The objective of this study is to develop a soil hardness tester which can estimate tillage resistance with tae travelling cone-penetrometer. For the study, a series of tests was performed using the cone penetrating in the horizontal direction. Based on the tests above, soil hardness was represented by travelling cone-index vs depth of cone penetration, travelling speed and moisture contents of the soil Resistance characteristics obtained from the experiments were compared with those by a vertical cone-penetrometer and the Yamanaka's soil hardness tester. Following conclusions were made from the study. 1. 8 to 9 peaks per one meter were detected in the resistance curve of cone penetration regardless of the travelling speed of cone-penetrometer when it penetrated the soil in the horizontal direction. This phenomenon seemed to be a similar one noticed in shearing pitch of plowing. 2. Cone index increased as travelling speed increased from 0.08m/sec to 0.5m/sec. 3. Linear relationship was found between the cone indices measured by the travelling coe-penetrometer and Yamanaka's hardness tester. 4. Increasing rate of the cone indices measured by vertical cone-penetrometer decreased as the depth of soil increased while the cone indices by the travelling cone-pentrometer increased linearly.

In recent years there has been a steady increase in geoenvironmental engineering projects where geotechnical engineering has been combined with environmental concerns. Many of these projects involve some investigation of contaminant in the ground. There are many techniques such as geophysical, drilling, sampling, and pushing techniques for investigation of contaminated ground. The most rapidly developing site characterization techniques for geoenvironmental purposes Involve direct push technology, that is, penetration tests. In this study, the envi-cone penetrometer system is developed by modification of traditional cone penetration test. The electrical resistivity sensor, pH sensor, thermometer are installed in envi-cone penetrometer system. This envi-cone penetrometer system provides a continuous profile of measurements, and it is rapid, repeatable, reliable and cost effective.

일반적으로 다양한 원위치 지반조사 방법들이 각 지반의 특성치 산출에 활용되고 있으나 토사지반과 암반지반의 중간 전이지반인 중간지반(IGM; Intermediate Geo-material)에 대한 그 방법들의 적용은 미비하거나 한계가 있다. 국외에서는 IGM지반에 대한 지반조사기술인 텍사스콘관입시험 (TCPT; Texas Cone Penetrometer Test)을 말뚝기초의 설계에 활용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 장비와 지반에 맞게 개량된 한국형 타격콘관입시험 (DCPT; Driving Cone Penetrometer Test)방법을 개발하였으며 이를 국내 지반에 적용한 결과를 다양한 원위치 지반조사 방법들과 비교 평가하고 관계를 분석하였다. 그 결과 DCPT와 SPT 결과와의 관계에서는 양호한 관계가 나타났으며 지반종류에 따른 DCPT의 특성치 범위도 적절하게 나타낼 수 있었다.

The cone penetration test(CPT) has gained its popularity in site characterization indebted by its reliability, speed, economy, and automatic measurement system since its development in the 1930s. The CPT results, commonly consisting of cone tip resistance, sleeve friction, and pore water pressure measurements, allow us to classify soils as well as to reveal their engineering characteristics. The site condition at which the CPT is allowable is often dependent on the capacity of a CPT system. In Korea, it has been considered that the CPT could be appled only to soft soils in most cases because CPT systems available for stiff soils are very rare due to their expensive procurement and maintenance cost. Luoisiana Transportation Research Center(LTRC) has developed and implemented a field-rugged continuous intrusion miniature cone penetration test(CIMCPT) system since the late 1990s. The miniature cone penetrometer has a sectional cone area of $2cm^2$ allowing system capacity reduction compared to the standard $10cm^2$ cone penetrometer. The continuous intrusion mechanism allows fast and economic site investigation. Samsung Engineering & Construction has recently developed and implemented a similar CIMCPT system based on its original version developed in LTRC. The performance of the Samsung CIMCPT system has been investigated by calibration with the standard CPT system at a well-characterized test site in Pusan, Korea. In addition, scale effect between the miniature cone penetrometer and the standard cone penetrometer has been investigated by comparing the field test results using the both systems.

Various types of micro cone penetrometers have been developed by using strain gages for the layered soil detection. Strain gages, however, are affected by several factors such as temperature, self heating and lead wire length. In this study, micro cone penetrometers with 3~7mm in diameter, are developed by using FBG sensor to overcome the defects of the strain gage, and compensate the effect of temperature during penetration. In order to verifiy the accuracy and reliability of the developed FBG cone, the cone penetration test is performed on the layered soil. The tip resistance of FBG snesor shows excellent sensitivity, and can detect the interface of the layered soils with higher resolution. In addition, the 3mm micro cone penetrometer which is impossible cone diameter by using strain gages presents much higher sensitivity than the 7mm cone penetrometer. This study suggests that FBG sensor is a useful sensor for manufaturing the ultra small sized cone, and effectively detects the interface of the layered soil.

IGM(Intermediate Geomaterial)에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 설계를 수행하기 위해서는 대상 지반의 강도특성을 알아야 하고, 이를 위해 IGM에 대한 일축이나 삼축 등의 압축강도시험을 수행한다. 그러나, 설계 대상의 IGM지반이 풍화가 된 경우에는 압축강도시험을 통한 강도특성 파악이 힘들다. 이러한 경우에는 압축강도시험을 대체하여 IGM지반의 강도 특성을 파악할 수 있는 방법들이 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 현재 텍사스주 도로국(Texas Department of Transportation)에서 말뚝기초의 설계인자로서 사용 중인 텍사스 콘 관입시험(Texas Cone Penetrometer Test)을 이용하여 IGM지반의 역학특성을 파악하였다. 그리고 미국의 텍사스주 지역에 분포하는 IGM지반인 셰일(Clay Shale)과 석회암(Limestone)을 대상으로 시험현장을 선택하였고 말뚝재하시험과 텍사스 콘 관입시험을 수행하였다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 텍사스 콘 관입시험과 IGM 근입 현장타설말뚝의 주면마찰력과 선단지지력과의 상관관계를 제시하였다.

철도노반에 대한 지반조사 방법은 표준관입시험(SPT), Cone 관입시험 등이 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 표준관입시험은 시험장비가 크기 때문에 운행선 주변의 전철주 등에 접촉 위험이 있어 적용에 어려움이 있다. 그리고 휴대용 장비인 DCP(Dynamic Cone Penetrometer)의 경우 타격에너지가 부족하고 관입되는 Cone-rod의 강성이 부족하므로 필요 깊이까지 관입이 불가능하여 사용에 제한을 받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 휴대용 장비이면서 타격에너지와 강성이 큰 Pagani Cone Test를 표준관입시험과 동일한 지반에서 시험을 실시하여 N값을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 Pagano Cone Test의 N값을 보정시 사질토에서 SPT의 N값의 1.48배, 점토에서 1.33배를 얻었으며, Pagani Cone Test의 N값과 표준관입시험의 N값과의 상관관계를 제안하였다.
