Abstract
Kinuura-1 Landfill Waste Disposal Site Development Project which will expand as Large Scale Waste Receiving Facility is presently in progress by Chubu Electric Power Co. Inc. In this development projects, massive caissons were adopted aiming at reducing the leakage risk by shortening the construction period and reducing the number of joints between caissons during installation. Even among them, the shape of the caisson on the ocean-side is asymmetry and the stability evaluation during towing is regarded as important.
In this paper, the behavioral characteristics of the massive and asymmetric caissons during towing has been confirmed by fluctuation analysis and hydraulic model experiment and reported.
