The purpose of this study is to decide the permeability and the rate of flow in a way of both site investigation and backward analysis and the most reasonable numerical analysis by performing a seepage model test for measuring the deformation swept volume of the embankment body in order to review a stability of the sea dyke being composed of multi-layers depending on variation of infiltration. As a result of the review, it could be forecasted that sweeping loss would be taken place at the boundary between bed protection works and embankment materials of the sea dyke due to a permeability difference of the multi-layered bed foundation structures and the sea dyke deformation would be occurred as a result thereby. As result of a numerical analysis for the seepage model test, it could be observed that critical velocity method was found to be smaller than the numerical analysis value but its tendency was similar and therefore it was judged that this method could be applied for the actual cross section.

The model test and field test for an infiltration trench were carried out to estimate the infiltration quantity in a granular ground with high permeability like Jeju's ground. The specific infiltration equation was suggested on the basis of the model test result. It shows that the infiltration quantity by the proposed equation is larger than about two times of that by the existed equation. Meanwhile, the infiltration quantity from field test is similar to that from the proposed equation as the result of comparison between infiltration quantity of the filed test and that of the proposed equation and the existed equation. Therefore, it may be right that the proposed equation is applied to estimate the infiltration quantity of the infiltration trench in a granular ground with high permeability.

The parameters in the Horton's model which has well known as typical infiltration model were determined by the use of the optimization technique. It was assumed the initial infiltration capacity in this model was related to the antecedent precipitation per 10 days with linear combination. And both the parameters of the ultimate infiltration capacity and the decay factor were determined uniquely on a basin. Thus the optimal model's parameters representative to a basin were obtained and the Horton's infiltration equations by rainstorm events were determined. The data of ten rainstorm events for this study were observed at the Jeonjeokbigyo station located at the Selmacheon experimental basin that was $8.5km^2$ wide in the Imjin river.

이 연구에서는 SEEP2D 모형을 사용하여 하부에 투수지반을 갖는 제방 내부의 침투흐름에 대한 수치모의를 수행하였다. 제방의 재료는 4대강사업 낙동강 제2하구둑 건설 현장에서 채취한 시료를 사용하였으며, 입도분석과 들밀도시험을 통해 구한 제방의 건조단위중량과 다짐도 및 제방의 투수계수는 각각 $1.372g/cm^3$, 93%, 1.35 m/day이다. 투수지반층과 1:3 비탈경사를 가지는 제방모형을 제작하여 연직 이차원 정상류 침투해석 모형을 해석하는 SEEP2D 프로그램을 사용하여 나온 결과 값을 수리모형 실험 결과 값과 비교하였다. 모의조건은 0.45 m, 0.50 m, 0.55 m, 0.60 m의 4가지 수위(각각 Case1~4)조건에 대하여 수리모형실험과 동일한 조건을 수치모형에 적용하였다. 수치모형의 결과는 실험결과와 비교적 일치하였지만 제방의 비탈사면이 시작하는 부분에서는 수치모형의 결과 값보다 실험결과 값이 작은 것으로 확인되었다. 각각의 조건별로 수치해와 실험 결과값을 비교해본 결과 대체적으로 비슷한 양상을 보였지만 제방의 비탈사면이 시작하는 지점부터 수치모형의 결과 값보다 실험결과 값이 작은 것으로 확인되었다. Case3의 경우 4.35 m 지점부터 6.00 m 지점까지 유출이 발생하였으며 수치모형의 결과값과 실험결과 값의 차이가 가장 작게 나타났다. 사면유출 길이는 Case4에서 가장 길게 나타났으며 최대 4.10 cm로 발생하였다.

Sea dyke construction is simply defined as a cutting procedure of sea water flow. Sea dyke construction is more difficult than in-land construction because it is placed on deep seabed and exposed sea wave attack. Especially, the final closure of sea dyke is most dangerous due to the fast velocity of tidal flow. The final closure is consisted with vast rubble and heavy stone gabion, therefore the discharge velocity at land side of final close section is irregularly and sometime occur the fast discharge velocity. In this paper, the seepage model test performed to evaluate seepage behavior of final closure and continuous sea dyke section such as discharge velocity, hydraulic gradient, and phreatic line with installation of bottom protection filter mat. Based on the seepage model test results, the maximum discharge velocity of final closure section is 1.7m/sec and the discharge velocity is decreased maximum 23.7% with installation of bottom protection filter mat.

