본 연구에서는 동재하시험을 통해 매입공법으로 선단이 암반에 근입된 초고강도 PHC 말뚝의 지지력 특성을 분석하였다. 초고강도 PHC 말뚝은 일반 고강도 PHC 말뚝에 비해 콘크리트의 강도가 높아 허용구조내력을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 초고강도 PHC 말뚝의 최적 설계를 위해서는 지반지지력도 증가된 구조내력과 균형을 맞출 수 있도록 증가되어야 할 것이다. 오늘날, 지반지지력 검증을 위한 동재하시험 시 경험적으로 고강도 PHC 말뚝과 유사한 항타에너지를 초고강도 PHC 말뚝에 적용하고 있는 실정이다. 동재하시험 결과를 기반으로 초고강도 PHC 말뚝의 지지력에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 분석한 결과, 선단지지력에 대해 선단 주변지반의 표준관입시험 N값의 영향은 미미하였으며, 항타에너지가 증가할수록 선단지지력이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 주면마찰력의 경우, 항타에너지의 증가에 따른 변화가 나타나지 않았다. 또한, 허용지지력을 판단하는 Restrike 시험시 선단지지력의 영향은 극히 작아 허용지지력 판단시 합리적인 방안이 필요하다.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of the GHP system with 150 energy piles for a commercial building. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of a sustainable performance of the system, simulations were conducted over 1-year and 20-year periods, respectively. The 1-year simulation results showed that the maximum and minimum temperatures of brine returning from the energy piles were $23.80^{\circ}C$ and $7.90^{\circ}C$, which were in a range of design target temperatures. In addition, after 20 years' operation, these returning temperatures decreased slowly to $23.05^{\circ}C$ and $6.98^{\circ}C$, and finally reached to stable state. The results also showed that the energy piles injected heat of 65.6 MWh to the ground and extracted heat of 96.0 MWh from the ground, respectively. Also, it is expected this GHP system with energy piles can operate with average SPF of more than 4.15 for long term.

A ground-loop heat exchanger for the ground source heat pump system is the core equipment determining the thermal performance and initial cost of the system. The size and performance of the heat exchanger is highly dependent on the ground thermal properties - the ground effective thermal conductivity, the borehole thermal resistance and the undisturbed ground temperature. Nowadays, precast concrete piles using steel reinforced precast concrete piles - energy piles - are used to reduce the installing cost of the ground-loop heat exchanger. We were carried out some tests to investigate the effects of some parameters such as borehole length, grouting materials and U-tube configuration of the energy piles. 4 concrete piles, each measuring $250mm{\sim}400mm$ in diameter and approx. 10m in length, and rigged with single spiral and 3 U-tube loop of $16mm{\times}2.3mm$ PB piping. The thermal response tests were conducted using a testing device for 4-different ground-loop heat exchangers. During the heating period, the energy piles absorb the heat of 0.89kW to 1.37kW.

최근 들어 경제적인 지열에너지 활용을 위하여 에너지 파일의 적용이 확대되고 있다. 특히 더 높은 열 교환 효율을 확보하고자 에너지 파일의 경우 보다 높은 열효율을 얻기 위해 통상적인 U자형 지중 열교환기가 아닌 코일형 지중열교환기를 매입하는 경우가 늘어나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PHC 에너지 파일에 의한 지중 열 전달 거동에 대한 수치해석 및 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 화강풍화토로 이루어진 현장에 PHC 에너지 파일을 설치하고 W자형과 코일형 지중 열교환기를 설치한 후 이에 대한 현장 열성능 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하여 지중온도 및 지중 열교환기 내 순환수 온도 변화를 예측하였고 이를 실험값과 비교하였다. 냉방 부분 가동 조건 하에서 코일형 열교환기 이용시 W자형을 이용했을 때보다 10~15% 열교환율이 상승되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

에너지파일은 기존의 수직밀폐형 지중열교환기를 경제적으로 대체할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 지중열교환기이다. 즉, 에너지파일은 건물의 기초 구조물과 지중열교환기의 역할을 동시에 수행하는 에너지 구조체로서, 말뚝 기초 내부에 열교환 파이프를 삽입하고 파이프를 통해 유체를 순환시켜 지반과의 열교환을 유도한다. 본 연구에서는 병렬 U형(5쌍, 8쌍, 10쌍)의 열교환 파이프를 대구경 현장타설 에너지파일에 삽입하여, 3본의 에너지파일을 실규모로 시공하였다. 또한 현장 열응답 시험(In-situ thermal response tests, TRTs)을 수행하고 시공된 현장타설 에너지파일과의 열교환 효율을 비교하기 위하여 30m 깊이의 수직밀폐형 지중열교환기를 별도로 시공하였다. 병렬 U형 현장타설 에너지파일에 대해서는 냉난방 부하를 인공적으로 주입하는 열교환 성능 평가시험을 수행하여 열교환 성능(heat exchange rate)을 평가하였다. 마지막으로 현장타설 에너지파일의 적용성 평가를 위해 산정된 상대 열교환 효율(relative heat exchange efficiency) 및 열교환 성능을 선행 연구 결과와 비교하였으며, 본 연구에서 시공된 현장타설 에너지파일은 안정적이고 효율적인 열성능을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

