In this study, rainwater resources facilities were constructed on the slope as a feasibility study. It is considered that rainwater resources facilities were constructed with the selected cross-section, and the stability analyses in cases of normal and abnormal condition were conducted as using the computer model. As a result of the stability analysis, the stability of the selected cross-section in the case of normal operation was lower than in the case of abnormal condition. Therefore, In order to design and maintain the rainwater resources facilities, it is likely that soil surveys are certainly carried out before the decision of the specification of rainwater resources facilities.

Kozeny-Carman equation has been generally applied to prediction of permeability for soil. The Kozeny-Carman equation has indicated fairly good results in prediction of sandy soils, but it is known that the equation is not appropriate for fine-grained soils such as cohesive soils. Therefore, a theoretical equation based on Kozeny-Carman equation is proposed to predict of permeability for cohesive soils in this paper. To develop the theoretical equation, soil properties of cohesive soil existed in the coastal areas and compacted cohesive soil used for the core of a dam were investigated and analyzed. As the results of this limited study, the most related factors between soil properties and permeability were #200 passing percentage for compacted cohesive soil, and clay content for cohesive soil at the coast areas.

The stability of slurry trench system is closely associated with the characteristics of the filter cake (assumed impervious membrane) transferring the hydrostatic force of slurry to the trench walls. The effectiveness of this assumption in a wide range of trench systems has been examined with the aid of a Finite Element program. Build up of excess porewater pressure in the soil mass behind the filter cake is a function of the slurry density, the properties of filter cake, the ground conditions, time, the geometry of trench and the original ground water level. These factors were all investigated by the Finite Element Method. The most significant factors were found to be the ground conditions and the properties of filter cake.

In dynamic analyses such as seismic ground response and soil-structure interaction problems, it is very crucial to obtain accurate dynamic shear modulus of soil deposit. In this study, an extensive data base of available experimental data is compiled and reanalyzed to establish a simple empirical formula for the dynamic shear modulus reduction curve to cover wide range of strain for sandy soils. The proposed empirical equation is to represent the dynamic shear modulus degradation with strain in terms of low-amplitude dynamic shear modulus and effective mean confining Pressure, since those factors have the most significant effect on the Position and shape of the shear modulus reduction curve for nonelastic soils. If low-amplitude shear modulus is measured, degraded modulus at any shear strain amplitude can be calculated using the proposed equation.

호소 수질에 영향을 미치는 대표적 인자로 외부 유입물질과 퇴적물을 들 수 있다. 따라서, 호소 수질 관리를 위해서는 호소로 유입되는 점ㆍ비점 오염원 관리와 함께, 퇴적층 관리도 수반되어야만 한다. 특히, 호소수가 주요 식수원으로 사용되는 경우에는 엄격한 퇴적토질 평가가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 소양호 퇴적층에 대한 환경지질학적 조사 연구의 일환으로 다양한 bioassays 기법(the battery of bioassays)을 적용하여 퇴적토의 오염상태를 평가하였다.

Serious damages occurred in Yeongdong area of Gangwondo by typoon Rusa in August, 2002. Therefore, this study intends to investigate and analyse the characteristics of landslide having occurred in Gangneung area. 11 sites including many features of landslide were selected and scales, soil properties and a state of vegatation of slopes were investigated. It can be concluded that rainfall intensity, the velocity of the wind, geomorphology, vegatation and forest fire etc. are considered as main factors affecting occurrence of landslides in this area.

본 연구는 ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ 공구 공유수면 매립공사 수행 중에 매립토량의 부족이 발생함에 따라 이를 대상으로 원인을 분석하고자 수행하였다. 매립지의 토량부족 원인을 파악하기 위해 설계 및 계측자료를 수집하여 시공 현황을 파악하고 지반조사를 통해 해안지역과 매립지반의 시료를 채취하여 성상분석과 원지반에 대한 공학적 특성을 비교 검토하였다. 특히. 현장 시추조사에 의한 경계면 분석과 토질 종류를 점성토, 사질토, 부유토로 구분하고 침하량 공식에 따라 발생량을 산출하였다. 구역의 구분은 설계 시와 동일한 조건에서 침하량을 계산하였고 설계 시 지반고가 침식과 퇴적으로 인해 일부 변경되어 설계시 지반고와 착공시 지반고를 구분하여 기재하고 각각의 침하량을 비교하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the hydrochemical characteristics of groundwater in the Umsung area, and to elucidate the effect of host rock type, well depth and mineralization zone on the groundwater chemistry. The geology of the study area consists of Jurassic granite and Cretaceous sedimentary rocks, which are bounded by a fault. Most of shallow groundwaters exploited in the Jurassic granite area are used for agricultural purpose, whereas the deep groundwaters in the Cretaceous sedimentary rocks are used for a drinking water. The shallow groundwater shows weak acidic pH, the electrical conductivity ranging from $142\;to\;903\;{\mu}S/cm$, and the chemical type of $Ca-HCO_3\;to\;Ca-Cl(SO_4,\;NO_3)$. A few of shallow groundwaters are contaminated by nitrate, and show high concentration of Fe, Mn and Zn, that reflects the effect of a mineralization zone. The deep groundwater shows neutral to weak alkaline pH, higher electrical conductivity than that of shallow groundwater, and the chemical type of $Ca-HCO_3$. The seepage water from the abandoned mines does not have the characteristics such as acidic pH, high concentration of heavy metals and high sulfate content. The hydrogen and oxygen isotopes of groundwater indicates an altitude effect of the recharge area between deep groundwater and shallow groundwater. In conclusion, the chemical composition of groundwater complicately reflects the effects of their host rocks, well depth, agricultural activity and mineralization zone in the study area.

Reliability of the cone penetration test (CPT) for estimating shear strength of marine soils is investigated in this paper. For sands, the uncertainty about the angle of internal friction is analyzed. It includes the spatial variation of the soil and the model error in the equation used for interpretation. The most serious uncertainty encountered was the error in the interpretative models. Different methods of interpretation gave quite different values. Subjective opinion was introduced to combine all the interpretative models in a systematic manner. For clays, the undrained Shear Strength from the CPT results is usually =derived by empirical correlations between cone resistance and untrained shear strength from laboratory tests or field vane tests, expressed in terms of cone factor and function of overburden pressure. The uncertainty of the undrained shear strength is caused by data scatter of the cone factor in the correlation, model error of the cone factor, effect of anisotropy, and spatial variability of cone resistance. Among these uncertainties, the most serious one was the data scatter of the cone factor in the .correlation. Between the laboratory test and the field vane test used for correlation, the field vane test was more reliable.
