Abstract

This paper described the analysis result on heaving of soft ground with DCM column type, based on the results of laboratory model tests on the soft ground with DCM column. The heave characteristics of the soft ground were evaluated according to the application of DCM column in soft ground. The results showed that the heaving of soft ground without DCM column occurred rapidly when the lateral deformation of soft ground increased significantly under the 4th load step condition. In addition, the heaving of soft ground in final load step caused tensile failure of the ground surface. The maximum heaving of the soft ground with the DCM column occurred in the final load step, and the heaving quantity decreased in the order of pile, wall, and grid type. Especially, the soft ground with DCM of grid type effectively resisted ground heaving, even if it was extremely failure in the bottom ground of embankment. The results of the maximum heaving according to the measurement point showed that the heaving of the soft ground with DCM of grid type was 3.1% and 1.6% compared to that of the pile and wall type at the location of LVDT-1, and the heaving of the LVDT-2 position was 1.0% and 2.1%, respectively.

본 연구에서는 DCM으로 개량된 연약점토지반에 관한 실내모형실험 결과를 바탕으로, DCM 개량 형식에 따른 연약점토지반의 융기량을 분석하였다. 즉, 무보강 및 3종류의 DCM 개량 형식에 대한 하중 재하에 따른 연약지반의 융기 특성을 평가하였다. DCM이 적용되지 않은 경우에는 4단계 하중조건에서부터 연약점토지반의 측방변형이 크게 증가하면서 미성토구간의 융기가 급격하게 발생하였다. 그리고 최종 하중단계에서의 융기량은 지표면의 인장파괴가 발생되었다. DCM 개량 형식에 따른 지반의 최대 융기량은 최종 하중단계에서 발생하였으며, 융기량의 크기는 말뚝식, 벽식 및 격자식 순으로 감소하였다. 특히, 격자식 개량체가 적용된 경우에는 최종 하중단계에서 재하부 지반의 극단적 파괴에도 불구하고, 지반 융기에 대한 억지효과가 매우 크게 나타났다. 또한 계측위치별 최대 융기량을 분석한 결과, LVDT-1의 위치에서 격자식은 말뚝식과 벽식에 비하여 각각 3.1% 및 1.6% 수준의 융기량을 보였고, LVDT-2의 위치에서는 각각 1.0% 및 2.1%의 융기가 발생하였다.
