5 . 449RNalanda University INTRODUCTION: This report deals with Geotechnical investigation at the site for proposed construction of new Campus of Nalanda University which consist of various blocks of multi storied buildings, roads and other infrastructural facilities at Rajgir, Bihar. It is proposed to construct up to four storied buildings. The work of geotechnical investigation has been awarded to us, wide work order No. NU/9 dated 94 from the office of Nalanda University, Council for Social Development building, Lodhi Estate New Delhi. The report includes the recommendations on type, depth and safe allowable bearing capacity for the safe and strong foundation for the proposed building structures and California Bearing ratio for construction of roads.. SCOPE OF WORK: For the proposed construction of buildings structures, it is required to determine the safe allowable bearing capacity together with necessary engineering characteristics of underlying soil strata. Since the safe bearing capacity of soils must be evaluated on the considerations covering shear failure and permissible settlement of subsoil strata as per IS: 6498, IS: 9498, IS: 89 (parti)96, and IS 9 (part, section ) hence the scope of work is as follows:. Boring five numbers of boreholes of 5mm diameter within the proposed area of construction up to a maximum depth of. meter.. Conducting the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) at every metre interval or at change of strata in all the boreholes.. Collecting disturbed soil samples at every metre interval or at change of strata from the boreholes.

6 .4 449RNalanda University Collecting undisturbed soil samples from the boreholes at.5 metre interval or change of strata..5 Transporting all the disturbed and undisturbed soil samples collected during the field investigation for further examination and testing to our soil mechanics laboratory at Delhi..6 Conducting the laboratory test on all the soil samples collected during field investigation for determination of their engineering characteristics.. Compilation of field and laboratory test results, working out the safe allowable bearing capacity and preparing the report including detailed recommendations and necessary precautions.. PROJECT LOCATION: The site for proposed construction of new campus of Nalanda University is situated at Rajgir, Bihar. The site is located about km from the main road of Bihar Sarif to Nalanda 4. OBSERVATIONS AT SITE: The following observations have been made at the site: Effects of saltpetre and termites have not been observed at the site. 4. The site is metre below in reference with the adjacent road. 4. The site is not free from flooding and it may accumulate rain water on it.. FIELD INVESTIGATION: The field investigation work at this site was carried out from October th; 4 to October. 6th; 4. The following investigation work was done: 5.. Five numbers of boreholes of diameter 5 mm were made within the proposed layout of the various buildings and ancillary structures. The boreholes were progressed using manually operated augers and further advanced by use of mechanically operated shell casing to the desired depth. Where caving of the

7 449RNalanda University borehole occurred, casing was used to keep the borehole stable. All boreholes were made up to the depth of. meter. The locations of boreholes have been reported in BOREHOLES LOCATION PLAN in Appendix A. 5.. Standard Penetration Tests were conducted as per IS: 98 at metre interval in all the bore holes. The number of blows for each 5 cm of penetration was recorded. The blows required to penetrate the initial 5 cm of the split spoon for seating the sampler is ignored due to the possible presence of loose materials or cuttings from the drilling operation. The cumulative number of blows required to penetrate the balance cm of the 45 cm split spoon sampler is termed the SPT value or the N value. The results have been reported in table of Appendix B under the title SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS.

8 RNalanda University Disturbed soil samples were collected from the boreholes at an interval of metre. In the entire bore holes. Disturbed samples were collected from the split spoon after conducting SPT. The samples were preserved in transparent polythene bags. The results have been reported in table of Appendix B under the title SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS Undisturbed soil samples were collected from the boreholes at. metre,.5 metre, 5. metre, 8. metre,. meter, 4. meter,. meter &. meter depth. Undisturbed samples were collected by attaching a mm diameter thin walled Shelby tubes and driving the sampler using a 6.5 kg hammer in accordance with IS:986. The tubes were sealed with wax at both ends. The results have been reported in table of Appendix B under the title SUMMARY OF TEST RESULTS. 5.5 Undisturbed soil samples for performing California Bearing Ratio test have been collected at locations marked as CBR to CBR9, in accordance with IS (part6)98.
