19 GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING REPORT FOR CCR PLANT OF M/S. BPCL AT MAHUL MUMBAI, MAHARASHTRA NOBLE GEO-STRUCTS PROJECT NO. B 12 July 20, 20 INTRODUCTION Noble Geo-Structs is pleased to submit our Geotechnical Engineering Report for CCR plant of M/s. BPCL at Mahul, Mumbai, in the State of Maharashtra, India. The project was authorized by N. A. Kande (Manager, P & CS) for Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited through their letter of intent (LOI) no. BPCL/UIPL/CCR/N19/01 dated April 5, 20. The purpose of this report is to describe the subsurface conditions observed at the twenty three test borings drilled for this study, analyze and evaluate the test data, and provide recommendations with respect to: chemical nature of the sub-soil; and strength and stability of strata for deciding the founding level. project description The project involves the proposed development of CCR plant of M/s. BPCL at Mahul, Mumbai, in the State of Maharashtra, India. SCOPE OF WORK Specifications of the work include drilling twenty three test bore holes at stipulated locations, tests (in-situ and ex situ) on soil, rock and ground water samples, interpretation of test data and test results and preparation of a geotechnical report.

20 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Field Work Field work consisted of twenty three test boreholes at stipulated locations, collecting disturbed, undisturbed soil samples and rock samples at salient locations, conducting standard penetration test (SPT).

Point load Index C) Chemical analysis of soil Chemical analysis test of soil samples including sulphate (SO 3 ), Chloride and ph D) Chemical analysis of water Chemical analysis test of water samples including sulphate (SO 3 ), Chloride, and ph E) Foundation Recommendation 1 Depth of foundation 2 Type of foundation 3 Net safe bearing capacity INVESTIGATION METHODOLOGY AND SUB-SOIL CHARACTERISTICS Subsurface Exploration The subsurface condition was evaluated through twenty three test boreholes to the required depth. The borings were drilled using Calyx machine at the stipulated locations. The boring depths were measured from the existing grade at the time of our field activities. The object of site exploration is to provide reliable, specific and detailed information about the soil and rock conditions for foundation design.

22 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Field Investigation Drilling Core drilling was completed using rotary type boring machine with diamond bits. Casing of 150mm diameter was advanced up to the firm strata as per IS In order to extract maximum possible information and to prevent the loss of valuable sub-surface data obtained during the drilling of rock core (NX size) indexing and storing of the cores obtained was done as specified by IS standards. Sampling in soils Undisturbed soil samples Cohesive soil samples were obtained using thin wall tube samplers, as per IS: 2132 in such a manner that moisture content and structure of soil did not alter. The sampler was slightly oiled from outside to reduce friction. It was then attached to the boring rod, lower to the bottom of the hole and pressed into the soil. The sampler tubes were serially numbered immediately on their recovery. Disturbed soil sample Cohesionless soil samples were obtained from boreholes at each 1 m interval or at the change of strata whichever occurs earlier and stored as per procedure laid down by IS: These samples are used for grain size analysis; Atterberg limits tests and chemical analysis. The samples were stored in polythene bags and numbered appropriately for proper identification. Standard Penetration Test on Soil The standard penetration tests were conducted inside exploratory bore holes at depths shown in bore logs as per the procedure stipulated in IS: The disturbed soil sample from tube was carefully stored to carry out further tests. The values of standard penetration blows, N values, at various borehole locations are indicated in the respective bore logs. SPT N values are co-related with relative density of non-cohesive stratum and with consistency of cohesive stratum. Co-relations are tabulated in Appendix A3 General Notes table 1 and 2

