4.0 FIELD INVESTIGATIONS:

4.1 Boring
Bore holes of 150mm size were drilled by shell and auger method driven by power
operated winch as per IS: 1892-1979. Casings were used as per requirement to retain
the bore holes in position. The Bore holes were advanced up to 20.0m depth below
existing ground surface and demobilized on satisfactory completion of the entire field
work.

4.2 Standard penetration test (SPT)

These tests were conducted in the above bore holes at every 1.50 m interval & at
change of strata as per specifications / instructions of Engineer-in-Charge. The bores
were cleaned up to the desired depths. Standard split spoon sampler attached to lower
end of ‘A’ drill rods was driven in the bore holes by means of standard hammer of
63.5 Kg. falling freely from a height of 75 cm. The sampler was driven 45 cm as per
specifications & the numbers of blows required for each 15 cm penetration were
recorded. The numbers of blows for the first 15 cm penetration were not taken into
account. This was considered as seating drive. The numbers of blows for next 30 cm
penetration were designated as SPT ‘N’ value. Wherever the total penetration was less
than 45 cm, the number of blows & the depth penetrated is incorporated in respective
bore logs. Disturbed soil samples obtained from standard split spoon sampler for all the
above standard penetration tests were collected in polythene bags of suitable size.
These samples were properly sealed, labelled, recorded and carefully transported to the
laboratory for testing.

4.3 The undisturbed soil samples were collected in good quality thin walled seamless
tubes, of min. dia of 100mm and length of 450 mm with area ratio less than 10%. The
UDS tubes are gently pushed in soil using hydraulic push rig/gently hammering
action. After retrieval of UDS tube from the borehole, ends of the tube with sample
were sealed with freshly molten wax of minimum 20 mm thick, properly labeled,
marked an arrow showing upward direction and dispatched to laboratory for testing.
At site, sample tubes were covered with wet gunny bags. When the UDS tubes were
not penetrated into the subsoil strata, it was clearly mentioned on the bore log sheet.
4.4 Disturbed soil samples were also collected from the bore holes at suitable
depths/intervals to supplement the boring records. These samples were collected in
polythene bags of suitable size. These samples were properly sealed, labeled, recorded
& carefully transported to the laboratory for testing.
4.5 Density and natural moisture contents of soil samples from the boreholes at different
depths were measured in the laboratory and the values are indicated in laboratory test
results in Bore Log table.
4.6 Recording of Water Table

From 7.50m to 20.45m depths consists of grayish fine sand (SP-SM) having SPT field
‘N’ values ranging from 32 to 62 showing dense to very dense compactness of the
strata.
The subsoil strata are medium dense to very dense up to the depth of exploration. The
detail description of subsoil strata encountered along with various laboratory test
results are presented in the respective bore logs given in soil profile is enclosed as
ANNEXURE- A (1) & (2). The subsoil profile depicting the distribution of the
various subsoil strata along with observed ‘N’ values with depth together with other
test results are given in soil profile is enclosed as ANNEXURE- A (2).
The depth wise observed & corrected SPT values of subsoil strata, Grain size curves,
direct shear and field log sheet are enclosed as ANNEXURE- B (1) to (3).
Water table is observed at a depths varying from ____m to ____m and with the
seasonal variation the same is expected to go up and accordingly for design purpose
water table should be considered at the foundation level.

7.2 ASSESSMENT OF LIQUEFACTION

The range of variation of geotechnical properties for each layer required for analysis
of Tower foundations was estimated by various laboratory and field tests with
reasonable accuracy. Based on the laboratory test data and field test data, Liquefaction
analysis performed for the top 20m thick saturated sandy silt, silty sand and fine sand
soil layers for design earthquake of Magnitude = 7.0 & acceleration as 0.24g indicates
that the factor of safety against liquefaction, FSL for all layers is much higher than
1.0.

