  • To establish the reinforce region and technique through the embankment dike after identifying the region of seawater inflow, we carried out small-loop electromagnetic (EM) survey, electrical resistivity survey and refraction seismic method. We also analyzed the distribution of electrical conductivity in reservoir with depth every two month and monitored water level variations with tidal variation in four observation wells located at seaside and reservoir side in order to analyze the relationship with survey results. From both the cross-correlation between tidal and water level variation at four wells and the distribution of electrical conductivity in reservoir with depth, the major portion of seawater inflow are identified through the embankment dike. From electromagnetic and electrical resistivity survey results, it was found that the seawater inflow were happened through several small regions at seaside and became wider near reservoir side. The 2-D inversion sections of refraction seismic method showed that the pebble-bearing sand layer is spread over the whole region with two to four width. From the this study, small-loop EM, electrical resistivity and refraction seismic surveys accompany with the distribution of electrical conductivity in reservoir with depth and the monitoring results for water level variations are revealed to be effective to identify seawater inflow pathway through embankment dike and to establish the reinforce region and technique through the embankment dike.

  • In this study the process of normalizing hydraulic head loss rate was developed for the purpose of estimation of seepage blocking state at each seepage segment in sea dike embankment. Pore water pressure sensors were installed with some interval along seepage path, then the hydraulic head loss rate at each segment between pore water pressure sensors was calculated, and then the calculated hydraulic head loss rate was normalized based on seepage path length. The comparison of normalized hydraulic head loss rates showed that the cross section of sea dike embankment was homogeneous approximately and the width of cross section was long enough to blocking tide water.

  • In this study the laboratory test for hydraulic conductivity and the seepage analysis with finite element method on measurement section of sea dike embankment were performed for the purpose of estimating the relative density of embankment from the measured pore water pressures, and both results of the test and the analysis were coupled with the method of estimating seepage blocking state with the hydraulic head loss rate in sea dike embankment. The relationship of void ratio vs hydraulic head loss rate was obtained by setting hydraulic conductivity as common ordinate on the relationships between the void ratio and the hydraulic conductivity and between the hydraulic conductivity and the hydraulic head loss rate. The void ratio on the segment between measuring points was calculated from the coupled relationship of the void ratio vs the hydraulic conductivity. The allowable upper and lower limits of hydraulic head loss rate and those of void ratio on the safety were generated from the coupled relationship between the laboratory compaction test and the sedimentation test. Current hydraulic head loss rate and void ratio were evaluated in the allowable range between upper and lower limits.

  • This study was performed for the purpose of analyzing the effect of tide on the stress-strain behavior in the boundary surface of sea dike embankment. Tide is a dynamic condition, but there are not suitable numerical models to solve the dynamic embankment condition caused by tide. So the analysis was simplified to quasi dynamic as follow. First, seepage by tide was analyzed according to elapsed time, and the results of the analysis at every hour during one periodic cycle time of 12 hours were applied to the pore water pressure conditions of stress-strain analysis with hyperbolic model by Duncan and Chang. The place at which maximum shear strain took place in the analysis result moved up and down repeatedly along the boundary of the dredged sand fill section and the crashed stone filter section. The value of maximum shear strain was large at high water level of tide. This result means that contraction and relaxation occur in turn repeatedly at every specific position along the boundary, and the repeated action compact loose position with sand moved down from the upper position by gravity. The experiment with the small sea dike model showed the result consistent with the numerical analysis. The surface of sea side on the dike collapsed at high water level after a couple of repetition of the rising and falling of water.

