EXTENT OF INVESTIGATION WORKS General It is expected that the underground is built up of loose to medium dense alluvium deposits. Prior to the commencement of any investigation works the Contractor shall visit the investigation site in order to make himself familiar with the conditions on site. The Contractor shall conduct necessary field investigation work, laboratory testing, perform engineering analyses and write detailed recommendations in the form of a report in accordance with relevant standards and this specification. This includes gaining access to the drilling sites and performing any preparations necessary. The correctness of each investigation location has to be confirmed by the Client representative before mobilization to location. The Contractor is responsible for any site clearing and work platforms that may be required for accessing the investigation locations. He is also responsible for reinstatement of the investigation sites. In this regard the Contractor shall keep a photo-documentation of all investigation sites and access roads including photos prior investigation works and after reinstatement. All investigation points shall be surveyed with an accuracy of +/- 0,01 m in location and elevation. The Contractor is responsible for all logistics involved with any investigation activities including personnel transport, storage, equipment movements and supplies. Uniformity of substrata may permit the elimination of some investigations. Non-uniformity of substrata may warrant the addition or relocation of investigations. The Contractor shall propose modifications to program to maximize its engineering value to the project prior to the commencement of investigations. If during commencement of

the fieldwork, prevailing geotechnical conditions indicate to the Contractor that the proposed work requires modification, he shall recommend work necessary to provide the data required for construction. The Contractor shall submit such recommendations to the Client. Should the Client agree, the scope shall be altered accordingly and price agreed, prior to the commencement of the revised scope. Particular emphasis shall be placed by the Contractor on: The number of drillings, depths and locations The number and types of samples, tests etc. taken in boreholes and trial pits An estimate of the time and costs required to complete the Site Investigation.

Any change of the investigation program requires prior written approval by the Client. All investigation works shall be carried out with modern and fully functional equipment. The Contractor shall keep oil binders at every investigation site in case of damage. Leaking oil-, fuel and hydraulic pipes have to be repaired immediately in order to prevent environmental pollution. The Client reserves the right to intervene if the Contractor is performing to the Clients dissatisfaction or in an unsafe manner. The Client can refuse the deployment of equipment if it does not meet the requested technical standards. The Contractor shall replace defective equipment as soon as possible. Furthermore he shall take all necessary measures in order to make up the lost time. 5.2 5.2.1 Field Investigations Drilling A total number of 37 rotational core drillings with continuous coring with a total length of about 900 m shall be carried out: 6 drillings of 35 m depth 24 drillings of 25 m depth 2 drillings of 20 m depth 5 drillings of 10 m.

The applied method shall be rotary core drilling using air flush and front casing to avoid borehole collaps. Continuous coring has to be performed using a double tube core barrel with a minimum inner diameter of 100 mm. Due to the presence of non-cohesive soils, an appropriate core catcher has to be applied in order to allow core recovery in cohesionless soils such as sand and gravel. In the case that large boulders or solid rock are encountered during the drillings, water flushing may be used in order to penetrate boulders and solid rock.

A minimum sample diameter of 100 mm at any drilling depth has to be guaranteed In case of technical difficulties during production of the borehole which hinder reaching the minimum diameter. The required minimum diameter may be undershot with approval by the Client. Water flushing may not be used for drilling in soil and weathered rock in order to preserve the natural moisture content and the sample quality. If massive rock or huge boulders are encountered the use of water flushing is allowed. Drilling rig, drilling method and drilling diameter have to be chosen in a way that all requirements specified in this document and the standards are guaranteed. All boreholes have to be backfilled immediately after all drilling works and in-situ testing is completed. Backfill works have to be carried out carefully to avoid settlements. The backfill material shall be adequate soil material available in the vicinity of the site. The Contractor is responsible for the provision and transport of the material. As an option, some boreholes may require backfill using cement based grout or Bentonite pellets (Compactonit). The Contractor is responsible for the provision and transport of the material. Due to the amount of drillings, Contractor shall be ready to employ more than one drill rig for simultaneous drilling. 6.2.3 Storage of Core Samples All recovered drilling cores shall be stored in wooden core boxes with a length of approximately 1 m. The cores shall be covered by plastic foil sleeves to maintain the natural moisture content. Sections where samples for laboratory testing were taken shall be marked on the core box.
