 4.0 Geology of Mumbai

Geographically, Greater Mumbai is an island outside the mainland of Konkan in Maharashtra separated
from the mainland by the narrow Thane Creek and a somewhat wider Harbor Bay. At present, it
covers the original island group of Mumbai, and most of the island of Salsette, with the former
Trombay Island appended to it in its Southeast. A small part in the north the Salsette Island however,
lies in Thane District. The Salsette-Mumbai island creek and the Thane creek together separate it from
the mainland. Thus the area of Greater Mumbai is surrounded on three sides by the seas: by the
Arabian Sea to the west and the south, the Harbor Bay and the Thane Creek in the east - but in the
north, the district of Thane stretches along its boundary across the northern parts of Salsette. Its
height is hardly 10 to 15 meters above sea level. At some places the height is just above the sea level.
Parts of Mumbai City district (Backbay and Bandra reclamation) are the major reclamation areas of
Mumbai in the Arabian Sea. The predominant soil cover in Mumbai city is sandy whereas in the
suburban district, the soil cover is alluvial and loamy.

The entire Greater Mumbai area is occupied by Deccan basalt flows and their acid and basic variants,
poured out between the late Cretaceous and early Eocene times. The basaltic flows are horizontally
bedded and are more or less uniform in character over wide areas. Certain extrusive and intrusive
mafic types are associated with basalt's and are found in the Mumbai Islands and its vicinity. This is in
contrast to the monotonous uniformity displayed by the Deccan basalt's in general. Further, some
fossiliferous sediments, mainly of tufa ceo us origin and partly of fresh water origin, rich in fauna, are
also found in Mumbai area.

Mumbai Island has ridges along its western and eastern side. The city of Mumbai is built on the
central low-lying part of the island. The western ridge comprises stratified ash beds.

Overlain by hard, massive andesitic lava flows, both formations showing gentle tilt towards the west.
The stratified ashed which display variegated colors and variable textures attain a total thickness of
about 45m.

The ash beds are capped by massive lava flows which attain a thickness of about 16 m. The rocks are
aphanitic, have a conchoidal fracture and exhibit conspicuous hexagonal columnar jointing. They are
exposed on the Malabar, Cumballa, Worli hills and extend on to the Salsette Island. Dark colored
fossiliferous shales attaining a thickness of about 2m are exposed at the foot of the Worli hills. Being
3
deposited during a period of quiescence and overlain by a later flow, these beds are known as
Intertrapean Beds.

The eastern ridge represents a different suite of rocks. The geology of the intervening low lands is
more or less obscured by the development of the city of Mumbai. Some of the recent excavations near
Flora Fountain, Old Custom House and Dadar have revealed the presence of The central portions of
Salsette Island comprise a range of hills trending north-south merging with the tidal swamps towards
the east, while towards the west these hills pass into wide plains with a few isolated hillocks. Basalt is
the major rock unit constituting the main ridge extending from Ghatkopar, east of Jogeshwari, Aarey
Milk Colony to Kanheri and beyond. At places, there are ash beds intervening between successive
flows, these may be seen in the cuttings of the Western Express High-way passing through
Jogeshwari.

Another interesting geological feature is the occurrence of a vast thickness of volcanic agglomerate
near Tulsi Lake and Kanheri caves, indicating a possible volcanic focus from which much of the
pyroclastic rocks in the Mumbai and Salsette islands may have extruded. These agglomerates are
largely made up of elongated sub-angular vesicular bombs blocks of brown chert, trachyte, volcanic
ejectment and small pieces of yellow to reddish brown limonitic matter, varying in size from a few
centimeters to as much as one meter set in a mainx of dense, dull light grey amorphous material. At
places this matrix resembles bauxite.

Trombay Island is separated from Mumbai and Salsette by intensive tidal flats with a series of low hills
extending north south in the center. Fades of amygdaloidal olivine basalt dipping gently towards west,
with ramified layers and dykes of rock types described variously as oceanite, ankaramite and
monchiquite etc. are prevalent in this area.

A well-marked fault is seen near Antop hill. Sukheswala (1958) has given evidence for two north-south
running faults in Mumbai Island, one to the east of Western ridge and other running along the
western ridges. The faults extend into Salsette Island and have maximum throw of 75' and 40'
respectively.

 5.0 Subsurface Investigations/Methodology
The field investigation to determine the Index and engineering characteristics of the surface
material included drilling of borings, performing standard penetration test and obtaining
Disturbed/undisturbed soil samples from two bore logs.
The Investigation consists of two test boring up to 19.50 meters .Locations of boreholes were
selected in consultation of client. Data and results obtained from this investigation will be used for
design of proposed structure.
The Geotechnical Investigation work carried out by standard rotary type drilling rig. The
drilling rig is coupled with diesel engine and has tripod and all drilling accessories. Drilling rig deployed
is suitable for and has arrangement for driving as well as extracting 100 mm dia. casing, boring drilling
by mud circulation method, conducting standard penetration test (SPT) collection of
Disturbed/Undisturbed soil sample. Soil samples were obtained at selected intervals in the soil test
borings. All samples were identified according to borehole number and depth and sealed at either
ends with paraffin wax. During the sampling procedures standard penetration test were performed in
the borings in conjunction with the Disturbed/Undisturbed samplings. The standard penetration value
(N) is defined as the number of blows of a 63.5 kg hammer, falling through 75cm, required to
advance the split spoon sampler 30cm into the soil – IS:2131. The results of the standard penetration
test indicate the relative density and comparative consistency of the soils, and there by provide a basis
for estimating the relative strength and compressibility of the soil profile components.

