1.0 Introduction

Cambium Inc. (Cambium) was retained by The Municipal Infrastructure Group (Client) to

undertake a geotechnical investigation at the intersection of Taunton Road and Regional Road

57 (RR57) as well as at the Bowmanville Creek Bridge on Taunton Road in Bowmanville,

Ontario (Site). The investigation is part of a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA)

and detailed design project tendered by the Regional Municipality of Durham for the

Bowmanville Creek Bridge replacement and the reconstruction of the intersection of Taunton

Road and RR57.

At the time of the investigation, it was understood that the intersection reconstruction will

incorporate auxiliary lanes, improved radii to accommodate truck traffic turning movements,

and redesign of the existing lanes to accommodate current and future traffic volumes (storage,

taper, deceleration lengths). After completion of the investigation a second reconstruction

option was included in the study: construction of a roundabout at the intersection.

The Bowmanville Creek Bridge, located approximately 115 m west of the intersection, requires

replacement to accommodate the additional turn lanes, structural capacity and hydraulic

requirements. It is understood that the proposed bridge design will accommodate four (4) lanes

of traffic (two through lanes and a left and right turn lane) with 1.2 m wide paved shoulders.

The new bridge will be centered in the same location as the existing bridge, with widening

occurring to both the north and south sides.

The geotechnical investigation is required to determine the subgrade conditions at the existing

bridge abutments, the existing pavement structure along Taunton Road and RR57, as well as

subgrade conditions within the proposed road widening areas and in the location of an existing

culvert on the south leg of RR57.

This report presents the methodology and findings of the geotechnical investigation at the site

and provides geotechnical recommendations for the design and reconstruction of the Taunton

Road / RR57 intersection as well as the Bowmanville Creek Bridge replacement.

2.0 Methodology

The borehole investigation was developed based on the RFP requirements and input from the

Client and the Region. The investigation was modified and expanded to accommodate a

potential culvert replacement on the south leg of RR57 as well as potential storm sewer and

urbanization along the west side of the north leg of RR57. The number and location of

boreholes was developed with input from all parties in order to obtain subsurface information

for all potential work.

2.1 Borehole Investigation

A borehole investigation was conducted at the Site between June 19 and 21, 2017 to assess

subsurface conditions. A total of 26 boreholes, designated as BH101-17 through BH126-17,

were identified along all four (4) legs of the Taunton Road / RR57 intersection as well as at all

four (4) corners of the existing Bowmanville Creek bridge abutments. The borehole locations

were referenced by chainage and lane/shoulder location and the elevations were estimated

from the topographic survey provided by the Client. A summary of the borehole locations and

proposed drilling depths is provided in Table 1. The borehole locations are shown on Figures 1

to 4. Borehole logs are provided in Appendix A.

Drilling and sampling was completed using a truck-mounted drill rig operating under the

supervision of a Cambium technician. The boreholes were advanced to the sampling depths

by means of continuous flight solid stem augers with 50 mm O.D. split spoon samplers.

Standard Penetration Test (SPT) N values were recorded for the sampled intervals as the

number of blows required to drive a split spoon sampler 305 mm into the soil using a 63.5 kg

hammer falling 750 mm, as per ASTM D1586 procedures. The SPT N values are used in this

report to assess consistency of cohesive soils and relative density of non-cohesive materials.

Soil samples were collected at approximately 0.75 m intervals for the first 3.0 m and at 1.5 m

intervals thereafter. The encountered soil units were logged in the field using visual and tactile

methods and samples were placed in labelled plastic bags for transport, future reference,

possible laboratory testing, and storage.

Open boreholes were checked for groundwater and general stability prior to backfilling. Two

(2) of the deep boreholes for the bridge replacement were outfitted with monitoring wells in

order to measure the static groundwater level at the bridge. All boreholes were backfilled in

accordance with O.Reg. 903, as amended, and the property was reinstated to pre-existing

conditions.

Borehole logs are provided in Appendix A. Site soil and groundwater conditions are described

and geotechnical recommendations are discussed in the following sections of this report.

2.2 Topsoil Thickness

On July 6, 2017 Cambium technicians completed hand augers at each of the four (4) corners

of the intersection of Taunton Road and RR57 to determine topsoil thickness for removal

purposes.

2.3 Physical Laboratory Testing

Physical laboratory testing, include 11 sieve analyses (LS-702) and 5 sieve and hydrometer

analyses (LS-702,705) were completed on selected soil samples to confirm textural

classification and granular reuse potential and to assess geotechnical parameters. Moisture

content testing was completed on all soil samples. Results are presented in Appendix B and

are discussed in Section 3.0.

