Sand drain as a vertical drainage is widely used in soft ground improvement. Recently, sand, the principal source of sand drain, is running out. The in-situ tests were carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. In-situ tests area was divided into two areas by material used. One is Sand Drain(SD) and Sand Compaction Pile(SCP) area, the other is Gravel Drain(GD) and Gravel Compaction Pile(GCP) area. Both areas were monitored to obtain the information on settlement, pore water pressure and bearing capacity by measuring instruments for stage loading caused by embankment. The results of measurements were analyzed, The clogging effect was checked at various depth in gravel column after the test. According to the test results, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel pile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. It is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material. Gravel is considered to be a better material than sand for bearing capacity, and it is found that bearing capacity is larger when gravel is used as a gravel compaction pile than as a gravel drain.

A laboratory model test was carried out to utilize gravel as a substitute for sand. Though which the characteristics of gravel are compared to those of sand for engineering purpose. According to the test, the settlement was found to be smaller in gravel drain than in sand drain. The increase in bearing capacity by gravel rile explains the result. The clogging effect was not found in gravel column. As a result, it is assumed that gravel is relatively acceptable as a drainage material. Gravel material seems better than sand material in bearing capacity and it is found that bearing capacity is larger when gravel is used as compaction pile than as drain from in-situ test on bearing capacity. Increase of bearing capacity with gravel pile means an effect of composite ground by stiffness of gravel material. It can lie supposed to use gravel pile instead of sand pile in view of consolidation effect and bearing capacity.

작은 입자 사이에 고립된 상태로 존재하는 굵은 입자는 비록 소량일지라도 흙의 전단거동에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이와같이 소량의 굵은 자갈이 포함된 지반의 전단특성을 평가할 경우, 실내시험에 사용되는 자갈의 크기와 공시체의 직경이 전단거동에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모래 입자 사이에 흩어져 있는 자갈의 크기와 공시체의 직경을 달리하면서 모래-자갈 혼합토의 전단특성을 연구하였다. 크기가 7, 12, 15, 18, 22mm인 다섯 종류의 자갈을 반복 사용하였으며, 각층 높이의 중간부분에 자갈을 넣고 다음 층을 쌓아 다지는 방식으로 조밀한 공시체를 완성하였다. 층당 들어가는 자갈의 크기에 따라 습윤모래를 5층 또는 10층으로 나누어 다져 직경 5cm(높이 10cm) 및 10cm(높이 20cm)인 공시체를 제작하였다. 자갈의 중량비는 3%로 동일하며 세 종류의 구속압으로 압밀시킨 다음, 비배수 삼축압축시험을 실시하였다. 직경 10cm인 공시체에서 얻은 최대축차응력은 직경 5cm인 공시체의 최대축차응력보다 자갈이 없는 경우 평균 30% 정도 높았으며, 자갈이 포함된 경우 최대 90%까지 증가하였다. 7mm와 12mm 자갈이 들어간 경우, 직경이 10cm인 공시체는 자갈의 크기에 관계없이 모두 자갈이 없는 경우보다 최대축차응력이 증가하였으나, 직경이 5cm인 공시체는 자갈의 크기에 따라 최대축차응력이 자갈이 없는 경우보다 증가하거나(7mm 자갈이 들어간 공시체) 또는 감소하였다(12mm 자갈이 들어간 공시체). 공시체 직경과 자갈의 크기가 비배수 전단거동에 큰 영향을 미쳤으며, 자갈과 공시체 직경의 비 1/5을 기준으로 자갈이 포함된 공시체의 최대축차응력이 자갈이 없는 경우보다 증가 또는 감소하였다.

A series of laboratory tests was carried out fur analyzing of seepage characteristics of two-layers embankment model which consists of gravel and earth fill layers. Gravel layers were built under the earth fill for a half and one-third width of earth fill of the model. Permeability of earth fill was ranged between $5.00\times10^{-5}\~3.00\times10^{-4}\;m/s$.. The tests were performed with hydraulic gradients(i), $0.10\~0.55$. From the test results, hydraulic head of earth fill with gravel layer was 1.6 times higher than that of earth fill without gravel layer. Seepage rate was increased up to $4\~22$ times and safety factor for piping was decreased to $13\~43\;\%$ comparing the earth fill with gravel layer to that without gravel layer. The gravel layer under the earth fill could, in general, give some serious seepage problems to seadike embankment.

