9 3.0 FIELD INVESTIGATION The equipment, jackup barge Fugro GANGA along with accessories, tools and relevant numbers of manpower required to undertake marine geotechnical investigation work were mobilized to site on November 15, 01. The marine geotechnical investigation work was commenced on November 17, 01 and was completed dated December 14, 01 under constant supervision of client s representatives. Vicinity map showing the investigated area is presented in Illustrations on Plate 1. The CAD drawing provided by client showing the indicative port layout plan, location of marine boreholes and PCPT along with coordinates provides the basis to identify the locations of marine boreholes. A list of the borehole segregation as per the proposed development plans has been provided by the client s representative. The summary of the field activities so far completed is presented below in Table 1.

The coordinates of the borehole locations were entered in the DGPS. DGPS provides bearing and distance of that borehole location (i.e. Target) from antenna location. The boat along with Jack-up Barge (JUB) was navigated towards the borehole (Target) location accordingly. When the distance becomes zero, marking buoy was dropped at that point and after the marking of the buoy, DGPS system was shifted from boat to JUB to fix the JUB position. The same procedure was repeated for positioning of each borehole locations at the project site. Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 10

10 3. Positioning of Modular Jack-up Barge System Once the drilling location is reached, the legs are jacked down to the seabed, preloaded securely drive them into the sea bottom, and all the four legs are jacked down. Since the legs have been preloaded and will not penetrate the seabed further, this jacking down of the legs has the effect of raising the jacking mechanism, which is attached to the barge and the drilling unit. In this way, the barge with drilling unit are slowly raised above the water up to a predetermined height, so that the wave, tidal and current loading acts only on the relatively small legs, not the bulky barge. Sufficient air gap was maintained well above the expected wave heights, which needs to be justified from tidal charts. Tide charts give the information on low and high tides and facilitate in maintaining minimum air gap. After positioning the JUB at the proposed boreholes location, the coordinates were checked using DGPS and are designated as achieved coordinates; with a tolerance of +/- 5.0m with reference to the given coordinates of each boreholes. 3.3 Boring / Drilling The boring works at the marine locations were carried out by deploying modular Jack-up barges Fugro GANGA with leg length of 30.0m. A hydraulic drilling rig with triplex pump, accessories and tools for boring in all type of soil / rock were mounted on these Jack-up barges. The boreholes and jack up were positioned at specified locations using Leica 40MX DGPS. Modular jack up was shifted from one borehole location to other using tug boat. The boring operations were carried out by hydraulic rotary drilling method using Jack-up platform. Casing was advanced in the sea bed up to hard strata to facilitate the drilling operations. Clear water was used as the flushing medium. Standard Penetration Tests were performed at specified intervals or at every change of strata. Sampling comprised collection of disturbed samples from SPT split spoon sampler and shoe and undisturbed soil samples of suitable diameter. On reaching the rock the rock strata, boreholes were advanced using diamond core drilling method and rock core samples were obtained using triple tube core barrels. The boreholes were terminated as per the termination criteria issued by clients or as per the instruction of Engineer In-charge. The quantitative description of natural fracture state of rock masses are indicated using a number of indices as determined from the borehole cores. TCR is the percentage ratio of core recovered (whether solid, intact with full diameter, or non-intact) to the total length of core run. SCR is the percentage ratio of solid core recovered to the total length of the core run. RQD is a quantitative index based on core recovery procedure that incorporates only Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 11

11 those pieces of core which are 100mm or more in length. It is the total length of solid core pieces, each greater than 100mm between natural fractures, expressed as a percentage of the total length of core run. It is also a measure of drill core quality and it disregards the influence of orientation, continuity, joint thickness and gauge. The drilling accessories and tools used were all in conformity with BS The sub-seabed lithostratigraphic conditions have been described in detail in the geotechnical borehole logs presented in Appendix A. 3.4 Standard Penetration Tests Standard penetration tests were carried out using a split spoon sampler complete with a drive shoe and drive head fitted with a non-return valve. The basis of the test consists of dropping a hammer of mass 63.5 kg on to a drive head from a height of 750 mm. The number of such blows (N) necessary to achieve a penetration of the split spoon sampler by 300 mm (after its penetration under gravity and below the seating drive) is regarded as the penetration resistance. The blow counts for each 150 mm penetration were recorded. Small disturbed samples of soil were obtained from the split spoon sampler after completion of the tests. The number of blows and standard penetration test value has been described in detail in the geotechnical borehole logs presented in Appendix A. Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 1

