Abstract:

AbstractMarine site investigations are reviewed briefly, in terms of suitable drilling platforms and craft for various conditions, requirements for permissions and service locations, marine ground investigation methods and marine survey methods including geophysical profiling.The wide range of marine site investigation methods is illustrated and the appreciable differences from land site investigation methods are noted. It is suggested that BS 5930 does not give sufficient guidance on marine site investigations and that this situation should be rectified.

Abstract:

AbstractIt is water that makes the difference between a dried-out clay as hard as a brick, and mud. The dry fields of summer can become a quagmire for construction work.Examples are given of rapid deterioration of chalk when allowance had not been made for the effect of a known high water table when excavation went below it and the effect of water on loose backfill at an opencast site. Houses had been built before the water level rose in the old pit and were damaged by the resulting settlements.Soil fabric can make the overall field permeability much greater than that obtained from tests on small samples and completely upset predictions of quantities of water and number of wells required for ground water lowering.Out of balance water pressures caused by allowing the water level in a borehole to be much below the ground water level can lead to low SPT N values and disturbed samples. The result could be unnecessary expense on the new works.False results may be obtained if excessive pressures are used in making field permeability tests such as the Lugeon test. On the other hand, hydraulic fracture tests can be used to obtain an assessment of total stress conditions in the ground.

Abstract:

Abstract Geotechnical investigation is a cyclic process. The interdependency between different steps involved in whole process, i.e., from planning, performing investigation, transporting samples and analysis of data obtained from field or lab, present opportunities for improvements and further discussion. For estimating number of investigation sampling points required for a particular site and selection of investigation methods, today we mostly relay on information from previously conducted site investigations, local experience from that area or site. In geotechnical investigation getting field samples which represents actual ground conditions for the whole site is well known challenge and has been highlighted in many research papers. In this paper we are presenting concept of influence region of geotechnical investigation points and an approach for estimation of the same. We believe the influence region concept; its estimation approach will provide a mathematical model and will help in deciding number of sampling points at the geotechnical investigation sites. In author’s opinion the presented concept will further improve the quality of geotechnical ground investigation process and will provide help in getting representative, quality field samples for laboratory analysis. The presented concept and estimation approach in this paper is based on author’s field experience and exposure gained from working in Swedish infrastructure projects. We think the influence region concept will further improve the existing geotechnical ground investigation process and will open opportunities for its validation through focused scientific research. A brief overview of the existing ground investigation processes has been covered in the paper, along with examples from geotechnical site investigations from Trafikverket (The Swedish Transport Administration) projects in Sweden.

Abstract:

From the Proceedings of the 1990 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association and the Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science - April 21, 1990, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona
New regulations concerning the management of underground storage tanks (USTs) have resulted in increased awareness of environmental contamination resulting from leaking USTs. The objective of the typical underground storage tank investigation is to determine if any subsurface contamination has occurred as a result of tank or product line leakage, fuel spills or overfills. Soil contamination at underground storage tank sites is usually discovered during the removal and replacement of USTs. Techniques that can be used to detect the presence of soil contamination adjacent to existing USTs include soil vapor analysis, exploratory boring, and soil and ground water sampling. The lateral and vertical extent of contamination must be determined at any site which contains detectable quantities of contamination. Two common methods for determining the extent of contamination are over-excavation and borehole drilling and sampling. Boring design and location considerations include number of borings, borehole depth and spacing, and site sub -surface conditions. Differentiation between perched sub -surface water and aquifers is critical. Once an appropriate boring plan has been established, then a sampling and analysis plan must be adopted that meets the needs of the particular investigation. The determination of the extent of contamination at an underground storage tank site is the first step leading to site closure and remediation.

Full text

Abstract:

A conceptual site model (CSM) is simply a description of the environmental conditions at a contaminated site and surrounding area, which provides all interested parties with a vision of the site. CSM mainly identifies the source-pathway&
#8208
receptor linkage to guide for effective site characterization, risk assessment and remedial investigations. Development of CSM is complicated because it is &lsquo
case specific&rsquo
and there is no single route to follow during decision making concerning the contaminated site. Moreover, type and extent of information needed varies according to size and level of contamination and site heterogeneity. The objective of this study is to develop a decision support tool that guides the site assessors during identification of possible decision routes that can be encountered
the procedure to be followed
and the information and data to be collected at each stage. This tool also introduces interactions between CSM andsampling strategies designed for various purposes. Developed decision support tool adapts to each specific contaminated site. Furthermore, a detailed review of sampling strategies is presented as a guidance for site assessors. The decision support tool is equipped with standardized tools used for CSM development, i.e. information/data collection forms, illustrative tools and exposure pathway diagram. Information on site, geology, hydrogeology, contamination source, contaminants and receptors is collected via CSM form. Illustrative tools may vary from very simple site sketches to very complex 3D drawings depending on the needs of the specific contamination cases. Exposure pathway diagram (EPD) is used to identify all transport mechanisms and potential exposure pathways. EPD is embedded into a user&
#8208
friendly decision assistance tool based on Microsoft Excel and Visual Basic for Applications. The applicability and utility of the decision support tool was tested using two case studies. Case study applications indicated that the developed methodology satisfies the objectives aimed in this study.

