The document discusses how seismic waves from earthquakes travel and cause shaking of the ground. There are two main types of seismic waves - body waves and surface waves. Body waves include P-waves and S-waves, while surface waves include Love waves and Rayleigh waves. S-waves and surface waves cause the most damage to structures through their vertical and horizontal shaking motions. Seismic waves are measured using seismographs, which contain sensors to detect the ground motions and recorders to document the measurements.
Seismic analysis of multi storey reinforced concrete buildings frame”ankialok
The opinion that designing new buildings to be Earthquake resistant will cause substantial additional costs is still among the constructional professionals. In a country of moderate seismicity adequate seismic resistance of new buildings may be achieved at no or no significant additional cost however the expenditure needed to ensure adequate seismic resistance may depend strongly on the approach selected during the conceptual design phase and the relevant design method. Regarding the conceptual design phase early collaboration between the architect and civil engineering is crucial.

The project is done as a course requirement for undergraduate degree in May 2013. The degree in pursuit was "Bachelor of Technology in Civil Engineering" in National Institute of Technology in Tiruchirappalli (INDIA). The authors were in final year of the study during the making of the project.
IRJET- Static Analysis and Design of Retaining Wall with and without Shelve u...IRJET Journal
This document summarizes the static analysis and design of retaining walls with and without shelves using software. It finds that providing pressure relief shelves on the backfill side of a retaining wall reduces the total earth pressure, wall thickness, and makes for a more economical design. Analytical results from the conventional method and StaadPro software show close agreement. Introducing shelves reduces eccentricity, pressure intensity, active earth pressure force, and increases safety against sliding and overturning compared to walls without shelves. Savings in construction costs of 15-25% are possible using shelves for high retaining walls.

Muravin The fundamentals of Structural Health Monitoring using Acoustic Emis...mboria
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is an emerging field of modern engineering that deals with diagnosis and monitoring of structures during their operation. Increasing requirements for safety, development of tools and criteria for condition based maintenance (CBM), cost reduction are all driving development of SHM methods in different industries. The primary goal of SHM is detection, identification, assessment and monitoring of flaws or faults/conditions that affect or may affect in a future safety or performance of structures. SHM combines elements of non-destructive testing and evaluation, condition/process monitoring, statistical pattern recognition and physical modeling. Acoustic emission method uniquely fits to the concept of SHM due to its capabilities to examine, monitor structures and assess structural integrity during their normal operation.
In this work, the fundamental definitions and principles of application of Acoustic Emission as a method of SHM are elaborated. This includes:
• Recommended terminology and definitions of SHM by the AE method.
• Outline of recommended process of AE SHM.
• Fundamental assumptions and principals regarding development of new SHM procedures, selection of equipment and methods of data acquisition and analysis, diagnosis, monitoring and prediction by AE SHM.
The developed principals provide an outline for systematic and standard development of new SHM applications based on Acoustic Emission method.
The document summarizes seismic damages from the 2001 Bhuj earthquake in India. It killed over 13,000 people and destroyed nearly 400,000 homes. Common failures of reinforced concrete structures included soft stories, floating columns, strong column weak beam configurations, mass and plan irregularities, poor construction materials and techniques, and pounding between adjacent buildings. Soft story failures occurred particularly in buildings with large ground floor openings. Floating columns and strong column weak beam designs led to column failures. Masonry structures commonly experienced out-of-plane wall failures, in-plane shear failures, connection failures between walls and floors, diaphragm failures, and failures around wall openings.
Earthquakes effects on reinforced concrete buildingsAnoop Shrestha
Reinforced concrete buildings have become common in Nepal, particularly in urban areas. They consist of concrete reinforced with steel bars. During earthquakes, inertia forces develop at each floor level and accumulate downwards, resulting in higher forces at lower stories. Floor slabs are rigid elements that bend with beams but keep columns at the same level moving together. Masonry infill walls between columns and slabs resist horizontal movement but can crack under severe shaking. Proper design requires reinforcement on all faces of beams and columns to resist bending moment reversals from earthquakes. Columns must be stronger than beams, and foundations stronger than columns, to ensure the building can deform without collapse.

