일반적으로 각종 구조물 등의 침하 또는 안정성 검토 등에 사용하는 지반조사 및 결과분석은 사질토와 점성토에 따라 다르며, 세립토의 경우 주로 흙의 컨시스턴시를 이용하여 지반의 물리적 특성과 흙 분류, 공학적 거동을 평가하고 있다. 가장 일반적으로 액성한계를 분석하는 방법은 Casagrande로 비교적 간단하게 액성한계를 구할 수 있으나 사질토를 함유한 중간적인 성질을 가지는 흙에 적용하기에는 많은 어려움이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 점토의 액·소성한계를 가지고 압축지수를 추정할 때 세립분 함유율에 따라 액성한계치를 수정하는 방안을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위해 사질토를 함유한 중간토의 특성을 고려하여 양산, 광양, 부산지역의 점토와 사질토를 혼합한 중간토를 제작하여 컨시스턴시 한계시험을 수행하였으며, 컨시스턴시 보정 제안식을 활용하여 적용성 평가를 하였다. 중간토는 점토와 사질토의 혼합시료로써 중간토 제작을 위해 세립토 함유율(F_c)을 50%, 75%, 100%를 적용하였다. 중간토는 자연 상태의 점토 특성을 재현하기 위해 벤토나이트를 일정 비율로 혼합하여 시료를 성형 한 다음 물리적 특성 시험 및 컨시스턴시 시험을 수행하였으며, 기존 연구에서 제안된 컨시스턴시 보정식과 실험에 의한 컨시스턴시 결과치를 비교·분석하였다. 또한, 현장에서 채취한 시료의 컨시스턴시와 보정 제안식에 의해 수정된 컨시스턴시를 비교·분석하고, 보정된 컨시스턴시 값을 적용하여 사질토가 함유된 중간토의 압축지수 등 공학적 특성을 비교·분석함으로써 제안식의 적용성을 평가하였다.

Land information is important for the international agricultural companies. This study investigated the agriculture and soil information in Sri Lanka. This study is the results from investigation of soil properties and agricultural properties determined by the Soil Taxonomy classification system for the soils in Sri Lanka. The order of the main agricultural imports in Sri Lanka was wheat > refined Sugar > dry Onion > Rice > Lentils. The climate of Sri Lanka is divided into three climatic zones. There are a wet zone, an intermediate zone, and a dry zone. Rainfall of the wet zone was $3,000-5,000mm\;year^{-1}$. The rainfall of the dry zone was less than $1,000m^{-1}$. The intermediate zone was in the middle area. Soil series of Sri Lanka were 109 in total. Detailed information of soil series was: 6 of soil Orders, 15 of Suborders, 39 of Great groups, and 56 of Subgroups. Soil texture of topsoil was much more coarse, but subsoil was gravelly coarse soil. Soil of Sri Lanka was classified as a Soil Order. The orders were Entisols > Alfisols > Ultisols > Inceptisols > Histosols > Vertisols.

Hemoglobin (Hb) is a member of heme-protein that can perform catalytic non-specific chain reaction in the presence of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$). Catalytic ability of Hb to degrade pyrene was demonstrated using soil contaminated with $^{14}C$ pyrene and 10 mg pyrene /kg soil. The composition of soil was similar to previously used soil except that it had lower organic carbon content. Bench scale laboratory tests were conducted in the presence of buffer only, $H_2O_2$ only, or Hb with $H_2O_2$ for 24 h. After 24 h reaction, 0.1 and 1.3% of $^{14}C$ pyrene in contaminated soil were mineralized with $H_2O_2$ only or Hb plus $H_2O_2$. No mineralization to $^{14}CO_2$ was detected with buffer only. Approximately 12.2% of pyrene was degraded in the presence of $H_2O_2$ only while 44.0% of pyrene was degraded in the presence of Hb plus $H_2O_2$ during 24 h of catalytic reaction. When degradation intermediate products were examined, two chemicals were observed in the presence of $H_2O_2$ only while 25 chemicals were found in the presence of Hb plus $H_2O_2$. While most degradation products were simple hydrocarbons, four of the 27 chemicals had aromatic rings. However, none of these four chemicals was structurally related to pyrene. These results suggest that Hb catalytic system could be used to treat pyrene-contaminated soil as an efficient and speedy remediation technology. In addition, intermediate products generated by this system are not greatly affected by composition change in soil organic matter content.

The effect of chemically oxidized intermediates of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds on the degradation of the parent PAHs was characterized and evaluated for the context of cooxidation. Anthracene and pyrene exhibited extensive degradation (mean percent removal of 57.5%) after 28 days of incubation by introducing the Fenton oxidation intermediate of the PAH compounds, while unoxidized anthracene and pyrene exhibited 12.5% removal The chemical oxidation products can serve as a structually similar analogue substrates for a consortia of soil microorganisms and as a metabolic intermediates in the biodegradation sequence of the parent PAH compounds. These results may be interpreted in the context of cooxidation mechanism whereby high recalcitrant PAH compounds are biodegraded in the soil and suggest a potential tool for bioremediation of PAHs contaminated soils and protection of groundwater.

