Abstract

The large circular steel pipe for a marine bridge foundation has been developed as a construction method capable of performing the role of the working platform and cofferdam. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the wireless remote sensing system for monitoring the stability of the large circular steel pipe during construction and operation through field tests. The artificial seabed ground with an water level of 4 m is constructed for field tests. The large circular steel pipe with a diameter of 5 m and height of 9.5 m is installed into the ground by suction, and the embedded depth is 5 m. The inclinometer and strain gauges are installed on different surfaces of the upper module, and the tilt angle and stress are monitored throughout the entire construction process. As results, tilt angles are measured to be constant during the suction penetration. However, the tilt angle is larger in the x-axis direction. In addition, even when installed on different surfaces, the tilt angle in the same axial direction is measured to be almost the same. The stresses measured by strain gauges increase during suction penetration and decrease during pull-out. Based on measured stresses, it is found that the eccentricity is acting on the large circular steel pipe. This study shows that a wireless remote sensing system built with an inclinometer and strain gauge can be a useful tool for the stability monitoring of the large circular steel pipe.

해상 교량기초용 대형 원형강관 가설공법은 가물막이와 작업대의 역할을 함께 수행할 수 있는 공법으로 개발되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 현장실험을 통해 시공과 운용 중 대형 원형강관의 안정성을 모니터링하기 위한 무선 원격계측 시스템을 검증하는 것이다. 현장실험을 위해 수심 4m의 인공 해상 지반을 조성하였으며, 직경 5m, 높이 9.5m인 대형 원형강관을 석션 관입하였다. 대형 원형강관의 근입 깊이는 5m이다. 경사계와 변형률계는 상부 모듈의 서로 다른 네 면에 설치되었으며, 강관의 운반, 시공, 해체 전 과정에 걸쳐 경사각과 응력을 모니터링하였다. 실험결과, 경사계로 측정된 경사각은 석션 관입 중 일정하게 유지되었으나 x축 방향으로 더 크게 기울어진 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 서로 다른 면에 설치되어 있어도 같은 축 방향의 경사각은 거의 같게 측정되었다. 변형률계로 측정된 응력은 석션 관입 시 증가하였고, 인발 시 감소하였다. 또한, 측정된 응력으로부터 강관에 편심이 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 경사계와 변형률계로 구축된 무선 원격계측 시스템이 대형 원형강관의 안정성 모니터링에 유용하게 활용될 수 있음을 보여준다.
