Abstract

본 연구는 제주도 현무암의 함수상태가 역학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 다양한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 시험편은 제주 북서부의 상가리와 어음리에서 채취한 현무암으로 각각 20개씩 제작하였다. 시험은 포화 및 건조상태로 구별하여 진행하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 함수상태에 따른 물성 및 역학적 특성간의 관계를 고찰하였다. 기존 연구결과들과 함께 분석한 결과, 포화상태의 경우 건조상태보다 일축압축강도, 압열인장강도 및 탄성계수가 비슷한 비율로 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 압열인장강도와 일축압축강도는 선형비례관계에 있으며, 함수상태는 이 관계에 큰 영향을 주지 않았다.

In this study, various laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of the moisture conditions of Jeju basalt on the mechanical properties. Twenty specimens were produced respectively from basalts collected from Sangga-ri and Eoeum-ri in northwestern Jeju. The tests were performed under saturated and dry conditions, and the results of these tests were used to examine the relationship with the physical properties and the mechanical properties depending on the moisture conditions. As a result of analysis with the test results and references, it was found that the uniaxial compressive strength, Brazilian tensile strength and elastic modulus in the saturated condition decrease at a similar ratio as compared with the dry condition. Also, the Brazilian tensile strength and the uniaxial compressive strength were in a linear proportional relationship, and in the moisture conditions, this relationship was not significantly affected.