When rock was encountered, borehole is changed in to NX size (76mm dia.). A core barrel and NX
sized bits are used for drilling and recovering rock cores. Recovered samples numbered serially and
preserved in good quality wooden core boxes. Core Recovery and RQD were computed for every run
length drilled.

Laboratory Testing
Laboratory test were carried out in a number of selected soil samples in order to acquire necessary
information with regards to the physical and mechanical properties of the soil layers and further on to
evaluate and determined the parameters required for the calculations / design of foundation.
Field and Laboratory work was executed generally in accordance with IS specifications listed below.

 7.0 Theoretical background of various Analyses
7.1 Bearing Capacity of Foundation on Soil
When thickness of Soft foundation Soil is Greater than the embankment base Width, then a Standard
bearing Capacity analysis should be carried out. Where the layer of Soft Soil is less than the
embankment base Width failure manifests itself in extrusion of foundation material at the toe of the
embankment and settlement of the embankment fill.
IS 6403 (1980) recommendations are used for calculation of net ultimate bearing capacity and hence
safe bearing capacity

7.2Bearing Capacity of Foundation on Rock

The safe bearing pressure should be estimated from the equation:

qs = qc . Nj
where’
qs=safe bearing pressure ( gross ),
qc= average uniaxial compressive strength of rock cores,
Nj= empirical coefficient depending on the spacing of discontinuities, see Table 4, IS 12070, Pg 9
Allowances should be made for submerged conditions (Sb)
(Generally These Correction is taken between 3/4 to ½)
Hence,
Allowable Bearing Pressure = qs / Sb

 8.0 Geotechnical Appraisal and Recommendations
The soil profile discussed above indicates that all possible foundations need to be weighed to a
suitable solution. This part of the report discusses the various alternatives and finally suggests the
most suitable techno economic alternative.

8.2 Assessment of Liquefaction Potential:
The liquefaction potential can be assessed using the SPT values. The approach suggested by Seed,
Arango and Idriss (1981) has been used to evaluate the liquefaction potential. The approach
compares
 Cyclic stress applied due to an earthquake of given intensity with
 Cyclic stress required to cause liquefaction
Mumbai District lies in Zone III of the seismic map of India (refer seismic map of India).
As per the IS: 1893 the desirable N values upto 5 meters depth is 15 and at the depth 10 m, it is 25
(For Values of depth between 5 to 10 mtrs linear interpolation is recommended) .
The vast majority of liquefaction hazards are associated with saturated sandy and silty soils of low
plasticity and density. Cohesive soils with clayey content greater than 15% are generally not
considered susceptible to soil liquefaction. Liquefaction generally occurs in cohesionless sands, silts,
and fine-grained Gravel deposits of Holocene to late Pleistocene age in areas where the ground water
is shallow than 15 meters.
Considering that the foundation will rest on Breccia rock stratum and it will get the N – Value greater
than 50 with little or no penetration of split spoon or dynamic cone. Since it is evidence that the stress
caused due to earthquake is less than that required for liquefaction.

8.3 RECOMMENDATIONS PROPOSED STRUCTURES

8.3.1 Recommendation for End bearing pile foundation
Pile foundation shall have to end bearing type, socketed sufficient into the bed
rock.
a. Pile foundation can be installed by suitable method. In view of very thick layer of
sensitive clay, it is necessary to adopt Direct Mud circulation Method for pile installation.
b. Longitudinal reinforcement steel rod shall bent to ‘L’ Shape at the bottom and the
concrete shall be poured only by tremie.
c. It is necessary to ensure proper tip zone cleaning by circulating fresh Bentonite after
lowering the reinforcement cage.

 1) End Bearing Pile Foundation System rested in Breccia Rock from the existing
ground level, satisfying the chiseling criteria of minimum penetration energy of 225 t-
m/m2/cm penetration with socketing of about 1 x dia. of pile. Minimum 1000 mm dia pile
may be designed taking the carrying capacities as specified in Table A.
 Pile construction up to such a large depth should be done under strict quality
control and supervision. It is also recommended that piles load test (as per IS
2911-IV) be carried out to ascertain that the pile construction methodology is
proper and safe end bearing and socketing values assumed are reasonable.
 It is also necessary to make comprehensive check on quality to ensure durability
of pile shaft. Therefore it is recommended to carry out pile integrity test on every
pile installed for this project. This is fast and also cheap.
2) Chemical tests indicate that the soil is not chemically aggressive. However to increase the
durability, especially of foundation concrete, OPC cement should be used. Also, care
should be taken as per data provided in Table B. Construction of foundation should be
done under strict quality control and supervision
