In the past decade, different types of underreamed ground anchors have been developed for substructures requiring uplift resistance. This article introduces a new type of umbrella-shaped anchor. The uplift behavior of this ground anchor in clay is studied through a series of laboratory and field uplift tests. The test results show that the umbrella-shaped anchor has higher uplift capacity than conventional anchors. The failure mode of the umbrella-shaped anchor in a large embedment depth can be characterized by an arc failure surface and the dimension of the plastic zone depends on the anchor diameter. The anchor diameter and embedment depth have significant influence on the uplift behavior. A finite element model is established to simulate the pullout of the ground anchor. A parametric study using this model is conducted to study the effects of the elastic modulus, cohesion, and friction angle of soils on the load-displacement relationship of the ground anchor. It is found that the larger the elastic modulus and the shear strength parameters, the higher the uplift capacity of the ground anchor. It is suggested that in engineering design, the soil with stiffer modulus and higher shear strength should be selected as the bearing stratum of this type of anchor.

For anchored system applications, each ground anchor is tested after installation and prior to being put into service to loads that exceed the design. This load testing methodology, combined with specific acceptance criteria, is used to verify that the ground anchor can carry the design load without excessive deformations and that the assumed load transfer mechanisms have been properly developed behind the assumed critical failure surface. After acceptance, the ground anchor is stressed to a specified load and the load is locked-off. The two types of load tests conducted during the research program included performance test and creep test which were carried out in accordance with testing procedures by AASHTO(AASHTO 1990) and FHWA(Weatherby 1998) at Samsung-Dong 00 Site. Form the measurements, ultimate load and creep rate of anchors are proposed for straight shaft pressured grouted anchors in waste landfill. The load distribution on the grout was obtained from the measured strain data at each fraction of the ultimate load during the load tests.

This case study has been prepared to provide the practical data about construction of temporary shoring facilities (i.e. braced sheet pile excavation) and to utilize the case study information effectively for design and construction of future facilities. This case study includes information such as 1) installing measurement devices to monitor the deformation of the sheet pile walls and the subsoil in the vicinity after establishing the criteria for the sheet pile deflection; 2) monitoring the actual movement of the temporary facility after setting up the survey control standard (due to the movement of the temporary facility) : 3) inspecting the suitability of the temporary facility construction: and 4) analyzing and studying the result of the tension test after installing ground anchors.

In deep excavations for creation of underground spaces, it would be difficult to predict earth pressure, especially multilayered ground including rock strata. The earth pressures and displacements on the retention walls are measured by load cell, strain gauge and inclinometer which were installed at struts or anchors at 4 deep excavation sites in Seoul area. In this paper, the measured earth pressure from the struts or anchors are compared with Peck's empirical values, and the coefficient of the earth pressures for each strata and horizontal wall displacement are investigated. The coefficient of earth pressure distribution, a(0.65zka), in the flexible and the rigid walls was about 74% and 88% of Peck's value respecitively. The measured earth pressure distributions for the 4 sites showed about 70%∼80% of Peck's empirical values and the average earth pressure coefficients based on the measured data were 0.3 for the felted layer, 0.23 for the weathered rock and 0.19 for the weak rock. The maximum w리1 displacements were found to be less 0.2% of excavation depth.

This study is an numerical study of predicting the behavior of anchor embedded in weathered rocks, subjected to uplift loads, about ultimate pullout capacity and the failure mechanism. Factors influencing the behavior of anchors were investigated by reviewing the data about in-situ anchor tests performing numerical modelling with changing the bondage length of anchor, diameter of anchor body and diameter of tenden, and by Correlations between those factors were evaluated to apply them to predict the behavior of anchors. As results of numerical analysis, a linear relationship between bondage length, diameter of anchor body and diameter of tenden with ultimate pullout capacity was obtained on the one hand, from the result of numerical analysis changing the Young's modulus of weathered rock, this parameter was found to inflence to load-displacement and ultimate pullout capacity within the range of 10%, which was mot so significant to affect.