2.4 Environmental Laboratory Testing

Four (4) representative soil samples taken from the hand augers completed at each corner of

the Taunton Road / RR57 intersection were submitted to Caduceon Laboratories in Kingston,

Ontario, a Canadian Association of Laboratory Accreditation (CALA) certified environmental

laboratory. One (1) soil sample, taken from the upper 0.3 m of soil, was submitted from each

corner of the intersection for the following analyses: metals and inorganics; sodium adsorption

ratio (SAR) and electrical conductivity (EC); petroleum hydrocarbons (PHC F1-F4);

polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs); and benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX).

The environmental testing results are summarized in Section 3.6 and the laboratory certificates

of analysis are included in Appendix C.

3.0 Subsurface Conditions

Subsurface conditions at the Site generally consist of a pavement structure overlying glacial till

soils, extending to the borehole termination depths of up to 8.0 mbgs. Bedrock was not

encountered within the investigation depths. The glacial till soils were predominantly silty sand

to sandy silt in texture with some finer-grained till soils identified along Taunton Road west of

RR57.

The encountered subsurface conditions are discussed in more detail below and borehole logs

are provided in Appendix A.

3.1 Topsoil

On July 6, 2017 a Cambium technician was on site to determine topsoil thickness at each of

the four corners of the Taunton Road / RR57 intersection. Five topsoil samples were taken at

each corner using hand augers. The topsoil thickness varies from 25 mm to 250 mm with an

overall average of 138 mm. The average topsoil thickness at each corner of the intersection is

as follows:

Northwest corner – 147 mm

Northeast corner – 102 mm

Southwest corner – 142 mm

Southeast corner – 137 mm

Overall – 138 mm

The topsoil was a dark brown silty sand and was moist at the time of the investigation.

Assessments of organic matter content or other topsoil quality tests were beyond the scope of

this study.

3.2 Pavement Structure

On Taunton Road the driving lane asphalt thickness varies from 60 mm to 150 mm with an

average thickness of 98 mm except at the Bowmanville Creek bridge, where the asphalt

thickness in the driving lanes was observed to vary from 250 mm to 450 mm. On Taunton

Road west of RR57 the shoulder locations varied from unpaved (BH106-17) to an asphalt

thickness of 30 mm to 90 mm. At the bridge, the westbound shoulder has 125 mm of asphalt.

On the east side of the RR57 the shoulder locations along Taunton Road were unpaved.

On RR57 the driving lane asphalt thickness varies from 60 mm to 150 mm with an average

thickness of 102 mm. All of the shoulder borehole locations were unpaved except at borehole

BH115-17, where a 30 mm thick layer of asphalt was encountered.

Beneath the asphalt or at the surface of some of the shoulder boreholes, a layer of granular fill

material was observed. Along Taunton Road the granular material varied from 570 mm to 700

mm, with thicker granular material observed in the four (4) boreholes at the Bowmanville Creek

bridge (950 mm to 1,400 mm). Along RR57 the granular material varied in thickness from 610

mm to 650 mm.

The texture of the granular material generally varied from a gravelly sand with some silt to a

silty sand with some gravel to gravelly, was brown in colour and moist at the time of the

investigation. Based on SPT N values ranging from 11 to greater than 50 blows for 305 mm of

penetration, the granular material has a compact to very dense relative density.

Laboratory particle size distribution analyses were completed for 11 samples of the fill material,

taken from immediately below the asphalt surface or from the just below the surface in the

shoulder boreholes. The analysis results, based on the Unified Soil Classification System

(USCS) scale, are summarized in Table 2 with full results provided in Appendix B.

The results of the laboratory testing indicate that the granular fill does not meet the

requirements for Granular B with a higher percentage of fines (material passing the No.200 (75

µm) sieve) than is acceptable (10% to 41% versus 8%). The granular material is acceptable for

reuse for general subgrade fill and site grading.

In locations where the percentage of fines within the granular fill is close to the 8%

specification or where material visually looks acceptable, consideration can be given to

stockpiling this material on site during construction and completing additional testing to confirm

potential reuse as Granular B material during road reconstruction.

3.3 Glacial Till

Overall, the subsurface conditions below the pavement structure resemble a glacial till

material, varying in texture from a fine grained clay and silt to a coarser grained gravelly sand.

In the upper 3.0 m in some locations, this material appears to be reworked native till material

based on lower SPT N values and the presence of organics between 1.5 m and 3.0 m depth.

Below this depth, the material resembles an undisturbed glacial till.

