In this study, the runoff reduction effect was analyzed quantitatively focusing on the infiltration collector well located in the test area. On the basis of the analysis of the data obtained by examining the real-time measurement field data, the runoff reduction was examined through the measured rainfall of the year 2003 by applying the analysis result, with the PCSWMM model to the Kiheung-Gugal residential area, which is selected as the test basin. According to the analysis, it is revealed that an infiltration collector well can reduce up to $65\~98\%$ of runoffs, compared to a conventional one. For measured rainfalls, an infiltration collector well was able to reduce up to $15\~23\%$ of runoffs and $3\~25\%$ of peak runoffs. These results show that the effects of infiltration collector wells might vary with rainfall intensity and its duration. However, the infiltration collector well was confirmed as the one of the alternatives of runoff reduction facilities in urbanized catchment.

In order to investigate the performance of the infiltration collector well and its effect on the runoff reduction, real-time field measurements are carried out. Based on these field data measured at Seongnam, Osan and Cheongju sites, the runoff reduction volumes and the peaks-cut-rate are quantitatively analyzed and compared with the total rainfall amount, the 10min averaged and the 10min maximum rainfall intensity. This results show that the infiltration collector well is very effective to reduce the runoff in urban area, which gives environmentally the positive to supply ground waters. It is also presented that the infiltration collector well is able to reduce up to 70% of the runoff and 40~70% of peaks, compared to a general one.

This study examines the effect of collector well installed to reduce groundwater level in the regions with the occurrence of landcreep, a soil mass movement triggered by instability on slopes. Slopes are prone to failure as a result of instability caused by its internal, topographic and geological properties as well as due to external factors such as rainfall and earthquake. In Korea during the rain season, rainfall infiltration affects the groundwater level in soil, building up porewater pressure and load, and finally drives slopes to collapse. Slope failure caused by rainfall infiltration has been leading to a drastic forest degradation. The studied slope is located adjacent to a valley, its terrain corresponds to piedmont gentle slope, while the upper part of the failure surface is steep. After reinforcing the terrain where landcreep had occurred and installing collector well on the slope, we measured the changes in the groundwater level. In order to analyze the relationship between the well and the slope, we calculated the ratio of groundwater level to rainfall before and after the installation of the collector well. As a result, it is confirmed that the ratio increases after the installation of the well, which in turn reduces the groundwater level. Analysis of the change in groundwater level after 3, 7, 15 days antecedent rainfall showed that the higher the overall groundwater level, the less the value ($r_p$) of groundwater level-rainfall ratio is, while the value becomes relatively greater when the groundwater level is low. In particular, if a slope has a large catchment basin as is in the case of the studied site, antecedent rainfall affects groundwater level in the order of 3 < 7 < 15 days.

The main purpose of this study is to find the appropriate method to prevent the reduction of infiltration capacity due to sealing of soil surface. The study results indicate that installation of gravel or larger soil facilitates the drainage of infiltrated rainwater. However, considering that the infiltration capacity has been reduced since the installation, it seems that the sealing of soil surface is caused by the inflow of suspended soil into the lower sand layer. To promote the infiltration capacity by reducing the pounding of lower natural soil layer, the sand soil should be placed above the natural soil layer with shallow depth just below the larger gravel. Furthermore, the crust generated above the soil surface should be removed regularly and the sand layer above the natural soil layer should be replaced with new one so that the original infiltration capacity can be maintained properly.

최근 침투형 우수유출저감시설은 물 순환 및 초기우수관리 문제, 치수 목적으로 사용이 증대되고 있으며, 시설 확대를 위한 관련 법규나 기준이 강화되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 호우사상에 대한 침투통의 저감효과를 분석하여 우수유출저감시설로써 적용성과 치수효과를 검증하는데 그 목적이 있으며, 연구방법으로는 실제 호우사상에 대해 침투통의 현장계측을 이용하여 유출 저감율을 측정하고, 수문해석에 의해 저감효과를 분석하였다. 현장계측을 실시한 전주지역의 2005년 8월 2일 호우사상은 290.5mm를 나타냈으며, 이 강우량은 $\ulcorner$한국확률강우량도(한국건설기술연구원, 2000)$\lrcorner$에 의한 전주관측소 50년 빈도 24시간 확률강우량 287.7mm를 초과하는 값으로 분석되었다. 이 때, 총유출저감율은 약 56%로 측정되었으며, 유역특성이 비슷한 지역에서는 해당 강우량에 대해 유사한 저감효과를 나타낼 것으로 판단된다. HEC-HMS와 단위침투설계법을 이용하여 수문해석을 실시하였으며, 동일한 호우사상 자료를 적용한 결과, 총유출저감량은 20.64%, 최대 첨두유량은 6%의 저감율을 나타냈다. 향후 지속적인 모니터링과 첨두유량에 대한 연구가 보완되고 호우사상에 대한 계측자료가 추가로 확보된다면 호우사상에 대한 침투통의 치수효과를 정량화할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
