Reinforced earth wall system has been popularized since its introduction to Korean civil engineering society in early 1980's. Nowadays, the increased use of reinforced earth wall for the purpose of obtaining more land brings several additional demands such as environmental-friendly, better stable and constructible, and economical system. This paper introduces some recently developed reinforced earth wall systems with consideration of the current demands.

In this study, the numerical analyses regarding the distance between the guardrail and the reinforced earth wall as parameter were performed to determine the safe distance of guardrail installed on reinforced earth wall from the reinforced earth wall. The analyses were fulfilled by increasing the distance between the guardrail and reinforced earth wall from 150mm to 750mm. The computer program used in this research is LS-DYNA, which is very' popular in analysis of vehicle collision. Ford single unit truck in NCAC was employed as the model of vehicle and the velocity of vehicle collision was 80km/hr. As a results of analyses, the safety of guardrail was secured regardless of the distance between the guardrail and block of reinforced earth wall. However, to secure the safety of block of reinforced earth wall the distance between the guardrail and block of reinforced earth wall should be over 600mm.

Recently, construction of soil-reinforced segmental retaining walls which used geosynthetics are being increased day by day due to its construction efficiency, economic efficiency, and its aesthetic view. The conventional reinforced earth retaining wall has the connector system to fix the reinforcement and block However, this system may cause the crack of block and the rupture of reinforcement due to the stress concentration near the face of reinforced earth retaining wall In this study, the new connector system, which is able to allow the settlement of reinforcement, was applied to analyze the effect of connector system of reinforced earth retaining wall The connection strength tests and centrifugal tests for both the conventional reinforced earth retaining wall and the settlement reinforced earth retaining wall were performed to compare the results

기존의 보강토 옹벽의 연구는 보강토 옹벽의 내적 외적파괴에 중점이 되어 연구가 이루어져 왔고 외부 충격에 관한 연구는 지진에 관한 것이 전부인 것이 현실이다. 도로의 발달로 인해서 도로 주변의 보강토 옹벽에 차량의 충돌 같은 외부 충격을 받는 경우가 늘어나고 있다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 신뢰도를 인정받고 있는 범용 유한요소 프로그램인 LS-DYNA를 사용하여 도로 주변 보강토 옹벽을 모델링하였고, NCAC에서 제공하는 8톤 중량의 Ford single unit truck을 이용하여 차량속도에 따른 보강토 옹벽의 거동 양상을 분석하였다. 그리고 향후 도로 주변에 시공되어지는 보강토 옹벽의 충돌에 관한 안정성을 확보하기 위해서 하단에 중력식 옹벽을 적용하였고 또한 높이를(0.5m, 1.0m, 1.5m) 변화시켜가면서 수치해석을 수행하여 보강토 옹벽의 거동을 분석하고 보강토 옹벽의 안정성을 확인 하였다.

As the reinforced earth wall is constructed with step by step backfill compaction method, the accumulative horizontal deformation is inevitable. It has been reported that about 80% of horizontal deformation is occurred during the construction stage of reinforced earth retaining wall. To reduce the horizontal deformation, an isolated-reinforced earth wall method(KOESWall system) was newly developed. In this system, the reinforced earth is constructed first with reinforcements and backfills only, and then facing blocks are installed after the horizontal displacement of reinforced earth is fully occurred. To evaluate the effect of a construction method and the performance of KOESWall system, two cases of full scale field performance was monitored during and after the construction stages.

Since 1984, block-type reinforced earth wall with geogrid reinforcement has been widely used for retaining wall applications till now in Korea. The use of geogrid as a reinforcement in the reinforced earth wall is steadily increased in an amount over $6,500,000m^2$ in a year. However, still need exists that some problems in design and construction practices should be made to review. Therefore, this paper reviewed current state and development items of geosynthetics-reinforced earth wall technology on design and construction point of view.

