EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Fugro Iraq (FIQ), operating as a subsidiary of Fugro Middle East BV, has been contracted by SEAN Engineering
and Construction Co., Ltd. (Client) to conduct a geotechnical investigation and engineering analysis along the
proposed route of a 33 kV transmission line from the central processing facility (CPF) to Badra City and Permanent
Camp, Iraq. Client agreement with FIQ is under the contract GB090-2614-299-CV-MR-0001 dated 24/02/2015.
This report presents all the results from the field work undertaken for the above mentioned project, comprising
15 no. boreholes to a depth of 10m below ground level (bgl), 25 no. electric piezo-cone penetration tests (CPTu),
10 no. trial pits and all associated laboratory testing.
This report also presents the interpreted soil conditions at the site, the selected soil design parameters and the
associated engineering assessments as listed below.
The scope of work included:
i. General geotechnical interpretation of ground conditions based on geotechnical investigation data;

ii. Recommendations on geotechnical parameter values for geotechnical design;
iii. Recommendations for shallow foundations (bearing capacity, allowable loads and settlement assessment);
iv. Recommendations for pile foundations (capacity in compression and tension, maximum bending moment,
axial and lateral load transfer behaviour);
v. Evaluation of soil corrosivity risk and recommendations on concrete and steel durability;
vi. Preliminary recommendations on earthworks.
The subsurface conditions and the soils encountered in the current site are discussed in detail in section 5 of this
report.
Considering the working loads provided by Client, shallow foundations are deemed to be suitable. However, deep
foundations may be used for design where structural loads cannot be supported by shallow foundations, or where
other factors limit the use of shallow foundations. For instance, should shallow foundations be insufficient to
support the uplift loads or if ground conditions different to those anticipated are found (e.g. soft soils from ground
level, fill, organic soils), piles may be considered to safely transfer the imposed structural loads to deeper strata.
Due to limitations in terms of drivability in the soil profile for driven piles, bored cast in-place piles capacities are
evaluated. Analyses of the axial load capacity (under both compression and tension), and lateral load capacity of
bored piles of 300 mm diameter were carried out. Structural analysis and design of the piles and pile cap, as well
as reinforcement details, is not included in the scope of works.
All engineering assessment and recommendations are given in Section 9 and Section 10 of the report.

v. Evaluation of soil corrosivity risk and recommendations on concrete and steel durability;
vi. Preliminary recommendations on earthworks.
1.3 Project Responsibilities and Use of Report

The preliminary assessments provided in this report are based on the general project information known
to FIQ at the time of report preparation. Descriptions of the subsurface conditions mentioned in this
report are solely based on the findings of the investigation work along the proposed route and the
associated laboratory testing programme. This investigation identifies subsurface conditions at the
locations where testing was carried out. Subsurface conditions along the route, where required, were
determined based on extrapolation of the results at the investigated locations through the use of standard
professional methods and engineering judgment.
Changes along the route following the time of study are not within the scope of this report, whether
caused by construction or other man-made or natural events. Should any such changes occur, FIQ
should be notified immediately to discuss the necessity to reassess any reported recommendations.

i. Specifications for geotechnical investigations are provided in document no: GB090-2614-250-CV-

SP-0003, Rev 2;
ii. 33kV Overhead Transmission Line, Badra, Iraq CPF 2 project geotechnical investigation points

2. SITE CONDITIONS
2.1 Regional Geology

The geology within the study area comprises two main stratigraphic units; Tertiary and Quaternary
sediments. The Quaternary sediments comprise flood plain deposits. These are underlain by Tertiary
Fatha Formation.
Flood Plain:
A flood plain is land built up by sedimentation on either side of a watercourse. During floods, flood plains
may contain water carrying suspended silt and clay; when the flood waters recede these fine-grained
sediments are left behind as a horizontal deposit on the flood plain.
A river has one flood plain and may have one or more terraces representing abandoned flood plains.
Sandy and clayey sediment deposited by river water that was spread out over a flood plain; a deposit
beneath and forming a flood plain, being thickest near the river and thinning out toward the valley slopes.
Many features are associated with flood plains including old meander channels, oxbow lakes, natural
levees, point bars, crevasse splays and various levels of terracing, (Way, 1983).

SEAN ENC
Fatha Formation:
The Fatha Formation is of middle Miocene age and is one of the most widespread and important
formations in Iraq.
The sub-cycle marked by calcareous conglomeratic sedimentation at its beginning and then by
calcareous evaporate sedimentation. Lithologicaly the main character of Fatha Formation is the
prevalent evaporate (sulphatic and halogenous) facies.
In general, this formation consists of cyclic deposits of red claystone, marl, gypsum and occasional
interbeds of limestone and sandstone. The red claystone and sandstones dominated the other facies.
2.2 Topography
The as-built coordinates and elevations were determined by the FIQ survey team using DGPS and are
referenced to WGS84, UTM Zone 38N and EGM (2008) vertical datum respectively. The
as-built coordinates and elevations are shown on the individual geotechnical logs (Appendix A) and in
Table 3.1.
The system of positioning using GPS was the Leica RTK system. It uses a base set up over a known
point which sends corrections to a rover unit on a pole (within 10km max). This achieves an accuracy of
+/- 20mm relative to the known point.
Based on the topographic survey, the existing ground level slopes upwards from +41.9 EGM (2008) to
+65.3 EGM (2008) from south to north (Badra-CPF) and slopes downwards from +82.3 EGM (2008) to
+54.9 EGM (2008) from east to west (branch route).
Further details and cross-sections regarding the topographic and surface conditions are given in the
Fugro Survey Report, 33kV Overhead Transmission Line, Badra, Iraq (Fugro Ref: 14-011-IQ-GB090-
SR001, dated 2016).
From north to south along the main route, the topography was generally smooth. This smooth surface
comprises Fatha Formation deposits. Conversely, the topography was found steeper in the vicinity of
the Badra River in the north, and also along the branch route where old channels and quarry works are
present. These two areas comprise flood plain deposits.
2.3 Stratigraphy and Spatial Variability

The general stratigraphy is given in Table 2.1 based on the geological formations. The lateral continuity
of the layers across the site was assessed using the geotechnical boreholes and the regional geological
context.

2.4 Potential Geohazards

The potential geological and geotechnical hazards (geohazards) that may be applicable during the
construction and operational phases are presented in Table 2.2. It should be noted that this table
describes geohazards that were identified on the basis of available information and are related to
foundations. A detailed geohazards study was not part of the scope of work and geohazards other than
those listed below may be present.

3. FIELD WORK
3.1 General
Fieldwork commenced on 21st August to 4th September 2016. Locations of investigated points along with
as-built coordinates are shown in Table 3.1 and on Plate I2 - Field tests location plan.
All works were performed by experienced Fugro geotechnical personnel, under the regular supervision
of a suitably experienced geotechnical engineer. All soil samples collected from the boreholes and trial
pits were transported to Fugro laboratory in Basra for detailed logging and sample processing.
Representative samples were selected for laboratory testing to assist with sample descriptions and
determination of engineering material properties.
3.2 Setting out of Test Locations

The test locations were set out in the field by Fugro site representative based on the coordinates provided
by the Client. The as-built coordinates and elevations are summarised in Table 3.1.

