Cheju island is situated at about 90km south of southern most tip of the Korean peninsula. Its shape is an ellips with size of 80$\times$40$km^2$, and it is characterized by a symmetrical form whose peak is Mt. Halla (1950m). Major chemical composition of the rock samples from Manjang gul cave is determined by XRF using the fundamental parameter method consisting of fully auto quantitative analysis, semi quantitative analysis (order estimation) and group quantitative analysis. Judging from chemical composition ($SiO_2 = 53.07Wt% Fe_2 O_3=11.34Wt%, MgO=6.48Wt%, Na_2 O=3.07Wt%, K_2 O=1.05Wt%$), this rocks may belong to non alkalic basalt. K-Ar ages of two rocks samples from the Manjang gul cave are also determined. The discrepancy of K-Ar ages is found. They are 0.03Ma and 0.42Ma, respectively. This paper describes some problems experienced in dating young volcanic rocks and then discusses chemical composition, X-ray fluorescence analysis and the age of the formation of a lava tunnel such as Manjang gul cave in cheju Island.

This study presents the application of genetic algorithms(GA) to the back analysis of tunnels. GA based on the theory of natural evolution, and have been evaluated very effective for their robust performances, particularly for optimizing structure problems. In the back analysis method, the selection of initial value and uncertainty of field measurements influence significantly on the analysis result. GA can improve this problems through a probabilistic approach. Besides, this technique have two other advantages over the back analysis. One is that it is not significantly affected by the form of problems. Another one is that it can consider two known parameter simultaneously. The propriety of this study is verified as the comparison in the same condition of the back analysis(Gens et al, 1987). In this study, it was performed to estimated the geotechnical parameters in the case of weak rock mass at the Kyung Bu Express railway tunnel. GA have been shown for effective application to a geotechnical engineering.

Bulk-Emulsion system은 미주나 서구 유럽 등지의 발파분야에 있어 선구적인 역할을 수행하여 왔던 나라에서는 이미 보편화된 시스템으로 ANFO 다음으로 노천이나 터널 굴진에 널리 적용되고 있다. Bulk-Emulsion system은 제조, 저장, 운반 및 사용에 있어서 극히 안전하고 장전밀도를 증가시켜 효과적인 파쇄와 굴진률 향상을 기대할 수 있으며 발파 후가스가 매우 양호한것을 비롯하여 기계화 장전에 따른 시공 능률 향상과 작업 안전성 강화 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고속도로 터널 현장에 국내 최초로 터널용 Bulk-Emulsion system을 이용하여 총 15회에 걸쳐 시험발파를 실시하였으며 이 결과를 토대로 하여 Bulk-Emulsion system 적용에 따른 효과와 문제점을 알아보고자 하였다.

일반적으로 도심지에서 터널 시공을 위한 암반굴착 작업은 주변 보안물건에 대해 직접적인 피해를 유발시킬 수 있는 공해요소인 진동을 허용기준값 이하로 제어할 수 있으면서 상대적으로 시공성과 경제성이 뛰어난 공법으로 수행되어야 한다. 본 사례에서는 각내의 대표적인 문화시설인 예술의 전당 하부를 통과하는 우면산 터널 공사현장에서 암반굴착공법으로 고려한 TTM 장비를 이용한 기계굴착, 플라즈마 공법, 유압장비를 이용한 할암공법, 겔파쇄 공법, 미진동파쇄기를 이용한 공법, 진동제어발파공법에 대한 현장 적용성을 시험시공 등을 통해 평가한 내용과 결과를 제시하였다. 비록 각 도심지 터널의 현장 상황이나 주변 여건에 따라 이 현장에서의 시험시공 내용이나 적용 결과를 그대로 적용할 수는 없겠지만, 진동제어 암반굴착 공법에 대한 시험시공이나 선정 과정에 이 사례연구가 개략적인 참고자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

