This paper concerns the design of blasts adjacent to structures and facilities. In order to investigate the site characteristics, measurements of in-situ wave propagation and laboratory tests of rock cores taken from the boreholes were carried out. Effects of rock media and delay intervals on ground vibration levels were identified from over sixty measurements of three times of test blasts. For practical use in the field, an empirical propagation equation was derived so as to reflect the characteristics of rock media and delay effects. Safe limits of vibration level for structures were conservatively established based on various suggested criteria. Safe limits for facilities were adopted so that vibration levels induced by blasting should not exceed the allowable limits specified in the manufacturer's installation condition. Suggested were blast pattern and operation to enhance the rock fracturing and to reduce the ground vibration levels under the restricted conditions.

Supporting method of a Temporary retaining wall for underground excavation project are adopted by systems of strut, anchor, nail, raker, etc. Strut system and Raker system of these methods are mostly used preloading jack to minimize deformations of retaining wall. We determinate efficient preloading to analysis these strut-preloadings, deformations of retaining wall, axial forces, and etc.. This study is analysed that preloading applied 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, ...., 100% for strut and raker installed by CIP temporary retaining wall. This study results that adequate preloadings were determined to analysis correlations of preloading, deformations of wall, maximum bending moment, axial force of strut, and displacement of surrounding.

Urban construction has numerous difficulties due to ground weakness and various complaints from third party, so it is not economically efficient and constructability is not favorable. Therefore, underground, which has good ground conditions, was used for construction field and facilities such as stations, and they are scaled up to enhance accommodation of facility limitation and function of stations. Large section tunnel station construction has numerous risk factors such as work boundary of excavation equipment, a relaxation of stress concentration, a safety plan of tunnel stability, and so on. Therefore, by using large section tunnel station stability analysis considering construction step, we expect to analyze the latent problem during construction, and to stabilize a future project plan of a large section structure design by using an auxiliary method and a support design.

In the design and construction of underground structures, it is essential to accurately predict the structural behavior of the fluid-saturated ground during and after excavation. Terzaghi and Biot established the theory for the behavior of such two phase material. For the purpose of analysing the saturated porous solid system, finite element procedure provides a powerful tool. In this paper, a finite element analysis procedure based upon Biot's theory is presented to evaluate the deformation of solid skeleton and pore pressure of entraped fluid. Teraghi's onf-dimensional and Gibson's two-dimensional problems are solved using Q4 and Q8 element to verify the program validity.

Rock masses usually contain such features as bedding planes, faults, fissures, fractures, joints and other mechanical defects which, although formed from a wide range of geological processes, posses the common characteristics of low shear strength, negligible tensile strength and high fluid conductivity compared with the surrounding rock material. In the engineering context here, the discontinuities can be the single most important factor governing the deformability, strength and permeability of the rock mass. Moreover, a particularly large and persistent discontinuity could critically affect the stability of any surface or underground excavation. For these reasons, it is necessary to develop a thorough understanding of the geometrical, mechanical and hydrological properties of discontinuities and the way in which these will affect rock mechanics and hence rock engineering.

A series of three-dimensional numerical modelling have been conducted to clarify the behaviour of multi-pressurised soil nails with high strength steel pipes. In this study, the soil non-linearity, the soil-nail interaction and staged construction are considered. It has been found that pressurised soil nails can reduce lateral ground movement by 14-21% compared to general soil nails with very low pressure. In addition, ground settlement was reduced when using multi-pressurised soil nails. The pressurised soil nail may result in an increase in the surcharge loading on the ground surface.

Construction of a new cavern close to an existing cavern will result in a modification of the state of stresses in a zone around the existing cavern as interaction between the twin caverns takes place. Extensive plane strain finite difference analyses were carried out to examine the deformations induced by excavation of underground twin caverns. From the numerical results, a fairly simple nonparametric regression algorithm known as multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) has been used to relate the maximum key point displacement and the percent strain to various parameters including the rock quality, the cavern geometry and the in situ stress. Probabilistic assessments on the serviceability limit state of twin caverns can be performed using the First-order reliability spreadsheet method (FORM) based on the built MARS model. Parametric studies indicate that the probability of failure $P_f$ increases as the coefficient of variation of Q increases, and $P_f$ decreases with the widening of the pillar.

Water jet has been employed in extraacton of minerals for many years but the applications of low pressure jent s ar emodfined to some fields. With increasing strength of equipment it is possible to consider the use of high speed water jets for cutting hard rock. The high speed water jet technology is applied to various engineering fiels such as precessing rocks, quarrying rocks, mechanical fracturing as wel as rock excavation under the sea. For slot cutting in rocks with high speed water jets it is necessary to establish the empirical formula for estiamation of the cutting depth. The cutting depth is influenced by cutting parameters such as driving pressure, traverse speed, standoff distance, and shape and diameter of nozzel. Tests were carried out with a variety of cutting parameters on three types of granite. Nozzle pressures ranged from 1,200 to 2,800 bar, traverse speeds from 0.45 to 10.38 cm/min, standoff distances from 4.5 to 13.5 mm, and three types of nozzle diameter were used.

This research is designed to assess current achievement levels for mechanized excavation systems in Korea adn suggest the model predictive of TBM performance using statistical approaches. A test section in the TBM construction sites is selected to measure and analyze TBM performance. The field records including operating data, time allocation into downtime catagories, and machine design are analyzed on a shift basis. There are a total of 240 shifts, with most days operating two shifts per day. Examples of the probability density functions produced from the test section are presented and discussed. Relationships between TBM penetration rate and rock physical properties are investigated and the empirical equations for TBM performance prediction are also assessed with the field data.