본 연구에서는 자갈혼합률을 다르게 준비한 자갈-모래 혼합시료가 등방압밀 및 $K_0$-이방압밀 상태에서 나타나는 액상화거동에 대해서 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 자갈혼합률이 다른 자갈-모래 혼합토 공시체를 100kPa의 연직응력으로서 상대밀도가 40% 되도록 등방압밀 및 $K_0$-이방압밀 시킨 후 반복삼축시험을 수행하였다. 또한 자갈혼합률이 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%인 공시체에 100 kPa의 연직응력으로서 간극비가 0.7이 되도록 등방압밀 후 반복시험도 실시하였다. 시험결과 동일한 상대밀도(Dr=40%)를 가지는 자갈-모래 혼합토 공시체의 간극비는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 감소하다가 약 70%를 저점으로해서 다시 증가한다. 그러나 이 경계혼합률 이하에서는 자갈입자 사이를 채우고 있는 모래의 간극비는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 증가한다. 상대밀도가 일정한 (Dr=40%)등방압밀 공시체에 있어서 자갈혼합률이 비교적 낮은 경우(GC=0%, 20%, 40%)에는 반복하중에 의해서 일어나는 간극수압과 축변형률 거동이 비교적 높은 간극비로 인해서 느슨한 모래의 거동을 나타내나, 자갈혼합률이 높은 경우(GC=70%)에는 간극수압과 축변형률 거동이 조밀한 모래의 거동과 비슷한 경향을 보인다. 또한 간극비가 일정한(e=0.7) 등방압밀 공시체에 있어서 자갈혼합률이 높을수록 축변형률과 간극수압 거동은 느슨한 모래의 거동을 보이며 자갈혼합률이 낮을수록 축변형률 거동은 조밀한 모래의 거동을 나타낸다. 등방압밀 공시체의 액상화강도는 경계혼합률(GC=70%)이하의 범위에서는 상대밀도가 일정한 경우에는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 증가하며 간극비가 일정한 경우는 자갈혼합률이 증가할수록 감소한다. 따라서 자갈-모래 혼합토의 액상화강도는 예상과는 달리 자갈 입자 사이를 채우고 있는 모래의 상대밀도 보다는 혼합토의 전체적인 상대밀도 및 간극비에 의해서 결정된다는 사실이 확인되었다. $K_0$-이방압밀 공시체의 간극수압과 축변형률 거동은 반복응력이 어느 정도의 응력반전을 포함하고 있는데도 불구하고 응력반전이 없는 경우의 사질토의 거동을 나타낸다. 즉 응력반전량이 반복응력 진폭의 약 10%인데도 불구하고 반복변형률은 비슷하나 영구변형률이 크게 증가하며 또한 간극수압비는 1.0에 미달하여 초기액상화가 일어나지 않는다. 그리고 액상화강도는 자갈촌합률이 증가할수록 0%에서 40%까지의 범위에서는 증가하나 그 이상에서는 감소하는 경향을 보인다. 결론적으로 자갈-모래 혼합토의 반복거동은 자갈혼합량, 간극비, 상대밀도 그리고 압밀상태와 같은 요인에 의해 결정된다.

Recently, because of environment, cost, supply and demand factors, though applying sea-sand as horizontal drains is getting difficult that usage of Gravel has been growing in large size of construction sites, Study on engineering properties and behavior characteristics of Gravel stratum is not thoroughgoing enough. We have applied Gravel Mat as the horizontal drains in O O construction site. We also conducted several field tests such as Material property test, Geosynthetics damage test with Repeated load, Discharge capacity test performed by inflow of upper soil and In-situ PBD Penetration test to review the application of Gravel Mat. Test results show that Gravel Mat is not only advantageous in Trafficability and Water drainage by Consolidation due to its great Internal friction angle and Permeability, but also easy to penetrate with Mandrel and has great discharge capacity and guarantee of the stability against geosynthetics damage at the same time. With these benefits Gravel Mat shows great application in fields.

Self-compacting concrete is widely used around the globe today due to its special and unique properties. This study examines the effect of natural and crushed gravel combinations in different percentages in short-and long-term properties of concrete. The best utilized sand had a fineness modulus of 2.7. In the mentioned mix designs, silica fume was used with 0 and 7% of the weight of the cement. In order to check the properties of fresh and hardened concrete, 9 and 5 test types were performed, respectively. The carried out tests were slump flow, V-funnel, J-ring, L-box, U-box and column segregation for fresh concrete, and compressive, tensile and flexural strengths for hardened concrete. A mix with only 100% natural gravel was considered as the control mix. According to the results, the control mix design and the one containing 100% crushed gravel with silica fume were the best in fresh and hardened concrete tests, respectively. Finally, using the optimization method, a mix design with 25% natural gravel, 75% crushed gravel and silica fume was introduced as the best mix in terms of the results of both fresh and hardened concrete tests.
