Geotechnical Investigation for proposed construction of Sewerage Treatment Plant (STP) at

Kalyan Sagar Pond, Mahoba, Uttar Pradesh.
1. INTRODUCTION:
This report deals with Geo-technical investigation at the site for
proposed construction of Sewerage Treatment Plant (STP) at Kalyan Sagar Pond,
Mahoba, Uttar Pradesh. The work of conducting the detailed Geotechnical Investigation has
been awarded to us wide work order No. Nill on dated Nill, scope of which includes
investigation in field, laboratory testing of bulk samples collected from the site and submission
of the test report.
Geotechnical investigation carried out, with the locations which were planned by the
client. Purpose of the investigation is to determine the nature and properties of soil strata in the
bore holes and representing them through log sections showing the levels, nature and
properties of various strata up to a sufficient depth below the level suitable for foundation,
proneness of site to artesian conditions, seismic disturbance and other engineering properties of
soil.
This report includes the detailed methodology of investigation, collection of samples,
field and laboratory test result including their interpretation/ analysis, recommendations on the
properties of soils required for design of foundation and suggesting suitable type of foundation
with safe allowable bearing capacity for safe and strong foundation.
2. SCOPE OF WORK:
For the proposed construction of structure, it is required to determine
the safe allowable bearing capacity together with necessary engineering characteristics of
underlying soil strata. Since the safe bearing capacity of soils must be evaluated on the
considerations covering shear failure and permissible settlement of sub-soil strata as per IS:
6403-1981, IS: 1904-1978 and IS: 8009 (part-I)-1976 hence the scope of work is as follows:

3. PROJECT LOCATION:
The sites for proposed construction of of Sewerage
Treatment Plant (STP) at Kalyan Sagar Pond, Mahoba, Uttar Pradesh.
3.1. Geology:
The district Mahoba forms a part of the Bundelkhand Massif. The area is
underlain by Granite and basic intrusive of Precambrian age. Quaternary alluvial material
overlying the Precambrian granites unconformable marks a bid hiatus in the stratigraphic
history of the area. Geological sequence of the formation present in the district as follows.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Revision: R0

Geological succession of the formation
Precambrian Bundelkhand massif: This group mainly comprises granites that crop out as
isolated or clustered hillocks. Granites occurring in the district reflect considerable
heterogeneity in color texture grain size and composition. Most common granite in the district
is medium grain pink color composed of quartz, feldspar with mafic minerals biotite and
hornblende. Occasionally Corse grain feldspar quartz veins are also encountered in granite.
The granite are profusely and extensively jointed and fractured. The quartz reef trending NE-
SW occurs as narrow ridge. These reefs are composed of fine grained compact silicon material
and are milky white in color. The Bundelkhand Granite is traversed by basic intrusive mainly
dolerite of pre and post Cambrian age. They trend EW to NW-SE direction. The granites are
uncomfortably overlain by Quaternary alluvium consisting of Gravel, Sand and Clay. The
thickness of overburden varies from 5 to 40.0 m
3.2. Rainfall & Climate:

The average annual rainfall is 864 mm. The climate is typical
subtropical punctuated by long and intense summer. About 87% of the annual rainfall is
received from south-west monsoon. May is the hottest month with temperature shooting upto
47.5°C. With the advance of monsoon by about mid June, tempeature starts decreasing.
January is usually the coldest month with the temperature going upto 8.3°C.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Revision: R0

The relative humidity is highest during south-west monsoon
ranging between 80% to 85% with its lowest around 30% during peak summer months of April
and May.
3.3. Seismicity:
Mahoba district falls under moderate seismic hazard region i.e. Zone-II
as per latest Seismic Hazard Zonation Map of India provided by Bureau of Indian
Standards IS: 1893 (part-I), 2016.
4. OBSERVATIONS AT SITE:
The following observations have been made at the site:-

4.1 No effects of saltpetre have been observed however a mild effect of termite has been
observed at the site.
5. FIELD INVESTIGATION:
The field investigation work at this site was carried out from
June 09th, 2022 to June 09th, 2022. The following investigation work was carried out:
5.1. Five numbers of boreholes of diameter 150 mm were made within the proposed
layout. The boreholes progress using manual winch machine Casing was used to keep
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Revision: R0

the borehole stable. All the Bore holes (marked as BH-1, BH-2, BH-3, BH-4 & BH-5)
were made up to the depth of 4.95 metre within the layout for the proposed structure.
The locations of boreholes have been reported in “BOREHOLES LOCATION PLAN”
in Appendix A.
5.2. Standard Penetration Tests were conducted at 1.50 metre as per the procedure in IS
2131-1981 in all the bore holes. For conducting the test, the bottom of the borehole
was properly cleaned and split spoon sampler was properly seated in position in the
borehole. The split spoon sampler resting on the bottom of borehole was allowed to
sink under its own weight; then the sampler was allowed to penetrate 15 cm with the
blows of the hammer 63.50 kg weight falling free through 75cm, thereafter the split
spoon sampler was further driven by another 15 cm. For the 3rd and final drive, the
sampler was further allowed to penetrate 15 cm. The number of blows required to
affect each 15 cm of penetration was recorded. The first 15 cm of drive is considered
to be seating drive.
Structure of SPT Sampler
The total blows of penetration for the second and third 15 cm of penetration is termed
the penetration resistance N. The N’ values are indicative of the compactness/ relative
density of cohesion less soils and consistency of cohesive soils.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Revision: R0

