준설토지반은 보통 연약지반에 비해 상당히 큰 압밀침하가 발생하기 때문에 압밀과정 중 층 두께의 변화가 크다. Mikasa는 층 두께의 변화를 고려하는 더욱 합리적인 압밀계산법을 연구 발표하였으나 아직 국내 현장에서 많이 활용되고 있지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 100%, 120%, 133%, 150%의 함수비를 갖는 준설토 지반에 대해 Rowe cell 압밀시험기를 이용한 시험을 수행하여 준설토의 압밀특성을 분석하였으며, 층 두께의 변화를 고려하지 않는 경우와 층 두께의 변화를 고려하는 경우 각각 압밀계수를 구하여 비교하였다. 또한 실제 현장 예를 상정하여 압밀기간을 구하여 보았는데, 그 결과 압밀기간은 층 두께의 변화를 고려한 Mikasa 이론의 경우가 그렇지 않은 Terzaghi이론의 경우보다 짧게 산정되었다. 그리고, 더욱 정확한 결과를 주는 Mikasa이론이 실용적으로 이용될 수 있도록 압밀계산법에 대해 자세히 언급하였다.

Applicability of hyperbolic settlement prediction method to consolidation settlement in the dredged and reclaimed ground was assessed by analyzing results of centrifuge tests modelling self-weight consolidation of soft marine clay. From literature review about self-weight consolidation of soft marine clays located in southern coast in Korea, constitutive relationships of void ratio - effective stress - permeability and typical self-weight consolidation curves with time were obtained by analyzing centrifuge model experiments. For the condition of surcharge loading, exact solution of consolidation settlement curve obtained by using Terzaghi's consolidation theory was compared with results predicted by the hyperbolic method. It was found to have its own inherent error to predict final consolidation settlement. From results of analyzing thc self-weight consolidation with time by using this method, it predicted relatively well in error range of 0.04~18% for the case of showing the linearity in the relationship between T vs T/S in the stage of consolidation degree of 60~90 %. However, it overestimated the final settlement with large errors if those relation curves were nonlinear.

The total embankment settlement consists of three stages: the initial settlement, the primary consolidation settlement, and the secondary consolidation settlement. The total embankment settlement is largely controlled by the primary consolidation settlement, which is usually computed with numerical models that implement Biot's theory of consolidation. The key parameter that affects the primary consolidation time is the coefficient of permeability. Due to the complex stress and strain states in the foundation soil under the embankment, to be able to predict the consolidation time more precisely, aside from porosity-dependency, the strain-dependency of the coefficient of permeability should be also taken into account in numerical analyses. In this paper, we propose a two-dimensional plane strain numerical model of embankment primary consolidation, which implements Biot's theory of consolidation with both porosity-dependent and strain-dependent coefficient of permeability. We perform several numerical simulations. First, we demonstrate the influence of the strain-dependent coefficient of permeability on the computed results. Next, we validate our numerical model by comparing computed results against in-situ measurements for two road embankments: one near the city of Saga, and the other near the city of Boston. Finally, we give our concluding remarks.

In order to integrate two consolidation theories of Terzaghi's consolidation theory and Mesri's secondary compression theory and to identify a model suitable for analyzing stress-strain behavior over time, numerical analysis on consolidation tests were conducted using a modified cam-clay model and a soft soil creep model and the following conclusions were obtained. The results of numerical analysis applying the theory that a linear proportional relationship is established between the void ratio at logarithmic scale and the permeability coefficient at logarithmic scale is better agreement with the result of oedometer test than the results of applying constant hydraulic conductivity. The modified cam-clay model is a model that does not include secondary compression, but the slope of the normal consolidation line corresponding to the compression index of the standard consolidation test includes secondary compression, so the actual settlement curve over time is lower than the predicted value through numerical analysis. It always gets smaller. Other previous studies that applied Terzaghi's consolidation theory to consolidation test analysis showed the same results and were cross-confirmed. The soft soil creep model, which includes secondary compression in the theory, showed good agreement in all sections including secondary compression in the consolidation test results. It was judged appropriate to use a soft soil creep model when performing numerical analysis of soft clay ground.

This research is to investigate the self-weight consolidation settlement and desiccation shrinkage settlement of soft marine dredging clay by performing numerical and experimental works. Large column test were carried out investigate the consolidation settlement considering effect of the self-weight and desiccation shrinkage, and centrifuge model test was also carried out investigate self-weight consolidation settlement. Results of centrifuge model and large column experiments about changes of settlement with time were analyzed by using the numerical technique of explicit finite difference method considering effect of the self-weight and desiccation based on the finite strain consolidation theory. Centrifuge model test results were in relatively good agreements with analyzed results in terms of self-weight consolidation settlement with time. Large column test results showed quite different values from the numerically estimated one, carried by experimental conditions.

