Research Abstract |
The Shirasu soil in the southern Kyushu area covers as much as 4,700km^2, about 72% of it is situated in Kagoshima, 27% in Miyazaki and 1% in Kumamoto. The Shirasu ground is classified as "Unusual soil" because it has frequently been the cause of disasters. In recent years, land development along coast lines of southern Kyushu have been on the increase and Shirasu soil has been used to reclaim land. Therefore, evaluating stability of such a reclaimed land in case of earthquakes is in urgent. In-situ tests for measuring unsaturated permeability of Shirasu ground are carried out by means of that measurs the variation of infiltration rates from the double-ring infiltrometer. From the results, it is cleared that infiltration test with infiltrometer is easy handling and useful method for the measurement in many locations.
