卵石之尺寸、體積與單位重-頭前溪 The Particle Dimension, Volume and Unit Weight of Cobble- Tou-Qian River 楊朝平 中華大學土木工程研究所 新竹市香山區東香里五福路2段707號 電話：03-5374281-2714 傳真：03-5372188 Email: ycp@chu.edu.tw 摘要 台灣地區多天然卵石，而「就地取材」乃是生態工法之大原則。雖然人類使用卵石已有數千年歷史，但因缺少科學化的研究，致尚欠缺相關於卵石品質要求及砌石構造物安全性分析上的基本資料，有待更進一步研究。為此，本研究以新竹縣頭前溪產之卵石（15粒徑74）為樣本，量測其尺寸、體積與單位重，並統計分析其分佈性質。茲定義卵石之較長徑為、較短徑為、最小徑為。將樣本依其徑分成六組，並編號各卵石，分別量測其尺寸、體積與單位重。研究發現，()比值隨之增大而變大，其比值從1.35增至1.66。()比值之值域為2.03~2.26，此比值與間之變化關係不明確。()比值隨之增大而變小從1.67降至1.32。建議依式估算卵石體積；卵石單位重之平均值為25.04。 關鍵詞：生態工法、卵石、尺寸、體積、單位重。 Abstract Taiwan is abundant in natural cobble and one of the principal of the ecological construction method is “full utilization of field materials.” Although, human beings have built masonry structures for thousands years, the scientific study on properties of cobble is still scarce. It is necessary to do more research on physical properties of cobble in order to meet the needs of material specification and the safety analysis on masonry structure. Therefore, this study uses the cobbles gathered from Tou-Qian River, Hsinchu County as samples. The sizes of these cobbles range from 15 to 75. Define the symbol of maximum, intermediate and minimum cobble dimension as , and respectively. Depending on their sizes all samples are divided into six groups. The particle dimension, volume and unit weight of each cobble are measured, and their distribution patterns are observed by statistical method. The results from this study show that the ratios of () increase with increasing maximum dimension from 1.35 to 1.66. The ratios of () range from 2.03 to 2.26, the relationship between ratio of () and maximum dimension is irregular. The ratios of () decrease with increasing maximum dimension from 1.67 to 1.32. The mean unit weight of cobbles is 25.04. On the other hand, this study recommends using equation to estimate the volume of cobbles.
