In this study, piezocone coefficients of clays (Hwasung, Gunsan, Changwon, Busan) were analyzed from piezocone penetration tests those accompanied with vane shear and UU tests. Piezocone coefficients of west sea clays (Hwasung, Gunsan), i.e, N_kt is 12.6 and N_qu is 8.8, while those of south sea clays are 16.5 and 9.2 respectively. The difference of liquid limit between south and west clays causes main roles those which west sea clay is generally lower than 50%, i.e, CL, and liquid limit of south sea clay is mostly higher than 50%, i.e CH. Piezocone coefficients obtained from several tests show similar trends even though they still have some differences depending on each test. However, they show clear differences depending on liquid limit. Therefore, piezocone coefficients need to be used with caution depending on LL.

실내시험으로 구한 점토의 공학적 성질은 샘플링, 운반, 저장, 그리고 성형과정 동안에 발생하는 시료의 교란으로 인해 원지반의 성질과 다르게 측정된다. 본 연구에서는 양산점토에 대한 삼축압축시험($CK_{o}$ UC) 결과를 이용하여 샘플링 방법에 따른 교란의 정도를 평가하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 76mm 튜브샘플러, 76mm 피스톤샘플러, 블록샘플러로 채취되었으며, 시료의 교란정도를 평가하기 위해 각 시료에서 측정된 체적변형률, 비배수 전단강도, Secant Youngs modulus, 그리고 파괴시 간극수압계수를 비교하였다. 시료의 교란정도를 평가하는 것 이외에도 SHANSEP 방법을 이용하여 수행한 $CK_{o}$ U 삼축압축시험 결과를 이용하여 양산점토에 대한 정규화 전단강도($C_{u}$ /$\sigma$$_{vc}$ )와 OCR 관계를 규명하였다. 또, 피에조콘 관입시험, 딜라토메타 시험, 그리고 현장 베인시험결과를 이용하여 구한 양산점토의 비배수 전단강도를 삼축압축시험 결과와 비교하였다.

In the downstream areas of the Nakdong river, Pusan clays are commonly found and thickness may reach to maximum of 100m. From geological point of view, Pusan clay are characterized as holocene clays, deposited for approximately 20,000 years ago. Recently, there have been many construction projects based on these soft ground areas. It is needed to know clearly soil properties of the areas for design and safety analysis, especially undrained shear strength of soft clays. However, Pusan clay have not been studied systematically because the clay layers are usually very deep, having high sensitivity characteristic. In this study, undisturbed UD samples obtained from the downstream areas of the Nakdong river were researched using laboratory tests (CthUE, CKcUC, CIUC, UU and UC) and in-situ tests (Field Vane, CPTu). The undrained shear strength characteristics of the samples were depicted using stress-strain relationship.

국내외에 아직 적용 실적이 없는 발전소의 해수방류수를 이용한 조류식발전시스템의 개발을 위하여 하동화력발전소 방수로에 시험용 조류식 발전시스템을 설계 및 제작하여 현장시험이 진행 중이며, 이를 확장하여 상업용 발전을 위한 총 개발 규모를 산정하고 경제성을 분석하였다. 조류식발전구조물의 형상 설계, 가이드 베인을 이용한 출력 조정을 통하여 방수로의 수류상태를 적절히 조절하여 설계하는 것이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 조류식발전구조물 설치시 방수로의 수류특성 수치계산 결과로 판단할 때 발전출력에 의한 에너지 회수뿐만 아니라 조류식발전구조물의 단면축소 효과 및 수두손실이 방수로의 수위 변화에 상당한 규모로 영향을 주고 있음을 확인하였다. 조류식발전구조물 설치 이전의 유속 관측 결과를 이용하여 발전량을 산정한 경우 소수력발전 단가 적응시 경제성이 떨어지지만, 조류식발전시스템의 설치시 유속 증가 효과가 나타날 뿐만 아니라 가이드 베인 등을 이용하여 발전량 증대를 꾀하면 충분한 경제성을 확보할 수 있는 조류식발전시스템의 설치가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, a series of laboratory and in-situ tests such as FVTs and CPTUs were carried out to evaluate undrained shear strength related to quasi overconsolidated characteristics in the near-surface clay at Busan new port. Using unconfined compression and field vane test results, correlation between undrained shear strength and effective overburden pressure, that is, equation of $10+0.262{\sigma}^{\prime}v_0$ (kPa) was obtained. From oedometer tests, OCR is around 1.9 at depths lower than 7 m and OCR below this depth is very close to unit. As stated by Hanzawa et al. (1983), a natural clay deposit in the near-surface, even in normally consolidated state, is more and less apparently overconsolidated due to aging effects such as chemical bonding. Based on this concept, it can be inferred that intercept of equation is mobilized due to chemical bonding irrespective of effective overburden pressure and strength incremental ratio in normally consolidated state is 0.262. From CPTU results, same trend was confirmed. The further study should be necessary to judge whether upper clay is under overconsolidated state due to chemical bonding or not based on the depositional environment.