In case the blows count of SPT in soil (including the number of blows of seating)
exceeds 100, the corresponding penetration was recorded and this particular test at that
depth stopped. If the total penetration is more than the seating penetration of 15 cm,
then breakup of blows count for 15 cm seating penetration and for remaining portion
of penetration is also given.
SPT ‘N’ values are correlated with relative of non-cohesive stratum as per BS: 5930
(1999) - for sandy strata and with consistency of cohesive stratum.
CORRELATION FOR CORRELATION FOR SAND/NON-

CLAY/PLASTIC SILT PLASTIC SILT
Consistency of Penetration Value Relative Density Penetration Value
clays of sand
Very Soft 0 to 2 Blows Very loose 0 to 4 Blows
Soft 3 to 4 Blows Loose 5 to 10 Blows
Medium Stiff 5 to 8 Blows Medium 11 to 30 Blows
Stiff 9 to 16 Blows Dense 31 to 50 Blows
Very Stiff 17 to 32 Blows Very Dense Above 50
Hard Above 32
In this method, the sampler acts as a probe and the driving energy is supplied by the
fall of the drop weight. The values of ‘N’ depend on the compactness or relative
density of the materiel. In hard formations, the testing is discontinued if ‘N’ value is
found to be more than 100. It is termed as refusal.
‘N’ value depends upon degree of saturation and over burden pressure of the
formation. Silty fine sand and fine sand below the water table develop pore water
pressure depending on the in-situ void ratio which in turn affects the effective stress.
This change in effective stress influences the ‘N’ value considerably. Terzaghi and
peck have recommended a correction for ‘N’ values in case of saturated silty and fine
sand when the ‘N’ observed in the field is higher than 15.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Revision: R0

Modified value ‘N’= 15+ (N-15)/2.
Soil sample obtained from standard spoon sampler for all above standard penetration
tests were collected in the polythene bags of suitable size. These samples were
property seal, labelled, record and carefully transported to the laboratory for testing.
The results have been reported in Table 1 to 5 of Appendix B under the title
“SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS”
5.3. Disturbed soil samples were tried to be collected at every 1.50 metre interval and at
significant change of stratum. Soil from cutting edge of SPT samplers and retained in
split spoon sampler, used for Standard Penetration Tests was taken as disturbed
samples. These samples were placed without delay in adequately sealed polythene
bags. Where the collection of disturbed soil samples could not be collected from SPT
samples, Shelby tubes were driven and retained soil samples were obtained. The
laboratory tests were conducted on the collected soil samples and reported in Table 1
to 5 of Appendix B under the title “SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS”.
5.4. Undisturbed soil samples were tried to be collected in accordance with IS: 2132-
1986. Undisturbed soil samples (UDS) was obtained at every 3.00 metre interval.
Undisturbed samples were collected using 100 mm dia and 450 mm
long MS tubes provided with sampler head with ball check arrangement. Collection of
Undisturbed samples in very hard cohesive soils/ dense granular soils/gravels/ cobbles/
pebbles/ boulders, refusal strata is practically not possible and such collected samples
will not truly represent the undisturbed conditions.
Immediately after taking and undisturbed sample in a tube, the adopter
head was removed along with the disturbed material. The visible ends of the samples
shall each be trimmed off any wet disturbed soil. The ends will then be coated

alternately with four layers of just molten wax. More molten wax will then be added to
give a total thickness of not less than 25mm. The laboratory test results have been
reported in Table 1 to 5 of Appendix B under the title “SUMMARY OF TEST
RESULTS”.
5.5. The depth at which ground water is struck during boring was carefully noted and the
depth of water table was ascertained subsequently in the completed borehole by the
following method.
The water table in the borehole was allowed to stabilize after 9, 24, 33 and 45 hours. It
was ensured that last two reading are identical.

Geotechnical Investigation for proposed construction of Sewerage Treatment Plant (STP) at Kalyan
Sagar Pond, Mahoba, Uttar Pradesh.
9.2 SETTLEMENT CRITERIA:
Soil strata at this site mainly consists of silty clays, hence the
settlement of the soil layers below the base of footing has been calculated on the basis of SPT
values obtained during the field Investigation.
Settlement for applied pressure (Sf) = (qs x Su x Df)/ (W’x100)
Where,
qs = Permissible pressure (kN/m2)
Su = Settlement for unit pressure of 1.00 kg/cm2
W’ =Water table correction factor

N = Corrected average SPT value
B = Base width
D = Depth of footing
Df = depth factor
Rf = Rigidity factor (1.00 & 0.80 for Isolated & Strip footing)
The settlement of isolated & strip footing at different depth and base width can be calculated as
per the following table:
