Abstract

In tunnel construction, the stability is evaluated by the settlement of adjacent structures and ground, but the shear strain of the ground is the main factor that determines the failure mechanism of the ground due to the tunnel excavation and the change of the operating load, and can be used to review the stability of the tunnel excavation and to calculate the reinforcement area. In this study, a twin tunnel excavation was simulated on a soft ground in an urban area through a laboratory model test to analyze the behavior of the twin tunnel excavation on the adjacent pile grouped foundation and adjacent ground. Both the displacement and the shear strain of ground were obtained using a close-range photogrammetry during laboratory model test. In addition, two-dimensional finite element numerical analysis was performed based on the model test. The results of a back-analysis showed that the maximum shear strain rate tends to decrease as the horizontal distance between the pillars of the twin tunnel and the vertical distance between the toe of the pile group and the crown of the tunnel were decreased. The impact of the second tunnel on the first tunnel and pile group was decreased as the horizontal distance between the pillars of the twin tunnel was increased. In addition, the vertical distance between the toe of the pile group and the crown of the tunnel had a relatively greater impact on the shear strain results than the horizontal distance of the pillars between the twin tunnels. According to the results of the close-range photogrammetry and numerical analysis, the settlement of adjacent pile group and adjacent ground was measured within the design criteria, but the shear strain of the ground was judged to be outside the range of small strain in all cases and required reinforcement.

현재 터널 시공 시 인접 구조물 및 지반의 침하를 기준으로 안정성을 평가하고 있지만, 지반의 전단변형은 터널 굴착 및 작용하중 변화에 따른 지반의 파괴메커니즘을 결정짓는 주요 인자로서 터널 굴착 시 안정성 검토 및 보강영역 산정에 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는, 실내모형시험을 통해 도심지 연약지반에 병렬터널 굴착을 모사하여 병렬터널 굴착이 인접한 군말뚝 기초 및 인접 지반에 미치는 거동에 대해 분석하였다. 실내모형시험 시 근거리 사진계측을 활용하여 지중의 변위 및 지반의 전단변형을 구하고, 이를 바탕으로 2차원 유한요소 수치해석을 수행하였다. 역해석 결과 병렬터널의 필라부 수평이격거리 및 군말뚝 기초 선단부와 터널 천단부 사이 수직이격거리가 증가할수록 최대전단변형률이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 필라부 수평이격거리가 증가할수록 두 번째 터널에 의해 첫 번째 터널 및 군말뚝 기초에 미치는 영향이 줄어들었다. 또한, 필라부 수평이격거리보다 군말뚝 기초 선단부와 터널 천단부 사이 수직이격거리가 지반의 전단변형률 결과에 미치는 영향이 상대적으로 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 근거리사진계측과 수치해석 결과 인접 군말뚝 및 인접 지반의 침하는 설계 기준 이내로 측정되었으나, 지반의 전단변형률은 모든 Case에서 미소변형 범위를 벗어나 보강이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.
