 LABORATORY

SOIL TESTING FOR CONSTRUCTION:-

1.FREE SWELL INDEX (IS CODE:2720- PART 40):-

 Generally the soil used for testing purpose are borrowed from the
near by area range 5 to 10 km from the initial site.
 Free swell is the increase in value of a soil without any external
on strain on submergence in water.
 Free swell or differential free swell, also termed as “free swell
index”, is the increase in volume of soil without any external
constraint when subjected to submergence in water.
 2.GRAIN SIZE ANALYSIS

- It is a typical laboratory test conducted in the soil

mechanics field the purpose of the analysis is to derive the
particle size distribution of soil.
- The percentage retain on each sieve is determine by dividing
each weight retain
by the initial weight of the soil sample.
3. LIQUID LIMIT & PLASTI LIMIT

LIQUID LIMIT

 It is the water content at which soil changes from a plastic

to liquid state .
 A liquid limit should not be more the 50%.

PLASTIC LIMIT

 It is the water content at

 which soil changes from
 plastic to a semi solid state
 It should not be more than 25%.
 4.PROCTOR TEST

 The Proctor compaction test is performed to determine the

maximum dry density of soil samples. It determines the
optimal moisture content at which a given sample will
become densest and achieve its maximum dry density.

 The test is known as the Proctor compaction test in honor

of Ralph Roscoe Proctor. In 1933, he showed that the dry
density of soil for given compaction depends on the
amount of water in the soil at the time of compaction.
 5.CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO

 The CBR is a penetration test used for determining the

sub grade strength value of pavement and roads.

 The CBR is the ratio of the bearing load that penetrates a

material to a specific depth compared with the load giving
the same penetration into crushed stone.

 The test measures neither Stiffness Modulus nor Shear

Strength directly, but gives a combined measure of both.
CBR= (PT/PS)X100.
6.DIRECT SHEAR TEST

 A direct shear test is a laboratory or field test used by

geotechnical engineers to measure the shear strength
properties of soil or rock material, or of
discontinuities in soil or rock masses.

 The purpose of a direct shear test is to determine the

shear strength of a soil it measure the force and
horizontal displacement of representative soil
specimen that is sheared along a controlled
horizontal plane at a constant rate of deformation
 SURVEY

 Civil surveying is an engineering operation that involves

assessing and recording details about an area of land.
These observations can then be used to help plan
construction projects.
 The main purpose of surveying in civil engineering is to
determine the three-dimensional relationships between
different locations. Knowing information like the
distances and angles between points and lines helps
engineers determine how to draw up plans for public
buildings, homes, roads, bridges and a variety of other
construction and infrastructure projects.
1. Preparing plots.
2. Planning for new construction projects.
3. Estimating projected paths of roads, railways, power lines
and irrigation systems.
4. Assessing the position of existing structures like
highways, canals, dams and bridges.
5. Planning and constructing mines.
6. Charting navigational routes.
 TYPES OF SURVEY

1. MAP STUDY

2. RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY

3. PRELIMINARY SURVEY

4. LOCATION SURVEY

1.MAP STUDY:-

 From the map, alternative routes can be suggested in the

office, if the topographic map of that area is available.

 Avoiding valleys, ponds or lake.

 Avoiding bend of river.
 If road has to cross a rowof hills, possibility of crossing
through mountain pass.
 2. RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY:-

1- To confirm features indicated on map.

2- To examine the general character of the area in field

for deciding the most feasible routes for detail studies.

3.PRILIMINARY SURVEY:-

1.To survey the various alternative alignments proposed after

the reconnaissance and to collect all the necessary physical
information and detail of topography, drainage and soil.

2.To estimate quantity of earthwork materials and other

construction aspect and to work out the cost of the alternate
proposals.

4.LOCATION SURVEY:-

1.Transferring the alignment on to ground.

2.This is done by transit theodolite.

3. Centre lines tacks are driven at suitable intervals, say 50m

interval in plane and rolling terrains and 20m in hilly terrain.
 INSTRUMENT USED IN SURVEY

1.THEODOLITE

2.TOTAL STATION

3. PRISM SURVEY

1.THEODOLITE:-

 It is the most precise instrument for the measurement of
horizontal and vertical angles. It is popular in
various surveying applications.
 There are two types of theodolite– transit, and non-
transit. non-transit theodolites have become obsolete these
days.
 Transit theodolite is such theodolite in which
the telescope
 can be revolved by 180° in the vertical plane.
2.TOTAL STATION :-

 Horizontal angles:
The rotation of the optical axis of TS from
the instrument north in a horizontal plane gives the
horizontal angle.
 Vertical angle:
 The inclination of the optical axis of TS from the local
vertical gives a vertical angle.
 Slope distance:
 The distance between TS and target gives the slope
 distance.
3.PRISM SURVEY:-

 Optical Survey prisms are a specially designed retro

reflector, specifically a corner reflector, that is used to
reflect the Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM)
beam from a total station.
 A survey prism reflects the EDM beam back to its source
with both a wide angle of incidence and with high
precision.
 STEEL YARD

 Steel yard is a lay down yard where sequencing of

cutting bending and threading of steel is done with
proper tag system.Location of steel yard in project is
also a very curtail analytical part by which indirect
cost of transportation can be reduce to optimum
extent .
 Position of cutting , bending and threading machine
in steel yard along with steel inward and outward
yard with stacking arrangement like “first come first
out with diameter wise is impactful for proper
functioning of steel yard”.
