  • 目前加勁擋土結構物的設計中,加勁材材料的最大張力強度為加勁材主要且唯一的設計參數,然而加勁材勁度的影響並沒有被充分的考慮到。事實上,當土壤產生主動破壞時,加勁材尚未達到其最大張力強度,其力學行為應該為加勁材勁度或是某應變量下相對應的張力強度所控制。以上可見,目前的設計概念與加勁擋土結構物在工作應力下之實際行為並不相符合。有鑑於此,本研究選用兩種勁度不同之不織布作為加勁材,採用三軸壓縮試驗模擬加勁土壤於加勁擋土結構物內之受力行為,探討加勁材勁度對加勁土壤之影響。本研究試驗結果發現,在高圍壓與小加勁間距下,加勁材勁度的增加可提升加勁土壤之剪力強度,束制加勁土壤之體積應變,且其加勁效果能越早發揮。然而,在低圍壓與大加勁間隔下,由於土壤與勁度大之加勁材的互制效果較勁度小之加勁材來的差,故試驗觀察到加勁材勁度的增加反而會降低加勁土壤之剪力強度。本研究更進一步對加勁材張力與應變發展進行探討,試驗結果發現,加勁材最大張應變與加勁層數、圍壓呈現正關係而與加勁材勁度呈現負關係。研究結果也發現加勁土壤的強度差異Δσ1 與加勁材最大累加張力ΣTmax呈現非唯一之關係。本研究在最後也利用三種預測公式對加勁土壤之尖峰剪力強度進行預測並與三軸壓縮試驗所量測之實際值進行比較。本研究成果有助於了解加勁材勁度對加勁土壤之影響,並進一步提供往後發展利用加勁材勁度為加勁擋土結構物之設計方法的理論依據。


    In the current design guidelines of geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) structures, the ultimate tensile strength of reinforcement is the only reinforcement parameter for internal stability design against breakage. The effect of reinforcement stiffness has not been considered into the design yet. The objective of this research is to study the influence of reinforcement stiffness on the stress-strain-volumetric behavior of reinforced soil. A series of triaxial compression tests on reinforced soil were carried out using two types of reinforcement with different stiffness. The experimental results showed that, under high confining pressure and close reinforcement spacing, the geotextile reinforcement with larger stiffness enhanced the reinforced soil shear strength, suppressed the volumetric strain and required less deformation for the reinforced soil shear strength to exceed the unreinforced one (strength ratio ≥1.0). However, under low confining pressure and large reinforcement spacing; the shear strength of soil reinforced with stiff reinforcement was found to be lower than that reinforced with flexible one. Furthermore, a special technique was introduced in the study to deduce the mobilization of reinforcement tensile strains after tests from the measured residual reinforcement tensile strains. The experimental results show that the tensile strain and force of reinforcement depends on reinforcement spacing and stiffness and confining pressure. Experimental results show that the maximum mobilized tensile strain has positive correlation with the confining pressure and number of reinforcement layer and negative correlation with the reinforcement stiffness. Depending on the reinforcement stiffness, this study found there is not unique relationship between the sum of maximum tensile force ΣTmax and the strength difference between reinforced and unreinforced soil Δσ1, which violate the conventional limit equilibrium solution for the prediction of peak shear strength of reinforced soil. Last, the peak shear strength of reinforced soil with two reinforcement types was compared with the results predicted by three analytical methods. The accuracy of these three methods was discussed at the end.
