CHAPTER - 1
INTRODUCTION

1.1 In an attempt to facilitate the design of the proposed/ new construction of the
foundation structure.

SUBJECT: - SUBSOIL INVESTIGATION FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF 1000

BEDDED (G+5 STOREYED) BOYS HOSTEL

A subsoil investigation work was programmed by the authority and for this work; the
service is executed by M/s. Kumar Consulting Engineers, Ranchi

TO,

Executive Engineer and SM ©-1 Central Public Works Department, GPOA Building,
Burmamines Jamshedpur, Jharkhand 831007
1.2 The scope of the soil investigation consisted of making 10 nos. of bore holes at this site.
1.3 The formation at the site is to be reported for various layers presented at their respective
depth along with their thickness. This would also include the subsoil properties for each
stratum so as to come up with the design parameters for designing foundations, the depth of
foundation and the selection of type of foundation. As the ground water table location
influences the bearing capacity of a foundation and the method of construction of a
foundation at the site, its location has also to be found.
1.4 Soil samples in disturbed condition are collected. These samples would be taken to the
laboratory for different laboratory tests to obtain various properties of sub-soil formation.
1.5 The exploration of the sub-soil formation being limited to 10 nos. bore holes it is suggested
that due weighted is given to the unexplored part of the area at the time of selecting design
parameter.

CHAPTER - 4
FOUNDATION DESIGN ASPECTS

A suitable foundation for any structure should have an adequate factor of safety exceeding the
bearing capacity of the supporting soils. Also the vertical movements due to compression of the soil
should be within tolerable limit for the structure. The foundations in accordance with the
recommendations herein will satisfy these criteria.

4.1 FOUNDATION DESIGN CRITERIA

The maximum permissible total settlement and differential for the foundation settlement is governed
by the technical requirements of the structure and is usually specified by the user.

4.2 BEARING CAPACITY OF SHALLOW FOUNDATION

Bearing capacity analysis for shallow foundations has been done in accordance with IS: 6403-1981. The
following equation has been used for the analysis.
qnet safe= 1/F(CNcScDc + p(Nq-1)SqDq+ 0.5B ɤN ɤS ɤD ɤRw)

 CHAPTER – 5
GENERAL SITECONDITIONS

5.1 GENERALDESCRIPTION
The boring has been done as per the approved layout plan. The sub-soil formation has been
investigated by sinking 10 nos. of boreholes explored up to a suitable depth.
5.2 GENERALGEOLOGY
There are three well-defined seasons in region. The cold-weather season, from November to February,
is the most pleasant part of the year. Lowest temperature in Jharkhand lies between -5°C to 0°C. High
temperatures in December usually rise from about 50 °F (10 °C) into the low 70s F (low 20s C) daily.
The hot-weather season lasts from March to mid-June. May, the hottest month, is characterized by
daily high temperatures in the upper 90s F (about 37 °C) and low temperatures in the mid-70s F (mid-
20s C). Maximum rainfall takes place during the months from July to September that accounts for
more than 90% of total rainfall in the state.

5.3 SUB-SURFACE CONDITIONS

The field investigation data and the results of laboratory tests conducted on the samples collected
from the bore holes in general reveal similar stratification.
The detailed soil profile and various soil layers have been provided in the soil profile attached. The soil
strata are Sandy to very stiff to the depth explored.
The Bore logs in the annexure present the detailed Stratigraphy, cross sections and nature of soil at the
borehole locations.
5.4 GROUND WATERCONDITIONS
During the current subsurface exploration ground water was found at different depth of exploration in
the site. It should be noted that these observations reflect groundwater levels at the time of the field
investigation and actual groundwater levels may fluctuate significantly in response to seasonal effects,
regional rainfall, and other factors not observed during this investigation. There may be regional or
perched water tables at greater depth. However, for the design purposes the ground water level has
been considered at footing level as the ground water level may rise in peak rainy season/ due to
unforeseen reasons.

