Subject: Geotechnical Investigation Report for Proposed Bridge at Ch: 2+100 Under PMGSY,
Package No–PMGSY-III/13 District Shahdol (Rashmohni To Badaudi)
Dear Sir,
As per the request received for the soil investigation work, the SBC recommendation is as
under: -
1. From stratification encountered during soil investigation trial pit log and SPT performed in
proposed construction area, collected rock samples, stratification of based on Trial Pit log are
tabulated below: -
Layer – I Brownish to Yellowish, clayey silty sand with gravels
Bore Hole Layer -I Layer -II Northing Easting Total Depth Remark
Prime Consideration is laid that Foundations should not fail in shear. Factor of safety of 3 is
considered against shear failure.
Yellowish Clayey
1 1.50 24
Silty Sand
RASHMOHNI TO BADAUDI At Ch:
2+100 BH 1 & 2,3 Highly weathered
medium to fine
2 3.00 40
grained
Sandstone/shale
Note: Safe Bearing Capacity was calculated as per IS 6403 & IS 12070
As per annexure J (Clause 5.3.4.2) G, National Building code, Bhopal lies in earthquake Zone
II. The structural design should be as per the provision.
Suitable dewatering system should be adopted for placing concrete in dry condition.
Drainage arrangement for release of pore water pressure should be made below the
foundation.
The recommendation is based on the field investigation and the laboratory test results of
the samples collected from the site location and our experience in this regard. If the actual
sub soil conduction during excavation for the foundations differ from that has been
reported, a reference should be made to us for suggestions.
During excavation of foundation, proper precaution should be taken to ensure that stability
of entire area is maintained /monitored properly.
Should there be any query regarding the recommendation, it is requested to contact Mr.
Pushpendra Chouhan on 8600678891 for clarification.
Thanking you and assuring you of our best services at all times.
