In this study, the full-scale laboratory model test on utilization of recycled aggregates and crushed stone as vertical drains to use an alternative material of sand in soft ground is performed. The settlement and pore water pressure were measured to evaluate the discharge capacity and filed application, and the results were compared and analyzed through the finite element method. The measured and estimated settlement in all vertical drain materials decreases gradually with the load increase. The measured settlement 6.55~8.63 mm, and the estimated by the Hyperbolic model was 7.45~7.92 mm. So the model used for the analysis can be applied to the settlement estimation of the actual field. The variations of pore water pressure with time showed constantly regardless of the load in all vertical drainage materials. The pore water pressure was similarity to that of sand after rapid drawdown. Therefore, it was applicable to the field because discharge capacity was enough to be an alternative material to the sand which had been being used as the vertical drains.

Simple relationships are proposed in this paper by modifying the Schmertmann's equation for settlement estimations of footings (i.e., $B/L{\approx}1$) carrying vertical loads in saturated and unsaturated sandy soils. The modified method is developed using model plate load tests (PLTs) and cone penetration tests (CPTs) results conducted in saturated and unsaturated sand in a controlled laboratory environment. Seven in-situ large-scale footings tested under both saturated and unsaturated conditions in sands were used to validate the proposed technique. The results of the study are encouraging as they provide reliable estimates of the settlement of shallow footings in both saturated and unsaturated sands using the conventional CPT results.

Conventionally, it used to be focused on simply prevention of further settlement of structures, where, much of problems were raised and sometimes the construction itself was not possible. Further, rough estimation of the ground, which is unseen, often incurred many troubles in the maintenance. D-ROG method is a high-tech technology that changes almost all of the concepts on the conventional grouting, is expanding its application scope spanning from the restoration of settled structures to ground strengthening works necessary for building enlargement and remodeling.

Railway construction needs vast soil investigation for its infrastructure foundation designs along the planned railway path to identify the design parameters for stability and serviceability checks. The soil investigation data are usually classified and grouped to decide design input parameters per each construction section and budget estimates. Deterministic design method which most civil engineer and practitioner are familiar with has a clear limitation in construction/maintenance budget control, and occasionally produced overdesigned or unsafe design problems. Instead of using a batch type analysis with predetermined input parameters, data population collected from site soil investigation and design load condition can be statistically estimated for the mean and variance to present the feature of data distribution and optimized with a best fitting probability function. Probabilistic approach using entire feature of design input data enables to predict the worst, best and most probable cases based on identified ranges of soil and load data, which will help railway designer select construction method to save the time and cost. This paper introduces two Monte Carlo simulations actually applied on estimation of retaining wall external stability and long term settlement of organic soil in soil investigation area for a recent high speed railway project.

Velocity method was supposed by Parkin et al.(1985) in order to supplement previous log t and (equation omitted) method. This study was to present the method for estimating the horizontal coefficient of consolidation by using velocity method which was based on the Barren's equation. Velocity method throughly eliminated not only settlement curve which had shape with difficulty in evaluating coefficient of consolidation but also the effect of unknown intial compression, the secondary consolidation and occurrence of unknown point by using velocity instead of settlement. The purpose of this study is to investigate its application in field. Velocity method was used in obtaining horizontal coefficient of consolidation in Kyung-gi area. Horizontal coefficient of consolidation using velocity method was calculated and compared with log t method, √t method Magnan & Deroy's method, Bergado's method.

