Abstract

In this study, a simple method to evaluate the seismic vulnerability of river levees was examined considering the structural characteristic of river levee, that is long, and the functional characteristic of river levee that performs temporary function against flood but is a permanent structure in the ordinary way. Considering the fact that one of the main failure modes of the levee during the earthquake are the settlement due to the strength reduction of the ground caused by the increase of the excess pore pressure in the levee body and foundation and the settlement due to liquefaction, the 2-dimensional section of the levee was regarded as the 1-dimensional section and the liquefaction potential index (LPI) for the regarded section was estimated. The estimated LPI was correlated with the seismic vulnerability of river levees. The relationship between the displacement of the levee crest caused by the earthquake and the seismic vulnerability of the levees was obtained from the results of previous researches and the correlation between the displacements of the levee crest computed by 2-dimensional dynamic coupled analyses and LPIs based on the results of 1-dimensional seismic response analyses was investigated. In connection with this correlation, as a result of examination of the correlation between LPI and the seismic vulnerability of the levee, it was concluded that the method for evaluation of the seismic vulnerability of the Korean river levee using LPI is applicable.

본 연구에서는 하천제방이 홍수 때를 대비한 임시적인 기능이 크나 영구구조물이라는 기능적 특성과 길이가 매우 길다는 구조적 특성을 감안하여, 제방의 지진취약도를 간편하게 평가할 수 있는 방안을 검토하였다. 제방의 지진 시 주된 파괴모드가 제체 및 기초지반의 과잉간극수압 증가로 야기되는 지반의 강도감소 및 액상화로 인한 제체 침하인 점에 착안하여, 2차원 형태의 제방단면을 1차원으로 간주하고 액상화 가능 지수를 산정한 후, 그 결과를 지진 시 하천제방의 취약도와 연관시키는 방안을 검토하였다. 지진으로 야기된 제방 정상부의 변위와 제방의 지진취약도와의 관계를 기존 연구결과로부터 획득하였고, 2차원 동적 유효응력해석을 수행하여 산정한 제방 정상부 변위와 1차원 지진응답해석 결과를 기초로 산정한 액상화 가능 지수와의 상관관계를 검토하였다. 이러한 상관관계와 연계하여, 궁극적으로 액상화 가능 지수와 제방 지진취약도와의 연관성을 검토한 결과, 액상화 가능 지수를 이용한 국내 하천제방의 지진취약도를 평가하는 방법이 적용성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다.
