Up to now, practical engineers applying simplicity value of rockfall block weight suggested in design manual without considering in-situ rockfall block weight which reflect joint characteristics. However, the size of rockfall block varies with joint spacing of discontinuities and influences over rockfall analysis results. In this paper, we estimate realistic rockfall block weight distribution using statistical invariances of joint spacing derived from scan-line survey result. And, we study whether this distribution is applicable in practical rockfall analysis directly. As the results of this study, rockfall analysis results that using rockfall block weight distribution estimated from scan-line survey show resonable and realistic outcomes.

In this study, we examined the applicability of three-dimensional electrical resistivity survey to detect underground cavities of ground subsidence area at the field test site, located at Yongweol-ri, Muan-gun in Korea. Underground cavities are widely present within the limesilicate bedrock overlain by the alluvial deposits in the area of the test site where the ground subsidences have occurred in the past. The limesilicate cavities are mostly filled with groundwater and clays in the test site. Thus, cavities have low electrical resistivity compared to the surrounding host bedrock. The results of the study have shown that the zones of low resistivity correspond to the zones of the cavities identified in the boreholes at the site, and that the three-dimensional electrical resistivity survey used are very effective to detect underground cavities.

We conducted geophysical surveys to detect antitank mine at Namji-eup, Gyeongsangnam-do which had been installed during Korean war. The surveys consisted of 2 stages, at the first stage we divided the survey area into 7 block and carried out magnetic gradient survey and GEM-3 EM survey sequentially for each block. Hence we verified anomaly areas using an excavator and a metal detector. Most of anomalies were found to be garbages such as trash cans, metallic wastes, and so on. And also, the concrete pipe was found at depth of 1 m, which had not referred in any report of that area. At the second stage, after trenching the covered soil down to 75 cm the same surveys were conducted. We could not find the strong signal to be inferred from a antitank mine, but we pointed out some anomalies to need careful handling because demining is very dangerous work even though there is few possibility that is mine.

Most of ground investigations can be grasped geological distribution which like rock name, geological structure, soil condition, underwater condition, land slide, ground cave-in, ground collapse by geological survey. But geological survey is limited to part region geological structure, not wide region. Therefore, Image Processing Method must need to grasp wide region geological structure. The object of this research is presented analysis data of geotechnical engineering in first step investigation.

In this study, Site Investigation Program of cut slope is developed using related techniques and experience got from practical application of Inventory Survey Program of cut slope in work for last 4 years. The Site Investigation Program is designed to can be loaded to the Mobile PC for convenience of carrying in filed, convenience of data input and revision, application of diverse programs, convenience of confirming data and facility of establishment of real-time database system using wireless communication like Inventory Survey Program. Also, for connection with Inventory Survey Program, it has a same work process and can establish real-time database system of almost data obtained in filed using stability analysis tool loaded in this program. Application of this developed program is expected to be an opportunity that can contribute to development of slope investigation and database system area using IT techniques.

Geotechnical sites in urban areas may have embedded structures such as utility lines and underground concrete structures, which cause difficulties in site investigation. This study is a preliminary research to establish knowledge base for developing an optimal technique for site investigation in urban areas. Surface-wave method and resistivity survey, which are frequently adopted for non-destructive site-investigation for geotechnical sites, were investigated to characterize effects of adjacent structures. In case of surface wave method, patterns of wave propagation were investigated for typical sets of multi-layered geotechnical profiles by numerical simulation based on forward modeling theory and field experiments for small-size model tests and real-scale tests in the field. In case of resistivity survey, 3-D finite element analyses and field tests were performed to investigate effects of adjacent concrete structures. These theoretical and experimental researches for surface-wave method and resistivity survey resulted in establishing physical criteria to cause interference of adjacent structures in site investigation at urban areas.

Causes of the levee collapse are directly or indirectly associated with geotechnical engineering as well as hydraulics. In this paper, literature survey and analysis were conducted to present the alternatives in geotechnical engineering issues for rational levee design. The alternatives include the reasonable river-bed soil utilization and precautions of numerical analysis and slope stability analysis, disruption type and improvement method of drainage facility.

Marine clays are soft soil deposits having complicated mineralogy and formation characteristics. Thus, characterization of its geotechnical behavior has been a main issue for geotechnical engineers. Nowadays, the importance and applications of geophysical exploration on marine clays are increasing significantly according to the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of geophysical survey technology. For marine clays, seismic survey is effective for density and elasticity characterization, while electro-magnetic wave provides the information about the fluid conductivity phenomena inside soil. For practical applications, elastic wave technology can evaluate the consolidation state of natural marine clay layers and estimate important geotechnical engineering parameters of artificially reclaimed marine deposits. Electrical resistivity can provide geophysical characteristics such as particle cementation, pore geometry shape, and pore material phase condition. Furthermore, nondestructive geophysical monitoring is applicable for risk management and efficiency enhancement during natural methane gas extraction from gas hydrate-bearing sediments.

Techniques for more reliable detection of 3D subsurface flow paths are highly important for most water-related geotechnical projects. In this case study, a magnetometric resistivity method with a new approach and state-of-the-art technology ("Willowstick survey") was applied to the testbed dam (YD dam) site, and its applicability was validated by geotechnical investigation techniques including borehole drilling and sampling, Lugeon test, flow direction and velocity test, and seismic tomography. In addition to the magnetometric survey, a 3D electrical resistivity survey was performed independently and the results were compared and discussed. The electrical resistivity survey was effective in detecting groundwater levels, but it was limited in mapping leakage paths. On the other hand, the Willowstick magnetometric survey effectively detected geologic weaknesses (e.g., fault fracture) and potential leakage paths of the dam site foundation rocks. The results of this research are expected to be effective for water infrastructures where leakage is an important issue.