The glacial till material is predominantly a silty sand with a trace to some clay and gravel. The

predominantly silty sand material was generally brown to dark brown in colour, with some grey

colouring observed below 2.3 m depth in boreholes BH112-17, BH114-17, BH115-17, and

BH117-17 as well as below 3.0 m depth in the four (4) boreholes augered adjacent to the

Bowmanville bridge (BH123-17 through BH126-17). The silty sand material was moist to wet at

the time of the investigation with wet to saturated conditions observed below 4.0 m depth in the

four deep boreholes adjacent to the Bowmanville bridge. The natural moisture content of the

silty sand material varies from 7% to 19% based on laboratory testing, with higher moisture

content observed in those reworked soils with organics. The relative density of the silty sand

material is loose to very dense based on SPT N values varying from 5 to greater than 50 blows

for 305 mm of penetration. The low SPT N values seem to correspond to reworked material. In

the boreholes adjacent to the bridge, consistently very dense material was encountered

between 6.0 m and 7.5 m depth.

As indicated above, some pockets of fine grained clay and silt to clayey silt, with a trace to

some sand and gravel were observed, specifically on the west leg of Taunton Road in

boreholes BH103-17, BH106-17, BH124-17, and BH125-17. The fine grained material was

brown to grey in colour and about to wetter than plastic limit (APL to WTPL) at the time of the

investigation, with natural moisture content varying from 16% to 27%.

Laboratory particle size distribution analyses were completed for four (4) samples of the till

material, taken from boreholes and depth shown below. The analysis results, based on the

Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) scale, are summarized in Table 3 with full results

provided in Appendix B.

In boreholes BH121-17 and BH122-17, on the shoulders on either side of the culvert

located across RR57, south of Taunton Road, organics were observed between 1.5 m

and 3.0 mm depth.

At three of the four boreholes located adjacent to the Bowmanville bridge (BH123-17,

BH124-17, and BH126-17) trace organics were observed between 1.5 m and 2.7 m

depth.

3.4 Bedrock

Bedrock was not encountered within the investigation depths. All boreholes were terminated in

native soil at depths ranging from 1.2 mbgs to 8.1 mbgs.

3.5 Groundwater

Only two (2) of the boreholes experienced caving on completion of drilling: borehole BH107-17

caved to 1.8 mbgs and borehole BH126-17 caved to 6.1 mbgs. All other boreholes remained

open on completion.

Groundwater seepage was observed in 12 of the boreholes on completion of drilling, to depths

of 1.8 mbgs to 3.7 mbgs. In all four (4) boreholes adjacent to the bridge groundwater seepage

was observed to depths of 2.4 m to 3.7 m below ground surface, with grey and saturated soils

observed below 3.0 m depth in all of the boreholes.

Two (2) monitoring wells were installed as part of the drilling investigation. Boreholes BH123-

17 and BH124-17, located adjacent to the bridge, were outfitted with 50 mm diameter

monitoring wells. On July 6, 2017 the static water level at the site was measured at 2.54 mbgs

and 2.39 mbgs, respectively, corresponding to a groundwater elevation of 157.3 to 156.4 m,

respectively.

It should be noted that soil moisture and groundwater levels at the Site may fluctuate

seasonally and in response to climatic events.

3.6 Environmental Testing Results

The Ministry of the Environment (MOE) document Soil, Ground Water and Sediment

Standards for Use Under Part XV.1 of the Environmental Protection Act (Ministry of the

Environment, 2011), herein referred to as the Standard, was referenced in determining the

applicable criteria for the Site. The chemical testing results were compared with Table 1 of the

Standard, Residential/Parkland/Institutional/Industrial/Commercial/Community (RPIICC)

Property Use, to determine exceedances and to provide the necessary information for the

disposal of any excess soils.

The soil samples were field screened and the worst case sample from each hand auger

completed at each corner of the intersection was for analysis, for a total of four (4) soil

samples. The samples were submitted to Caduceon Laboratories for analysis of metals,

inorganics, SAR, EC, PHCs, BTEX, and PCBs.

Laboratory chemical test results show that concentrations of the tested parameters in the

samples submitted for chemical analysis meet all of the parameters in the current MOE Table

1 Standard for RPIICC Property Use with the following exceptions:

Exceedance in electrical conductivity (EC) in the NW corner

The results are summarized in Appended Table 13 and the Certificates of Analysis are

included in Appendix C.

Based on the test results, the following handling options are available for soils sampled and

tested under this program:

Remain on-site to be appropriately reused as backfill or for re-grading, under the

guidance of a Qualified Person (QP) as defined by the MOECC and as approved by a

geotechnical engineer;

Accepted by a Receiving Site with specifications for receipt of soil based on the above

test results under the guidance of the receiving site’s QP and Fill Management Plan, and

subject to the municipality’s fill bylaw;

4.0 Geotechnical Considerations

The following recommendations are based on the borehole information and are intended to

assist designers. Recommendations should not be construed as providing instructions to

contractors, who should form their own opinions about site conditions, particularly when it

comes to groundwater seepage. It is possible that subsurface conditions beyond the borehole

locations may vary from those observed. If significant variations are found before or during

construction, Cambium should be contacted so that we can reassess our findings, if

necessary.

