About this file
This document is a Geotechnical Investigation Data Report for the NWS Earle Repair Ammunition Rail Trestle and Culverts project, containing detailed boring logs and subsurface profiles for six different borings (B-1, B-2, B-3, B-4, B-5, and B-6w) conducted in Lincroft, New Jersey. The boring logs provide comprehensive geological data, including soil classifications, standard penetration test results, and detailed descriptions of subsurface conditions at varying depths, with most borings extending to approximately 82 feet below ground surface.
The investigation reveals a complex stratigraphy consisting primarily of embankment fill, ballast, silty sand, river alluvium, and silt deposits. Notable observations include the presence of timber debris, creosote odors, and potential voids in the fill layers. The borings were performed using mud rotary drilling methods, with water levels recorded at various depths. The geological investigation appears to be a critical preliminary step in assessing site conditions for the planned repair of the ammunition rail trestle and culverts at Naval Weapons Station Earle, providing essential geotechnical information to support subsequent engineering and construction activities.
