Shallow failures of slopes in weathered soils are caused by infiltration due to prolonged rainfall. These failures are mainly triggered by the deepening of the wetting band accompanied by a decrease in suction induced by the water infiltration. In this paper, hysteresis on soil-water characteristic curve(SWCC) of granite and gneiss weathered soils are investigated using transient flow analysis respectively. Each case was subjected to artificial rainfall intensities and time duration depending on the laboratory-based drying and wetting processes. The results show that the unsaturated seepage on weathered slopes are very much affected by the initial suction of soils and unsaturated permeability of the soils. In addition, a granite weathered soil has a lower air-entry value, residual matric suction, and wetting front suction and less hysteresis loop than a gneiss weathered soil.

Since various weathered soils are encountered in many domestic construction sites, it is necessary to estimate characteristics of natural weathered soils. However, the remolded sample of weathered soils are commonly used to estimate their characteristics because it is very difficult to sample weathered soils in undisturbed states. However, it is well known that the behavior of remolded sample is different from that of the undisturbed sample particularly in the dynamic response, because the particle structure of undisturbed sample maintains its original structure from the mother rock. Thus, to evaluate the influence of sampling method and preparation method on stress-strain behavior, the resonant column tests were performed on the block, tube samples, remolded samples with static compression and remolded samples with tamping of the weathered granite soils. The shear modulus of the remolded sample with tamping is larger than the other samples presumably due to the high tamping pressure enough to induce particle breakage. The tube samples show larger damping ratios than other samples. Furthermore, one-dimensional ground response analysis was performed to compare the results qualitatively.

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the overburden effect on soil-water characteristic curve and unsaturated permeability of unsaturated weathered soils. For this, unsaturated suction and permeability tests under various overburden stress were conducted respectively. Then, the coefficient of unsaturated permeability and moisture capacity of weathered soils were estimated and compared. All these results are presented in the paper.

Weathered soil is one of the most representative soils in Korea. In this study, a series of cyclic triaxial tests was carried out to predict the post-cyclic deformation behavior of weathered soils in case of non-liquefaction. Excess pore pressure response during cyclic loading and volumetric strain during the dissipation of excess pore pressure were measured varying the confining pressure, relative density and cyclic stress ratio. Based on the test results, it Is found that the modified excess pore pressure ratio, excess pore pressure ratio normalized by cyclic stress ratio, is uniquely correlated with the number of cycles irrespective of confining pressure and cyclic stress ratio. Using the newly proposed MEPPR(modified excess pore pressure ratio) concept, it is possible to easily evaluate the excess pore pressure and the settlement of weathered soils due to cyclic loading by greatly reduced number of tests. It is also verified that the reconsolidation volumetric strain is independent of the way how the excess pore pressure was generated.

본 연구에서는 전라남도 장성과 화순에 분포하는 석회암풍화토의 물성 및 전단 특성을 연구하였다. 석회암풍화토의 교란시료에 대한 물성 및 전단 특성을 파악하기 위하여 실내 시험이 수행되었다. 연구지역의 석회암풍화토에 대한 물성 및 전단 특성은 다음과 같다 비중(Gs)은 2.78~2.80, 액성한계(LL)는 37~38(%), 소성지수(PI)는 13.7~15.4이며 흙의 분류(USCS)는 CL에 해당된다. 불포화 시료의 직접전단시험 (vd, $1.5t/\textrm{m}^3$)에 의한 강도정수는 점착력(c)이 3.07~4.4 ($t/\textrm{m}^2$) 그리고 내부마찰각($\Phi$)은 $34.8~42.4^{\circ}$의 범위를 보인다. 화강암풍화토 (양, 1997; 문. 1998; 박, 1998)와 비교해 보면, 연구지역의 석회암 풍화토의 물리적 특성은 일반적으로 차이를 보이며, 전단 강도정수 중, 내부마찰각은 대체적으로 유사한 경향을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

풍화토는 암석이 풍화되어 생성되기 때문에 모암과 풍화과정에 따라 그 특성이 결정된다. 따라서, 풍화토의 특성을 고찰하기 위해서는 먼저 모암에 대한 고찰과 풍화과정을 지배하는 풍화환경에 대한 고찰이 이루어져야 한다. 이번 연구에서는 모암과 풍화정도에 따른 풍화의 특성을 고찰하기 위해 화강암 풍화토와 편마암 풍과토를 불교란 또는 교란상태로 채취한 후. 기본 물성시험, 암석학적 시험 그리고 다양한 전단시험을 실시하였다. 여러 가지 시험의 결과에서 암석의 풍화는 모암의 조암광물 분포 및 생성특성과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 화강암 풍화토의 경우 모암의 비방향적인 성격 때문에 현장응력 상태화 전단특성이 등방적으로 나타났으며, 편마암 풍과토는 그 내부에 존재하는 불연속면이 역학적 거동을 지배하는 방향적 특성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 식영이 장석 또는 운모보다 풍화저항력이 크다는 사실의 확인과 함께 풍화대의 두께가 구성 조암광물에 크게 영향을 받는다는 결론을 얻었다.

The causes of landslides are dependant on rainfall events and the soil characteristics of a slope. For the conventional slope stability, the slope stability analysis has been carried out assuming the saturated soil theory. But, in order to clearly explain a proper soil slope condition by rainfall, the research should be performed using the unsaturated soil mechanism suitable for a soil slope in the field. In the study, by using two major categories of soils in Korea, such as granite and gneiss weathered soils, landslide model test and finite element method have been compared with the difference of seepage and soil stability analysis. The hydraulic conductivity of gneiss weathered soil is slower than that of granite weathered soil, and the gneiss weathered soil contains much finer soils than the granite weathered soil. It was confirmed that the instability of the slope was progressing slowly due to the slow rate of volumetric water content of the surface layer.

This study explored the compacition characteristics of organic weathered soils. Weathered soils were collected around the Gwangju University in Jinwol-dong, Gwangju city, and coal was used as organic material. Weathered soils were mixed with coal so that the ratio of organic elements against mixed soil can be 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% respectively. Compaction tests were carried out on these organic mixture soils in different ratios of organic materials. And soap water instead of water in compaction tests was used. Through this study, We knew that the bigger the organic material ratio was, the more the optimum moisture content increased and the less the maximum dry unit weight reduced. In case of using small compaction energy, using soap water instead of water improved the compaction efficiency a little.

화강풍화토의 동결-융해 전후의 동적 거동을 구명하기 위하여 반복삼축압축시험을 수행하였다. 화강풍화토의 실트 함유량 20%이내에서 동결-융해를 받지 않은 공시체와 동결-융해를 받은 공시체를 구속압력을 변화시켜 동적 물성치인 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비의 변화 특성을 고찰하였다. 또한 점성토의 함유량을 각각 다르게 하여 소성지수의 변화에 따른 동결-응해 후의 동적 거동의 변화를 고찰하였다. 연구결과, 화강풍화토의 실트함유량이 증가할수록 전단탄성계수는 감소하였다. 그러나 동일한 밀도, 구속압력의 조건에서 동결-융해를 받은 화강풍화토의 전단탄성계수는 실트함유량에 관계없이 전단탄성계수에 큰 차이가 없었다. 점토를 함유한 소성지수 20이내의 화강풍화토의 전단탄성계수는 소성지수가 클수록 증가하였으며 동결-융해를 받게되면 전단탄성계수의 감소가 뚜렷하게 나타났다.
