Consolidation properties of Shihwa deposits were analysed by means of depositional environments. Depositional environments including particle size distributions, sediment structures, geochemical properties, porewater chemistries and carbon age dating were analysed using undisturbed samples retrieved successively from a boring hole in the study area. Laboratory oedometer tests and anisotropic consolidated triaxial tests (CKoUC) for undisturbed samples were performed to examine the overconsolidation phenomena. Based on the results of analysis of depositional environments, it was found that the upper silt/clay mixed layer was deposited under marine condition while underlying sand and clay layers were deposited under fluvial condition. Planar laminated structures of silts and clays were dominant in marine deposits. Although there was no clear evidences that geological erosion had occurred in marine deposits, overconsolidation ratios of the upper marine samples were greater than unity Stress Paths of the upper marine samples behaved similarly to those of normally consolidated clays. Data plotted in stress state charts showed that the marine deposits were normally consolidated in geological meaning. These apparent overconsolidation of the marine deposits can be explained by the structures i.e. chemical bonding due to the difference of the rate of deposition, not by geological erosions and ground water fluctuations.

This experiment was carried out to establish the system of mass propagation through tissue culture using sucker and stem in Ramie. The sterilization for tissue culture of Ramie was the better treatment of 2% NaClO for 20 minute into ultrasonic cleaner than the others, and so rate of contamination was 3.3%, and it was able to produce 96% healthy plant. The effect of growth regulator was superior to mixed treatment of 0.02mg/$\ell$ NAA, 1.5mg/$\ell$ BA, 0.lmgmg/$\ell$ GA$_3$, which it was not formed callus and but produced 96% healthy plant. The effect of propagation was higher in culturing of the stem node than the sucker in cultural part, local variety than improved ones. The effect of acclimatization was superior to pretreatment of 30 minute after soaking in 100ppm NAA, transplanting on bed soil which mixed to ratio of vermiculite : soil : sand =1 : 2 : 1, the transplanted plants were grown all normal.

A measurement system of tri-axial pressure was designed and constructed to measure permeability and resistivity under changing confining pressure. The system was designed to measure the permeability and resistivity of a core simultaneously, consisting of tri-axial supporting device and sets of dual-flow measurement. In this measurement system the permeability and resistivity of a sample can be directly measured and porosity can be obtained using Archie's laws. As for physical properties, artificial core samples are made from mixtures of standard commercial sand and mud of illite. In-situ sediment cores were sampled at the water-depth of 1,800m in the Ulleung Basin East Sea. In order to investigate the effects of confining pressure changes on physical properties, permeability and resistivity changes were monitored with increasing confining pressure. In this study, it was found that with the increase of confining pressure, permeability and porosity tend to decrease and resistivity tend to increase exponentially.

This study investigated to recycle ash produced in the sewage sludge incinerator using reduction/stabilization. Nonsintering process was performed by binding cement, geobond and sand mixed with sewage sludge ash (SSA). Results showed that unconfined compressive strength could be obtained components of sewage sludge ash. it exceeded more than double score of the 22.54 Mpa ($229.7kg/cm^2$) Korean standard. chemical ingradients of the sewage sludge ash was mainly composed of $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $Fe_2O_3$, CaO and others, which were similar to those of the each binders consisting cement and geobond. microstructure of solidified speceimen for the different admixture was related to the compressive strength according to SEM analysis. optimum mixing range of the sewage sludge ash to inorganic binder was found to be 10~40% which can widly safely regulate the confined compressive strength. This study revealed the sewage sludge ash can be partial replacement of the inorganic binder for recycling.

The waste concrete produced by the process of the highway construction and management, has been crushed in-situ, and the waste aggregate has been experimentally used for anti-freezing layer and lean concrete. After testing the bearing capacity on anti-freezing layer, it was found that when the waste aggregates mixed with natural sand would be within the required gradations, the layer meets the requirements of limitation and the percentage to passing 2$\sim$20mm sieve increased by 5$\sim$13% because the flimsy mortars on aggregate were re-crushed by vibrated-roller compactor. The compressive strength of lean concrete using recycled aggregate was 71$\sim$85% of the natural coarce aggregate made, but nevertheless the recycled aggregates are applicable to the lean concrete because they largely exceeded the required strength, $57.5kgf/cm^2$.

