On the basis of the geological conditions of high and steep mountainous slope on which an exit portal of an express railway tunnel with a bridge-tunnel combination is to be built, the composite structure of the exit portal with a bridge abutment of the bridge-tunnel combination is presented and the stability of the slope on which the express railway portal is to be built is analyzed using three dimensional (3D) numerical simulation in the paper. Comparison of the practicability for the reinforcement of slope with in-situ bored piles and diaphragm walls are performed so as to enhance the stability of the high and steep slope. The safety factor of the slope due to rockmass excavation both inside the exit portal and beneath the bridge abutment of the bridge-tunnel combination has been also derived using strength reduction technique. The obtained results show that post tunnel portal is a preferred structure to fit high and steep slope, and the surrounding rock around the exit portal of the tunnel on the high and steep mountainous slope remains stable when rockmass is excavated both from the inside of the exit portal and underneath the bridge abutment after the slope is reinforced with both bored piles and diaphragm walls. The stability of the high and steep slope is principally dominated by the shear stress state of the rockmass at the toe of the slope; the procedure of excavating rockmass in the foundation pit of the bridge abutment does not obviously affect the slope stability. In-situ bored piles are more effective in controlling the deformation of the abutment foundation pit in comparison with diaphragm walls and are used as a preferred retaining structure to uphold the stability of slope in respect of the lesser time, easier procedure and lower cost in the construction of the exit portal with bridge-tunnel combination on the high and steep mountainous slope. The results obtained from the numerical analysis in the paper can be used to guide the structural design and construction of express railway tunnel portal with bridge-tunnel combination on high and abrupt mountainous slope under similar situations.

The Cutting slope is to be minimized when a tunnel meets the contour of slope terrain at a right angle around its portal. However, a tunnel portal has been generally installed at a right angle to the longitudinal axis of a tunnel with no consideration of the intersection angle with the slope terrain. This sometimes tended to cause huge cutting slope that resulted in many disadvantage in terms of safty, economy and environment. Therefore, the minimization of cutting slope is studied by taking the intersection angle into account, and the result is compared with that by the conventional method. In addition a design method for the inclined portal to the tunnel axis is proposed through 3D-FEM analysis, also the applicable ground condition is suggested.

The tunnel type spillways is under construction to increasing water reservoir capacity in Dae-am dam. The tunnel outlet was planned to be made after installing slope stabilization system on natural slope there. Generally, the tunnel outlet is made perpendicularly to the slope, but in this case, it had to be made obliquely to the slope for not interrupting flow of river. Because of excavation in condition of natural slope caused to deflecting earth pressure, the outlet couldn't be made. So, artificial ground made with concrete that it was constructed in the outside of tunnel for producing the arching effect which enables to make a outlet. We were planned tunnel excavation was carried out after artificial ground made. Artificial ground made by poor mix concrete of which it was planned that the thickness was at least 3.0m height from outside of tunnel lining and 30cm of height per pouring. Spreading and compaction was planned utilized weight of 15 ton roller machine. In order to access of working truck, slope of artificial ground was designed 1:1.0 and applied 2% slope in upper pert of it for easily drainage of water. In addition to, upper pert of artificial ground was covered with soil, because of impaction of rock fall from upper slope was made minimum. The tunnel excavation of the artificial ground was designed application with special blasting method that it was Super Wedge and control blasting utilized with pre-percussion hole.

The slope of an open cut tunnel is located above the exit of the Leijia tunnel on the Changgan high-speed railway. During the excavation of the open cut tunnel foundation pit, the slope slipped twice, a large landslide of 92500 m³ formed. The landslide body and unstable slope body not only caused the foundation pit of the open cut tunnel to be buried and the anchor piles to be damaged but also directly threatened the operational safety of the later high-speed railway. Therefore, to study the stability change in the slope of the open cut tunnel under heavy rain and excavation conditions, a 3D numerical calculation model of the slope is carried out by Midas GTS software, the deformation mechanism is analyzed, anti-sliding measures are proposed, and the effectiveness of the anti-sliding measures is analyzed according to the field monitoring results. The results show that when rainfall occurs, rainwater collects in the open cut tunnel area, resulting in a transient saturation zone on the slope on the right side of the open cut tunnel, which reduces the shear strength of the slope soil; the excavation at the slope toe reduces the anti-sliding capacity of the slope toe. Under the combined action of excavation and rainfall, when the soil above the top of the anchor pile is excavated, two potential sliding surfaces are bounded by the top of the excavation area, and the shear outlet is located at the top of the anchor pile. After the excavation of the open cut tunnel, the potential sliding surface is mainly concentrated at the lower part of the downhill area, and the shear outlet moves down to the bottom of the open cut tunnel. Based on the deformation characteristics and the failure mechanism of the landslides, comprehensive control measures, including interim emergency mitigation measures and long-term mitigation measures, are proposed. The field monitoring results further verify the accuracy of the anti-sliding mechanism analysis and the effectiveness of anti-sliding measures.

