Field Work/Field Tests

Boring through any type of soil upto a a depth of about 65m below ground level at an intervel of 1.0mtr or change of strata as per relevant IS, collecting samples and conducting standard penetration tests. Collecting disturbed and undisturbed samples to find out the shear parameters, grain size analysis, index properties, natural moisture content, bulk density, etc as per relevent IS code complete all as specified and directed.

Laboratory Tests

Conducting tests on disturbed and undisturbed samples collected to find out the shear parameters, grain size analysis,index properties, natural moisture content, bulk density, consolidation test and chemical tests etc. as per relevent IS code (IS 2720 (Part I) -1983) and detailed result showing at relevant calculations, inferences, indices and parameters shall be given in the soil report Disturbed soil. (a) Sieve analysis and grain size distribution and hydrometer test (b) atterberg limit. (c) Natural moisture content (d) Particle size analysis test, (e) Bulk density (dry density) Un disturbed soil. a) Natural moisture content b) Bulk density c) Specific gravity d) Free swell index and swelling properties of soil e) Organic matter in soil if any f) Consolidation test (Compressed index value) g) Triaxial compression test and determination of shear parameter(C& ϕtest)as per relevant IS h) Harmful salt (complete investigation as already ref) i)Ground water table (Maximum and min levels of ground water in the area with source of information. & Ground water table during the investigation

Report and Recommendations

Submitting 6 copies of complete report consisting of each and every detail of locations, borehole profiles and cross sections, description of soil strata, laboratory and field test results, comments and recommendations.The reports shall be got vetted from any IIT/ NIT/ leading Govt Engineering college.

Plate load Test for finding K Value

Mobilization and conducting the test. Setting up of loading platform, plate hydraulic jack and settlement measurement devices as per IS:1888 and loading upto the required load using aggregate to conduct the test. For conducting plate load test to determine the bearing capacity and load/settlement characteristics of soil st shallow depth by loading a plate and levelled steel plate kept at the desired depth and measuring the settlement under diffrent loads until a desired settlement takes place or failure occurs conform to IS:1888
