서울지하철 터널의 상당 구간이 막장면이 풍화토에서 풍화암까지 변화하는 복합화강토지반에 건설되어 왔다. 화강암풍화지반은 심도에 따라 강도의 변화가 크며, 수위가 높고 투수성 지반인 특징을 갖는다. 터널은 주로 비원형 배수터널로 설계되고 NATM 공법으로 시공되었다. 이와 같은 여건의 터널현장에서 발생하였던 붕괴사례를 조사한 결과, 대부분의 붕괴가 터널 어깨 부근으로부터 시작되었고, 구조적으로 완전하지 않은 라이닝, 그리고 지하수와의 연관성 등의 공통적 특징이 확인되었다. 이러한 터널문제는 지반조건, 시공조건, 터널형상 등 경계조건이 복잡하여 한계평형 해석과 같은 종래의 해석적 방법으로 터널안정을 검토하기가 용이하지 않다. 그 가장 큰 이유중의 하나는 터널의 파괴메카니즘에 대한 분명한 정보를 알 수 없는데 있다. 파괴메카니즘의 조사에는 전통적으로 원심모형시험법이 많이 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 화강토지반내의 터널처럼 복잡한 경계조건을 갖는 터널문제에는 적용하기 어렵다. 따라서 이에 대한 하나의 대안으로서 본 논문에서는 지반거동의 비선형성을 고려하는 Coupled 수치해석법을 이용하여 파괴메카니즘을 조사하였다. 수치해석결과의 증분변위벡터, 누적소성편차변형률 그리고 속도특성치(velocity characteristics)의 분석을 통해 실제 붕괴사례와 잘 일치하는 명확한 파괴메카니즘을 파악할 수 있었다. 이로부터 복잡한 경계조건을 갖는 터널 문제의 안정해석을 위한 파괴메카니즘을 조사하는 수치해석적 접근방법을 제시하였다.

오늘날 폐기물 매립장의 구조적 안정성문제는 국내.외적으로 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있으며, 특히, 사면의 차수체계에서의 안정성에 대한 논란이 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있다. 또한, 우리 나라는 주민들의 NIMBY 현상과 국토의 효율적 활용을 위하여, 폐기물 매립장을 해안매립지나 산간지방에 많이 건설하고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 경우 사면구배가 급해지고 토목섬유의 활용이 불가피해져 안정성에 많은 문제점을 내포하게 된다. 이 연구는 폐기물 매립장 사면의 안정성을 해석하기 위하여, 원심모형실험을 실시하였다. 또한, 이론식 및 사면안정 해석 프로그램을 이용하여 안전을 산정하였다. 이 연구에 사용한 토목섬유 점토차수재(GCLs)의 팽윤도는 침출수와 증류수의 투과수에 대하여 22~25%의 팽윤도를 보였으며, 투수계수는 투과수가 침출수일 경우, 1.47$\times$10-10cm/sec, 증류수일 경우, 8.75$\times$10-11cm/sec의 값을 나타내었다. 원심모형실험 결과, 토목섬유 점토차수재의 포화여부와 지오멤브레인(HDPE)의 표면거칠기에 따라 사면 안전율이 각각 변화함을 알 수 있었으며, 표면이 거친 지오멤브레인과 건조한 토목섬유 점토차수재를 사용하였을 때, 파괴가 발생되지 않아 사면안정성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 또한, 이론에 의해 도출된 사면의 안전율과 사면안정 해석프로그램에 의한 안전율 계산 시, 전자의 경우가 후자의 경우보다 작게 평가됨을 알 수 있다.

