An active application of concrete track is being expected for the future constructions of Korean railroad. For the successful concrete track construction and design in earthwork areas, the roadbed behavior should be reasonably estimated using the proper analysis method. In this paper, behaviors of concrete track on the reinforced roadbed constructed with the standard stiffness and depth were estimated thorough numerical analyses and field measurements. A three dimensional finite difference method was employed to model the concrete tracks and subground. The settlement and vertical pressures caused by train load were estimated by the numerical method and compared with the field measurement results. The bearing characteristics of roadbed were presented and the proper method for the analysis of concrete track was proposed.

도심지에서의 터널은 주로 얕은 토층비에서 이루어진다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 토층비 1, 2 정도의 얕은 터널에 대한 터널시공을 고려하였다. 또한, 도심지 얕은 터널에서 겪게 되는 어려움 중 하나인 지상구조물의 손상을 방지하는 것이다. 이러한 경우, 구조물의 손상을 방지하기 위해 소형장비로 간단하고 저렴한 시공이 가능한 마이크로 파일공법의 채택이 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로 파일의 설치위치와 설치각도 및 두부 고정도를 달리한 실험을 실시하여 토압 및 지표면 침하를 중심으로 그 영향을 평가하였다. 마이크로 파일의 설치위치에 있어서 거리비(A/L$_{p}$) 0.5 이내에서 침하감소면에서 대략 22%~37% 정도의 효과가 있었으며, 마이크로 파일의 두부는 파일간 서로 결속하는 것이 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 경향은 토압분포에서도 마찬가지이다.다.

Interest to basal reinforced piled embankments is increasing recently due to their rapid construction and reliability. A comprehensive parametric study is conducted to determine effects of pile properties, reinforcement stiffness, embankment properties and soft soil properties into settlements, pressures and excess pore water pressure development and dissipations. Results which are obtained by using one-layer reinforcement during construction are compared with the results obtained by using two-layer reinforcement during construction. Finite element method is used during the parametric study. Second layer of reinforcement is placed in five different positions in order to reveal effects of reinforcement position into behaviour. Traffic load is also taken into consideration during the study. Differences between the results without presence of traffic loading and with presence of traffic loading is stated in this the study.

It is very important to select carefully backfill materials and build for the structural integrity of abutment in bridge. In general, backfill materials of unbound crushed stones (SB-1) are used to provide the safety of abutment structure and to reduce differential settlement around abutment that is significantly related with performance of road pavement under working conditions. In this study, to evaluate the compatibility of backfill materials at abutment and to develop the abutment design program, i) basic properties of subgrade soils in Korea, ii) evaluation of deformational characteristics of backfill materials from RC/TS tests, cyclic TX tests and Creep tests were accomplished.

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.

This study aimes at investigating the applicability of single surface work - hardening model(7, 8) to clayey soils through FEM analysis. The comparison was carried out for the results between numericaL analysis and cubical triaxial tests in which confined stress was applied differently and 3-directional principal stress can be controlled. Furthermore, the results of the numerical analysis were compared with observed values of load test on the 2-dimensional model foundation composed of clayey soils. The agreement between nu- merical and observed values proved to be of high accuracy, which indicates that numeri- cal techniques developed during this study using the model can be used for the prediction of settlement, leteral displacement and pore water pressure of actual soft foundation of clayey soils.

The analysis about consolidation characteristic in soft clay has been depending one-dimension consolidation analysis. but, drain and undrain zone are explicated as homogeneous by consolidation behavior following consoli- dated settlementsoft in soft clay. 1) Established sand drain in soft clay in many types, and measured water content, unconfined compression strength, vertical stress, horizontal stress, vertical settlement, pore water pressure. 2) Arranged the result from the test and numerically explicated effective stress, total stress, and effective stress path at the drain and undrain zone. 3) We also analyzed and comparied elastic and elastic-plastic in soft clay using measured data. The result analyzed does not approach to a special theory, but, it is well in accord with the result of other investigator's study in the same condition.

Contemporary concrete structures make use of underground spaces as parking lots and other comfort facilities for efficiency purposes. As underground environmental conditions are in constant exposure to degradation factors from the environment such as groundwater, hydraulic and soil pressure, structural movement and settlement, structural defects in the form of leakage occur. Current maintenance regulations and regimes are unable to respond to this field, as degradation mechanisms in underground environments are still unclear. In this regard, this study proposes the utilization of integrated information sharing system that can provide various technical information for construction designs to prevent leakages in underground concrete structures.

The use of compaction grouting system(C.G.S) evolved in the 1950's to correct structural settlement of buildings. Over the almost 50 years, the technology has developed and is currently used in wide range of applications. Compaction Grouting, the injection of a very stiff 'zero-slump' mortar grout under relatively high pressure, displaces and compacts soils. It can effectively repair natural or man-made soil strength deficiencies in variety of soil formations. Major uses of Compaction Grouting include densifying loose soils or fill voids caused by sinkholes, poorly compacted fills, broken utilities, improper dewatering, or soft ground tunneling excavation. Other application include preventing liquefaction, re-leveling settled structures, and using compaction grout bulbs as structural elements of minipiles or underpinning. So, on the basis of the case history constructed in recent year, a study has been performed to analyze the basic mechanism of the Compaction Grouting and verify the effectiveness of the ground improvement.

The analysis of static and dynamic characteristics of reinforced roadbed materials was performed through model and laboratory tests. The strength characteristic of reinforced roadbed materials such as HMS-25 and soil were investigated through the unconfined axial compression test, the model soil box test and the combined resonant column and torsional shear test. The unconfined axial compression strength of HMS-25 shows a steady increasement in strength due to the chemical hardening reaction between HMS-25 and water. The result of model soil box test reveals that railroad roadbed of HMS-25 is better than that of soil in several aspects, such as, bearing capacity and settlement. The combined resonant column and torsional shear test result indicates that shear modulus of HMS-25 and soil increase with the power of 0.5 to the confining pressure and linear relationship to normalized shear modulus and damping ratio.
