1. INTRODUCTION
A subsurface soil investigation was conducted by drilling 2 test holes scheduled to be 20 meters from the natural
ground level. Test holes were conducted accordingly within the proposed area based on client specifications.
This report contains the discussion, evaluation, and recommendation intended for the design of the structural
foundation and components of the proposed Water Tank in Lagtang, Talisay City, Cebu. It is construed that the
recommendations stated herein are purely recommendatory based on universally accepted engineering procedures and
standards in testing and evaluation.

3. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVE
The subsurface soil investigation was conducted to obtain information on the subsurface conditions needed for the
design of the foundation component of the proposed structure. Samples obtained during the investigation were tested in
the laboratory for soil classification and determining the engineering characteristics of the on-site soil and rock. The
results of the field and laboratory tests are discussed and presented herein. Specifically, the soil investigation was
conducted to meet the following objectives.
4. FIELD PROCEDURE
4.1. DRILLING PROCEDURE
The boring was accomplished using a hydraulically operated, rotary drilling rig. The hole was advanced using the
rotary wash method. Standard Penetration Test (SPT) was carried out using a standard split-spoon sampler, mounted on
a drive rod of sufficient strength to prevent whipping from blows delivered by the 140lbs (63.5 kg) hammer free-falling
from a height of 30-in (76-cm). The value of N (penetration resistance) is obtained as the number of blows required to
drive the tube to the last 18-in (450-mm) of penetration distance.
After the sample and tube are brought to the surface and separated, the sample is removed from the tube and properly
preserved and sealed using a moisture-tight plastic bag for further testing in the laboratory.
Correlation of SPT data with other soil parameters has been developed for estimates of the stiffness of soil and is a
very useful supplementary classification as shown in the tables below:

Drilling through Hard Rocks and Soils
Coring which simultaneously advances the hole and obtains continuous samples is performed. The method consists
of grinding away an annular zone with a rotary diamond drill bit, leaving a cylindrical core that was captured by a core
barrel and removed from the ground. The cuttings are removed by a circulating drilling fluid/water. The core recovery,
which is the total sample length recovered from each core run divided by the run length is the RQD (Rock Quality
Designation), which is the percentage of core in pieces 100 mm or longer of the sample and is recorded.
4.2. LABORATORY TESTS

Selected soil samples were subjected to the following specific tests:
4.2.1. Soil Particle Size Analysis (ASTM D422, ASTM D1140)
The size and quantity of individual particles found in particular soil are indicative of the performance characteristics
of the soil. The percentage by weight of the material passing through each succession sieve is recorded.
4.2.2. The Atterberg Limits (ASTM D4318)
The liquid limit and the plastic limit tests define the upper and lower moisture content points at which a particular
soil ceases to perform as plastic. The use of this test is restricted to cohesive soils.
4.2.3. Fall Cone Method (BS 1377)
Alternative method to the Casagrande method for measuring the Liquid Limit of a soil sample. Furthermore, the
undrained shear strength for each one of those measured water content can be computed as proposed by Hansbo:[2]
The fall cone factor can vary between 0.5 and 1.33.
4.2.4. Moisture Content of Soils (ASTM D2216, ASTM D4959)
It is based on the weight of the water in the soil. This indicates the imperative behavior of different soil types at
various levels of moisture.
4.2.5. Standard Classification of Soils for Engineering Purposes (ASTMD 2487)

Based on the results of visual observations and prescribed laboratory tests, a soil is cataloged according to the basic
soil groups, assigned a group symbol(s) and name, and thereby classified. This standard classifies soils from any
geographic location into categories representing the results of prescribing laboratory tests to determine the particle-size
characteristics, the liquid limit, and the plasticity index.
The various groupings of the classification system have been devised to correlate in a general way with the
engineering behavior of soils.

4.2.6. Direct Sher Test (ASTM D 3080)
Relatively simple soil mechanics test run on cohesive or non-cohesive samples of undisturbed or remolded soil
materials. A shear box, or shear ring, contains the soil specimen and consists of two halves, stacked vertically. A direct
shear machine applies a predetermined vertical load (normal stress) to the soil specimen in the shear box assembly. The
applied normal stresses depend on the loads anticipated in the design. The bottom half of the shear box is held in place
while the shear machine applies a controlled horizontal force to move the upper half in one direction. The deformation
and force applied to the sample are measured and recorded until there is a shear failure.
Shioi and Fukui angle of internal friction value should be used if it is lesser than the Direct Shear Test (ASTM D
3080) is observed.
Table 3: Angle of Internal Friction
11 | P a g e
It should be noted that no UCT was performed for rock samples that did not pass the requirement as a specimen, e.g
not an intact sample to fill the special dimensioning.
Further, rock properties are identified through the following measures.
TOTAL CORE RECOVERY (TCR)

TCR is the borehole core recovery percentage, defined as the quotient:
TCR = lsum of pieces/ltotal core run (100%)
Lsum of pieces = sum of the length of the core pieces

