PROJECT JALAN ABC (Example)

SCOPE OF SI WORKS

1. OBJECTIVES

This project involves in construction of a new R5 highway of about 30km through rolling to hilly
terrains with some localized swamps and 3 bridges. The alignment traverses through sedimentary shale
and granitic formations. Preliminary geological and terrain evaluation studies show that potential slope
instability areas are at KM5, KM9 and KM 12.

The main objectives of SI are:

- To determine generalised subsoil profile for the proposed road alignment (earthwork planning
& rock estimation)

- To identify unstable soil formation and water table (water bearing zones and free water table
depth) in cut areas (colluvium, faulter or sheared zones) for stability analysis & pavement or
subsoil drainage design

- To obtain subsoil properties and water table for embankment design & necessary ground
treatment

- To determine suitability of fill and borrow sources

- To obtain subsoil properties for foundation design for structures (3 bridges & several major
culverts & walls)

2. SI METHODS & LOCATIONS

- Rotary boring (NW & HW casings) - 33 Nos/location

- Rotary boring (air foam drilling technique) - 10 Nos/location


(for Mazier samples) at cut areas.

- Trial pits & bulk samples/block samples - 10 locations


(1.5mx1.5mx2.0m deep) plus 5 JKR probes/pit

- JKR Probes - 200 locations


(Until 12m deep or until 400 blows/300mm)

- Hand Augers - 20 Nos

- Seismic survey (reflection method ) - 30 lines at 8 locations

Locations of the above are shown in Drg. Nos A100


Works Spec: JKR Std. Spec. for SI Works (1980).

3. CRITERIA OF TERMINATING BOREHOLES

3.1 Cut Areas

Boreholes should be terminated after 3 consecutive SPT values exceeding 50 or after 3m rock
coring or the max depth (about 3m below formation level) specified below, whichever comes
first:

 BH21, BH28, BH35, BH40 - Max depth = 15m


 BH4, BH30, BH38 - Max depth = 25m
 BH15, BH31, BH25, BH26, BH39 - Max depth = 30m
 BH11, BH24, BH33, BH42 - Max depth = 35m
 BH41 - Max depth = 40m
