2. Introduction
M/s Unique Geo Test laboratory, NABL. Approved Laboratory & ISO 9001:2015 Certified

Company was entrusted by The chief pmg, Bhubaneswar for the work Geo-Technical

Investigation at above said Locations up to desired drilling depths (See Table-2)

3. Purpose
The Object of the current geotechnical investigation was to explore and determine the existing

sub-strata conditions such as stratification, Denseness or hardness of the strata, position of

ground water table at Bore Holes etc. and to evaluate approximate range of safe bearing capacity

for the proposed structure using empirical formulas provided in the relevant IS codes. The goal

of our investigation was to identify the key geotechnical issues that could potentially impact the

proposed project and to develop geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of

the project.

4. Scope of Works
Scope of Work Included with the followings: -

4.1. Field Marking of Bore Holes.

4.2. Drilling of 02 No’s Bore Holes up to desired depths (Refer to Table No-02) as per IS 1892.

4.3. Collection of Undisturbed/Disturbed Samples & Conducting Standard Penetration Test as per

IS 2131 & 2132 respectively.


4.4. Recording of Bore Hole Water Table (If met within drilled Depth)

4.5. Sealing & Transporting of Samples from Site to Laboratory.

4.6. Laboratory testing of samples for various Engineering & Index Properties.

4.7. A comprehensive Geotechnical investigation report embodying all the above Information

along with tables of Field / Lab tests results and bearing capacity computations.

5. Description of Project Site


5.1. Construction of Holiday Homes Building at Puri.

6. Field Investigation
6.1. General

In an attempt for optimization in the design of foundation for these proposed structures to be

constructed at this site, Geotechnical Investigation was envisaged. The entire Investigation

programme had been divided mainly into

Two parts, I) Field works & II) Laboratory tests.

I) Field works unfold the sub-surface deposit types, their characteristics & Behaviour of

Ground Water Table.

II) Laboratory test’s part would help determining the relevant physical and Geotechnical

properties of the sub-surface deposits leading to finalization of foundation depths of the

structures and the bearing capacity with particular reference to the sub-surface types and

their strength parameters and settlement potentials at the site.


6.2. Methodology for Drilling
For Sub Soil Exploration Rotary drilling method using Mechanical Rig was adopted at site. In this

system, boring is affected by the cutting action of a rotating bit which was kept in firm contact

with the bottom of the Bore hole. The bit is carried at the end of hollow, jointed drill rods which

are rotated by a spindle Rod connected to Gear Box. A Bentonite fluid is pumped continuously

down the hole through the hollow drilling rods and the fluid returns to the surface in the annular

space between the rods and the side of the hole, and so the protective casing may not be

generally necessary. But when the inner Surface of the Bore Holes are susceptible to collapse, the

Casings are installed to stabilize the Bore Holes.

In the Rocky Strata, the core Barrel with Diamond bit is used in place of Drill Bit at the down end

of the Drilling/Connecting rod & the boring is continued in same manner as above. The Core

Samples of Rock are cut and Collected in the Core Barrel which is recovered after Removal of

Barrel at relevant Depth Intervals

6.3. Field Testing


Standard Penetration Test

Standard Penetration Test was performed in the Bore Hole. The Standard Split Spoon Sampler

attached to the string of drilling rod down End lowered to bottom of the Drilling Depth of Bore

Hole & allowed to rest under its self-weight. The Drill rods were connected to driving assembly

which consisted of a hoisting equipment’s, a drive weight (Hammer) of 63.5 kg, and a guide to

ensure 75 cm free fall of hammer on an anvil connected to upper end of drill rods. The No. of

hammer Blows that were required to penetrate the sampler through three runs of 150mm each

were recorded. Nos of Blows for initial driving of 150mm was disregarded & the no of blows
required to drive the sampler through the remaining 300mm is called Blow Count or Penetration

number, N. If the penetration was less than 30cm for 50 blows, it is considered as refusal & N

value is noted as 50. At the end of the test, the sampler was withdrawn & the soil extracted from

the split spoon sampler for subsequent testing in the laboratory.

6.4. Corrections for SPT N Value


At field, the measured SPT N values affected by overburden pressure and pore water pressure, so

this un-corrected N value cannot be used for calculation of Bearing Capacity. So we have to

correct these values as described in IS 2131. There are two types of Corrections for SPT N value

i.e., Overburden Correction & Dilatancy Correction.

6.4.1. Overburden Correction


The Field SPT N value is generally higher in Larger Depth & Lower at Shallow Depth Due to

effective overburden Pressure in Cohesion-less Soil. To equivalent all these SPT N values,

overburden correction is made based on its effective overburden pressure at test depths as per

IS 2131:1981 Reaffirmed 2021 Figure-01. The Correction is made only in Cohesion less Soil

strata.