Based on the eigenfunction expansion method, the wave-absorbing performance of a square or circular pile breakwater was investigated. Flow separation resulting from sudden contraction and expansion is generated and is the main cause of significant energy loss. Therefore, evaluation of an exact energy loss coefficient is critical to enhancing the reliability of the mathematical model. To obtain the energy loss coefficient, 2-dimensional turbulent flow is analyzed using the FLUENT commercial code, and the energy loss coefficient can be obtained from the pressure difference between upstream and downstream. It was found that energy loss coefficient of circular pile is 20% that of a square pile. To validate the fitting equation for the energy loss coefficient, comparison between the analytical results and the experimental results (Kakuno and Liu, 1993) was made for square and circular piles with good agreement. The array of square piles also provides better wave-absorbing efficiency than the circular piles, and the optimal porosity value is near P=0.1.

The performance of a hammer/driving systems is a major factor which affects bearing capacity and integrity of installed piles. Hammer performance can be evaluated from the results of dynamic pile testing using Pile Driving Analyzer(PDA). By comparing the rated energy with measured maximum transferred energy(EMX), the energy transfer ratio(ETR) can be calculated. This paper based on the dynamic measurements of 442 cases in 130 piling projects and evaluated ETR according to the hammer types(hydraulic and drop hammers) and pile types(steel and concrete piles).

Lightweight concrete (LWC) provides an attractive alternative to conventional piles by improving the durability of deep foundations. In this paper, the drivability of cylindrical and tapered piles made of lightweight and common concrete (CC) under hammer impacts was investigated by performing field tests and numerical analysis. The different concrete mixtures were considered to compare the mechanical properties of light aggregate which replaced instead of the natural aggregate. Driving tests were also conducted on different piles to determine how the pile material and geometric configurations affect driving performance. The results indicated that the tapering shape has an appropriate effect on the drivability of piles and although lower driving stresses are induced in the LWC tapered pile, their final penetration rate was more than that of CC cylindrical pile under hammer impact. Also by analyzing wave propagation in the different rods, it was concluded that the LWC piles with greater velocity than others had better performance in pile driving phenomena. Furthermore, LWC piles can be driven more easily into the ground than cylindrical concrete piles sometimes up to 50% lower hammer impacts and results in important energy saving.

The utilization of buildings can be improved by extending them vertically. However, the added load of the extension might require building foundations to be underpinned; otherwise, the loads on the foundations might exceed their bearing capacity. In this study, a preloading method was presented aiming at transferring partial loads from existing piles to underpinning piles. A pneumatic-type model preloading device was developed and used to carry out centrifuge experiments to evaluate the load-displacement behavior of piles, the pile-soil interaction during preloading, and the additional loading caused by vertical extension. The results showed that the preloading devices effectively transfer load from existing piles to underpinning piles. In the additional loading test of group piles, the load-sharing ratio of a pile increased with its stiffness. The load-sharing ratio of a preloaded micropile was less than that of a non-preloaded micropile as a result of the reduction in axial stiffness caused by preloading before additional loading. Therefore, a slight reduction of the load-sharing capacity of an underpinning pile should be considered if the preloading method is applied. Further, two full scale preloading devices was developed. The devices preload underpinning piles and thereby produce reaction forces on a reaction frame to jack existing piles upward, thus transferring load from the existing piles to the underpinning piles. Specifically, screw-type and hydraulic-jack type devices were developed for the practical application of foundation underpinning during vertical extension, and their operability and load transfer effect verified via full-scale structural experiments.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of the GHP system with 45 cast-in-place energy piles(CEP) for a commercial building. In order to demonstrate the feasibility of a sustainable performance of the system, transient simulations were conducted over 1-year and 20-year periods, respectively. The 1-year simulation results showed that the maximum and minimum temperatures of brine returning from the CEPs were $23.91^{\circ}C$ and $6.66^{\circ}C$, which were in a range of design target temperatures. In addition, after 20 years' operation, these returning temperatures decreased to $21.24^{\circ}C$ and $3.68^{\circ}C$, and finally reached to stable state. Annual average extraction heat of cast-in-place energy piles was 94.3 MWh and injection heat was 65.7 MWh from the 20 years of simulation results. Finally, it is expected this GHP system can operate with average heating SPF of more than 3.45 for long-term.
