Abstract

Construction of a tunnel induces rock masses damage around the tunnel. The degree of damage produced on rock masses will affect on the mechanical and hydraulic behaviors of the rock masses. In this paper, P wave velocity measured by cross-hole test was used to assess rock masses damage around the test tunnel. Initiation of source signal was carried out using mechanical impact at the source installed borehole. In consequence, the generated P wave signal was low noise and apparent wave form, which allows accurate pick-up of first arrival time. From the test, the region where rock damage is expected shows relatively low P wave velocity. In addition, with multiple points of P wave velocity measurement along each cross-hole, two dimensional P wave tomography was obtained. The tomography provides apparent view of the rock damage behind the tunnel. The measured P wave velocity was correlated with features of rock masses, porosity and Q value.

터널의 시공은 항상 주변 암반의 손상을 초래한다. 발생하는 손상의 정도는 주변암반의 역학적 및 수리학적 거동에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 크로스홀 시험을 통하여 P 파 속도를 측정하여 터널주변 암반의 손상을 계측하였다. 발진공에서의 탄성파 신호발생을 위하여 기계적인 충격을 가하였으며 그 결과로 발생된 P파 신호는 잡음이 적으며 파의 초동 도달시간 판별이 용이하였다. 실험결과 암반의 손상이 예상되는 구간에서 P 파의 속도가 낮게 검측 되었다. 크로스홀 공 내 다중의 지점에서 P 파 계측을 수행하여 이차원 P 파 토모그래피를 생성하였는데, 생성된 토모그래피는 터널 배면의 암반 손상이 발생한 구간에 대한 가시적인 결과를 나타내었다. 측정된 P파의 속도로부터 간극율 또는 Q 값과의 상관관계를 통해 암반 특성의 정량적인 손상 평가가 가능하였다.
