2) Carryout standard penetration test at regular interval alternate to undisturb sampling
3) Collecting disturbed soil samples at regular interval as per the stratification of

soil,recording depth at which soil changes.
4) Collecting undisturbed samples (UDS) at regular interval alternate to SP Test or

continuous UD samples at regular interval if subsoil is cohesive
[2.1] Borehole Drilling :
Drilling of 150 mm dia borehole was carried out by shell and Auger/Rotary drilling
method above water table. Water was added while drilling but stopped at enough height
above the test level to avoid disturbance
Drilling below water table was made by percussion drilling method. Casing is required to be
lowered if holes do not retain its shape. Care is taken to maintain ground water table during
drilling and particularly before testing or sampling levels.In no case casing is allowed to
advance below the bottom of borehole. Chiselling is carried out if required while drilling.
The Location of borehole was decided with due consideration of Client/Consultant of the
project
Job no. 101/05/2018 3

(2.2) Collection of Samples:
Undisturbed soil samples in 38mm Ø shelby tubes were collected in the thin walled
sampling tubes in accordance with IS:2132-1981at regular interval for finding shear
parameters, field density, moisture content etc. of soil.The sampling tube was connected to
the rod by jarring link in case of 38mm Ø tubes.’A’ drill rods were connected by suitable
adaptor with ball check value. Before lowering the sampler ,the borehole was cleaned
properly and sampling tubes were lightly oiled from inner and outer side.
Sampling tube was pushed into the borehole by pressure hammering as per the soil stiffness.
The sampling tubes were waxed immediately after removal.
In case of medium to coarse grained ,non-cohesive sand samples,where sampling is
unsuccessful,Standard Penetration Tests was carried out after cleaning the borehole.
However, disturbed soil samples from shell or split spoon samplers were also collected in
polythene bags with proper levels during drilling for finding index properties of the soil.
[ 2.3 ] Standard Penetration Test :

The standard penetration tests were performed in accordance with IS:2131:1981 using the
standard split spoon sampler & 63.5Kg hammer at the desired intervals. Before testing ,the
borehole was cleaned properly and Split spoon sampler was centrally seated in the
borehole.In case of SPT to be conducted below water table,care was taken to keep casing
position above the borehole depth..The water level in borehole is maintained above or at
least at the water table.
A standard hammer of 63.5 kg is dropped from a height of 75 cms. And the no. of
blows for penetration of sampler for 0-15,15-30 and 30-45 cms were noted in table no.
3.Standard penetration test value Ns is considered for last 30 cm penetration,For non
plastic silts and fine sands Ns value is corrected for effective overburden pressure and
dilatancy.Correction is applied for tests conducted below water table.

[ 3 ] LABORATORY WORK
Following laboratory tests were carried out on the samples collected from the site.
1. Water content on selected samples from SPT
2. Field density,Moisture content and dry density of undisturbed samples.
3. Grain size Analysis of SPT samples,.UD samples and disturbed samples
covering each soil strata.
4. Atterberg’s Limit for samples
5. Specific gravity Test for samples as per 3.
6. Shrinkage Limit / Free Swell / Differential Swell test for selected samples of
expansive soil
7. Test for shear properties of selected samples.
8. Unconfined compressive Strength on saturated cohesive soil
9. Triaxial Shear test under UU/CU condition with or without pore pressure
measurement as per in situ conditions.Normally soft cohesive saturated samples will be
consolidated at average overburden pressure.
The common practice adopted in the field and laboratory testing by & large are as
per I S code indicated . Results of the laboratory tests performed on various soil samples
are presented in the form of table at the end of report.
[ 4 .0] PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:-
The moisture cans collected from SPT samplers from the field are weighed and placed in
oven for drying to determine natural moisture content(NMC). Results are tabulated in
table-3 UDS are extracted using screw type extractor and samples were prepared as per the
required size of the test. Weight and volume of the samples were noted before extracting
from tubes. Average bulk density is calculated and samples were placed in oven to get the
field moisture content for computing the dry density.Results are tabulated in table 4
Specific gravity with specific gravity bottle/pycnometer is calculated as per IS
2720.Results were tabulated in table4.Saturation of sample in % is also calculated which is a
useful data for deciding the condition of triaxial shear test.
Grain size analysis is made byISsievesofsizes4.75mm,2.00mm,1.00mm,0.425mm,0.25mm

and 0.075mm. For coarse grained soil a graph of partical size v/s cumulative % finer is
plotted.For fine grained soil wet analysis is made on plummet balance.Results are tabulated
in table 5. Liquid limit and Plastic Limit tests are carried out with distilled water as per IS
2720 part– 5.The samples are tested at a minimum of 24 hours after the addition of water.
Liquid limit is done on casagrande standards with occasional checking by Cone penetration
method.
The soil samples showing high plasticity were checked for swelling and shrinkage.
Firstly for rough estimate,free swell test is carried out as per IS 2720 part – 40.Shrinkage limit
test is carried out as per IS 2720 part 6
Job no. 101/05/2018 5

[5.0] SHEAR PROPERTIES:-
Shear tests were carried out by three methods.
1) Unconfined compressive strength as per IS 2720 part-10 for the saturated plastic soil
2) Triaxial shear test is tobe carried out on samples of size 38mm dia and 76 mm in
height on motorized 30 speed load frame .The confining pressure б3 is applied to the cell
by oil water constant pressure system. The tests are carried out for the three conditions
a) Unconsolidated Undrained (UU) test without pore water pressure measurement as per
IS 2720 part 1
b) Consolidated Undrained (CU) test without pore water pressure measurement as per
IS 2720 part 11
The condition decided on type of sample and water table condition or designers
specifications.
c) Direct/box shear test on noncohesive medium to coarse sandy soil as per IS 2720 part
13.
The graph for triaxial shear test is plotted by modified method .

GL at the time of investigation. (May, 2018)
Job no. 101/05/2018 8

[8 ] CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION:
(8.1) The site for proposed soil investigation work at Bhangadh (Mingalpur) in general is
observed to consist of silty clay of medium plasticity up to 10.00m depth of termination.
Ground water table was observed in the borehole at depth 1.50 m to 2.50 m depth below
GL at the time of investigation. (May, 2018)
(8.2) The load carrying capacity of single bulb concrete under reamed pile of 0.30 m diameter
and 3.0 m depth below cut off level of 1.0 m depth below GL is recommended with load
carring capacity as t in compression and t in up lift condition. However it is advisable to
verify this load by pile load test as per IS 2911-Part 5.
( 8.3) The top soil is having high swelling potential and hence is not suitable to be used for
back / Plinth filling purpose.
(8.4) Chemical analysis of water sample shows very high chlorides and sulphates making it
unsuitable for concrete mixing and curing .It is also recommended to provide large cover
over reinforcement with anti corrosive paint and dense concrete.
(8.5) The value of CBR test in soaked condition shows as 4.7 to 5%.
(8.5) The results of the laboratory tests are incorporated in the form of table at the later part
of the report.