3.3 Exploratory Boreholes

A total of fifteen (15) No. boreholes were drilled to depth of 10 m bgl. The borehole logs are presented
in Appendix A and should be read in conjunction with the Symbol legend for Geotechnical logs and
Summary of soil and rock definitions included therein.
Suitably qualified drillers and geologists performed the drilling and logging respectively with assistance
from the experienced FIQ team. On completion of the fieldwork the samples were transported to the
Fugro Laboratory in Basra where laboratory testing on selected samples was undertaken as discussed
in Section 5.

SEAN ENC
The boreholes were undertaken in a way which allowed for a continuous description of the soil profile
and enabled a proper recovery of high quality disturbed samples, execution of standard penetrometer
tests (SPT) and hammer sampling at the depths required by project specifications. A guar gum water
mixture was used for drilling support and flushing.
SPTs were undertaken in soil layers to estimate the relative densities of sand soils and obtain disturbed
samples for classification and testing purposes. The SPT works were performed in general accordance
with ASTM D 1586. Borehole logs are made with reference to the ASTM D 2487. The test involves
driving a 50mm external diameter thick walled tube (split spoon sampler) into the bottom of the borehole
with successive blows of a 63.5kg hammer falling freely through 760mm. The sampler is driven through
6 intervals of 75mm and the number of blows required to penetrate each interval is recorded. The initial
150mm interval is intended to ensure seating of the sampler such that it penetrates beyond the zone
of influence of any soil disturbance at the base of the borehole. The aggregate number of blows to drive
the sampler over the final 300mm is termed the N value, and is considered indicative of the in-situ
relative soil density.
Disturbed SPT samples (S), hammer samples (H), undisturbed samples (UD) collected during drilling
were retained in sealed, labelled plastic bags.
3.3.1 SPT Sampling (S)

SPT samples (designated S) are considered to be small disturbed samples (typically 500 g). SPTs were
undertaken inside the borehole at 1 m intervals down to 5 m bgl. Below 5 m depth, SPTs were performed
at 1.5 m intervals until investigated depth, alternating with hammer sampling. The top 1m bgl at all
borehole locations was hand excavated for visual confirmation of any underground facilities and a bulk
bag sample was collected.
SPT samples were classified and logged in the field. Samples collected from SPTs were preserved in
watertight plastic jars and/or wrapped in watertight plastic and labelled with the following information:
project name, project number, sample number, sampling type, sampling date, sampling borehole,
sampling depth and length of recovery in order to be used for further soil classification and testing
purposes.
3.3.2 Hammer Sampling (H)

Hammer samples (designated H) were collected between the SPTs using 600 mm to 1000mm length
and 3-inch diameter split spoon samplers. Hammer samples are considered to be high quality disturbed
samples. Hammer samples were classified and logged in the field and preserved and labelled
appropriately for further soil classification and testing.
3.3.3 Undisturbed Sampling (UD)

Undisturbed soil samples (designated UD) of not less than 75mm diameter were collected in the
cohesive strata at 1m intervals. The first sample is taken at 0.5m depth below the top of cohesive strata.
The following procedure was applied for undisturbed sampling:
Soil samples were concentrated in significant clay layers;

SEAN ENC
Soil samples were acquired using a thin walled Shelby tube sampler with an OD of 75 mm, an
inside diameter of 72 mm and length of approximately 0.7 m.
Normally in soft cohesive soils, undisturbed sampling takes precedence, followed by SPT. Before an
undisturbed sample is taken, the bottom of the hole was cleared of loose material and where a casing
was used the sample was taken below the bottom of the casing.
3.3.4 Handling and Transport of Undisturbed Samples

The procedure for handling and transporting undisturbed samples was as follows:
Recovered samples were properly handled, packaged, stored and transported in such a manner
to prevent any sealant from entering any voids in the sample;
Each soil sample was placed in an appropriately marked separate airtight container immediately
after being withdrawn from the hole in order to preserve natural moisture content of the soil;
Shelby tubes containing cohesive material were processed and handled as follows:
disturbed soil at each end of the tube was removed and the length of the sample in the tube
was measured;
undisturbed soil at the bottom of the cohesive samples is tested with Pocket Penetrometer
and Torvane;
cohesive samples were transported to the laboratory in the Shelby tubes. After removal from
the borehole, the ends of the tubes were waxed using micro crystalline or paraffin wax at both
end of the sampler/tube to avoid moisture loss during storage and transport of samples to
the laboratory. The internal wall of the tube was cleaned and a circular plastic sheet was
placed over the soil sample before waxing. Any space left between the end of the tube and
the top of the wax was tightly packed with sawdust or other suitable material, and a close
fitting lid or screw cap was placed on each end of the tube;
Preserved extruded samples, tubes, and rings containing samples were labelled to show date,
boring number, sample number, the depth from which the sample is taken, direction of sample top
and length of recovery;
Suitable core boxes were provided for safe shipment of samples back to the laboratory.
3.4 Trial Pits

A total of ten (10) No. trial pits were excavated by mechanical means using a JCB to a maximum depth
of 2 m below ground level with floor area of 2 m x 1.5 m. Bulk disturbed samples were collected at every
0.5 m interval and at every change in strata. The trial pits were backfilled in layers and
tamped/compacted with the bottom of the excavator bucket. No ground water was encountered in the
trial pits.
The trial pit samples were labelled with project name, project number, trial pit number, method of
excavation, equipment, co-ordinates, elevation, dates commenced and completed, soil sample type,
numbers and depths.
The trial pit logs are presented in Appendix A. Trial pit photographs are presented in Appendix B.

SEAN ENC
3.5 Piezocone Penetration Tests

A total of twenty five (25) No. CPTs were performed as per the scope of works to a maximum depth of
10 m bgl or refusal, whichever occurred first. Due to the encounter of refusals at shallow depths (less
than 1 m bgl), additionally five (5) CPTs were performed at locations along the proposed route.
The tests were undertaken in accordance with ASTM D5778, using a 20 ton, hydraulic powered, lorry
mounted, Fugro cone penetrometer. Testing was carried out at a continuous penetration rate of
20mm/second, using a 200kN capacity Fugro electrical piezo cone equipped with pressure sensors and
pore pressure element behind the cone with a projected area of 15cm2, an apex angle of 60 and a
friction sleeve area of 200cm2.
The cone contains electrical load transducers measuring the cone tip resistance, sleeve friction, friction
ratio, inclination and pore pressure. Readings were taken continuously via an electric cable in the cone
rods. During the test, the data were displayed on a computer screen and continuously recorded to a hard
drive for later processing at the office.
The CPTu logs are presented in Appendix A.
4. LABORATORY TESTING PROGRAMME

5. SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
5.1 Soil Conditions

The soil conditions discussed below are based on data obtained from drilled boreholes, CPTs and
excavated trial pits.
5.1.1 Calcareous to Carbonate CLAY

Calcareous to carbonate clays (or marls) comprise the major part of the Fatha formation and are
encountered along the study area in variable thicknesses from the ground level to the maximum
investigated depth of 10m bgl. The clays comprise firm to hard, light brown to brown, sandy lean CLAY
(CL) and occasionally fat CLAY (CH). The clay layers are often cemented to various degrees, showing
higher qc and SPT N-values. Table 5.1 summarizes the range of measured qc, Rf and SPT N-values for
clays.