23 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Electrical Resistivity Test The test was conducted as per IS 1892 & IS 3043 The electrical resistivity method is based on the measurement and recording of change in the mean resistivity or apparent specific resistance of various soils. The resistivity is usually defined as the resistance between opposite phases of a unit cube of the material. By the determination of vertical and lateral variations in this resistance it is possible, within certain limitations, to infer the stratification and lateral extent of subsurface deposits. Several methods involving different electrode arrangement have been developed for making field resistivity measurements. Among these are the Wanner, Schlumberger, and Lee Methods. Schlumberger method is commonly utilized for most European surveys. This method is also accepted in India. P = 2 * 3.142*DE/l Wherein P = Mean resistivity Ohm-m D = Distance between the electrodes (cm) E = Potential drop between inner electrode (V) I = Current flowing between outer electrode (A) Static plate load test The static plate load test is carried out at desired. The test pit of 2 m x 2 m x 3.5m in size is dug up to the test depth. A rigid, 25 mm thick steel plate of 600 mm x 600 mm or of desired size is firmly seated at the center of the pit. The loads on the test plate are applied by reaction loading method to avoid fluctuations, impact, eccentricity etc. The loading frame fabricated on ground for this purpose, has the weight of 1 T. It is further loaded with aggregate filled gunny bags weighing 15 T. This load is uniformly distributed over the loading frame. The hydraulic jack has an attached pressure gauge, which is carefully calibrated. A steel ball is placed at the central point of the jack and the frame, to ensure vertical application of the load. The pressures are applied in suitable increments. The pressure is increased to the next higher intensity of pressure step when no appreciable settlement is noted under the applied intensity of pressure over considerable time interval. The settlement, of the test plate is measured with reference to an independent steel slotted angle, anchored in the ground. The settlements are measured using dial gauges having least count of 0.01 mm i.e. measuring to the accuracy of 0.01 mm.

24 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Block Vibration Test: Purpose of performing this test is to characterise the substrata for dynamic properties to be used in Machine Foundation design. This test given natural frequency, damping coefficient, shear modulus etc. 1. Block vibration test was conducted as per IS Test Pit: A test pit of size 3.0 m x 3.0 m and the depth, of 1.5m is prepared. The test is conducted above ground. Bottom of the pit is kept perfect horizontal. 3. Test Block: A plain cement concrete block of mix M15 is cast in the test pit. Size of the block is 3.0 m x 3.0 m x 1.5m. It is cured continuously before testing. At the time of casting, foundation bolts are embedded into the concrete block. 4. Test Set up: Vibration oscillator is fixed on the concrete block and suitable connections are made. The vibration pickup is fixed at the top of block, such that, it senses its vertical motion. The vibration oscillator is excited through power amplifier, to generate purely sinusoidal vibrations. The line of action of dynamic force passes through the centre of gravity of the concrete block. Vibration oscillator is operated at a specified frequency through a frequency generator. Signal of the vibration pickup is fed into the AC mili-volt meter, to measure the amplitude of vibrating block. The frequency of oscillator is increased in steps and corresponding amplitudes of vibration of the block are recorded, which include the maximum amplitude, corresponding to the resonant condition. Amplitude v/s frequency response is plotted for each excitation level (which is achieved by increasing the magnitude of dynamic force, by increasing the current).

25 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Sampling in rock Rock cores When rock was encountered, size of borehole was changed to NX (76mm) diameters. A double tube and NX sized bits are used drilling and recovering rock cores. Recovered rock cores were numbered serially and preserved in good quality sturdy wooden core boxes. Rock Core Recovery and Rock Quality Designation (RQD) were computed for every run length drilled. Rock samples have been selected based on the probable founding elevation of the proposed structure. Rock classification in terms of weathering and state of fractures and strength is carried out as in APPENDIX A3 General Notes Table 3. Laboratory Tests Soil Tests The soil samples collected from boreholes were analyzed for their physical and engineering properties as described below: Grain Size Analysis A quantitative determination of the particle size distribution in the soil was made by wet sieve analysis and sedimentation analysis using hydrometer. Procedure laid down by IS: 2720 Part IV were followed. The particle sizes were designated according to the scale given in IS: 1498 (Table -1). PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION Classification (Identified by behaviour) Denseness Size of particles in mm Gravel Coarse 80 to 20 Fine 20 to 4.75 Coarse 4.75 to 2 Sand Medium 2 to Fine to Silt & Clay Less than 0.075

26 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Specific Gravity The specific gravity of the soil was determined by the principle of displacement of water by soil solids. This test is determined as per test procedure laid in IS: 2720 (Part 3 and 4). Atterberg Limits To understand the plasticity and shrinkage characteristic of the soils, liquid limit, plastic limit and shrinkage limits were determined. Liquid limit is the moisture content at which soil passes from plastic stage to liquid state as determined by the liquid limit test. Plastic Limit is the moisture content at which the soil, becomes too dry to be in a plastic condition as determined by the Plastic Limit Test. Reduction of moisture content by drying below Shrinkage Limit is not accompanied by decrease in volume; instead air enters the voids of the system and material becomes unsaturated. The Liquid Limit and Plastic Limit are determined as per IS: 2720 Part - V and Shrinkage Limit as per IS: 2720 Part VI. Natural Moisture Content This test shall be carried out as per IS: 2720 (Part - II). Dry Density Dry Density is determined on undisturbed sample only. Triaxial Test Triaxial Shear Tests, (Unconsolidated Undrained & Consolidated Drained), are carried on UDS & DS samples as per IS: 2720: Part- XII. Swelling Pressure Test This test shall be conducted as per Draft Standard circulated by Technical Committee on Expansive Soils (TC-6) of international Society of Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Evaluation of Swelling Pressure of Expansive Soil in Laboratory (circulated in November, 1990).

