1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

China Communications Commission Company (CCCC) was engaged by UNRA to undertake design
and build scope of works for roads under package 1 comprising: Paraa (Kisanja)-Park Junction and
Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa Roads Upgrading Project (147Km).

Along these roads there are 6No. bridges to be investigated among which are Waiga Bridge (BH01
and BH02) and Wairingo Bridge (BH03 and BH04) Bridges. For design purposes it is necessary to
understand the ground conditions and engineering properties of the soil underneath the proposed
project area for purposes of design. It was in this light that CCCC commissioned TRETA
ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS LIMITED to undertake Geotechnical Investigations along the
proposed bridge sites.

The Geotechnical Investigation exercise was undertaken to confirm the sub surface conditions and
to evaluate the suitability of subsurface soils, including their properties and strength which are
pertinent in the verification of the soil’s capacity to safely handle the expected loadings prior to the
implementation of the construction project.

This report contains brief description of the site, summary of the field work, laboratory testing
programs, test results and their corresponding discussion, and provides recommendations on the
earthwork, foundation designs and excavation work.

1.2 Project Overview

A. Paraa (Kisanja) - Park Junction Road

The roads in this lot consist of the following road sections that are situated in Masindi district.
I. Paraa (Kisanja)- Park Junction (72km)
II. Sambiya- Murchison Falls (12km)

Paraa (Kisanja) - Park Junction is being developed to ease the exploration and production of oil in

Page | 1
China Communication Construction Company Design and Build and Build of Package 1: Paraa (Kisanja)-Park
(CCCC) Junction and Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa Roads Upgrading
Project (147Km)

the region. It branches off the Paraa – Kigumba road about 7km from Paraa. The road is within a
rolling terrain and may need realignment at certain locations to smoothen the horizontal alignment.
The existing road width is varied along the route but is on average 6.5m across.

The road has a steep section of about 100m about 32km from Paraa Park Junction that has been
paved. However, this section is deteriorating and will need to be replaced. There are several
potential sources of murrum within the park area, but utilization of these will have to follow
stipulations and requirements from UWA regarding access and restoration among others.

There are four bridges along this route that will need to be replaced. These are;

A bailey bridge
A 24m long and 3.1m wide single span bailey bridge, 36km from Kisanja located at GPS 02º05.833’,
E031º42.973’. Bailey bridges are meant for light traffic of less than 40tons. Therefore, the oil trucks
and other heavier traffic will not be able to use this bridge.
Wairango Bridge
Wairango Bridge is a 30m long and 3.1m wide single span bridge at 40km from Kisanja located at GPS
02º05.833’, E031º42.973’. The bridge lacks regular maintenance such as river protection and dredging
works.

A steel truss bridge


An 18m long and 3.1m wide single span steel truss bridge at 47km from Kisanja located at GPS
02º08.917’, E031º42.376’. The approaches to the bridge are very sharp and prone to accidents and the
deck level is lower than the formation level of the gravel road on the approaches.

Sambiya Bridge
Sambiya Bridge is located across Sambiya River about 50km from Kisanja at GPS 02º10.709’,
E031º41.828’. It is a composite bridge (steel and concrete) and is 18m long and 3.5m wide. There is
little maintenance on the bridge and siltation has been observed downstream that affects the flow
regimen under the bridge.

The road provides access to Paraa Airfield, Murchison falls, Sambiya River Lodge, Paraa airfield and
Bulaga and Mupiina Ranges among other areas.

Sambiya- Murchison Falls (12km)


The Sambiya- Murchison Falls link starts about 57km from Kisanja Junction and provides direct access
to Murchison Falls. This link will boost tourism in this region and is therefore important to the develo
pment of the region and Uganda as a whole.

(CCCC) Junction and Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa Roads Upgrading
Project (147Km)

B. Tangi Junction- Paraa- Buliisa Road

The roads in this lot consist of the following road sections that are situated within the Murchison
Falls Conservation Area (MFCA) which is Uganda’s largest protected area.
I. Tangi Junction- Paraa- Buliisa (52km) and
II. Wanseko- Bugungo (23km)

These roads are being developed to ease the exploration and production of oil in the region. The
region is also one of the main tourist attractions in Uganda due to an abundance of wildlife therefore
the roads will also boost income from tourism in the region.

I. Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa project road

provides access to the following locations among others: Murchison Falls National Park through
Tangi Gate, Bugungu Gate and Chobe; Various lodging facilities such as Chobe Safari Lodge, Paraa
Lodge, Mubako River Lodge, Yebo Safari camp and Nile safari camp; Oil exploration wells namely
Ngege, Kasameme and Kigogole 1; Bugungu airstrip; Bugungu Total camp and Tullow Oil camp.

The first section starts at Tangi junction along the Gulu- Arua Road, about 2km from the Pakwach
Bridge. The road traverses three districts namely Nwoya, Paraa and Buliisa where it terminates. The
84km road section is a gravel road with a width that varies from about 4 to 10m, drain to drain. The
terrain is generally rolling and the existing alignment is bendy in certain sections, which will make it
difficult for long, heavy vehicles to maneuver.

The main features along this section are;

Pakwach- Paraa link


The road link between Pakwach and Paraa is 23km long and is currently being maintained by the
Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA). It is smooth and well maintained but also very narrow and cannot
accommodate two passing vehicles. Fortunately, the road is not congested, and the narrowness
does not in any way exacerbate traffic along the road. However, with the commencement of major
oil works and activities, the road will certainly become busy and congested. It should therefore be

Page | 3
China Communication Construction Company Design and Build and Build of Package 1: Paraa (Kisanja)-Park
(CCCC) Junction and Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa Roads Upgrading
Project (147Km)

upgraded and widened to accommodate the anticipated traffic when major oil works commence.

Tangi Gate Bridge


Tangi Gate Bridge is a single span 24m long steel bridge along the Pakwach-Paraa link, located about
1km from the Tangi junction where the road starts. It is located at GPS 02º26.870’, E031º30.770’ where
it crosses the Tangi River. Crocodiles are prevalent in the Tangi River which is surrounded by a swamp
that forms part of the Murchison Falls National Park. The Contractor will replace the existing Tangi
Gate Bridge with a new structure.

Emmi Bridge
Emmi Bridge is a double span reinforced concrete bridge bearing on a stone masonry pier and
abutments. It is located at GPS 02º17.382’, 031º34.050’ on Emmi River, about 21km from Tangi Gate
Bridge and 1.2km from Paraa, along the Pakwach- Paraa link. The existing bridge is 5.5m wide with a
span of 22m, including a pier to pier span of 10m. The piers and abutment are old and the bridge is
not structurally sound, therefore, the Contractor is expected to design and construct a new bridge at
this location.

Paraa Ferry Crossing and proposed Paraa Bridge


The Paraa ferry crossing is located over the Victoria Nile and is run by the Uganda Wildlife Authority
(UWA) as it is located within the Murchison Falls National Park. It provides access between the
northern and southern sides of the national park. It has been proposed that a bridge be constructed
across the river to replace the ferry. The Contractor will provide costs for design and construction of
a bridge at the most suitable crossing point, mindful of the upstream and downstream ecological
constraints that may exist. This may include realignment of the project road on the approaches to
the proposed bridge.

The width of the river at the current crossing is about 412m from bank to bank and may be increased
to about 520m to enable a better and cost effective bridge to be designed and constructed.

Paraa– Buliisa link


This link starts on the southern bank of River Nile at the Paraa ferry crossing and ends in Buliisa town.
This link constitutes two smaller links i.e. Paraa – Park junction and Park junction – Buliisa which are

4|Page
China Communication Construction Company Design and Build and Build of Package 1: Paraa (Kisanja)-Park
(CCCC) Junction and Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa Roads Upgrading
Project (147Km)

about 8km and 21km long respectively. About 20km of this link is located within the Murchison Falls
National Park.

II. Wanseko- Bugungo


This section starts at a junction off the Paraa- Buliisa road at Wanseko and connects to Ngwedo
village in Buliisa Sub County, along Buliisa- Wanseko Road. It is 23km long.