5.1.2 Sand and Gravel

The sand and gravel materials mainly comprise of medium dense to very dense, light brown, calcareous
silica to siliceous carbonate clayey SAND (SC), poorly-graded to well-graded GRAVEL with clay and
sand (GP-GC/GW) and/or poorly graded SAND with clay and gravel (SP-SC). These materials are
mostly observed in the flood plain deposits. Throughout the investigation depth. Table 5.2 summarizes
the range of measured qc, Rf and SPT N-values for sands and gravels:

5.2 Groundwater
Groundwater levels were taken only from boreholes during drilling as piezometers were not installed.
The water levels were observed before the start of drilling activities or during drilling activities and at the
end of each day.
The groundwater measured in boreholes might provide useful information. However, the boreholes may
not have been open long enough to obtain equilibrium groundwater levels. For the ground models
elaboration (Section 7 and Plate I25 to I41), the groundwater levels were estimated from both boreholes
and CPT pore pressure u2 readings. All groundwater levels are considered static; no artesian pressures
were encountered.

SEAN ENC
Groundwater levels can show variation with seasonal influences. In addition, groundwater levels are
likely to adjust following construction. A study of hydrogeological conditions is beyond the scope of this
report.
6. SITE CHARACTERISATION
6.1 Introduction
A number of physical properties of soil are required for engineering analysis. These are discussed below
in the text and presented on plates.
6.2 Basic Physical Properties
6.2.1 Moisture Content

The plot of moisture content versus depth is shown on Plate I9. The moisture content ranges from 0%
to 10% in non-cohesive soils (sands and gravels) and from 5% to 25% in cohesive soil (calcareous clays
or marl).
6.2.2 Unit Weight

The soil unit weight is obtained by means of the ring density method, which consists of weighing a soil
specimen sampled in a ring of known volume. The unit weight measurements are shown on Plate I10.
For engineering analysis the unit weight is estimated from both the laboratory test results and existing
correlations between the SPT N-value and the relative density for granular soils (Table 3-4 of Bowles,
1997).
6.2.3 Fines Content

The fines content with depth is presented on Plate I11. The fines content ranges from 0% to 45% (sands
and gravels) in non-cohesive soils and from 50% to 100% in cohesive soils (calcareous clays or marl).
6.2.4 Atterberg Limits

Atterberg limits were determined for all clays and for the fractions passing 425 micron of granular soils
in accordance with ASTM D4318. The plot of liquid limit (LL) and plastic limit (PL) measurements against
depth are shown on Plate I12.
When plotted on a chart of LL versus PI, the test data help to distinguish between clay and silt soils, as
shown on Plate I13. The results showed the values lie above the A-Line, indicating clay of low (CL) to
intermediate plasticity (CI).
6.3 Geochemical Composition

Geochemical properties of interest include pH, chloride, sulphate and carbonate contents. The chemical
tests were undertaken in the upper soils. The results of chemical analysis are plotted against depth on
Plates I14 to I17.
6.3.1 Chloride Content (Cl)

Chloride measurements indicate values up to 0.2% as shown on Plate I15. The implication of chloride
content for corrosion is discussed in Section 10.

SEAN ENC
6.3.2 Sulphate Content (SO3)

The sulphate content ranges from 1.0g/L to 2.5g/L, with few readings higher than 2.0g/L as shown on
Plate I16. The implication of sulphate content for corrosion is discussed in Section 10.
6.3.3 pH Values
The variation of pH with depth is shown on Plate I14. The pH values fall within a narrow range from 8.1
to 9.0. The soil can be classified as moderately alkaline to strongly alkaline according to the Soil Survey
Manual (1993).
6.3.4 Carbonate Content (CaCO3)

In general, the carbonate content values are high. CaCO3 values range from 30% to 50% in fine grained
soil and 45% to 55% in coarse-grained soils as shown on Plate I17. Based on ASTM D4373 following
Clark and Walker (1977), the fine-grained soils are classified as calcareous to carbonate and the coarse-
grained soils are classified as calcareous silica to siliceous carbonate, which confirms the visual
descriptions given during the investigation.
The calcareous clay material encountered is known as marl. Marls are composed mainly of clay minerals
and carbonate in varying proportions, normally between 35% and 65% (Bellair and Pormerol, 1980).
Due to their high carbonate content, the clays are cemented to various degrees to form deposits ranging
from slightly to moderately cemented.
6.4 Undrained Shear Strength (cu)

Undrained shear strength was measured from laboratory tri-axial unconsolidated Undrained (UU) test.
In addition to these tests, CPTs and SPT N-values can also be used to estimate the undrained shear
strength.
The undrained shear strength estimated from CPTs is defined as cu = (qc - v0) / Nk, where Nk is an
empirical cone factor and v0 is the total in situ vertical stress. The Nk factor is generally between 10 and
20 for most clays.
The undrained shear strength values can also be estimated from SPT N-values based on the correlation
provided by Terzaghi et al (1996). Table 6.1 provides the correlation between undrained shear strength
and SPT N-values.
Table 6.1: Correlation SPT (N Field) and Undrained Shear Strength

Soil Consistency SPT NField Value Undrained Shear Strength, Cu (kPa)
Very Soft <2 <12

Soft 24 12 25
Firm 48 25 50
Stiff 8 15 50 100
Very Stiff 15 30 100 200
Hard >30 >200

SEAN ENC
The carbonate content will have a definite beneficial effect on shear strength in case of calcareous to
carbonate clays (Agarwal et al. 1977,). It is however difficult to find a good agreement between the
undrained shear strength profiles obtained from CPT data and available cu results obtained from
laboratory triaxial tests. The cu values from CPT are generally overestimated due to the induced
cementation. Conversely, carbonate soils are particularly prone to sample disturbance, therefore
laboratory samples are often unrepresentative of the in situ condition and cu values underestimated.
Representative undrained shear strength values for each soil type considered in our engineering
assessment are given in Tables 7.1 to 7.17. The undrained shear strength values from laboratory tests
are shown on Plate I18.
6.5 Angle of Friction ()

The effective angle of friction () was estimated from laboratory direct shear (DS) tests and from CPT
data. In addition, value can also be estimated from STP N-values based on Table 3-4 of Bowles, 1997
and Peck et al., 1974.
Demars et al. performed CU tri-axial tests on calcareous clays with high carbonate content ranging from
10% to 90% and observed an increase in angle of internal friction with the increase in carbonate content.
The effective friction angle was also estimated from qc following a correlation proposed by Mayne (2001)
for clays. The interpreted from CPT data were significantly higher than those derived from DS tests.
The low value of is due to sampling disturbance or due to sample preparation of the specimens, since
the in situ cementation cannot be expected to be replicated by samples re-constituted in the laboratory.
The peak friction angle values for each soil type considered in our design are given in Tables 7.1 to 7.17
and the friction angle and cohesion results from the laboratory direct shear test are shown on Plates I19
and I20.
6.6 Compaction Properties
6.6.1 Introduction
This section describes the compaction properties of soil samples from the trial pits. The compaction tests
were performed to determine the relationship between moisture content and dry density.
The compaction tests were performed using the Proctor test described in ASTM D 1557-2012 where the
test is performed using a 4.5kg mass rammer. Two specimens were compacted in the Proctor mould to
determine the relationship between moisture content and density for each soil sample. The optimum
moisture content (OMC) that gives the maximum dry density (MDD) could then be determined for each
soil sample.
6.6.2 Optimum Moisture Content and Maximum Dry Density

The samples were collected from the trial pits over the first 1.0m bgl. The results of the compaction tests
are summarised in Table 6.2. The Variation of MDD and OMC with depth are shown on Plates I21
and I22.