4.1 General Site Preparation

Existing topsoil, deleterious fill, and any surficial organic matter identified or found shall be

excavated and removed from beneath any areas of the Site to be developed. The stripped

surface must be proof rolled and/or approved by Cambium prior to placement of additional fill

or foundations.

In the location of the existing bridge across Bowmanville Creek, subsurface conditions consist

of loose to compact silty sand to sand and gravel with some organic material observed

extending to approximately 3.0 m depth. The measured groundwater in this area is 2.5 mbgs

at elevation 157.4 masl. Given the loose to compact soils, the presence of organic material

and the measured groundwater table, shallow footings are not recommended for the bridge

abutments. With the presence of consistently very dense native till soils at 8.0 m depth

(elevation 152 masl) either caissons to this depth or H-piles driven to practical refusal are

recommended as foundation alternatives. This avoids the need to dewater due to shallow

groundwater conditions or remove the organic material observed to 3.0 m depth in the vicinity

of the bridge.

Based on the anticipated excavation depth for the culvert across RR57 south of Taunton Road

the subgrade material is expected to consist of compact silty sand soils which are acceptable

for supporting the culvert. If engineered fill placement is required for the structure, it should be

Cambium Inc. Page 13

noted that when placing soil that will act as support for foundation that placement and

compaction should occur during temperatures above freezing.

In areas of cut or minor fill where the proof roll and/ or inspection has identified unsuitable

subgrade conditions, whether too soft or too wet, material is to be removed and replaced with

an approved OPSS 1010 SSM or Granular ‘B’ Type I compacted material, under guidance of

Cambium Staff.

4.2 Excavations

Temporary excavations must be carried out in accordance with the latest edition of the

Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA). As per the OHSA, excavations in soils above the

groundwater table can have unsupported site slopes of 1H:1V based on the classification of

the shallower soils as Type 3 soils in accordance with OHSA. Any excavations below the

groundwater table will require shoring.

Excavation side slopes should be protected from exposure to precipitation and associated

ground surface runoff and should be inspected regularly for signs of instability. If localized

instability is noted during excavations or if wet conditions are encountered, the side slopes

should be flattened as required to maintain safe working conditions or excavation sidewalls

must be fully supported (shored).

4.3 Dewatering

4.3.1 Road Construction

Excavations for road improvements are not expected to be deeper than 2.5 m depth (elevation

157.3 masl), the groundwater level measured in the two monitoring wells installed on Taunton

Road adjacent to the Bowmanville Creek bridge. Soil moisture conditions on all four (4) legs of

the intersection were generally moist within the upper 2.0 m depth with some wet conditions

observed below 1.5 m depth. While excavations for construction of the road improvements are

unlikely to extend below 2.5 m depth; however, some groundwater seepage in the excavations

is anticipated. Given the fine grained nature of the subgrade soils, it is anticipated that the

Page 18: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

The Municipal Infrastructure Group on behalf of the Regional Municipality of Durham

Ref. No.: 5512-001

June 1, 2018

Cambium Inc. Page 14

seepage should be controllable with filtered sumps and pumps. A Permit to Take Water

(PTTW) from the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change and registration on the

Environmental Activity and Sector Registry (EASR) is not anticipated as pumping rates should

not exceed 50,000 L/day.

Installation of storm sewers along Regional Road 57 may require advance dewatering

depending on the depth of the storm sewer. Additional recommendations on dewatering can

be provided once the depth of the excavations is determined.

It is noted that the elevation of the groundwater table will vary due to seasonal conditions and

in response to heavy precipitation events.

4.3.2 Bridge Abutments

Deep foundations are recommended for the bridge abutments due to the loose to compact

density of the shallow subsurface soils, the presence of organic material to 3.0 m depth, and

the measured groundwater table at 2.5 m depth (elevation 157.4 masl). If deep foundations are

used, groundwater seepage and potential dewatering issues are not relevant to the

construction of the bridge abutments.

4.3.3 Culvert (1500 mm dia Culvert, 130 m South of Taunton Road)

Based on the inferred excavations depths, the predominantly silty sand soils, and the existing

groundwater conditions, groundwater seepage should be anticipated in excavations extending

below a depth of approximately 2.5 m. Excavations required to install the proposed culvert to

be located 130 m south of Taunton Road, will likely extend below this depth. If the culvert is

installed during a dry season, seepage into the excavation would likely be manageable using

filtered sumps and pumps within the excavation. If the work is done in a wetter time of year or

if excavations need to extend significantly below a depth of 2.5 m, advanced dewatering using

a well point system will be required to lower the groundwater table prior to construction.

Temporary rerouting of the creek will be required to facilitate the replacement of the culvert.