The site reconnaissance using the odometer of a vehicle revealed that the distances were;
i) 12.5 km for Kibambura -Ndandamire
ii) 57 km for Buliisa- Paraa-Buliisa

The Tangi Junction- Paraa-Buliisa section starts at the Tangi Junction along the Gulu- Arua Highway
and traverses three districts namely Nwoya, Paraa and Buliisa where it terminates. The road
traverses Murchison falls national park and has one ferry crossing at Paara. The Kibambura-
Ndandamire section starts at Kibambura at a junction off the Paara – Buliisa road and terminates at
Ndandamire along Buliisa- Wanseko road.

3.3 Rotary Drilling

Four Boreholes were drilled using a portable drilling rig (XY-200) at selected locations as shown in
the Site Aerial view, Figure 2. The rig cutting bits of 90 and 110 mm diameters, were used to bore
through strata consisting of Clay soils mixed with sand, silt and gravel, to recover disturbed and
undisturbed soil samples at various depths. Drilling machine used consists of rods of known length
onto which core barrel for recovering soil samples and SPT mould are attached, driving engine to
drive the rods into the ground, SPT hammer and many other smaller components. Recovered soil
samples were taken for further examination by subjecting them to laboratory testing. The samples
extracted from the subsurface were packed in core boxes for visual examination and logged into the
8|Page

(CCCC) (Kisanja)-Park Junction and Tangi Junction-Paraa-Buliisa
Roads Upgrading Project (147Km)

Borehole logs as shown in Appendix D .


3.4 Standard Penetration Tests (SPT)

The Standard Penetration Tests at the site was performed in the four Boreholes using a standard
split-barrel sampler and in accordance with BS 1377: Part 9: 1990. The test was conducted to
determine the SPT resistances (N-values) that were used to determine the Allowable Bearing
Capacity based on empirical relationships developed by Terzaghi (1967), Meyerhof (1974) and Bowles
(1982). In addition, the test was used to provide an indication of the density and consistency of the
different soil layers encountered.
3.5 Profiling and Logging

Profiling and logging was conducted for each Borehole during drilling exercise and the information
recorded in the Borehole logs. The subsurface conditions and any other relevant parameters and
information were recorded as shown in the Borehole logs, Appendix B.
3.6 Disturbed Soil Sampling

Soils recovered from the Boreholes were visually inspected, identified, labeled and taken to the
laboratory for testing. A representative sample at each depth was selected to cater for the entire
vertical profile. Testing was done according to profile.
3.7 Undisturbed Soil Sampling

Samples were recovered in their natural state by driving cylindrical core samplers of 100 mm in
diameter into the ground at a pre-determined depth interval by 0.5m in each Borehole. The core
sampler was detached from the driving rods after which it was sealed in two polythene bags for both
proper handling and preservation of the insitu conditions until testing. The main objective of
retrieving undisturbed samples was to conduct shear strength and consolidation tests as per BS 1377:
part 7 and ASTM D 2435 respectively.
3.8 Ground Water Table

Ground water table was not encountered in the 4No. Boreholes.

4 GROUND CONDITIONS

4.1 Introduction

The general soil profile encountered in all the four Boreholes consisted of a mixture of CLAY and
SANDY soils mixed with silts and gravel at various depths. The details of the ground soil conditions
encountered in the profiles of all the boreholes are described on the Borehole Logs, Appendix D.
Some information pertaining to the definitions of the terminology and symbols used in the borehole
logs are provided in the explanation notes, Appendix E for reference. The following is the brief
description of the soil types encountered.
4.2 Top Soil

The top soil is made up of loose organic Clayey peat with roots at Waiga bridge while at Wairingo
bridge it was mainly clayey SAND. It is blackish in colour with thickness ranging between 0-500mm,
though at some locations it was observed to go up to 500mm.

4.2.1 Clay
Clay soil was the second dominant soil type encountered within all the boreholes. It was low plastic
and was found combined with Sand in minute quantities to form different clay combinations; Sandy
lean Clay at 0.0-1.5m,18-19.5m and 21.0-25.0m in BH01 while in BH 02, it was at 12.0-15.0m and 19.5-
25.0m. in BH03 it was only at 5.8-7.0m while in BH 04 it was at1.5-3.0m and 8.0-11.0m.

