3.0SUBSURFACEEXPLORATION
3.1DRILLING:
Three borehole of 150mm diameter are drill up to depth of 30 meter Where caving of the borehole
occurred, casing was used to keep the borehole stable. The work was in general accordance with
IS:18921997.
3.1.1DISTURBEDSAMPLES:
Disturbedrepresentativesampleswerecollected,logged,labelledandplacedinpolythenebags.
3.1.2UNDISTURBEDSAMPLES:
Undisturbed soil samples are collected in 100 mm diameter thin walled sampler (Shelby tube)
from the borehole. The sampler used for the sampling had smooth surface and appropriate area
ratio and cutting edge angle thereby minimizing disturbance of soil during sampling. Samples are
logged and labelled properly and transfer to the laboratory for further testing. Undisturbed soil
samplesarenotcollectedincaseofsandy/dense/hardstrata.
3.1.3WATERTABLE:
Water table was encountered during the sub soil exploration work carried out in the month of Jan
2017
3.1.4METHODOFSAMPLING:
Sampler is coupled together with a sampler head to form a sampling assembly. The sampler head
provide a nonflexible connection between the sampling tube and the drill rods. Vent holes are
provided in the sampler head to allow escape of water from the top of sampler tube during
penetration. The sampling tubes are made free from dust and rust. Coating of oil is applied on
bothsidestoobtaintheundisturbedsamplesinbestpossiblemanner.

The sampler is then lowered inside the bore hole on a string of rods and driven to a pre
determined level. On completion of driving the sampler is first rotated within the borehole
to shear the soil sample at bottom and then pulled out. Upon removal of the sampling tubes,
the length of sample in the tube is recorded. The disturbed material in the upper end of the tube, if
any,iscompletelyremovedbeforesealing.

The soil at the lower end of the tube is trimmed to a distance of about 10 to 20 mm. After cleaning
and inserting an impervious disc at each end, both ends are sealed. The empty space in the
sampler, if any, is filled with the moist soil, and the ends covered with tight wrapper. The
identificationmarkisthenmadeoneachsample.

3.2STANDARDPENETRATIONTEST:
The standard penetration tests are conducted in each bore as per IS: 2131: 1981 (Reaffirmed 2002).
The split spoon sampler resting on the bottom of bore hole is allowed to sink under its own
weight, then the split spoon sampler is seated 15 cm with the blows of hammer falling through
750mm.Thedrivingassemblyconsistsofadrivingheadanda63.5kgweight.

It is ensured that the energy of the falling weight is not reduced by friction between the drive
weight and the guides or between ropes. The rods to which the sampler is attached for driving are
straight, tightly coupled and straight in alignment. Thereafter the split spoon sampler is further
driven by 30cm. The number of blows required to drive each 15cm penetration is recorded. The
first 15cm of drive considered as seating drive. The total blows required for the second and
third 15cm penetration is termed as a penetration resistance N value. The N values for each
boreholearegiveninborelogs

4.A.1NaturalMoistureContentTest(IS:2720,1992Part2)
Test procedure conforms to IS: 2720 Part 2. A moisture cup is loosely filled with soil sample and
weighed with lid. It is then kept in oven with lid removed and maintained at temperature of oven
at 110oC for 24 hours. The lid of the container is then replaced and the dry weight found out. The
percentageofwatercontentiscalculatedusingtheformula.

W3=weightofcontainerwithdrysoil,ing.
W=moisturecontent(%)
4.A.2GrainSizeAnalysis(IS:2720,1992Part4)
Testing procedure generally conforms to IS: 2720 Part 4. Both sieve and hydrometer analysis has
beencarriedout.

Sieve Analysis: Sieve analysis is done by wet sieving method. Oven dried soil is washed through
75m IS sieve. Fraction retained was oven dried and particle size analysis carried out using sieve
shaker by passing through the following IS sieve: 4.75mm, 2.36mm, 1.70mm, 1.40mm, 1.00mm,
600,425,100,and75respectively.

