Abstract

 In order to elucidate the failure mechanism of damaged coastal dikes by the Great East Japan Earthquake tsunami, hydraulic overflow tests were carried out with using dike prototypes that replicated reduced impermeable condition of joint concrete due to earthquake on one hand and that of which did not in the other. As a result, overflow water intruded under the land-side cover concrete, pushing it out due to the pressure of muddy water with the case of deteriorated impermeability even though the intensity of overflow was relatively small. Likewise, it was found that the land-side cover concrete was torn off by uplift force when overflow depth exceeded about 5.0 m. Thus, given the damaged condition of joint concrete, countermeasures to prevent concretes from tearing off, as well as to protect from getting soggy condition of backfill were necessary to ensure further durability.
