Test Results Joomoonjin Sand Weathered Granite kpa 200 kpa 300 kpa kpa 200 kpa 300 kpa r s (=τ a /τ f ) 0.4 r s (=τ a /τ f ) Temperature ( ) Temperature ( ) The coefficient r s decreases at temperature range between 0 and -5 degrees Celsius, and the ratio becomes constant as temperature decreases below -5 degrees Celsius. This indicates that the temperature condition has an influence on the proportional coefficient in initial freezing condition. Also, the normal stress condition has an influence on the proportional coefficient in initial freezing condition in case of weathered granite soil
16 4. Test Results Coefficient r s from this study and previous studies at Result of this study(joomoonjin sand) Result of this study(weathered granite soil) Weaver and Morgenstern(1981) Ladanyi and Theriault(1990) r s (=τ a /τ f ) Normal Stress (kpa) Both shear strength and adfreeze bond strength characteristics of frozen soils are governed by the intrinsic material properties such as grain size, ice and water content, air bubbles, and by externally imposed testing conditions such as temperature, freezing time, and strain rate. This means that field environmental conditions should be considered in determination of shear strength and adfreeze bond strength characteristics. 16
17 5. Conclusion and Future Works In this study, direct shear testing inside of a large-scale freezing chamber was conducted in order to analyze the shear strength and adfreeze bond strength characteristics with varying freezing temperatures and normal stress with two soil types, and the relationship between the adfreeze bond strength and shear strength of frozen soils was analyzed in terms of ratio rs. The test equipment described in this paper provides a promising approach to obtaining foundation design parameter, adfreeze bond strength, in frozen ground. According to our test results the previous proportional coefficients describing the relationship between shear strength and adfreeze bond strength should be used in care to obtain true adfreeze bond strength characteristics in all conditions. For pile design in frozen ground, it is recommended to compare the design parameters from several research results and obtain the most suitable one for the field conditions. 17

19 6. Why Micropiles? This research work can be generally applied for foundation design in permafrost area such as Siberia, north Canada, etc. S. Korea has built a new Antarctic research station, JanBoGo research base in this Feb. and there is a need to small pile construction technology because the transportation of construction machine is key issue. That is why micropile method has got interest. 19