Hydrometer Analysis : 50 g of soil 75 passing IS sieve was mixed with 3.3 g passing sodium hexa
metaphosphate and 0.7g sodium carbonate and soil suspension prepared. Suspension was made
up to 1000 ml distilled water and then shaken thoroughly. Hydrometer is immersed to a depth
slightly below its floating position and then allowed to float freely. Hydrometer readings are
taken at 10, 20, 30 and 45 sec, subsequently at 1, 2, 4, 8,15 and 30 minutes and finally at 1, 2, 4, 8
and 24 hour interval. Diameter of the particle in suspension at any sampling timet is calculated
using Stokes formula and the percentage finer was calculated. In the semi log graph, silt and
clayfractionsareindicatedalongwithcoarserfractions.

Liquid Limit: Liquid limit and plastic limit test on cohesive has been done as per procedure in IS
2720 (Part 5) using the more reliable cone penetrometer, method where errors of grove cutting
involved in Casagrandes device are minimized. In cone penetrometer test about 200 g of passing
425 sieve is taken mixed with requisite water, placed in cup and compacted lightly in 3layers.
The tip of penetrometer is adjusted such that it just touches soil surface. The needle is allowed to
plunge slowly under its own weight for 5 seconds and penetration in mm is recorded. The water
content is adjusted such that penetration is between 2030mm. The following relationship is used
toevaluateliquidlimit.
Plastic Limit: About 15g of oven dried soil passing through 425 sieve is mixed with sufficient
quantity of water to become plastic enough to be easily shaped into a ball. A portion of this ball is
rolled on a glass plate with the palm into a thread of uniform diameter of 3mm. The
correspondingwatercontentrepresentstheplasticlimitofthesoil.
PlasticIndex: PI=LiquidlimitPlasticlimit.
Shrinkage Limit (IS : 2720, Part 6, 1992): It is the maximum water content expressed as
percentage of ovendry weight at which any further reduction in water content will not cause a

4.A.4SpecificGravityTest(IS:2720,Part31992)
The specific gravity of soil solids is determined by a 50 ml density bottle. The weight (W1) of the
empty dry bottle is taken first. A sample of ovendried soil about 1020 g cooled in a desiccators, is
put in the bottle, and weight (W2) of the bottle and the soil taken. The bottle is then filled with
distilled water gradually removing the entrapped air either by applying (W3) of the bottle, soil
and water (full up to the top) is then taken. Finally the bottle is emptied completely and

4.A.5FreeSwellValueTest(IS:2720,Part401977)
Free Swell Index Test was conformed as per IS: 2720 Part 40 1977. In this test 10 gm of soil
passing IS sieve 425 is taken. Two graduated cylinders of 25 ml capacity are taken. One cylinder
isfilledwithKeroseneoilandtheother
with distilled water and soil. Remove entrapped air by shaking well and stirring using a glass rod.
Allow the soil in both the jars to settle for a sufficient time (not less than 24 hours) for the soil
sample to attain equilibrium state of volume without any further changes. Free swell index is
calculatedasfollows:
F.S.I(%)=[(VdVk)/Vk]x100
Where,
Vd=Thevolumeofsoilsamplereadfromthegraduatedcylindercontainingdistilledwater.
Vk=ThevolumeofsoilsamplereadfromthegraduatedcylindercontainingKerosene.
4.A.6SwellPressureTest(IS:2720,Part41,1977)
The swell pressure tests are carried out at field dry density with zero percent moisture content
and by constant and volume method. An oven dry soil specimen is compacted into the specimen
ring with the specimen kept in between two porous stone saturated in boiling water providing a
filter paper between the soil specimen and the porous stones. The loading block is then positioned
centrally on the top of the porous stone. The assembly is then placed on the platen of loading unit.
The load measuring proving ring is attached to the load frame and placed in contact with the
consolidation cell without any eccentricity. A direct strain measuring dial gauge is fitted to the
cell. The specimen is then inundated with distilled water and allowed to swell. The initial reading
of the proving ring s noted. The swelling of the specimen with increasing volume is obtained in
the strain measuring load gauge. The specimen is kept at constant volume by adjusting the strain
dial gauge always at original reading. This adjustment is done at every 0.1mm of swell or earlier.
Theswellpressureisthencalculatedfrmthedifferencebetweenthefinal
and initial dial readings of the proving ring. Swell pressure (Kg/cm2) is calculated as follows: SP =

((Final Dial Gauge reading Initial Dial Gauge reading) / Area of specimen ) x Calibration factor of

theprovingring.

