노상층의 지지력을 평가하는 일반적인 방법의 하나로 현장 CBR(California Bearing Ratio) 시험이 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 현장 CBR은 시간과 비용이 많이 소모되어 포장층의 강도특성을 단시간에 파악하기에는 어려운 단점이 있다. 최근에는 보다 신속하고 경제적인 방법으로 동적 콘관입시험(Dynamic Cone Penetrometer, DCP)이 많이 이용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 폐석회를 혼합한 현장모형 노상토에 대하여 현장 CBR 시험과 DCP 시험을 수행하여 현장 지지력을 평가하였으며, 현장 CBR 값과 DCP 지수에 대한 상관관계를 분석하였다. 사용한 폐석회는 인천의 화학공장에서 소다회($Na_2CO_3$)를 생산하는 공정에서 부수적으로 발생하는 부산물이며, 현장시험에서는 현장함수비, 현장밀도, 현장 CBR 시험, DCP 시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과로부터 폐석회 활용도로 노상층에 대한 DCP지수를 제안하였다.

In this study, in-situ dynamic tests of the world's longest steel box tied-arch bridge over the Yangtze River, China, are reported. The double deck bridge supports highway and monorail systems at upper and lower levels, respectively. Strain, displacement, and acceleration responses were measured and used to investigate the vibration characteristics of the bridge when excited by running trains and/or trucks at a speed of 5-60 km/h, train braking, and truck bouncing. Impact factors were correlated with the running speed of trains and trucks. A three-dimensional finite element model of the coupled monorail-train-bridge vibration system accounting for track irregularities was established to understand the system behavior and validated by the experimental results. Truck bouncing was the dominant impact factor on bridge responses. The running speed of vehicles determined the riding comfort of traveling trains.

Shear modulus has been recognized as one of the important soil properties in dynamic analysis of ground and can be calculated from in situ measurement of shear wave velocity. Field seismic tests are the most accurate but expensive methods to investigate dynamic ground characteristics. Due to that reason, empirical equations for estimating the shear wave velocity are widely used rather than conducting in-situ tests. The most common equations are based on the N value obtained in conjuctions with a standard penetration test. In this paper, the field datas of standard penetration test and suspension PS logging measured in 126 sites of Korea were summarized and the correlation equations between N value and shear wave velocity are suggested.

In this study, the dynamic behavior of a three-span hybrid continuous arch bridge under vehicle loading is investigated. The natural vibration characteristics of the bridge were analyzed through pulsation test. In the dynamic loading test, the vibrations of the bridge under different truck speeds and different pavement conditions were tested, and time histories of deflection and acceleration of the bridge were measured. Based on the dynamic loading test, the impact coefficient was analyzed. The results indicate that the pavement smoothness had more impacts on the vibration of the bridge than the truck's speed. The vertical damping of the bridge under the excitation of the trucks is larger than the transverse damping. Resonance occurs at the side span of the bridge under a truck at 10 km/h.

아스팔트 포장에서 노상층의 상태를 평가하는 방법 중 하나로 현장 CBR(California Bearing Ratio)시험이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 현장 CBR 시험의 경우 시험특성상 시간과 비용이 많이 소모되어 광활한 구간에서의 각 구간별 포장층의 현장강도 특성을 일일이 파악하기란 매우 힘든 단점이 있다. 이에 현장에서 보다 신속하고 경제적으로 포장 지지력을 측정하는 방법으로 동적관입시험 (Dynamic Cone Penetrometer DCP)이 많이 사용되고있다. 이미 외국의 경우 많은 실내 외 시험을 통하여 CBR 값과 DCP 시험을 통한 DCP지수(DCP Index, mm/blow)간의 상관관계가 연구되어 왔으며 최근에 국내에서도 연구가 수행되었으나 실내에 국한된 것이었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내현장에서 사용중인 노상토에 대한 현장 CBR값과 DCP지수에 대한 상관관계를 파악하는 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 통해 국외 자료와 비교하며 국내에서 노상토의 지지력을 평가하기 위한 DCP지수를 제안하고자 하였다. 연구결과, 노상층에서의 CBR 시험방법과 동적관입시험법간 상관관계식을 제시하였으며 국내 노상토의 지지력은 현장CBR값이 20$\sim$45% 범위로 설계시 CBR값을 고려한다면 상당히 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, in-situ static and dynamic tests of four pre-stressed concrete (PC) track beams with different span lengths and curvatures in a straddle monorail transit system were reported. In the static load tests, the strain and deflection at critical sections of the PC track beams were measured to determine the load bearing capacity and stiffness. The dynamic responses of strain, deflection, acceleration, and displacement at key positions of the PC track beams were measured under different train speeds and train loads to systematically study the dynamic behaviors of the PC track beams. A three-dimensional finite element model of the track beam-vehicle coupled vibration system was established to help understand the dynamic behavior of the system, and the model was verified using the test results. The research results show that the curvature, span length, train speed, and train loads have significant influence on the dynamic responses of the PC track beams. The dynamic performance of the PC track beams in the curve section is susceptible to dynamic loads. Appropriate train loads can effectively reduce the impact of the train on the PC track beam. The PC track beams allow good riding comfort.

