This paper introduces a new method of improvement for marine soft ground, MLPP (Marine large Pack Pile). The MLPP is a reinforcement technique far the conventional SCP or GCP piles by confining them with geotextile pack. A pilot project at Busan New Port site and laboratory model tests were carried out to investigate the settlement reduction and bearing capacity enhancement effect of pack pile. The results of field and laboratory tests show that MLPP method can be a safe and economic alternative method for SCP and GCP.

This paper proposes a stabilizing method against landslide using slide suppressor wall reinforced with soil nails. Included are a procedure to predict earth pressures acting on the concrete panel and a method of analysis of stabilizing pile. Based on the proposed procedure, the efficient installation type and inclusion angle of nails are analyzed. Also, optimum location of the slide suppressor wall composed of concrete panel and stabilizing pile is analyzed. Finally the comparison with a method proposed by Wright is made, and the effect of interactions between stabilizing piles is examined, throughout the design example.

This paper described that the failure causes of reinforced slope are analyzed based on the effect of geological and rainfall. The analysis result confirmed that the rainfall has effects on the stability of reinforced slope. Therefore, it was applied to the dewatering method using collector well for slope stabilized, and then the analysis of seepage and slope stability were conducted on slope with the applied method. The results of seepage analysis are corresponded with failure cause by rainfall and the results of slope stability, which is applied to dewatering method, are satisfied with safety factor criterion. Therefore, it confirmed that the dewatering method using collector could be possible to apply in field and reasonable method for slope stabilized during heavy rainfall.

When planning gripper TBM, which is highly applicable to urban areas, the excavation characteristics are not considered. In addition the excavation stability and constructability are degraded by installing reinforcements in the adjacent construction site considering the relaxation load theory of the pre-existing NATM. In this study, a rationalization plan for the support was proposed considering the excavation characteristics of gripper TBM when planning reinforcements for adjacent pre-existing construction. The effect of excavation on the surrounding ground was analyzed by conducting three-dimensional stability analyses considering the construction stage for each excavation phase. In NATM, relaxation phenomenon is concentrated in tunnel face due to non-supporting time occurring simultaneously with excavation, but gripper TBM supports the ground around the tunnel face through the cutter head and skin plate, simultaneously causing ground relaxation behind the skin plate. Considering these excavation characteristics, problems in reinforcement planning for adjacent construction at the study site were pointed out. A performance improvement plan for a reasonable supporting system was proposed.

교량 하부구조 특히 교각 및 기초의 경우는 지반 또는 수중에 묻혀 있기 때문에 손상을 발견하기도 어렵고 또한 손상의 보수 및 보강이 곤란한 경우가 많다. 하부구조의 손상은 지반의 마모, 침하, 측방유동토압, 하상세굴, 홍수류, 선박 및 유하물에 의한 충격, 지진 등의 여러 원인에 의하여 발생된다. 이러한 손상은 지표수 및 지하수 배제공, 성토공, 지반개량공, 단면보수공, 세굴방지공, 내진보강공 등에 의하여 보수 및 보강이 행하여 진다. 본 고에서는 이러한 하부구조의 보수.보강공법 중 수중부에 실시되는 방법에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

The existing geotextile reinforced soil wall methods have a demerit in terms of esthetic view because concrete panel or block are used as wall facing of the methods. If grass planting walls could be used in reinforced soil slope or wall methods, efficiency of the methods would be increased with maximization of advantage of the methods. In this study, some possible methods in which grass planting wall is used as wall facing are devised. A series of laboratory model tests were performed to investigate the behavior of newly devised methods in order to compare with the results of each others. As a major result, it was found that this kinds of grass wall facing methods could be accepted as a new construction method even in the sense of stability.

Generally, it is known that urethane injection is excellent in long-term durability and environment friendly for ground improvement. However, urethane grouting has short rise time thus the penetration distance from the injection point is so short. Therefore, urethane injection cannot be used for the site where requires ground improvement in deep location from the injection point. Other injection materials such as cement cannot be alternatives when rapid hardening is required. From this study, we improve disadvantage urethane injection by developing TAS method. From the field tests, it is ascertained that TAS increases injection distance over 10m, which is further than that of original urethane grouting. In addition, TAS has relatively short Rise-time compared to cement grouting thus instantaneous improvement can be mobilized right after the injection. Short Rise-time and long penetration distance provide excellent applicability for tunnel construction.