Earthquake and effect in building types precaution Aditya Sanyal
The document discusses earthquake resistant buildings. It begins by explaining the causes of earthquakes and how seismic waves travel and are measured. It then discusses plate tectonics theory and the different types of faults that cause earthquakes. The key aspects for earthquake resistant design are discussed - allowing structures to deform without collapsing through ductility and following seismic building codes. Masonry structures need horizontal bands and vertical reinforcement to perform well during quakes. Diaphragms and shear walls are the main lateral load resisting systems to transfer seismic forces safely to the ground.
The document provides information about slabs, beams, and stairs in construction. It defines slabs as flat horizontal elements that take transverse loading and transfer load to beams and columns. It describes various types of slabs and beams based on how they transfer loads and their support structures. It also defines stairs and provides technical terms used in stair construction. It describes different types of stairs based on their shape and materials used.
MODELLING OF TALL BUILDINGS WITH DIFFERENT SLAB CONDITIONSIjripublishers Ijri
Modelling of multi storied building as a frame structure which is supported by beams and columns is matter of course
now a days.
We consider the structural strength which is provided by the walls and slabs for the normal height of buildings. As the
building height go on increases the forces upon the building also increases with the addition of wind and seismic loads
which we call as dynamic loadings depending upon the different slab condition.
This document summarizes a presentation on seismic loading based on the Bangladesh National Building Code (BNBC) 2017. It discusses various types of loads that must be considered in structural design like dead, live, earthquake, and wind loads. It also describes lateral force resisting systems like shear walls, braced frames, and moment resistant frames. Plan and vertical irregularities are defined and the short column problem is explained. Design recommendations are provided for earthquake resistant buildings including structural simplicity and redundancy. Site classification is described based on soil properties.
Earthquake resistant building technologiesMyo Zin Aung
This document discusses various earthquake-resistant building technologies including:
1) Base isolation, which places structures on seismic bearings to isolate them from ground shaking.
2) Dampers like oil, viscous, and friction dampers that absorb seismic energy.
3) Tuned mass dampers and tuned liquid dampers that reduce vibrations through pendulums or liquid-filled tanks tuned to the building's natural frequency.
4) Innovations like yielding dampers, tuned mass dampers in skyscrapers, and "seismic invisibility cloaks" that deflect ground waves around structures.
The document provides guidance on loads and forces that should be considered when designing bridges, including:
1. Dead loads, live loads, dynamic loads, longitudinal forces, wind loads, centrifugal forces, horizontal water currents, buoyancy, earth pressures, temperature effects, and seismic loads.
2. It describes the various live load models (Class A, B, 70R, AA) and provides details on load intensity, wheel/track configuration, and load combinations.
3. Design recommendations are given for calculating impact factors, braking forces, wind loads, water current pressures, earth pressures, and seismic forces.
Earthquake resisting building structures are designed to minimize damage and loss of life from earthquakes. Passive systems like shear walls, bracing, and dampers are conventional techniques used to resist earthquake forces and absorb seismic energy. Active control systems integrate real-time processors to improve safety. Other earthquake resistant methods include using lightweight materials, rollers, base isolation, and avoiding weak structural elements. Properly designing buildings with features like thick slabs, cross walls, and symmetrical reinforcement can increase a building's ability to withstand earthquake forces.
This document provides a summary of base isolation as a seismic retrofitting technique. It defines base isolation as decoupling a structure from its foundation to protect it during earthquakes. It describes different types of base isolators using materials like rubber, lead and steel. Advantages include reducing structural damage, secondary damage, and maintenance costs. Disadvantages include challenges implementing for tall buildings. Examples of base isolated structures worldwide and in India are given. The document concludes with suggestions for government initiatives to develop this technology in India.
