1. INTRODUCTION The work of soil investigation for the proposed Multi Modal Logistic Hub project at VPT, Visakhapatnam, was assigned to M/s GEO TECHNOLOGIES, vide Work Order No. BL/NI/MMLH/Vizag/Wo-001 dated: 22-05-2014 from M/s, Kolkata. Geotechnical investigations were carried out by drilling Nine (09) bore holes, conducting Standard Penetration Tests, collecting soil and rock samples and conducting relevant laboratory tests. California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests and Dynamic Cone Penetration Tests (DCPT) were also conducted. Fig.1. gives the Site Plan of the proposed development, showing the locations of bore holes, California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests and Dynamic Cone Penetration Tests (DCPT). The aim of investigations is to determine the depth of foundations and the Safe Bearing Capacity based on Field and Laboratory Investigations. All the investigations are carried out in accordance with the relevant BIS (IS) Codes. 3

2. FIELD INVESTIGATIONS OBJECTIVE: The sub soil investigation was carried out to determine the nature of stratum and engineering properties of soil which may affect the mode of construction of the proposed structures, and to recommend the SBC of foundations accordingly. BORE HOLES: Nine (09) bore holes (BH-1 to BH-9) were drilled at the locations fixed by the client (Fig.1). Table-1 gives the details of the bore holes drilled. The bore holes were planned so as to yield complete information in the effective and critical zones under the foundations. DRILLING: Rotary Drilling was performed as per IS: 1892. The size of the casing used was 125 to 75 mm yielding samples of NX size. The following information was collected during the drilling operations: Depth-wise soil profile Depth and results of SPT Details of soil and rock samples collected Core recovery & RQD of rock Color of return water 4

STANDARD PENETRATION TEST (SPT): Standard Penetration Tests were conducted at frequent intervals in the bore holes. These tests were performed as specified in IS: 2131-1981. In this test, a standard weight is dropped through 75 cm height to drive the split-spoon sampler, and the number of blows required to effect three consecutive 15 cm penetrations is recorded. The first 15 cm penetration is considered as seating drive and neglected. Thereafter, the split-spoon sampler is further driven for 30 cm penetration or 100 blows, whichever is reached earlier. The total number of blows for the second and third 15 cm penetrations is designated as penetration resistance N. If less than 30 cm is penetrated, the number of blows and the depth penetrated are recorded, and N value is recoded as N > 100. If the number of blows exceeds 100, Refusal is said to have been reached and further testing is discontinued. FIELD BORE LOGS: All the details collected from the field operations are presented in Logs of Bore holes given in Annexure-1. These logs contain depth wise strata details, sample collection data, results of Standard Penetration Tests, core recovery data, and colour of return water etc. SAMPLES: All the samples collected were properly packed, labeled and transported to Geo Technologies Soil Testing Laboratory at Hyderabad. CBR TESTS : The CBR tests (CBR-1 to CBR-3) were conducted at three (3) locations shown in the site plan (Fig.1), at a depth of 30 cm. The tests were conducted in accordance with IS: 2720 (Part-31): 1969 Field Determination of California Bearing Ratio. The equipment comprises mechanical loading jack of 10 ton capacity, with bracket and swivel head. A bridge support is provided for a calibrated proving ring of capacity 5000 kg, with a dial gauge to read to an accuracy of 0.002 mm. A 50-mm dia metal penetration piston 5

is used for penetration. A dial gauge held in a universal dial gauge clamp, supported by datum bar is used for measuring the penetration. One 5-kg, 250-mm dia annular metal weight, with a 53-mm dia central hole and two circular slotted weights of 5 kg & two circular slotted weights of 10 kg are used as surcharge weights. Equipment to provide reaction (truss, truck) are located such that the beam is over the centre of the surface under test. The load is applied at the rate of 1.25 mm / min. Load readings are recorded for penetrations of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0 & 12.5 mm. Each test was conducted with three trials (at 3 adjacent points) in unsoaked and soaked conditions. Soil samples were also collected from the test locations for laboratory CBR tests. DCPT TESTS : Dynamic Cone Penetration tests were conducted at four locations as per IS Code: 4968 (Part-1): 1976 Method for Subsurface Sounding for Soils: Part 1: Dynamic Method using 50 mm Cone without Bentonite slurry. A 50 mmm dia, 60 cone screwed to the driving rod and hammer assembly was used for the test. This assembly is kept vertical with the cone resting on the ground to be tested. The cone is then driven into the soil by allowing a 65 kg hammer to fall freely through a height of 750 mm each time. The number of blows per every 100 mm penetration of the cone is noted. The process is repeated for three consecutive 100 mm penetration and the sum of number of blows is recorded as DCPT value (Ncd). When the Ncd value reaches 100, it is treated as refusal and driving is stopped. 6

