This paper presents quality and measure controls of Plastic Board Drains(PBD) for improvement of soft ground. Laboratory and field tests has been carried out to evaluate the quality of PBD focussing on : discharge capacity of flow area; permeability of filter sleeve; migration of fine particles; deformed shape of PBD; consolidation of clay in the close vicinity of PBD; tensile strength of PBD; long-term consolidation behavior of clay-PBD. Test results show that the quality of PBD is sufficient to perform the improvement of soft silty and clayey ground. But, geotechnical engineer must make efforts minimizings of PBD damage and ground disturbance, continuity of drainage system during construction. Adequate monitoring system should apply at ground focussing on number, location, and accuracy of geotechnical instrumentation, measurement and evaluation of data for ground behaviour.

본 연구에서는 콘관입속도가 콘관입시험 결과에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위하여 LSU/CALCHAS(Louisiana State University Calibration Chamber System)를 이용한 미니 Piezocone의 관입시험이 수행되었으며 그 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 10회의 미니 Piezocone 관입시험이 Ko 조건에서 수행되었으며 33% kaolin, 67% sand mixture가 시료로 사용되었고, 콘관입속도 0.3, 0.6cm/sec, U1(filter element at the cone tip), U2(filter element above the cone base), OCR=1, 10 의 조건이 다양하게 적용되었다. 시험결과 Cone Resistance, Excess Pore Water Pressure, Sleeve Friction 은 U1, U2 두 종류의 콘에 대해서 모두 관입속도가 커짐에 따라 증가하였으나 OCR의 증가에 따라서는 감소하였으며 U1의 Excess Pore Water Pressure가 U2 경우보다 크게 측정되었다.
