Abstract

The coarse grained materials are used in various construction field such as express way back fill, Dam etc. Especially, for dam construction, a huge mount of rock fill materials are needed, so around domestic stony mountains are generally developed to produce materials. Not an accurate theory, but design criteria is based on empirical factors that were constructed in advance for design of dam especially Concrete Face Rockfill Dam(CFRD). Considering the post facts, the modified design criteria are essential in the future with more theoretical and experimental ways. In this study, large scale direct shear tests are performed with various relative density conditions on coarse grained material of Yecheon area to compare test results and general CFRD design factors.
