Abstract

In this paper the method of estimating the bearing capacity of shallow foundation on a finite layer of sandy ground underlain by a rigid base was proposed by assessing results of the model test and the numerical analyses. For model experiments, the centrifuge tests under 1g and 20 g of gravitational levels were performed with sandy soils sampled from the field, changing the relative density of sandy soil and the ratio of thickness of sand layer (H) to the width of strip footing (B). As results of tests, bearing capacity tends to increase with the value of H/B while settlement for a given load intensity decreases. Bearing capacity also increases with relative density of the soil. In order to propose the method of estimating the bearing capacity of thin sandy layer underlain by a rigid base, values of bearing capacity factors from test results were compared with the values of modified bearing capacity factor by Mandel & Salencon (1972) considering the effect of H/B value on bearing capacity. The relation of bearing capacity factor ratio, normalizing friction angle of sandy soil, with the value of H/B was suggested so that this relation could be applied to design in the safe side. The results of numerical analyses obrained by changing the layout of footing, relative density of sandy soil and the value of H/B, were in good agreements with the suggested relation.

본 논문에서는 모형실험과 수치해석을 수행하여 유한한 두께의 모래지반 위에 놓인 얕은 띠기초의 지지력 평가방법을 제안하였다. 모형실험은 현장에서 채취한 모래시료를 사용하여 모래지반의 상대밀도와 대상 기초폭(B) 에 대한 모래층 두께(H)의 비(H/B)를 변화시키면서 1g와 20g 중력수준의 원심모형실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, H/B가 감소함에 따라 지지력은 증가하고 침하는 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 상대밀도 증가에 따라 지지력이 증가하는 경향도 나타났다. 강성지반 위 두께가 얇은 모래층의 지지력 평가방법을 제안하기 위하여 실험 결과 얻은 지지력 계수를 H/B의 영향을 고려한 Mandel & Salencon(1972)의 수정지지력계수와 비교 분석하였다. H/B에 따른 지지력계수비 관계를 제안하여 보수적인 설계에 적용할 수 있도록 하였다. 기초 제원, 사질토 상대밀도, H/B를 변화시킨 수치해석을 실시한 결과, 제시된 관계식과 유사한 경향성을 확인하였다.
