Conventional geotechnical instrumentation techniques available for monitoring of slopes, especially soil-nailed slopes have limitations such as electromagnetic interference, low accuracy, poor longterm reliability and difficulty in mounting a series of strain sensors on a soil nail bar with a small-diameter. This paper presents a slope monitoring system based on fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensing technology. This monitoring system is designed to perform long-term monitoring of slope movements, strains along soil nails, and other slope reinforcement elements. All these FBG sensors are fabricated and calibrated in laboratory and a trial of this monitoring system has been successfully conducted on a roadside slope in Hong Kong. As part of the slope stability improvement works, soil nails and a toe support soldier-pile wall were constructed. During the slope works, more than 100 FBG sensors were installed on a soil nail, a soldier pile, and an in- place inclinometer. The paper presents the layout and arrangement of the instruments as well as the installation procedures adopted. Monitoring data have been collected since March 2008. This trial has demonstrated the great potential of the optical fibre monitoring system for long-term monitoring of slope performance. The advantages of the slope monitoring system and experience gained in the field implementation are also discussed in the paper.

인공강우발생장치를 이용하여 4년간 대구 동구지역에 발생한 산불발생지를 대상으로 산불발생지사면의 토양침식량을 계량화하기 위하여 산불발생 후 경과년수에 띠라 각 지역에 대한 강우강도 및 경사별로 토양침식량을 관측하여 산불발생지의 토양침식 특성을 구명하고, 또한 토양침식량과 강우강도, 경사, 경과년수와의 관계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 산불발생연도별 토양침식량은 강우강도가 30 mm/hr씩 증가함에 따라서 1.9~5.7배 증가하였고, 경사가 $10^{\circ}$씩 증가함에 따라서는 1.4~14.2배 증가하였다. 2. 산불발생당년에는 강우강도 80 mm/hr, 경사 $30^{\circ}$에 대해 초기 강우 10분 동안 토양침식이 많이 발생하였으며, 시간이 경과할수록 점차 그 양이 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 산불발생 후 2년 뒤부터는 강우강도 및 경사별로 경과시간에 따른 토양침식량은 거의 일정하였다. 3. 산불발생 후 경과년수에 따라 강우강도 및 경사별 토양침식량은 산불발생 3년 후의 경우 발생당년에 비해 28.9%~94.1%로 감소하였고, 산불발생당년에는 강우강도 및 경사별로 토양침식량이 많았으며, 산불발생 후 2년 뒤부터 점차 토양침식량의 감소추세가 둔화되었다. 4. 산불발생지사면에서의 토양침식량에 대해 각 인자간의 영향성을 분석한 결과, 강우강도, 경사, 경과년수의 각각의 주효과와 강우강도${\times}$경사, 강우강도${\times}$경과년수의 상호작용 효과에 대해서는 차이를 보였고, 경사${\times}$경과년수, 강우강도${\times}$경사${\times}$경과년수의 상호작용 효과에 대해서는 차이가 없었다. 토양침식량에 영향을 미치는 인자의 영향도는 강우강도가 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 다음이 경사, 경과년수의 순이었다. 5. 토양침식량과 이에 영향을 미치는 인자들과의 상관관계에 있어서, 강우강도, 경사간에는 1%수준에서 유의적인 정(+)의 상관관계가 있었고, 경과년수는 1%수준에서 유의적인 부(-)의 상관관계가 나타났다. 6. 토양침식량과 이에 영향을 미치는 인자들과의 회귀분석 결과, 산불발생지사면에서 토양침식량을 설명하는데 유의한 인자는 강우강도, 경사, 경과년수이었다. 7. 강우강도, 경사, 경과년수를 이용하여 다음과 같은 토양침식량 추정식을 산출하였다. S.E = 0.092R.I + 0.211D.S - 0.942E.Y(S.E : 토양침식량, R.I: 강우강도, D.S: 경사, E.Y: 경과년수)

A framework alternative to that of classical slope stability analysis is developed, wherein the soil mass is treated as a continuum and in situ soil stresses and strengths are computed accurately using inelastic finite element methods with general constitutive models. Within this framework, two alternative methods of stability analysis are presented. In the first, the strength characteristics of the soil mass are held constant, and the gravitational loading on the slope system is increased until failure is initiated by well-defined mechanisms. In the second approach, the gravity loading on the slope system is held constant, while the strength parameters of the slope mass are gradually decreased until well-defined failure mechanisms developed. Details on the applying both of the proposed methods, and comparisons of their characteristics on a number of solved example problems are presented.

