1.0 INTRODUCTION
This work has been performed by STFA Temel Aratrma ve Sondaj A.. in an agreement signed
with Sistem Yap naat ve Ticaret A../Istanbul Turcia Sucursala Bucuresti on 01.03.2008 in
order to define the boundary of the different rock mass/soil units, stiffness and shear strength of
the units to be encountered at project site. The works of total including 14 nos boreholes started
on 29.05.2008andfinished dated on 19.06.2008.
The studies included drilling, laboratory testing, and permeability test results.
This report provides the factual account of fieldwork carried out and the data acquired, including
the results of field and laboratory tests, borehole logs, records core photographs and summary
and conclusions.
2.0 INVESTIGATIONS CARRIED OUT
2.1 Drilling
At the investigation area a total of 14 nos boreholes down to maximum of 30.0 m were executed
between 29.05.2008 and 19.06.2008.
The locations of boreholes have been denoted in borehole location maps given in Appendix B.
At the investigations rotary type of drilling methods were utilized, by using Acker Ace (2 nos.)
rotary rigs. In rock and/or soil rotary core drilling techniques were applied in accordance with BS
5930:1999 Site Investigations using water and/or mud flush circulation systems. Core barrels
were of non-rotating double tube T6 and T2 and size 101mm, 86mm with the use of diamond
and tungsten carbide bits. Casings having sizes of 5 (127mm o.d.), 4 (101.6mm o.d.) were also
used where soil conditions within the borehole necessitated their use.
Core runs were generally limited to 1.5m in order to improve the core recovery. Initial
descriptions and identification of core samples were made on site as soon as they were
recovered. Cores were then placed in wooden core boxes. The depths at the each core run were
recorded on the end markers.
The borehole logs are presented in Appendix C of this volume. Boreholes, field tests, and soil
descriptions were made in accordance with ASTM 2000, BS 5930: 1999 and rock descriptions

2.2 Sampling
During drilling in soil, representative samples were taken at each SPT test in soil usually at about
1.5 m intervals. Samples recovered from the split spoon sampler were examined, placed in glass
jars, sealed and transported to STFA Temel Aratrma ve Sondaj A. laboratory and evre
Chemical laboratory for Chemical testing.
Disturbed samples were preserved in the labelled glass jars as representative samples. Thin
walled Shelby type samplers were used to recover undisturbed samples from cohesive soils. Both
ends of the Shelby tubes sealed with paraffin and transported to the laboratory for testing.
In the hard clay-silt and similar layers, where coring is possible and rock layers were both
collected via T2 type double tube core barrels. Cores were kept in labelled core boxes. Selected
soil cores were immediately wrapped with cling film and sealed by paraffin before transporting to
laboratory.
In soil and rock, the recovered core samples were stored in specially prepared core boxes. The
beginning and end of runs were marked on wooden partitions of the core boxes. Cores weredescribed in the field and TCR, RQD in accordance with the definitions given in ISRM 1985 and
BS 5930 (1999) and recorded on the borehole logs.

2.3 In situ Tests
2.3.1 Standart Penetration Test (SPT)
Standard penetration tests were carried out which has an outer diameter of 50.8 mm, inner
diameter of 34.9mm, with a 63.5 kg hammer falling from 0.76 m height. Blow counts for each 15
cm penetration for a total 45 cm were recorded. Last two steps were summed to obtain SPT N
values, which are shown in borehole logs.
The results are recorded in borehole logs which are presented at appendix C.
2.3.2 Permeability Test
Variable head permeability test was performed in borehole S5 to measure in-situ permeability of
the soil layers.
Permeability test was carried out as rising head or falling head tests, on the basis of
BS:5930:(1999). The principle of this test is based upon the measurement of water levels in
different time intervals. The results are plotted on a graph of water level (H, meter) versus time
(t, minutes).
The following formulation was employed to calculate in-situ permeability k (m/s);
A H1
K =Loge
F (t2 t1) H2
where ;
K = permeability coefficient;
F = water intake factor;
H1 = variable head measured at time t1, after commencement of test;
H2= variable head measured at time t2, after commencement of test;
A = cross sectional area of borehole casing or stand pipe as appropriate.
For the constant head test, the following formulation is applied;

