Abstract

The discontinuity of rock is one of important elements that have impact on the dynamic movement of rock. A slope made of gneiss has complicated geological structure because of the gneiss forming process through metamorphism covering wide range and the anisotropic structure with foliation. In this study, before cutting slope, the rock of slope had been found as a good quality by the boring test. But during construction tension cracks had occurred in the section with 170m length during large-scale excavation work with depth more than 20m. Ground surface geological investigation, boring exploration, resistivity logging and borehole image processing had been done to find the causes of the tension crack. It was possible to estimate the scale of fault existing in large area through resistivity logging and geological investigation. Large scale slickenside and fault clay had been found as the result of comprehensive analysis.

암반의 불연속면은 암반의 역학적 거동에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 편마암으로 이루어진 비탈면은 광범위한 범위에서 변성작용을 받아 형성되는 편마암생성과정과 엽리가 존재하는 이방성 구조 때문에 지질구조가 복잡하다. 본 연구대상 지역의 경우 절취공사 이전에 실시된 시추조사에서는 양호한 암반으로 조사되었으나, 약 20m 이상의 대절취공사를 수행하는 중인장균열이 약 170m 구간에 걸쳐 발생하였다. 인장균열 원인분석을 위하여 지표지질조사, 시추조사, 전기비저항탐사, 시추공영상촬영 등을 실시하였다. 전기비저항탐사와 지표지질조사를 통하여 광역에 걸친 단층대의 규모를 추정할 수 있었고, 종합분석한 결과 대규모의 단층활면 및 단층점토가 발견되었다.
