Abstract

Recently, deformation of operating railway structures has occurred due to adjacent excavation works such as new structures and utility tunnel expansion concentrated around downtown areas. However, most of them are focused on structural review, repair and reinforcement of structures. A review of the Track is insufficient. In particular, in the case of the gravel track on the earthwork subgrade, the subgrade and the ballast are not solidified. A slight level of deformation can cause ballast relaxation. Sleeper support conditions may lead to unstable conditions. Sufficient safety must be ensured. In addition, it is a track type with a high risk of train derailment due to unstable support conditions. In this study, the correlation between the deformation characteristics of gravel tracks and track support performance according to subgrade deformation is experimentally and analytically verified. In addition, an evaluation technique that can evaluate the condition of the gravel track and the track support stiffness is presented.

최근 도심지 주변으로 집중되는 신축구조물 및 공동구 확장 등과 같은 인접굴착공사로 인해 운영중인 철도 구조물의 변형이 발생되고 있다. 그러나 대부분 구조물에 대한 구조검토 및 보수보강에 집중되고 있으며 궤도에 대한 검토는 부족한 실정이다. 특히 토공노반 상 자갈궤도의 경우 노반과 도상자갈이 강결된 구조가 아니므로, 미소한 수준의 변형으로도 도상자갈 이완현상이 발생할 수 있다. 이는 침목 지지조건이 불안정한 조건으로 유도될 수 있으므로 충분한 안전성을 확보해야한다. 또한 불안정한 지지조건으로 열차탈선의 위험이 매우 높은 궤도형식이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 노반 변형에 따른 자갈궤도의 변형특성과 궤도지지성능의 상관관계를 실험 및 해석적으로 입증하고, 자갈궤도의 상태 및 궤도지지강성을 평가할 수 있는 평가기법을 제시하고자 한다.
