1. INTRODUCTION
This report on proposed 132 KV Damak Kabeli Transmission Line Tower at Chainages km
19375 (Location No 10/2), 6121 (Location No AP - 4/0) and 5097 (Location No 3/5) discusses
the details of soil investigation works and foundation recommendations for its proposed site at
the stated locations. This work has been carried as per the information provided by R K Das
D.G.M (Projects), Jaguar Overseas (P) Ltd New Delhi. Pile capacity has been analyzed at
locations 10/2 and 3/5 the chainages of which are stated above. Open foundation has been
designed at location AP 4/0, chainage km 6121. The investigation work included literature
review, test pit excavation/ augur boring; SPT Test, Laboratory Tests and Analysis of various test
results to predict the allowable bearing capacity of sub-soil at the proposed Transmission Tower
Foundation and recommend the most suitable foundation compatible to the prevailing soil
conditions. The details of the investigation work as well as that of findings of the analysis carried
out are presented in the following paragraphs.

2. LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Geology
The literature study has been confined mostly in the geology and seismicity of the study area.
Geologically the study area lies in Terai and Midland between Mahabharat range in the south and
higher Himalaya in the north. Some portion of the study area also lies in the siwalik formation. The
geo-morphological units of the area consist of low lying hills, river basins and tectonic basins. The
width is approximately 30 km and extends from east to west of Nepal in the form of a strip. The
main rock formations are purple phyllite, amphibolite, dolomite, sandstone, mudstone, quartzite
and gneiss. In most areas rock phyllite lies at the top followed by amphibollite. In some areas rocks
above amphibollite comprise dolomite, quartzite and gneiss.

2.2 Seismicity
The Characteristics of seismic ground vibration expected at any locations depends upon the
magnitude of earthquake, its depth of focus, distance from the epicenter, characteristics of path
through the seismic waves travel and the soil strata on which the structure stand. The random
earthquake ground motions, which cause structures to vibrate, can be resolved into three mutually
perpendicular directions. The predominant direction of ground vibration is usually horizontal.

Nepal lies in the zone which is highly vulnerable in the event earthquake. As per the study
conducted by JICA 2002, at any time major earthquakes of intensity over VII in Modified Marcalli
Intensity (MMI) could trigger in the country. The intensity could go up to IX in the study area. This
intensity is equivalent to 7.5 in moment scale.

3. FIELD WORK
3.1 General
The fieldwork included Rotary Drilling, Sampling, Standard Penetration Test and Water Table
Monitoring. The details of the field works carried out at the proposed site are presented in Table 1.

3.2 Boring
The field investigation was carried out by using Rotary Drilling. The drilling holes were logged
continuously in the field for all the locations. The logs included visual classification of soil,
records of SPT values and position of ground water table. The field record of logs were updated
after completion of laboratory investigation works wherever was necessary. The updated logs for
the tower foundation sites are presented in Appendix A.

3.3 Photographs
A set of color photographs was taken to show the record of ground investigation work. The
photographs cover the location of borehole, drilling of hole and pits, sample recovery and soil
samples.

3.4 Sampling
Before any disturbed samples were taken, the bore holes were washed clean to flush any loose
disturbed soil particles deposited during the boring operation. The samples obtained in the split
spoon barrel of SPT tube during SPT tests were preserved as representative disturbed samples.
The disturbed samples recovered were placed in airtight doubled 0.5 mm thick transparent plastic
bags, labeled properly for identification and finally sealed to avoid any loss of moisture. Only
then the samples were transportation to the laboratory for further investigation. Due to presence
of sandy soil undisturbed samples could not be taken.

3.5 Field Test.
Standard Penetration Test (SPT) was the field test conducted at the site. A standard split barrel
sampler was used in the test. The SPT tests were conducted in all the pits and augur holes of the
site at depth interval of every 1 m. The driving of split-spoon was recorded at every 150 mm of
penetration till the total depth of penetration of 450 mm was reached. The number of blows
recorded for the first 150 mm of penetration is disregarded. The number of blows recorded for
the last two 150 mm intervals are added and expressed as SPT N-value. The records of the SPT
values obtained are presented in logs in Appendix A. The recorded SPT values are without any
correction of overburden pressure and water table. The test was conducted without using liner.
The maximum rod length used was 13.50 m. The SPT value obtained in the field are corrected
for overburden pressure.