Ground anchor should not be used in soft clay, because anchor resistance can not be guaranteed. However, there is a way to increase the capacity of anchors. The pulse powered anchor is an underreamed anchor by using high voltage electrokinetic pulse energy. In this paper, conceptual introduction of the pulse powered anchor was presented. Anchor pull-out tests were performed at the Geotechnical Experimentation Site at Sungkyunkwan University in Suwon, Korea. Data were analyzed in order to verify the performance of pulse powered anchors.

Ground anchor should not be used in soft clay, because anchor resistance can not be guaranteed. However, there is a way to increase the capacity of anchors. The anchor is an underreamed anchor by using high voltage electric discharge energy. In this study, a series of field test were carried out in order to find ultimate load of underreamed anchors in weathered soil at the new apartment construction site located in Inchon, Korea. Data were analyzed in order to define a relation between ultimate load and the number of electric discharge.

본 논문에서는 그라운드 앵커의 긴장력 손실에 대응하고자 긴장력 상시확인을 위한 앵커 긴장력 상시 육안확인장치에 대한 내용을 다루었다. 그라운드 앵커는 사회적 인프라 시설의 안정성을 확보하기 위해 시공되었지만 지속적인 긴장력 손실로 인해 시설물에 대한 안전이 심각하게 우려되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 앵커의 유지관리가 요구되지만 현재 잔존긴장력의 계측은 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 표본조사로 이루어지고 있어 정밀도에 대한 한계점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 앵커의 긴장력을 육안으로 확인할 수 있는 앵커 긴장력 상시 육안확인장치의 개발을 목적으로 개념설계, 실내 인장실험을 통한 규격화를 수행하였으며, 현장시험을 통해 성능을 확인하였다.

비탈면의 안정성 측면에서 파괴형태에 따라 예상 파괴면에서의 지반 전단력과 앵커보강에 의한 저항력은 중요한 요소로 작용할 수 있다. 또한, 앵커가 보강된 비탈면에서는 지압판이 설치된 지반의 풍화, 침하 및 불완전하게 방청 처리된 강연선의 부식 등으로 인하여 앵커축력이 변할 수 있다. 그러나 앵커 축력의 변화로 인해 국부적으로 앵커의 저항력을 상실한 경우에는 앵커가 저항력을 발휘하지 못하게 되어 주변 앵커로 외력이 전가되는 경향이 있으며, 이에 따라 주변앵커의 긴장력을 증가시키게 된다. 이로 인해 전체 비탈면의 안정성에 문제가 발생하게 되므로 주의가 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 비탈면에 설치되어 있는 앵커의 긴장력 변화경향을 모니터링하고 이를 고려한 비탈면 전체의 외적 안정성을 유추하는 방법을 제안하고자 하였다.

느슨한 사질토나 연약 점토층에서는 큰 앵커 극한인발력 확보가 어렵기 때문에 앵커공법이 잘 적용되지 않는다. 그러나 앵커 천공 홀을 다양한 방법으로 확공시키는 기술이 개발되어 있으며 이러한 기술로 인하여 느슨한 사질토 및 연약 점토에서 비교적 큰 극한인발력을 확보할 수 있게 되었다. 특히, 축적된 전기에너지를 짧은 시간에 방전시키는 펄스방전 공법은 앵커 정착장을 천공 케이싱 또는 비트 직경보다 크게 확공시키는 공법이다. 총 24공의 앵커를 성균관 대학교 지반시험장 풍화토 및 모래질 점토층에 시공하였다. 극한인발력과 앵커 확공비와의 관계를 확인하기 위해 AASHTO에서 규정하고 있는 시험방법으로 인발시험이 수행되었으며 펄스방전에 의해 확공된 앵커의 직경을 확인하기 위해 7공의 앵커를 굴착하였다.
