Geotechnical Investigation Report for Cable Feeder Works

Geotechnical Investigation Report
for
Cable Feeder Works for 220kV & 66kV Transmission

Development Phase 2
near Hidd BSP Substation
Kingdom of Bahrain
PREAMBLE
The following notes should be read in conjunction with the report.
GENERAL: There may be variation in stratification and characteristics of soil from those
observed at the borehole locations.
GROUND WATER: The ground water table levels indicated on the boring logs are those
appertaining to the time of the investigation. It is to be noted that ground water levels are
subject to variations by changes in local drainage and or pumping conditions, tidal fluctuations
and seasonal variations. In areas of close proximity to sea, the highest ground water level
may be taken as that corresponding to the highest tide level.
ROUTINE SAMPLING: Disturbed samples of soil are taken from standard 50mm diameter
split barrel sampler and placed in plastic bags.
Unless otherwise stated the disturbed soil samples may not be at their natural moisture
content.
STANDARD PENETRATION TEST: The standard penetration test results presented on the
boring logs have been obtained using SPT device conforming to both, British as well as
American Standards.

1.1 INTRODUCTION: Upon the instruction from M/S. Mohammed Al Ojaimi Contracting
Company., in their capacity as contractor, a site investigation has been carried out at the site
for Cable Feeder Works for 220kV & 66kV Transmission Development Phase 2 near Hidd
BSP Substation, Kingdom of Bahrain.
1.1.1 OBJECT OF INVESTIGATION: The main object of the investigation was to determine
subsurface conditions at the site by determining the physical properties of the soil, to
determine the bearing capacity at suitable elevation, to observe the level of water table, to
note the depth of rock formation, if any, as well as to recommend the type of foundation to be
used.
1.1.2 SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The site is situated in Hidd. The location of the
site is shown on the site plan in Appendix A2.
1.2 GEOLOGY OF BAHRAIN: The main Island of Bahrain essentially consists of partially
eroded dome of sedimentary deposits, which are of Eocene age and which are flanked by
formations of Pleistocene and Holocene.
HALOCENE: Gravels, silts, clays, aeolinatine, playa, deposits, cerithiid limestone etc.
PLEISTOCENE: Consolidated superficial deposits including Ra’s Al Aqr formation.
MIOCENE: Jabal cap formation.
GROUP FORMATION
EOCENE DAMMAM: Jabal Hisai Carbonate. West Riffa Flint, Al Buhayr Carbonate.
Deil’ Rafah Carbonate
Forminiferal Carbonate
RUS: Hafirah Carongate, Awali Carbonate. Bedding traces.
1.3 SELECTION OF TEST LOCATION: Location of boreholes was indicated by the consultant
and the same are shown in Appendix A3.
1
1.4 METHOD OF INVESTIGATION:
1.4.1 BORING/ DRILLING: We explored subsurface soil conditions by drilling two boreholes
each of 7.0 m deep. Locations are shown on the location plan in Appendix A3. The location
and depth of the drilling were indicated by the client. We drilled the boreholes using our Rock
Drill TRD-80 drilling rig. The boreholes were advanced by mud rotary drilling. Bentonite drilling
mud was circulated to remove cuttings and to maintain the borehole stability as well as to cool
and lubricate the tools. Boring was performed using a tricone roller bit on string of 45 mm
diameter AW rods.
1.4.2 SAMPLING INTERVAL: Soil samples were obtained at approximate intervals of 0.5 m
on soil to the depth of up to 3 m and 1 m interval thereafter.
1.4.3 SAMPLING PROCEDURE: The soil was sampled by driving a standard 50 mm diameter
split-barrel sampler with a 64 kg hammer dropped from a height of 0.76 m. The procedure was
generally in accordance with the standard penetration test (SPT) procedures specified in B.S.
5930. Rock samples were obtained by core drilling and total core recovery (TCR) and rock
quality designation (RQD) was noted for general assessment of rock quality.
1.4.4 TRIAL PITS: We investigated subsurface soil conditions by excavating two numbers of
trial pits to the depth of bedrock, at the location shown on the location plan Appendix A3. The
Trial pit log is enclosed in Appendix: A6.
1.4.5 SAMPLE HANDLING: After recovery, each sample was removed from the split sampler
and visually examined and classified. Representative portions of soil samples were then
sealed, packed and transported to our laboratory for further examination and testing.
1.4.6 BORE LOGS: A record of field observations were maintained in the form of field logs,
describing the visual identification of the subsurface materials encountered at different
horizons and also other pertinent field data. These logs were later edited to incorporate
information obtained from laboratory examination and testing. The final bore logs thus
developed are presented in Appendix A1. Symbols and terms appearing on the bore logs are
described in Appendix A4 & A5.
The SPT value, presented on the bore logs, is the number of blows required to drive 50 mm
diameter split-barrel for each 0.15 m of the 0.45 m sampling length. The ‘N’ value was taken,
as the number of blows required to drive the sampler for the last 0.30 m of the 0.45 m sampling
2
length. The blows required for the first 0.15 m penetration may not be representative of the in-
situ densities due to the possible presence of loose materials or cuttings from the drilling
operation. Where very dense soil was encountered, the actual penetration for 50 blows was
noted on the bore logs after initial 0.15 m seating of the sampler. Where the sampler could not
penetrate the initial 0.15 m, we have noted on the boring logs the actual sampler penetration.
1.4.7 WATER LEVEL MEASUREMENT: We measured the water level during both high tide
and low tide in the boreholes after leaving the borehole open for at least 24 hours after
completion of drilling operation.
1.4.9 LABORATORY TESTING: Laboratory tests relevant to the objectives of the