Dredging and Reclamation which have been conducted steadily for creation of new coastal area have demerit that takes a long time. Hence, a lot of researches on acceleration of self-weight consolidation is proceeding continuously. In this paper, 30 cases of laboratory self-weight consolidation tests were conducted to understand application of PDF method, one of the self-weight consolidation acceleration methods, to domestic dredged soils. Acceleration effect of self-weight consolidation was confirmed through comparison and analysis on completion time and settlement of self-weight consolidation for none installed case and 4 kinds of common used PBD installed cases.

Vertical drains are commonly used to accelerate the consolidation process of soft soils, such as dredged materials. The installation of vertical drain provides a radial drainage path to water in the deposit soil in addition to the vertical direction. An estimation of time rate of settlement is considerably complicated when vertical drains are installed to enhance consolidation process of dredged material because the vertical drains are commonly installed before self-weight consolidation is ceased. In this paper, the vertical drain theory developed by Barron(1948) is applied to analyze the non-linear consolidation behavior considering radial drainage. The overall average degree of self-weight consolidation of the dredged soil under the condition that the water is drained in both radial and vertical directions is estimated using the Carillo(1942) formula. In addition, the Morris(2002) theory and the one-dimensional non-linear finite strain numerical model, PSDDF, are applied to analyze the self-weight consolidation in case of only the vertical drainage is considered. The new analysis approach proposed herein can simulate properly the time rate of the self-weight consolidation of dredged materials that is facilitated with vertical drains.

5가지의 토질을 대상으로 하여 심지배수가 존재하는 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우에 있어서 진공압밀실험을 실시하여 진공압밀에서의 시간에 따른 침하량을 측정하였다. 이에 앞서 기초실험을 통하여 토질의 특성을 파악하고 아울러 일차원 압밀실험을 행하여 심지배수가 존재하지 않은 경우의 진공압밀이 진행되는 동안 기존의 압밀 실험이 토질의 거동을 예측할 수 있는지를 검토하여 보았다. 본 연구결과 기존의 일차원 압밀실험은 심지배수가 존재하지 않는 경우의 진공압밀 실험과정을 예측하는데 부적절하였으나 최종침하량은 적절하게 예측하였음이 밝혀졌다. 진공압밀의 실험결과에서는, 실트질토에 있어서 심지배수의 존재가 압밀의 속도에는 커다란 영향을 미쳤으나 최종 침하량은 심지배수의 존재에 상관없이 동일하였음이 밝혀졌으며 심지배수의 존재는 시료의 깊이에 대해 함수비와 밀도를 일정하게 한다는 것은 규명되었으나 점토질토에서의 심지배수의 존재는 압밀의 속도 뿐만 아니라 최종침하량도 증가시킴이 밝혀졌다.

본 연구는 사전압밀재하공법에 의해 연약지반을 개량시 재하-제하-재재하와 같은 다양한 응력변화에 의한 2차압밀량을 추정하고자, 일정변형률 압밀시험기(CRS)를 응용한 일정재하시험장치(CLR)와 표준압밀시험기를 이용한 단계 재하시험(IL)에 의해 군산점토의 압밀특성을 비교 고찰하였다. 또한 CRS시험 후 임의 팽창시점에서 재재하시 유효과압밀비에 따른 2차압밀특성과 간극비-유효응력-시간관계 등을 파악하였다. 군산점토는 유효 과압밀비가 클수록 팽창량은 크고 2차압밀 침하량은 작게 발생하고 있으며, 일시에 하중 제거 후, 재하하는 경우에서 2차압밀계수 $C'_{\alpha}$ 는 완속제거시 보다 작게 평가되고, 유효 과압밀비가 1.4이상인 경우는 유사한 값을 제시하고 있다. 재재하시 발생되는 전체침하량을 기준으로 한 2차압밀계수 $C"_{\alpha}$는 경과시간에 따라 비선형적으로 증가하나 최종값은 급속제거시와 비교하여 유사한 값을 제시하고 있다. 간극비 변형속도는 재하시간이 증가할수록 유효 과압밀비에 관계없이 2개의 시험 모두 일정한 선형관계이고, 유효 과압밀비가 증가할수록 작게 나타나고 있다.고 있다.