5.5 REGIONALSEISMICITY
The intensity of an earthquake at a place is a measure of the strength of shaking during the
earthquake, and is indicated by a number according to the modified Mercalli Scale or M.S.K. Scale of
seismic intensities
The Zone factors ‘Z’ for various Seismic zones as per IS: 1893 (P-1)-2016 is as follows:

Seismic Zone II III IV V

Seismic Intensity LOW MODERATE SEVERE VERY SEVERE
Z 0.10 0.16 0.24 0.36
The area falls under Zone-III as classified by BMPTC, Indicating Severe Damage Risk Zone.
5.6 LIQUEFACTION
Liquefaction is a state in saturated cohesion less soil wherein the effective shear strength is reduced to
negligible value for all engineering purpose due to pore pressure caused by vibrations during an
earthquake when they approach the total confining pressure. In this condition the soil tends to behave
like a fluid mass.
Typically, cyclic loading of saturated soils leads to the buildup of excess pore-water pressure as a result
of soil particles being rearranged with a tendency toward denser packing. Under undrained conditions
(such as during earthquake shaking), loads are transferred from the soil skeleton to the pore-water
with consequent reduction in the soils’ shear strength.
Liquefaction-induced ground settlement and lateral spreading have been the primary cause for
extensive damage to aboveground structures, foundations and pipelines during many earthquakes.
 CHAPTER – 6
SOIL PROFILE & RECOMMENDATION
From the exploratory bore holes at the site it is observed that sub soil formation at this site consists of
cohesive soil at surface layer below. Details of the formations along with the “N” values are shown in
the field bore log data sheets.
Since the sub soil formation below the founding level consists of decomposed rock product Bearing
Capacity has been computed based on N value and in guidance with figure-1 and table-1 of IS: 6403-
1981. However, based on calculation the following bearing capacities for Square & Raft Foundation are
recommended.

 CHAPTER-7
SAMPLE CALCULATION OF BEARING CAPACITY OF SHALLOW FOUNDATION

The determination of the net safe bearing capacity, qns, is done first on the basis of the shear
failure criterion after dividing the value of the net ultimate bearing capacity qnf, calculated as
described below, by a suitable factor of safety. The net soil pressure s, for a given permissible
settlement is then calculated as explained in the next section. The lower of the two values, qns and
q s, thus determined is taken as the allowable bearing capacity of the soil.

33. Shear Failure Criterion. The net ultimate bearing capacity qnf (t/m2) of a shallow foundation of breadth
B (m) and depth D (m) is given as per IS: 6403-1981 (Sec.5.1.2) by the following equation:

qnf = c Nc sc dc Ic + q (Nq - 1) sq dq Iq + 0.5  B N s d I w

Where c = cohesion (t/m2)
q = effective surcharge (t/m 2)
 = unit weight of subsoil (t/m 3)
Nc, N , Nq = bearing capacity factors, which are functions of Ø the angle of internal friction of the soil
sc, sq, s= shape factors
dc, dq ,d  = depth factors related to cohesion, surcharge and density of subsoil respectively
Ic, Iq, I = inclination factors
w = water table factor (= 0.5 to 1.0) depending on the depth, Dw of water table- vide Table below.

The bearing capacity factors (N’s) are functions of  the angle of internal friction of the soil. Their values are
found for general shear failure by referring to standard tables. If subsoil conditions are such as to lead to local
shear failure, the values of these factors are found for a reduced value of angle of internal friction (’) given by
the equation: tan ’ = 0.67 tan  The value of cohesion is also reduced to c’ = 0.67 c.

The values of the other factors for usual conditions are as tabulated below:

In the present case, the representative values of cohesion © and angle of internal friction () of the
soil may be obtained from the soil data given earlier.
6.1 OPEN FOUNDATION
For satisfactory performance of a foundation, the following criteria must be satisfied:
(i) The foundation must not fail in shear.
(ii) The foundation must not settle by an amount more than the permissible settlement.

