Abstract

Urban railway lines have been constructed adjacent to residential buildings and urban areas. The expansion of transportation networks and reconstruction of residential buildings in highly populated urban areas require deep excavations in areas adjacent to urban railways. Mobilized soil stresses and changes in the groundwater level induced by deep excavations results in track irregularities in urban railways. In this study, a three-dimensional finite difference model using the commercial program FLAC3D was adopted to estimate the horizontal displacements of earth retaining structures, settlements of backfill, the stability of track irregularity and underground box structure based on the criteria of each railway organization and its relationships. In deep excavations, a change in groundwater level induces relatively very small differences for track gauge irregularities, whereas relatively large differences for longitudinal irregularities of 72.5%, twist irregularities of 83.3%, cross level irregularities of 61.9%, and alignments of 43.3% were found to be the maximum differences when the horizontal displacement of earth retaining wall and settlement of backfill were 65.1% and 21.4%, respectively, because the groundwater level (GWL) on the ground surface-mobilized tensile strength of the underground box structure exceeds the allowable value. Therefore, three-dimensional numerical analysis was performed in this study. Overall, real-time monitoring should be carried out to prevent railway accidents in advance when a deep excavation adjacent to urban railway structures is constructed.

국내 도시철도 노선은 이용자의 접근을 편리하게 하기 위하여 주거단지 및 도심지 인근 지역에 시공되는 사례가 많다. 도시 인구 증가로 인하여 교통망 확충과 재건축 등이 지속적으로 이루어짐에 따라 도시철도 인접 지역 굴착이 불가피하며 굴착 시 발생하는 지반 응력 및 지하수위 변화는 도시철도 궤도틀림을 유발한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 삼차원 유한차분 해석 상용프로그램 FLAC3D를 이용하여 도시철도 인접지반 대규모 굴착 시 지하수위에 따른 굴착 부 벽체 수평변위 및 배면지반의 침하와 궤도틀림량 산정 후 이들의 상관관계를 분석하고 궤도틀림 및 지하 박스구조물 안정성 평가를 실시하였다. 그 결과 깊은 굴착 시 지하수위에 따른 궤간틀림은 매우 미소하게 발생하였으나 줄틀림 72.5%, 수평틀림 83.3%, 면틀림 61.9%, 평면성틀림 43.3%로서 상대적으로 큰 차이가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 흙막이 벽체의 최대 수평 변위 및 벽체 배면 침하 차는 각각 65.1%, 21.4%가 발생하는 것으로 나타났으며 지하수위가 지표면에 위치한 경우 지하 박스구조물의 인장 응력이 허용 기준을 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 도시철도 구조물에 인접하여 깊은 굴착이 시공된 경우 궤도틀림으로 인한 사고를 미연에 방지하기 위해 본 연구에서 수행한 삼차원 수치해석과 실시간 모니터링을 실시하는 것이 바람직하다.