Lean Clay with Sand was only encountered in BH04 at 1.5-3.0m

4.2.2 Sand
Sand was the dominant soil type to be encountered in all the four boreholes and its matrix was held
together with Clay. Clayey Sand was encountered in;

• BH01 at 1.5-3.0m,6.0-7.5,13.5-18.0m and 19.5-21.0m while in

• BH 02 at 0.5-5.0m and at 15.0-19.5m.

4.3 Site Geology

The geology of the Waiga and Wairingo bridges underlain by sedimentary complex formation of
Neogene group belonging to Albertine suite formed during the phanerozoic era(542Ma) according
to the geology mapNA-36-6 updated in June 2012. These are characterized by the presence of
Alluvium, sand, silt and Gravel as shown in Appendix A, Figure 03.

4.4 Site Seismicity

The proposed site lies within zone 1 of the Seismic Zoning of Uganda as shown by the Seismic Map of
Uganda, Figure 4. This seismic zoning implies that the site has low risk of earthquake occurrence
since its located far away from the Rift valley where there are earthquake epicenters.

From Table 4 above it is observed that only;


• 38% of the tested samples had more than 50% passing in sieve 200 in BH01
• 36% had more than 50% passing on sieve 200 in BH02
• 12.5% had more than 50% passing on sieve 200 in BH03
• 66.7% had more than 50% passing on sieve 200 in BH04
Therefore, soils were predominantly coarse with the exception of BH04.

The plasticity chart below summarizes the Atterberg conditions of the tested Soils in Table 4 above.
According to it, most of the samples consisted of low plastic-non-plastic clays whose liquid limits
were below 50 % except BH04 at 11-14.0m; and plastic Indices 5>PI<33% as seen in the plasticity charts
1-4 presented below.

From Table 4 above, Plasticity Indices ranged between non-plastic(e.g BH02 5.0-11) to 25% as seen
implying that the soils are of non-medium plasticity(Geotechnical engineering handbook,pg 7).
Natural moisture contents ranged from moist to wet as seen from the randomly sampled NMC’s in
Appendix D; summary of classification tests.

The graphs 1-4 below shows the grading of the soil matrix for the samples tested. Its observed that

5.2 Chemical Tests

Chemical tests were conducted on soil samples at selected depth in all the four (4 Nos.) boreholes to
assess the concentration of sulphates and chlorides, as well as their acidity or alkalinity. Naturally,
steel in foundations has a tendency of corrosion to convert into its natural state (iron) under low PH
environments. Concrete however provides a passivating oxide layer of PH 12-13 around the steel
reinforcement, which prevents steel corrosion to about 0.1µm per year (an insignificant level).
Exposure of the concrete to soluble chlorides, sulphates and acids results in the destruction of the
oxide layer thus exposing the steel to carrion 1000 times more.

Soluble chloride invasion on concrete is the major cause of corrosion of steel reinforcement. The
chlorides penetrate the oxide layer leaving the steel vulnerable. Table 16 below shows chloride
contents that are enough to cause steel corrosion for different concrete members.

Sulfates can attack concrete by reacting with hydrated compounds in the hardened cement. These
reactions can induce sufficient pressure to disrupt the cement paste, resulting in loss of cohesion and
strength. Resistance to sulfates can best be achieved by using a low water-to-cement ratio and
cement with a limited amount of tricalcium aluminates. As outlined in ASTM C 150, Type II cement
contains less than 8% C3A, and Type V cement contains less than 5%. Cements meeting the ASTM
C1157 requirements of Type MS cement (moderate sulfate resistant) and Type HS cement (high
sulfate resistant) can also be used to provide sulfate resistance, as well as moderate sulfate-resistant
cements per ASTM C 595. Table 06 below shows sulphate contents and recommended sulphate
resistant cement types for expected concrete strengths.

Low PH exposes concrete to acid attack. The acids react with Calcium Hydroxide of Portland Cement,
soluble calcium products are then leached away by aqueous solutions (ACI 201 1992). PH values ≤3
pose severe causes of concrete deterioration.

