최근 대규모 토목 건설 프로젝트는 용지 매입비용 및 각종 민원으로 인하여, 공유수면을 매립하거나 해안 및 하천지역의 용지를 활용하고 있다. 공유수면을 매립한 지반이나 해안 및 하천 지역의 지반은 충분한 지지력을 발휘하지 못하는 연약지반이 대부분이다. 이러한 연약지반은 주로 점토나 실트와 같은 미세한 입자의 흙이나 간극이 큰 유기질토 또는 이탄, 느슨한 모래 등으로 이루어진 토층으로 구성되어 있으며, 지하수위가 높기 때문에, 제체 및 구조물의 안정과 침하 문제를 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 지오컴포지트의 수리특성을 평가하기 위해 상재하중에 따른 통수성과 전수성 실내시험을 수행하였으며, 지하수위가 높은 지반에 지하구조물을 축조할 경우 발생될 수 있는 지하수 누수 및 양압력을 제거하기 위하여 토목섬유를 적용한 배수시스템을 연구하였다. 지반의 조건상 양압력으로 인한 문제점이 많이 발생되는 매립지의 준설토를 이용하여 실내배수실험을 수행하였다. 실내 배수실험에서는 실험기 하부에 토목섬유 배수층을 설치한 후에 상부에 준설토를 다져 넣고 상부에서 단계별 수압을 가하여 배수량과 간극수압을 측정하여 각각의 수압에 따른 계측값들과 이론적인 값들과 비교하였다. 실내배수실험의 타당성을 분석하기 위하여 흙이나 암석과 같은 다공질 재료의 간극수압 분포나 이동을 해석하기 위한 2차원 유한요소 해석프로그램을 이용하여 수치해석을 수행하여 실내실험의 결과와 비교하였다.

One of the key issues affecting the promotion of solar water heaters in Taiwan is the severe impact of typhoon each year. An experimental study was conducted to investigate the wind uplift characteristic of a solar collector model with and without a guide plate. The guide plate with different lengths and orientations with respect to wind direction was adopted. It is found that the wind uplift of a solar collector is associated with the tilt angle of the flat panel as expected. A cavity formed between the guide plate and the flat panel has a significant effect on the distributions of streamwsie and lateral pressure. Reduction in uplift is essentially coupled with the projected area of a guide plate on the lower surface of the tilt flat panel.

강한 지진 발생 시 뒤채움내의 과잉간극수압의 증가에 의해 지반이 액상화 되었을 때, 주변의 액상화 지반보다 작은 단위중량을 가진 지중 매설구조물은 부상하는 현상이 발생한다. 뒤채움에서의 과잉간극수압의 증가와 지중 매설 구조물 부상량의 관계를 설명하기 위해 동적 원심모형 실험을 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는, 매설구조물의 부상현상에 영향을 미치는 요인으로써 직접요인과 간접요인이 실험에 고려되었다. 이러한 요인들 중에, 과잉간극수압비의 증가에 영향을 주는 중요한 요인은 직접요인으로써의 지하수위, 뒤채움의 상대밀도, 그리고 입력 지진가속도의 크기이다. 그리고 이 요인들은 지중 매설구조물의 부상량에도 크게 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

A steel-type breakwater that uses a submerged dual horizontal porous plate was originally proposed by Kweon et al. (2005), and its hydrodynamic characteristics and design methodology were investigated in a series of subsequent researches. In particular, Kweon et al. (2011) proposed a method of estimating the vertical uplift force that acts on the horizontal plate, applicable to the design of the pile uplift drag force. However, the difference between the method proposed by Kweon et al. (2011), and the wave force measured at a different time without a phase difference, have not yet been clearly analyzed. In this study, such difference according to the method of estimating the wave force was analyzed, by measuring the wave pressure acting on a breakwater model. The hydraulic model test was conducted in a two-dimensional wave flume of 60.0 m length, 1.5 m height and 1.0 m width. The steepness range of the selected waves is 0.01~0.03, with regular and random signals. 20 pressure gauges were used for the measurement. The analysis results showed that the wave force estimate in the method of Kweon et al. (2011) was smaller than the wave force calculated from the maximum pressure at individual points, under a random wave action. Meanwhile, the method of Goda (1974) that was applied to the horizontal plate produced a smaller wave force, than the method of Kweon et al. (2011). The method of Kweon (2011) was already verified in the real sea test of Kweon et al. (2012), where the safety factor of the pile uplift force was found to be greater than 2.0. Based on these results, it was concluded that the method of estimating the wave force by Kweon et al. (2011) can be satisfactorily used for estimating the uplift force of a pile.

