Geotechnical Investigation report for Proposed Structure at TPS No.26, Survey no.
847, FP No. 277 at Village Makarba, Tal. Vejalpur, Di. Ahmedabad
Introduction
The report is presented herewith analyses based on thorough study of the geotechnical
investigation results.
A complete geotechnical investigation was undertaken by us to obtain the required
subsurface information to study and to indicate the nature and behavior of soil under the
application of load of proposed Structure at TPS No.26, Survey no. 847, FP No. 277 at
Village Makarba, Tal. Vejalpur, Di. Ahmedabad.
For foundation analysis of the structure on the site, it is necessary to determine the soil
profile of the site and to know physical properties and strength characteristics of soil at
various depths. For this purpose,
The owner of structure entrusted the geotechnical investigation to us. The following points
were decided.
1. No. Bore hole – 1
2. Depth of Bore hole – 25.0m
3. Standard penetration tests at regular interval
4. Collection of Undisturbed samples and disturbed samples at regular interval
5. To find physical properties and strength characteristics of undisturbed samples
6. To find physical properties of disturbed samples
7. To locate ground water table, if any, and tests on water samples
8. Interpretation of results, analysis and recommendations.
Based on the above points the detailed Geotechnical Investigation Program included the
following:
(A) Field Investigation
1. Drilling of bore hole
2. Collection of soil samples ( Disturbed and Undisturbed )
3. Conducting Standard Penetration Test
(C) Recommendations
Based on above investigations, the results are to be obtained. The findings would be based
on interpretation of results, analysis and computations as per relevant Indian standards.

2.2 Sampling
2.2.1 Disturbed samples
Disturbed samples were collected during boring and from the split spoon sampler. The
samples recovered were logged, labeled and placed in polyethylene bags and sent to
laboratory for testing.
2.2.2 Undisturbed samples
Undisturbed soil samples were collected in thin walled Shelby tubes as per IS 2132. The
samples were sealed with wax, labeled and transported to our laboratory at Gota,
Ahmedabad for testing.
2.2.3 Standard penetration test
The standard penetration tests were conduct in accordance with IS: 2131-1981. The test
results show, N Value, the blow counts of last 30 cm penetration of split spoon sampler
with 63.5 kg hammer falling from 75 cm height.

the structures in project are not changed due to the actions of man or nature.
Professional judgments presented in this report are based on evaluations of the
technical information gathered, understanding of the proposed construction, and
general experience in the geotechnical field. We have performed according to generally
accepted geotechnical engineering practices followed in the project area at the time the
services were provided. No warranty is expressed or implied. The report is issued with
the understanding that the owner and client choose the risk they decide to incur by the
expenditures involved in the engineering and construction. The findings and
recommendations presented in this report are based upon soil conditions inferred from
site explorations, interpolation of the soil conditions between exploration locations, and
extrapolation of these conditions throughout the proposed site area. The extent of
investigation as well as specific exploration locations were dictated by the clients. The
findings and recommendations are further based on the assumption that the subsurface
conditions do not deviate appreciably from those reported and those assumed. The
potential for encountering conditions different from those assumed can never be
discounted. If different subsurface conditions are encountered if any, must be brought
to our attention before execution & in a timely manner so that the need for revised
recommendations can be evaluated. In the event of changes in design loads or
structural characteristics or in location of the structure, clients should review its design
based on our recommendation and their applicability to the revision he made in a timely
manner.

Notes :
1) The factor of safety of 2.5 is considered.
2) The depth of foundation is considered from the NGL at the time of exploration.
3) Calculations are considering the effect of water table at 7.5 m.
4) Basement upto 7.5 m depth from NGL has been considered for calculations. The effective overburden pressure has been considered for soil between basement bottom and foundation
bottom.
