Abstract

As construction for road and train tunnel is increasing, various geotechnical conditions can be faced during the construction stage. Especially, if the tunnel is located in limestone area, the cavity is mostly to locate in tunnel planning location. One or some cavities which can be harmful for tunnel safety are predicted. Hence, this study was fulfilled to confirm the influence between tunnel and cavity using laboratory scale down model test and numerical analysis. The scale down model test was carried out to confirm the failure load of the model ground about the interval length of cavity and tunnel and to analyze behaviour characteristics of the model ground on the cavity shape. From the model test result, the failure load decrease in accordance with decreasing of interval length between cavity and tunnel within 0.5D. The numerical analyses were carried out for verification about scale down model test. From the numerical analysis result, tunnel safety decreases in the case of the interval between cavity and tunnel within 0.5D.

도로 및 철도의 터널 공사가 증가함에 따라 공사 시에 다양한 지반조건에서 터널 공사 단계를 진행하고 있다. 특히, 석회암 지역에서 터널 공사를 진행하게 되는 경우에는 대부분의 공동이 터널 계획구간에 존재하고 있는 실정이다. 하나 또는 그 이상의 공동은 터널의 안정성을 저하하는 것으로 예상된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 터널과 공동과의 상호 영향을 알아보고자 실내 모형 축소실험과 수치해석을 시행하였다. 실내모형실험은 터널과 공동 간의 거리에 따른 모형지반의 파괴하중을 확인하였고, 공동의 형상에 따른 파괴하중을 확인하였다. 실내모형실험결과 파괴하중은 공동과 터널 간의 거리가 0.5D 이내로 감소함에 따라서 파괴하중 역시 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 수치해석은 모형실험의 검증을 위해 시행하였으며, 실내모형실험과 동일하게 터널과 공동 간의 거리가 0.5D 이내로 근접하는 경우 터널의 안정성이 저하되는 것으로 확인되었다.