The document provides information about the course CV 725 Pile Foundations, including the instructor Dr. Babloo Chaudhary, course contents which cover various topics related to pile foundations, educational qualifications and experience of the instructor, intended learning outcomes, reference books, and timetable and evaluation plan.
This study was carried out to determine the subsurface lithology and possible depths for structural foundations in Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Port Harcourt in southern Nigeria using electrical resistivity techniques of VES and borehole logging. Model ABEM SAS 300B Terrameter aided by SAS 200 log meter were used for the data collection while version IPWIN2 software was used for the processing of the VES data. Six profiles of different locations, using maximum current electrode spread of 200 m and maximum potential electrode spread of 30 m, were used to obtain resistivity range of 1.2 to 4335 Ωm for three to four geoelectric sections covering depth interval of 19.8 m in the area. The borehole data covered a depth range of 0 to 20 m. The results show lithostratigraphy sequence of silty sands, laterite, grain and coarse sands with resistivity values of 721 to 4000 Ωm. These soils can support structures with foundations as close as 0.5 m to 3 m or more below the earth surface because laterite and sandy soils have the ability of a firm grasp of structural foundations as they do not retain moisture that will cause foundational deformation and shifting that may eventually lead to collapse of the structures.
GEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATTION OF PERCOLATION TANKIRJET Journal
1) A geological investigation of a percolation tank site in Karad, India was conducted which included surface surveys and subsurface investigation using resistivity methods.
2) The resistivity investigation found loose soil, sand, weathered basalt, and fractured rock between 0-25 meters depth, indicating potential for groundwater recharge from the percolation tank.
3) Below 10 meters depth, jointed hard rock and compact basalt were found, suggesting the initial purpose of the tank as a percolation tank was only partially fulfilled, as water may flow down through shallow layers instead of fully percolating. Excavating the reservoir deeper could improve percolation.

Evaluation of sub-soil geo-electric properties in a proposed power sub-statio...IJERA Editor
This document summarizes the results of an electrical resistivity survey conducted at a proposed power substation site in Rivers State, Nigeria. The survey found that the subsurface is characterized by two main geo-electric layers: an upper layer of lower resistivity lateritic to silty sands extending to depths of 2-3 meters, and a lower layer of higher resistivity fine to coarse sands and gravels forming the major aquifers in the area. Analysis showed that the subsoil falls within the non-corrosive class, indicating that subsurface electrical installations would pose minimal hazards with basic precautions.
The document discusses a geo-electrical imaging survey conducted in Edo State, Nigeria to characterize the subsurface geology for environmental and engineering studies. Resistivity data was collected along four lines using the Wenner array and inverted to produce 2D resistivity images. The images indicate resistivity increases with depth and identify three main layers - alluvium deposits from 0-20m underlain by laterite to 20m thick, underlain by sandstone and shale. Areas over 3500 ohm-m represent bedrock of gravel and granite, showing the area is suitable for construction. The study found no evidence of contamination or faults, but low conductivity suggests limited aquifer potential for water supply.

Mapping of Aquifer Contamination Using Geoelectric Methods at a Municipal Sol...iosrjce
This document summarizes a study that used geoelectric methods to map aquifer contamination from a municipal solid waste disposal site in Warri, Nigeria. Fourteen vertical electrical soundings and two-dimensional resistivity imaging were conducted across the dumpsite area. The results identified four subsurface layers and revealed low resistivity zones beneath the dumpsite, indicating contamination from leachate. Hydrogeochemical analysis confirmed elevated levels of contaminants in groundwater, showing the aquifer is being impacted by the dumpsite. The study demonstrated that geoelectric methods can effectively map dumpsite-induced groundwater contamination.

DETERMINATION OF STRENGTH OF SOIL ANDIT’S STABILITY USING ULTRASONIC PULSE VE...IRJET Journal
This document discusses using ultrasonic pulse velocity testing to determine the strength and stability of soil. Specifically, it examines using this non-destructive testing method on compacted soil samples with different stabilizer contents. The study analyzes how stabilizers like ground granulated blast furnace slag affect the engineering properties of clayey soil. It details the methodology of mixing soil with varying amounts of stabilizer, compacting the mixtures, and then conducting ultrasonic pulse velocity tests to measure the soil's density and modulus of elasticity. Graphs of density and velocity versus water content are used to evaluate the compaction characteristics and determine if ultrasonic testing can provide a fast alternative to standard compaction tests.
