Abstract

In this study, the influence of progressive consolidation from the drainage boundary on the subsequent process of consolidation was investigated. Analytical theory and numerical program f3r consolidation of clayey soil were developed based on finite difference method, in which spatial variation of permeability and volume compressibility were implemented. And model ground with normally consolidated clayey soils and a vertical drain at its center were simulated. Various types of soils with different relations between coefficient of volume compressibility and permeability and void ratio were applied. Also numerical simulations based on the properties of the normally consolidated clay at Nakdong River basin and reconstituted kaolinite soil were performed to recognize its practical impact. Consequently, it is found out that retardation of consolidation induced by progressive consolidation is very important to understand consolidation behavior on field conditions and its effect is remarkable at the initial state of consolidation, and increases with plasticity index and applied load.

본 연구에서는 배수면으로부터의 거리에 따라 점진적으로 진행되는 압밀이 차후의 압밀 거동에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 이를 위해 압밀진행에 따른 위치 별 투수계수 및 부피압축계수의 변화를 고려할 수 있는 유한차분 압밀해석기법 및 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 해석 프로그램을 이용하여 간극비 변화에 따른 투수계수와 부피압축 켸수의 변화 정도가 다른 다양한 특성의 지반에 대하여 연직배수재가 설치된 모형지반의 압밀거동을 분석하였다. 또한 실제 지반조건에서의 영향 정도를 살펴보기 위하여, 낙동강 하구의 정규압밀 점성토 및 재성형 카올리나이트의 지반 특성을 근간으로 입력치를 결정, 해석을 수행하여 위치 별 점진적 압밀에 의한 영향을 분석하였다. 해석 결과 점진적 압밀 진행에 따른 압밀 지체가 현장의 압밀 거동 이해에 매우 중요하며, 또한 압밀 초기에, 소성성이 크고, 재하하중이 클수록 현저하게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.