Results of Sulphate test and pH test are presented in table 07 below.

5.3 Bearing Capacity Results

Bearing Capacity, for the investigated subsurface soil, was evaluated from Standard Penetration Test
and Direct Shear Test (Shear Box).

5.3.1 Standard Penetration Test results


Appendix E contains the various correction factors for different drilling conditions and general
information pertaining to the procedure of SPT correction. The Factors in Table 17, 18, 19 & 20;
Appendix D were adopted for correction of field SPT N – Values.

The drilling equipment used for the project was a Donut Hammer type with a free fall release
mechanism (Energy ration = 60), SPT sample was without Liner (Liner Correction factor = 1),
Borehole diameters varied between 6-120mm (borehole diameter correction factor = 1). The
consistency of the soils encountered were also determined from the corrected SPT N-values in
accordance with tables 15 and 16 presented in Appendix C.

Results of SPT test are presented in Table 5 below including both field and corrected SPT N-values.
The SPT test was conducted a 1.5m, in all the boreholes.

Note that while conducting SPT refusal was established when the field N-values were >50 resulting in
less than 150mm penetration of the SPT split sampler. However, more information pertaining to
refusal conditions is provided in Explanatory Notes; Appendix E. From Table 5 above consistency of
the drilled cohesive soils ranged between firm and hard soils while for cohesionless soils ranged from
loose to dense.

5.3.2 Bearing Capacity of Soils based on Field SPT N- Values using Terzaghi’s approach
The maximum pressures the soils are capable of resisting were estimated from the field SPT N-values
using empirical relations. For purposes of computing the soil’s Bearing Capacity, the following
assumptions were made:

1. The Peck et al (1967) relationship between N-values and unconfined compressive


strength is valid (Published by Terzaghi and peck 1967);
2. The maximum allowable settlement in cohesive soils is 25mm;
3. The design N-values are derived from the statistical average of all values within a
depth zone equal to the footing width below the founding depth.

The following equations were used to evaluate the bearing capacity

The following equations were used to evaluate the bearing capacity

From table 09, Allowable Bearing Capacity values obtained using Terzaghi’s approach ranged
between 50.0kpa at 3.0m(BH01) and 740Kpa at 21.0m in BH02 with the exception of the abnormally
low highlighted values. All the other values fall within the range mentioned above.

5.3.3 Bearing Capacity of Soils based on Field SPT N- Values using Meyerhof’s approach
Meyerhof (1974) devised a formula for estimation of allowable Bearing Capacity based on corrected
SPT N-values as shown below:
B+0.3 2
The allowable bearing capacity, qnp = 0.32N′′ R D2 � � Sa kN/m2
B
Df
Depth reduction factor, R D = 1 + 0.33x B
≤ 1.33

Where, N” = Corrected SPT N-Value


Sa = Allowable Settlement (25mm)
Df = Foundation depth (m)
B = Foundation Breadth (m)
Results of Bearing Capacity estimates using Meyerhof’s approach are presented in Table 7 below.

From Table 12 above its observed that the Allowable Bearing Capacity values obtained using Bowles’
approach were the highest, values obtained using Meyerhof’s approach were intermediate, while
values obtained using Terzaghi’s approach were lowest.

5.3.6 Bearing Capacity from Direct Shear test


The Shear Strength test was conducted on Undisturbed samples from four (4 No.) boreholes drilled
to obtain the shear parameters of Coefficient of Cohesion, C and Angle of Internal Friction (Φ) which
are used to establish the soil Bearing Capacity based on Terzaghi’s models of soil failure in shallow
foundations.
Terzaghi (1943) stated that either a General or a Local Shear failure causes foundation failure due to
Bearing Capacity. Both General and Local Shear Failure criterion were adopted in the analysis as
shown in table 13 and table 14 respectively. The allowable bearing capacity defines the plastic zone
beyond which a failure plane will develop within the soil mass just below the foundation and may
extend to the surface in the case of General Shear Failure.

