초록

불포화지반에서 발생되는 부 간극수압은 함수비 변화에 따라 비선형적인 거동을 보이며, 이 관계를 흙-수분 특성곡선(soil-water characteristic curve)이라고 정의한다. 현재까지 우리나라의 흙에 대한 흙-수분 특성의 연구결과는 거의 전무한 실정이기 때문에 불포화 지반의 응력해석 및 침투해석 시, 마땅히 입력할 계수나 특성값이 없다. 본 연구에서는 준설매립지반의 주요 토사인 준설토와 모래, 그리고 복토재로 사용되는 화강풍화토에 대한 흙수분 특성시험을 실시하여 흙-수분 특성을 규명하였으며, 해석적 검증을 통하여 불포화 지반의 응력해석 및 침투해석 시 필요한 계수를 분석하였다. 또한, 입도분포곡선으로부터 흙수분 특성곡선 예측모델을 적용하고 흙수분 특성시험 결과와 비교 검토하였다. 흙-수분 특성시험결과, 세 가지 시료 모두 뚜렷한 히스테리시스 현상을 나타내었으며, 기존에 제안된 경험방정식에 실험결과를 적용한 결과 Fredlund and Xing의 경험방정식은 세 가지 시료 모두에 대하여 높은 정확도를 나타내었다. 한편, 입도분포를 이용한 예측모델은 Fredlund and Wilson의 방법이 가장 높은 정확도를 나타내었다. 흙-수분 특성시험결과와 다양한 예측모델을 통하여 불포화 투수계수를 예측하여 상호 비교한 결과, 모래와 화강풍화토는 Fredlund and Wilson의 방법, 준설토는 Arya and Paris의 예측모델이 높은 정확도를 나타내었다.

There has been outstanding research on the soil-water characteristic curves of unsaturated soils over the past several decades. Unfortunately, unsaturated soil mechanics has not been considered as an important factor in Korea. In this paper, laboratory test and numerical analysis(SoilVision Professional ver 3.04) were performed to investigate the prediction method of soil-water characteristic curve and unsaturated permeability coefficient in reclaimed ground. The pressure cell, desiccator, and tensiometor tests were conducted on three types of reclaimed soils(dredged soil, sand, weathered granite soil). Numerical analysis was executed to compare the results with the laboratory test results and also compared with the results of each prediction method. Based on the laboratory test, three different types of soils have shown different soil-water characteristic curves. The hysteresis fir these soils is clearly defined. As a result of numerical analysis, Fredlund & Xing's method and Fredlund & Wilson's model proved to worke out well for reclaimed ground soils in Korea. Also, predicting method based on the soil-water characteristic curves from the particle-size distributions is flirty reliable for estimating unsaturated permeability coefficient.