IRJET- Liquefaction Analysis for Kutch Region using Deterministic Insitu ...IRJET Journal
This document analyzes liquefaction potential in the Kutch region of India using deterministic in-situ analysis software. Standard penetration test data from 12 boreholes was used to identify liquefiable layers, calculate the factor of safety against liquefaction, and estimate potential vertical settlement and lateral displacement. The analysis found generally low blow counts in the top 7 meters, indicating shallow layers are liquefaction-prone. Accounting for liquefaction hazards is important for foundation design given Kutch's seismic activity, including a 2001 earthquake that caused widespread liquefaction failures.
This soil investigation report summarizes subsurface exploration and laboratory testing conducted for a proposed wind turbine foundation project. One borehole was drilled to a depth of 10 meters and standard penetration and sampling tests were performed. Undisturbed and disturbed soil samples were collected and subjected to various laboratory tests to determine physical and engineering properties. These included dry density, particle size analysis, Atterberg limits, shear strength, consolidation, and free swell tests. The results were analyzed to evaluate the subsurface conditions and provide a safe bearing capacity for foundation design of the wind turbine.
Geo Environmental Investigation of Abuad Dumpsite, Southwestern NigeriaIJERA Editor
Geoenvironmental study of ABUAD female dumpsite was conducted to investigate the suitability of its location
and potential impact on groundwater in the environment. Profiling and Vertical electrical sounding methods
were employed using Dipole - Dipole and Schlumberger configuration respectively. Five points were sounded
and one profile was occupied. Three heterogeneous subsurface lithologic units were established namely; lateritic
topsoil, clayey-sand, and, fresh basement. The curve types are simple H and HA. The topsoil and clayey-sand
materials are characterized with relatively low resistivity values while the fresh basement materials are
characterized with high resistivity values. The average resistivity and thickness values for the topsoil are
280.0Ωm and.2.3m respectively. Clayey-sand was encountered in all the locations with average resistivity and
thickness values of 32.0Ωm and 7.3m respectively. Basement is relatively shallow in the study area, it was
encountered in all the locations with an average resistivity and depth values to the top of basement of 674Ωm,
and 9.6m respectively. Overburden materials are relatively thin within the area with an average resistivity and
thickness values of 156Ωm, and 9.6m respectively. The overburden materials constituting the aquiferous units
within the study area are porous, vulnerable, and good paths for leachate migration. The relatively low
resistivity values within the clayey-sand layers (14 - 61Ωm) are suggestive of leachate intrusion, while relatively
high resistivity values of the impervious basement are due to their crystalline nature. The proximity of the
dumpsite to both the cafeteria and residential halls is a cause for concern.
This study used electrical resistivity imaging, seismic refraction tomography, and azimuthal resistivity soundings to assess an active open dump site in Kaduna, Nigeria. The objectives were to delineate potential leachate plumes and subsurface pathways that could transport contaminants. Results from resistivity imaging identified low resistivity zones (6-33 ohm-m) representing leachate plumes. Resistivity and seismic models also delineated fractures beneath the weathered basement layer that could act as pathways. Longitudinal conductance values of 0.02-0.1 mhos indicated poor protective capacity, allowing leachate to reach shallow aquifers. Azimuthal resistivity soundings at 45 m depth

Bore logs record details of geotechnical exploration activities like drilling boreholes. Data obtained from visual inspection of samples and geophysical measurements of the borehole are recorded in a standardized log spreadsheet. This data can include project details, soil classification, density, consistency, grain size, layers, water content, and photos. Geo-physical methods use physical properties like electrical conductivity to explore large areas quickly and non-invasively, with seismic refraction and electrical resistivity being widely used. Seismic refraction detects layer depths by measuring the travel time of shock waves, while electrical resistivity measures ground resistance by passing a current between electrodes.

