2. Scope of Works
2.1. To investigate the subsurface soil conditions at proposed site 04 boreholes were
carried out to identify the type of foundation, based on the engineering properties of
the sample retrieved.
2.2 The scope of investigation includes the following.

 Setting up boring rig at each location and boring 100 mm diameter bore holes through all
kinds of soils. Drilling vertically through the rock (if encountered) using ‘NX’ size (76 mm)
with double tube core barrel fitted with diamond studded drill bits. The boreholes were
terminated at a depth 16.5 to 19.50mtr below existing ground level.
 Record the soil conditions encountered in the borehole.
 Standard penetration test conducted at every 1.5 m interval or change of strata

(Whichever occurs earlier) up to depth below ground level.
 Collect undisturbed soil samples from the cohesive soil stratum, to obtain information
about their engineering properties. Since soft soil is not encountered UDS is not
collected
 Arranging all samples and rock cores (if any) in the core boxes as per the borehole
logging.
 Transporting the selected water and rock samples (if any) to laboratory for conducting
specified tests.
3. FIELD INVESTIGATION
A brief methodology of the geotechnical investigations is presented in the following
3.1 Geotechnical investigation are planned to obtain the subsoil stratification in the proposed
project area and to collect soil,rock and water samples for laboratory testing to determine their
engineering properties.This information will be useful for establishing the foundation design
parameters.
4
3.2 For geotechnical investigationwork, standard rotary type drilling rig is used. This rig is
coupled with diesel engineand has tripod and all drilling accessories. Drilling rig deployed is
suitable for and has arrangement for driving as well as extracting casting, boring rilling by mud
circulation method conducting Standard Penetration Tests(SPT) collection of Undisturbed soil
sample(UDS) and disturbed soil sample(DS).Machine photograph is given below
Drilling in Soil / Weathered Rock:
3.3 The field investigation boring was carried out using rotary Calyx rigs. The water was
circulated to cool the drilling bit (Calyx, 8 HP, Engine) as per IS 1892-1962 and 2131:1984
.The top of the bore hole is taken from the actual Ground Level at the time of boring. Water is
used as drilling fluid & casing was used to support sides of borehole until sufficiently stiff strata
was encountered. Following field test/sampling is carried out in the overburden.
 Standard Penetration Tests (SPT): -

3.4 Standard Penetration Tests were conducted in soil & Weathered Rock Samples at regular
intervals using Standard Split Spoon Sampler driven by as 63.5 kg hammer with free fall height
of 750mm as per IS 2131-1963. Standard Penetration Tests were carried out as per the
provisions laid down in IS 2131- 1981 in the holes & disturbed samples were collected through
Split Spoon Sampler at every 1.5m interval.
A standard split spoon sampler is driven at the bottom of the hole. The penetration resistance
in terms of blows for 300mm penetration of the split spoon sampler is measured as ‘N’ Value.
The blows are imparted by a standard weight of 63.5 kg falling through a height of 750 mm.
5
The resistance is measured for 150 mm, 300 mm and 450 mm penetrations. The resistance of
first 150 mm is ignored and the resistance of next 300 mm is recorded as standard penetration
value ‘N`. If the sampler is driven less than 450 mm (total) then the penetration resistance is
given for the last 300 mm of Penetration. If the penetration depth is less than 300 mm and the
blows count is more than 50 then the ‘N’ value is considered as ‘Refusal’. ‘N’ values were noted
& the results were recorded in logs of bore holes. The samples in the split spoon assembly are
treated as disturbed samples. The ‘N’ values are correlated with the relative density of non-
cohesive soils and consistency of saturated cohesive soils.

 Undisturbed samples (UDS)
3.4 UDS were collected at specific intervals. The samples from split spoon sampler as well as
undisturbed sampler were collected in plastic bags for visual inspection and classification of
strata from all the layers as recorded in log sheets of bore log. Undisturbed soil samples are
collected in soft to stiff clayey soils. Collection of undisturbed samples from the refusal strata is
not possible.
 Drilling in hard strata /Rock -
3.5 Once the hard stratum or rock surface is met the size of the borehole is reduced to NX size
(76mm). The hard stratum or top of the rock surface is conformed, either by the refusal from
standard penetration test N value or due to resistance during the drilling operation. In this hard
stratum using NX core drilling with TC/Diamond studded bits carries out further work. The work
is done generally as per IS 6926-1973. The maximum length of the drill (run) maintained is
1.50m. At the end of each run the drill rod string with core barrel is extracted from the borehole
and core is recovered from the core barrel. The core samples were extracted from the core
barrels in a manner to prevent disturbances to the core. The cores are carefully transferred to
the core boxes and preserved. The core recovery percentage is recorded and also the core
pieces transferred to the core box are numbered and labelled properly. Rock Quality Designation
(RQD) is also recorded. The selected core samples are sent to the laboratory for conducting
tests. Rock classification in terms of weathering and state of fractures and strength is carried, as
listed in Table 3. It should be noted that all grades of weathering might not be exhibited by a
given rock mass and, in some cases, a particular grade might be present to a very small extent
Table 3: Scale of Weathering of the Rock Mass
Terms Description Grade

