Abstract

Waveform micropile is an advanced construction method that combined the concept of conventional micropile with jet grouting method. This new form of micropile was developed to improve frictional resistance, which consequently leads to achieving higher bearing capacity and cost efficiency. Two field tests were conducted to examine the field applicability as well as to verify the effects of bearing capacity enhancement. In particular, waveform micropile construction using jet grouting method was performed to evaluate the viability of waveform micropile installation. After testing, the surrounding ground was excavated to check the accomplishment on the shape of waveform micropile. The result showed that waveform micropile can be installed by adjusting the grouting time and pressure. In the loading tests, waveform micropile's bearing capacity increased by 1.4 to 2.3 times depending on their shapes when compared with conventional micropile. Overall results clearly demonstrated that waveform micropile is an enhanced construction method that can improve bearing capacity.

파형 마이크로파일은 기존 마이크로파일과 제트 그라우팅 공법을 접목하여 그라우트체를 파형의 형상으로 시공하는 공법으로, 파형 구근에 의한 마찰저항 성능을 높여 마이크로파일의 지지력 및 경제성을 개선하기 위해 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 파형 마이크로파일의 시공 타당성 및 지지성능 개선 효과를 검증하기 위해 총 2회의 현장시험을 수행하였다. 파형 마이크로파일의 시공성 분석을 위해 제트 그라우팅 공법을 활용하여 시간 및 압력 조절을 통한 파형 그라우트 형성 실험을 수행하고 지중 말뚝 굴착을 통해 파형 형성 여부를 확인하였다. 확인 결과, 제트 그라우팅의 압력 및 시간 조절을 통해 파형 마이크로파일의 요구 형상을 적절히 시공할 수 있는 것을 확인하였으며, 하중재하시험 결과에서는 전단키가 없는 마이크로파일과 비교해 파형 마이크로파일의 지지력이 형상에 따라 1.4 배에서 2.3배까지 증가해 파형 마이크로파일의 지지력 개선효과가 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
