Abstract

When an embankment is constructed on soft clay ground, the lateral displacement generally called as lateral flow is generated in the foundation ground. It strongly affects stabilities of structures, such as foundation piles and underground pipes, in and on the foundation ground. The lateral earth pressure induced by the lateral flow is influenced by the magnitude and construction speed of embankment, the geometric conditions and geotechnical characteristics of the embankment, and the foundation ground, and so on. Accurate methods for estimating the lateral earth pressure have not ever been established because the lateral flow of a foundation ground shows very complicated behavior, which is caused by the interaction of shear deformation and volumetric deformation. In this paper, a series of model tests were carried out in order to clarify effects of construction speed of an embankment on the lateral earth pressure in a foundation ground were design. It was found that the magnitude and the distribution of the lateral earth pressure and its change with time are dependent on the construction speed of the embankment. It was found that a mechanism for the lateral earth pressure was generated by excess pore water pressure due to negative dilatancy induced by shear deformation under the different conditions of construction speeds of embankments.

연약점토지반에 성토 등의 상재하중을 재하하게 되면 측방유동이라고 하는 측방변위가 발생하게 된다. 이 측방유동은 파일기초의 변형, 교대의 이동, 지중매설관의 파괴 등 성토에 인접한 지중구조물에 피해를 가하게 된다. 그렇지만, 측방유동은 체적변형과 전단변형도 동시에 발생할 뿐만 아니라 이 측방유동에 영향을 미치는 인자가 많기 때문에 측방유동에 의해서 발생하는 측방토압의 발생 메커니즘이 아직 명확히 밝혀지지 않았다. 그리고 최근 근접시공 등 기존구조물에 근접해서 공사가 진행되는 경우가 많아 이러한 근접구조물에 어떠한 피해를 가할 것인가 또는 대책공법을 설계하기 위한 설계하중으로서 측방토압을 구해야 하는 필요성이 커지고 있는 것 또한 현실이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 성토에 의해서 연약지반에 발생하는 측방토압에 미치는 재하속도의 영향을 조사하기 위해서 실내모형실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 측방토압이 삼각형 분포를 이룬다는 것과 재하속도가 빠를수록 측방토압의 최대치가 커지고 부등침하가 커진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 이러한 재하속도의 영향은 부의 dilatancy에 의한 과잉간극수압의 발생에 기인한다는 것을 알았다.