Fresh No visible sign of rock material weathering; perhaps slight I
discoloration on major discontinuity surfaces.
Slightly Discoloration indicates weathering of rock material and II
weathered discontinuity surfaces. All the rock material may be
discoloured by weathering and may be somewhat weaker
externally that in its fresh condition.
Moderately Less than half of the rock material is decomposed And/or III
weathered disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or discoloured rated
7
rock is present either as a continuous framework or as core

stones.
Highly More than half of the rock material is decomposed IV
weathered Weathered and/or disintegrated to a soil. Fresh or
discoloured
rock is present either as a discontinuous framework
or as core stones.
Completely All rock material is decomposed and/or disinter weathered V
weathered grated to soil. The original mass structure is still largely
intact.
Residual Soil All rock material is converted to soil. The mass soil VI
structure and material fabric are destroyed. There is a
large change in volume, but the soil has not been
significantly transported.
Relationship between RQD and Rock Quality

Rock Quality is further measured by the frequency of joints in the rock mass. The rock
quality relation between RQD and Fracture Frequency is given in Table-4
TABLE-4 Rock Quality Designation of rock mass
Description of Rock Mass Rock Quality Designation(RQD)
Very Poor 0-25 %

Poor 25-50 %
Fair 50-75%
Good 75-90%
Excellent 90-100%
Classification of the rock mass with respect to its Compressive
The rock mass is also classified by strength of the intact rock cores collected during
drilling.The Unconfined Compressive strength (UCS) is used to define strength of the rock.
Classification of the rocks is presented in the ‘Table 2 of Appendix-2 of IRC: 78-2000 (March
2011 amendment), and the same is reproduced in Table 5.

4. LABORATORY TESTS
The laboratory test programme was directed primarily towards the determination of
engineering and index properties of soils and rocks encountered at site.
Disturbed samples in SPT split spoon and undisturbed samples in thin walled Shelby tubes
were collected from the boreholes. The soil samples were visually identified and described,
thereafter packed, labelled, sealed and dispatched to the laboratory. The laboratory tests
were carried out as per relevant parts of Indian Standard Code of Practice. The test results
are given in APPENDIX B.
4.1 LAB TESTS ON SOIL
4.1.1 Moisture Content
Natural moisture content (NMC) of the soil samples was determined from the
collected disturbed & undisturbed samples using Oven Drying Method, as per IS 2729
(Part II).
4.1.2 Atterberg Limit Test
The Atterberg Limits comprising liquid limit, plastic limit and plasticity index were
determined on soil samples in accordance with the relevant methods described in
IS:2720 (PART-V). The liquid limit has been determined using the Casagrande
apparatus method. In accordance with the Standard, soil sample preparation included
removal of soil particles retained on the 425μm sieve. Accordingly, where significant
quantities of coarser particles are present, it should be recognized that the Atterberg
Limits results are representative of the relatively fine soil fraction, and not of the
complete soil sample.
4.1.3 Grain Size Distribution Analysis
Grain size distribution analysis by sieve analysis was conducted on selected

samples to determine the Grain Size Distribution. The Sieve Analysis was carried out
10
on soil samples in accordance with IS: 2720(Part-4) by wet sieving method. Particularly
in SPT samples the quantity of soil sample available for testing is typically 100 gm.
This sample quantity is considered representative of soil where grain size ranges up
to 4.75 mm (Coarser sand size).
Sedimentation analysis was performed on soil samples in accordance with the