Options for rerouting include construction of a temporary culvert/channel or the construction of

a cofferdam with a pump to pump the water around the construction area. An advance

Cambium Inc. Page 15

dewatering system would require a Permit to Take Water from the Ministry of the Environment

and Climate Change and registration on the EASR.

It should be noted that the groundwater table and the level of the reservoir are influenced by

seasonal fluctuations and major precipitation events.

4.4 Backfill and Compaction

Excavated native silty sand to sandy silt soils from the site may be appropriate for use as fill

below grading areas, provided that the actual or adjusted moisture content at the time of

construction is within a range that permits compaction to required densities. Some moisture

content adjustments may be required depending upon seasonal conditions. Geotechnical

inspections and testing of engineered fill are required to confirm acceptable quality.

Any engineered fill for foundations should be placed in maximum 200 mm thick lifts and should

be compacted to a minimum of 100% of standard Proctor maximum dry density (SPMDD). If

conditions are wet at the time of construction, compaction of granular fill may not be possible

and 19 mm diameter crushed clear stone wrapped in a geotextile filter fabric (Terrafix 270R or

equivalent) should be used in place of engineered fill.

Foundation wall backfill should consist of free-draining imported granular material. Most of the

native site soils are too fine-grained to provide proper drainage, and as such this should be

accomplished using well graded Granular B Type 2 material complying with OPSS 1010.

Backfill should be placed in lifts not exceeding 250 mm in thickness and compacted to 98 % of

SPMDD.

Placement of engineered fill should be verified by onsite compaction testing during

construction.

4.4.1 Engineered Fill

For any fill treated as an engineered fill to support structural elements such as foundations, the

following is recommended for the construction of engineered fill:

Page 20: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

Cambium Inc. Page 16

I. Remove any and all existing vegetation, surficial topsoil/ organics, organic fills or fills and

any loose soils to a competent subgrade for a suitable envelope;

II. The area of the engineered fill should extend horizontally 1 m beyond the outside edge

of the foundations then extend downward at a 1:1 slope to the competent native soil;

III. The subgrade or base of the engineered fill area must be approved by Cambium prior to

placement of any new fill, to ensure that suitability of subgrade condition;

IV. Place approved OPSS 1010 SSM or Granular ‘B’ Type I material at a moisture content at

or near optimum moisture in suitable maximum 200 mm thick lifts, compacted to 100

percent SPMDD.

V. Any frost penetration into the fill material must be removed prior to placement of

subsequent lifts of fill or reviewed by Cambium;

VI. Full time testing and inspection of the engineered fill will be required for it to be used as

a founding material, as outlined in Section 4.2.2.2 of the Ontario Building Code.

4.5 Lateral Earth Pressure

Lateral earth pressure coefficients (K) for foundation and retaining wall design are provided

below for the case of a horizontal backfill surface (i.e. the ground surface is not inclined). It is

assumed that potential lateral loads will result from cohesionless, frictional materials, such as

granular backfill used against the bridge abutments. An angle of internal friction of 35° can be

assumed for compacted granular backfill.

Ko (at rest) 0.43

Ka (active) 0.27

Kp (passive) 3.7

The following formula may be used to calculate active lateral thrust (Pa) on yielding retaining

structures;

Pa= (H/2)(Ka)(γH+2q)

where,

Cambium Inc. Page 17

H = Height of retaining structure (m)

γ= unit weight of retained soil (kN/m3)

q = surcharge (kPa)

A unit weight of 21 kN/m3 should be assumed for compacted granular backfill loadings.

4.6 Frost Penetration

Based on climate data and design charts, the maximum frost penetration depth below the

pavement at the Site is estimated at 1.2 m.

Exterior footings and pile caps for the proposed structure should be situated at or below this

depth for frost penetration or should be protected.

It is assumed that the pavement structure thickness will be less than 1.2 m, so grading and

drainage are very important for good pavement performance and life expectancy.

4.7 Foundation Design – Bridge Abutments

As discussed in Section 4.1, the preferred foundation options for the bridge abutments include

concrete caissons and driven H-piles.

4.7.1 Concrete Caissons

If the Site is prepared as outlined in Section 4.1 and concrete caissons are selected to support

the bridge abutments the caissons should extend to a depth of 8.0 m below the existing road

surface (elevation 151.8 masl) terminating in very dense glacial till soils. At this elevation, the

native soils are competent to support the caissons, which can be designed for a bearing

capacity of 250 kPa (SLS) and 375 kPa (ULS). This has assumed that the caissons will be end

bearing only given the significant depth of loose to compact soil above the till. The caissons

should be spaced no closer than three (3) times the diameter on centre.