OMC Optimum Moisture Content, MDD Maximum Dry Density
6.7 Activity of Clay

This section describes the composition of clays based on their physical properties. The behaviour of clay
is strongly influenced by the presence of water. Clay minerals appear in the form of small particles,
resulting in large specific surface areas. The amount of water that is attracted to the soil particle surface
governs the clay behaviour. Skempton (1953) identifies a simple parameter between the clay fraction
(< 5 m) and the PI to describe the activity of a soil:
PI
Activity
% by weight finer than 5 m
Skempton (1953) also shows that a particular clay mineral has a specific Activity. For example,
Montmorillonite has an Activity from 4 to 7. The Activity was used to assess the composition of clay and
possible swelling potential.
The range of PI and percentage of clay fraction measured on the clay materials at the site corresponds
with the kaolinite to illite clay minerals having Activity of 0.4 and 0.9, respectively. Plate I23 presents the
plot of plasticity index versus clay fraction. Table 6.3 presents the summary of clay Activity:
Table 6.3: Summary of Clay Activity
Parameter Symbol / Unit Fatha Formation Flood Plain
Clay Percentage (<5 m) [%] 11 61 12 61

Plasticity Index PI [%] 8 32 9 32
Activity [-] 0.4 0.9 0.3 1.1
6.8 Swelling Behaviour

The Activity (see Section 6.7) was used to assess the composition of clay and possible swelling potential
when exposed to moisture content variations. Seed et al. (1962) showed that the swelling behaviour of
compacted sand and clay minerals in the laboratory correlate well with compositional factors such as
Activity and clay content and is dependent on density and moisture content.
Based on the Seed et al. (1962) classification, most of the clay encountered may be classified as low to
medium potential for swelling as shown on Plate I24. Very few locations showed high swelling potential
clays.
Mitchell and Soga (2005) suggest that the classification based on Seed et al. (1962) should only be used
for preliminary guidance. As only the swelling soil in the near-surface would impact above ground
structures, no swell test was performed on deeper clay.

SEAN ENC
The classification of swelling potential was made according to Table 6.4.
Table 6.4: Expansive soil Classification System, ONeill and Poormoayed (1980)
Plasticity Percentage of Swelling Potential Swell
Liquid Limit
Index (%) Classification
< 50 < 25 < 0.5 Low
50 60 25 35 0.5 1.5 Medium
> 60 > 35 > 1.5 High
Values for each of these parameters on clay samples are given in Table 6.5 below:
Table 6.5: Summary of LL, PI Swelling Percentage and Swelling Pressure
Parameter Symbol Unit Fatha Formation Flood Plain
Liquid Limit(1) [%] 39 41 29 42

Plasticity Index(1) [-] 20 21 12 24
Percentage of Swelling [%] 0.22 0.28 0.15 0.43

Swelling Pressure
Potential Swell [-] Low Low
Classification
Notes:
(1) = Average value of LL and PI
(2) = Percentage of swell was measured under vertical loading of 2.5 kPa
According to Table 6.5, the swelling potential of clays encountered is classified as low risk and falls within
the classification based on Seed et al. (1962).
6.9 Elastic Modulus of Soil (E)

The elastic modulus of the soil is interpreted using the SPT values and the CPT results. The elastic
modulus values for each soil type considered in our engineering assessment are given in Tables 7.1
to 7.17, Section 7.
Values were estimated based on equations and value ranges for selected soils (Bowels J. E., Fifth
Edition, Table 2.8 and 5-6). Elastic behaviour was considered in both granular soils and calcareous
clays.
7. SIMPLIFIED GROUND MODELS

The proposed route has been divided into several sections based on the soil condition variability. In total,
17 simplified ground models were drawn up along the proposed route, one for each section.
Each ground model comprises at least one test location (BH, CPT and TP) which is considered
representative of the average ground conditions of the section.
The geotechnical parameters used as the basis for geotechnical design are summarized below in
Table 7.1 to 7.17, respectively Ground Model 1 to Ground model 17.

8.3 Soil Types Definition
8.3.1 Summary
As presented in Section 7, the proposed route has been divided into 17 ground models based on the
soil condition variability. Each ground model comprises at least one test location (BH, CPT and TP). To
simplify the foundation recommendations and reduce the number of design analyses, it has been
decided to classify the ground condition into different soil categories (Soil Types). The classification
criteria are based on both the soil condition and its capability of carrying the loads in terms of bearing
capacity.

9. FOUNDATION RECOMMANDATIONS
9.1 Shallow Foundations
9.1.1 General Design Considerations

Based on the subsurface conditions, shallow foundations are considered suitable for the proposed
development. The engineering assessment for shallow foundation design includes analysis for the
bearing pressure that provides a suitable factor of safety against bearing capacity, and the bearing
pressure to cause a maximum vertical settlement of 25mm. Shallow foundation uplift capacity was
beyond the scope of this report.
Net allowable bearing capacity is calculated for square footings of various widths (B=1.5m, B=2.5 and
B=3.5m), at a constant embedment depth of D=2.5m from the actual ground level.
9.1.2 Safe Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundations (Shear Criteria)

The ultimate bearing capacity (qult) is calculated based on shear failure criteria in accordance with
classical bearing capacity theory, considering bearing capacity factors recommended by Vesic (1973).

SEAN ENC
These factors are incorporated into the general bearing capacity formula following Terzaghis basic
format as follows:
qult c' Nc scdcicbc gc 'zD Nq sqdqiqbq gq 0.5 ' BN s d i b g
Where,
- Nc, Nq, N = bearing capacity factors
- sc, sq, s = shape factors
- dc, dq, d = depth factors
- ic, iq, i = load inclination factors =1
- bc, bq, b = base inclination factors =1
- gc, gq, g = ground inclination factors =1
The net safe bearing capacity (qnet) based on the shear failure criteria is determined by:
( qult ' D )
q net
F .S
Where,
- qnet = net safe bearing capacity (kPa)
- qult = ultimate bearing capacity (kPa)
- 'D = effective overburden pressure (kPa)
- F.S. = factor of safety = 3.0
9.1.3 Settlement Criteria

