초록

암석의 파고역학적 특성은 암반 내의 자연균열들의 분포를 예측하거나 혹은 불연속면을 포함하는 암사면이나 지하구조물의 안정성을 해석하기 위한 중요한 자료로 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 암석의 파괴역학적의 특성의 차이를 측정하여 암종에 따른 제한적인 분포를 나타내는 자연균열에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 자연균열과 인공균열의 진행특성을 정성적 및 정량적인 기준에 의하여 분석한 결과, 기원이 다른 균열들은 성장특성에 있어서 뚜렷한 차이를 나타냄을 확인할 수 있다. 따라서, 암석 파괴역학적의 이론을 이용하여 암반 내에 분포하는 균열들의 기원이나 공학적 특성을 예측하기 위해서는 먼저 충분한 지질학적인 이론과 근거가 요구됨을 알 수 있다.

Fracture mechanics properties of rock materials can he applied to predict the distribution of natural fractures in rock masses, and also to assess the safety of rock slopes and underground structures. In this study, rock fracture toughness and other fracture rrechanics properties of sorne lithologies showing apparently rock-property-controlled distribution of natural fractures were measured. Propagation behaviors of natural and experirnental fractures were also characterized both qualitatively and quantitatively, in terns of the propagation types and sorne statistical parameters. It was concluded that the application of fracture mechanics theories to the ge6logic materials should be based on the geological background and evidences.