27 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 Consolidation Consolidation test was conducted as per IS 2720 part XV The following loading stage shall be employed 0, 0.1, 0.25, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 and 8.0 kg/sq. cm. From e Vs log p curves, preconsolidation pressure shall be determined to establish whether the soil is normally consolidated or over consolidated. The point (e.p.) showing initial condition of the soil under test must be specifically marked on the consolidation curves. Settlement predictions based on the field virgin compression curve shall only be acceptable. The procedure adopted in respect of obtaining compression indices from the field curve and that for computing settlements for the type of clay under consideration shall be clearly illustrated in the report. It is to be noted that deviations from the standard procedure of performing consolidation test give in is 2720 are permissible in order to enable computation of settlements based on the above procedure i.e. cycles (s) of loading unloading shall be employed wherever required. Standard Proctor Test Standard Proctor Test was conducted on DS samples collected from Trial Pits as per IS Part 7. California Bearing Ratio(CBR) Test California Bearing Ratio(CBR)Test was conducted on DS samples collected from Trial Pits as per IS Part 16.

54 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF MUMBAI: Mumbai, Gateway to Asia and the financial capital of the country, is the capital of Maharashtra. It is the leading port on the west coast of India. Mumbai is built on group of island, lying off the Konkan coast. On the western side of the city is the broad sweep of the harbour. In land, the city is framed by the backdrop of the western ghat mountain chains. Mumbai city has an area of about 69sq.kms. and falls within latitudes to N and longitufes to E, in Survey of India toposheet nos.47a and B,F. The city is surrounded by Arabian sea to the west and Thane district to the east and north. The city is well connected by terminals of western, central and harbors Railways. It is connected by road to other parts of the country by National Highway 3 (Agra-Mumbai), 4 (Mumbai Bangalore), 8 (Mumbai Amritsar) and 17 (Mumbai-Goa). The city has two international airports and safe seaport and has air links to all major capitals of the world. The city lies on low, flat land a quarter of which is below the sea level. On the either side are low hills. The eastern hills end in the Nariman point. At the end of the western hills is Malabar hill which, at only 55 metres above the sea level, is the city s highest point. Land reclamation schemes have brought development of the foreshore, but marshes particularly the Thane creek still covers large area. Geologically the entire land is occupied by Deccan Basaltic flows and the associated pyroclastics and the plutonic rocks of upper cretaceous to palaeogene age. The Deccan basalt of Mumbai Island is considered to be the youngest basalt of Eocene age. Overall the geology around Mumbai indicates presence of ultrabasic, basic and acid differentiates with intertrappean beds, agglomerates and tuffs. The ultrabasic differentiates are of limited occurrence. Acid rocks include rhyolite and quartz trachyte. The agglomerate and tuff include reworked material as indicated by current bedding and graded bedding. The basalt flows of the area have been grouped into compound flows (i.e. pahoehoe type), simple flows and flows which do not fall in the above categories and hence termed as unclassified flows. The basaltic flows are typically of quartz and hypersthene normative with minor amount of olivine theolites. The lava pile of Mumbai is inturn intruded by columnar jointed medium grained doleritic dykes.

55 Noble Geo-Structs Project B12 The Deccan Trap basalt has been classified as Sahyadri Group which has been divided into three formations viz. the lower most Upper Ratanghar Formation followed by Elephanta formation and topmost Borivali Formation. The Upper Ratanghar Formation is restricted to two patches, one from Kurla to Mulund and the other at SE of Kurla. This Formations consists of simple aa type of flows. The middle formation i.e. Elephanta Formation comprising of simple and compound flows occur as small isolated patches in the SE corner of the city near Thane creek and covers very negligible area. The rest of the area is covered by rock of Borivali Formation where it is not occupied by alluvium. Normally, alluvium is restricted to the western half of the area. Laterite occure as small isolated patches in the area north and east of Mulund. Bauxite occurs within the laterite in a irregular shape and is not of any economic importance.
