Development of Piled Geo-wall (A new type reinforced soil wall

Takashi Hara; Shinichiro Tsuji; Masaki Yoshida

The high ductility of soil structure reinforced by geogrid is well known, as is the possibility of building indep endent soil wall. The independent reinforced soil wall has been applied to such diverse structures as rock-fall pro tection walls, mud and snow avalanche protection walls and the suchlike. Since it can be built using existing soil at the construction site if it is compactable one, they ar e being used ever more frequently as one of economic and CO 2 reducible structures. At present, however, the adop tion of the spread foundation for the independent reinforce d soil wall makes the design too wide for application to n arrow construction sites, such as beside mountainous road . If a narrow independent reinforced soil wall as like as RC wall with pile foundation is achieved, it could be widel y applied. And it can also be substitute for concrete ones and contribute sustainable development.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF GEOTEXTILE-CONFINED SOIL WALL

ジオテキスタイルを用いた補強土壁工法は,道路盛土 や造成盛土などに広く適用されてきた.通常の補強土壁 工法は,ジオテキスタイルと盛土材料との間の摩擦抵抗 による引抜き抵抗力によって自立した土構造物を構築す る工法である.このため,補強土壁の設計では,ジオテ キスタイルに作用する引張力と,ジオテキスタイルと盛 土材料との摩擦抵抗力との釣り合いにより,ジオテキス タイルの引抜けが生じない必要定着長を確保することと している ).しかし,盛土材料の性質によっては,ジ オテキスタイルの必要定着長を確保できないことがあり, 堅固な地山が近接する箇所などでは,地山の掘削が困難 であるため,補強土壁の適用が困難な場合があった. 一方,松岡らは,土を土のうで包み込むと,土のダイ レイタンシーが抑制されて,土粒子間の垂直応力が大き くなり,土粒子間の摩擦力が飛躍的に向上することを実 証している ).さらに,土のう積層工法として実際の 擁壁などに適用されており,近年では,地盤の液状化対 策にも有効であることが確認されている ).また,土 のうによる土の拘束効果と同様に,ジオテキスタイルで 土質材料を巻き込むことにより,土の拘束効果が発揮さ れることが確認されている.例えば,横田らは,ジオテ キスタイルで盛土材料を巻き込んだ構造をのり面とする 高さ 5m,勾配 60°の逆勾配形状の盛土を構築し,ジオ テキスタイルで土質材料を拘束することにより,自立安 定した構造体を構築できることを確認している ).こ のような経験から,著者らは,土のうやジオテキスタイ ルで土質材料を巻き込むことによる土の拘束効果に着目 し,ジオテキスタイルで土質材料を拘束した構造体を積 層した構造を「拘束土壁」と称して,コンクリート擁壁 に代わる抗土圧構造物として適用してきた.拘束土壁は, ジオテキスタイルと土の摩擦抵抗に頼らない構造である ため,躯体の幅を通常の補強土壁工法に比べて小さくす ることができる.このため,地山の掘削が困難で補強土 壁を適用することが難しい箇所で多く適用されており, 近年では,津波避難路の構築にも適用されている.本論 文では,ジオテキスタイルを用いた拘束土壁工法の設計 方法とその適用事例について報告する.

Experimental Development of New Type Reinforced Soil Wall

Takashi Hara; Shinichiro Tsuji; Masaki Yoshida

The high ductility of soil structures reinforced by geogrid is well known, as is the possibility of building independent soil structures. The independent reinforced soil structure, which is referred to “Geo-wall” in this paper, has been applied to such diverse structures as rock-fall protection walls [1], mud and snow avalanche protection walls [2] and the suchlike. Fig. 1 shows an example of the application of Geo-wall to a rock-fall protection wall. Since Geo-wall can be built using existing soil at the construction site if it is compactable one, they are being used ever more frequently as one of economic and CO2 reducible structures.

Development of Reinforced Soil Structure with Pile Foundation: Piled Geo-Wall

Takashi Hara; Shinichiro Tsuji; Naoki Tatta; Atsushi Yashima; Kazuhide Sawada

This study aims to achieve independent reinforced soil structure with pile foundation, which can apply to earth retaining wall, rockfall protection structure and others that can built on narrow construction site, such as on a sloped foundation or beside mountainous road. In this study, in order to confirm the effectiveness of the application of pile foundation to reinforced soil structure for improvement of the lateral resistance and investigate interaction between pile and reinforced soil structure, a dynamic centrifuge model test (25G) was carried out. And a numerical simulation of the experiment was conducted to propose a design method of the structure.

Field Test and Numerical Analysis on Performance Upgrade of Existing Rockfall Protection Fence by Using High Energy Absorption Net

Shinichiro Tsuji; Takashi Hara; Atsushi Yashima; Masaki Yoshida

This paper proposes a new technique, which uses the high energy absorption net, to upgrade the performance of existing rockfall protection fence. The high energy absorption net is installed to mountain side of the existing rockfall protection fence in this technique. In order to confirm the applicability of the proposed technique, field tests and numerical analyses are carried out. This paper describes the detail of the proposed technique and the results of the field tests and the numerical analyses as well as the effectiveness of the high energy absorption net to upgrade the performance of the existing rockfall protection fence.

DEFORMATION OF A REINFORCED EARTH DOUBLE STRUCTURE WALL DUE TO AN EARTHQUAKE AND ITS REPAIRWORKS

平成 20 年 6 月 14 日に発生した岩手・宮城内陸地震 (マグニチュード 7.2)で,図-1に示す防災科学研究 所の強震観測網(Kik-net)の一関西 IWTH25 観測点で, 南北動1143gal,東西動1433gal,観測史上最大の上下動 3866gal,合成で 4.0G を超える最大加速度の強震記録が 得られた 。今回の地震により,補強土壁の変状が多 く確認されている 。本報告における補強土壁は図-1 の想定された断層面上に構築され,本震の震央から北西 約 4.5km の地点に位置する。当該箇所における補強土壁 の耐震設計は,中規模地震動を対象としていた。今回の 大地震は設計時の想定を大きく上回る地震動が,当補強 土壁に作用したものと推定される。地震時に補強土壁の 壁面が 170mm 程度前方へ変位し,一部の壁面材でひび割 れや角欠けが発生した。補強土壁と橋台のすり付け部に 隙間が生じて,変形吸収層の単粒度砕石が流出した。 地震後に実施した壁面変位の観測と2次元表面波探査 の結果から,ジオグリットにより補強された盛土体を含 めて,補強土壁は安定した状態であると判断された。し たがって,ジオグリットにより補強された盛土体はその ままで,損傷を受けた壁面材のみを取替えることで,補 修・復旧工事を行った。著しく変状した一般の補強土壁 を補修・復旧工事する場合は,壁面材を含めて,補強土 を全て撤去しなければいけないので,多額の工事費と工 期を必要とする。今回の補強土壁の補修・復旧工事は, 二重構造の特長を生かして,安全・経済的且つ短工期の 補修・復旧工事ができた。ここで、その補強土壁の変状 の状況と,補修・復旧工事の状況の報告を行う。