Corrected N value for overburden, N1=OCF× N

N1= Corrected N Value for Overburden.

OCF = Correction Factor for Overburden.

N = Measured SPT N value at Field.


6.4.2. Dilatancy Correction
This correction is generally made after overburden correction. This correction is made if,

Fine sand & Silts are present in submerge condition below the test depths because the

field test N value affected by the pore water pressure in above said conditions resulting

in higher N value. To neutralize this effect, we do this correction. Prior to apply this

correction make sure that N1>15, Otherwise N2=N1&N2 be final corrected Value to use

in calculations.

Corrected N value for Dilatancy, N2=15+ (N1-15)/2


6.5. Sampling & its Identification

Standard Penetration Test is conducted & Samples are collected from spoon sampler at

every change in strata or 1.5m intervals, whichever is earlier. Other Forms of samples

are UDS,DS, Wash and Rock Core & Rock Non-Coring. In Clayey Strata Undisturbed

Sample (UDS) is taken to know to the in-situ Density & Shear test Parameters of the Soil,

DS- Disturbed sample is collected at just below ground level & Where the SPT rebounds

the wash sample is collected to witness the strata.

Ground Water Table Determination of ground water table was measured using steel tape

and weight as per procedure laid in IS 6935:1973. At the time of Sub-soil investigation,

the encountered Water table depth is shown in Table-3 under clause no. 6.7 & in Bore-

hole log sheet under Annexure-I of present report.

9. Safe Bearing Capacity
9.1. Safe Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundation

A foundation fails by two Conditions i.e.

i) Shear failure.

ii) Excessive settlement.

Shear failure being catastrophic, an adequate factor of safety is applied to ultimate

Bearing capacity that can resist this type of failure. BIS recommends a value of FOS= 2.5

to obtain the net safe bearing capacity Qdn. by using the physical characteristics of the

foundation and relevant Test parameters of soil as per IS 6403: 1981Reaffirmed 2021.

Settlement analysis as per IS 8009 (Part-I):1977 Reaffirmed 2017for net loading

Intensity Qds is obtained by using the physical Characteristics of the foundation, SPT N

Value with fig. 09 of IS 8009 (Part-I):1977 Reaffirmed in 2017 and the relevant

Compressibility characteristics of the Underlying soil. The value so obtained ensures that

the foundation shall not settle more than that which is permissible as per BIS
Recommendations. The permissible settlement depends upon the type of superstructure

and the nature of supporting strata. Table-01 of IS 1904: 2021 may be followed for this.

The lesser of these computed values i.e. Qdn or Qds is adopted as the allowable Bearing

Capacity for proportioning the foundation of super structures. Detailed Calculations

with said formulas are annexed in this Report.

Abstract of the Safe Bearing Capacity for Shallow Foundation is given in Table-01 &

Detailed Calculation of Safe Bearing Capacity is attached in Appendix-C

10. Conclusion & Recommendation

Abstract of SBC for Shear and Settlement criteria is given in Table No-01 and the designer is at

liberty to decide the depth and the type of foundation intended basing on the sub-soil

characteristics made available in this report.

NOTES:

The following conclusions, suggestions and remarks are made based on the available test data

and sub-soil profiles as per bore logs contained in this report.

The selection of type of foundation is therefore governed primarily by the magnitude of the

maximum and permanent loading conditions, type of structure and allowable settlements.

The foundations typically must satisfy two independent design criteria. Firstly, there must be an
acceptable factor of safety against bearing capacity failure of the soil under the maximum

design load. Secondly, the total settlement of the foundation due to initial distortion and

consolidation of the soils under sustained loading during the lifetime of the structure should fall

within the limits that are structurally tolerable. (Refer IS 6403:1981-Clause-6.1 & 6.1.1 and IS:

1904:1986Table-1).

The safe bearing capacity of the sub-soil stratum has been calculated and has given in this report

(Table-01).

General Recommendation of foundation :-

 After analyzing all the engineering properties of the borehole, this is

indicative of poor graded silty sand strata is present up to 10.00 m depth

and therefore unsuitable for open foundation. Under the situation Pile

foundation is highly recommended for the structure.

 The Designer is at liberty to decide the depth, size and the type of

foundation intended basing on the sub-soil characteristics, Structure type &

Load for the design of foundation of the proposed structure.

 Pile shall be designed according to the structure load and conduct a load

test as per IS:2911 (P-4) on the initial pile to confirm the safe load carrying

capacity of pile before execution of the work.
