The factors affecting the vertical loads acting on embankment piles can be classified into two factors on pile and soil. Factor on pile is the space between pile cap and factors on soil are embankment height and soil parameters(c, $\phi$). Therefore, a series of model tests were performed both to investigate the extent of influence of these factors and to verify the reliability of the proposed theoretical analysis. In the model tests, the piles were installed in the 6 columns $\times$ 6 rows(or 5 columns $\times$ 5 rows) below the embankment and the isolated pile caps with the area of 2.5cm $\times$ 2.5cm were installed on each pile head. The portion of the embankment load carried by model pile caps decreases with increment of the space between pile caps and increases with increment of the embankment height and the relative density(or internal friction angle) of fill. Also, the experimental results showed good agreement with theoretical predictions.

This paper presents the characteristics of internal erosion of embankment slopes due to the localized heavy rain. In this study, the existing analysis methods of filter performance in embankment materials were reviewed. Based on the theoretical concept of filter conditions to prevent particles from being carried in from the adjacent embankment materials, new analysis method was suggested. According to the new analysis method for filter performance, experimental programs were carried out to investigate the filter performance for controlling and sealing any leak which develops through the embankment materials as a result of internal erosion. Three sets of small scale laboratory tests were carried out with changing the main influence factors such as rainfall intensity, gradient of slope, embankment material condition. It was found that the new analysis method for filter performance to prevent particles from being carried in from the adjacent embankment materials was more capable approach to design the filter materials in embankment slopes. The new criterion or method for satisfactory filter performance, therefore, was recommended.

In this study, we constructed the test embankment with four kinds of sections(2 kinds of bottom ash; tire shred-bottom ash mixture, weathered soil) in field and had been monitoring the behaviour of the test embankment and change of ground water quality for 1 year. In the geotechnical aspects, there was no relative difference of deformation in 4 test materials section and we could not see the possibility of the strength-reduction of coal ash materials by freezing inside of the embankment. In addition, no settlement was observed in the test sections because the base soil of the test sections was rigid enough that no consolidation was occurred. In the examination of water quality, all of the heavy metals and negative ions were detected below the drinking water standards except for sulfate($SO_4^{2-}$). In the beginning of measurement, higher concentrations of sulfate from 4 test sections were detected than drinking water standard for 20 days after beginning of the test but the concentrations decreased below the drinking water standard after 50 days after the tests.

Theoretical analysis are developed to estimate the load transfer by soil arching in geosynthetic-reinforced and pile-supported(GRPS) embankment systems. According to the results of analyses, the efficiency of embankment pile systems increases when the geosynthetics are installed with piles. Especially the increment of efficiency is more remarkable in the low embankment height, where soil arching can not be fully developed. The factors affecting the load transfer in GRPS embankment systems are the pile spacing, the height and properties of embankments, and the strength of geosynthetics. The efficiency decreases with increasing the pile spacing, while it increases with the height and internal friction angle of embankment fills, and the strength of geosynthetics. These results of analyses show the proposed analysis method is resonable to estimate the soil arching in GRPS embankment systems.

스치로폴은 발포폴리스티렌(EPS : Expanded Poly-Styrene)을 말하며, 이것은 스티렌모노머(Stone Monomer)를 중합하여 만든 플리스티렌과 여기에 첨가한 발포제가 주원료로 되어 있다. 폴리스티렌은 1930년대에 미국과 독일에서 공업화되었고 스치로폴은 1943년 초에 미국에서 공업화가 이루어져 건물의 단열재, 물품포장재 등으로 이용되어 왔다. 1972년에는 노르웨이에서 연약지반상 교량의 접속도로 보수공사에 처음 스치로폴 성토공법이 이용되어 교대의 측방유동 방지대책으로 성공을 거둠에 따라 연약지반상의 경량성 토재 및 토압을 받는 옹벽, 교대 등 구조물의 경량 뒷채움재로서 각광을 받게 되었다. 한편 우리나라에서는 1994. 6월에 한국지반 공학회 주최로 개최된 "발포폴리스티렌(EPS) 이용 성토공법 국제심포지엄"에서 양산-구포간 고속도로성토(L=70m) 및 서해안고속도로의 교대 뒷채움에 스치로폴 경량성토재가 이용된 문헌이 발표된 바 있으며, 시중에서 단열재용으로 판매되고 있는 스티로폴 평판의 규격은 표 1과 같다. 스치로폴은 그 가격이 비싼 편이지만 단위중량(20-40kgf/m$^3$)이 흑의 50/1-100/1 밖에 안되는 초경량재로서 강도, 내구성 및 시공성이 우수한 성토용 신재료이기 때문에 연약지반상에서 구조물 시공시 지반의 과대한 침하, 측방유동 및 사면활동 등이 생길 경우 도로성 토재 또는 교대, 옹벽 등 구조물의 뒷채움재로서 스치로폴을 사용하면 이를 방지할 수 있으므로 매우 효과적인 토목자재라 할 수 있다. 따라서 본고에서는 지금까지의 연구결과, 시험시공 및 시공실적 등을 토대로 발표된 참고문헌을 중심으로 연약지반상 스치로폴 성토공법의 설계방법에 대하여 간단히 소개하고자 한다. 소개하고자 한다.

A high rock embankment by means of phased dynamic compaction has hardly carried out in Korea. Settlement of each layer is measured in order to verify the settlement behavior of dynamically compacted high rock embankment. A high rock embankment is generally constructed by dividing into several sub-embankments. Such a sub-embankment and dynamic compaction may induce an increase of pressure at the lower part of embankment and cause a different behavior of ground from initial status. In this study, settlement of a high rock embankment is estimated using a hyperbolic model taking into construction history. The results from prediction are compared with those obtained from field measurements. And second creep settlement is predicted using pre-loading test.

In conventional stability analysis of embankment on soft clay ground, an averaged undrained shear strength$(s_u)$ for the depth of clay layer is usually used. Also, all applied load is assumed to an immediate load for simplicity of analysis. The load in the field, however, increases gradually. Undrained shear strength increases during loading due to consolidation of clay ground. In this study, the stability analysis program(RSI-SLOPE) is developed. By using this program, it is possible to consider the rate of strength increase according to the elapsed time of consolidation and the depth of clay ground. And the rested duration for consolidation and gradually increased load can also be considered. Using the examples of some embankments, the critical embankment heights calculated by RSI-SLOPE program are compared with those by PCSTABL without the considerations of gradually increased load and rate of strength increase. In addition, this study contains analysis and comparison about the influence of coefficient of consolidation$(c_u)$ and drainage distance$(H_{DR})$ in the embankment design. RSI-SlOPE program may be useful for more effective and accurate embankment design.
