Abstract

The research has been done to obtain a empirical equation for the depth of replacement by the analysis of data collected from 8 sea-dike construction sites of south coast of Korean peninsula. The correlation analysis results show that the depth of replacement was mainly dependent upon the height of embankment and the undrained shear strength of soft soil. The suggested regression equation was quite well predicted the depth of replacement and recommended to use under certain restrictions where the embankment height was less than 10m and under 0.2 kgf/cm^{2} of the undrained shear strength of soil.
