As the proportion of underground construction increases, the impact of inappropriate selection of a underground construction method for a construction size increases. The purpose of this study is to develop an objective way of selecting an excavation method. There have been several attempts to achieve the same goal using various data mining methods such as the artificial neural network, the support vector machine, and the case-based reasoning. However, they focused only on the selection of a retaining wall construction method out of six types of retaining walls. When we categorized an underground construction work into four groups and added more number of independent variables (i.e., more number of construction methods), the predictability decreased. As an alternative, we developed a decision tree by analyzing 25 earthwork cases with detailed information. We implemented the developed decision tree as a computer-supported program called Dr. underground and are still in the process of validating and revising the decision tree. This study is still in a preliminary stage and will be improved by collecting and analyzing more cases.

Since 1984, block-type reinforced earth wall with geogrid reinforcement has been widely used for retaining wall applications till now in Korea. The use of geogrid as a reinforcement in the reinforced earth wall is steadily increased in an amount over 1,500,000㎡ in a year However, still need exists that some problems in design and construction practices should be made to review, Therefore, this paper reviewed reasonable criteria for selection of backfills, design details considering the effect of the upper soil slope on reinforced earth wall, horizontal displacement of facing block during compaction, and the damage of geogrid reinforcements on the edge part of facing block. Finally, alternative methods of measures on those problems are proposed.

Permanent deformation plays a key role in performance based earthquake resistant design. In order to estimate permanent deformation after earthquake, it is essential to secure reliable response history analysis(RHA) as well as earthquake scenario. This study focuses on permanent deformation of an inverted T-type wall under earthquake. The study is composed of two separate parts. The first one is on the verification of RHA and the second one is on an effect of input earthquake motion. The former is discussed in this paper and the latter in the companion paper. The verification is conducted via geotechnical dynamic centrifuge test in prototype scale. Response of wall stem, ground motions behind the wall obtained from RHA matched pretty well with physical test performed under centrifugal acceleration of 50g. The rigorously verified RHA is used for parametric study to investigate an effect of input earthquake motion selection in the companion paper.

The objective of this study is to suggest the optimal method for reinforced earth retaining wall through the appropriate selection of reinforcing materials, development of design criteria. Thus, the efficient land utilization and securing safety in the train operation in service lines could be achieved. For this goal, a large scale shear laboratory test was carried out to evaluate the reinforced effect of earth body reinforced by attachment-type geogrid.

The size of the construction projects become huge and complex, and the depth of excavation for the underground structures become deeper. Also the working area is not enough for loading materials and temporary facilities. This is the most case of recent construction projects in downtown area. Top-down is the most useful method for this kind of construction projects. Top-down construction method consists of supporting method, retaining wall type, foundation type and construction direction such as up-down or up-up. construction managers have to select sub-elements for top-down construction method in planning phase. This study is to suggest the sub-elements selection model for the top-down construction method, and the case study is conducted for evaluating this model.

In the design of geotechnical structures, engineers choose either peak or critical state friction angles. Unfortunately, this selection is based on engineer's preference for economy or safety and lacks the assessment of the expected level of deformation. To fill this gap in the design process, this study proposes a strain based empirical method. Proposed method is founded on the experimentally supported assumption that higher dilatancy angles result in more brittle soil response. Using numerous triaxial test data on ten different soils, an empirical design chart is developed that allows the estimation of shear strain at failure based on soil's peak dilatancy angle and mean grain diameter. Developed empirical chart is verified by conducting a small scale retaining wall physical model test. Finally, a design methodology is proposed that makes the selection of design friction angle in structured way possible based on the serviceability limits of the proposed structure.

