The ground around the portal of a tunnel is the most typical part showing the 3-dimensional mechanical behavior in the tunnel. The portal slope is constructed at the weathered soft rock-mass, and remains as a potential sliding mass. The slope failure around the tunnel portal may happen drastically and induce the great disaster; hence, for the permanent stability several special techniques are required. To solve this problem, the ground around the tunnel portal may be excavated in the arch shape to develop the arching effect in horizontal direction. With the arch-type portal slope, one can reduce considerably the excavation mass and the damage of environments. This approach has not been attempted yet due to the lack of understanding and the well-defined analyzing method, so the retaining wall type portal is more universal. The 3-dimensional finite element analyses were carried out to prove that the arch type is more advantageous in safety and cost than the right angle type. The influence of the tunnel construction sequence and the strength of the rock-mass on the slope stability was investigated by focusing on the maximum shear strain in the slope, and the yield zone at the tunnel face.

What is particularly noteworthy from Korean and foreign railway tunnel disaster prevention standards is that for the sake of rapid evacuation, more stringent standards for provision of evacuation passages, which require high cost, are being applied. Korean standards stipulate that passage installation should be determined in accordance with the level of risk through a QRA analysis of each tunnel with 1km or longer length. As, however, detailed application criteria as fire occurrence probability, fire occurrence scenario, size of fires and evaluation criteria for level of social risk are not available, additional costs may be incurred due to excessive design. Thus, standards of an appropriate level need to be established. With this backdrop, this study selects detailed application conditions of a reasonable and appropriate level through a study and analysis of relevant documents and analyzes the maximum length of tunnels to which the application of evacuation passages, or the application major evacuation promotion facilities, can be relaxed, together with a QRA analysis of model tunnels (for high speed rail) with different tunnel lengths. In addition, the QRA results on tunnels, including those on the Honam high-speed rail, and analysis results for the model tunnels, are compiled, ; the ultimate results are compared with Korean and other countries' standards related to evacuation promotion facilities, As a result, The appropriateness of application standards are reviewed. These results are expected to be utilized as basic material for establishing a reasonable disaster prevention plan that will consider safety and economies.

Microcement grouting and micro pile are frequently used for ground modification during tunnel construction. The influence of grouting pressure of microcement grouting and micro pile to the existing bridge which is directly over the constructing tunnel is investigated. Three dimensional seepage flow-structure interactive analysis considering firm water pressure with full stages of construction including the construction of upper bridge, microcement grouting, micro pile and tunnel is performed. The settlement and tilting of the pier of existing bridge violate the design code and the reaction of the bridge are highly increased after grouting. The stress of tunnel bracings such as rockbolt and shotcrete also exceed the limit of the code. The pressure of microcement grouting is confined by bedrock and transmit to the surrounded soil and the upper bridge. Microcement grouting needs mid-high pressure to penetrate through weak fault plane and the pressure greatly influence the safety of the upper structure. It is important to decide and care the grouting pressure to improve weak fault plane directly under the existing structures and the pressure of microcement grouting should be considered in underground analysis.

This paper describes a study on the permeability reduction of the riverbed ground during urban railway tunnel construction. The research is mainly concentrated on the study of the grouting or injection methods among permeability reduction methods which can be adapted in the riverbed ground. The design technology of grouting methods considering the long term hydro-geological behaviour in the riverbed, was suggested. Two injection methods namely, Natural Durable Stabilizer (N.D.S) and Space-Multi Injection Grouting (S.M.I) methods, were introduced as new approach methods which could be adapted to modify the riverbed ground. In order to evaluate the performance of the improved ground by the N.D.S and S.M.I method, a series of pilot tests including the field and laboratory permeability tests, were carried out in the river crossing tunnel construction sites. The results obtained from pilot test program, were also reviewed. The results, the grouting efficiency of the S.M.I method using the non-alkalimeter silica sol is better than that of N.D.S method using cement. In addition, it is anticipated that the current research results are contributed to develop the grouting design technology.

(1) 화약발파작업을 시작하기 전에는 필히 시험발파, 안전진단을 통해 공해 및 안전사고 발생요소들을 면밀히 분석하고 파악하여 발파공법, 천공공법, 사용폭약 의 종류, 사용약량 등을 결정하고 이에 따른 적합한 안전거리의 설정, 안전덮게, 안전망의 사용, 필요시 휀스철망 설치등의 안전조치를 완벽히 취해야겠다. 또한 현행 소음진동규제법에 의하면 폭약 사용시 7일전 신고의무 규정을 우리나라의 공사 현실을 감안해 볼 재검토 할 필요가 있다. (2) 선진국의 발파진동 기준을 우리나라 의 경우와 비교 분석해 볼때 우리나라의 경우 발파진동 안전기준은 도심지에는 대체 로 0.5cm/sec가 적당하고 고주택, 아파트 등이 밀집된 지역이나 건물지반이 특히 약한 곳은 0.2cm/sec을 적용함이 타당하다고 판단된다. 또한 도심지에서의 안전발파 를 위한 터널공법으로는 주변 생활환경 소음진동방지를 위한 심발법으로 브이 컷법 을, 여굴방지와 미려시공 등 공사시 안전사고, 소음진동을 방지하기 위한 공법으로는 슬러리, 파이 넥스 폭약을 이용한 정밀면 발파법을 권장한다. (3) 연화발사시 안전 거리를 3.deg. 기준 최소반경 129m, 12" 기준 최고 반경 200m로 설정하여야 겠다. 또한 연화발사시 발생하는 폭발 소음은 80 - 100dB 정도로써 대량으로 장시간 발사 시는 청력장해 등의 피해가 발생할 수 있으나 우리나라의 경우는 발사 총 시간이 대체로 30분을 초과하지 않으므로 관람자나 일반인들이 소음피해를 호소할 수준은 아니라고 결론지을 수 있다.수 있다.

Explosive blasting in tunnel excavation produces ground vibration and air blast as its side effects, which may cause complaints from nearby residents. This study was intended to investigate the propagation characteristics of ground vibration induced by tunnel blasting and to evaluate its effects on the residential structures near the site. We have conducted field measurements for 6 blasts and acquired vibration data from 70 measuring points, some of which on positioned inside the tunnel for comparative reason. Various documentation was reviewed to determine an allowable level of peak particle velocity for the residential structures in the area and the allowable limit was set to 0.5 cm/sec. Propagation equations for peak particle velocities were derived from regression analyses using the data acquired at both the surface and the underground tunnel. Finally we proposed appropriate predictive equations for the two areas and a safe blasting criterion.

Recently, a longitudinal tunnel construction has increased because of subway construction extension, geomorphological effect and the development of construction Technologies etc. When the fire occurs in a tunnel and an underground structure, the many damage of human life and the economic losses are caused. In Korea, fire resistance character study of a tunnel and an underground structure is proceeding. However, when a concrete is exposed to high temperature, study of load carrying capacity reduction and stability evaluation for spalling of a concrete is not enough. Therefore in this study, fire resistance character of a concrete evaluated according to time heating temperature curve(RABT and RWS) and a result compared on virtual fire accident in order to apply fire scenario. Also this study performed thermo-mechanical coupled analysis of a FEM-based numerical technique and estimated fire-induced damage of a tunnel and an underground structure.