Stiffness characteristic of subgrade is one of the most important aspects for the design and evaluation of pavement and railway. However, adequate field testing methods for evaluating the stiffness characteristics of the subgrade have not been developed yet. In this study, an in-situ dynamic stiffness analyzer (IDSA) is developed to evaluate the characteristics of subgrade stiffness along the depth, and its performance is evaluated in elastic materials and a compacted soil. The IDSA consists of a falling hammer system, a connecting rod, and a tip module. Four strain gauges and an accelerometer are installed at the tip of the rod to analyze the dynamic response of the tip generated by the drop of hammer. Based on the Boussinesq's method, the stiffness and Young's modulus of the specimens can be calculated. The performance of IDSA was tested on three elastic materials with different hardness and a compacted soil. For the repeatability of test performance, the dynamic signals for force and displacement of the tip are averaged from the hammer impact tests performed five times at the same drop height. The experimental results show that the peak force, peak displacement, and the duration depend on the hardness of the elastic materials. After calculating the stiffness and elastic modulus, it is revealed that as the drop height of hammer increases, the stiffness and elastic moduli of MC nylon and the compacted soil rapidly increase, while those of urethanes less increase.

In-situ penetration tests using dynamic penetrometers are widely used for estimating soil resistance. Additionally, these dynamic penetrometers have been instrumented to improve tests accuracy. This paper introduces smart instrumented dynamic penetrometers and discusses experimental studies for various cases. An energy monitoring module was developed to enhance the dynamic penetration tests. The standard penetration test (SPT) and instrumented dynamic cone penetrometer (IDCP) tests were conducted using the energy monitoring module. Dynamic responses obtained by the energy monitoring module were used to calculate the transferred energies into the rod head and tip to correct the evaluation of ground strength. In addition, a crosshole-type dynamic penetrometer (CDP) was developed to measure the penetration index and shear wave velocity simultaneously to estimate the strength and stiffness of ground. The results of this study indicate that smart instrumented dynamic penetrometers may be effectively used to characterize the strength and stiffness of ground.

국내의 대표적 암종이라 할 수 있는 화강암체와 편마암체에 대해 탄성계수 측정 방법으로 자주 이용되고 있는 Goodman jack시험, PS검층, 초음파 속도측정, 일축압축 변형 시험을 실시하여 각 탄성계수를 측정하고 그 특징을 알아보았다. 실내에서 측정 된 동.정탄성계수는 측정시 가해진 응력의 크기, 측정시 이용된 주파수의 범위, 가압/감압 등의 측정 조건에 따라 상당히 다른 결과를 보였다. 실내 측정조건이 현장조건에 가까워질수록 현장암반의 탄성 계수와 비슷한 값으로 측정되는데 이는 실내시험시 현장 상태를 구현하는 것이 중요하다는 점을 시사한다. 동탄성계수는 정탄성계수에 비해 대체로 높게 측정되었으며 그 원인으로는 (미세)균열의 응력에 따른 거동양상, 측정시 이용한 주파수의 범위 차이, 그리고 변형 진폭의 차이 등의 효과로 설명 할 수 있다. 다양한 방법으로 측정된 각 탄성 계수 상호간의 관계 및 특징은 현장 암반 탄성계수의 적절한 판단을 위해 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Thick soft clay deposits which are generally located at the west and south coast of the Korean peninsula have complicated characteristics according to their orientation and formation history. Thus, several geotechnical problems could possibly occur when those soft clay deposits are used as foundations for marine structures. Deep cement mixing (DCM) method is one of the most widely used soft soil improvement method for various marine structures, nowadays. DCM method injects binders such as cement into the soft ground directly and mixes with the in-situ soil to improve the strength and other geotechnical properties sufficiently. However, the natural impacts induced by dynamic motions such as ocean waves, wind, typhoon, and tusnami give significant influences on the stability of marine structures and their underlaying foundations. Thus, the dynamic properties become important design criteria to insure the seismic stability of marine structures. In this study, the dynamic behavior of cemented Busan clay is evaluated. Laboratory unconfined compression test and resonant column test are performed on natural in-situ soil and cement mixed specimens to confirm the strength and strain-dependent dynamic behavior variation induced by cement mixing treatment. Results show that the unconfined compressive strength and shear modulus increase with curing time and cement content increment. Finally, the optimized cement mixing ratio for sufficient dynamic stability is obtained through this study. The results of this study are expected to be widely used to improve the reliability of seismic design for marine structures.