4.A.7TriaxialShearTest(UU)(IS:2720Part11,1992)
The extracted specimen is then placed in triaxial cell pedestal. The cell is assembled and placed on
loading machine. A cell pressure through an operating fluid (oil) was applied. The plunger was
made to have proper contact with specimen. A compressive force at a constant strain rate of 1.25
mm/min is applied, till the failure occurred within a period of 515 minutes or rill the failure of
20%strainwasremoved,cellchambercleanedandtestcontinuedonanewspecimen.
The test was repeated on three different specimens at three different cell pressures as per standard
practice. MohrCoulomb envelopes were drawn for three stress values recorded and total stress
parametersinterpretedfromtheMohrCoulombgraph.

4.A.8UnconfinedCompressiveStrength(IS:2720Part10,1991)
Unconfined Compressive Strength, the only modification (visvis) UU Triaxial is that no lateral
confinement is provided in this case and no cell pressure is applied. The sample is sheared entirely

4.A.9DirectShearTest(IS:2720,Part13,1992)
Direct shear test is carried out using shear box with the specimens (60mm x 60mm). Specimen
with plain grid plate at the bottom of the specimen and plain grid plate at the top of the specimen
is fitted into position in the shear box housing and assembly placed on the load frame. The
serrations of the grid plates are kept at right angle to the direction of shear. The loading pad is
kept on the top grid plate. The required normal stress is applied and the rate of longitudinal
displacement shear stress application so adjusted that no drainage can occur in the sample during
the test (1.25mm/min.). The upper part of the shear box is raised such that a gap of about 1mm is
left between the two parts of the box. The test is conducted by applying horizontal shear load to
failure or to 20 percent longitudinal displacement whichever occurs first. The test is repeated on
identicalspecimens.

4.A.10OneDimensionalConsolidationTest(IS:2720Part15,1992)
Consolidation test was done to evaluate compressibility behavior of stiff / hard clayey silt.
Procedure is described below. The empty consolidation ring W1 is weighed. Representative
sample for testing is extruded and cut off, care being taken to ensure that the two plane faces of
the resulting soil disc are parallel to each other. The soil sample thus obtained is trimmed flush
with the top and bottom edges of the ring. A sample of soil similar to that in the ring taken from
the trimmings is used for determining moisture content. The thickness of the specimen (Ho) is
measured and it is weighed immediately (W2). The bottom porous stone is centered on the base of
the consolidation cell. The ring and specimen is placed centrally on the bottom porous stone and
then the loading cap is placed on top. The consolidometer is placed in position in the loading
deviceandsuitablyadjusted.Thedialgaugeisthenclampedintopositionforrecording
the relative movement between the base of the consolidation cell and the loading cap. A seating

pressure of 0.0625 kg/cm2 is applied to the specimen. The consolidation cell is filled with distilled
water. The specimen is then allowed to reach equilibrium for 24 hrs. The test is continued using a

loading sequence, which would successively apply stress of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 , 4.0, 8.0 kg/cm2 etc
on the soil specimen For each loading increment, after application of load, readings of the dial
gauge are taken using a time sequence such as 0, 0.25, 4, 6.25, 9, 12.25, 16, 20.25, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81,
100, 121, 144, 169, 196, 225 min etc. up to 24 hr or 1. 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 15, 30, 60min, 2, 4, 8 and
24hr. These time sequences facilitate plotting of thickness or change of thickness of specimen
against square root of time or against log time. The loading increment is left until readings become
more or less constant. On completion of the final loading stage the specimen is unloaded by
suitable pressure decrements. Dial gauge readings are taken as necessary during each stage of
unloading.Oncompletionofthedecrement,the
water is siphoned out of the cell and the consolidometer is rapidly dismantled after release of the
final load. The specimen, preferably within the ring, is wiped free of water, weighed (W3) and
thereafter placed in the oven for drying. Following drying, the specimen plus ring is reweighed
(W4).ElogPcurveisdrawnandconsolidationparametersdeduced.