  • This paper aims at developing the prediction technique of the deformation for the embankment such as sea dike and shore protection relevant to reclamation project along the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula. Generally total deformation of a sea dike over clayey foundation are composed of immediate settlement, plastic deformation and consolidation settlement. Plastic deformation occurs when the ultimate bearing capacity is less than overburden pressure containing the stress increment due to the construction of an embankment. The reliable prediction of total settlement is very important since deformed final geometry of sea dike is directly connected for analysing the safety of the long-term slope failure and piping. During this study, plastic deformation, major part of deformation was analysed using the program developed by authors, whereas immediate settlement and consolidation settlement were predicted by Mochinaka and Sena's method and Terzaghi's 1-dimensional theory of consolidation respectively. In order to validate the prediction technique for the deformation, a case study of Koheung Bay reclamation works was carried out. A good agreement was obtained between observation and prediction, which means the applicability of the technique.

  • In this study the pore water pressures were measured in sea dike constructed with the sand dredged in the sea, and they were analyzed with the hydraulic head loss rate to estimate quantitatively the state of blocking seepage in the sea dike embankment. Blocking state was expressed as the number between 0 and 1. the number of 1 means the state of perfectly blocking seepage and the number of 0 means the state of sea water being passing free. The deeper the installed position was the lower the hydraulic head loss rate was and the longer the seepage path length was the higher the hydraulic head loss rate was. The estimated R-squareds were close to 1, which means that the embankment was steady state without movement of soil particles.

  • When a sea-dike is constructed on soft soils, it is much difficult to calculate ground deformation caused by forced displacements. In this study , a series of laboratory model tests have been performed to investigate the ground deformation under a constructed sea-dike on soft soils. Construction sequence of sea-dike embankment was assumed such as constructed by quarry first and followed by soils adjacent to quarry embankment. as test data and displacement in subsoils have been analyzed, it seems that deformation is caused by general shear failure. the shape of ground deformation caused by forced displacements was well defined be parabola . Upon comparing profiles and depth of forced displacement from the model test to those based on stress-baring capacity method commonly used, it has been found that deformation prediction using stress-bearing capacity method was not exact at the edge of loading.

  • Numerical analyses were carried out for studying on seepage problems due to seawater intrusion through the embedded rock layers of the sea-dike. A seepage analysis model, SAMTLE was developed fur two-layer embankment system. The analyses by SAMTLE showed that the size of embedded rock layer had a significant effect on the seepage problems of sea-dike. If the embedded rock layer is longer and thicker, the seepage problems become more serious to water head, seepage rate and safety factor of piping in embankment. On the other hand, if the width of embedded rock layer is equivalent to the sea-dike's bottom width, the water head becomes lower and seepage rate and safety factor of piping are dramatically increasing. This makes another seepage problems such that the fresh water becomes saltier and higher seepage rates result in internal erosion of sea-dike.

  • The research has been done to obtain a empirical equation for the depth of replacement by the analysis of data collected from 8 sea-dike construction sites of south coast of Korean peninsula. The correlation analysis results show that the depth of replacement was mainly dependent upon the height of embankment and the undrained shear strength of soft soil. The suggested regression equation was quite well predicted the depth of replacement and recommended to use under certain restrictions where the embankment height was less than 10m and under 0.2 kgf/cm^{2} of the undrained shear strength of soil.

  • It is needed to install a one-way drainage filter to prevent a seepage from lake or river outside of embankment and to promote a drainage from a flood inside of embankment when dikes such as lake dike, river dike, etc are constructed. However, the results of research for one-way drainage filter are insufficient. Therefore, through the field test of one-way drainage filter, this study checked a function of one-way drainage filter with a test of performance. As a result of field test, water flow in dike was blocked in the interception direction of the section that one-way drainage filter was installed, but water passed to the flow allowance direction of the section. Therefore we confirmed the function of one-way drainage filter. Seepage quantity in the flow allowance direction of the one-way drainage filter section was low as 74.6~80.5 % than that in the section without installation of filter because of a reduction effect of seepage with filter. And seepage quantity of field test was low as 64.3~90.0 % than that in results of seepage analysis because the coefficient of permeability of embankment in field is different from the results of laboratory test. In the future, more study will be needed to solve several problems which are related to fix the filter on slide, durability of filter, etc.