During installation, a temporary liner must be installed to permit hand cleaning, if necessary,

and to seal off any caving or groundwater seepage. A positive head of concrete inside the

Page 22: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

The Municipal Infrastructure Group on behalf of the Regional Municipality of Durham

Ref. No.: 5512-001

June 1, 2018

Cambium Inc. Page 18

temporary steel liner must be maintained during withdrawal of the liner to prevent “necking” of

the caissons.

4.7.2 Driven H-Piles

H-piles driven to practical refusal in very dense till soils between 9.0 m and 12.0 m below

existing road surface (approximate elevation 148 to 151 masl) are appropriate to support the

bridge abutments.

4.7.2.1 Axial Geotechnical Resistance

Based on the potential length of the H-piles, a minimum pile size of HP 310x110 is

recommended. A factored axial resistance at ULS of 1,100 kN may be used for any H-Piles

driven to practical refusal in very dense glacial till.

Pile driving termination or set criteria will be dependent on the pile driving hammer, type,

helmet and length of pile. The criteria must therefore be established at the time of construction

after the piling equipment is known. The driving criteria should be selected to ensure that the

piles are not overdriven to avoid possible damage to the piles.

Piling operations should be inspected on a full time basis by geotechnical personnel.

4.7.2.2 Resistance to Lateral Loads

Lateral loadings can be fully or partially resisted by the use of battered H-Piles. Otherwise, the

resistance to lateral loading can be derived from through passive earth pressures developed in

the soils in which the piles are embedded. Very dense silty sand glacial till soils encountered in

the boreholes indicate that the piles will be approximately 9.0 m to 12.0 m in length depending

upon the design of the bridge abutments. Lateral pile resistance may be considered in

accordance with Section 6.4 of the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code (CHBDC).

For lateral soil-pile interaction analysis, the horizontal subgrade reaction (lateral spring

parameters) to the pile may be calculated from the following expression based on the largely

cohesionless soils at the site:

ks = nh(z/d)

Page 23: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

where ks = Coefficient of horizontal subgrade reaction

nh = coefficient related to soil density

d = pile width (310 mm for HP310x110)

z = depth

The values of nh for the various soil types encountered in the borehole investigation are

summarized in Table 4.

Soil Type and Density Nh (kN/m3)

Compact sands, silty sands 6,000

Dense to very dense silty sand to sandy silt till 14,000

Compact Granular Fill 6,000

4.8 Foundation Design – 1500 mm Culvert, 130 m South of Taunton Road

4.8.1 Bearing Capacity

The subgrade soils between 3.0 m and 5.0 m depth (approximate elevation 158 masl to 160

masl) consist of compact silty sand to sand and silty till or engineered fill, both of which are

competent for founding the culvert base. The allowable bearing capacity of these soils is 150

kPa at serviceability limit state (SLS) and 225 kPa at ultimate limit state (ULS). The quality of

the subgrade should be inspected by a Geotechnical Engineer during construction, prior to

laying the culvert bedding, to confirm bearing capacity estimates. Settlement potential at the

above-noted SLS loadings is less than 25 mm and differential settlement should be less than

10 mm.

4.8.2 Culvert Bedding

The compact silty sand to sand and silt soils found at depths of between 3.0 m and 5.0 m are

considered suitable for the support of the bedding for the proposed replacement culvert.

Bedding should consist of a minimum of 150 mm of OPSS 1010 Granular ‘A’ compacted to

98% of standard Proctor maximum dry density. If, during construction, it is not possible to keep

the excavations for the bedding material in a fully dry state, bedding for the proposed culvert

Page 24: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

The Municipal Infrastructure Group on behalf of the Regional Municipality of Durham

Ref. No.: 5512-001

Cambium Inc. Page 20

below the standing water should consist of at least 300 mm of 19 mm crushed clear stone

wrapped in a geotextile filter fabric (Terrafix 270R or equivalent). The bedding should be

placed and then the surface compacted with a vibratory plate compactor. A levelling pad

consisting of uncompacted Granular ‘A’ or fine aggregate (OPSS 1002) may be required, if so,

the levelling pad should be separated from the clear stone with another layer of geotextile.

4.8.3 Erosion Protection

The existing subsoils at the invert level of the culvert consist of silty sand to silt and sand. It is

assumed that seasonal water flow velocities may be sufficiently high to require scour and

erosion protection.

In order to prevent water from flowing either beneath the culvert (potentially causing

undermining and scouring), or around the culvert (causing erosion and loss of backfill

material), a clay seal or cut-off headwall should be provided at both ends of the culvert. If cut-

off headwalls are used, the backfill around the headwalls should consist of fine grained soils

with a low hydraulic conductivity such as clayey silt or silt and clay.

Erosion protection should be provided upstream and downstream of the culvert using non-

woven geotextiles and rip-rap suitable for the hydraulic requirements.