7.3 CHEMICAL ANALYSIS ON SOIL SAMPLES AND WATER SAMPLES

The results of chemical tests are within the permissible limit as per Indian Standard
Code and are safe for construction purposes and the same are given in ANNEXURE

8.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

All loose soils/debris/human waste /chemical waste material should be removed and
the exposed foundation bearing surface should be watered and compacted properly
using rammers / rollers. The surface should then be protected from disturbances due
to construction activities so that the foundations may bear on the natural undisturbed
ground. For open foundations, we opine placement of 100 mm thick “blinding layer”
of lean concrete to facilitate placement of reinforcing steel and to protect the soils
from disturbance and also to ensure stable bed to facilitate placement of
reinforcement steel.
Considering the nature of soil, type of proposed structures, expected loads on
foundations & foundation subjected to overturning moment, suggested foundations is
500mmm diameter cast-in situ Pile foundation & Pile Capacities recommended for
design purposes are given in the following table.

Annexure B
 OPEN SHALLOW FOUNDATIONS:

The allowable bearing capacity of sub-soil strata for Open foundation has been
computed from shear and settlement failure considerations.

Allowable Bearing Capacity

The net intensity of loading which the foundation will carry without undergoing
settlement in excess of the permissible value for the structure under consideration but
not exceeding net safe bearing capacity.

Net Safe Bearing Capacity from Shear consideration

For Clayey Soil ( = 0)

The values are computed from unconfined compressive strength UCS, using the
following equation;
qd = cu Nc Sc dc - Refer IS:6403, Clause 5.3
where
qd = Net Ultimate bearing capacity

A factor of safety of 2.5 is used.

Considering  = 0, Nc = 5.14
Thus the equation is simplified as
q (Net safe) = 1 / 2.5 x cu x 5.14 Sc dc
= 2.056 C Sc dc

For C -  Soils

Refer IS:6403 – 1981, Clause 5.1

qd’ = 2/3 Cu Nc’ Sc dc +  D ( Nq’ – 1) Sq dq + 0.5  B N’ S d W ’

where
qd and qd’ are net ultimate bearing capacity for general and local shear failure
Net safe bearing capacity = 1 / 2.5 x Net ultimate bearing capacity

Bearing capacity factor shall be determined for  for general shear failure
and ’ = tan –1(0.67 tan) for local shear failure.

Shape and depth factors shall be determined as per IS: 6403-1981.

For cohesion less soil with eo value less than 0.55, values are computed for General
shear failure, for eo values between 0. 55 to 0.75 the values are computed by linear
interpolation between local and general shear failure, and for e o value greater than
0.75 the values are computed for local shear failure.

For footing resting on multilayer deposit, Bowls recommends that the ultimate
bearing capacity of footing be determined using average values of cohesion, Cav and
angle of shearing resistance, av. The average values are computed over a depth H
below the base of footing,
where
H = 0.5 B tan (45 +  /2)

Safe Bearing Pressure from Settlement Consideration.

For Normal Consolidated Clay

Sf = Sc + Si
Sc =  Soed
Si = pB(1-2) I /E; will be negligible
 = poission’s ratio,
Soed = (hI cc /(1 + e0) ) log10 ((p’ + p0’) / p0’))
(Reference: clause 9.2.2.2 IS 8009 (Part I))

p0’ = effective overburden pressure (t/sq.m)

p’ = net increase in pressure at centre of cohesive soil layer

For Precompressed Clays

S1 = Sc (for fully saturated clays)

Sc =  Soed;  is taken from table – 1, IS: 8009 (Part – 1), 0.7
Soed = mv hI p

(Reference: clause 9.2.2.3 IS 8009 (Part I))

where;

hI = thickness of soil layer (m)

mv = Coefficient of volume compression
p = net increase in pressure at center of cohesive soil layer

If clays are lightly over consolidated, then the above method may be adopted but if
the clay is heavily over consolidated, it may not be necessary to compute the
settlement.

If the soil deposits consist of several regular soil layers in the influence zone, the
settlement of each layer below the foundation shall be computed and summed to
obtain the total settlement.

The settlement contribution by non-cohesive / partially cohesive soil layer shall be

estimated by the methods in clause 9.1, IS: 8009 (Part I); De Beer Marten method
shall be used.

De Beer and Martens’ Procedure

S2 = (2.303 / Ci) log10 ((p + p0’) / p0’))hi

hI = thickness of soil layer (m)
Ci = a constant of compressibility = 3/2 (Ckd / p0’)
Ckd = average static cone resistance
p0’ = effective overburden pressure (t/sq.m)
p = net increase in pressure at centre of non-cohesive/ partially cohesive
soil layer