조립토 다짐말뚝의 침하거동에 대한 현재까지의 연구성과들은 주로 응력분담비와 치환율을 토대로 한 침하저감계수의 평가를 위주로 수행되어 왔으나, 조립토 다짐말뚝이 설치된 지반을 복합지반으로 단순화하여 분석을 수행함으로서, 말뚝의 변형시 주로 발생하는 상부영역의 횡방향 거동을 반영하지 못하고 응력분담비로 표현되는 연직방향의 상대강성 차이와 치환율만을 고려한다는 제약성이 있다. 필자 등은 이러한 제약성을 보완하는 데 초점을 두어, 말뚝재료의 강성 및 직경 그리고 지반의 연직방향 강성과 함께 횡방향 변형을 종합적으로 고려하는 침하량 평가기법을 기 제안한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 기 제안된 기법의 적용 타당성 등을 보다 구체적으로 확인하기 위해, 현장재하시험 및 3차원 수치해석 등을 실시하여 그 결과를 비교, 분석하였다. 아울러 기 제안된 침하량 평가기법 등을 활용하여, 실무에서 간편하게 수 계산으로 조립토 다짐말뚝의 침하량 산정이 가능한 방법을 제안하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 수치해석을 이용한 정량적 민감도분석으로부터 지진하중을 받는 CFRD 정상부 침하량 변화의 주 영향인자를 찾고, 주 영향인자 변화에 따른 침하량의 변화양상을 고찰하고, 이로부터 지진하중을 받는 CFRD 정상부 침하량을 근사적으로 추정하는 방법을 제안하는 데 있다. 대형삼축압축시험으로부터 얻어진 사력재료 물성을 통계 분석하여 사력재료 물성 통계특성값을 산정하고, 산정된 통계특성값을 이용하여 작성된 27개 해석단면에 대해 해석조건을 달리한(2개 지진파, 각 지진파별 2가지 가속도 크기) 총 108개 CFRD 해석단면에 대한 동적수치해석을 수행, 그 결과를 이용한 정량적 민감도분석을 수행하였다. 민감도분석 결과, 지진하중 작용 시 CFRD 정상부 침하량은 입력 물성 중 전적으로 사력재료의 전단탄성계수에 의존하는 것으로 나타났고 점착력과 마찰각의 영향은 미미하였다. 민감도분석 결과와 전단탄성계수 변화에 따른CFRD 동적해석 결과로부터, 사력재료의 전단탄성계수와 간단한 댐 정보를 이용하여 지진하중 작용시 CFRD 정상부 침하량을 근사적으로 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다.

In This paper, load-settlement curves that obtained from 11 sites were analyzed. At all tests, the load is applied until apparent failure is observed. The validity of the ultimate and yield load estimation method and load calculated from the settlement criterion was investigated through comparison with the measured data. The result indicated that B. Hansen 80% criterion and Stability Plot in ultimate loading decision law almost have been regared as same by comparing measured date and ultimate bearing capacity decided in depending yield loading decision law from 13% to 46% difference have taeyaeen came out when measured data and Davisson was compared, and S-log t from 5% to 41% log P-log S from 14% to 50% difference have been came out. When Settlement standard and measured data was compared difference had been came out about 3% in total settlement 0.1D criterion and from 12% to 35% difference had been came out in net settlement.

터널 콘크리트라이닝 설계 시 적용되는 지반 이완하중은 정립된 설계기준이 없는 상태이다. 또한, 경험적인 지반 이완하중을 산정하여 설계에 적용함으로써 다소 보수적인 설계가 이루어지고 있는 것으로 일반적으로 인식되고 있다. 기존의 지반 이완하중 산정방법은 각각 다양한 문제점을 내재하고 있고, 수치해석에 의한 지반 이완하중 산정방법은 복잡하며 실제 지반 이완하중과의 비교검증이 이루어지지 않은 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 실제 터널현장의 거동을 반영할 수 있는 합리적인 지반 이완하중 산정방법에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 터널 시공현장에서 측정된 계측자료의 천단침하를 고려한 역해석을 통하여 지반 이완하중을 산정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 기존 지반 이완하중 산정방법보다 다소 작은 지반 이완하중이 산정되었다.

Current design of pile group is based on the estimation of the overall bearing capacity of a pile group from that of a single pile using a group efficiency. However, the behaviors of a pile group are influenced by various factors such as method of pile installation, pile-soil-pile interaction, cap-soil-pile interaction, etc. Thus it is practically impossible to take into account these factors reasonably with the only group efficiency, In this paper, a new method for the design of pile groups is proposed, where the significant factors affecting the behavior of a pile group are considered separately by adopting several efficiencies. Furthermore, in the proposed method, the load transfer characteristics of piles and the difference of pile behaviors with respect to the pile locations in group can be taken into account. The efficiencies for the method are determined using the settlement failure criterion, which is consistent with the concept of allowable settlement for structures. The efficiencies calculated from the results of existing model tests are presented, and the bearing capacity of a pile group in the other model test is calculated and compared with that from the test result, to verify the validity of the proposed method.
