Abstract

The existing equations for radial consolidation cannot account for the changes of well resistance with time and cannot predict the appropriate in-situ consolidation curve. In this study, small cylinder cell tests are performed to evaluate the discharge capacity of PVD. Also, a block sample of 1.2 m in diameter and 2.0 m in height was consolidated to observe the change in the drainage capacity with time for three types of PVD. From the test results on a block sample, the drainage curves normalized with initial drainage of each PVD are similar, regardless of the PVD type and the consolidation curve, which is predicted using solutions of radial consolidation based on the discharge capacity measured in a small cylinder cell tests, significantly overestimates the degree of consolidation. The term of well resistance in the radial consolidation solution was back-calculated to fit the consolidation curve of a large block sample and it is defined as the time dependent well resistance factor, L(t). The L(t) was found to be linearly proportional to the dimensionless time factor, Th. It was also shown that the consolidation curve evaluated by using L(t) provides more accurate prediction than the existing solution.

실내시험에서 측정된 배수재의 통수능과 실제 현장에서 나타나는 배수거동은 근본적으로 다름에도 불구하고 기존의 많은 연구들은 실내시험을 통해 획득한 통수능 값을 이용하여 압밀 곡선을 예측하고 있다. 또한 기존의 압밀해는 압밀 진행에 따른 교란효과와 배수저항의 변화를 고려할 수 없어 실제 압밀거동과 잘 일치하지 않는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장에서 채취한 대형 블록시료에 연직배수재를 설치하고 압밀을 진행하면서 시간에 따른 침하량을 측정하였다. 이를 이용하여 시간에 따라 증가되는 배수 저항계수를 시간 의존적 함수로 정의하고 기존의 방사방향 압밀 해에 도입하여 수정된 방사방향 압밀 예측 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법으로 예측한 결과를 실측 데이터 및 기존 제안식과 비교한 결과, 제안된 방법이 실측치에 가장 근접한 방사방향 압밀 곡선을 예측하는 것으로 관찰되었다.