2.0 Field Exploration and Laboratory Testing
Total of 25 nos. of 6m test borings were carried out using rotary drilling method at the site.
The locations of the borings were selected spread over the entire area. The borings were
advanced following IS 1892. Boring logs are appended in fig 2 to 26.
2.1 Sampling
2.1.1 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.
2.1.2 Undisturbed Samples
Undisturbed soil samples were collected in 90 mm diameter thin walled Shelby tubes.
Undisturbed samples were collected at an interval of around 3.0 m. Samples were collected
from each strata. The samples collected were sealed properly using wax, labeled and
transported to the laboratory. Undisturbed rock samples were collected in form of rock cores.
Undisturbed samples were collected continuously during drilling. The samples were
numbered and marked with the drill depth and drilling direction. Samples were packed in
core boxes and transported to the laboratory within 7 days of their collection at site.

4. 2.1.4 Geophysical Survey
In all geophysical surveys, Electrical Resistivity method is best and reliable to know
geological formation of the the area. All geological formations possess properties called
electrical resistivity when the current flows through them. Resistivity thus is defined as the
resistance offered by a unit cube of material to direct current flowing through it in a direction
perpendicular to two of its opposite faces. The numerical value of the resistivity is expressed
in ohm. m in general. Thus the electrical resistivity is principally based on the study of
resistance offered by the sub-surface formation to the flow of current. The study in turns
helps in evaluation of the characteristic of the sub surface layers in terms of electrical
resistivity. Vertical electrical soundings (VES) have been conducted by using resistivity
meter of I G I S make direct current in deployed during survey. Two metal stakes called
current electrodes into the sub surface transmit the current and the potential response is
observed by means two copper electrodes called potential electrodes.
Apparent resistivity is calculated from the equation:-
ρ = 2πSR
K = 2πS = Geometric factor for electrode spacing (winner method)
R = Resistance in Ohms
S = Spacing between adjacent electrodes in (m)
ρ = Resistivity in ohm.m.

5. 3.0 Site Surface and Geologic Conditions
3.1 Regional Geologic Conditions
A large tract of western and northwestern Rajasthan and Sindh, 640 km long and 160 km
wide, constitutes the “Thar Desert” (Krishnan, 1986). The origin of the Thar Desert is
attributed to a long, continued and extreme degree of aridity of the region, combined with the
sand drifting action of the south-west monsoon winds which sweep through Rajasthan for
several months of the year without precipitating any part of their contained moisture. In
general, the sands are poorly graded with an insignificant proportion of coarse and medium
sized sand grains.
3.2 Local Geologic Setting
The project site is located at elevations ranging between approximately 168 to 185 m above
mean sea level. The area is a nearly flat, shallow, south - east to north - west sloping
surface. As shown in the borings logs, soil encountered during our subsurface investigation
generally consisted of four generalized strata as given below:
Stratum-I : Fine sand & silty fine sand , upto 0 to 3 m
Stratum II : Cemented fine sand, between 3 to 6 m
3.3 Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater was not encountered up to 6 m depth during our subsurface investigation.
3.4 Geologic Hazards
3.4.1 General
Geologic and seismic hazards are those hazards that may impact a site due to the
surrounding geologic and seismic conditions. Geologic hazards include landslides, flooding
and erosion, subsidence, and poor soil conditions. Seismic hazards include phenomena that
occur during or soon after an earthquake, such as primary ground rupture, strong ground
shaking, liquefaction and seismically induced settlement.
The potential for these hazards to impact the site have been assessed based on
investigation and published data and it can be concluded that there is little to no potential for
landslides, subsidence, fault surface rupture, liquefaction, and seismic settlement. There is
no potential for flooding and erosion. Further, poor soil conditions may exist in form of
collapsible soil pockets and strong ground shaking is not denied. All identified geologic and
seismic hazards are considered less than significant. To the extent of the information
available for this investigation, geologic and seismic hazards do not appear to represent a
“fatal flaw” for the proposed development.
