The influence of round length on the tunnel stability and construction cost is well acknowledged by many researchers and engineers but the coherent procedure is not available for its determination. In this study, the behaviour modes of the face and unsupported span was investigated for weak rock tunnel by a small scale model test, PFC3D and FDM analyses in consideration of the round length. Total five types of behaviour modes are defined and quantitative estimation of the behaviour modes was established in terms of the safety factor for the face stability and the conditional chart. Although the proposed method has some restrictions, this method can provide useful information for the optimization of the round length and excavation, especially in design stage.

Although the round length for tunnel excavation has a major technical and economical impact in conventional tunnelling, there is no coherent procedure available for its determination. In this study, the influence of round length on the behaviour modes of weak rock tunnel was investigated by numerical analyses. Quantitative estimation of the behaviour modes of the face and the unsupported span was established by use of the safety factor for the face stability and the conditional chart. In addition, the optimum round length in the tunnel design stage was investigated based on the detail construction information such as cycle time and material costs. Although this proposed method has some restrictions, it is expected to provide useful information for the optimization of the tunnel excavation, especially in design stage.

본고에서는 $1986.8\~1988.7$월중에 시공된 부산지하철 1호선 3단계 건설구간 중 서대신동 로타리에서 괴정국민학교 앞까지 연${\cdot}$경암지역에서의 TBM(Tunnel Boring Machine)으로 시행된 단선터널(7.0m)과 NATM으로 시행한 복선터널의 근접시공에 따른 간벽부 보강설계 내용과 근접부 시공시 계측결과 분석, 지보 Pattern조정 및 시공 실적 등을 제시하였다. 원설계 내용 분석 결과 지보 Pattern이 현장 지반조건에 비해 과다하였고 TBM 굴진시 Thrust 2500kN(본 기계 기준) 이상인 연암이상의 지반에서는 TBM 굴착으로의 효율성이 있었고, 경암구간에서 병행터널의 간섭영향을 배제하려면 터널간의 중심거리가 터널직경의 2배 이상이 되어야 하며, TBM 단선터널(7.0m)의 일 평균 굴진 길이는 4.6m로 분석되었다. 앞으로 이와 유사한 암층에서의 터널근접 시공 및 TBM 굴착시 본 분석내용이 참고가 되기를 기대하여 본고를 작성하였다.

Shield tunnel having circular section located in the soil or soft rock layer is liable to deform in such a way that its two diagonal diameters crossing each other expand and contract alternately during earthquakes. Based on this knowledge, the ground-tunnel interaction effect for this particular vibration mode is investigated. The ground surrounding a tunnel is assumed to be a homogeneous elastic medium. The bonded boundary condition on the ground-tunnel interface is considered. This suggests a firm bond between the ground and the tunnel lining. As Poisson's ratio and stiffness of the ground increases, the strain induced within the tunnel lining increases.

For quantitative evaluation of geotechnical engineering properties such as rippability and diggability, clear interpretation on the subsurface velocity structures should be preceded by figuring out top soil, weathered and soft rock layers, shape of basement, fracture zones, geologic boundary and etc. from the seismic refraction data. It is very important to set up suitable field parameters, which are the configuration of profile and its length, spacings of geophones and sources and topographic conditions, for increasing field data quality Geophone spacing of 3 to 5m is recommended in the land slope area for house land development and 5 to 10m in the tunnel site. In refraction tomography technique, the number of source points should be more than a half of available channel number of instrument, which can make topographic effect ignorable. Compared with core logging data, it is shown that the velocity range of the soil is less than 700m/s, weathered rock 700${\~}$1,200m/s, soft rock 1,200${\~}$1,800m/s. And the upper limit of P-wave velocity for rippability is estimated 1,200 to 1,800m/s in land slope area of gneiss. In case of tunnel site, it is recommended in tunnel design and construction to consider that tunnel is in contact with soft rock layer where three lineaments intersecting each other are recognized from the results of the other survey.

국내 대부분을 차지하고 있는 NATM의 주요원리는 주변지반의 지보효과를 활용하는 터널굴착공법이다. 따라서 실제 지반조건이 원설계조건 보다 역학적으로 불량한 경우 보강공법의 적용은 필수적이라 할 수 있으나, 합리적인 설계변경은 현실적으로 쉽지 않은 실정이다. 또한 현실적인 이유로 양방향으로 터널을 관통하는 설계법과 달리 종종 1방향 굴진으로 터널을 관통하는 경우가 있다. 그러나 이러한 1방향 굴진은 불가분 굴진 종점부에서 저토피 갱구를 향하게 되므로, 지반이 연약한 경ㅇ우 막장 붕괴의 위험이 매우 높은 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 터널은 설계 시 갱구부 지반을 풍화암과 연암으로 보고 설계 하였으나, 실제 굴착 시 확인된 지층은 핵석을 포함한 실트질모래(SP-SM)로 판명되었다. 더구나 터널굴진 방향에 있어서도 양방향 굴착이 아닌 저토피 갱구를 향한 1방향 굴진을 실시하였으며, 이러한 시공 중에 터널관통을 불과 19m 남겨둔 갱구부에서 막장부괴와 동시에 상부사면 함몰이 발생하였다. 본 연구는 토사터널 갱구부 1방향 굴진 시 발생한 막장붕괴 보강사례로서, 지상보강(시멘트밀크 그라우팅)과 갱내보강(방사상 FRP보강그라우팅) 그리고 인버트폐합을 실시하여 성공적으로 터널시공을 완료한 사례연구이다. 본 사례는 향후 토사터널 갱구부의 설계와 시공에 유용한 참고자료가 될 것이다.

In this study, scaled model tests were performed to investigate the deformation behaviors around twin tunnels. Eleven types of test models which had respectively different pillar widths, rock types and loading conditions were mode, where the modelling materials were the mixture of sand, plaster and water. The models with shallower pillar width were cracked under lower pressure than the models with thicker pillar width, and they showed the more tunnel convergences and the clear spatting failures. The models of hard rock were cracked under 50% higher pressure than the models of soft rock and they showed the less tunnel convergences. The failure and deformation behaviors of twin tunnels were also dependent on the loading conditions of models. Futhermore, the results of FLAC analysis were qualitatively coincident with the test results.

Final convergence of tunnel crown due to excavation have been well predicted by regression analysis which is expressed as a function of convergence curve on a time and distance dependent. In this study, the validity of the equations for shallow, wide tunnel was investigated by measurement and numerical analysis. Studied tunnel(Sansoo Tunnel) is located at the boundary of downtown and mountain park. Exponential predictions equation was better coincided with measured data than fractional equation for studied tunnel, although the ground was expected to be elasto-plastic. This is because weathered rock ground is changed elasto-plastic ground into elastic ground by multi-steel grouting and forepoling.

This paper presents the geotechnical characteristics of tunnel co \l apse based on the case studies. For domestic cases, most collapses are likely to happen along the weakest zone of shear strength due to the change of stresses induced by excavation specially when soft or weathered rock exist in front of a tunnel. In other words, the collapse of a tunnel occurs along the highly weathered fractured zone due to blasting and excavation. In Europe, collapses have been occurred by one joint group even though the ground is relatively fresh and for the rocks of which RQD is over 50%. In addition, the amount of ground water flow does not seem to be seriously affected by the RQD range.
