In general the rates quoted in the Bill of Quantities for an item shall include for all elements of work in connection with that item as required in accordance with this specification and the Standards referred to in Clause 3.1. ‘ Boreholes Method and diameter The method of advancement and the diameter of a borehole shall be such that the boring can be completed and logged to the scheduled depth, samples of the specified diameter can be obtained, in-situ testing can be carried out, and instrumentation installed as specified in the contract. The following methods may be employed for advancement of a borehole unless otherwise stated in Schedule 1: . Rory Grilling; shell and auger boring; wash boring, and percussion drilling (in rock uly) 28s wok 4.2 43 @ Gi) 44 45 46 47 w@ ‘Supporting sides of boreholes All boreholes shall be supported with casing, and/or drilling mud; unless the borehole is shallow and is in stiff soils. Casing shall not be driven below any level at which sampling or testing is to be carried out until the latter has been completed. Addition of water to the borehole In general, water shall not be used to advance a borehole above the water table. ‘Addition of water in such cases may be permitted with the approval of the Engineer when boring in dry granular soils or hard laterites or hard stiff clays. ‘When the borehole penetrates below the water table, and disturbance of the soils is likely due to artesian pressures, a positive hydraulic head shall be maintained in the borehole. Rotary drilling Rotary drilling shall be permitted in all cases to advance the borehole. ‘The drilling fluid shall normally be clean water. However drilling muds may also be used. Shell and Auger boring ‘Shell and auger boring shall be permitted if the Contractor can demonstrate that the validity of in-situ testing and extraction of undisturbed samples is not compromised. ‘This method of boring can be used in sandy soils, lateritic soils, residual soils and completely weathered rock. However, special attention is required when boring in soft clays and peats. Wash boring ‘Wash boring shall be permitted in all soils provided that care is taken not to unduly disturb the soil at bottom of the borehole especially before in-situ testing or sampling. ‘Any obstruction encountered during boring should be brought to the attention of the If an obstruction in the form of bed rock, boulder, hard layer such as sandstone, concrete, brick, log, or other object is encountered which prevents further progress in boring, the Contractor shall first attempt to break through the obstruction either by chiselling, or by rotary coring methods to drill through and obtain cores of the obstruction, (iii) If the drilling shows that the obstruction is bed rock, the rotary core drilling shall be continued to a depth of 3m or as required by the Engineer to prove the continuity and engineering characteristics of the formation. (iv) If the obstruction is shown to be a boulder or other object underlain by soil, the Contractor shall consult and agree with the Engineer on the use of one of the following lines of action. (@) chisel out the cored borehole through the obstruction to allow boring, sampling, and in-situ testing to be carried out beneath the obstruction. (b) continue the advancement of the borehole by rotary drilling (©) _ abandon the borehole, and drill one additional borehole nearby for which the cost will be borne by the Client. 4.8 Backfilling ‘Upon completion of each borehole, the Contractor shall backfill the hole as the casing is withdrawn, The soil backfilled into the borehole shall be placed in layers, each successive layer being tamped by the boring tools. The surface shall be reinstated to the original. 5. Pits and trenches 5.1 Trial pits and trenches Trial pits and trenches shall be excavated by hand to a maximum depth of 1.2 m or by machine to the required depth as directed by the Engineer to enable visual examination and sampling from outside the pit or trench as required.

Groundwater shall be controlled by pumping from a sump to permit continuous work. 5.6 Backfilling Backfilling of the pits and trenches shall be carried out as soon as practicable. The backfilling shall be compacted in such a manner using excavation plant or as specified in Schedule 1 as to minimise subsequent depiession of the ground surface. Any surplus excavated material shall’ be heaped proud over the site and covered with top soil unless otherwise instructed by the Engineer. 5.7 Protection to pits and trenches left open Where pits and trenches are required to be left open for 2 period, the Contractor shall provide fencing together with all necessary lighting and signing. Precautions shall be taken fo protect the pits and trenches from the adverse effects of weather during this period. ‘Support and strutting for the sides of the pit shall be provided to prevent the collapse of the sides. 5.8 Cost of Works Cost of all works in Section 5 shall be included in the unit rates for excavation of pits and trenches. 6. Soil Sampling ~ 6.1 Undisturbed soil samples Unless otherwise indicated in Schedule 1, the method of obtaining undisturbed samples from boreholes should be as follows; (@ use of 75 mm diameter Piston samplers for peat and soft clays.