5.4 Consolidation Test Results

The consolidation test was carried out on the four (4No.) undisturbed samples which were carefully
selected from two boreholes as shown in the testing plan table 3. Consolidation parameters of the
obtained undisturbed samples were determined using the one-dimensional consolidation apparatus
in accordance to ASTM D 2435. With the coefficient of compressibility and coefficient of
consolidation (Cv), possible foundation settlement can be determined for given foundation

dimensions. Typical ranges for volume compressibility and coefficient of consolidation are presented
in tables 21 and 22 in Appendix D for comparison. A summary of the consolidation test results is
presented in table 15 below with detailed results provided in Appendix C; Soil Test Reports.

Table 15: Results for consolidation.

From table 12 above, it is observed that;


• All the Soils are over consolidated since the OCR is greater than unity. The analysis is done
by observation of the nature of the void-pressure curve in Appendix D. (Lambe and
William,1979).
• Basing on the maximum and minimum coefficient of consolidation of 14.27m2/year (BH 03
at 5.5m) and 19.23 m2/year (BH 01 at 15.0m) obtained in all the boreholes; the rate of
consolidation is classified as high according to Table 22 in appendix D.
• All samples had a low -medium volume compressibility value ranging between 0.066
m2/MN and 0.303 m2/MN which is characterized by boulderly Clay and lacustrine Clay
according to Table 21 in Appendix D.

6 CONCLUSIONS

• The top soil is made up of soft organic Clayey peat with roots at Waiga bridge while
at Wairingo bridge it was mainly clayey SAND. It is blackish in colour with thickness
ranging between 0-500mm.
• Clay soil was the second dominant soil type encountered within all the boreholes. It
was low plastic and was found combined with Sand in minute quantities to form
different clay combinations; Sandy lean Clay at 0.0-1.5m,18-19.5m and 21.0-25.0m in
BH01 while in BH 02, it was at 12.0-15.0m and 19.5-25.0m. in BH03 it was only at 5.8-
7.0m while in BH 04 it was at1.5-3.0m and 8.0-11.0m

• Soils were generally neutral to slightly acidic. Sulphate contents were in Trace
amounts (<200mg/l).

• Sand was the dominant soil type to be encountered in all the four boreholes and its
matrix was held together with Clay.

• The proposed site lies within zone 1 of the seismic zoning which implies that the site
has low risk of earthquake occurrence.
• The soils were predominantly coarse with the exception of BH04.
• Natural moisture contents ranged from moist to wet

• consistency of cohesive soils ranged between firm and hard while for cohesionless
soils ranged from loose to dense.

• Allowable Bearing Capacity values obtained using Terzaghi’s approach ranged


between 50.0kpa at 3.0m(BH01) and 740Kpa at 21.0m in BH02 with the exception of
the abnormally low highlighted values. All the other values fall within the range
mentioned above.
• Allowable Bearing Capacity values obtained using Bowles’ approach were the
highest, values obtained using Meyerhof’s approach were intermediate, while values
obtained using Terzaghi’s approach were lowest
• All the Soils are over consolidated since the OCR is greater than unity.

(BH 03 at 5.5m) and 19.23 m2/year (BH 01 at 15.0m) obtained in all the boreholes; the
rate of consolidation is classified as high.
• All samples had a low -medium volume compressibility value ranging between 0.066

7 RECOMMENDATION

• The choice of the method of bearing capacity and founding depth is entirely
dependent on the specification requirements, design loadings and the choice of the
designer.
• Since the investigated depth did not contain a founding rock combined with
consolidation behavior of the soil strata (over consolidated soils) and depending on
the design loadings, the Design Engineer should determine the founding depth for
the bridge footings.

1. Soil description
The borehole logs are a representation of the soil profile as determined during the field investigations.
The materials analysis and soil conditions were only established at the borehole locations at the time of
drilling implying that the soil conditions represented in the borehole logs are not fully representative of
the subsurface conditions elsewhere across the site.
The soil types likely to be encountered during drilling are described in table 13 and 14 below based on
particle size and percentage of fines:
Table 13: Particle size classification.