The model was developed by applying the principles of Bacot and Vidal to measure the behavior of deformation of the reinforced earth wall, and various tasts were performed by using the plastic fabric filter and the galvanized steel plate as a strip. The results obtained are as follows; 1. When the reinforced earth wall is deformed by the load, the strip is completely reinforced by the backfill materials and changed to the rigid block state, under the state of failure which permits sliding only, the next theoretical equation is formed. (H/L) . tan$\theta$ [cosO-sinOtanO] =2sinO[tan($\theta$ +0) +tanO] 2.The degree of the mutual reinforcement of the backfill material and the strip depend on the physical characteristics of the each material especially the angle of shearing resistance of the backfill material is desirable over 20$^{\circ}$ and, if it is over 400, its function could be a maximum. 3.The distribution of the maximum tensile strain of the reinforcement is changing with the height of reinforced earth wall, and when the height from bottom of the reinforced earth wall is 1.85 to 3. 35m, the maximum tensile strain appears at 2m from the skin element. The maximum tensile strain is increased by the depth of the reinforced earth wall from surface, and increased with the lapse of time after construction. 4.The failure surface of the reinforced earth wall by the concrete skin was about 60$^{\circ}$and the failure behavior of the reinforced earth wall in which the fabric filter was buried was slow, and so the pore pressure could be decreased. 5.It is possible to construct the fabric retained earth wall by the plastic fabric filter only. And the reinforcing effect between the steel plate and the plastic fabric filter is not largely different. however, in the aspect of the economic durability, the plastic fabric filter is more advantageous. 6.The reinforcing action mainly depends on the width and the length of the reinforcing materials, if possible, the full width is advantageous to enlarge the contact area with backfill. but considering the economic aspect, it is neccessary to develop the method controlling the space of the strip.

Since 1984, block-type reinforced earth wall with geogrid reinforcement has been widely used for retaining wall applications till now in Korea. The use of geogrid as a reinforcement in the reinforced earth wall is steadily increased in an amount over 1,500,000㎡ in a year However, still need exists that some problems in design and construction practices should be made to review, Therefore, this paper reviewed reasonable criteria for selection of backfills, design details considering the effect of the upper soil slope on reinforced earth wall, horizontal displacement of facing block during compaction, and the damage of geogrid reinforcements on the edge part of facing block. Finally, alternative methods of measures on those problems are proposed.

모형 보강토 옹벽을 실내에 축조하여 벽체의 연속성과 강성이 벽체의 거동 및 안정성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 완전 연속 전면판과 일반적으로 사용되는 블록식 비연속 전면판을 설계하여 모형실험에 적용하였다. 따라서 각각의 전면판에 따라 서로 다른 축조방법과 축조순서가 채택되었다. 모형 보강토옹벽은 상용의 지오그리드 보강재와, 주문진 표준사를 사용하여 강성지반 상에 축조하였으며 토압계, 변위계 및 보강재 상에 부착된 변형율계 등을 사용하여 거동을 추적하였다. 두 벽체에 대한 시험으로부터 연속 강성 벽체를 가진 보강토 옹벽이 일반적인 블록식 전면판 보강토 옹벽에 비해 안정적인 거동을 보임을 확인하였다.

보강토 공법은 공사비가 저렴하고 시공이 용이하다는 점에서 토목공학 분야의 실용적 측면에서 가치가 있으며 기술자에게 큰 매력을 줄 수 있을 만큼 그 구조가 충분히 단순하다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 5개 현장을 대상으로 각종 계측기를 매설하여 보강토 옹벽 벽체에 작용하는 수평토압과 보강재의 인장변형률 및 인장응력, 전면블록의 수평변위 등을 측정하여 보강토 옹벽의 안정성 및 토압특성을 평가하였다. 평가 결과, 보강토 옹벽은 전면블록의 수평변위의 경우 0.19∼0.76%로 작게 평가되었으며, 보강재의 최대인장변위는 0.66∼1.98%로 경험적으로 고려되는 보강재의 설계 인장변형률인 5%에 휠씬 못 미치는 것으로 평가되었다. 한편, 토압분포 특성은 기존 설계 방법에 이용되는 랭킨 이나 쿨롱 토압 분포 형태와 달리 연성 토류벽체에 작용하는 사다리꼴 형태의 토압분포를 나타내었다.
