1. INTRODUCTION:
This report deals with Geo-Technical Investigation for AAMRAPALI NAGAR PRN-II.
The work of conducting the detailed Geotechnical Investigation has been awarded to us who
includes investigation in field, laboratory testing of bulk samples collected from the site and
field and laboratory test result including their interpretation/ analysis, recommendations on the
properties of soils required for design of foundation and suggesting suitable type of foundation
and safe allowable bearing capacity for safe and strong foundation for various structures.
2. FIELD INVESTIGATION:
The field investigation work at the sites under consideration of this part of the report
was carried out, boreholes of diameter 150 mm, the boreholes were progressed by using power driven
rotary drilling machines. In disintegrated and hard rock strata boreholes were progressed using NX
size (75 mm diameter) double tube barrel with diamond bit. As the core recovery was from top the
rock drilling was done. Standard Penetration Tests were conducted at 1.50 meter interval up to the
depth as per the procedure laid in IS: 2131-1981 in all the bore holes whereas possible. For conducting
the test, the bottom of the borehole was properly cleaned and split spoon sampler was properly seated
in position in the borehole. The split spoon sampler resting on the bottom of borehole was allowed to
sink under its own weight; then the sampler was allowed to penetrate 15 cm with the blows of the
hammer 63.50 kg weight falling free through 75 cm, thereafter the split spoon sampler was further
rd
driven by another 15 cm. For the 3 and final drive, the sampler was further allowed to penetrate 15
cm. The number of blows required to affect each 15 cm of penetration was recorded. The first 15 cm
The total blows of penetration for the second and third 15 cm of penetration is termed
the penetration resistance N. The N’ values are indicative of the compactness/ relative density of
In case the blows count of SPT in soil (including the number of blows of seating) exceeds 100,
the corresponding penetration was recorded and this particular test at that depth stopped. If the
total penetration is more than the seating penetration of 15 cm, then breakup of blows count for
SPT ‘N’ values are correlated with relative of non-cohesive stratum as per BS: 5930 (1999) - for
Hard Above 32
In this method, the sampler acts as a probe and the driving energy is supplied by the fall
of the drop weight. The values of ‘N’ depend on the compactness or relative density of the
materiel. In hard formations, the testing is discontinued if ‘N’ value is found to be more than
‘N’ value depends upon degree of saturation and over burden pressure of the formation.
Silty fine sand and fine sand below the water table develop pore water pressure
Depending on the in-situ void ratio which in turn affects the effective stress. This change
Soil sample obtained from standard spoon sampler for all above standard penetration tests were
collected in the polythene bags of suitable size. These samples were property seal, labelled,
Disturbed soil samples were tried to be collected at 1.50-meter interval and at significant
change of stratum. Soil from cutting edge of SPT samplers and retained in split spoon sampler,
used for Standard Penetration Tests was taken as disturbed samples. These samples were
placed without delay in adequately sealed polythene bags. The laboratory tests were conducted
2.2 Undisturbed soil samples were tried to be collected in accordance with IS: 2132-1986. Undisturbed soil
samples (UDS) was obtained in 100 mm diameter MS tubes of length 450 mm at 3.00 meter interval in all the
bore holes.
Undisturbed samples were collected using 75 mm dia. and 450 mm long MS tubes provided with
sampler head with ball check arrangement in power operated rotary drilling for deep bore holes.
Collection of Undisturbed samples in very hard cohesive soils/ dense granular soils/gravels/ cobbles/
pebbles/ boulders, refusal strata is practically not possible and such collected samples will not truly
Immediately after taking undisturbed sample in a tube, the adopter head was removed along with the
disturbed material. The visible ends of the samples shall each be trimmed off any wet disturbed soil.
The ends will then be coated alternately with four layers of just molten wax. More molten wax will
then be added to give a total thickness of not less than 25mm. The laboratory test results have been
reported
2.3 IF The water table at this site was encountered during the boring operation. Depth of water table was
recorded as per IS 6935-1973. Recorded depth of water table in different bore holes are reported below.

3. LABORATORY INVESTIGATION:
3.1 Field moisture contents were determined by oven drying method as per IS 2720 (part II)-1997.
The results have been reported in Table 1 to table 3 of Appendix A under the title “Laboratory Test
Result”.
3.2 Bulk density of soil strata were obtained using density ring method. The results have been
reported in Table 1 to table 3 of Appendix A under the title “Laboratory Test Result”.
3.3 Mechanical sieve analysis test were performed in accordance with IS 2720 (Part IV) - 1985, for
the purpose of identification by grain size analysis, on coarse part of the soil
3.4 Samples and the results have been reported in Table 1 to table 3 of Appendix A under the title
“Laboratory Test Result”.
3.5 Particle size analysis test by hydrometer method were performed in accordance with IS 2720
(Part IV) - 1995 on the part of soil samples obtained after the sieve analysis. The results have
been reported in Table 1 to table 3 of Appendix A under the title “Laboratory Test Result”.
3.6 Atterbergs limits tests were performed in accordance with IS 2720 (part V)-1985 and results have

Note: - If the void ratio is less than 0.55, the shear failure is considered as General shear failure. On the other
hand, if the relative density is smaller than 20% and the void ratio is greater than 0.75, the failure is local shear
failure. For relative density between 20% and 70% and the void ratio 0.55 to 0.75, the bearing capacity factors
are obtained by interpolation between the general shear failure and local shear failure.