2.4 Groundwater Observations
The groundwater levels are observed at the project site during investigations period and
groundwater levels were measured morning and evening time in the boreholes during the
investigations and final levels are presented in the borehole logs.
S5 borehole is drilled and inside this borehole 50 mm diamater PVC type plastic pipe is installed
in order to observe groundwater levels at project site.
3.0 LABORATORY TESTS
Laboratory tests were performed on selected and representative samples recovered during
drilling. The laboratory tests were performed in accordance with the ASTM Standards and the
British Standards. The test results are presented in Appendix F, and type and quantities of tests
performed on the samples recovered from boreholes are summarized in Table 3.

5.0 SUMMARY and CONCLUSIONS
The soil profile at the site of Deva Wastewater Treatment Plant is overlain by soft and medium
dense layers. Sandstone, siltstone and claystone layers are encountered at rather shallow depths.
Ground water level is encountered at shallow depth at an average elevation of 182.24 m. It
would be necessary to make dewatering when excavating for foundations.
Properties of soil layers encountered at the site are summarized in Table 4.

Activated Sludge Tank (8). Borehole No.12. Foundation elevation is given as 179.20 m.
Ground elevation is 183.20 m. Very weak layers of clay and sand are encountered at shallow
depths in that borehole. A reliable soil layer could be obtained at the elevation of 178.20m (5
meters below the foundation level). Hence it is recommended to remove the soil above the
ground water level and replace it with granular material and compact it layer by layer in
accordance with laboratory compaction test data, in order to reach the envisaged foundation
level.
For foundations laid at the elevation of 179.20 m allowable bearing pressure could be given as,

Stabilized Sludge Gravity Thickeners (20). Borehole No.S9. Foundation elevation is 181.00 m.
Foundations will be placed on silty clay and sandy lean clay layers. In that case allowable bearing pressure
becomes,

There exists a loose layer of silty sand between the elevations of 179.20 m and 177.70 m at that location.
The risk of liquefaction is analysed for that layer and factor safety is found as F.S.=1.65.
Primary Sludge Gravity Thickeners (16). Borehole No.S6. Foundation elevation is 180.95 m.
Foundations will be placed on gravel layers. Gravel layers are in dense state and will carry foundation
pressures of 77 kPa. Allowable bearing pressure can be given as,
B0.7 = 200.7= 8.14 m.

Biogas Holders (27). Borehole No.S7. Foundation elevation is 184.50 m. Ground elevation atborehole No.S7 location is 184.65 m and soil profile is overlain by a made ground layer. It should
be necessary to remove the made ground layer before laying foundations. Excavated ground
should be replaced by a granular controlled fill. For a foundation base prepared by the described

Grit and Grease Removal Chamber (3). Borehole No.S4. Foundation elevation is 182.35m.
Foundations will be placed at a level which is in the made ground layer. Allowable bearing
pressure of foundations on the clean clay layer below the made ground layers is,
qall= (5*su) / 2.5 = 60 kPa.
That value is smaller than the required allowable foundation pressure which is 100 kPa. Ground
water level is at the elevation of 182.97 m. And in order to increase the allowable bearing
pressure it would be necessary either to lower the foundation level to the elevation of 180.92 m
or to excavate at least 1.00 m of the lean clay layer and to replace it with controlled fill.
Coarse Screen and Inlet Pump Station (1), Screen Plant (2), Sanitary Pit (23). Borehole

Sludge Dewatering Building (19). Borehole No.S10. Foundations are planned to be placed at
the elevation of 183.30 m. Ground elevation at the borehole location is 183.20 m and soil profile
