The effects of various supporting arrangements have been investigated on an excavation support system using a numerical tool. The purpose of providing different supporting arrangements was to limit the pile wall deflection in the range of 0.5% to 1% of the excavation depth. Firstly, a deep excavation supported by sheet pile wall was modeled and the effects of sheet pile wall thickness, excavation depth and distance to adjacent footings from sheet pile wall face were explored on the soil deformation and wall deflection. Further analysis was performed considering six different arrangements of tieback anchors and struts in order to limit the wall deflections. Case-01 represents the basic excavation geometry supported by sheet pile wall only. In Case-02, sheet pile wall was supported by struts. Case-03 is a sheet pile wall supported by tieback anchors. Likewise, for the Cases 04, 05 and 06, different arrangements of struts and tieback anchors were used. Finally, the effects of different supporting arrangements on soil deformation, sheet pile wall deflection, bending moments and anchor forces have been presented.

The hazard of excavation may be very high until a supporting system is completely installed. In this paper, an excavation method which uses partially reinforced soldier pile($\square$-shape) inserted by a short length steel bar was proposed and simulated by the finite element method. The reinforcing steel bar is moved down along the stage of excavation to reinforce the stiffness of the supporting system. The result of analysis showed that the risk of failure by bending moment or shear stress could be significantly reduced by the reinforcing effect of the steel bar. The proposed method could be applied to the strut-supporting wall or the diaphragm wall.

본 연구에서는 3차원 유한요소해석을 이용하여 석회공동형성 암반에 시공된 말뚝기초의 하중지지 메카니즘 변화를 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 공동의 기하학적 조건을 변화시키며 말뚝기초의 극한지지력, 지반의 항복형태, 말뚝과 공동 주위의 응력분포 및 말뚝기초의 침하와 공동의 변형 등 해석결과를 고찰하여 말뚝기초의 역학적 거동을 검토하였다. 본 연구결과, 말뚝의 하중지지 메카니즘, 지반의 파괴형태 및 말뚝기초의 극한지지력 감소율은 공동의 기하조건에 의해 결정되며 이러한 경향을 토대로 공동의 특정조건에 대한 말뚝의 극한지지력 감소율 그래프를 제시하였다.

상부구조물을 지지하는 무리말뚝의 내진설계 시 지반-구조물의 상호작용이 고려되어야 한다. 무리말뚝 설계 시 지반과 구조물의 비선형 관계는 p-y 곡선이 많이 사용되고 있으며 지진과 같은 동적하중조건에서 지반-구조물의 상호작용이 고려된 동적 p-y 곡선을 무리말뚝의 내진설계에 사용하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 이와 같은 연구는 말뚝 캡에 의한 지지효과 및 상부구조물의 관성거동에 의한 상호작용은 고려되지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 사질토 지반에 근입된 상부구조물을 지지하는 무리말뚝에서 말뚝 캡의 변화가 무리말뚝에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 말뚝의 배열 및 중심 간격은 고정하고 말뚝 캡 측면과 말뚝 중심 간격을 변화시켜 진동대 모형실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 무리말뚝에서 말뚝 캡 측면과 말뚝 중심 간격의 변화가 말뚝의 동적 p-y 곡선 및 무리말뚝 효과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 지진하중을 받는 파일기초의 횡방향 동적 거동해석이 수행되었다. 해석모델은 간편하면서도 비교적 정확한 Beam-on-twinkler Foundation 모델을 사용하였다. 동적 P-y 관계는 지반의 비선형 효과를 고려할 수 있는 Kagawa와 Kraft가 제안한 방법을 사용하였으며. 이 관계는 해석결과에 가장 큰 영향을 미친다. 또한, 파일의 군 효과도 근사적으로 고려하였다. 해석결과로는 파일이 지지하는 상부구조물이 없을 경우에는 파일의 거동은 지반의 거동과 일치하였다. 그러나 상부구조물이 있을 경우에는 파일과 지반사이에 상대변위가 발생하였다. 또한 파일의 내진설계시에는 지반의 거동으로 인하여 파일에 거리는 휭모멘트를 견딜 수 있게 설계하여야 한다.