Abstract:

Free-fall penetrometers (FFPs) are an attractive tool for the rapid characterization of sediments in the nearshore and coastal areas. To improve their measurement capabilities, modern FFPs can be equipped with pore pressure sensors. Pore pressure measurements are extensively used in traditional cone penetration testing, but their usage and interpretation is still limited for FFP testing. This thesis represents an effort to advance the interpretation of pore pressure measurements from FFP testing. Data was collected using the torpedo-shaped FFP BlueDrop during surveys at Herschel Island, YT, Yakutat, AK, Clay Bank, VA, and Yorktown, VA. Additionally, test deployments in the laboratory were performed in kaolin clay. Data analysis was focused on pore pressure measurements during these deployments. Two major advancements regarding current data analysis of FFP pore pressure measurements were explored: 1) a method based on fluid dynamic principles was proposed to correct the pressure recordings for the dynamic flow effects due to the high-velocity fall and impact. The results show that using Bernoulli’s theorem coupled with the concept of pressure coefficients results in good agreement between measured and hydrostatic pressures during the free-fall and initial penetration stage. 2) Pore pressure dissipation curves measured by the penetrometer at rest at maximum penetration depth were also studied. The mechanisms behind the non-standard dissipation curves were explored. The results suggest that non-standard dissipation curves can be interpreted by correcting according to Sully et al.’s (1999) extrapolation technique. The technique can also be used with data from an unsaturated or clogged filter.

Abstract:

A preliminary assessment of the Sellafield site in Cumbria was undertaken to provide the information for the hazard identification stage in the environmental risk assessment process. This preliminary investigation has been crucial to understanding the site’s history, the zones of potential risk and for the design of a site investigation. The formalised assessment strategy that has subsequently been developed by BNFL for the Sellafield study has drawn upon UK and international guidance to take into account the size of the site and the anticipated complexity of issues. The approach presented represents an advance on existing working practices in contaminated land investigations. The use of a generic list of Features, Events and Processes (FEPs) has been adopted to ensure the systematic and comprehensive appraisal of all relevant uncertainties and sources of risk. Proforma have also been developed to provide a data management and retrieval system that is transparent for quality assurance purposes. This unique approach facilitates the development of conceptual site models as new data become available during the site investigation. It also aids in the development and justification of alternative site conceptualisations and in the early identification of data and interpretative uncertainty.

Abstract:

An important part of the work described here was a study of existing international experience in investigating deep geological repository sites. The objective of this study was to derive a basis for planning the content and extent of investigations which might be carried out in Germany in the future. Such investigations would be required in the course of a site selection process for a repository for HLW (high level radioactive waste). For this purpose information on suitable sites was gathered, mainly from literature sources. Suitable in this context meant two things. Firstly, the investigated site should be in rock similar to four being considered in Germany (salt, clay, crystalline and other hard rock under a clay cover). Secondly, the investigations carried out could reasonably be considered as being intended to lead to the use of the site as a repository. The investigation processes were presented, analysed and compared. The comparison was based on the quality and the intensity of the methods employed to obtain the information necessary for deciding between candidate repository sites in terms of safety and the feasibility of construction. In the final stage of the work the analysis and presentation method developed for the international sites was applied to the investigations already carried out at three German sites (Gorleben — a prospective HLW repository, Morsleben — an existing but now not operational repository for radioactive waste and Konrad — a repository currently under construction). The reported investigatory work was compared with the ideal investigations developed on the basis of the existing international experience.

Abstract:

Adoption of an engineering geological ground model (EGGM) prior to ground investigation, as a conceptual site characterisation approach, empowers users with the capacity to predict subsurface data trends, test assumptions, refine geotechnical inputs and better manage ongoing ground investigations. This approach informs the planning of ground investigation (GI) locations, in-situ testing, and non-intrusive surveys to ensure high-quality, efficient, and cost-effective data yield. This theme is explored using a case study at Manila Bay, in the Philippines, where a ground model was developed for planning and execution of site investigations and to add-value to site characterisation and geotechnical appraisal for nearshore site formation.
