Standard Code of practice. However the directions issued by the authority in this respect has

been given due emphasis during the sub soil exploration work.

2. SCOPE OF WORK

The scope of work comprises of conducting detail soil investigation, laboratory testing,

conducting and estimation of safe bearing capacity for the above proposed work on drilled

borehole as shown by the Engineer-in charge.

i. Nature of Investigation Work

The all investigation consists of the following:

Visual reconnaissance of the site.

Field Work-Drilling of bore hole up to the required depth.

Laboratory experiments, determination of soil parameters.



Analysis of field and Laboratory data

Arriving at the conclusive decision on foundation system to be adopted in the present

case using Our Engineering judgment, based on the current practice. The detailed

Geo-technical investigation work that was carried out consists of two parts.

ii. Field Investigation:

The field investigation consists of the following methods

Location of One number of bore hole with due consultation with the authority.

Boring / drilling up to 10.0m depth below N.G.L or refusal.

Conducting standard penetration test (SPT) & Collection of undisturbed sample

(UDS) at the locations prefixed by the Engineer-in-charge.

Observation of the depth of water table in the Borehole.

Study of site condition and surroundings with regards to the need of the Project.

Taking observation of surrounding structure to observe any deficiency in safety.

Transportation of all soil samples to laboratory for analysis with proper care.

iii. Laboratory Tests:

The Laboratory tests for the sample collected are given below

Determination of Grain size analysis

Determination of soil moisture content

Determination of liquid limit

Determination of Allowable Bearing Pressure of Rock.



3. DETAILS OF FIELD WORK

i. Selection of Borehole:

One Bore-hole was selected by the Engineer in charge in order to obtain comprehensive

sub-soil data for this site with a provision of borings up to 10.0m depth as required as per

IS:1892 - 1979. For detailed laboratory investigation SPT is conducted @ 1.50 m intervals or

at change of soil Strata in different Boreholes and S.P.T soil samples were collected for

laboratory analysis. Disturbed representative, soil samples from all the Boreholes were

collected at 1.5 m. interval for different tests.

ii. Boring:

It is the main part of sub soil investigation work as the soil samples were collected for

different tests at different levels. The sub-soil exploration work at the proposed site was

carried out manually / mechanically using 150 mm diameter shell and auger manual

equipment in soft strata and power operated Mechanical boring in hard strata using diamond

cutter , as per IS : 1892 – 1979 .

iii. Standard Penetration Tests:

Standard penetration test plays a major role in sub soil investigation termination of safe

bearing capacity of soil in non cohesive type soil, particularly in non-cohesive granular sandy

soil and where the UDS could not be collected either due to high liquidity or non cohesive

nature of soil .The SPT tests were conducted as per IS: 2131-1981 respectively, in different

levels of the bore holes in a continuous manner using spilt-spoon samplers at locations

decided by Engineer-in-charge. The SPT sampler was lower inside the borehole after drilling

the required level and is driven by a 63.50 kg Rammer with a free fall of 750 mm. driving 450 mm in One stages 150 mm each and the number of blows for each 150mm penetration for

2nd & 3rd 150 mm drive recorded as “N”. Refusal was considered for N>100. The details of

location of test and SPT value [N] are presented in bore log data annexed separately.

iv. Ground Water Table:

During exploration work of the Location, 24hours observation it is found that the water table

is at 1.95m depth in BH-15 within the Boring depth from the existing ground level depending

on the location of boring. The water table may be fluctuating due to change of season.



4. LABORATORY TESTS

The laboratory-tests were conducted on selected representative disturbed / undisturbed soil

samples collected from different Borehole drilled at the proposed site. The tests include

Grain size analysis, Natural moisture content, D.F.S, Specific Gravity and Liquid limit, Plastic

limit, Plasticity index, Shear test, and Particles size distribution tests on representative soil

sample were also carried out. All the tests conducted confirming to the requirements of I.S

specification. The results of all these tests have been annexed separately.

i. Grain Size Analysis:

The grain size analysis of different soil samples were done as per the requirement of IS:

2720 (Pt-IV) 1985 – method of test for soil, Grain size analysis. The details of the test results

are shown test result sheet separately. The results of grain size analysis are used to classify

the soil in various depths of boreholes. The results of all these tests have been annexed

separately.

ii. Natural Moisture Content:

The natural moisture content was determined from different undisturbed samples of different

Boreholes at different depths, as per IS: 2720(Pt-II)-1973: Method of test for soil,

determination of Water content. It is used for determining specific gravity, optimum moisture

content, S.B.C, settlement of foundation system. The results of all these tests have been

annexed separately.

iii. Determination of Specific Gravity:

The specific gravity of the UDS / DS samples have been determined at different levels as

per IS: 2720 (Pt-III) - 1980. It is used for determining void ratio, porosity, saturated density,

S.B.C, settlement of foundation system. The results of all these tests have been annexed

separately.

iv. Determination of Void Ratio:

The void-ratio of the UDS / DS samples has been determined at different levels and the

results are shown separately. It is used for determining specific gravity, optimum moisture

content, S.B.C, settlement of foundation system. The results of all these tests have been

annexed separately.



v. Determination of Liquid Limit / Plastic Limit:

The liquid and plastic limits of soils were other index properties of soil have also been

determined as per the relevant as per IS: 2720(Pt-v)-1985 Code of practice. The liquid and

plastic limits of soil samples have been determined in the laboratory and it is used for

determining S.B.C, settlement of foundation system etc. The results of all these tests have

been annexed separately.

7. FOUNDATION & RECOMMENDATION

Based on our field and laboratory investigation, the following recommendations are made:

i. The stratum encountered in different boreholes at different depths is presented in

respective soil profile sheets.

ii. The water table if encountered in the boreholes is also indicated in the soil profile

sheets.

iii. The depth of foundation shall be decided based on bearing capacity and uplift

resistance required.

iv. The recommended safe bearing capacity for the footing is computed based on

footing size as specified for suggested foundations are given below.



v. As per site condition which, visual observations of soil samples at site, field bore log

record, local geology of the area, type of sample received, laboratory classification of

soil samples and based on the experience of our Geotechnical Expert, it is

recommended to provide open foundation.

vi. The recommended safe bearing capacity for the footing is computed based on

footing size as specified for suggested foundations are given below. It is feasible to

provide open foundations. Open foundations can be placed at a depth of 3.0m below

the existing ground level. However for heavily loaded structures the foundation depth

can be increased as per the design load.

8. LIMITATION

The soil investigation has been carried out at the location chosen by the client.

Recommendations made in the report are hence valid only for these tests locations.

However if there is any change in subsoil conditions and properties at places beyond chosen

test locations, the soil consultants be contacted for further guidance.

9. CLOSURE

We appreciate the opportunity given to us to submit this draft report. This presented report is

based on observations and tests on samples collected from the boreholes as decided by the

client. In case any difference is noticed in the field subsoil strata and reported subsoil strata

during excavation please contact us before proceeding with further construction.