4.9 Pavement Design

Pavement design options are provided based on the results of the geotechnical investigation.

These options should be revisited with final design preparations. If the preferred option is a

roundabout design, additional boreholes in the shoulders and potentially outside of the current

right-of-way are recommended to confirm subgrade conditions.

Both Taunton Road and RR57 are Type A arterial roads within the regional road network. A

review of the Region’s ‘Design Specifications for Roads and Entranceways’ dated April 2017

indicates that, as a minimum, a typical hot-mix asphalt road structure will be a minimum of 910

mm thick and include the following:

160 mm Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA)

Cambium Inc. Page 22

It should be noted that at the Bowmanville Creek bridge on Taunton Road west of RR57, the

pavement structure observed in boreholes BH123-17 through BH126-17 is much thicker than

the observed pavement structure along the rest of Taunton Road and RR57. The asphalt

thickness at the bridge varied from 250 mm to 450 mm and the granular material varied in

thickness from 950 mm to 1,400 mm, for an overall pavement thickness of 1,400 mm.

Understanding that the bridge is being rebuilt, this thicker pavement structure is not included in

the overall averages and will not be a concern for any of the pavement design options

providing that it does not extend outside of the bridge limits. However, consideration should be

given to completing some additional coring to determine the extent of the thicker pavement

structure along Taunton Road to determine whether this will need to be handled differently

than the proposed pavement design options.

The pavement design options provided below are developed with this proposed minimum

guideline in mind; however, the pavement design should be revisited with final design

preparations.

4.9.1 Site Preparation and Compaction

The performance of the pavement is dependent upon proper subgrade preparation and

drainage. Any surficial organic material or organic material encountered at the proposed

subgrade elevation should be removed from beneath the proposed road and shoulder areas

and backfilled with approved engineered fill or native material, compacted to 98 percent

SPMDD. The subgrade should be proof rolled and inspected by a Geotechnical Engineer. Any

areas where rutting or appreciable deflection is noted should be subexcavated and replaced

with suitable fill. The fill should be compacted to at least 98 percent SPMDD.

Compaction of the subgrade should be verified by the Engineer prior to placing the granular fill.

Granular layers should be placed in 150 mm maximum loose lifts and compacted to 100

percent of SPMDD (ASTM D698) standard. The granular materials specified should conform to

OPSS standards, as confirmed by appropriate materials testing.

Material and thickness substitutions must be approved by the Design Engineer.

Page 27: Geotechnical Investigation Report Taunton Road / RR57 ...

The Municipal Infrastructure Group on behalf of the Regional Municipality of Durham

Ref. No.: 5512-001

June 1, 2018

Cambium Inc. Page 23

The thickness of the subbase layer could be increased at the discretion of the Engineer, to

accommodate site conditions at the time of construction, including soft or weak subgrade soil

replacement.

The final asphalt surface should be sloped at a minimum of 2 percent to shed runoff. Abutting

pavements should be sawcut to provide clean vertical joints with new pavement areas.

Given the frost susceptible nature of the subgrade soils, subdrains are recommended beneath

the pavement structure connecting to a frost-free outlet in all areas with an urban cross section

(curb and gutter). In rural areas subdrains are not required if adequate ditching is provided to

allow for proper drainage of the granular material. If insufficient space is available for ditching,

subdrains should be installed beneath the pavement structure and connected to a frost free

outlet to allow for adequate drainage.

4.9.2 Widenings

The following recommendations should be followed for any proposed roadway widenings:

Organic topsoil, earth fill, and frozen earth encountered at subgrade elevation should be

removed for the full width of construction;

Any widenings should conform to Ontario Provincial Standard Drawings (OPSD) 208.010

and 209.010;

Prior to the placement of granular fill the subgrade should be proof rolled for the purpose

of detecting possible zones of overly wet or soft soils. Any deleterious areas identified

should be replaced with granular material compacted to a minimum of 98 % of its SPMDD;

and

The subgrade surface should be graded to prevent ponding of water during construction

and to promote rapid drainage of the sub-base and base course materials.

4.9.3 AASHTO 1993 Method

Upon review of the field data associated with each of the roads the recommended pavement

design is provided below as determine using the 1993 American Association of State Highway

and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Guide for the design of Pavement Structures, using the

Darwin Software.

The AASHTO pavement design method considers many design factors including future road

traffic (ESALs), road classification reliability (R), standard deviation (So), subgrade resilient

modulus (Mr), and initial (P0) and terminal (Pt) serviceability. Using these parameters, the

structural number (SN) is calculated and is defined as the number which provides a measure

of the pavement strength and thickness needed to avoid over-stressing the subgrade, based

on AASHTO standards.