Material Grain Size


Boulders Larger than 300mm
Cobbles 75mm to 300mm
Coarse gravel 19mm to 75mm
Fine gravel 5mm to 19mm

Coarse sand 2mm to 5mm


Medium sand 0.425mm to 2mm
Fine sand 0.075mm to 0.425mm
Silt and Clay Smaller than 0.075mm

2. Description of Minor Soil Type

These are identified by weight of minor soil component as shown in the table below:
Table 14: Description of Minor soil type.

Percent Descriptor
35 to 50 And
20 to 35 some
10 to 20 little

4. Consistency of fine grained soil

The following terms in table 16 are used relative to unconfined strength in Kpa and SPT N values for
blows per 300mm for fine grained soils.
Table 16: Relative Consistency of Fine grained Soils

Description Unconfined Compressive Strength (Kpa) N value

Very soft Less than 25 Less than 2

FIELD TESTING PROCEDURES


Standard Penetration Test (SPT)
The standard penetration test, developed around 1927, is currently the most popular and economical
means to obtain subsurface information (both on land and offshore). It is estimated that 85 to 90
percent of conventional foundation design in North and South America is made using the SPT. This test is
also widely used in other geographic regions. The method has been standardized as ASTM D 1586 since
1958 with periodic revisions to date. The test consists of the following:
1. Driving the standard split-barrel sampler of dimensions shown in Fig. 3-5a a distance of460 mm into
the soil at the bottom of the boring.
2. Counting the number of blows to drive the sampler the last two 150 mm distances (total = 300 mm)
to obtain the N number.
3. Using a 63.5-kg driving mass (or hammer) falling "free" from a height of 760 mm.
The exposed drill rod is referenced with three chalk marks 150 mm apart, and the guide rod is marked at
760 mm (for manual hammers). The assemblage is then seated on the soil in the borehole (after cleaning
it of loose cuttings).
The sampler is driven a distance of 150 mm to seat it on undisturbed soil, with this blow count being
recorded (unless the system mass sinks the sampler so no count can be made). The sum of the blow
counts for the next two 150-mm increments is used as the penetration count unless the last increment
cannot be completed. In this case the sum of the first two 150-mm penetrations is recorded as N.
The boring log shows refusal and the test is halted if:
• 50 blows are required for any 150-mm increment.
• 100 blows are obtained (to drive the required 300 mm).
• 10 successive blows produce no advance.
When the full test depth cannot be obtained, the boring log will show a ratio as
70/100 or 50/100indicating that 70 (or 50) blows resulted in a penetration of 100 mm. Excessive
equipment wear, as well as greatly reduced daily drilling meterage, results when blow counts are high.
Standardization of refusal at 100 blows allows all drilling organizations to standardize costs so that
higher blow counts result in a negotiation for a higher cost/length of boring or a requirement for some
type of coring operation. The SPT test was conducted in all two (2 No.) boreholes.
Based on field observations it appears reasonable to standardize the field standard penetration number
based on the input driving energy and its dissipation around the sampler into the surrounding soil, or

In addition, for granular soils, Peck et al (1974) (Das, p341) introduced the correction, CN, due to the
overburden pressure to the energy and equipment corrected value N’60 as:

(N’) 60 = CN N’60, where,

For 𝜌0′≤ 25Kpa,

CN = 1.45,

For 𝜌0′ ≥ 25Kpa,

𝜌0′ = Effective Overburden pressure = (γ-g) d (Kpa)

d = depth of testing (m)

γ = unit weight of the soil at the time of testing

Besides obtaining soil samples, standard penetration tests provide several useful correlations. For exa
mple, the consistency of clayey soils can often be estimated from the standard penetration number, N6

