Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 土木工程學系 === 84 === Dynamic consolidation method has a lot of merits such as shortduration,low cost and has no pollution. Moreover, it needs only simpleequipments and iseasy to implement with a vast range of application. Italso has distinct impro-vement effect and can be applied in large area ofsubsoil improvement exclusively. Despite of having a lot of merits , thedesign and construction of this me-thod depend on a semi-experimentalapproach. So far a complete design system isstill unavailable. After alarge amount of real practice in field for many years, many countries inthe world begin to pay attention to the research of dynmicconsolidationmethod in laboratory. In this research, the triaxial tests,cylindrical shape tank tests,and half- cylindrical shape tank tests were used to investigate the variation of pore water pressure, consolidation settlement,the volume change and the strength improvement of soil after the treatment ofdynamic consolid-ation method for clayey or sandy ground. Further more, thisstudy investigatedthe wave speed of motion and behavior at the moment of impact in sandy ground with different relative density, the relationship betweenthe impactpressure at soil surface and the dynamic stress at a certain depth,the settlement and deformation models of soil under the print and the depthof crater due to impact in order to understand and control the improvement effects and mechanical mechanism. According to the results of these tests,it is known that the consolid-ation settlements of soil reached the maximum value at the moment of impact, and it increases with the magnitude of impact pressure. This result matchedwith the function of complete major consolidationsettlements in short timeas dynamic consolidation method . For the excess porewater pressure in theclay sample induced by the impact, the dissipation time needed is much longerlonger than that for the sandy sample. For saturated co-hesive ground in field, the elapsed time after impact of each impact phase should be longer to obtainto obtain a better improvement effects by impact. After the treatment of impact, the strength of soil increases distinct with the impact pressure, but the increment of impact pressure has a limit which depends on the value of theconsolidation pressure on the soil body and the degree of absorbing impact energy. Under the same impact condition, the improvement effects for shallow ground soil is evident superior to that of thedeep ground. The strength increment of soil decreases with respect to the depth. According to the mathematical formula, the factor of concentration υ can be obtained by the dynamic stress which are measured under the conditionof different weight and radius ofhammer. Once the value of υ is decided, we can find the dynamic stress in the depth Z under the soil surface by measuringthe dynamic stress of surface duet o impact without really measurement. The depth of crater increases with the number of impact, but it would bereach to aconstant value when the number of impact has reached a certain value that is called "the best number of impact". At that time the best improvement effects will be obtained. The effective depth of improvement increases directly with single impact energy. It also has a close relationship with the properties of soil(such as relative density)and thenu mber of impact. In a word, if the major factors such as impact energy, impact number and elapsed time after impact of each phase can be controled well, both clayey and sandy soil may obtain good improvement of strength in short duration by using dynamic consolidation method. In this way we can also take the mechanical mechanism ofsoil into our own hands effectively.