Roof is an integral part of building envelope. It protects occupants from environmental forces such as wind, rain, snow and others. Among those environmental forces, wind is a major factor that can cause structural roof damages. Roof due to wind actions can exhibit either flexible or rigid system responses. At present, a dynamic test procedure available is CSA A123.21-04 for the wind uplift resistance evaluation of flexible membrane-roofing systems and there is no dynamic test procedure available in North America for wind uplift resistance evaluation of rigid membrane-roofing system. In order to incorporate rigid membrane-roofing systems into the CSA A123.21-04 testing procedure, this paper presents the development of a load cycle. For this process, the present study compared the wind performance of rigid systems with the flexible systems. Analysis of the pressure time histories data using probability distribution function and power spectral density verified that these two roofs types exhibit different system responses under wind forces. Rain flow counting method was applied on the wind tunnel time histories data. Calculated wind load cycles were compared with the existing load cycle of CSA A123.21-04. With the input from the roof manufacturers and roofing associations, the developed load cycles had been generalized and extended to evaluate the ultimate wind uplift resistance capacity of rigid roofs. This new knowledge is integrated into the new edition of CSA A123.21-10 so that the standard can be used to evaluate wind uplift resistance capacity of membrane roofing systems.

Recently the energy dependence of LNG resource is being increased. So the enlargement of LNG storage is constructed in the coastal area. Most of LNG tanks are constructed below the ground level, and thus the hydraulic uplift pressure could be a problem against the weight of tank structure. Specifically, the settlement of foundation soil in the LNG tank is also important in the aspect of safety. The low temperature around LNG tank is induced the ground freezing and hence increasing the soil volume and earth pressure. The additional lateral earth pressure due to ground freezing could be applied to the LNG tank. In this study, the stability of LNG storage tank was evaluated with consideration of freezing earth pressure by using computer program TEMP-W.

Anchors are primarily designed and constructed to resist outwardly directed loads imposed on the foundation of a structure. These outwardly directed loads are transmitted to the soil at a greater depth by the anchors. Buried anchors have been used for thousands of years to stabilize structures. Various types of earth anchors are now used for the uplift resistance of transmission towers, utility poles, submerged pipelines, and tunnels. Anchors are also used for the tieback resistance of earth-retaining structures, waterfront structures, at bends in pressure pipelines, and when it is necessary to control thermal stress. In this research, we analyzed the uplift behavior of plate anchors in clay using a laboratory experiment to estimate the uplift behavior of plate anchors under various conditions. To achieve the research purpose, the uplift resistance and displacement characteristics of plate anchors caused by the embedment ratio, plate diameter, and loading rate were studied, compared, and analyzed for various cases.

양압력은 최하층 기초 바닥 슬라브에 직접 작용하여 건물을 상부로 부상시키는 현상을 유발하여 구조물의 안정성을 저해한다. 양압력에 따른 구조물의 안정성을 검토하기 위해, 중부지방의 4개 현장(파주, 안양, 오산 및 강릉)을 선정하여 지하구조물 기초바닥에 계측기를 설치하여 현장계측시험을 수행하였다. 강우량의 영향을 용이하게 파악할 수 있는 6월~9월을 중심으로 계측현장의 강우특성을 분석하였으며, 지하구조물에 영향을 주는 요소 중의 하나인 강우량 이외에도 인접한 하천수위의 변화도 고려하였다. 계측현장에서 측정된 연중 최대양압력은 강릉을 제외하면 기존설계(지하수위가 지표까지 있는 경우)로 평가된 수압의 72%를 초과하지 않았다. 다만, 오산에서 측정된 최대양압력은 약 67%로 나타났지만, 타 현장과 비교할 때, 평균(46%)과의 차이가 커서 신뢰성이 다소 떨어졌다. 최소양압력은 안양(약 41%)을 제외하면 대개 10% 이내의 값을 보였다. 기초지반이 연암이고 계측 이전에 영구배수시설이 설치된 강릉 현장의 양압력의 최대값은 약 14%, 최소값은 약 3.5% 정도로 다른 현장에 비해서 양압력의 변화가 거의 없는 것으로 계측되었다. 계측결과를 토대로 볼 때, 지하수위가 지표면까지 있을 때 또는 지반조사에 의해 나타난 지하수위일 때의 조건으로 구한 정수압을 이용하여 설계할 때는 과다설계나 과소설계를 할 가능성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The present study mainly focuses on the inelastic stress analysis of the 1/4 scale prestressed concrete containment vessel model(PCCV) under internal pressure and evaluates not only failure mode but also ultimate pressure capacity of the PCCV. Inelastic analysis is carried out 2D axisymmertic FE model and 3D FE model using four concrete material models which are Drucker-Prager Model, Chen-Chen Model, Damaged Plasticity Model and Menetrey-Willam Model. The uplift phenomenon of the basemat is considered in the 2D axisymmetric FE models. It is found from the 2D axisymmetric analysis results that both of Drucker-Prager model and Damaged Plasticity Model have a good performance and the uplift of the basemat is too small to influence on the global behavior of the PCCV. The FE analysis results on the ultimate pressure and failure mode have a good agreement with experimental results.
