The use of Compaction Grouting evolved in 1950's to correct structural settlement of buildings. Over the almost 50 years, the technology has been developed and is currently used in wide range of applications. Compaction Grouting, the injection of a very stiff, 'zero-slump' mortar grout under relatively high pressure, displaces and compacts soils. It can effectively repair natural or man-made soil strength deficiencies in variety of soil formations. Major applications of Compaction Grouting include densifying loose soils or fill voids caused by sinkholes, poorly compacted fills, broken utilities, improper dewatering, or soft ground tunneling excavation. Other applications include preventing liquefation, re-leveling settled structures, and using compaction grout bulbs as structural elements of minipiles or underpinning. In this paper, on the basis of the case history constructed in this year, a study has been performed to analyze the basic mechanism of the Compaction Grouting. Also, the effectiveness of the ground improvement and the bearing capacity of the Compaction Pile has been verified by the Cone Penetration Test(CPT) and Load Test. Relatively uniform Compaction grouting column could be maintained by planning the Quality Control in the course of grouting. And, the Quality Control Plan has been conceived using grout pressure, volume of grout and drilling depth.

The permeability of converter slag, replacing material of sand mat on improving soft clay foundation, was evaluated in the laboratory. The effects of grain size, flow water time and aging were investigated using sea and fresh water. Converter slag being submerged with fresh water, the coefficients of permeability in A and B samples less than 10mm grain sizes were measured as 6.52${\times}$10$\^$-2/cm/sec and 5,99${\times}$10$\^$-1/cm/sec, while changed as 1,88${\times}$10$\^$-2/cm/sec, 3.86${\times}$10$\^$-1/cm/sec under sea water condition. Also, the condition of turbulent flow may exit and was experimentally identified from the relationship between hydraulic gradient and seepage velocity. After 180 days on using sea water, the coefficients of permeability of sample A and B samples decreased ten times smaller than those initial values. And after that time continually decreased as for till 360 days. The reduction of permeability coefficient was considered to influence filled with voids in high-calcium quicklime(CaO). However, in-situ coefficient of permeability was practically satisfactory.

Sand drain as a vertical drainage is widely used in soft ground improvement Recently, sand, the principal source of sand drain, is running out. The laboratory model tests were carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. Though which the characteristics of gravel are compared to those of sand for engineering purpose. Two cylindrical containers for the model test were filled with marine clayey soil from the west coast of Korea with a column in the center, one with sand, the other with gravel. Vibrating wire type piezometers were installed at the distance of 1.0D, 1.5D and 2.0D from the center of the column. The characteristics of consolidation were studied with data obtained from the measuring instrument place on the surface of the container. The parameter study was performed on the marine clayey soil before and after the test in order to verify the effectiveness of the improvement. The clogging effect was checked at various depth in gravel column after the test. In-situ tests area was divided into two areas by material used. One is Sand Drain(SD) and Sand Compaction Pile(SCP) area, the other is Gravel Drain(GD) and Gravel Compaction Pile(GCP) area. Both areas were monitored to obtain the information on settlement, pore water pressure and bearing capacity by measuring instruments for stage loading caused by embankment. The results of measurements were analyzed. According to the test results, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel pile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. It is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material. Gravel is considered to be a better material than sand for bearing capacity, and it is found that bearing capacity is larger when gravel is used as a gravel compaction pile than as a gravel drain.

본 연구의 목적은 연약지반의 압밀계수 측정에 있어 Piezocone 관입시험을 이용할 때 관입시험자체의 정확성과 시험결과들에 미치는 여러 가지 지반공학적 영향요소들을 고려하려는데 있다. 본 연구의 연구실험방법으로는, Piezocone 관입을 위한 연약모형지반 조성을 위하여 초대형 Slurry Consolidometer에 Free Stress 상태의 Slurry를 45일간 압밀시킨 후 Automatic Computer Control Calibration Chamber (LSU/CALCHAS; Louisiana State University Calibration Chamber System)에 옮긴후 다시한번 압밀시키는 Two-Stage Consolidation Method를 사용하였다 동시에 연약모형지반내에 8개의 Piezometer를 설치하여 Piezocone 관입시 유발되는 지반 내에서의 과잉간극수압의 변환을 측정하였다. 총 25개의 Piezocone 시험중 4개는 Standard 10$\textrm{cm}^2$ Piezocone이고, 나머지 21개는 Miniature Piezocone이 사용되었다. 모형지반은 여러 가지 Boundary Condition들과 Stress Condition 그리고 Stress History등을 고려하여 조성되었다. 또한 Dissipation Test직후의 압밀특성을 확인하기 위하여 0.01초당 한 개이상의 실측점을 측정할 수 있는 Digital-Oscilloscope를 이용하였다. 특히 Dissipation Test, 즉시 Piezocone의 Filter Element에 잡히지 않는 과잉간극수압의 Initial Drop 존재에 관한 기존의 추측을 실제 실험치로 확인할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 콘관입속도가 콘관입시험 결과에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위하여 LSU/CALCHAS(Louisiana State University Calibration Chamber System)를 이용한 미니 Piezocone의 관입시험이 수행되었으며 그 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 10회의 미니 Piezocone 관입시험이 Ko 조건에서 수행되었으며 33% kaolin, 67% sand mixture가 시료로 사용되었고, 콘관입속도 0.3, 0.6cm/sec, U1(filter element at the cone tip), U2(filter element above the cone base), OCR=1, 10 의 조건이 다양하게 적용되었다. 시험결과 Cone Resistance, Excess Pore Water Pressure, Sleeve Friction 은 U1, U2 두 종류의 콘에 대해서 모두 관입속도가 커짐에 따라 증가하였으나 OCR의 증가에 따라서는 감소하였으며 U1의 Excess Pore Water Pressure가 U2 경우보다 크게 측정되었다.

SHANSEP method involves the consolidation to stresses in excess of the preconsolidation pressure in order to overcome sample disturbance effect. The concept of SHANSEP is based on an approach to laboratory test which attempts to reproduce the in-situ conditions more closely than is possible in routine tests and evaluates normalized strength parameters for the soil as a function of OCR. But SHANSEP method can be applied only to fairly uniform clay deposits, and is unsuitable for a random deposit. In this study, CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test and incremental loading consolidation test were performed for the application of SHANSEP method on Yangsan clay. During the K/sub o/-consolidation, triaxial specimens were consolidated to stress equal to two times the in-situ vertical effective stress. And for overconsolidated condition, the specimens were swelled to a known vertical effective stress in order to have the desired OCR. With the results of CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test using the block samples, the relationship between c/sub u//σ/sub vc/' and OCR on Yangsan clay was established. For evaluating the undrained shear strength of Yangsan clay with depth, CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test was performed using the piston samples taken from Yangsan site. And also undrained shear strength was analyzed from the in-situ test such as Cone Penetration Test(CPT), Dilatometer Test(DMT), and Field Vane Test(FVT) and was compared with that of CK/sub o/U triaxial compression test.

In this paper, comparison of the observed and the predicted ground deformations due to the construction of road embankment with peck drain near the construction site was made. Measurement of the ground deformation at the gasoline stand due to the construction of road embankment was made and it was compared with the predicted deformation results of Finite Element Method analysis made with Elasto-plastic and Elastic visco-plastic models. A well agreement was obtained between the measured and predicted ground deformations.