In this study, effect of horizontal in situ stress on failure mechanism around underground openings excavated in isotropic, elastic rock zones is investigated. For estimating the plastic zone occurrence, an induced stress influence area approach (Bray Equations) was modified to define critical stress ratio according to the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. Results obtained from modified calculations were compared with results of some other analytical solutions for plastic zone thickness estimation and the numerical modelling (finite difference method software, FLAC2D) study. Plastic zone and its geometry around tunnels were analyzed for different in situ stress conditions. The modified equations gave similar results with those obtained from the other approaches. However, safer results were calculated using the modified equations for high in situ stress conditions and excessive ratio of horizontal to vertical in situ stresses. As the outcome of this study, the modified equations are suggested to use for estimating the plastic zone occurrence and its thickness around the tunnels with circular cross-section.

암반내 존재하는 단층은 암반거동에 중대한 영향을 미치게 되며, 특히 단층내에 충전물이 협재되어 있거나, 파쇄대가 넓게 발달한 경우에는 암반구조물의 안정성에 보다 심각한 문제를 가져오는 경우가 많다. 이는 단층의 불연속적인 거동과 충전물의 거동이 복합적으로 작용하게 되며, 장기적인 시간을 두고 나타나기 때문이다. 본 검토에서는 단층의 공학적 특성을 분석하고, 단층대 구간에서는 보강설계 사례 및 단층대 구간에서의 붕락사고로 인하여 문제가 발생한 현장사례분석을 통하여 단층이 암반사면이나 터널과 같은 암반 구조물에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 이를 통하여 단층과 점토 그리고 지하수 등의 복합거동에 의한 장기적이고 잠재적인 거동을 수반할 수 있는 단층의 공학적 문제점을 고찰하였다.

Stress-strain responses of weak-to-strong carbonate rocks used for tunnel construction were studied. The analysis of applicability of exponential stress-strain models based on Haldane's distribution function is presented. It is revealed that these exponential equations presented in transformed forms allow us to predict stress-strain relationships over the whole pre-failure strain range without mechanical testing of rock samples under compression using a press machine and to avoid measurements of axial failure strains for which relatively large values of compressive stress are required. In this study, only one point measurement (small strain at small stress) using indentation test and uniaxial compressive strength determined by a standard Schmidt hammer are considered as input parameters to predict stress-strain response from zero strain/zero stress up to failure. Observations show good predictive capabilities of transformed stress-stress models for weak-to-strong (${\sigma}_c$ <100 MPa) heterogeneous carbonate rocks exhibiting small (< 0.5 %), intermediate (< 1 %) and large (> 1 %) axial strains.

Migration tests were performed with conservative tracers in a fractured zone that had a single fracture of about 2.5 m distance at the KURT. To interpret the migration of the tracers in the fractured rock, a solute transport model was developed. A two dimensional variable aperture channel model was adopted to describe the fractured path and hydrology, and a particle tracking method was used for solute transport. The simulation tried not only to develop a migration model of solutes for open flow environments but also to produce ideas for a better understanding of solute behaviours in indefinable fracture zones by comparing them to experimental results. The results of our simulations and experiments are described as elution and breakthrough curves, and are quantified by momentum analysis. The main retardation mechanism of nonsorbing tracers, including matrixdiffusion, was investigated.

발파한 후 파쇄된 암석의 파쇄도는 발파효율을 나타내는 척도의 하나로서 발파방법을 평가하는 주요 인자이다. 파쇄도는 적재작업과 재활용을 위한 분쇄작업에 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러나 현장규모로 쌓여 있는 발파암 더미로부터 파쇄도를 조사한다는 것은 용이한 작업이 아니다. 본 논문에서는 현장 사례연구로서 터널발파에서 가장 중요한 요소인 심빼기 방법 중 경사공을 이용한 V형 심빼기와 수평공 무장약공을 이용한 Bum 심빼기 발파방법중 파쇄도 측면에서 더 효율적인 방법을 선택하기 위하여 발파후 파쇄된 암을 사진 촬영하여 이미지 분석을 실시하고 몇 가지 파쇄입도 예측식을 이용한 분석 결과와 비교하였다.
