홍콩 HMRT(Hongkong Mass Railway Tunnel) 지하철 공사현장에서는 터널굴착시 나타난 고경사절리로 인해 상당한 여굴이 발생하였다. 이에 대한 원인을 규명하기 위하여 각 터널별로 발생한 여굴의 양과 위치 등을 조사하고 이를 입찰설계단계에서 이루어진 시추공조사와 굴착단계에서의 막장검측에 의한 지질조건과 서로 비교, 분석하였다. 터널굴착에서 발생하는 여굴은 막장의 고경사 절리의 분포와 방향에 의해 영향을 받았으며, 암반조건 RQD, Q'와도 밀접한 관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 현장의 분석에 따르면 터널설계시 고경사절리의 존재여부 및 분포, 방향성 등을 면밀히 조사하고 해석하여 사전에 여굴의 발생 가능성을 확인하는 것이 필요하다.

암반은 여러 가지 지질학적 요인들에 의해 형성된 수많은 절리면들을 경계로 하는 다양한 크기와 형상의 암석블럭들이 맞물려 평행상태를 이루고 있는 불연속체이다. 불연속 암반의 거동은 암석블럭을 이루는 무결암의 역학적 특성뿐만 아니라 암석블럭의 경계를 이루는 절리면들의 공간적 분포특성과 역학적 특성에도 큰 영향을 받는다. 불연속 암반의 거동해석을 목적으로 개발되고 있는 최근의 수치해석 기법들도 대부분 절리면의 영향을 효과적으로 해석에 반영시킬 수 있는 방법을 찾는데 집중하고 있다.(중략)

터널 발파시 발파효율은 암반의 특성에 큰 영향을 받기 때문에 암반 특성을 분석하고 이를 기초로 발파설계를 수행하는 것이 중요하다. 그럼에도 불구하고 현재까지 국내에서의 발파설계는 무결암의 단축압축강도만으로 발파암을 분류한 후 각 발파암의 발파계수를 구하는 방법을 이용하거나 공학적 암반분류법의 하나인 RMR 분류를 이용하여 발파암을 분류하되 객관적 근거가 미약한 경험적인 발파계수를 산정 하는 방식을 통하여 이루어졌다. 본 연구에서는 절리특성을 고려한 발파설계를 위하여 Ashby의 접근법을 활용하였다. 또한 절리조사 결과를 통한 발파암 분류방법과 발파패턴설계를 추가하여 발파설계 전 과정을 수행할 수 있도록 Ashby의 접근법을 응용하였다. 따라서 절리 분포 특성을 고려한 발파암 분류가 가능하고, 절리암반 특성을 고려한 발파설계를 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

If the groundwater in rock joint is changed into ice, it induces the stress increment by volume increase. Also, if the ice is changed into groundwater again, the stress in joint decreases by volume decrease. The accumulated displacement and fatigues of joints are increased by the stress-hysterisis, induced from the continuous frost-thawing. Also the shear strength is decreased by them continuously. The stress-hysterisis is affected by the atmospheric temperature changes, whose behavior is visco-elasticity, usually. Therefore, Kelvin model could be used to analyze the frost-thawing behavior in winter. The measured data of total 5 points are examined, which are composed of 3 points of shallow joints and 2 points of deep joints. Because shallow weathered rocks have many joints, a lot of Kelvin model are connected and the behaviors are complicated. In case of deep joints, simple Kelvin model is applied and the behaviors are also simple.

절리가 발달된 경암질 암반내에서 터널을 굴착할 때에 발생하는 심각한 문제중의 하나는 암반내에 존재하는 불연속면과 굴착에 의하여 형성되는 자유면에 의하여 생성된 블록의 낙반 사고이다. R.E. Goodman, Gen-hua shi$^{3)}$ 등에 의하여 제안된 블록이론은 암반사면이나 지하공동에 존재하는 절리들의 방향성을 조사하여 우세한 방향의 절리들에 의하여 발생하는 블록들의 안정, 불안정 및 낙반의 가능성 여부를 판정할 수 있도록 하였다. (중략)

Many mechanical defects originated from various geological causes make rock mass exhibit anisotropic characteristics. Understanding how the stress distribution occurs in anisotropic rock mass is, therefore, very important for the design of footings on rock and rock structures. In this study, the patterns of elastic stress distribution, developed by acting line load on the surface, in transversely isotropic was investigated. The influence of joint stiffness, joint spacing, and dip angle on the stress distribution was examined. By assuming the Mohr-Coulomb criterion as joint slip condition, the development of joint slip zone was also discussed.

Numerical analysis of the progressive failure of a rock slope was conducted using a 3-D rock joint element considering fracture mechanics and subcritical crack growth of asperities in the rock joints. Even though the stress state in the rock slope is not changing, the elapse of time causes subcritical crack growth to break asperities in the joints. The increase of broken asperities causes failure of joints in the rock slope and the increase of failed joints results in failure of a jointed rock slope. As a result, the progressive failure of a jointed rock slope due to the gradual breaking of small asperities along joints generated by subcritical crack growth occurs at a lower stress than if rock failure occurred by exceeding the static strength or fracture toughness.

Rock joint survey consists of measurement of orientation and face mapping for trace informations. We have developed a new alternative approach called rock joint survey system by stereophotogrammetry and image processing to replace the conventional manual method. For the measurement of orientations and face mapping, we applied a stereophotogrammetry and developed two hybrid approaches using image processing techniques, respectively. These methods have advantages in making it possible to measure the orientations of joints and perform face mapping rapidly and objectively in unaccessible and dangerous areas.

This paper investigates the caharactheristics of the earth pressure magnigue and distribution in jointed rockmass for a safe and economic design and construction of earth retaining structures installed in rock stratum. For this purpose, this study will first investigate the limitations and problems of the existing earth pressure studies and then to overcome them th study will conduct the discontinuum numerical parametric studies based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM), which can consider the joint characteristics in rock stratum. The controlled parameters include rock type and joint conditions (joint shear strength and joint angle), and the magnitude and distribution characteristics of earth pressure have been investigated considering the interactions between the ground and the retaining structures. In addition, the comparison between the earth pressures induced in rock stratum and Peck's earth pressure for soil ground has been carried out. From the comparison, it is found that the earth pressure magnitude and distribution in jointed rockmass has been highly affected by rock type and joint condition and has shown different characteristics compared with the Peck's empirical earth pressure. This result would hereafter be utilized as an important information and a useful data for the assessment of earth pressure for designing a retaining structures installed in jointed rockmass.

Embedded joints in the rock mass are a major constituent influencing its mechanical behavior. Numerical analysis requires a rigorous modeling methodology for the rock mass with detailed information regarding joint properties, orientation, spacing, and persistence. This paper provides a mechanical model for a jointed rock mass based on the implicit joint-continuum approach. Stiffness tensors for rock mass are evaluated for an assemblage of intact rock separated by sets of joint planes. It is a linear summation of compliance of each joint sets and intact rock in the serial stiffness system. In the application example, kinematic analysis for a planar failure of rock slope is comparable with empirical daylight envelope and its lateral limits. Since the developed implicit joint-continuity model is formulated on a continuum basis, it will be a major tool for the numerical simulations adopting published plenteous thermal-hydro-chemical experimental results.
