  • Classical earth pressure theories normally assume that ground condition remains uniform for considerable distance from the wall, and that the movement of the wall is enough to result in the development of an active pressure distribution. In the case of many low gravity walls in cut, constructed, for example, by using gabions or cribs, this is not commonly the case. In strong ground a steep temporary face will be excavated for reasons of economy, and a thin wedge of backfill will be placed behind the wall following its construetion. A designer then has the difficulty of selecting appropriate soil parameters and a reasonable method of calculating the earth pressure on the w리1. This paper starts by reviewing the existing solutions applicable to such geometry. A new silo and a wedge methods are developed for static and dynamic cases, and the results obtained from these are compared with two experimental results which more correctly mod el the geometry and strength of the wall, the fill, and the soil condition. Conclusions are drawn concerning both the magnitute and distribution of earth pressures to be supported by such walls.

  • The analysis of Geotechnical stability problems by the limit equilibrium method involve assuming the shape of the failure and then investigating many surfaces of the shape to identify the one on which failure seems most likely to occur. These arbitrary assumptions most frequently concern to the locations or directions of side force on slice and the overall factor of safety is considered identical to the local factor of safety. In this paper, let the factor of safety of a slope at wedge block stage differently, when an upper part of the potential sliding mass has a simple active stress field and the lower part of the passive stress field and overall factor of safety is obtained by the average of local factor and computer program based on the modified wedge Method is proposed for this thesis. The new algorithm based on tile modified new method is made for estimating the safety factor of Earth Dam. Compared with conventional method for many cases tile average values of the factor of safety determined by the modified new method are very nearly the same. For all of the cases studied the difference was found 0.03. Finally this new method is thought to be very useful in slope stability analysis.

  • This thesis is an experimental and numerical research on bearing capacity acting retaining walls close to rigid slopes with stiff angles. Experiments were performed with changing the roughness of adjacent slope to the wall, its inclination, distance between wall and slope. Vertical stress and applied surcharge loads were measured by miniature earth cells and a load cel respectively. Stress distribution Vertical Settlement of surcharge load of rigid model footing were measured by LVDTs. Bearing capacities of surcharge loads were compared with theoretical estimations by using several different methods of limit equilibrium and numerical analysis. For limit equilibrium methods, the modified silo and the wedge theories, proposed by Chung sung gyo and Chung in gyo (1994) were used to analyze test results Based on those modified theories, the particular solution with the boundary condition of surcharge loads on the surface of backfill was obtained to find the stress distributions acting in the backfill and to compare with test results. From results of surcharge test with model wall being very close to the slope, analyzed results by the modified silo theory and to be in the better agreements than other methods.

  • 본 논문은 급경사의 강성사면에 인접한 역 T형 옹벽에 작용하는 상재하중에 의한 연직 토압분포에 관한 실험적 수치해석적 연구결과이다. 강성사면의 조도, 사면과 옹벽 사이의 거리, 중력수준을 변화시킨 원심모형실험을 실시하고 옹벽 뒷채움재에 토압계를 매설하여 연직토압을 측정하였다. 상재하중에 의한 연직토압 분포에 관한 실험 결과를 기존의 두가지의 한계평형 해석이론 및 수치해석 결과와 각각 비교 분석하였다. 정성교(1993, 1997)에 의하여 제시된 보완 사이로이론과 흙쐐기이론을 사용한 한계 평형 해석법을 사용하였으며 그 이론을 확장하여 옹벽 배면 뒷채움재에 작용하는 상재하중에 의한 연직토압분포에 대한 특별해를 구하였다. 수치해석에서는 쌍곡선모델의 흙의 구성관계식이 적용된 FLAC 프로그램을 사용하였다. 수치해석에 의한 토압분포 산정 결과 원심모형실험 결과와 대부분의 경우에서 서로 일치하는 반면에 흙쐐기이론에서는 사면과 옹벽의 거리가 가까운 경우에 한하여 비교적 일치하는 경향을 보였다.
