사면 안정 해석은 주로 파괴 활동면의 전단 강도와 발휘되는 전단 강도의 최대비로서 표현되는 파괴활동의 추정을 위해 기존의 고전적인 방법을 사용하거나 이와 유사한 방법등이 사용되어 왔다. 이러한 방법들은 토질에 있어서의 상호 작용력과 그에 따른 전당력 및 사면 활동면의 반복되는 추정등의 가정으로 불확실성을 내포하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토질전체를 연속체로 규정하고 비선형 유한요소법을 이용한 토질의 실제 응력과 강도를 정확하게 계산하였다. 사면 안정은 점차적 인증력의 증가로서 사면의 붕괴 활동면이 나타나FEo 까지로 해석되었다. 제시된 방법의 세부적인 사항은 예제를 통하여 설명되어 있다.

Target reliability index in the limit state design indicated the safety margin and it is important to determine the partial factor. To determine the target reliability index which is needed in the limit state design, the six design and construction case histories of gravel compaction piles (GCP) were investigated. The limit state functions were defined by bulging failure for the major failure mode of GCP. The reliability analysis were performed using the first order reliability method (FORM) and the reliability index was calculated for each ultimate bearing capacity formulation. The reliability index of GCP tended to be penportional to the safety factor of allowable stress design and average value was ${\beta}$=2.30. Reliability level that was assessed by reliability analysis and target reliability index for existing structure foundations were compared and analyzed. As a result, The GCP was required a relatively low level of safety compared with deep and shallow foundations and the currd t reliability level were similar to the target reliability in the reinforced earth retaining-wall and soil-nailing. Therefore the target reliability index of GCP suggested as ${\beta}_T$=2.33 by various literatures together with the computed reliability level in this study.

This paper presents a dynamic crack propagation algorithm based on the Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method. The derivative approximation for the MLS difference method is derived by Taylor expansion and moving least squares procedure. The method can analyze dynamic crack problems using only node model, which is completely free from the constraint of grid or mesh structure. The dynamic equilibrium equation is integrated by the Newmark method. When a crack propagates, the MLS difference method does not need the reconstruction of mode model at every time step, instead, partial revision of nodal arrangement near the new crack tip is carried out. A crack is modeled by the visibility criterion and dynamic energy release rate is evaluated to decide the onset of crack growth together with the corresponding growth angle. Mode I and mixed mode crack propagation problems are numerically simulated and the accuracy and stability of the proposed algorithm are successfully verified through the comparison with the analytical solutions and the Element-Free Galerkin method results.

Calibration of load-resistance factors for the limit state design of perforated caisson breakwaters are presented. Reliability analysis of 12 breakwaters in nationwide ports was conducted. Then, partial safety factors and load-resistance factors were sequentially calculated according to target reliability index. Load resistance factors were optimized to give one set of factor for limit state design of breakwater. The breakwaters were redesigned by using the optimal load resistance factor and verified whether reliability indices larger than the target value. Finally, some load-resistance factors were proposed by changing target reliability index.

버트리스 푸팅 케슨(Buttress footing caisson) 및 상형 푸팅 케슨의 역학특성을 해명하고 구조설계법을 검토할 목적으로 재하실험을 실시했다. 재하실험에는 배근의 제약등을 고려해서 실구조물의 1/4정도의 대형모형공시체를 사용해서 푸팅부를 중심으로 해석하기위해 푸팅에 선분포하중을 재하했다. 유한요소법에 따른 선형구조해석을 실시하여 변위, 단면력과 한계상황설계법에서의 산정식에서 얻어진 단면내력과를 비교하여 동설계법의 케슨구조물에 대한 적용성에 관하여 고찰했다. 이 보고로써 얻어진 주요한 결론은 아래와 같다. (1) 재하실험에 의하면 버트리스 푸팅공시체의 파괴형식은 버트리스부의 철근에 연한 부착할열파괴였다. 또 상형푸팅공시체에서는 푸팅부의 내면전단파괴였다. 양구조물을 설계할 때는 종래의 면외력만의 검토뿐아니라 면내력도 적절히 평가할 필요가 있다. (2) 양공시체 함께 푸팅 케슨본체와의 접합부 및 푸팅과 상자옆쪽의 벽과의 접합부에 변형이 일어나 종래의 판구조설계에서 가정하고 있는 판주변의 고정조건이 만족되지 않았다. 따라서 케슨구조물의 구조해석에서 구조전체계를 취급할 필요가 있고 부재단위에서는 단면력을 과대 또는 과소로 산정할 우려가 있다. (3) 철근강복시정도까지는 구조전체계를 모델화한 유한요소법에 의한 선형구조해석결과와 실험결과가 잘 일치했다. (4) 한계상태설계법에서의 굽음내력, 전단내력 및 구열폭의 산정식은 실험결과와 비교해서 어느쪽이나 안전측의 치를 부여했다.