3.4.2 Landslides
The proposed project lies in the relatively flat-lying Plain, where landslides would not be
expected to occur. Therefore, landslides are not anticipated to pose a hazard to the
proposed project.
ST/02/11/776
Page no.3 of 73
6. 3.4.3 Flooding and Erosion
Flooding and the consequent erosion associated with flooding are those hazards that are the
result of concentrated flow of storm water during rains. Based on both our review of
published maps and on observations during our site work, site topography is relatively flat,
void of significant drainages or collection areas, and inclined gently toward the northeast at
average gradients. The expected rainfall in the area is very low, therefore, the potential for
flooding and erosion within the southern portion of the site is considered to be very
low.
3.4.4 Subsidence
The extraction of water or petroleum from sedimentary source rocks can cause the
permanent collapse of the pore space previously occupied by the removed fluid. The
compaction of subsurface sediments by fluid withdrawal will cause subsidence of the ground
surface overlying a pumped reservoir. If the volume of water or petroleum removed is
sufficiently great, the amount of resulting subsidence may be sufficient to damage nearby
engineered structures.
Significant quantities of water or petroleum are not being extracted beneath the area
occupied by the site. Subsidence is therefore not anticipated to pose a significant hazard
to the project site, barring such extraction in the future.
3.4.5 Poor Soil Conditions (Expansive, Collapsible, or Corrosive Soils)
Expansive soils are fine-grained soils (generally high plasticity clays) that can undergo a
significant increase in volume with an increase in water content and a significant decrease in
volume with a decrease in water content. Changes in the water content of a highly expansive
soil can result in severe distress to structures constructed on or against the soil.
As indicated on the boring logs such expansive soils were not encountered in the near
surface during our subsurface investigation.
Collapsible soils are those that undergo settlement upon wetting, even without the
application of additional load. The process of collapse with the addition of water is known as
hydro-compaction. Hydro-compaction occurs when water weakens or destroys the bonds
between soil particles and severely reduces the bearing capacity of the soil. Typical
collapsible soils are lightly colored, are low in plasticity and have relatively low densities.
Collapsible soils are typically associated with alluvial fans, windblown materials, or
colluvium. There is some potential for collapsible soils. The potential for collapsible
soils would need to be addressed during the design phase of the project and if
collapsible soils are found to occur at the site, mitigation measures may be necessary
to reduce or eliminate the hazard.
Alam Singh et al. (1985) classify dune sand as a meta-stable or collapsible soil that goes
through radical re-arrangement of particles and loss in volume upon wetting with or without
load application. The SPT values and relative density of the soil are a function of the
ST/02/11/776
Page no.4 of 73
7. overburden. Thus, higher the overburden pressure, the lower is the relative density for the
same SPT value. Table 1 presents SPT values for stable and unstable dunes.
Table - SPT N-Values for Stable and Unstable Dunes (Source : Alam Singh et al, 1985)
N – ValueDepth (m) Condition
Stable Dune Unstable Dune
1.0 Dry 8 – 12 5 – 7
2.0 Dry 10 – 17 7 – 13
3.0 Dry 12 – 25 9 – 15
4.0 Dry 16 – 35 14 – 15
1.0 Submerged - 1 – 2
2.0 Submerged - 3 – 4
Dune sands have low bearing capacities. The traditional and standard methods of
computation of soil bearing capacity and settlement tend to over-predict the soil bearing
capacity. This is because dune sands have a collapsible soil structure and are highly
compressible. Settlement of these soils is higher than that for other soils with similar
engineering characteristics. The behavior of dune sands is not governed by the normal laws
of soil-water relationship. SPT values decrease on addition of water. Settlement also occurs
on contact with water even without application of load. It has been observed that in loose
desert sands of Rajasthan, the total settlement due to rise in water table is much larger than
twice the initial settlement.