For the foundation settlement analysis, it is assumed that settlement could be modelled as elastic and
occurring primarily as short term/immediate settlements. All soil profiles comprise either frictional soils,
stiff to hard clay or unsaturated soft to firm clay. Hence, long term settlements due to creep and
secondary compression were not considered.
The immediate settlement under foundations has been based on the Boussinesq method as per the
following equation (5-16a Bowles 1997):
(1 2 D)
S i q0 B m I S I F
E
Where,
- q0 = net applied pressure on top of layer (based on Boussinesq Theory)
- = Poissons ratio of the soil (generic value of 0.33 considered)
- B = width of foundation
- E = elastic modulus of the soil under the foundation
- IF = foundation depth factor
- IS = foundation shape factor
9.1.4 Net Allowable Bearing Pressure

Based upon the safe bearing capacity (shear failure criteria) for a factor of safety of 3, and the safe
bearing pressure that yields an acceptable settlement of 25mm, the results of net maximum allowable
bearing pressures are summarised below in Table 9.1 for each Soil Type:

SEAN ENC
Table 9.1: Net Maximum Allowable Bearing Pressures for Square and Isolated Footing
Net Maximum Allowable Bearing Pressure (kPa), qna
D (m bgl) B (m)
Soil Type A Soil Type B Soil Type C Soil Type D
1.50 240 420 420 500
2.50 2.50 220 330 450 500
3.50 200 250 500* 500
Notes:
1. Allowable bearing pressures (qna) are calculated for limited settlement of 25mm
2. B - Width of foundation
3. D - Foundation depth
The allowable bearing pressure has been limited to a maximum of 500kPa (Bowles 5th edition, 1997).
Applied loads should not exceed the permissible stresses of the foundation concrete itself.
9.1.5 Net Allowable Bearing Loads (Vertical Loads)

The vertical allowable load on the foundation is obtained by multiplying allowable bearing pressures with
the respective foundation areas. Recommended values of net maximum allowable loads for the different
footing sizes are presented in Table 9.2.
Table 9.2: Net Maximum Allowable Loads for Square Footings

Net Maximum Allowable Loads (kN)
D (m bgl) B (m) Soil Type A Soil Type B Soil Type C Soil Type D
1.50 540 940 940 1120
2.50 2.50 1370 2000 2800 3120
3.50 2450 3060 6120 6120
Notes:
1. Loads are vertical loads. Application point of the loads is considered at the centre of the footing.
2. A maximum load inclination angle of =7 is considered. See Section 8.1.
9.1.6 Risk of Differential Settlements

A foundation total settlement limited to 25 mm is usually sufficient to ensure that differential settlement
between any two footings does not become excessive. There is a risk of excessive differential settlement
in case of sharp difference in loading occurs within short distances. More detailed analysis is
recommended at later stage of the project when the final foundation sizes are known. As a general rule,
where isolated pads show excessive differential settlement, an appropriate mitigation measure would be
to use larger pads, or embed the four tower legs into a single pedestal.
9.1.7 Uplift Capacity and Sliding Resistance

Uplift capacity and sliding resistance calculation for shallow foundations are beyond the scope of this
report. Recommended angles of repose and interface friction factors are given below in Table 9.3:
Table 9.3: Angle of Repose and Friction Factors for Shallow Foundations
Soil Type: Soil Type A Soil Type B Soil Type C Soil Type D
Angle of repose (deg) 20 25 25 25
Interface Friction factor * (-) 0.55 0.70 0.70 1.0
Notes:
(*) Friction factor = tan( = friction angle of soil beneath the foundation (NAVFAC DM7-02)

SEAN ENC
Values of angle of repose are considered representative should the Soil Types defined in Table 8.2 are
used as backfill and compacted as per the recommendations discussed in Section 11 (90 % of maximum
dry density defined by BS 1377: Part 4).
For the values of interface friction factor, a pedestal embedment of D=2.5m is considered. Values are
considered representative for an interface of mass concrete over the nature of soil defined in each
Soil Type.
9.2 Pile Foundations
9.2.1 General Design Considerations

Deep foundations may be used for design where structural loads cannot be supported by shallow
foundations, or where other factors limit the use of shallow foundations. For instance, should shallow
foundations be insufficient to support the uplift loads or if ground conditions different to those anticipated
are found (e.g. soft soils from ground level, fill, organic soils), piles may be considered to safely transfer
the imposed structural loads to deeper strata.
Due to restrictions in terms of drivability in the soil profile for driven piles, bored cast in-place piles
capacities are evaluated in this section. Analyses of the axial load capacity (under both compression
and tension), and lateral load capacity of bored piles of 300 mm diameter were carried out. Structural
analysis and design of the piles and pile cap, as well as reinforcement details, is not included in the
scope of works.
A single pile capacity analysis is undertaken. This allows an estimation of the number of piles required
beneath lattice towers to satisfy the working loads.
All ground profiles and geotechnical parameters used for the pile design are presented in Section 7. On
the same principle as for shallow foundation analysis, a pile capacity analysis is presented for each soil
category (Soil Types A, B, C and D), as defined in Section 8.3.
9.2.2 Axial Capacity of Single Pile (Compression and Uplift)
Design Basis
This section presents the axial and lateral capacity calculations for a single bored pile, 300 mm diameter,
for each soil condition (Soil Types A, B, C and D), as defined in Section 8.3.
Axial pile capacity was calculated using ALLPILE v7 software. Vertical analysis is based on the approach
and methods recommended in NAVY DM-7 (NAVFAC) manuals. For lateral analysis, ALLPILE software
directly uses COM624S calculation methods, with reference to FHWA-SA-91-048 using Wang and
Reese (1993) calculation methods.
The following principal design assumptions were made:
i. Single pile;
ii. Bored cast in-situ pile 300 mm diameter;
iii. Pile top cut-off level (bottom of pile cap) is assumed at the existing ground level;

SEAN ENC
iv. Fixed pile head condition;

v. Skin resistance neglected in the first meter bgl;
vi. Pile weight taken into account;
vii. Concrete compressive strength fc = 35 MPa;
viii. Total reinforcement section of 1% of the pile cross sectional area;
ix. Lateral settlement is limited to 12 mm;
x. Global safety factor of 2.0 against working loads for the axial pile capacity (AASHTO, 1992).
A uniform pile cap beneath the tower is recommended as per below justification:
i. The pile cap will relieve some of the load on the piles. This would increase the overall bearing
capacity. The pile relief is not considered in the current design, as a conservative approach;
ii. The pile cap will act beneficially by transferring wind loads to the soil, and thus reduce loading on
piles during tower rocking;
iii. The self-weight of the pile cap must be considered for the design of the foundation. It will bring a
non-negligible load to counteract the uplift working loads. As an example, for a leg to leg distance
within 2m (Dead-End 12M and DS Branch DB-14M), the area of the pile cap will be approximately
3 x 3 m = 9 m2. Assuming a height of the cap of 0.5 m and the weight of reinforced concrete
24 kN/m3, a crude calculation of the additional vertical load would be 9*0.5*24 100 kN.
Axial Pile Capacity

The estimated allowable axial pile capacity in both compression and tension is plotted on Plates 42 to
Plates 45, for Soil Type A to Soil Type D, respectively. The loads are derived from the ultimate axial pile
capacity divided by a global safety factor of 2. Maximum foundation loads to be supported can be
compared with these design charts to determine the approximate length and number of piles required
beneath the lattice tower.
As an indication, estimated allowable loads in compression and tension are presented in Table 9.3 and
9.4, respectively, for a single bored pile with various penetration length:
Table 9.3: Allowable Load in Compression of a Single Cast In-Situ Bored Pile

L = 6m 340 290 270 410
L = 8m 520 330 340 420
Notes:
1. All loads are for single pile.
2. Global safety factor of 2 applied.
At the pile termination depth it must be ensured that appropriate bottom cleaning techniques are adopted
by piling contractor. It is also important to ensure that there is continuity of the bearing strata at least 3
to 4 diameters below the end bearing depth.

