본 연구는 요철형 암반굴착 락볼트 공법에 관한 것으로 암반 확공굴착 드릴비트를 이용하여 실험체를 제작하고, 요철이 없는 모델과 요철을 형성시킨 모델의 인발저항 성능을 평가하기 위한 실험방법을 제시하고 실물실험을 통해 요철형 암반 굴착 락볼트의 성능을 평가하였다. 요철형성 모델은 슬립이 일어나기 전 암석의 취성파괴가 발생하였으며, 무형성 모델보다 평균 1.65배의 저항효과를 보였고 그라우트로 충전된 요철은 압축력에 의해 그라우트가 파괴되더라도 암석 내에서의 2차적인 인장저항효과를 보였다. 또한, 요철의 깊이가 150mm일 경우는 60mm의 경우보다 약 1.12배 인발저항효과를 나타내었다. 암석의 취성으로 인해 암석과 그라우트간의 부착력이 상대적으로 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 반복적이고 균일한 실험결과의 도출은 불가능 했으나 요철형성 효과에 대한 충분한 검증이 이루어졌다. 향후 요철의 길이나 개수 등의 변수에 따른 추가실험과 성능평가를 통해 최적의 요철형성 설계가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSES: It is difficult to estimate tunnel stability because of lack of timely information during tunnel excavation. Tunnel deformability refers to the capacity of rock to strain under applied loads or unloads during tunnel excavation. This study was conducted to analyze a methods of pre-evaluation of stability during tunnel construction using the critical strain concept, which is applied to the results of tunnel settlement data and unconfined compression strength of intact rock or rock mass at the tunnel construction site. METHODS: Based on the critical strain concept, the pre-evaluation of stability of a tunnel was performed in the Daegu region, at a tunnel through andesite and granite rock. The critical strain concept is a method of predicting tunnel behavior from tunnel crown settlement data using the critical strain chart that is obtained from the relationship between strain and the unconfined compression strength of intact rock in a laboratory. RESULTS: In a pre-evaluation of stability of a tunnel, only actually measured crown settlement data is plotted on the lower position of the critical strain chart, to be compared with the total displacement of crown settlement, including precedent settlement and displacement data from before the settlement measurement. However, both cases show almost the same tunnel behavior. In an evaluation using rock mass instead of intact rock, the data for the rock mass strength is plotted on the lower portion of the critical strain chart, as a way to compare to the data for intact rock strength. CONCLUSIONS : From the results of the pre-evaluation of stability of the tunnel using the critical strain chart, we reaffirmed that it is possible to promptly evaluate the stability of a tunnel under construction. Moreover, this research shows that a safety evaluation using the actual instrumented crown settlement data with the unconfined compression strength of intact rock, rather than with the unconfined compression strength of a rock mass in the tunnel working face, is more conservative.
