The temporary support system in Korea have been carried out generally along with installing supports, which are struts, anchors, rakers. However, most of existing support systems in application relatively have limitations such as cost increase, construction configuration, and displacement occurred with support systems. Thus, a new retaining support system(referred to as the SSR, NET No.533) was developed to solve the aforementioned problems. This study introduces the design, construction, and maintenance of the SSR system under the different construction conditions. The behavior and characteristics of the SSR system were identified based on the case studies.

Terrace deposits are often encountered in portal areas and tunnels with low overburden. They are challenging to excavate considering their great mechanical and spatial heterogeneity and a very high stiffness contrast within the ground. Terrace deposits are difficult to characterize, considering that samples for laboratory testing are almost unfeasible to obtain, and laboratory tests may not be representative due to scale effects. This paper presents the approach taken for their characterization during the design stage and their posterior validation performed during construction. Lessons learned from several tunnels excavated on terrace deposits on the Bogota-Villavicencio road (central-east Colombia), suggest that based on numerical simulations, laboratory testing and tunnel system behaviour monitoring, an observational approach allows engineers to optimize the excavation and support methods for the encountered ground conditions, resulting in a more economic and safe construction.

The study on prevention measures for vibration and excavation of tunnel for the #3, #4, Seoul Subway. In the Seoul subway tunnel blasting, the drilling pattern and prevention method to seismic vibration are as follows as well as for adaptions of NATM, the supportings of roof and wall holes are arranged with control blasting. 1. The blasting is executed basically using the low velocity explosive such as slurry, Nitrate ammonium explosive, and F-I and F-II explosive for control blasting substituting of existing dynamite. 2. The cut holes are arranged with burn cut pattern and also must be arranged with M/S electrical delay caps substituting of ordinary do]ay caps. 3. Jack leg drills are used in Five Job sites and a jumbo drill in one job site. 4. In performance of safety work and in maintenance of building safety. The drilling length for blasting will not exceed 1.20 meter for round so that the vibration value shall carry below 0.3cm/sec. The harmonizing of better powder, better drilling machine and better technique is only the way of improving tunnelling efficiency and less vibration will help the dereasing of accidence.

This research aims to demonstrate the regional and site scale groundwater flow simulation for the high level radioactive disposal research site in Yu-seong. We used the Modflow by a finite difference method for groundwater flow simulation, and Modpath module in Modflow package for particle tracking simulation. The range of numerical domain for regional groundwater flow model is $16.32km{\times}20.16km$. And, the depth of numerical domain was expanded to 6,000m. The area of numerical domain for the site scale groundwater flow simulation is $1.6km{\times}1.6km$. Since 2005, the underground research tunnel(URT) is being constructed at KAERI(Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) site. In the site scale groundwater flow model, the groundwater flow around the KAERI site is simulated. And the change of groundwater level with tunnel excavation is also predicted.

Field instrumentation and numerical analysis by the finite difference method were applied to estimate the relaxed zone in a subway tunnel of shallow depth in soft rock, excavated by NATM. The convergence and ground displacement can be used to estimate the deformation behavior and the relaxed zone. Parameters for the several models previously suggested were measured using regression analysis techniques adopting a function of time and the face advance. The estimated relaxed zone by the MPBX and FDM analysis were 1.5~3.0 m and 1.5~2.0 m, respectively. It was concluded that the visco-elastic model and the time-dependent elasto-plastic model correlate very well ($r^2$>0.9) with results of the numerical analyses.

Although a dry-system tunnel is not good for reasons fo economy and construction, it has been applied to some tunnels under construction owing to the advantages of good long-term maintenance of tunnel, prevention of consolidation settlement due to the drawdown of groundwater, preservation of the ecosystem, cutailment of operation cost, and so on. The stability of groundwater and the change of the applied water pressure after water proofing were analysed by the finite element method. Using this result, an example of designing the secondary lining for the dry-system tunnel which is to be constructed in low-permeability hard rock was presented.

토목공사장에서 암파쇄 작업은 경제성과 안정성에 지대한 영향을 미치는 작업이다. 본 논문은 대전지역에서 수행된 암파쇄 공법 설계 및 시공사례로서, 현장암반의 특성을 고려한 적정발파공법을 선정하기 위하여 대상 지역의 지질현황을 조사·분석하고, 또한 민원이 첨예한 도로개설 공사장에서 시험발파를 실시하여 이를 토대로 암절취 공법을 선정하여 시공한 사례보고이다. 대전지역의 지질은 선캠브리아기의 변성암류와 변성퇴적암류 및 이를 관입한 심성암류와 중생대 화강암으로 이루어져 있는 복잡한 분포를 이루고 있다. 사례연구 대상 현장은 편상구조가 현저한 관입 편상화강암 및 화강암질 편마암으로 구성되어 있었으며, 시험발파 및 분석결과를 기초로하여 25.5m이내 지역은 HRS 등 무진동 파쇄공법의 적용을 제안하였고, 25.5∼36m 범위의 대부분 지역은 진동제어를 할 수 있는 제어발파공법을 권장하였고, 기타 진동 영향권에서 비교적 안전한 것으로 나타난 지역은 소발파공법을 적용하도록 제안하였다. 제안된 안에 따라 설계를 보완하고 시공한 결과 문제의 발생없이 성공적으로 시공이 완료되었다.

This paper describes the method used to determine the optimal section for the horseshoe shaped single tunnel which is utitized widely in constructing subway tunnels. Vehicle and structural gauges conform to the design criteria for the Seoul Subway Line 5. The tunnel sections are determined considering the structural stability, and the tunnel excavation area is optimized so as to minimize design and construction costs.

The Soil-nailing installed to the slope or the vertical excavation surface shows reinforce effect using frictional resistance between ground and grout. This friction is showed the more the shape of grout is rough, the more efficient.. This study is about the characteristic behavior of Soil-nailing has partial extension grout made artificially control. In this study, we refer to the new boring machine that can make partially extended grout and perform 3D analysis between of the partial extended grout and the general grout of a cylinder shape using the finite element method for comparing.

The purpose of this study is to provide the technical information of the stability change and behaviour characteristics in case upward direction of soil nailing is installed. Generally, the soil nailing which installed in case of vertical excavation or for the purpose of the slope stability is installed between 5 to 15 degree of downward direction. The downward direction of the soil nailing method has lots of advantages such as the increase of the stability, the convenience of the grout compared to upward direction of soil nailing. Even though the upward direction of the soil nailing has the disadvantages in terms of the stability and the grout construction, horizontal displacement tends to be decreased.