L = 8m 220 200 220 110
Notes:
1. All loads are for single pile.
2. Global safety factor of 2 applied.
Pile Head Settlement

The calculated pile head settlement for a single pile under axial load in compression limited by allowable
capacity is given in Table 9.5. The results are based on Vesics recommendation (1977). Only the
maximum settlements are presented for each Soil Type.
Table 9.5: Pile Head Settlement in Compression under Vertical Allowable Capacity

L = 5m 3.0 2.0 4.0 8.0
L = 6m 4.0 4.0 4.0 8.0
L = 8m 4.0 3.0 4.0 6.0
Notes:
1. Pile settlement are based on Vesics recommendation (1977)
2. No safety factor applied.
The axial pile head load-displacement curves in compression are shown on Plates 46 to 62. No safety
factor was applied in the analysis of pile settlement. For all piles analysed, settlements are of the order
of 2 mm (Soil Type B) to 8 mm (Soil Type D) which is considered acceptable.
9.2.3 Lateral Capacity of Single Pile
Design Basis
This section presents the analysis for lateral load-displacement behaviour. ALLPILE software directly
uses COM624S calculation methods for lateral analysis, with reference to FHWA-SA-91-048 using Wang
and Reese, 1993 calculation methods.
In cohesive material, the main parameters for lateral pile design are the undrained shear strength (Cu)
and the strain at 50 % of the maximum stress measured in triaxial tests (50). The selection of the design
values for 50 follows recommendations by Matlock (1970) and is in the range 0.5 % to 2 %.
In frictional soil, the main parameters for lateral pile design are the effective friction angle () and the
rate of increase with depth of the initial modulus of subgrade reaction (k). These were selected following
ONeill and Murchison (1983) recommendations.
The parameter values used for the analysis of lateral pile load-displacement behaviour are presented on
Plates 63 to 79.

SEAN ENC
Lateral Load Deflection Response

The maximum bending moment of the pile is limited by the concrete class and reinforcement section.
Design basis about concrete and steel reinforcement are given in Section 9.2.2.1. Under a maximum
vertical load of 794kN, the maximum acceptable moment in a 300mm diameter concrete pile is 80kN-m.
The corresponding lateral load that results in a bending moment of 80kN-m at the pile head is given in
Table 9.6 for each Soil Type. A fixed pile head condition is assumed.
Table 9.6: Lateral Force and Maximum Bending Moment Fixed Head Condition
Maximum Bending Moment = 80 kN-m

Soil Type
Corresponding Pile Head
Lateral Loads [kN] Deflection [mm]
Soil Type A 110 7.0
Soil Type B 120 6.0
Soil Type C 85 7.0
Soil Type D 80 8.0
Notes:
1. Fixed Head condition is considered.
2. Maximum bending moment of pile must be checked given the actual concrete class and reinforcement section
The corresponding lateral loads have been verified as not generating a pile head deflection of more than
12 mm (maximum allowable pile head deflection).
9.2.4 Conclusion and Recommendations
Conclusion
Given the results for a single pile capacity analysis for each Soil Type (axial and lateral capacity), the
following points indicate possible foundation options.
For Soil Type A, B and C, a total of 4 piles beneath each pile cap would be sufficient to support the
working loads of all tower type. Considering the higher loads from DS Branch DB-14M (worst case
scenario), each pile will support a load of 794 kN / 4 200 kN in compression, and 763 kN / 4 190 kN
in tension, which is in the range of the allowable loads provided in Tables 9.3 and 9.4.
Soil Type D shows limited resistance in tension (60 to 110 kN for the considered piles length). The
preliminary analysis indicates that a total of 6 piles beneath the pile cap would be necessary to support
the maximum up-lift loads.
Structural analysis and design of the piles and pile cap, as well as relevant reinforcement, is not included
in the scope of works. It is considered that the technical information provided in this report will be
sufficient in order to proceed with the structural analysis and design of the piles and pile cap.
Pile Group Effect

A reduction in the individual bored pile capacity, to allow for group effects, is usually not necessary for
piles having a center-to-center spacing of 3 pile diameters or more. The reduction in individual capacity

SEAN ENC
depends on several factors including number of piles in the group, pile diameter and penetration,
spacing, etc. It is recommended to maintain a minimum center-to-center spacing (d) above 3D to reduce
substantial axial group effects. In the case of pile group effects are negligible, each pile will behave
individually, and the pile group capacity can be been taken as the sum of individual pile capacities.
Pile Load Test

It is recommended the performance of the pile be verified by pile load tests on site. There is no specific
guidance on the number of piles to be tested. We recommend to perform one pile load test (axial
compressive and tensile load test) of every change of soil type or every kilometres, whichever occurs
first along the route.
10. ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS
10.1 Regional Seismicity

Iraq is located in a relatively active seismic zone at the tectonically active northern and eastern
boundaries of the Arabian Plate and has a well-documented history of seismic activity.
The current study area is located close to Badra-Amarah fault. This fault is located in the north-eastern
borders of the Mesopotamian zone at the Iraq-Iran border. The length of the fault is about 500 km. This
fault is seismically active with earthquakes of magnitudes of 5.5 and focal depths of 33 km. About 30
focal mechanism solutions for this fault were calculated by the Harvard CMT for the time period from
1980 to 2012. The focal mechanism solutions show that the Badra-Amarah fault is a reverse fault with
strike direction equal to 310, dip direction equal to 220 and dip angle equal to 53.
10.2 Risk of Liquefaction

The study area generally comprise medium dense to very dense sands which are not prone to
liquefaction. Further detailed assessment is not the part of current scope.
10.3 Soil Corrosion
10.3.1 Summary of Soil Corrosion

These are the most significant parameters for shallow buried concrete and steel design:
i. Chloride content measured in the soil showed values up to 0.2% (Plate I9). More than half of the
samples tested showed values higher than 0.05%.
ii. Sulphate content measured in the soil showed values ranging from 1.0g/L to 2.5 g/L with few
reading higher than 2.0g/L (Plate I10);
CIRIA (2002) Special Publication 31 currently in use for reinforced concrete practice in the Gulf region
indicates that 0.2% or 2.0g/L total sulphate is considered significant. There is no widely accepted view
on the concentration at which chlorides become significant in soil or groundwater, but limited experience
in the Gulf region suggests it may be as low as 0.05% (CIRIA, 2002).

