In this paper, a dynamic centrifuge model test was conducted on a 24.8-meter-deep excavation consisting of a 20 m sand layer and 4.8 m bedrock, classified as S3 by Korean seismic design code KDS 17 10 00. A braced excavation wall supports the hole. From the results, the mechanism of seismically induced earth pressure was investigated, and their distribution and loading points were analyzed. During earthquake loadings, active seismic earth pressure decreases from the at-rest earth pressure since the backfill laterally expands at the movement of the wall toward the active direction. Yet, the passive seismic earth pressure increases from the at-rest earth pressure since the backfill pushes to the wall and laterally compresses at it, moving toward a passive direction and returning to the initial position. The seismic earth pressure distribution shows a half-diamond distribution in the dense sand and a uniform distribution in loose sand. The loading point of dynamic thrust corresponding with seismic earth pressure is at the center of the soil backfill. The dynamic thrust increased differently depending on the backfill's relative density and input motion type. Still, in general, the dynamic thrust increased rapidly when the maximum horizontal displacement of the wall exceeded 0.05 H%.

본 연구에서는 원형수직구 굴착에 따른 Ring Beam의 거동을 평가하기 위하여 현장계측 자료의 분석과 평가, 굴착심도 변화에 따른 Ring Beam의 응력 특성 등의 비교분석을 구조해석에 기초하여 평가하였다. 그 결과, Ring Beam의 거동은 현장계측 및 구조해석 결과에서 유사한 경향을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이로부터 굴착심도 변화에 따른 Ring Beam 거동은 본 연구에서 제안한 구조해석에 의해 예측할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.