The design parameters used for both Taunton Road and Regional Road 57 are summarized in

Table 8. The AADT, traffic growth, and truck percentages that feed into the ESAL calculation

were taken from the traffic report prepared for this project.

The asphalt and Granular Base ‘A‘ minimum requirements from the AASHTO analysis are in

line with the Region’s minimum pavement structure requirements for Type A arterial Roads

(HMA = 160 mm and Granular A = 150 mm). However, the minimum requirement for the

Granular Subbase ‘B’ Type I material is significantly less than the Region’s minimum standard

of 600 mm. Cambium recommends a minimum subbase thickness in line with the Region’s

standard of 600 mm in order to provide adequate drainage of the granular material. Good

drainage will provide better structural integrity to the pavement structure and potentially

prolong the life of the pavement.

The recommended minimum GBE for the reconstructed pavement along Taunton Road and

Regional Road 57 is provided in Table 10. This GBE meets the minimum requirements

outlined in the Region’s 2017 document noted in Section 4.9 and exceeds the minimum

requirements calculated using the AASHTO methodology, providing better drainage with a

thicker subbase layer.

4.9.4 Pavement Design Options

It is understood that a grade raise is undesirable both along Taunton Road, particularly in the

Bowmanville Creek bridge, as well as along Regional Road 57, particularly north of Taunton

Road along the west side due to the numerous driveways.

Pavement design options that result in no grade raise include full depth reconstruction removal

of a portion of the existing pavement structure and replacing it with an increased thickness of

asphalt.

Full depth reconstruction will allow for installation of the preferred minimum pavement structure

to meet the GBE requirement of the Region’s standard for Type A arterial roads without a

grade raise.

Removal of a specific thickness of the existing pavement structure and replacement with a

thicker layer of asphalt than required in the minimum pavement structure will improve the GBE

over existing but will not meet the minimum GBE required to meet the Region’s Type A arterial

road standard. One option is to remove the top 200 mm of asphalt and granular material and

replace it with 200 mm of HMA placed in 50 mm lifts. Another option is to remove the top 350

mm of asphalt and granular material and replace it with 150 mm of Granular A and 200 mm of

HMA. The resulting GBE for these two options is provided in Table 11 for Taunton Road and

Table 12 for Regional Road 57.

Any remediation option involving milling and pulverizing cannot meet the minimum GBE

specification without a grade raise. Where a grade raise is possible on Regional Road 57,

consideration could be given to utilizing the pavement rehabilitation strategy provided in Table

12 but with the addition of additional Granular A below the proposed asphalt. The thickness of

the Granular A could be matched to the allowable grade raise.

4.10 Design Review and Inspections

Cambium should be contacted to review and approve design drawings, prior to tendering or

commencing construction, to ensure that all pertinent geotechnical-related factors have been

addressed. It is important that onsite geotechnical supervision be provided at this Site for

excavation and backfill procedures, deleterious soil removal, subgrade inspections, and

compaction and concrete testing.

A Geotechnical Engineering and Construction Testing and Inspection firm should be retained

to complete testing and inspections during construction operations to examine and approve

subgrade conditions, placement and compaction of fill materials, granular base courses, and

asphaltic concrete.

Qualifications and Limitations

Limited Warranty

In performing work on behalf of a client, Cambium relies on its client to provide instructions on

the scope of its retainer and, on that basis, Cambium determines the precise nature of the

work to be performed. Cambium undertakes all work in accordance with applicable accepted

industry practices and standards. Unless required under local laws, other than as expressly

stated herein, no other warranties or conditions, either expressed or implied, are made

regarding the services, work or reports provided.

Reliance on Materials and Information

The findings and results presented in reports prepared by Cambium are based on the

materials and information provided by the client to Cambium and on the facts, conditions and

circumstances encountered by Cambium during the performance of the work requested by the

client. In formulating its findings and results into a report, Cambium assumes that the

information and materials provided by the client or obtained by Cambium from the client or

otherwise are factual, accurate and represent a true depiction of the circumstances that exist.

Cambium relies on its client to inform Cambium if there are changes to any such information

and materials. Cambium does not review, analyze or attempt to verify the accuracy or

completeness of the information or materials provided, or circumstances encountered, other

than in accordance with applicable accepted industry practice. Cambium will not be

responsible for matters arising from incomplete, incorrect or misleading information or from

facts or circumstances that are not fully disclosed to or that are concealed from Cambium

during the provision of services, work or reports.

Facts, conditions, information and circumstances may vary with time and locations and

Cambium’s work is based on a review of such matters as they existed at the particular time

and location indicated in its reports. No assurance is made by Cambium that the facts,

conditions, information, circumstances or any underlying assumptions made by Cambium in

connection with the work performed will not change after the work is completed and a report is

submitted. If any such changes occur or additional information is obtained, Cambium should