It is generally accepted that organic materials are a significant factor on the soil aggregation formation but little information exists on how the formation and stabilization of aggregates in reclaimed tidelands. In this work, the effects of organic materials on the soil aggregate formation in reclaimed tidelands were determined. The soil was treated with 5 cm-size chopped fresh italian ryegrass residues (fresh organic material), commercial livestock compost with swine manure and sawdust (by product fertilizer), and fresh organic material + by product fertilizer (1 : 1 w/w) after ploughing at 20 cm soil depth. The three organic materials applied $2,000kg\;10a^{-1}$ every year. Water stable aggregate was estimated by wet-sieving method. Three years after the beginning of the experiment, water stable aggregate rate and MWD (mean weight diameter) were higher fresh organic material treatment than two other treatments. For improvement of physical property and structure of soil in reclaimed tidelands, fresh organic material treatment was more suitable than two other treatments.

To examine the effects of gibberelin treatment on seed germination of five Viola species - Viola variegata, Viola dissecta var, chaerophylloides, Viola collina, Viola hirtipes and Viola manshrica - in Wonju district, pretreated seeds of five species were sowed on Jiffy strips with mixed soil(sand： peat moss： perlite： vermiculite, 1:1:1:1, v/v) in 25, May 1994. Seeds were soaked in 5, 25, 50ppm gibberelin solution and ground water during 24 hours. Seed germination rate was measured and compared among species and treatments. Seed germination rate of Viola hirtipes was differed higly significant among pretreatments, but those of other species did not significant at 5of level. In general GA$_3$pretreatment raised seed germination rate of 5 Viola species, and proper concentration of GA$_3$was 25~50ppm.

The main intent of this research was to determine the feasibility of utilizing recycling bottom ash as CLSM (controlled low-strength material). CLSM is a cementitious material, commonly a blend of portland cement, fly ash, sand, and water, that is usually flowable and self-leveling at the time of placement. The durability characteristics of mixtures made bottom ash we compared with those of fly ash CLSM in order to evaluate the effectiveness and suitability of bottom ash as material in CLSM. A comprehensive evaluation of the bottom ash in CLSM and mix proportions indicated that the bottom ash are capable of performing as CLSM mixtures. The durability characteristic of CLSM incorporating the bottom ash under various physical and chemical causes of deterioration were investigated. Test results indicated that CLSM using bottom ash has acceptable durability performance. CLSM incorporating with bottom ash were also found to be environmentally safe.

This paper presents the results of a reduced-scale physical model investigation into the effect of drilling fluid with different mix designs for use in offshore bore hole collapse prevention. Compare the bentonite and Attapulgite use. Reduced-scale model tests were then carried out considering field procedures for cases with decomposed granitic soil with fines and a sand with various drilling fluids with different mix designs. The results were indicated that the addition of polymer to the bentonite based drilling fluid decreases the amount of injected drilling fluid and increases the final depth of excavation. Also revealed that the effect of polymer on the performance of drilling fluid is more pronounced in the decomposed granite soil with fines than sand. Practical implications of the findings from this study are discussed in detail.

To look over the effect of mixed proportion of cement, sand and water on strength, 162 tests were made for 9 mix proportions. It was observed that strength increased as water in the mixture is reduced. As a result of the control of sand ratio by 50%, the execution strength increased when the sand ratio is raised. Strength was consistent during curing period on each mix proportion, but there were sections where it suddenly increased. Poisson's ratio widely ranged from 0.13 to 0.27, and Young's modulus also broadly ranged from 13.79MPa to 33.25MPa. Poisson's ratio had nothing to do with uniaxial compressive strength, wheras Young's modulus was concerned with it. Young's modulus from theory and experiment showed similar outcome on the 3rd curing day, however, the strength from theory was higher than that from test after 3rd day. In consequence, there was a great change of strength between 3rd and 7th curing day. In addition, it is more efficient to use field strength value between the 3rd and 7th day and to apply Young's modulus on it for determining the exact time.