hydrometer method described in IS: 2720 (PART-IV). The analysis provides an
estimate of the particle size distribution for the fine fraction (<75μm) of a soil sample.
The analysis was performed by monitoring the rate of settlement of soil particles
initially suspended uniformly in distilled water. The rate of settlement, which is
monitored by observing the change in fluid density with the hydrometer device, is
related to the size of particles settling out of suspension. Hydrometer analysis was
conducted to determine the percentage of Clay & Silt Fractions in Cohesive Soil
Layers, as per IS: 2720 (Part IV).
4.1.4 Specific Gravity Test
Specific Gravity of the Soil Grains was determined using Specific Gravity bottles as
per IS: 2720 (Part III). Prior to testing, samples were ground down, if necessary, so as
to pass the 2mm sieve.
4.1.5 Direct Shear Test – Not Applicable
Direct Shear Tests were conducted on Sandy Samples as per IS: 2720 (Part XIII) by
Direct shear box apparatus which was an un-drained test. Shearing force was applied
by increasing the successive load until the failure takes place. The plane of shear
failure was determined and the graph was plotted.
4.1.6 Tri-axial Compression (Unconsolidated Untrained) – Not Applicable
Un drained shear strength parameters were determined for Two (2) soil samples by
rapid unconsolidated-un drained (UU) tri-axial compression testing, in accordance with
the methods of IS:2720 (Part 11). Testing on undisturbed samples was carried out on
test 38mm & 100mm diameter specimen trimmed from thin-walled tube samples. Prior
to loading, confining cell pressures were applied to test specimens in
11
the tri-axial cell, without consolidation. During testing, no change in sample moisture
content is allowed, and pore pressures were monitored.
4.1.7 Chemical Analysis of Water Sample
Chemical analysis of Soil Samples was conducted on the samples collected from the
bore holes to determine pH, Chloride & Sulphate Content as per IS: 2720 Part 26 & IS
3025 Part 24. Moreover the Chemical analysis of Water Samples were conducted on
the samples collected from the bore holes to determine pH, Chloride & Sulphate
Content as per IS 3025 Part 11, 24 & 32.
4.2 LAB TESTS ON ROCK :
Tests were carried out on rock cores obtained by drilling using triple tube core barrel,
which were necessary to be tested in the laboratory from strength consideration. The
rock samples were prepared for testing in the laboratory in accordance with IS:
9179:1979. The test results so obtained were tabulated for engineering
characterization of rock samples. Water absorption, Unit Weight, Point load strength
Index test and uniaxial compression test on the rock samples were conducted as per
relevant Indian Standards.
4.2.1 Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS)
Uniaxial compressive strength (Unconfined Compressive Strength) tests were carried

out in accordance with the method suggested by IS:9143 (1979). The uniaxial
compressive strength of the specimens were corrected for a height to diameter ratio
of two for specimens whose height to diameter ratio was other than two using the
following relationship
qc (corrected) = (qc x 0.889)/ (0.778+ (0.222D/H))
Where qc = Uncorrected Uniaxial Compressive Strength
D = Diameter of the specimen tested
H = Height of the specimen tested
12
4.2.2 Point Load Test
Point load Index test were performed on selected rock specimens (in case the sample
length is not sufficient for UCS Test) in accordance with the method suggested by
IS:8764 (1978). The tests were performed on diametrically
loaded, trimmed core samples and on irregularly fractured core samples.
The results of rock test are reported in summary of rock test results as point load
strength index Is(50). Uniaxial compressive strength may be predicted by following
relationship.
UCS/ Is(50) = 22
Where, Is(50) = Corrected Point load strength index.
4.2.3 Unit Weight, Specific Gravity & Porosity
Unit Weight, Specific Gravity & Porosity of the rock samples were determined for the
selected core samples as per IS: 13030.

bearing capacity of Bored cast in situ can be calculated as:
For BH 01, lateral load capacity of pile with dia. 400 mm can be calculated as follows-
for a pile of diameter 400 mm,
considering lateral defletion (y) = 4 mm
Stiffnes Factor (T) For Piles in sand ----------- (C- 2.3) 𝑇= √𝐸𝐼ꞃℎ5
E = Young’s Modulus of pile material
= 29580.0 (MN/m2) ---(Considering M-35 Grade of concrete)
I = Moment of Inertia of pile cross section
= 𝜋 𝑥 𝐷4 64 = for circular section = 0.00126 m4
T = 1.250 m
B = width of pile shaft (dia. in case of circular piles) (m) = 0.4 m
Considering fixed head condition for piles in sand:
For L1/R = 0, Lf/ T = 2.2 ------(from fig 4)
Lf = zf = (depth of point of fixity (m) = 2.2 x T
= 2.75 m
L1 = e = 0
Lateral load on pile (H) for Fixed head condition:
H = 12 𝑥 𝐸𝐼 𝑥 (𝑒+𝑧𝑓)3 𝑥 1000 = 85.75 kN = 8.74 ton---------------------------------eq (2)
Where,
H = Lateral load in kN
y = deflection of pile head (mm) = 4 mm
E = Young’s Modulus of pile material (kN/m2)
= 29580.0 x 1000 (kN/m2) ---(Considering M-35 Grade of concrete)
I = Moment of Inertia of pile cross section (m4) = (dia. Of pile = 0.4 m) = 0.00126 m4
Zf = depth of point of fixity (m) = 2.75 m
e = Cantilever above the ground/ bed to the point of load application (m)