3.6 Ground Water Table Monitoring
The position of ground water table was measured at each borehole. The water level observed in
the bore holes at the end of a 24 hours long period after completion of boring work was taken as
the position of ground water table. The depth to ground water table from ground level for all the
boreholes are given in the borehole logs presented in the Appendix A.

6. FOUNDATION ANALYSIS
6.1 General
Before selecting a given type of foundation vis--vis the particular set of conditions prevailing at
a site, the probable performance of the foundation must be judged with respect to two types of
potentially unsatisfactory behavior. In the first place, the bearing capacity of the foundation soil
must be sufficient enough to ensure that the induced total or differential settlement is not
detrimental. Secondly, the bearing capacity should be such that excessive shear strain, which
could lead to shear failure, does not occur.
6.2 Depth of Foundation
The depth of foundation is governed mainly factors such as scour depth and the nature of the
subsoil strata to place the foundation, basement requirement and other environmental factors.
Isolated pad foundation is the common type of foundation for transmission tower. The locations
at the stated towers lie at the river crossing. There could be possibility scour to the tower
foundation. As a result the foundation should be placed at least 2 m depth below the depth of
maximum scour. At the moment hydrological data are not available, the maximum depth of
scour has been assumed. Table 4 shown below shows the details of data assumed and types of
foundation adopted.

6.3 Computation of Bearing Capacity
6. 3.1 General
Open and pile foundation have been analyzed at these locations. The bearing capacity analysis
has been made using both shear failure and settlement criteria for open foundation at location AP
4/0. The analysis was carried out based on the results of corrected SPT Value. The depth
adopted for open foundation is 5 m from river bed. Terzaghis method was used to determine the
bearing capacity from shear failure criteria. The equation suggested by Peck et al. (1974) has
been used to determine bearing capacity on the basis of settlement criteria. The SPT value
correction is shown in Table 5.

At locations 10/2 and 3/5 pile foundations have been analyzed. The diameter of pile adopted is
900 mm as per the email by R. K. Das. The foundation details are shown in Table 4 above.

8. DISCUSSIONS
The soil types existing at the site comprise mainly of granular type. A detailed description of soil
types existing at the site is provided in Table 3 in Section 5. The locations of towers lie at the river
crossing. There could be possibility scour to the tower foundation. As a result the foundation
should be placed at least 2 m depth below the depth of maximum scour. At the moment
hydrological data are not available, the maximum depth of scour has been assumed. The bearing
capacity analysis for open has been made using both shear failure and settlement criteria. The
bearing capacity analysis of sandy soil was carried out based on the results of SPT Value.
Terzaghis method was used to determine the bearing capacity from shear failure criteria. The
equation suggested by Peck et al. (1974) has been used to determine bearing capacity on the basis
of settlement criteria. The depths taken in the analysis is 5 m from river bed for open foundation.
For this depth, the widths adopted are 4 m and 5 m.

At locations 10/2 and 3/5 pile foundations have been analyzed. The diameter of pile adopted is
900 mm as per the email by R. K. Das. The depth of pile taken in the analysis is 9 m from the
river bed.

9. RECOMMENDATIONS
On the basis of foundation analysis the following recommendations have been made.
A detailed description of soil types existing at the line foundation site is
provided in Table 3 in Section 5.
The foundation analyzed is an isolated foundation at chainage km 6121 and
location AP 4/0.
The foundation analyzed is a bored and cast in place foundation at chainages km
19375 (location 10/2) and 5097 (location 3/5) respectively.
The depths adopted for open foundation is 5 m from river bed.
For each depth the widths adopted are 4 and 5 m for open foundation.
The diameter for pile foundation taken in the analysis is 900 mm and depth
taken is 9 m from river bed.
The recommended bearing capacities are given in Table 8.
The foundation designer need not follow strictly the depth and dimensions
adopted in the analysis presented in this report. He is free to select any other
dimensions for depth and width depending upon the actual loads and moments
to be transmitted to the foundation soil. At this juncture it is worth mentioning
that the allowable bearing capacity depends on many variables such as allowable
settlement, type of foundation, size and depth of foundation, importance of
structure, cost of project etc. Therefore, on the basis of soil index properties data
and engineering properties data provided in this report (i.e. data furnished in
test result summary sheet Table 2 and bore hole logs presented in
Appendix A), the foundation designer is free to refine the calculations wherever
he feels necessary.
