초록

불포화토를 대상으로 $K_0$ 압밀조건에서 삼축시험을 수행하여 전단강도를 분석하였다. 불포화 삼축압축시험에서는 대구지역에 있는 풍화토 시료를 성형하여 다양한 모관흡수력을 조절하였다. 건조 및 습윤 시 함수특성시험을 수행하여 실험치들을 van Genuchten 곡선으로 모델하였다. 함수특성곡선으로부터 모관흡수력이 유효응력에 기여하는 성분을 평가할 수 있다. 이로부터 유효응력을 산정하였으며 유효응력에 따른 전단강도를 결정하였다. 다양한 모관흡수력에 따른 전단강도는 유효응력으로 기술하였을 때, 유일한 직선으로 나타나며 포화토의 파괴포락선과 일치함을 알 수 있었다.

The shear strength of weathered granite soils under unsaturated condition was evaluated by $K_0$ consolidated triaxial tests. Various matric suctions in the unsaturated triaxial tests were applied using suction-controlled triaxial test apparatus for weathered granite soils obtained in Daegu. Soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) laboratory tests for drying and wetting procedure were performed and van Genuchten curves were fitted by experimental results. The contribution of matric suction in unsaturated soils is directly correlated to effective stress and evaluated from SWCCs. The effective stresses were estimated from these SWCCs and the relationship between effective stress and unsaturated shear strength was determined. In the effective stress description, the unsaturated shear strength with respect to various suctions indicates unique relationship and almost the same as that of the saturated envelope.