The effect of chemically oxidized intermediated of PAH compounds on the degradation of the parent PAHs was characterized and evaluated for the context of cooxidation. Anthracene and pyrene exhibited extensive degradation (mean percent removal of 57.5%) after 28 days of incubation by introducing the Fenton oxidation intermediate of the PAH compounds, while unoxidized anthracene and pyrene exhibited 12.5% removal. Dehydrogenase activities for the oxidized PAH studies ware enhanced two to five folds to the unoxidized PAHs studies. The chemical oxidation products can serve as a structually very similar analogue substrates for a consortia of soil microorganisms and as a metabolic intermediates in the biodegradation sequence of the parent PAH compounds. These results may be interpreted in the context of cooxidation mechanism whereby high recalcitrant PAH compounds are biodegraded in the soil and suggest a potential tool for bioremediation of PAHs contaminated soils and protection of groundwater.

To suggest a modified shallow foundation design method which can be considered the scale effect of foundation on IGM(intermediate geomaterial) soil layer, the weathered soil layer that is uniformly formed up to 8m(2B) with over 50 N-value is selected and 3 times field loading tests are performed on several sized square-shaped shallow foundations with 30, 75, 150, 240 and 400cm in width respectively. Because the soil modulus of elasticity(Es) calculated by soil investigation and 1st field test(PBT) results showed an underestimated tendency, a modified correlation is required for the reasonable estimation of Es on the weathered soil. Also, the N-value was increased with an increasing in depth. However, the N-values around the test foundations showed the different values even though the foundations on the same level because the test site was arranged by excavation. Therefore, the more detail soil investigations are required for the each test foundations respectively. Since Es based on elasticity theory is determined by the stress distribution shape of the foundation and elasticity modulus of the soil, the scale effect considered pressure-settlement curve can be clearly derived from the correlation on stress distribution shape and the variation of soil elasticity modulus with depth. Therefore, the modified correlation will be suggested to estimate a reasonable Es on the weathered soil, and the scale effect considered shallow foundation design method is also developed based on the elastic theory and field tests in this research.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) have been analyzed to assess vertical distribution of them with different land uses. The soils were collected from three layers; surface $(0{\sim}5cm)$, intermediate $(6{\sim}10cm)$, and deep $(11{\sim}15cm)$ layer, respectively considering land use; paddy, upland, and mountain in each site. Total 89 samples of soil from 10 sites were analyzed. Overall mean of ${\sum}PAHs$ were 137 (range $8.87{\sim}625{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$), 203 (range $16.5{\sim}645{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$), and $83.4{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$ (range $6.65{\sim}667{\mu}g\;kg^{-1}$) for paddy, upland, and mountain soil, respectively. The dominant PAHs were fluoroanthene/benzo(b)fluoroanthene>pyrene>indeno(1, 2, 3-cd) pyrene in paddy, fluoroanthene/pyrene>benzo(b)fluoroanthene>chrysene in upland, and benzo(b)fluoroanthene>pyrene>chrysene in mountain soil, whereas the profile was quite similar for each other except that indeno(1, 2, 3-cd)pyrene and benzo(ghi)perylene are relatively higher in the paddy soils. Although the concentration gradient by depth was not observed in the paddy and upland soils because perturbation of soil layer by tillage, significant decrease was in the deep layer relative to the surface and intermediate layer. However, the concentration gradient of PAHs by soil depth was clearly shown in mountain soil without experiencing disturbance of tillage.

The problem of cylindrical cavity expansion incorporating deformation dependent of intermediate principal stress in rock or soil mass is investigated in the paper. Assumptions that the initial axial total strain is a non-zero constant and the axial plastic strain is not zero are defined to obtain the numerical solution of strain which incorporates deformation-dependent intermediate principal stress. The numerical solution of plastic strains are achieved by the 3-D plastic potential functions based on the M-C and generalized H-B failure criteria, respectively. The intermediate principal stress is derived with the Hook's law and plastic strains. Solution of limited expansion pressure, stress and strain during cylindrical cavity expanding are given and the corresponding calculation approaches are also presented, which the axial stress and strain are incorporated. Validation of the proposed approach is conducted by the published results.

This study was conducted to characterize groundwater and river-water fluctuations at a riverbank filtration site in Daesan-myeon adjacent to the Nakdong River, using time series analysis. Water levels from six observation wells from January 2003 to October 2003 were measured. The autocorrelation analysis indicates that the wells are divided into three groups: group 1 represents strong linearity and memory, group 2 intermediate linearity and memory, and group 3 weak linearity and memory. The analysis indicates that groundwater levels in different monitoring wells vary in response to river-water levels, groundwater withdrawal and seasonal rainfall. Cross-correlation was also divided into three groups. Group 1 shows the highest cross-correlation function (0.49 - 0.54) for a lag time of 0 hours, group 2 intermediate cross-correlation function (0.34 - 0.45), and group 3 the lowest cross-correlation function (0.23 - 0.25). Different cross-correlation functions among the 3 groups are interpreted as an effect of tile distance from the river to the pumping wells.
