Large-Scale Shear Tests on Interface Shear Performance of Landfill Liner Systems

Masashi Kamon; S. Mariappan; Takeshi Katsumi; Toru Inui; Tomoyuki Akai

Interface shear performance of various landfill liner systems were evaluated for landfill stability by conducting large scale shear tests. Testing program covers the interfaces between (1) geosynthetics (geomembrane (GM) sheet (HDPE and PVC) and non-woven geotextile) and subsoil, (2) geosynthetics and compacted clay liner (CCL), and (3) GM and geotextile. The focus of this paper is placed on interface shear performance under both as installed condition (dry for geosynthetics and optimum moisture content for CCL or subsoil) and saturated / wet condition, since landfill liner system is often subjected to saturated / wet condition due to the higher water retention capacity of CCL as well as the contact to leachate and/or groundwater. For geotextile-GM interface, there is no significant effect on the interface shear strength. The saturated CCL-GM interface had lower shear strength compared to the interface under as installed condition, although the shear performances of CCL-geotextile interface under both conditions are similar to each other. For the interfaces between geosynthetics and subsoil, the frictional resistance of HDPE with textures surface had a significant drop from 23 to 15 degree in the saturated / wet condition.

廃棄物処分場の表面遮水工として遮水シー トを用い る場合、保護マット等の保護層の設置が義務付けられ ており1)、保護マットには不織布が多用 されている。 斜面部の遮水シー ト敷設においては、遮水シー トと保 護マットとの境界面がすべ り面になることが考えられ る。 したがって、すべりに対す る安定性検討に際 して は、遮水シー トと保護マットとの摩擦特性が重要な要 素となる。従来、遮水シー トや保護マット(不 織布)の 摩擦特性に関する数多くの報告がある2)。 しかし、実 施工では遮水シー トと保護マット表面だけではなく裏 面との境界面が存在するにも拘わらず、不織布の表裏 の表面性状の違いによる摩擦特性への影響についての 報告は見あたらない。また、海面処分場の水中敷設を 想定した水浸状態における摩擦特性に関する報告3)もき わめて少ない。本研究の主目的は、海面処分場の表面 遮水工における各種遮水シー トと保護マットの摩擦特 性を明らかにすることである。それに先立ち、数種類 の遮水シー トを用いて先ず気中において不織布の表裏 による摩擦特性への影響を明らかにした上で、次に水 浸状態での一面せん断試験を実施 して、気中での結果 と比較 しつつ水浸下の摩擦特性について検討を加えた。