3. LABORATORY TESTING The samples were tested at the Soil Testing Laboratory of GEO TECHNOLOGIES at Hyderabad. The following tests were performed on the Soil samples: Natural Moisture Content Atterberg s Limits (Liquid Limit & Plastic Limit) Bulk density & dry Density Specific gravity Particle size distribution (a) Sieve (b) Hydrometer Triaxial Shear / Direct Shear Consolidation Test Lab CBR Test (Unsoaked & Soaked) Chemical Analysis for ph, Sulphate & Chloride on soil / water All the tests were conducted in accordance with IS: 2720 (Methods of Tests for Soils). The following tests were conducted on rock samples: Unit weight of rock (Density) Water Absorption Porosity Uniaxial Crushing Strength These tests were conducted in accordance with IS: 1124 1974 and IS: 9143 1979. 7

4. ANALYSIS OF DATA & RESULTS BORE HOLE DATA: From the field observation charts, sub-soil profiles, showing the variation of soil strata with depth and SPT (N) values, are drawn for all the 9 bore holes. Fig. 2 gives the Combined Log of the 9 bore holes. Based on the results of lab tests, physical and engineering properties of soil and rock samples are tabulated. Tables 2(a) to 2(c) give the results of lab testing of soil samples. Table 3 gives the results of testing of rock samples. Tables 4(a) & 4(b) give the results of chemical tests on soil and water samples. ANALYSIS OF CBR DATA: CBR test data is analyzed for calculating CBR value as per IS Code: 2720 (Part 31): 1969, Clause 5. From the stress-penetration curves, the stress values corresponding to 2.5 mm and 5.0 mm penetrations are read, and the California Bearing Ratio is calculated as: CBR = (PT / PS) x 100, Where PT = Test stress value corresponding to the chosen penetration value, and PS = Standard stress for the same penetration value, taken from Table-1 of the Code (PS (2.5 mm) = 70 kg/cm 2 ; PS (5 mm) = 105 kg/cm 2 ). Tables 5 (a) & 5(b) give the results of Field and Lab CBR Tests. ANALYSIS OF DCPT DATA: The results Dynamic Cone Penetration Tests are presented as Ncd value versus depth. Table 6 gives DCPT results for four locations. DCPT (Ncd) values are, by and large, correlatable with SPT values at the corresponding depths in the nearby borehole data. 8

5. SUB-SOIL PROFILE Based on Nine (09) bore logs, the generalized subsoil profile at the site is as follows: Depth, m Strata N Value 0.00 7.00 Clay / Silty clay / silty sand 2 7 7.00 9.00 Clayey / Silty gravel 12 45 9.00 14.00 / Soft Disintegrated Rock (SDR) 38 100 Below 14.00 Refusal strata / Rock > 100 & Cores Thickness of the top soil layer varies from 3.5 m to 9.5 m in different bore holes, with an average of about 7 m. This layer consists of clay, silty clay and silty sand. N values in this layer are very low (2 to 7). These soils are soft and weak. It should be noted that filled-up soil exists only in the area of BH-7. Thickness of filling in the borehole is 4.3 m. The top soil is followed by clayey gravel / silty gravel to a depth of 6.0 12.0 m, with N values varying over a wide limit (12 to 50), in different boreholes. This is underlain by / Soft Disintegrated Rock (SDR) to a depth of 9.0 14.0 m. N values in this layer vary from 38 to 100. No cores were recovered in SDR strata due to weathering and fissuring. SDR strata is followed by refusal strata (N > 100), consisting of SDR / weathered rock / Hard rock. Drilling was done through this layer up to 3 m from refusal strata in BH-3 and BH-6. Rock with core recovery is seen in bore holes BH-2, BH-3, BH-5, BH-6 and BH-9. Core recovery varies from 42% to 82%, and RQD varies from 0% to 50%. Water table was seen between ground level and 5.40 m in different bore holes. 9

6. RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations are made for the proposed Multi Modal Logistic Hub project at VPT, Visakhapatnam. These recommendations are based on Standard Penetration Tests and Laboratory Tests on samples from Nine (09) bore holes, three (3) Field and Lab CBR tests, and four (4) Dynamic Cone Penetration Tests. Sub-soil Profile: The subsoil profile at the site can be broadly generalized as follows: Depth, m Strata N Value 0.00 7.00 Clay / Silty clay / silty sand 2 7 7.00 9.00 Clayey / Silty gravel 12 45 9.00 14.00 / Soft Disintegrated Rock (SDR) 38 100 Below 14.00 Refusal strata / Rock > 100 & Cores The top layer essentially consists of clay / silty clay / silty sand. Filled-up soil is observed only in BH-7 to a depth of 4.3 m. Thickness of the top layer varies from 3.0 m (BH-2) to 9.4 m (BH-7). N (SPT) values in this layer are very low. The top soil is followed by clayey gravel / silty gravel to a depth of 6.0 12.0 m, with N values varying over a wide limit (12 to 50), in different boreholes. This is underlain by / Soft Disintegrated Rock (SDR) to a depth of 9.0 15.0 m. N values in this layer vary from 38 to 100. No cores were recovered in SDR strata due to weathering and fissuring. Ground water level is generally at 0 2 m below the present GL. DCPT (Ncd) values at the four test locations vary from 3 to 125 in the depth range 0 to 10 m, and are, by and large, correlatable with SPT values at the corresponding depths in the nearby borehole data. 10

Boundary wall foundations Specific Recommendations for Boundary Wall Foundation: The soils from 0 7 m are weak and soft soils (Clay /silty clay/silty sand). N values are less than 10. Considering the soft soils, the following alternatives are suggested: Open foundations at a depth of 3 m with SBC of 10 t / sq m, and sand bed. SBC calculations are given in Appendix 1 Alternatively, 10 m long Piles may be used. Pile dia may be 300 mm with a vertical pile capacity of 20 tonnes. Pile capacity calculations are given in Appendix-3. PAVEMENT: It should be noted that the top soil essentially consists of clay / silty clay / silty sand. Thickness of this layer varies from 3.0 m to 9.5 m below existing ground level in different boreholes. Filled up soil of thickness 4.3 m exists in the area of Bore Hole-7. Soaked CBR values of the top soil (clay/silty clay/silty sand) are quite low (3% to 4%). Design: As per Tender Document, Axle load transferred for each side of front axle of container handling Reach Stacker equipment is taken as 50 MT. Sri Mohan Kumar, Manager, Railway Division, AARVEE Consultants, has given Cumulative Standard Axles as 1.971 million times with full load over the surface. From IRC: 37 2001 (Guidelines for Design of Flexible Pavments), Fig. 1 ( Pavement design Thickness Chart ), For CBR = 3 %, and Cumulative Standard Axles = 2 million, Total Pavement Thickness T = 580 mm, say 600 mm 15

Pavement design of Combination Block for 2 million Cumulative Standard Axles is as follows (IRC: 37-2001): Total Pavement Thickness T = Y + Z = 600 mm Where Y = Thickness of Granular Base = 225 mm Z = Thickness of Granular Sub Base = 375 mm X = Thickness of Surfacing = 20 mm 16

Base Material: This requires the load spreading properties to reduce the stresses on the subgrade. This has an important bearing on the performance of block pavement. Since the available strata are unsuitable, base course should consist of unbound crushed rock, water bound macadam, wet mix macadam, cement-bound crushed rock / granular materials, and lean cement concrete. In broad terms, whenever the subgrade is weak (with CBR < 5 %, as in the present case), use of bound granular materials like cement treated crushed rock, requiring a relatively thinner base, is recommended. Sub - base Material: The quality of sub-base materials includes natural gravels, cement treated gravels, sand stabilized sub grade materials. The quality of sub grade materials should be in conformance with IRC: 37-2001 (Guidelines for the Design of Flexible Pavements). Drainage: Drainage of the pavement structural section improves its performance. Adequately designed sub surface drainage system consisting of an open graded drainage layer with collector and outlet pipes should be provided (IRC: 37-2001). 17

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL & WATER: Results of Chemical analysis of soil are as follows: Parameter Range Average ph 7.76 8.02 7.9 Chlorides as Cl, ppm 420 445 433 Sulphates as SO4, ppm 282 201 242 Results of Chemical analysis of water are as follows: Parameter Range Average ph 6.23 7.15 6.7 Chlorides as Cl, mg/l 23100 24400 23750 Sulphates as SO4, mg/l 4093 5068 4580 The values of Chlorides and Sulphates in water are in excess of permissible limits as per IS: 456, and may have deleterious influence on concrete and steel. Effective precautionary measures are required. Use of Sulphate-Resistant Cement and Corrosion-Resistant Steel is recommended for sub-structure. (Dr. D.