A novel steel-pipe energy pile is introduced, in which the deformed rebars for main reinforcing are replaced with steel pipes in a large diameter cast-in-place energy pile. Here, the steel pipes act as not only reinforcements but also heat exchangers by circulating the working fluid through the hollow hole in the steel pipes. Under this concept, the steel-pipe energy pile can serve a role of supporting main structures and exchanging heat with surrounding mediums without installing additional heat exchange pipes. In this study, the steel-pipe energy pile was constructed in a test bed considering the material properties of steel pipes and the subsoil investigation. Then, the thermal performance test (TPT) in cooling condition was conducted in the constructed energy pile to investigate thermal performance. In addition, the thermal performance of the steel-pipe energy pile was compared with that of the conventional large diameter cast-in-place energy pile to evaluate its applicability. As a result, the steel-pipe energy pile showed 11% higher thermal performance than the conventional energy pile along with much simpler construction processes.

Monopiles have been most widely used for supporting offshore wind turbines (OWTs) in shallow water areas. However, multi-member lattice-type structures such as jackets and tripods are also considered good alternatives to monopile foundations for relatively deep water areas with depth ranging from 25-50 m owing to their technical and economic feasibility. Moreover, jacket structures have been popular in the oil and gas industry for a long time. However, several unsolved technical issues still persist in the utilization of multi-member lattice-type supporting structures for OWTs; these problems include pile-soil-interaction (PSI) effects, realization of dynamically stable designs to avoid resonances, and quick and safe installation in remote areas. In this study, the effects of PSI on the dynamic properties of bottom-fixed OWTs, including monopile-, tripod- and jacket-supported OWTs, were investigated intensively. The tower and substructure were modeled using conventional beam elements with added mass, and pile foundations were modeled with beam and nonlinear spring elements. The effects of PSI on the dynamic properties of the structure were evaluated using Monte Carlo simulation considering the load amplitude, scouring depth, and the uncertainties in soil properties.

The problems associated with constructing high-speed concrete track embankments over soft compressible soil has lead to the development and/or extensive use of many of the ground improvement techniques used today. Drains, surcharge loading, and geosynthetic reinforcement, have all been used to solve the settlement and embankment stability issues associated with construction on soft soils. Geosynthetic-reinforced embankment supporting piles method consist of vertical columns that are designed to transfer the load of the embankment through the soft compressible soil layer to a firm foundation and one or more layers of geosynthetic reinforcement placed between the top of the columns and the bottom of the embankment. In the paper, the evaluations of a seismic performance of geosynthetic-reinforced embankment piles for a ultra soft ground during earthquake were studied. the equivalent linear analysis was performed by SHAKE for soft ground. A seismic performance analysis of Piles was performed by GROUP PILE and PLAXIS for geosynthetic-reinforced embankment piles. Guidelines is required for pile displacement during earthquake. Conclusions of the studies come up with a idea for soil stiffness, conditions of pile cap, pile length and span.

When group pile supporting structures are to be subjected to large lateral loads, generally, hatter piles are used in group pile with vertical piles. It is well known that batter piles resist lateral static loads which are acted upon the piles as axial farces quite well but, they show a poor performance under seismic loads. However, it is not yet known how the batter piles behave under dynamic loading and how to strengthen the batter piles to improve the seismic performance. Shaking table tests were performed to investigate the seismic behavior of the batter pile and to bring up the countermeasures to improve the seismic performance. As the result of the shaking table tests, batter piles failed due to not only the excessive increase of compressive force near the pile head but also that of tensile force. In case that the pile head was connected with pile cap by rubber joint, the max. acceleration at the pile cap was reduced due to the high damping ratio of rubber and the max. moment and max. axial farce at the pile head was decreased remarkably. When the inclinations(V:H) of the batter pile were 8:3 and 8:4, max. moment, max. shear force, and max. axial farce were reduced notably and max. acceleration and max. displacement at the pile cap was diminished, too.