Spatial uncertainty of Busan marine clay ground, which commonly occurs during site investigation testing, data analysis and transformation modeling, has been described. In this paper geotechnical uncertainty of shear strength indicator $N_k$ has been quantified in both horizontal direction and vertical direction using geostatistical Kriging method. Most of soil data used are from 25 boring tests, 75 laboratory tests, 124 field vane tests and 25 cone penetration tests (CPT). CPT-$N_k$ data for undrained shear strength determination, which are the most important properties in geotechnical design stages, have been analysed. Comparison between cone factor from conventional CPT-based method and that of geostatistical method shows that geostatistical Kriging method is an ideal tool to quantify the spatial variability of uncertainty from self-correlation of soil property of interest, and can be recommended to identify the spatial distribution of consolidation .md shear strength of soils at any sites concerned.

The undrained strength of soils is open determined from the results of the piezocone penetration. The reliability of the value of the undrained strength lies on the cone factor value, whose evaluation needs a lot of experimental data and investigation for each site. In this study, the cone factors were evaluated for the northeastern part of Shiwha area in Gyunggi province using the experimental data of the field vane, unconfined compression, and UU triaxial compression tests. The values of the conventional cone factors $N_{kt}$, $N_{ke}$, $N_{{\Delta}u}$, and the new factor $N_e$ were determined to be 12, 11, 3, and 13, respectively. It was observed that there is a remarkable relationship between $N_{{\Delta}u}$ and the pore pressure ratio Bq.

In this study, various field and laboratory tests were performed to investigate the characteristics of shear strength and bearing behavior to be considered in the estimation of stability and trafficability in early stage of stabilization process in marine clay dredged deposit. Site characterization was carried out to grasp the basic properties of the deposit. Field vane test, unconfined compression test and direct shear test were conducted to evaluate the shear strength distribution for varied depths, and the characteristics of shear strength and stress-strain behavior of the crust layer. Plate load tests were also performed to estimate the bearing capacity and to assess load-settlement behavior and failure pattern of the deposit. The bearing capacity was also estimated using previously proposed methods for double-layered clay deposit. The estimated bearing capacity was compared with the results of the plate load tests and then, the applicability of the estimation method was discussed.

When carrying out design for soft ground improvement before reclamation of dredged soil, it is very important to appropriately evaluate design parameters such as compression index and undrained strength in order to estimate optimum construction cost. In this study, consolidation and strength parameters were estimated by the samples obtained from the similar reclaimed land. Water content and compression index of dredged soil reclaimed by hydraulic fill method were quite decreased in comparison with those of in-situ conditions at Incheon site. Relationships between compression index(Cc) and water content (wn), and between undrained strength (su) and water content (wn) for dredged soil were obtained by field vane test and oedometer test, respectively. Applicability of Schmertmann correction method (compression index) for low plasticity silty soil was discussed according to comparison with designed and measured settlements.
