Abstract

Deep soft ground in mouth of Nackdong river requires to be analysed with prediction method concerning characteristics of secondary consolidation from the beginning because it causes excessive settlement due to time-dependant secondary consolidation characteristics. This study investigated characteristics of extended settlement by conducting one-dimensional theory, elasto-plastic model and visco-elasto-plastic model as well as analyzing long-term measuring data observed over 2,000 days. According to one-dimensional theory and elasto-plastic model, there is not definite correlation between height of embankment and depth of soft ground while visco-elasto-plastic model showed similar result of settlement to that of long-term measuring data. Consequently it is suggested that applying visco-elasto-plastic model to developing deep underground place as studied area on predicting extended settlement before construction prevents economic loss and delay during process by preparing secondary consolidation characteristics.

낙동강 하구 일대 대심도의 연약지반 지역은 시간 의존적인 2차압밀 특성 등의 원인으로 예측보다 실제 과다한 침하가 발생하므로 설계 시점부터 2차압밀 특성을 고려한 예측기법의 필요성이 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2,000일 이상의 장기 계측자료 분석과 1차원 이론, 탄소성, 점 탄소성의 수치해석을 수행하여 장기침하 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과 1차원 이론, 탄소성 해석 모두 성토 높이와 연약층 깊이에 따른 뚜렷한 상관관계를 찾을 수 없었으나, 점 탄소성 해석 방법은 장기계측 결과와 아주 유사하게 침하를 예측하였다. 따라서 연구 대상 지역과 같은 대심도 지역에서 장기 침하 예측 시 점 탄소성 해석을 시공 전에 적용하면 2차압밀 침하 거동 특성을 미리 예측하여 시공 중 발생할 수 있는 공기 지연과 경제적 손실을 사전에 방지할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