The MUSLE was utilized in this study to estimate soil erosion using daily precipitation which was main influential factor in soil loss estimation. Various scenarios were simulated to evaluate how transition of slope, agricultural products and precipitation could affect soil loss in the field. It was found that slope was the most affecting factor in soil loss estimation. Especially 1.8 times the soil loss was expected with potato at 45% slope compared with codonopsis at same slope with MUSLE model. Fortunately, farmers had planted codonopsis at this slope to reduce soil erosion from this steep slope. As shown in this study, the MUSLE method could be utilized to determine optimum crop type for each field with various slope conditions to minimize soil erosion. This approach utilized in this study could be applied to other agricultural watersheds to evaluate various soil erosion conditions.

This study was conducted to improve the stability of cut slopes of forest roads in granitic weathered soil areas. The study area is a national forest road (road length 28.48 km) in Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do. After data collection, a statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS (Ver. 26.0). First, the correlation analysis showed that structure, slope position, soil erosion, slope, and aspect (N, S) were correlated with vegetation coverage (p < 0.05). Elapsed years, slope distance, and aspect (E, W) were found to have no correlation with vegetation coverage. (p > 0.05) Second, one-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test results showed that vegetation coverage was worse when the slope was located at the top or the middle of the slope than at the bottom of the slope. In addition, the site with sheathing and gabions showed good vegetation coverage when compared with the site without structures. In the case of soil erosion, areas with severe damage and moderate damage showed worse vegetation coverage. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the slope angle of the cut soil of the granitic weathered soil area from 1 : 0.5 - 1.2 to 1 : 0.8 - 1.5. In addition, structures such as sheathing and gabions should be installed on granitic weathered land.

본 연구의 목적은 토양침식에 관련되는 강우특성, 토양경사도, 그리고 지질특성의 상대적인 중요도를 규명하는데 있다. 이 목적을 달성하기 위하여, 강우강도, 토양경사도, 지질특성의 각각 다른 조건에서 실내 인공강우실험 및 현장조사를 실시하였다. 실내시험 결과에 의하면, 토양침식량은 토양 경사도가 강우강도보다 크게 영향을 받았다. 유출량은 강우량에 비례하며, 점토함량이 높을수록 증가한다. 따라서 토양의 유기물과 점토 함량이 큰 토양에서 토양침식량이 크게 증가 하였다. 현장시험 결과로는 토양경사가 큰 지역 및 퇴적암 지역보다 변성암 지역에서 보다 큰 침식량이 계산되었다. 이러한 실험의 결과는 토양침식량을 예측하는 모델개발에 있어서 기반암 풍화의 산물인 토양에서의 지질특성이 침식 및 침식후의 퇴적특성을 잘 반영하고 있음을 보여준다.

The movement of soil along a slope during rainfall can cause serious economic damage and can jeopardize human life. Accordingly, predicting slope stability during rainfall is a major issue in geotechnical engineering. Due to rainwater penetrating the soil, the negative pore water pressure will decrease, in turn causing a loss of shear strength in the soil and ultimately slope failure. More seriously, many constructions such as houses and transmission towers built in/on slopes are at risk when the slopes fail. In this study, the numerical simulation using 2D finite difference program, which can solve a fully coupled hydromechanical problems, was used to evaluate the effects of soil properties, rainfall conditions, and the location of a foundation on the slope instability and slope failure mechanisms during rainfall. A slope with a transmission tower located in Namyangju, South Korea was analyzed in this study. The results showed that the correlation between permeability and rainfall intensity had an important role in changing the pore water pressure via controlling the infiltrated rainwater. The foundation of the transmission tower was stable during rainfall because the slope failure was estimated to occur at the toe of the slope, and did not go through the foundation.

The effect of heavy construction equipment on the excavated slope is investigated by slope stability analysis. A mobile crane with 500 kN capacity is applied as a working load to the background surface of the excavated slope, in both sandy soil and clay, designed to guarantee the safety of slope stability. Major parameters such as the distance between the edge of the slope and the mobile crane, groundwater level, and ground plate size of the mobile crane are considered. Only 23.8% and 14.3% of the analysis models with sandy soil and clay excavated slope, respectively, satisfied the slope stability. By changing the slope of the sandy soil from 1:1.0 to 1:1.2, the number of analysis models securing slope stability increased from 23.8% to 40.5%. For the clay excavated slope, the analysis models securing slope stability increased from 14.3% to 42.9% by changing slope inclination from 1:0.8 to 1:1.2. In addition, it is found that the increase in the size of the ground plate of the mobile crane increases the analysis models that secure slope stability. Therefore, it is an effective way to relax the excavated slope's inclination angle and simultaneously increase the ground plate size to guarantee stability.
