Abstract

Bentonite slurries in a slurry wall construction must fulfill a stabilizing function by forming impermeable membrane (surface cake and penetrated cake) on the excavated soil faces. Thus problems are occurring in practice for the construction of diaphram walls and cut-off walls with a low permeability for wastes disposal areas in some deep excavations or different grounds. In this paper, the fundamental mechanics of fluid loss and filter cake formation in various soil beds are investigated using large scale laboratory apparatus. The sealing efficiency of filter cake from the large scale tests and the significance of fluid loss in a slurry trench are utilized for practical situation as a recommended design procedure.

안정액(bentonite slurry)을 이용한 지하연속벽의 건설은 굴착된 trench 내에서 안정액이 침투케익과 표면케익을 포함한 불투수막을 형성함으로서 trench 의 안정성을 유지할 수가 있다. 그러므로 구조용 지하연속벽 건설이나 폐기물 매립장의 차수용 연속벽 건설시 지반조건 및 주변여건의 변화에 의하여 여러 가지 문제가 발생 될 수 있다. 본 논문은 안정액 유출과 불투수케익 형성과정을 대형실험으로 모델링하여 그 결과가 slurry trench 안정성에 미치는 영향을 평가하고, 현장조건에 적합한 설계절차를 제시하였다.