Limit state design (LSD) and allowable stress design (ASD) are two main types of soil nailing design methodologies. In the LSD method, stability is determined by applying individual coefficients to ground strength, working load and etc. The ASD method calculates the safety factor and compares it with the minimum safety factor to determine the stability. The global design trend of soil nailing system is changing from the ASD method to the LSD method. The design method in Korea still adopts the ASD philosophy while others mostly do the limit state design. In this study, four soil nail design methods, 'FHWA GEC 7' in U.S. (2015), 'Clouterre' in France (1991), 'Soil nailing - best practice guidance' in U.K. (2005), 'Geoguide 7' in Hongkong (2008), and 'Design guide for slope in construction work' in Korea (2016) were applied to the evaluation of the stability and the results were analyzed comparatively in brief. It is revealed that the design method of 'the overall stability of soil nail walls' in Korea is the most conservative and next those by FHWA, Clouterre and CIRIA become more conservative in order. However, the difference of results obtained from FHWA and Clouterre is negligible. Also, this study found out that efforts to improve domestic design criterion are needed.

It is necessary to determine reliability indexes of existing railway bridges prior to setting up a proper target reliability index that can be used to introduce a reliability based limit state design method to design practice. Reliability is evaluated for a six PSC-I girder railway bridge, which is one of many representative types of double-track railway bridges. The reliability assessment is carried out for an edge girder subjected to bending moment. In the assessment, the flexural resistance and the fixed-load effect were obtained using existing statistical values from previous research on the introduction of limit state design to road bridge design. On the other hand, the live-load effect was determined using statistical values obtained from field measurement for the Joong-ang corridor, on which heavy freight trains are frequently passing. The reliability assessment is performed by AFOSM(Advanced First Order Second Moment method) for the limit state equation, and a sensitivity analysis for the reliability is performed for each factor of the load and resistance effects.

An efficient and accurate hybrid reliability analysis method is proposed in this paper to quantify the risk of an axially loaded single pile considering pile-soil interaction behavior and uncertainties in various design variables. The proposed method intelligently integrates the concepts of the response surface method, the finite difference method, the first-order reliability method, and the iterative linear interpolation scheme. The load transfer method is incorporated into the finite difference method for the deterministic analysis of a single pile-soil system. The uncertainties associated with load conditions, material and section properties of a pile and soil properties are explicitly considered. The risk corresponding to both serviceability limit state and strength limit state of the pile and soil is estimated. Applicability, accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method in the safety assessment of a realistic pile-soil system subjected to axial loads are verified by comparing it with the results of the Monte Carlo simulation technique.

Soil nailing method was often designed by the slope stability analysis based on limit equilibrium. However, in the case of shorten length of nails, although the calculated factor of safety is within the design factor of safety, the horizontal displacement of soil nailed walls occurred above the allowable limit. In this study, relationship between the load and factor of safety, and relationship between the load and displacement ratio based on the test results were analysed. From the analysed results, the relationship between factor of safety and displacement ratio was estimated. For the mobilized horizontal displacement of the walls within the serviceability limit corresponding to the displacement of less than 0.3% displacement ratio, the calculated factor of safety by limit equilibrium analysis had to satisfy above 1.35. Also, although the minimum factor of safety is estimated above 1.35, the maximum horizontal displacement is often mobilized above 0.3% of excavation height. Therefore, it is necessary to perform the numerical analysis of soil nailed walls in the case of low shear strength or high excavation.