SEAN ENC
10.3.2 Chemical Corrosion of Steel Structures

Corrosion of steel is strongly affected by the amount of oxygen whereby high oxygen levels present a
greater risk of corrosion. There is typically significant oxygen content in the shallow surficial soil layers
especially for disturbed soils (excavated and backfilled trenches) compared to the low oxygen levels in
undisturbed and deeper soil layers. Thus, it is recommended that buried steel structures or above-ground
steel structures directly in contact with the soil be protected.
In general, the following methods can be used to protect steel from corrosion:
i. Passive barrier protection by coating steel with a protective coating system such as epoxy coating
and chlorinated rubber films;
ii. Active protection by applying a primer containing a reactive chemical compound such as zinc
phosphate directly to the steel;
iii. Sacrificial protection (cathodic or galvanic protection) such as zinc or metallic coatings, electro-
coatings and organic coatings such as paints.
For buried steel without provided passive or active protection, the design of steel wall thickness must
consider a corrosion allowance throughout the design life. A minimum corrosion allowance of
0.015 mm/year of wall thickness for a design life of 100 years is advised as per BS 8002. This minimum
corrosion allowance is within the range quoted by BS 8004 (1986) and consistent with the corrosion
rates derived from Eurocode 3.
10.3.3 Chemical Corrosion of Concrete
Sulphate Corrosion
The following conditions must be present for sulphate corrosion of concrete:
i. A source of sulphates;
ii. Mobile groundwater;
iii. Calcium hydroxide and calcium aluminate hydrate in the cement matrix.
Cracking of concrete together with white crystalline accumulations are characteristic for the conventional
form of sulphate corrosion. Depending on the percentage soluble SO4 in the soil or groundwater, various
categories of sulphate exposure are usually defined, which governs the cement type required following
Building Research Establishment (BRE, 2001) guidance.
The sulphate concentration found in the soil extract indicates that the environment would be classified
according to BS 8500-1 (2006), as follows:
i. Design Sulphate Class [Table A.2] = DS-3
ii. Aggressive Chemical Environment for Concrete (ACEC) Class [Table A.2] = AC-3
iii. Design Chemical Class [Table A.9] = DC-3

SEAN ENC
Limiting values of composition and properties for concrete as recommended in Table A.11 of
BS 8500-1 (2006) for DC-3 class may be used.
Chloride Corrosion
Chlorides originating in the ground can lead to degradation of concrete due to a physical mechanism
involving crystallisation of chloride salts near to the surface of the concrete. This is known as salt
weathering. Crystallisation of chlorides in pores may generate expansive stresses that could rupture the
concrete. Whenever there are chlorides in concrete containing embedded metal there is an increased
risk of corrosion of the metal. The presence of high concentrations of chlorides may also adversely affect
the sulphate resistance of concrete.
Where the ground is considered to have significant chloride and sulphate contents in soils, the exposure
condition is then classified as d(iv) for identifying concrete criteria as per CIRIA (2002), as shown in
Table 10.1.
Table 10.1: Criteria for reinforced concrete (CIRIA, 2002)

Minimum Cement Maximum Minimum Cover
Exposure
Content for 20mm
Condition water/cement ratio for Reinforcement (mm)
aggregates (kg/m3)
40 to 50mm
d(iv) 320 to 400 0.42 to 0.50
(for concrete cast against soil)
In accordance with BS 8500-1 (2006), given recommendations have to be compared for resistance to
chloride-induced corrosion and/or chemical attack (ex. sulphate), and the most onerous values
(ex. highest nominal cover, lowest w/c ratio, higher concrete compressive strength requirement) have to
be selected.
11. EARTHWORKS
General considerations for the design and construction of earthworks are described below.
11.1 Site Grading

It is recommended that topographical survey information is used in the development of a detailed grading
plan for earthworks such as excavation, filling, etc.
11.2 Excavation and Slope Stability

The upper soils are considered within the operating capacity of any traditional hydraulic excavator. As
an indication, none of the trial pits refused on site and they were terminated at a depth of 2m. No rocks
were encountered, therefore there should not be requirement for ripping or rock breaking.
It is unlikely that deep excavations take place for shallow foundations. Therefore slopes with a gradient
1.5(H):1.0(V) can easily apply to cuts with depth less than 1.5m.
If the above mentioned slope gradient cannot be achieved, such as for deeper excavations and when
sufficient space is not available, a suitable shoring (supporting) system, such as sheet pile among others,
is required.

SEAN ENC
11.3 Coefficient of Lateral Earth Pressure

Recommended earth pressure coefficients are presented in Table 11.1 for various types of soil
encountered on site. Jackys formula has been used to determine at-rest earth pressure coefficient K0
for soils, while considering a vertical wall face and horizontal backfill. The active (Ka) and passive (Kp)
coefficients were calculated based on Rankines earth pressure coefficients.
Table 11.1: Coefficient of Lateral Earth Pressure

Soil Type K0 [-] Ka [-] Kp [-]
Cemented, CLAY 0.42 0.27 3.70
Very stiff to hard, CLAY 0.50 0.33 3.00
Soft to firm, CLAY 0.57 0.40 2.50
Dense, SAND 0.42 0.27 3.70
Dense, GRAVEL 0.30 0.17 5.90
11.4 Backfill and Compaction Recommendations

In case of shallow foundations, the following guidelines refer to the placement and compaction of the
backfill material around the foundation:
i. The material should be placed in horizontal layers with uniform density and close to the optimum
moisture content (within +/- 3%);
ii. It is recommended to not exceed a maximum layer thickness sequences of 300mm;
iii. The material should be compacted to 90 % of maximum dry density defined by BS 1377: Part 4.
It is recommended that confirmation of compliance with compaction requirements be made by field

density tests on each compacted layer to confirm the degree of compaction.
11.5 Re-Use of the Excavated Soils

The upper soils likely to be excavated for foundations purpose are generally classified as CLAY or clayey
SAND having fines content mostly higher than 25% (Plate I5, Fines content versus depth). These soils
are generally not suitable as structural fill and embankments purposes, for the following reasons:
i. High fines content;

ii. High chloride and sulphate content that may result in corrosion of buried or near-surface steel
structures and cracking of concrete especially if precautions are not implemented.
If well graded SAND and GRAVEL are present in the flood plain area (e.g. along the branch route in the
quarries area, from BH-11 to BH-15), it should be noted these materials were encountered at depths
unlikely to be excavated (top of such layers was generally found 2m bgl).
12. TEMPORARY DRAINAGE MEASURES

The groundwater was mostly found below 7m bgl along the route at the investigation points. It is then
unlikely that shallow foundations be affected by normal seasonal change in these areas.

SEAN ENC
Along the Badra River (BH-06 to BH-10) the groundwater level was observed around 3.5m bgl. A sump
and pump system may be necessary to remove ingress water and keep dry the excavation in times of
heavy rainfalls.
13. SITE SUPERVISION

It is recommended that a suitably qualified engineer is present on site to ensure that the backfilling above
the shallow foundation is properly done, and that exposed subgrade soils are consistent with the
assumed ground conditions.
14. REPORT LIMITATIONS

Conclusions of subsurface conditions, mentioned herein, are based solely on the findings of the
investigation works conducted on site at the time of the study. This investigation identifies subsurface
conditions at the point where sampling and testing have been carried out.
Changes brought about to site and its adjacent vicinities due to construction, manmade or natural events,
proceeding the time of study are not within the scope of this report, neither is contradictory subsurface
conditions observed at later stages. Should this occur, Fugro Middle East should be notified immediately
to discuss with the client the necessity of re-evaluating the information reported herein.

