Abstract

Offshore pile foundations are prone to lateral soil pressures resulting from embankment construction for the reclamation on deepwater soft clay. Since the 1990s, offshore reclamation has actively progressed in Korea, connecting with the development of Songdo newtown, Incheon newport, and Busan newport representatively. Special attention has been given to lateral soil-structure interaction problems related to passively-loaded offshore pile foundations. Based on a plane strain large deformation finite element (LDFE) approach, this paper presents the results of investigation into undrained (short-term) and drained (long-term) behavior of passively-loaded offshore pile foundations. This study examines the effects of major factors, such as soil profile, pile head boundary condition, magnitude of embankment load, and average degree of consolidation. The results allowed quantification of differences in the magnitude of lateral soil pressure acting on the piles between undrained and drained phases.

1990년대 이후로 인천과 부산신항 등의 물류중심항구 및 송도 신도시와 같은 유비쿼터스 도시 개발에 발맞추어 인근해상연약지반 매립공사가 활발히 진행되면서 측방유동 해상말뚝기초의 거동특성에 폭넓은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 측방유동 말뚝기초 거동에 대한 연구 및 규명은 원심모형기 개발과 컴퓨터 기능의 향상으로 인하여 폭넓은 시도가 이루어져 왔으며, 특히 말뚝구조물에 작용하는 측방유동압의 특성이 가장 중요한 초점이 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대변형 압밀연계 유한요소해석 기법(LDFE)을 바탕으로 배수조건(비배수 : 단기, 배수 : 장기)에 따른 측방유동 해상 말뚝기초의 거동특성을 분석하였으며 특히, 말뚝-지반 상호작용을 고려한 측방유동압에 중점을 두었다. 본 수치해석에서는 지층조건, 말뚝두부의 경계조건, 성토하중 크기, 평균압밀도 네 가지 중요변수에 따른 거동양상을 비교 분석하였으며, 이로부터 비배수 단계와 배수 단계에서의 측방유동압의 분포형태와 크기에 대한 정량적인 차이를 확인하였다.
