FATULLAH, DIST.-NARAYANGANJ. The Sub soil Investigation Programme Includes Necessary Field and
Laboratory tests. TANI SOIL & ENGINEERING FOUNDATION Consultants was entrusted with
the investigation works and all the factual information together with the comments and the
recommendations have been included in this report. The purpose of investigation is for the safe and
economic design for the proposed foundation of the structure at the site.

2.0 SCOPE OF WORK

The main scope of this investigation works were:

a. Execution of exploratory Boring, recording of sub-soil stratification and position


of Ground Water Table.

b. Execution of standard penetration test (SPT) at an interval of 5 ft. depth with


the collection of disturbed soil samples up to the final depth exploration of each
boring.

c. Recording the level of Ground Water in each Boring after completion of field
work.

d. Execution of laboratory tests on soil samples to determine the physical and


mechanical characteristics.

e. Presentation of final report with all works including detailed description of soil
stratification and bearing capacity as well as skin friction values of sub-soil.
Page 2

3.0 FIELD WORKS


The field investigation programme includes execution of 24 Boring extending to
the maximum Depth of 60ft. The above boring works have been done as per
direction of the owner. The details of the field investigation programme are
provided in the following sub-headings.

a. Exploratory Boring
Drilling was executed by the method of wash boring. A hole was started by
driving vertically a 4 inches dia steel casing into the ground to some depth and
than the formation inside the casing was broken up by the repeated drops of a
chopping bit attach to the lower end of the drilling pipe. The upper end of the
same was fitted to swivel head through which water was forced at high pressure
pipe. Forced water emerges at high velocity through the pores of the chopping
bit and returns to the surface, carrying with it the broken-up soils. In this way
drilling is advanced up to a level of 6 inches above the depth, where SPT has to
be executed.

b. Standard Penetration Test


Standard Penetration Tests have been executed in all the bore holes at the 5ft.
interval of depth upto the final depth of boring. In this test, a split spoon
sampler of 2" outer dia and 13/8" inner dia, is made to penetrate 18 inches into
the soil by the drops of hammer weighing 140 Lbs falling freely from a height of
30 inches. Number of blows of hammer required for penetration of each 6 inches
length of the sampler are recorded. The number of blows for last 12 inches
penetration of the total 18 inches in known as the penetration value (N Value)
as specified by ASTM.
Page 3

c. EXTRACTION OF SOIL SAMPLE


Disturbed soil samples were collected at 5 ft interval and at every change of soil
strata by using the split spoon sampler. These soil sample were studied visually
and the soil classification were done to prepare strata chart of soils upto the
explored depth.

4.0 LABORATORY WORKS :


The following soil tests have been performed in the laboratory for proper evaluation of

soil parameters. These are following:

a. Grain size analysis ........................................ 28 Nos.

b. Specific gravity ......................................... 16 Nos.

c. Natural moisture content .............................. 16 Nos.

d. Atterberg limit .......................................... 16 Nos.

e. Unit weight (wet & dry) ................................ 16 Nos.

f. Direct shear ................................. 02 Nos.

g. Consolidation .......................................... 02 Nos.

5.0 DESCRIPTION OF SOIL COMPOSITION, ALLOWABLE SOIL PRESSURE ETC.

a. The following terms are used in this report for description of soil composition;

Trace : 1 to 10% Little : 11 to 20%


Some : 20 to 35% Sandy : 35 to 50% sand
Clayey : 35 to 50% clay Silty : 35 to 50% silt
Page 4

b. On the basis of N-Values the relative density/consistency of soil formation may


be said to vary as, very loose, medium, dense, and very dense for non-cohesive
soil and very soft, soft, medium stiff, very stiff and hard for cohesive soil
(K.Tarzaghi and R.B Peck).

c. Based on N-values other very useful soil parameters may be obtained from the
correlation charts given by different research workers. Two such useful
correlations for cohesive and non-cohesive soils after Prof. K. Terzaghi are given
below:

8.0 EVALUATION OF BEARING CAPACITY

8.1 Shallow Foundation

a. Bearing Capacities of the shallow foundation from SPT:


The bearing capacities of the shallow foundation particularly for top layer of cohesive
soil may be estimated from the SPT values, as suggested by Terzaghi, according to
following. Table-1

TABLE No-1: BEARING CAPACITIES OF THE SHALLOW FOUNDATION, TSF


(F.S=3.0)
SPT range Consistency Allowable bearing Capacity
00-02 Very soft 0.000-0.225 0.00-0.30
02-04 Soft 0.225-0.45 0.30-0.60
04-08 Medium Stiff 0.45-0.90 0.60-1.20
08-15 Stiff 0.90-1.80 1.20-2.40
15-30 Very Stiff 1.80-3.60 2.40-4.80
>30 Hard >3.60 >4.80

b. Shallow foundation from soil parameters:


The bearing capacities of the shallow foundation may more appropriately be
determined from the parameters of soil such as the values of cohesion and the angle of
internal friction as obtained from the performance of laboratory tests. These have been
done considering the general equations of the bearing capacity of the foundation as
suggested by Terzaghi. The evaluated values are provided in the following Table-2

9.0 CONCLUSIONS

Based on the above analysis and discussions, the following conclusions may be
drawn regarding the sub-soil formation of the project area.

a. The subsoil formation of the project site has been found more or less regular in
between the boreholes.

b. From bore log the top soil of the 24 bore shown the same property up to depth

of (Ref: Bore logs)

c. The subsequent deep layers non cohesive soils of (Ref: Bore logs)

SAND PILE
Deep Foundation for 8” dia sand pile
The 8" dia sand Pile at the interval of every 02 ft may be used for 25’ length pile
from the existing ground surface with the specification.

DEEP FOUNDATION:
8" 8" Pre-Cast RCC Pile
The 8" 8" Pre-Cast RCC Pile may be used after excavation of 5 ft earth
from existing ground surface with the specification and capacity as:-
- Length of 8" 8" Pre-Cast RCC Pile =25ft
- Allowable bearing capacity =17.00, ton/pile.
Note:
a) 1 Ton = 2000 Ibs, 1 TSF =100 Kpa, EGL = Existing Ground Level.
b) The Foundation Engineer or the Designer may select other alternative type, on the base of depth
as well as the Bearing Capacity of the foundation according to his requirement, in the light of
test result provided in this report.
