9 6) DISCUSSION & RECOMMENDATIONS: 6.1) The general stratification of this site was comprise of filling/ dump material at the top followed by clayey sandy soil up to certain depth. This layer was underlying alternate layer of highly weathered and weathered yellowish Mica Schist up to the depth of investigation. 6.2) Seepage of water was observed up to 6.00m depth and this factor should be considered at design stage. 6.3) At all locations for allowable bearing capacity calculation and other for recommendations the depth was considered from original ground level excluding the depth of top dump material. 6.4) All the dump material should be removed before execution of work. In no case foundation should be rested on filling /dump material. 6.5) For major structure Raft foundation shall be provided at all test locations and rested at min. 7.5m depth from OGL. At this depth recommended allowable bearing capacity of T/m 2 and T/m 2 may be considered with 50mm & 25mm permissible settlement respectively. Below PCC a min.150mm thick well graded sand layer shall be provided. For light structure isolated foundation may be provided at all test locations and it shall be rested at 3.00m to 4.50m depth from OGL. At these depths recommended allowable bearing capacity of 9.00 T/m 2 and T/m 2 may be considered with 50mm permissible settlement respectively. At foundation level of same structure different stratification (Soft/hard) may encountered hence there are chances of differential settlement. So foundation shall be designed considering this aspect with lower permissible settlement. 6.6) At all locations, foundation level strata should be verified / confirmed before laying foundation. 6.7) Rock samples were partially soluble when immersed in water for 24hrs. 6.8) Well graded strong cohesionless granular material with good drainage properties & high compressive strength should be utilised for back filling and it should be compacted in layers to minimum 95% of maximum dry density. Back filling shall not be compacted with free water on the surface. 6.9) For design of flexible pavement CBR value of 6% at 1.74 g/cm 3 MDD with 14.40% OMC ( Heavy compaction) may be considered at 0.50m depth from OGL. 6.10) Result of chemical analysis of soil and water are presented Annexure VI of this report.
