Recently, auger-drilled piling has been widely used in urban area to reduce the air pollution and noise. But this construction method that its basic theory was introduced from Japan may be changed depending on the each piling company and construction field condition. Therefore, the design code and management method for auger-drilled piling is not defined yet. Especially, the lack of research on the bearing capacity of auger-drilled piling leads to the absence of rational bearing capacity prediction equation. This paper presents the optimum design code and economical construction method of the auger-drilled piling by proposing the new bearing capacity prediction equation based on the site specific soil types and construction conditions. In this paper, existing bearing capacity prediction equations and current pile load tests were compared. And the end bearing capacity and skin friction characteristics were also analyzed by comparing the results of CAPWAP. From the results of analysis, a reliable bearing capacity prediction equation considered soil types is proposed.

In order to improve the bearing capacity of soft ground for the purpose of getting a trafficability of construction vehicles, the geosynthetics-sandmat system has often been used. Yamanouchi had proposed the equation of calculating the bearing capacity about this kind of bearing mechanism, which has a soft ground-geosynthetics-sandmat system. The bearing capacity equation by Yamanouchi has been widely using in our country. However this equation includes an important contradictory concept because if the contact width of vehicles is incresed to reduce the contact pressure, the bearing capacity is decresed on the contray according to this equation. In order to investigate this contradictory concept, the bearing capacity test has been performed on the soft model ground with geosynthetics-sandmat system. From the test results about various kinds of models, the principle that explain the contradictory concept has been found and on the basis of this principle the new bering capacity equation has been proposed by modifying Yamanouchi equation.

In this test, there was two dimensional model loading test implemented for analysis with respect to the problem of evaluating bearing capacity and the application range on the dredged and reclaimed ground. It was got following conclusion through comparison of button's and Brown&Meyerhof"s equation with experimental result that was obtained by 2 dimensions model loading test. For the difference between average undrained shear strength by 2/3B of loading board width and under 2/3B is more than ${\pm}$ 50%, application of Nc(coefficient of bearing capacity was used in that case $\phi$=0 analysis is considered in the single layer) was declined. Brown&Meyerhof(1969)'s equation was underestimated comparing with loading test result, while Button(1953)'s equation was overestimated comparing with loading test result applied dividing as double layers of upper dessication layer and lower soft layer about dredged and reclaimed ground. Also, bearing capacity factors, Nc that was calculated by using button's equation was estimated greatly about 1.7 times more than bearing capacity factors, Nc that was calculated by using Brown&Meyerhof's equation. Bearing capacity factors, Nc that was calcuated by using Brown&Meyerhof's and Button's equation was evaluated each 2.3-3.6 times, 1.3-2.1 times smaller than bearing capacity factors, Nc5.14 that was calcuated by using Meyerhof's equation in case of unit layer.

The equation of end bearing capacity is applied differently depending on the type of pile, construction method, and load characteristics considering the construction standards. The bearing capacity equation of the design standard is presented in various ways according to the design conditions such as construction method and ground condition, etc. but, It does not reflect the ground strength according to the SPT-N value of weathered rock. This study analyzed the trend of allowable tip bearing capacity by pile diameter through about 480 dynamic loading tests conducted for the construction/quality management of piles for the last 6 years since 2015. The equation for the ultimate end bearing capacity per unit area according to the SPT-N value is presented. The proposed formula of ultimate end bearing capacity per unit area can be applied in the range of 15,000kN/m2 to 30,000kN/m2. The proposed formula, which complements the existing formula, enables pile design and construction/quality management.

The best way to gain optimal results on the bearing capacity is to perform the plate bearing test on field but it is not always possible. In the case of not performing the bearing test but estimating bearing capacity equations, it is not yet determined what equation is appliable. In this paper the results of bearing capacity equation and the loading tests of 12 samples were compared and what the one is more reliable than others was verified. The comparison showed that the range of the values using Hansen's equation was 0.67 and 1.44 times of the measured, that of Vesic's was 0.71 and 1.27, that of Meyerhof is 0.69 and 1.1, and that of Terzaghi was 0.87 and 1.57.

Since the dredging reclaimed land consisting of soft ground is very weak in support, the difficult and complex factors should be considered in the design to calculate accurate bearing capacity of soft ground. Recently, various reinforcement construction methods of soft ground have been designed for dredged landfills, but the stabilities are predicted by calculating conventional Meyerhof (1974) equation for trafficability in soft ground. Conventional equations increase economic costs by underestimating bearing capacity of weak ground in order to ensure constructive safety, so a modified equation has been proposed from the literature. The paper attempts to experiment and compute important factors, such as stitching fiber and seam tensile strength of geotextiles, that are not theoretically considered and can be identified in the field. In addition, The evaluation of the bearing capacity of the modified equation is verified to be stable for trafficability through the plate bearing test performed on site.

Top Base Foundation(TBF) is a stabilization method for light weight structures particularly in the soft ground. It is widely used for the increment of bearing capacity and restraining settlement of foundations when the bearing capacity of ground is not enough. However, when the design values from exiting Japanese standard are compared with the observation values from the field measurement, the bearing capacity of exiting standard estimated smaller For this reason, it is necessary to establish more reasonable prediction technique considering to understand the behavior of TBF in soft ground. In this study, 1/5 scale model tests were performed in the laboratory. Also, full scale tests were carried out in order to investigate the behavior of TBF with various shapes. In addition, about 100 sites measurement data were evaluated to investigate the behavior of TBF in various ground conditions. Based on the results of the model tests and field measurement data, it was possible to establish more reasonable the bearing capacity equation of TBF considering various N-value of soil, the effect of underground water and failure shapes.

The influence of round embossed surface on slider bearing characteristics and its load carrying capacity is discussed for thin film effect of embossed slider bearing. For the numerical computation of lubrication parameters such as pressure, load capacity and shear stress that are normalized and a Reynolds equation is used for the analysis of embossed slider bearing characteristics. For this purpose, the finite difference method of central difference scheme is used in this study. In a slider bearing with embossed form, several simulation parameters such as pressure, load capacity and shear stress of the bearing can be obtained according to independent parameters such as the slope of the slider bearing and number of embossing in the upper slider. Also this results can be summarized and be stored in sequential data file for latter analysis. After all, their distribution of the pressure and shear stress parameters can be displayed and be analyzed easily by using the developed program with matlab GUI technique. The independent parameters such as a number of embossing and a slope of the embossed surface slider are used for discussing simulation parameters of pressure distribution, shear stress and load carrying capacity of the round embossing. These study results reported in this paper should be applied to the other shaped slider bearing with a rectangular embossed surface or rectangular waved surface.