6.1.1 The allowable bearing capacity shall be taken as either of the following, whichever is less:
a) Net ultimate bearing capacity as obtained divided by suitable factor of safety, that is, net safe
bearing capacity.
6.1.2 The net soil pressure that can be imposed on the base without the settlement exceeding the
permissible values as given in IS: 1904-1978* to be determined for each structure of type of Soil, that
is, safe bearing pressure.
Types of soil formations are specified in IS: 1904-1978. The methods for calculations of settlements for
assumed pressure from standard penetration resistance are specified in IS : 8009 (Part I)- 1976; by
calculating the settlements for two or three probable soil pressure and interpolating , the net soil
pressure for permissible settlement may be estimated.
ALLOWABLE BEARING PRESSURE OF OPEN FOUNDATIONS FROM SHEAR FAILURE METHOD AS PER
IS: 6403-1981:
IS Code (IS: 6403-1981), (Sec.5.1.2) recommends a bearing capacity equation which is similar in nature
to those given by Meyerhof and Brinch Hansen. The net ultimate bearing capacity of a shallow
foundation of breadth B (m) is given as per the IS code by the equation:
Qnf=cNc. Sc .dc.ic +q(Nq-1).sq.dq.iq + ½.B.γ.Nγ.sγ.dγ.iγ.W’
The net safe bearing capacity, qns = (qnf/factor of safety)
Where c= cohesion (t/m2)
q= effective surcharge at the base level of foundation (t/m 2)

γw= Unit weight of subsoil (t/m2)

B=breadth of footing: L= length of footing
ɸ=angle of internal friction of soil
Df=depth of foundation
Nc, Nq, Nγ=Bearing capacity factors given in relevant tables for general shear failure.
For obtaining Nc’, Nq’, Nγ’ corresponding to local shear failure a reduced value of ɸ’=tan-1(0.67 Tan ɸ)
and corresponding values are taken for
Nc, Nq,Nγ.
Sc, Sq, Sγ=Shape Factors
dc, dq, dγ=depth factors
ic, iq, iγ=inclination factors
W’ water table factor (=0.5 for water table at the footing level & 1.0 for water table at depth B below
the footing, to be obtained by linear interpolation).The values of the other factors are as tabulated
below:
Shape factor Sq./circ. Rect. Strip dc=1+0.2(Df/B)(Nφ)0.5
Sc 1.3 1+0.2B/L 1.0 dq=dγ=1φ<10
Sq 1.2 1+0.2B/L 1.0 dq=dγ=1+0.1(Nφ)0.5 for φ>10
Sγ 0.8/0.6 1-0.4B/L 1.0 Ic=iq=iγ=1.0 for vertical loading

The net safe bearing capacity values calculated as above have to be checked for settlement in order to
arrive at the net allowable bearing capacity values.
2 Calculation of allowable bearing capacity based on settlement criterion
The net soil pressure, qs ( t/m2 ) for a permissible settlement of 25 mm is given by Teng’s formula:
qs = 3.5 [N’’ – 3] [(B + 0.3)/ 2 B] 2 w’ Fd t/m2
Where N’’ = corrected value of N from SPT

Fd = [1 + D/B] < or = 2

D, B and w’ are as defined before.

For a permissible settlement of S mm, the allowable bearing capacity

q’s = S qs /25

The corrected SPT N” values used in the calculations based on the above formula for different depths
below G.L May be found from the recorded data.
The N” value used in any case is to be for the influence zone below the footing, which depends on its width.
A sample of calculation of the allowable soil pressure for the chosen size and depth of footing and for the
permissible settlement is given in Table B in the next section.

LIMITATION
This report presents recommendations pertaining to the proposed structures as represented to
KUMAR CONSULTING ENGINEERS (KCE), as described herein. The findings and recommendations
presented in this report are based upon soil conditions observed the available subsurface explorations,
interpolation of the soil conditions between test pits, and extrapolation of these conditions
throughout the proposed site area. They are further based on the assumption that the subsurface
conditions do not deviate appreciably from those reported and those assumed. However, the
possibility of different conditions cannot be discounted. In the event that changes in design loads or
structural characteristics described in this report are made, KCE should be retained to review our
design recommendations and their applicability to the revised design plans. In this way, any required
supplemental recommendations can be made in a timely manner.
This report has been prepared for the specific project, purpose, and customer stated in the report; the
report may not be adequate for other uses. The use of the recommendations of this report for other
projects or purposes or by other parties is not authorized.
Although KCE has endeavored to characterize the surface and subsurface conditions at the site, KCE is
not as able to assess potential construction difficulties as is a contractor specializing in the work to be
performed. Consequently, the Contractor is responsible, and KCE is not, for final evaluation of
potential construction difficulties.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the care and skill generally exercised at the present
time by reputable professionals in the field of geotechnical engineering, under similar circumstances,
for projects in the project locality. No other warranty, either expressed or implied, is made as to the
professional advice presented herein.
