Abstract

Yapı temellerinin tasarımında, kayma tahkikinin önemi birçok yönetmelik ve akademik çalışmada
vurgulanmıştır. Hesaplamalar sırasında zemin özellikleri ve uygulama koşulları dikkate alınırken yalıtım
amacıyla kullanılan ve etkili bir ara yüzey elemanı olan geomembranların kayma davranışları göz ardı
edildiği taktirde ve geomembran ile yapı elemanı arasındaki kayma mukavemetinin tasarımda kullanılan
kayma direncinden daha düşük olması durumunda önemli problemlerle karşılaşılabilir. Olası can ve mal
kayıplarının önüne geçebilmek için sistemde var olan tüm ara yüzeylerin dikkatle irdelenmesi gerekir.
Bu çalışmada, iki farklı geomembran ile İzmir, Karşıyaka, Mavişehir sahil şeridinden alınan deniz suyu
etkisindeki killi zeminin ara yüzey kayma davranışı incelenmiştir. Polivinil klorür (PVC) geomembranın
kalınlıkları 1.5 ve 3.0 mm ve TPO geomembranın kalınlığı 1.5 mm dir. Ara yüzey kayma dayanımı
parametreleri orta ölçekli direk kesme deneyleri ile belirlenmiştir. Direk kesme deneyleri 0.5 molar
(0.5M) tuzlu suda 4, 8 ve 16 ay kür edilmiş ve kür edilmemiş geomembranlar ile gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Zemin – TPO ara yüzeyi en büyük kayma dayanımı ve sürtünme açısına sahipken en düşük kayma
dayanımı ve sürtünme açısızemin – PVC/1.5 ara yüzeyine aittir. Tuzlu suda kür edildikten sonra ara yüzey
sürtünme açısı en fazla azalan geomembran 1.5 mm PVC iken en az azalan geomembran 3.0 mm PVC
olmuştur.

Investigation of the Interface Shear Behavior of Geomembranes Under the Influence of Salt Water

Abstract

In the design of construction foundations, the importance of shear verification has been emphasized in
many codes and academic studies. Considering the soil properties and application conditions during the
calculations, if the shear behavior of geomembranes, which is an effective interface element and used
for insulation, is ignored, and if the shear strength between the geomembrane and the structural
element is lower than the shear resistance used in the design, significant problems may be
encountered. In order to prevent possible loss of life and property, all interfaces in the system should
be carefully examined. In this study, the interface shear behavior between two different
geomembranes and the clayey soil taken from the coastal part of Izmir province, Karsiyaka district,
Mavisehir was investigated. Geomembrane types are polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and thermoplastic
polyolefin (TPO). The thickness of the TPO geomembrane is 1.5 mm, while the thickness of the PVC
geomembrane is 1.5 and 3.0 mm. Interface shear strength parameters were determined by mediumscale direct shear tests. Direct shear tests were carried out with uncured geomembranes and cured in
0.5 molar saltwater for 4, 8, and 16 months. While the soil – TPO interface has the highest shear
strength and friction angle, the soil – PVC/1.5 interface has the lowest shear strength and friction angle.
The same situation was obtained for geomembranes cured in saltwater. After curing in salt water, the
geomembrane whose interface friction angle decreased the most was 1.5 mm PVC, while the least
decreased geomembrane was 3.0 mm PVC.
