Abstract

In this study, seepage control effect of relief well was evaluated quantitatively on embankment of small fill dam and levee. Seepage analysis of dam and levee were carried out according to the permeability of fill material and foundation and to analyze behaviour characteristics of seepage. The up-lift pressure at toe of embankment was analyzed which is generated by seepage according to relief well installation condition. The relief well could reduce pore water pressure which is to cause piping or up-lift pressure at foundation ground of embankment and it does not be influenced on geometric condition such as dam height and slope incline. In case of relative low permeable ground, the pore water pressure reduction effect of relief well was decreased compare with high permeable ground but it shows pore water pressure reduction effect compare with no relief well condition. The reduction effect of relief well shows relative gap according to diameter and penetration length of relief well and the installation length of relief well is the most effective factor for seepage control.

본 연구에서는 감압정의 침투수 처리 효과를 정량적으로 분석하여 소규모 필댐과 하천제방에서 제체를 통과하는 침투수의 처리 효과를 확인하였다. 이를 위해 댐과 제방에서의 제체와 기초지반의 투수 특성에 따른 침투해석을 수행하여 침투수의 거동특성을 파악하여 댐 제체 선단에 작용하는 양압력을 분석하였다. 또한 감압정의 설치 조건을 변수로 분석하여 댐 또는 제방의 제체 선단에 작용하는 양압력의 감소 효과를 분석함으로써 침투수 처리 효과를 분석하였다. 감압정은 파이핑 현상 또는 양압력을 유발하는 제체의 선단 하부 기초지반에서의 작용 간극수압을 감소시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 평가되었으며, 제체의 높이 및 비탈면 기울기와 같은 기하학적 조건에 크게 영향을 받지 않고 간극수압을 관리할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 투수성이 상대적으로 큰 조립토 지반에 비해 세립토 지반에서 감압정의 간극수압 저감 효과는 상대적으로 저하되지만 감압정이 설치되지 않은 조건에 비해서 간극수압 저감 효과를 기대할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 감압정의 직경, 설치 깊이에 따라서 감압정의 저감 효과는 상대적으로 차이가 발생하지만 감압정의 설치 깊이가 침투수 관리에 가장 효과적인 것으로 확인되었다.