13 5.0 SITE CONDITIONS 5.1 Information on the Project Area The project site is located within the Gulf of Kutch, outside Kandla creek, about 17km on west of existing facilities of the Kandla Port within Kandla creek. Tuna Port is a port-cum-town in Anjar Taluka of Kutch District of Gujarat State of India. The Gulf of Kutch is an inlet of the Arabian Sea along the west coast of India, in the state of Gujarat, and renowned for extreme daily tides. The maximum depth of Gulf of Kutch is 401 feet (1 m). It is about 99 miles in length and is famous for the coral reefs surrounding thirty two islands. It divides Rann of Kutch and the Kathiawar peninsula regions of Gujarat. The Rukmavati River empties into the Arabian Sea nearby. The Gulf of Kutch is well connected by rail and roadways to major places in India. The nearest airport is at Kandla and rail-head is Gandhidham. 5. Geo-technology of the Site The site geotechnical investigation has been accomplished by carrying out a total of 10 marine boreholes as per the requirement of technical specification of the contract. The boreholes were distributed along the Approach and Jetty. The generalized sub-seabed profile has been prepared showing the variation in soil and rock till borehole termination depths below seabed level. These profiles are presented in Illustrations on Plate thru 3. The plasticity chart prepared based on the laboratory test results are presented in Illustrations on Plate 4. The sub-seabed lithostratigraphic conditions, classification and engineering characteristics have been described in detail in the geotechnical borehole logs presented in Appendix A. Based on the review of the marine boreholes the entire site can be characterized in to three units. UNIT I comprises predominately very soft to soft silty CLAY / CLAY with occasional thin to thick layers of silty SAND / clayey silty SAND. UNIT II comprises weak to moderately weak highly weathered to completely weathered Amygdaloidal BASALT / BASALT. All the marine boreholes as detailed in Table 1 were terminated in Unit III, which comprises moderately strong to strong moderately weathered to slightly weathered Amygdaloidal BASALT / BASALT. The maximum termination depth of the marine borehole was 50.50m below existing seabed level Geotechnical Design Parameters The generalized sub-seabed profile and design parameter adopted for the project is presented in coming sections. Field and laboratory test data for the project provided the basis for the analysis presented in this report. Based on the study and established relations, Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 14

15 6.0 ENGINEERING DISCUSSIONS AND FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS 6.1 Basis of the Foundation Selection Engineering Discussions As per the information received from client s representative it is understood that large diameter pile foundation system is to be adopted for the construction of proposed marine facilities comprising Approach Trestle and Jetty. Piles find application in foundations to transfer loads from a structure to competent subsurface strata having adequate load-bearing capacity. The load transfer mechanism of pile to the surrounding ground is complicated and is not yet fully understood. Broadly, piles transfer axial loads either substantially by friction along its shaft and/or by the end bearing. Looking at the sub-seabed soil conditions as presented in Illustrations on Plates thru 3, as discussed in Section 5 above and as per the client s requirement, end bearing piles socketed in weathered/soft rock foundation system has been presented in coming sections for the proposed construction of Approach Trestle and Jetty. It may be noted that, the installation piles demands careful control on position, alignment and depth, and involve specialized skill and experience. Pile foundations should designed in such a way that load from structure can be transmitted to the sub-surface with adequate factor of safety against shear failure of sub-surface and without causing differential or total settlement, which may cause structural damage or functional distress under permanent/ transient loading. The pile shaft should have adequate structural capacity to withstand loads and moments which are to be transmitted to the subsoil. For the requirement of cement, steel and concrete, appropriate consultation with the structural engineer is advised. It is recommended to follow the requirements of workmanship as mentioned in IS 911 (Part 1/Sec ): Pile Foundation Recommendations 6..1 Piles in Hard Rock When crushing strength of the rock is more than characteristic strength of pile concrete, the rock should be deemed as hard rock. Piles resting directly on hard rock may be loaded to their safe structural capacity. 6.. Piles in Weathered/Soft Rock Piles founded in weathered/soft rock different empirical approaches are used to arrive at the socket length necessary for utilizing the full structural capacity of pile. Since it is difficult to Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 16

16 collect cores in weathered rock/soft rocks, method suggested by Cole and Stroud using SPT N values is more widely used. It has been mentioned in IS 911 (Part 1, Section ) that if the Standard Penetration Values is more the 60, the stratum is to be treated as weathered rock rather than soil. The allowable load on the pile by this approach can be arrived using following equation; Q a = c u1 N c πb 4F s + αc u πbl F s Where, c u1 - Shear strength of rock below the base of pile, kpa N c - Bearing capacity factor (9) F s - Factor of safety (3) α (recommended value) c u - Average shear strength of rock in the socketed length of pile, kpa B L - Minimum diameter of pile shaft, m - Socket length of pile Fugro Report No.: FGTL/AKBTPL/ED/45/1/REV-4 17