In this study, the characteristics of chemical grouting, such as solidification, penetrability, were analyzed experimentally by grain size of grout materials and permeability, relative density of the ground. For evaluating applicability of grout material, solidification tests and permeability tests were peformed. From the results of the tests, effective solidification ratio and penetrability ratio of Micro Cement were 75% and 86% respectively when ground permeability was in the range of 10$^{-4}$ to 10$^{-2}$cm/sec. On the other hand, effective solidification ratio and penetrability ratio of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) were both lower than 50%. When penetrability of grout material is needed for improvement of dam foundation and soft ground, application of Micro Cement is much superior to that of the other materials. The results of the grouting tests in the hydrodynamic ground show that the solidification effect of long gel-time grout material is excellent as injection pressure increases when groundwater velocity is relatively low. But when groundwater velocity is relatively high, the solidifcation effect of long gel-time grout material is very poor because most grout materials are outflowed.

국내에서 수행한 대부분의 제방 침투에 대한 수리모형실험 연구는 제체만을 대상으로 수행되었으며, 투수성 기초지반을 고려한 연구는 찾아보기 어려운 상황이다. 이 연구에서는 개정된 제방설계기준에 따른 1:3의 비탈경사와 투수성 기초지반을 가지는 제방의 침투실험을 수행하였으며, 향후 제방침투 수치모의에 필요한 검보정 자료를 확보할 목적으로 수행하였다. 부산광역시 강서구에 위치한 낙동강 제2하구둑 건설 현장에서 제체의 재료를 채취여 입도분석과 들밀도시험을 통해 제방의 건조단위중량과 다짐도 및 제방의 투수계수는 각각 $1.372g/cm^3$, 93%, 1.35 m/day이며 통일분류법의 SM에 속하는 것으로 확인하였다. 0.45 m, 0.50 m, 0.55 m, 0.60 m의 4가지 수위(각각 Case-1~4) 조건에 대하여 정상상태에 도달할 때까지 실험을 계속한 결과 각각의 실험조건별 침윤선은 대체로 동일한 양상을 보였지만 몇 지점에서 위압수두계 수위의 이상점이 발견되었다. 제방을 해체하면서 원인을 찾아본 결과 머드볼이 형성되어 있음을 확인하였으며, 침투 흐름에 상당한 영향을 미쳤을 것으로 생각된다.

In this paper, a laboratory model test was conducted to evaluate grouting efficiency of ordinary portland cement(OPC) and micro cement used in MIS(Micro-Injection Process System). For this research, a injection equipment was developed for pressure permeation which can evenly simulate various grouting tests in a laboratory and suggested a standard for the production of the test specimen. Using the injection device, the laboratory injection tests of grouts were prepared with water/cement ratio of 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, and 5:1. The analysis of injection test for pressure permeation showed that the efficiency of injection increases linearly as the water/cement ratio increases. Comparison of efficiency of the injection indicates that MIS with a relatively smaller average diameter shows more efficient injection than the OPC. In the low ratio of water/cement as 2:1~1:1, the injection efficiency of OPC was especially poor. Also, a nonlinear grout volume-injection time is represented by a hyperbolic model and grout volume predicted by hyperbolic model was compared with the value measured. From the comparison, it shows that the hyperbolic model has the potential of evaluating the efficiency of grouting.

The presence of piping in a levee body allows water seepage to occur by producing a large cavity or water tunnel within it, ultimately resulting in the failure of the river levee and differential settlement. In order to properly cope with river levee failure due to piping and establish a proper remediation method for this problem, it is necessary to analyze the failure mechanism of the river levee due to piping. Therefore, this study analyzed the shape and mechanism of river levee failure due to piping through small-scale and large-scale models and evaluated the seepage pressure distribution characteristics in the hydraulic well, which has been suggested as a remediation method for piping. According to the results of this study, as the safety factor for the piping in the river levee decreased, the river levee failure shape was more clearly shown through the small-scale model test. In the large-scale model test, the type of local damage to the levee due to the piping was identified and the evaluation showed that the hydraulic well had the largest effect on the inhibition of piping below the center of the well. A follow-up study is needed to confirm the reliability of the results. However, it is thought that this study can be utilized as the baseline data for research into the piping-induced river levee failure mechanism and for the preparation of a remediation method.

When cement grout is used for waterproofing of grounds, important roles are played by fluidity, particle size and bleeding. The most important element which determines their characteristics is the water/cement ratio of grout. Moreover in order to improve the efficiency of soil permeation, micro cement with a smaller average diameter is used in addition to ordinary portland cement. Besides the mixing ratio and cement diameter, the condition of ground is also of fundamental importance in the efficiency of permeation. In order to evaluate grout in terms of permeation ability into ground, we need a field test of grounting, which is cost and time consuming. In this paper we present a laboratory test method in which the suitability and efficiency of grouts are simply and more practically tested. In Korea neither a test standard nor devices are available to simulate grouting in a laboratory. We devised a grout injection equipment in which grouting was reproduced in the same condition with different materials, and suggested a standard for the production of specimens. Our tests revealed that the efficiency of injection increases with the water/cement ratio. We also found that more efficiently injected is the grout with the order of decreasing size; MS8000, micro cement, and ultra fine cements, and colloidal super cement.
