Summary of Geo-technical Activities

Geotechnical investigation for determining soil parameters to supplement

the design shall be carried out in two stages
(i) Feasibility stage:
 Investigation for feasibility stage includes reconnaissance visits and sub-
soil investigations at representative locations for bridges along the existing
alignment.
 Carry out preliminary design of foundations to estimate the cost
associated with these structures
(ii) Detail Design stage:
 Investigation for detail design stage includes conduction of sub-soil
investigations for flyovers, rail overpass, high embankments, soft soil
locations and bridges along the new alignment.
 Carry out Detail design of foundation of bridges, flyovers, rail-overpasses,
embankments and provide appropriate construction sequence and
monitoring plan to be carried out during the implementation stage.