Corrosive soils are materials that have the potential to adversely impact buried metallic
pipes, concrete, and other underground structures due to their chemical makeup. Factors
that influence soil corrosivity include pH, electrical resistivity, and chemical constituents
(chloride, sulfate, etc.).
Based on investigation, near soils are typically slightly alkaline (pH = 7.5 – 7.9), are slightly
corrosive to uncoated steel, and are very slightly corrosive to concrete materials. On
the basis of this information, there is a potential for site soils to be slightly corrosive to
metallic and concrete building materials. Soil can be classified in Class 1 as per the table no.
4 of IS: 456, 2000. Ordinary Portland cement or Portland pozollana cement shall be used for
all buried RCC structural members. The concrete shall be designed for moderate to severe
exposure condition (as the site is very remote) as suggested in Table no. 3 of IS: 456, 2000.
The minimum cement content shall not be less than 320 kg / m3
and the W/C shall not be
more than 0.50. Clear cover to the reinforcement shall be adequate enough.
3.4.6 Primary Ground Rupture
Primary ground rupture is ground deformation that occurs along the surface trace of the
causative fault during an earthquake. No active faults are known to exist within the subject
site. Therefore, primary ground rupture is not considered a hazard to the project.
ST/02/11/776
Page no.5 of 73
8. 3.4.7 Strong Ground Motion
The site is located within a seismically active region (Zone 3) that is historic seismicity.
Because the site is in a seismically active region, it follows that it will be subjected to future
seismic shaking and strong ground motion resulting from seismic activity along local and
more distant active faults. As such, structural improvements should be designed to
accommodate expected strong ground shaking.
3.4.8 Liquefaction
Liquefaction is a phenomenon whereby, during periods of oscillatory ground motion caused
by an event such as an earthquake, the pore-water pressure in a loose, saturated granular
soil and some fine-grained soils increases to the point where the effective stress in the soil is
zero and the soil loses a portion of its shear strength (initial liquefaction). Structures founded
on or above potentially liquefiable soils may experience bearing capacity failures, vertical
settlement (both total and differential) and lateral displacement (due to lateral spreading
of the ground). The factors known to influence liquefaction potential include soil
characteristics (particle-size distribution, plasticity, and water content), relative density,
presence or absence of groundwater, stress tensor (effective confining stresses, shear
stress) and the intensity and duration of the seismic ground shaking. The granular soils most
susceptible to liquefaction are loose, saturated sands and non-plastic silty soils located
below the water table.
The potential for liquefaction at the site is considered to be nil. This is due to the dense,
finer-grained, sand without water table.

spread footings to support the transformers and control room and the PV panel
support structures.
It is recommended that the base of the shallow spread footings be embedded at least
2.0 m below the overlying ground into stable dune.

9. 5.2.2 The coefficient of vertical subgrade reaction is estimated as 15 kg per cubic cm
based on the estimated material characteristics (Ref : Terzagi (1955)). These values
assume that the material is not saturated; if the material were saturated the
coefficient of subgrade reaction would be less and of the order of 9.6 kg per cubic
cm. For spread footings an ultimate coefficient of friction of 0.35 may be used. A
factor of safety of at least 1.5 should be applied to the ultimate frictional resistance
for the static case and a factor of safety of at least 1.3 should be applied for cases
that include transient loading (seismic and wind gusts, but not sustained wind load).
5.3 Earthwork
5.3.1 Project will consist of excavation for the foundations for the Buildings or wherever
spread footings are used. Trenches for buried electrical cables are also planned.
Side slope in excavation may remain vertical only for short duration during
construction and therefore side slope of 1V:2H shall be provided. Suitable
arrangement like shoring and strutting may be provided for deeper excavation.
5.3.2 The materials that will be excavated are mainly sand. The sands should be suitable
for reuse in fills that will be overlain by project facilities. The fill material for use in the
fill placed beneath the shallow foundations or in plinth of structures or in sub grade
filling for embankment of road, shall consist of sand excavated from the project site.