APPENDIX D
Guideline for Use of Report

GUIDE FOR USE OF REPORT
INTRODUCTION
Fugro Engineers B.V. (FEBV) prepared this report. FEBV is a Fugro N.V. Group operating company. FEBV
specialises in providing geotechnical information and engineering advice for on-land, nearshore and offshore
construction projects. FEBV will hereafter be referred to as Fugro.
This document provides guidelines, recommendations and limitations regarding the use of information in this
report. The cost of geotechnical data acquisition, interpretation and monitoring is a small portion of the total
cost of a construction project. By contrast, the costs of correcting a wrongly designed programme or
mobilising alternative construction methods are often far greater than the cost of the original investigation.
Attention and adherence to the guidelines and recommendations presented in this guide and in the
geotechnical report can reduce delays and cost overruns related to geotechnical factors.
This guide applies equally to the use of geotechnical and multi-disciplinary project information and advice.
REQUIREMENTS FOR QUALITY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS
Fugro follows ISO 9001 quality principles for project management. Project activities usually comprise part of
specific phases of a construction project. The quality plan for the entire construction project must incorporate
geotechnical input in every phase - from the feasibility planning stages to project completion. The parties
involved must do the following.
Provide complete and accurate information necessary to plan an appropriate geotechnical site
investigation.
Describe the purpose(s), type(s) and construction methods of planned structures in detail.
Provide the time, financial, personnel and other resources necessary for the planning, execution and
follow-up of a site investigation programme.
Understand the limitations and degree of accuracy inherent in the geotechnical data and engineering
advice based upon these data.
During all design and construction activities, be aware of the limitations of geotechnical data and
geotechnical engineering analyses/advice, and use appropriate preventative measures.
Incorporate all geotechnical input in the design, planning, construction and other activities involving the
site and structures. Provide the entire geotechnical report to parties involved in design and
construction.
Use the geotechnical data and engineering advice for only the structures, site and activities which were
described to Fugro prior to and for the purpose of planning the geotechnical site investigation or
geotechnical engineering analysis programme.
AUTHORITY, TIME AND RESOURCES NECESSARY FOR QUALITY GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATIONS

ISSUE 08
To ensure compliance with these requirements, there must be adequate designation of authority and
accountability for geotechnical aspects of construction projects. This way, an appropriate investigation can be
performed, and the use of the results by project design and construction professionals can be optimised.
Figure 1 illustrates the importance of the initial project phases in ensuring that adequate geotechnical
information is gathered for a project. The initial phases, when site investigation requirements are defined and
Fugro 1996-2012
resources are allocated, are represented by more than 50% of the Quality triangle (Figure 1). Decisions and
actions made during these phases have a large impact of the outcome and thus the potential of the
investigation to meet project requirements.

THE REPORT
DATA ACQUISITION AND MONITORING PROGRAMMES
Geotechnical investigations are operations of discovery. Investigation should proceed in logical stages.
Planning must allow operational adjustments deemed necessary by newly available information. This
observational approach permits the development of a sound engineering strategy and reduces the risk of
discovering unexpected hazards during or after construction.
GEOTECHNICAL INFORMATION DATA TYPES AND LIMITATIONS
1. RELIABILITY OF SUPPLIED INFORMATION

Geotechnical engineering can involve the use of information and physical material that is publicly available or
supplied by the Client. Examples are geodetic data, geological maps, geophysical records, earthquake data,
earlier borehole logs and soil samples. Fugro endeavours to identify potential anomalies, but does not
independently verify the accuracy or completeness of public or Client-supplied information unless indicated
otherwise. This information, therefore, can limit the accuracy of the report.
ISSUE 08
2. COMPLEXITY OF GROUND CONDITIONS

There are hazards associated with the ground. An adequate understanding of these hazards can help to
minimize risks to a project and the site. The ground is a vital element of all structures which rest on or in the
ground. Information about ground behaviour is necessary to achieve a safe and economical structure. Often
less is known about the ground than for any other element of a structure.
Fugro 1996-2012
3. GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION - SPATIAL COVERAGE LIMITATIONS

Geotechnical investigations collect data at specific test locations. Interpretation of ground conditions away
from test locations is a matter of extrapolation and judgement based on geotechnical knowledge and
experience, but actual conditions in untested areas may differ from predictions. For example, the interface
between ground materials may be far more gradual or abrupt than a report indicates. It is not realistic to
expect a geotechnical investigation to reveal or anticipate every detail of ground conditions. Nevertheless, an
1 Site Investigation Steering Group SISG (1993), Site Investigation in Construction 2: Planning, Procurement and Quality
Management, Thomas Telford, London.
Page 2 of 3 FEBV/GEN/APP/006
investigation can reduce the residual risk associated with unforeseen conditions to a tolerable level. If ground
problems do arise, it is important to have geotechnical expertise available to help reduce and mitigate safety
and financial risks.
4. ROLE OF JUDGEMENT AND OPINION IN GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING

Geotechnical engineering is less exact than most other design disciplines, and requires extensive judgement
and opinion. Therefore, a geotechnical report may contain definitive statements that identify where the
responsibility of Fugro begins and ends. These are not exculpatory clauses designed to transfer liabilities to
another party, but they are statements that can help all parties involved to recognise their individual
responsibilities and take appropriate actions.
COMPLETE GEOTECHNICAL REPORT SHOULD BE AVAILABILE TO ALL PARTIES INVOLVED
To prevent costly construction problems, construction contractors should have access to the best available
information. They should have access to the complete original report to prevent or minimize any
misinterpretation of site conditions and engineering advice (Halligan et al.1). To prevent errors or omissions
that could lead to misinterpretation, geotechnical logs and illustrations should not be redrawn, and users of
geotechnical engineering information and advice should confer with the authors when applying the report
information and/or recommendations.
GEOTECHNICAL INFORMATION IS PROJECT-SPECIFIC
Fugros investigative programmes and engineering assessments are designed and conducted specifically for
the Client described project and conditions. Thus this report presents data and/or recommendations for a
unique construction project. Project-specific factors for a structure include but are not limited to:
location
size and configuration of structure
type and purpose or use of structure
other facilities or structures in the area.
Any factor that changes subsequent to the preparation of this report may affect its applicability. A specialised
review of the impact of changes would be necessary. Fugro is not responsible for conditions which develop
after any factor in site investigation programming or report development changes.
For purposes or parties other than the original project or Client, the report may not be adequate and should
not be used.
CHANGES IN SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS AFFECT THE ACCURACY / SUITABILITY OF THE DATA
Ground is complex and can be changed by natural phenomena such as earthquakes, floods, seabed scour
and groundwater fluctuations. Construction operations at or near the site can also change ground conditions.
This report considers conditions at the time of investigation. Construction decisions must consider any
ISSUE 08
changes in site conditions, regulatory provisions, technology or economic conditions subsequent to the
investigation. In general, two years after the report date, the information may be considered inaccurate or
unreliable. A specialist should be consulted regarding the adequacy of this geotechnical report for use after
any passage of time.
