator stress and pore water pressure of both clay and fiber mixed clay(FMC) at failure were increased as confining stress was increased. Deviator stress of FMC at failure was about 10％ larger than that of clay, but pore water pressure of FMC at failure was almost similar to that of clay.

The engineering properties of the geomaterial, an essential material in construction engineering, are significantly influenced by consolidation mode, which is called inherent anisotropy. Speically cohesive soils feature the anisotropy mainly due to their flate-like minerals and chemical interactions. In this research, an experimental study was conducted for the investigation of the anisoropy. Three isotropic and four anisotropic consolidated-undrained triaxial compression tests were performed for the cohesive specimens with various stress ratios of consolidation. The effects of the consolidation mode for cohesive soils were presented and investigated in stress-strain behavior, pore water pressure, and undrained shear strength of the test results.

This paper presents a series of conventional undrained triaxial compression tests conducted to determine the effect of both tire crumbs and cement addition on Narli sand specimens. The tire crumb contents and cement contents were 3%, 7%, 15%; and 1%, 3%, 5% by dry weight of the sand specimens respectively. Specimens were prepared at about 35% relative density, cured during overnight (about 17 hours) for artificially bonding under a 100 kPa effective stress (confining pressure of 500 kPa with a back pressure of 400 kPa), and then sheared. Deviatoric stress-axial strain, pore water pressure-axial strain behavior, and Young's modulus of the specimens at various mixture ratios of tire crumb/cement/sand were measured. Test results indicated that the addition of tire crumb to sand decreases Young's modulus, deviatoric stress and brittleness, and increase pore water pressure generation. The addition of cement to sand with tire crumbs increases deviatoric stress, Young's modulus, and changes its ductile behavior to a more brittle one. The results suggest that specimen formation in the way used here could reduce the tire disposal problem in not only economically, and environmentally, but also more effectively beneficial way for some geotechnical applications.

Natural clays exhibit features such as structural and anisotropy. In this work, a constitutive model that is able to replicate these two salient features of natural clays is presented. The proposed model is based on the classical S-CLAY1 model, where the anisotropy of the soil is captured through the initial inclination and rotation of the yield surface. To account for the structural of the soil, the compression curve of the reconstituted soil is taken as the reference. All parameters of the proposed constitutive model have clear physical meanings and can be conveniently determined from conventional triaxial tests. This proposed model has been used to simulate the behavior of soft soil in the undrained triaxial tests and the performance of Murro embankment in terms of settlement and horizontal displacements during embankment construction and consolidation stage. Results of numerical simulations using proposed model have been compared with the field measurement data. The comparisons show that the two features significantly influence the prediction results.

An elastoplastic model for structured clays, which is formulated based on the fact that the difference in mechanical behavior of structured and reconstituted clays is caused by the change of fabric in the post-yield deformation range, is present in this paper. This model is developed from an elastoplastic model for overconsolidated reconstituted clays, by considering that the variation in the yield surface of structured clays is similar to that of overconsolidated reconstituted clays. However, in order to describe the mechanical behavior of structured clays with precision, the model takes the bonding and parabolic strength envelope into consideration. Compared with the Cam-clay model, only two new parameters are required in the model for structured clays, which can be determined from isotropic compression and triaxial shear tests at different confining pressures. The comparison of model predictions and results of drained and undrained triaxial shear tests on four different marine clays shows that the model can capture reasonable well the strength and deformation characteristics of structured clays, including negative and positive dilatancy, strain-hardening and softening during shearing.

본 연구는 온도에 따른 점성토의 전단 변형의 특성의 모사에 초점을 맞춘다. 일반적으로 온도가 상승할수록 정규압밀선은 간극비와 평균유효응력의 평면에서 하향 이동한다. 하지만 한계상태선은 온도변화에 따라 정규압밀선만큼 이동하지는 않는다. 따라서, 온도가 증가할수록, 한계상태 평균유효응력과 선행압밀 평균유효응력의 차이는 감소한다. 이를 반영하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 한계상태 평균유효응력을 기준으로 두 부분으로 나뉘어진 경계면을 적용하였다. 또한 Bangkok 점성토에 대해서 경계면을 구축하고, 비배수 삼축압축시험에 대해서 요소해석을 실시하였다. 요소해석 결과, 제안된 모델은 복잡한 강성 혹은 발달 법칙 없이 실험 데이터와 유사한 점성토의 온도에 따른 역학적 거동을 잘 모사하였다.

지반의 비배수강도 값 결정을 위하여 최근 콘 관입시험 결과가 많이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 비배수강도 값은 콘 계수 값에 절대적으로 의존하며, 해당 지역에 적합한 콘 계수 값의 결정을 위하여는 많은 시험결과의 축적 및 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 경기도 시화지구 북동지역 점성토 지반에 대하여 수행된 현장베인시험, 일축압축시험 및 비압밀비배수 삼축압축시험 결과를 이용하여 각 시험결과별 콘 계수 값을 산정하였으며, 이를 비교 분석하였다. 전통적 콘 계수 $N_{kt}$, $N_{ke}$, $N_e$ 및 새로운 콘 계수 $N_e$ 값들은 각각 12, 11, 3, 13으로 산정되었으며, $N_{{\Delta}u}$와 간극수압비 Bq 사이에 특정한 경향이 있음이 고찰되었다.