Based on the field measuring data obtained from seven excavation sections in Inchon International Airport Project, the horizontal displacement of sheet piling walls supported by anchors and the lateral earth pressure acting on sheet piling walls was investigated in soft ground. The proposed diagram of lateral earth pressure is a rectangular form, and the maximum earth pressure corresponds to $0.6\gamma H$. The maximum earth pressure is similar to the empirical earth pressure proposed by NAVFAC(1982). The quantitative safe criterion of sheet piling walls with struts is established from the relationships between increasing velocity of maximum horizontal displacement and stability number in excavated ground. If the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement shows lower than 1mm per day, the sheet piling walls exist under stable state. When the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement becomes more than 1mm and less than 2mm per day, excavation works should be observed with caution. Also, when the velocity of maximum horizontal displacement becomes more than 2mm per day, appropriate remediations and reinforcements are applied to sheet piling walls.

An excessive ground displacement occurs with excavating tunnel in a fault zone because the fault has properties of soft ground in generally. It may have had a bad influence to adjacent structure. So, rapid reduction of ground strength by groundwater inflow should be prevented. It must be established for an impervious and reinforcing effect of ground to ensure a tunnel stability. The ground settlement and reinforcing effects were estimated by numerical analyses on tunnel through 570 m sector in Yangsan fault zone of Keongbu high-speed railway. Settlements evaluated by numerical analysis is similar to those calculated by using equation of Loganathan & Poulo. It was shown that reliable estimate of ground settlement by applying a prediction equation is possible. Applicability of adopted tunnel reinforcement method in fault zone was investigated by results of pilot construction and numerical analysis. Results from this study indicate that the adopted reinforcement method make tunnel displacements and member stresses restrain in design criteria.

Numerous studies on the improvement of low strength for soft ground have been performed. EPS, light weight filling material, is used at the study site for stability on consolidation settlement. However, several problems such as settlement of pavement layer and damage of curb occurs. The elevation is lower 1 m than that of designed value by consolidation. It is caused by excessive load during construction. In this study, problems due to overloading on the soft ground where the EPS is used were analyzed and some cases for reasonable improvement method were described. From the results, instructions for design and construction are suggested.

A need still exists to evaluate the durability performance of cemented gedmaterials in road constructions using various cementing binders due to seasonal changes in fields as well as structural performance. In this paper, durability characteristics of stabilized granular base and subgrade materials, which is widely used in korea, was assessed using a laboratory repeated load resilient-deformation test under various freezing-thawing and wet-drying cyclic conditions. In addition, various resilient modulus models were adopted based on the test results. As a result, the estimated model coefficients agree well with the values from the literatures.

With improving computer penormance and advancing simulation techniques, a growing number of softwares are being developed for visualization of investigation results in geotechnical problems. It is a very important subject for geological site investigation to understand or predict if there would be any hazardous geological conclition that might cause any increase of construction costs or an extension of construction period. A 3-D (three-climensional) visualization technique may be one of the powerful tools to overcome an uncertainty problem of geologica] site investigatior. The paper describes an overview of a newly developed geotechnical 3-D interpretation system for the purpose of applying the 3-D visualization technique, GIS (geographic information system) and D/B (database) to tunnel design and construction. VR (virtual reality) and 3-D visualization techniques are applied in order to develope the 3-D model of characteristics and structures of rock mass. D/B system for all the materials related to site investigation and tunnel construction is developed using GIS technique. This system is very useful for civil engineers to make a plan of tunnel construction at the design stage and also during construction with the advantage of improving the economy and safety of tunnels.

Methods for deriving design input-parameters to ensure the stability of a structure on a common ground are generally well known. Folded metamorphic rocks, such as the study area, are highly foliated and have small faults parallel to the foliation, resulting in special research methods and tests to derive design input parameters, Etc. are required. The metamorphic rock ground with foliation development of several mm intervals has a direct shear test on the foliation surface, the strike/dip mapping of the foliation, the boring investigation to determine the continuity of the foliation, and the rock mass rating of the metamorphic rock. etc. are required. In the case of a large number of small foliation-parallel faults developed along a specific foliation plane, it is essential to analyze the lineament, surface geologic mapping for fault tracing, and direct shear test. Folded ground requires additional geological-structural-domain analysis, discontinuity analysis of stereonet, electrical resistivity exploration along the fold axis, and so on.