investigation were conducted on the selected representative samples. The following tests
were performed in accordance with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and
British Standards (B.S.).
1. Particle size distribution according to BS 1377-2:1990, Standard Test Method for

“Determination of Particle Size Distribution”.
2. Liquid limit according to BS 1377-2:1990, “Determination of Liquid Limit”.
3. Plastic limit according to BS 1377-2:1990, “Determination of Plastic Limit”.
4. Sulphate content according to BS 1377-3:1990, Standard Test Method for “Determination
of Sulphate Content of the Soil”.
5. Chloride content according to BS 1377-3:1990, Standard Test Method for “Determination
of Chloride Content”.
6. pH value according to BS 1377-3:1990, Standard Test Method for “Determination of pH
value”.
7. Unconfined compressive strength according to ASTM 2938-1979 Standard Test Method
for “Unconfined Compressive Strength of Intact Rock Samples”.

2.1 DISCUSSION ON OBSERVATIONS & FIELDS TEST RESULTS

Visual observation and standard penetration test (SPT) were carried out at site for making
approximate classification of soil types encountered including assessing the relative
denseness of strata. The data thus collected was further augmented by the detailed laboratory
test results to identify the subsoil stratification. The depths indicated in our bore logs were
measured from the ground level at the borehole location.

Several blows of geologic hammer to break specimen.

Extremely Strong >250 More than one blow geologic hammer required to break specimen.
Very Strong 100 - 250 Hand held specimen can be broken with single blow of hammer.
Strong 50 - 100 Indentation of 5mm with sharp end of pick.
Medium Strong 25 - 50 Too hard to cut by hand into a compression test specimen.
Weak 5 - 25 Materials crumbles under firm blows with sharp end of a geologic pick.
Very Weak 1-5 Brittle or tough, may be broken by hand with difficulty.
Extremely Weak 0.6 - 1 May be broken by hand with difficulty.
RELATIONSHIP OF RQD AND ROCK QUALITY (2) WEATHERING
RQD, Rock Quality Fresh -Rock fresh with few joints and may show slight staining
Rock Quality Designation < (%) Slightly -Significant portions of rock show discoloration and weathering
effects and show significant loss of strength compared with
Very Poor………………. 0 - 25 fresh rock.
Poor……………………. 25 - 50
Fair……………………… 50 - 75 Moderately -Rock shows severe loss of strength and can be excavated with
Good…………………… 75 - 90 geologist's pick.
Excellent……………….. 90 - 100
Highly -Mass effectively reduced to soil with only fragments of strong
rock remaining.
RQD is the percentage ratio of the total length
of intact core specimen 4 in or longer to the
total length of core run.
