  • To investigate the effect of drainage spacing and smear on the rate of consolidation and the efficiency of vertical drain method, a series of consolidation tests with a large consolidation chamber and special equipment for inserting mandrels were conducted. As the smeared region increases, total settlement in over-consolidated clay increases whereas apparent change in settlement does not appear in normally consolidated clay. Vertical drain generally accelerates the rate of consolidation, while it could also deteriorate the efficiency of vertical drain method even for the decreasing drainage length and spacing ratio.

  • 본 연구는 현실에 부합하는 연약지반의 압밀거동을 예측하기 위한 연구로서, 일단 3차원 배수 조건하에서 지반의 자중 및 압축성과 투수성의 비선형적 성질이 고려된 비선형 압밀모델을 구성하였다. 또한 연직 배수재의 시공과정에서 발생할수 있는 지반의 교란현상 및 다양한 이질층의 구성, 점증적인 하중재하 조건, 연직배수재의 부분관입 조건에 대한 고려가 가능하도록 비선형 압밀모델을 수정, 보완하였다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 유한차분방법에 의한 수치해석을 실시하였고 최종적으로 각종 희귀분석과정을 도입한 3차원 비선형 압밀해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. Ska-Edeby의 시험시공 사례를 통한 개발 프로그램의 검증을 실시하였는데, 시험시공 사례의 경우, 현장에서 측정한 깊이별 침하량 및 간극수압 결과를 개발 프로그램에 의한 예측결과와 비교, 분석하였다. 또한 개발 프로그램을 이용하여 다층지반 해석과 관련된 기존 해석방법의 문제점 및 지반의 교란효과와 연직배수재의 부분관입조건, 점증적인 하중재하 조건등이 지반의 압밀거동에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보았다.

  • This paper presents the utilization of waste concrete as vertical drain material. The materials used as vertical drain material were the waste concrete, obtained from the demolished apartments or concrete structure and sand. In this study, laboratory model test was performed to investigate settlement and bearing capacity between sand compaction pile and waste concrete compaction pile. The results of laboratory model test showed that the improvement efficiency of soft ground by waste concrete compaction pile was better than sand compaction pile.

  • In this paper, an numerical approach is performed to investigate the effects of smear zone, occurred by penetrating vertical drains, on consolidation behavior of soft clay deposits. Such a numerical analysis is applied to the field condition to confirm its applicability. Parametric numerical analyses is carried out to study influencing factors such as permeability in smear zone, boundary of smear zone and discharge capacity of vertical drains on the consolidation of soil. As results of analyses, for the given conditions of soil, degree of consolidation is getting faster with increase of permeability of vertical drain. Degree of consolidation is delayed with decrease of permeability of smear zone. As the ratio of drain width to smear zone increases, the degree of consolidation decreases. Proposed values of influencing factors by previous researchers is found to be reliable from results of numerical analyses with Cam-clay model.

  • Soil properties, drain conditions and numerical analysis technique have great influence upon consolidation behavior. In relevant to the above described fact, this paper aims to examining the applicability of prediction model of consolidation as well as deformation characteristics for soft clayey foundation improved by sand drain. A case study for actual foundation of Kwangyang steel works was performed. Single drain consolidation model proposed by Hansbo and Biot's consolidation theory coupled with modified Cam-clay model developed during the research were employed for the FEM numerical analysis of the foundation. Both smear effect and drain capacity were taken into account for the analysis. Finally the applicability of the newly developed technique to the behavior of foundation composed of soft clay proved satisfactory.

  • A pilot test using environmentally friendly drains, was carried out to evaluate their applicability potential in the field. The pilot test site was divided into 5 different areas, with several combinations of vertical and horizontal drains installed for evaluation. Conventional natural fiber drains (FDB), new developed straw drain board (SDB) and plastic drain board (PDB) were used as vertical drains, while sand and fiber mats were used as horizontal drains. Surface settlement rates and excess pore pressure generation/dissipation tendency of PDB and FDB are almost identical except those of SDB. Cone tip resistance obtained from cone penetration test measured at the end of 1st consolidation stage for upper soft layer definitely increased irrespective of types of vertical drains. The monitoring and site investigation test data obtained at the pilot test site prove the vertical natural fiber drains can be used as substitutes of conventional plastic and sand material.

  • PVD (Prefabricated Vertical drain) consists of filter and core. An effective PVD has two basic filtration functions ; first to retain soil particle ; and second, to allow water to pass from the soil into the PVD core without clogging or blinding. Clogging which reduces the permeability of the geotextile filter jacket is caused by fine particles penetrating into the geotextile filter jacket in relatively low permeability soil conditions. As clogging performance increases gradually, excess pore water flow from soil is resisted and finally consolidation delays. Current soil-geotextile filter system criteria are generally based on relationships between a representative pore size of the geotextile and particle size of the soil. In Korea, PVD geotextile filter system criteria have been applied by only testing AOS (Apparent Opening Size) of filters without evaluating the filtration and clogging performance on soil-geotexile filter systems. Therefore, the filtration tests on soil-geotexile filter systems were conducted in order to evaluate the filtration and clogging performance with 3 kinds of geotextile filters. On these tests, we have applied geotextile filter system criteria on PVD in ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ sites.

  • It is very important to determine the consolidation rate of ground, depending on the progress of time in applying this vertical drain method. Various consolidation analysis solutions capable of forecasting the consolidation rate are being proposed at the moment. However, the degree of consolidation measured from site, has a considerable different from the degree of consolidation which was obtained by the analysis of vertical drain consolidation. This study aims at assessing the applicability and verfication of each consolidation analysis solution by comparing and analyzing the degree of consolidation measured in the field and the degree of consolidation based on the theoretical equation for the analysis of the consolidation of Hansbo, Onoue, Zeng and Xie used as the consolidation analysis solution before the beginning of construction, on the basis of monitored field results and site investigation data as to the deep soft ground in Busan area applied by PBD method.

  • Although the discharge capacity of the natural fiber drains are very low compared to that of plastic drain board (PDB), it is found that the conventional fiber drains and the new developed straw drain boards have great potential for use as a substitute for conventional plastic drain boards through several model tests. To verify their field application, a pilot test using environmentally friendly drains is also being carried out to prove their effective discharge capacity in the field. The pilot test site was divided into 5 different areas, with various combinations of vertical and horizontal drains installed for evaluation. Definite characteristics of various drains are still to be found due to the delay in construction of embankment. Consolidation behavior of three types of vertical drains and two types of horizontal drains will be analyzed after the completion of the embankment in the near future.
