TRADITIONAL GROUND INVESTIGATION METHODS For road projects, a principal aim of the ground investigation is to classify the suitability of the soils in accordance with Table 6.1 from Series 600 of the NRA Specification for Road Works (

11、SRW), March 2000. The majority of current ground investigations for road works includes a combination of the following to give the required geotechnical data: Trial pits Cable percussion boreholes Dynamic probing Rotary core drilling In-situ testing (SPT, variable head permeability tests, geophysica

Detailed and accurate field descriptions are therefore vital for cut areas and trial pits provide an opportunity to examine

Trial pits also provide an insight on trench stability and to observe water ingress and its effects.A suitably experienced geotechnical engineer or engineering geologist should supervise the trial pitting works and recovery of samples. The characteristics

For many of our glacial till, boulder clay soils (i.e. mixed soils) difficulties arise with descriptions and assessing engineering performance tests.As outlined previously, Irish boulder clays usually comprise highly variable proportions of sands, gravels and cobbles in a silt or clay matrix.

BS 5930 (1999) now recognises these difficulties in describing mixed soils the fine soil constituents which govern the engineering behaviour now takes priority over particle size.A key parameter (which is

20、often underestimated) in classifying and understanding these soils is permeability (K). Inspection of the particle size gradings will indicate magnitude of permeability. Where possible, triaxial cell tests should be carried out on either undisturbed samples (U100s) or good quality core samples to ev

This usually entails the installation of perimeter drains and sumps at cut areas or borr

Hence, with small reduction in moisture content, difficult glacial till soils can become suitable as engineering fill.土方工程的地基勘察與施工保羅圭格利愛爾蘭巖土工程服務(wù)有限公司摘 要：當工程場地的處理面積有限且填方工程費用大量增加時，土方工程的地基勘察設(shè)計與施工已逐漸地變得重要。由于冰漬土以及含礫粘土的提出使土方工程地基勘察方法的綱要比傳統(tǒng)的勘察方法更詳細。 本文提出“巖土認證”觀點以

23、及對地基勘察與土方工程相結(jié)合的優(yōu)點加以概要說明。1、引 言許多愛爾蘭含礫粘土的勘察與再利用評價使巖土工程師與道路工程師感到為難。這些冰漬土或含礫粘土主要表現(xiàn)為低可塑性而且還含有從粘土到漂石的不同粒徑顆粒。大部分本地粘土與淤泥質(zhì)土中包含不同比例的砂、礫石、卵石、漂石。顆粒級配控制著土體的行為，而且淤泥使土體性質(zhì)易受天氣變化影響。土體含水量隨著地區(qū)不同而不同，從都柏林硬灰黑含礫粘土的7%到中部、西南部或西北部淺灰色含礫粘土沉積物的20%-25%。含礫粘土吸附水的能力建立的較好但土方工程中計劃的不恰當常導致其擴大。一般來說，良好級配的土體對于含水量的輕微變大相當敏感，將導致強度下降或不適合用作工程回

24、填土。許多含礫粘土（尤其中等淤泥質(zhì)土或良好級配的砂）在選擇階段已經(jīng)被篩除，但事實上它們能對壓縮或強度起到特定的作用。篩選過程應(yīng)盡量使用本地土體或者回填區(qū)或路堤邊性質(zhì)相對較差的土體，通過仔細評價應(yīng)加以應(yīng)用?；靥畈牧媳仨毐３忠欢ǖ暮?，既不能太濕導致土體不穩(wěn)定也不能太干以致不能被充分壓縮。高含水量、低強度含礫粘土適用于低路堤回填（相當于2到2.5米的高度）但不適用于沒有使用土工織布隔離與回填層的土方回填工程。因此，土方工程承包商充分認識土體的處理特性相當重要，因為許多工程都受到挖掘設(shè)備通行能力的影響。2、傳統(tǒng)地基勘察方法對于道路工程來講，地基勘察最基本目標是對土體適用性進行類似表6.1的分類，該

25、表源于國家檔案登記處2000年3月版的道路施工規(guī)范。目前大部分道路施工中的地基勘察包含以下提供有關(guān)巖土參數(shù)的試驗方法： 取樣孔 靜壓法取樣 動力探測 回轉(zhuǎn)鉆進 原位測試（標準貫入試驗，變水頭滲透試驗，巖土物理試驗等） 室內(nèi)試驗評價場地工作的重要性特別是評價土體深部取樣區(qū)域的適用性時不能過分強調(diào)其適用性。靜壓法取樣通常將取樣器下沉至要求深度進行取樣，并每間隔一米進行取樣。在許多情況下，靜壓法取樣由于卵石、漂石阻礙不能壓入非常堅硬的含礫粘土。土樣在鉆孔內(nèi)應(yīng)盡量少擾動，但級配變壞是很正常的，級配變壞將導致土樣分類不夠精確。取樣孔對于恢復適當尺寸的土樣以及觀察碎屑巖在卵石、漂石中所占比例來說應(yīng)該是適當

26、的。因此，詳盡且精確的地區(qū)描述取樣區(qū)域以及取樣空來說都相當重要，而且還為它們提供了檢查土體在鉆孔范圍以外性質(zhì)的良機。取樣孔也提供了孔壁穩(wěn)定性的評價以及觀察孔壁內(nèi)水進入時所造成的影響。一位有經(jīng)驗的巖土工程師或工程地質(zhì)專家應(yīng)監(jiān)督取樣孔工作以及土樣的恢復。因為土樣性質(zhì)為土樣敏感性提供了信息，所以取樣時土體性質(zhì)應(yīng)被密切關(guān)注，尤其是水從小顆粒區(qū)域遷移到良好級配區(qū)域。而且土體在開挖時的條件為其原位條件提供了一個相對精確的評價。3、土的分類土的描述與分類應(yīng)該依照英國標準5930（1999）進行并依照英國標準1337（1990）進行測試。土的工程描述應(yīng)基于按粒徑大小分級并依照良好級配土的可塑性進行補充。對于許

27、多冰漬土或含礫粘土（混合土）的難點在于其描述與工程性質(zhì)測試的評價。關(guān)于以前的地基勘察綱要，愛爾蘭含礫粘土的粘土與淤泥質(zhì)土中常由易變比例的砂、礫石、卵石組成。良好級配且含水量為10%-15%的低可塑性土最難進行描述與分類?，F(xiàn)在英國標準5930（1999）已認識到描述“混合土”所存在的難點土的良好級配較之顆粒尺寸對于控制著土的工程性質(zhì)更優(yōu)越。一個關(guān)鍵參數(shù)在土分類以及理解過程中經(jīng)常被低估，該參數(shù)就是滲透系數(shù)K。檢查土的顆粒級配將間接說明土的滲透系數(shù)的大小。假如可能，為了準確評價土體的排水特性，三軸單元試驗將采用無擾動原狀土樣或高質(zhì)量土樣進行試驗。低可塑性的中等滲透性含礫粘土(K大約在10-5到10-7米.秒范圍內(nèi))能經(jīng)常通過不同排水條件進行“模擬”。其必須在取樣區(qū)域安裝排水邊界以及水坑邊界或借用鉆孔以減少土樣的含水量。因此，由于含水量的小量減少，工程性質(zhì)復雜的冰漬土也能當作合適的工程填土加以應(yīng)用。6