Ltotal core run = total length of the core run
ROCK QUALITY DESIGNATION (RQD)
RQD is an approximate measure of the degree of jointing or fracture in a rock mass, measured as the percentage of
the drill core in the length of 100mm or more. High-quality rock has an RQD of more than 75% while the low quality
of less than 50%. Whereas rock quality designation could have several definitions, a popular definition was developed
in 1964 by D. U. Deere wherein it is the borehole core recovery percentage incorporating only pieces of a solid core that
is longer than 100mm in length measured along the centerline of the core.
As such, pieces of a core that are not competent (hard and sound) should not be counted despite being 100MM in
length.
RQD is defined as the quotient:
TCR = lsum of 100/ltotal core run (100%)
Lsum of 100 = sum of the length of the core stick longer than 100mm measured along the centerline of the core
Ltotal core run = total length of the core run
From the RQD index, the rock mass can be classified as follows:
RQD Rock Mass

Quality
< 25% Very Poor
25%-50% Poor
50%-75% Fair
75%-90% Good
90%-100% Excellent

4.2.7. Soil Bearing Capacity Computation
The results of the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) and soil laboratory test results were used to compute the soil
bearing capacity and to generate the empirical values of unit weight, cohesion, and internal friction angle. The soil-
bearing capacity was computed using the Meyerhof, Hansen, and Vesic formula:
Where:
Qu - Ultimate soil-bearing capacity
c - Cohesion of soils
𝐲𝐞 - The unit weight of soil at the base of the footing
𝐲𝐪 - The unit weight of overburden
D - Depth of footing
B - Base of footing

4.3. GEOLOGIC SETTING AND SEISMICITY
The project lies within Lagtang, Talisay City, and is bounded by a seismic generator which is to be considered in
the structural design of the proposed new structure. The nearest active fault trace on the said location is the Cebu Central
Fault about 4.1 kilometers away which can generate a 7.0 magnitude earthquake, mapped by PHIVOLCS in 2016.

For structural design considerations, the seismic parameters are as follows:
Zone Factor = 0.4
Type of Soil = SD
Magnitude of Earthquake = 7.0
Distance to the nearest fault = 4.1 km
Near Source Factor (Na=1.2; Nv=1.6)
Seismic Coefficients (Ca=0.526; Cv=1.024)

4.4.1. GROUND WATER TABLE
The groundwater table encounters a 6-meter depth and 8 meters in both borehole 1 and borehole 2 respectively
4.4.2. LIQUEFACTION
Liquefaction is defined as the transformation of granular soil from a solid state into a liquid state. Soils most
susceptible to liquefaction are commonly associated with saturated sandy and silty soils having low plasticity and
density. Liquefaction assessment is carried out on the areas having silty soil to a sand formation with shallow depth of
water table and the relative loose density of (N<15). The assessment is evaluated by calculating the Cyclic Stress Ratio
(CSR) induced by an earthquake and the Cyclic Resistance Ratio (CRR) of the soil formation using the factor of safety
approach. For the given depth of the soil in each borehole, the CRR is then divided by the CSR to determine the ratio
of these two variables. A Liquefaction Resistance Factor (FL) value less than 1 signifies that the depth considered is
susceptible to soil liquefaction. The assessment would also determine the probable depth and location of liquefaction
when the areas are subjected to a ground motion acceleration equivalent to 0.4g or the equivalent ground acceleration
derived from the maximum design earthquake (MDE) in 100 years with a given distance, in a kilometer, to the nearest
fault.
The Liquefaction Potential Index (LPI) is estimated using Boulanger and Idriss (2014), Iwasaki et al. (1982), and
Luna and Frost (1998).

5. OBSERVATION
The proposed Structure in Lagtang, Talisay City, Cebu was there no significant construction at the time of the test
which can affect soil consolidation. The topography of the area is relatively flat within the immediate vicinity of the
proposed project site.
From the test conducted, the geologic profile in the area is described as sedimentary soils. It is predominantly
underlain with well graded sand with gravel; the soil is classified as shown in the borehole log detail with no plasticity.

6. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

6.1. Structural Foundations
The foundation level shall be lowered to allow for an increase in foundation resistance.
Economic considerations may allow the use of shallow foundations along the area. The foundation level shall be
located between 2.00 below depth depending on the required loading conditions noting the variability in material
composition and resistance of the upper influencing soil materials, otherwise the structural engineer (engineer on
records) may use spread footing with data showing soil bearing capacity in tables 6 to 15.
. The Foundation level shall be lowered to allow for an increase in foundation resistance. The foundation may consist
of spread footings or raft foundations.
21 | P a g e
6.2. Bearing Capacity of Soil on Shallow Locations
The general equation is usually Meyerhof, Hansen, and Vesic bearing capacity theory. The shape factors are adopted
from AASHTO (1996).
The correlation of values, normally based on SPT resistance was estimated based on different authors for
determining the effect of pore pressure, overburden pressure, and shear strength resistance of the underlying soil
materials. The buoyancy effect due to the presence of groundwater at shallow levels should be considered in the design
of the foundation.
The N-value, which is used to estimate the geotechnical properties of the foundation material was not generated
along with the sampling depth that indicates coring, because the foundation materials could not be penetrated through
SPT. Hence, estimating rock-bearing strength was done by assuming an N-value of 50, which indicates refusal – a state
where the soil is impenetrable and SPT could no longer be advanced, for each sampling depth. With this assumption,
the very poor rock is considered very hard soil, and the soil-bearing capacity computation for the shallow foundation
was generated.
The recommended allowable bearing capacity for the general condition is intended to provide a sufficient margin
of safety concerning bearing failures and deformation/settlement.