LABORATORY TESTING PROCEDURES


Natural Moisture Content (NMC)
This test was conducted in accordance to BS 1377: Part 2:1990. By quartering, a representative sample
was taken and its net wet weight was recorded. The sample was oven dried at a temperature of 105° C -
110° C for 24 hours and the dry weight recorded. The moisture content was obtained from the amount
of water lost expressed as a percentage of the mass of the dry soil, where the amount of water lost
was given by the difference between the net wet mass and the dry mass.
Liquid Limit (LL)
The Liquid limit test was conducted in accordance to BS 1377: Part 2:1990. A cone penetrometer fitted
with an automatic timing device that ensures 5 second penetration under an 80g load was used. An
oven-dried representative sample was pounded and sieved through a 425µmm BS test sieve. 200g of
the sample passing the 425µmm BS test sieve was mixed thoroughly with distilled water and the
mixture was left to saturate for 24hours in an air tight container. The sample was then re-mixed
thoroughly to achieve penetrations in the range from 15mm to 25mm. After each penetration, the soil
moisture content was determined and recorded. Finally, a moisture content penetration curve was
drawn from which the moisture content at 20mm penetration was taken as the liquid limit.
Plastic Limit (PL) and Plasticity Index (PI)
The plastic limit test was conducted in accordance to BS 1377: Part 2:1990. The same procedure
followed to prepare the samples for the liquid limit test was followed to prepare samples for this test.
The sample was rolled into a ball of soil paste using hands. Thereafter, the sample was rolled further to
form threads of about 3mm. The plastic limit was determined as the moisture content at which the
threads developed transverse cracks.
The plasticity index is the difference between the liquid limit and the plastic limit. The plasticity index
was plotted against the liquid limit on the plasticity chart to classify cohesive soils.
Linear shrinkage
The linear shrinkage test was conducted in accordance to BS 1377: Part 2:1990. Likewise, the sample for
conducting the linear shrinkage test was prepared following the procedure explained above when
preparing the sample for liquid limit. The mould used for linear shrinkage was oiled so that the sample
does not stick to the sides of the mould. Later the mould was filled with the moist sample. The sample
was then oven dried at temperatures of 105°C to 110°C for 24 hours. The length of the sample was
measured and recorded. The linear shrinkage was expressed as the difference in the length between
the wet and the dried sample.

The Sieve analysis test was conducted in accordance to BS 1377: Part 2: 1990. Representative samples
were air dried and washed through a 75µmm BS test sieve. The samples retained on the 75µmm sieve
were sieved through a series of other BS test sieves i.e. 75mm, 53mm, 35.7mm, 28mm, 20mm, 14mm,
10mm, 6.3mm, 5mm, 2.36mm, 2.0mm, 1.18mm, 0.6mm, 0.425mm, 0.3mm, 0.15mm and 0.075mm. The
weight of soil retained on each sieve was recorded. The weights retained on each sieve were
expressed as a percentage of the original weight of the sample and these results were used to plot a
curve of the percentage of the sample passing through a given test sieve against the sieve aperture.
Direct shear test
The test was conducted on Undisturbed samples in accordance to BS 1377 part 7 1990. The purpose of
the test is to obtain Shear Strength parameters; Cohesion (c’, KN/m2) and Angle of Friction (φ’,
Degrees) which are required for the calculation/determination of the Ultimate Bearing Capacity of the
soils for the indicated founding depth. With local shear criteria, these parameters are modified and the
modified parameters used to calculate the bearing capacity. The soil sample confined inside the upper
and lower rigid boxes was subjected to the normal load N. This load was then applied by the yoke
which is placed on the loading cap and by putting weight on the hanger the specimen loaded axially.
The Shear Force T shears the sample; this force was applied by the motorized drive unit and measured
with help of the load ring. The sample was sheared in the unconsolidated drained conditions.
Consolidation test
Consolidation parameters of the undisturbed samples were determined using the one-dimensional
consolidation apparatus in accordance to BS 1377-5: 1990. This provides an understanding of the
probable reduction in volume as a result of excess pore water pressure dissipation of the soil underlying
the proposed site. Three soil specimens of size 75mm diameter and 20mm in thickness from each
respective sample were prepared using Standard Proctor test. The prepared specimens were subjected
to a loading sequence of 20, 40, 80,160, 320 and 2560kN/m2. Readings of the compression gauge were
taken at suitable intervals of time. A plot of voids ratio as ordinate against applied pressure on a
logarithmic scale as abscissa was made for each sample and slope of the graph represents the coefficient
of compressibility (Cc).
The tables 21 and 22 below show the interpretation of the ranges of coefficient of volume Compressibility
(Mv) and Coefficient of Consolidation (Cv) respectively.