An advancing cutting roof for gob-side entry retaining with no-pillar mining under specific geological conditions is more conducive to the safe and efficient production in a coalmine. This method is being promoted for use in a large number of coalmines because it has many advantages compared to the retaining method with an artificial filling wall as the gateway side filling body. In order to observe the inner structure of the gateway cutting roof and understand its stability mechanism, an equivalent material simulation experiment for a coalmine with complex geological conditions was carried out in this study. The results show that a "self-stabilization bearing structure" equilibrium model was found after the cutting roof caving when the cut line deviation angle was unequal to zero and the cut height was greater than the mining height, and the caving roof rock was hard without damage. The model showed that its stability was mainly controlled by two key blocks. Furthermore, in order to determine the optimal parameters of the cut height and the cut line deviation angle for the cutting roof of the retaining gateway, an in-depth analysis with theoretical mechanics and mine rock mechanics of the model was performed, and the relationship between the roof balance control force and the cut height and cut line deviation angle was solved. It was found that the selection of the values of the cut height and the cut line deviation angle had to conform to a certain principle that it should not only utilize the support force provided by the coal wall and the contact surface of the two key blocks but also prevent the failure of the coal wall and the contact surface.

본 논문에서는 블록식 보강토 옹벽의 내진 설계/해석 개념을 고찰하고 현재 적용되고 있는 대표적인 설계기준이라고 할 수 있는 NCMA 및 FHWA 설계기준을 비교.분석하였다. 그 결과 NCMA와 FHWA 설계기준은 동일한 외적안정성 검토모형을 적용함에도 불구하고 지진계수 산정 기준의 차이로 인해 외적안정성 검토결과가 상이하게 나타나며, 전반적으로 FHWA 설계기준이 다소 보수적인 결과를 주는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, NCMA 설계기준에서 채택하고 있는 내적안정성 검토방법에 의하면 지진하중으로 인한 유발인장력의 증가 정도가 벽체 상단부로 갈수록 현저히 크게 나타나므로 상단부에서의 보강재 수를 증가시켜야할 뿐만 아니라 충분한 인발저항력 확보를 위해 정착길이를 증가시켜야 하나 FHWA 설계기준은 하단부 보강재에 동적하중을 재분배하는 모형을 채택하고 있으므로 NCMA 설계기준과는 상반된 결과를 도출하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 효율적인 설계기준의 개발을 위해 보다 종합적이고 체계적인 연구의 필요성을 제시하고 있다.

지난 10여 년간 건설 분야에서 데이터 마이닝(data mining) 기법을 이용하여 실적 데이터의 패턴을 찾고 이를 바탕으로 다양한 예측 모델을 개발하려는 연구들이 다수 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 데이터 마이닝 기법의 경우, 일반적으로 수천 또는 수만 개의 데이터를 사용할 것을 추천하고 있으나, 건설 분야의 선행연구들을 살펴보면 데이터 마이닝에 사용된 데이터의 수가 최대 이백 개 표본 정도에 그치고 있다. 그 결과 데이터 마이닝 기법을 이용하여 선행연구의 방법 및 결과를 재현하려고 하여도 같은 결과를 얻기 힘들고, 아예 패턴추출이 힘들거나 도출된 패턴에 오류가 있는 경우도 있다. 본 연구는 소수의 표본수에 기초하여 보다 신뢰성 있는 공법선정 모델의 개발에 관한 대안적인 방법을 모색하고자 한다. 먼저 건설 분야에서 데이터 마이닝 기법을 활용한 연구의 범위에 대해 살펴보고, 특히 흙막이 공법선정 모델 구축에 관한 선행연구 고찰을 통해 소수의 데이터에 의존함에 따라 발생하는 문제점들을 알아보고, 이를 극복할 수 있는 방안에 대해 논의 하고자 한다.

Isolation technology has been proven effective in reducing the seismic response of superstructures, where most of the deformation is concentrated in the isolation layer. However, in cases of earthquakes with intensities surpassing the fortification level of the area, or severe near-fault earthquakes, the isolation layer may experience excessive deformation, resulting in damage to the isolation bearings or collisions with the retaining wall or surrounding buildings. In this study, a finite element model using ABAQUS is established and compared with experimental test results to deeply investigate the influence of limit devices on the isolation layer and its response to the superstructure. The findings reveal that a larger limiter stiffness and a smaller reserved gap can achieve a more effective limiting effect. Nevertheless, a smaller reserved gap and a larger limiter stiffness may result in increased response of the superstructure. Therefore, rational selection of the reserved gap and limiter stiffness is crucial to reduce the acceleration response.