In September 2007, the collapses of slopes and landslides are happened at Jeonlanamdo due to heavy rains accompanied with Typoon "Nari". The study area is the tunnel portal slope in new road construction site. This slope consists of pyroclastic rocks and has lots of faults. Particularly, the residual soils of the slope is deteriorated with yellowish mudstone layer as a results of chemical and physical weathering. This has a variety of swelling clay minerals and might be moved easily down at the gentle terrain. The inner factor of $\bigcirc\bigcirc$tunnel portal slope's collapse is the geological weak zone, the convergent topography, the inferiority of drainage and the heavy rain act on the failure as direct trigger.

석회암 사면에서 터널 출입구를 시공하기 위하여 진입로를 개설하던 중 사면붕괴가 발생되었다. 사면의 붕괴원인을 조사하기 위하여 현장조사, 실내시험 및 수치해석을 수행하였다. 수치해석결과에 따르면 터널 출입구 진입로 개설이전 사면안전율은 1.0이하이며, 진입로 개설이후 사면안전율은 더 저하되는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 진입로 개설이후 전단변형률 및 소성영역은 사면상부에서 하부로 전이되므로 사면활동영역이 증가되어 사면안정성을 저하시키는 것으로 해석되었다. 터널 출입구 시공을 위해서는 해당사면에 대한 안정성을 확보하여야 하므로, 대상현장의 조건을 고려하여 록볼트, 록앵커 및 FRP 그라우팅을 사면에 보강하는 것으로 결정하였다. 적용된 사면보강공법의 효과를 확인하기 위하여 현장계측을 수행하였다. 현장계측결과 사면지반의 수평변위는 매우 미소하며, 대부분 발생된 이후 다시 회복되는 탄성거동을 보였다. 그리고 록볼트 및 앵커축력은 터널굴착작업 및 장마기간에 의한 영향보다는 사면굴착작업시 영향을 가장 크게 받으며, 터널굴착작업이후 수렴하는 경향을 보이므로 대상사면은 안정한 상태임을 확인할 수 있다.

기존 개탁식터널은 굴착경사와 관계없이 터널상부에는 되메움지반의 자중이 그리고, 터널벽체에는 정지토압이 작용하는 것으로 가정하여 설계되고 있다. 그러나 개착식터널에 실제 작용하는 토압은 개착규모에 따라 다르며 이에 따라 터널라이닝의 구조적거동 또한 다르게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 수치해석적방법을 사용하여 굴착경사가 터널라이닝에 미치는 영향을 다음과 같이 조사하였다. 첫째로, 지반범용수치해석프로그램인 FLAC2D를 사용하여 개착공법으로 시공된 기존 터널의 변형거동을 모사할 수 있는 수치해석방법을 활용하여 현장의 계측결과와 비교하므로써 수치해석방법의 타당성을 검증하였고, 둘째로, 동일한 수치해석기법을 적용하여 굴착경사가 $30^{\circ}\;, 456{\circ},\; 60^{\circ},\; 75^{\circ}%인 개착식터널에 작용하는 토압 및 변위와 터널라이닝에 발생하는 단면력을 조사하였다. 수치해석에 사용된 개착식터널은 2차로 도로터널이며, 터널라이닝과 되메움지반 사이의 마찰력을 고려하기 위하여 접합면 요소를 사용하였다. 수치 해석결과, 되메움지반과 터널라이닝 및 굴착사면 사이의 마찰력에 의한 되메움지반 내부의 아칭현상으로 인하여 굴착 경사가 클수록 터널벽체에 상대적으로 작은 토압이 작용하였으며, 이에 따라 터널라이닝의 변형, 모멘트, 전단력이 증가하였음을 알 수 있었다.
