PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 MOBILIZATION AND DEMOBILIZATION

See Section 01 54 00 MOBILIZATION AND DEMOBILIZATION for details.

3.2 IDENTIFYING SAMPLES

Sample jars, shipping boxes, and labels shall comply with PART 2, paragraphs SAMPLE JARS, SHIPPING BOXES, and LABELS, respectively. In addition, a moisture proof label containing the project name, hole number and sample number shall be placed inside the jar or this information can be written using a waterproof pen or scribed on the jar lid. Take all precautions required to insure that the shipping boxes are not subjected to rough handling or damaging environmental conditions.

3.3 DRIVE SAMPLE BORING AND SAMPLING

Samples shall be labeled in accordance with paragraph IDENTIFYING SAMPLES. Drive sample borings drilled through overburden materials shall be suitably cased to permit obtaining drive samples of the size or sizes specified or as directed. Samples shall be taken either continuously or at maximum vertical intervals of 5 feet or at a change in materials in accordance with the paragraph SCHEDULE OF DRILLING, SAMPLING, AND TESTING or as otherwise referenced in the Drilling, Sampling, Testing, and Safety Plan. The sampler shall be driven with the force of the 140 pound drive

SECTION 02 32 00 Page 7 hammer under a free fall of 30 inches . A 300 pound hammer may be used upon refusal to advance the sample if it is determined that the refusal is due to cobbles or boulders. To minimize the compacting effect of casing driving when casing is used to stabilize a boring, the bottom of the casing shall be kept as high above the soil sampling zone as conditions permit. Above the water table, samples shall be obtained from a dry hole. Below the water table, water shall be maintained within the hole at or above the groundwater level. Where information on the natural water content of soils above the water table is not needed and when approved by the Contacting Officer, boreholes may be drilled without casing by using a suitable drilling fluid to prevent collapse of sidewalls. When a drilling fluid is used, soil sampling shall be done by such means that will prevent inclusion of drilling fluid in the samples. The samples shall be placed in sample jars as soon as possible after they are taken from the hole and, when possible, the volume of the sample shall be large enough to completely fill the sample jar in order that the natural moisture content of the material may be retained to the fullest extent possible. All samples shall be labeled. No sample shall remain at the site of boring for more than one week after being taken from the hole.

3.4 UNDISTURBED SAMPLING

In general, labeling of undisturbed samples shall conform to paragraph IDENTIFYING SAMPLES. Particular care shall be taken to indicate the top and bottom of each sample tube. Tubes and crates for undisturbed samples shall be labeled "DO NOT JAR OR VIBRATE" and "HANDLE, HAUL, AND SHIP IN A

VERTICAL POSITION".

3.4.1 Procedure

The procedure for Undisturbed Sampling shall be the same as outlined in paragraph DRIVE SAMPLE BORING AND SAMPLING, except that the sampling device shall be advanced downward by one continuous, smooth drive using the drill rig's hydraulic feed system. The hydraulic down pressure shall be read and recorded at 6 inch intervals during each sample drive. The sampling device for stiff and dense soils shall be advanced by continuous rotation of the outer cutting barrel in conjunction with use of drill fluid circulation. Driving of any undisturbed sampling device by means such as a drop hammer will not be permitted.

3.4.2 Sealing

3.4.2.1 Alternate 1

The soil sample obtained in a thin wall Shelby tube shall be retained in the tube and sealed on both ends with a mechanically expandable O-ring sealing disk of the appropriate size.

3.4.2.2 Alternate 2

The soil sample obtained in a thin wall Shelby tube shall be extruded from the tube in the field as soon as the tube is removed from the boring by a method approved by the Contracting Officer. The extruded soil sample shall immediately be wrapped in thin plastic wrap and placed in the center of a plastic tube that has a diameter of at least 1 inch larger than the diameter of the soil sample, is at least 1-inch longer than the length of the soil sample, and has at least 1/2-inch of congealed 50/50 mixture of paraffin and microcrystalline wax in the bottom. The annular space between the soil sample and the tube shall be filled with a 50/50 mixture

SECTION 02 32 00 Page 8 of paraffin and microcrystalline wax to a distance of at least 1/2-inch above the top of the soil sample.

3.4.2.3 Alternate 3

Both ends of the soil sample tube/liner obtained with a Denison barrel, or its equivalent, shall be cleaned out to remove all drill fluid contaminated and/or disturbed soil or to a minimum distance of 2 inches from the ends of the tube/liner. Any material removed that is not contaminated with drill fluid shall be placed in a sample jar and labeled in accordance with paragraph IDENTIFYING SAMPLES. The cleaned out ends of the sample liner tube shall then be sealed with a 50/50 mixture of paraffin and microcrystalline wax. A metal or wooden disk, having a diameter just slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the liner tube shall be inserted into the wax to a distance of 1/4-inch from the end of the soil sample. The wax plugs shall be flush with the ends of the tube and a final seal consisting of a metal cap or tape shall be placed over the ends of the tube.

3.5 CORE DRILLING

Core drilling as required to advance a boring through boulders, cobbles, or lithified silt and clay layers shall be 2 inch diameter Core.

3.5.1 Procedure

All holes shall be drilled vertically to the bottom elevations or depths specified unless indicated in the schedule of borings or directed to be drilled otherwise. Off-setting of borings from the locations specified in the Plan of Borings or as shown on the drawings, will not be permitted without prior approval. Casing through the overburden may be required.

This casing shall be sealed in the rock at the elevation where rock is encountered prior to commencement of rock coring. Operate the drills at required speeds and down pressures to control drill fluid pressures and quantities to insure maximum core quality and recovery in whatever kind of rock is encountered. Where soft or broken rock is encountered, reduce the length of runs to 5 feet or less in order to reduce and/or keep core loss and core disturbance to the minimum. Failure to comply with the foregoing procedures will constitute justification for the Contracting Officer to require redrilling, at the Contractor's expense, of any boring from which the core recovery is unsatisfactory. Exercise particular care in recording zones of water loss, cavities, rod jerks, rough drilling and other unusual and non-ordinary coring experiences that, supplementing the core record, will throw light on the nature and the extent of any fracturing or abnormalities.

3.5.2 Arrangement of Core

Core boxes shall comply with PART 2, paragraph CORE BOXES. All cores shall be arranged neatly in the partitioned boxes in the same sequence in which they occurred before removal from the hole. Facing the open box with the hinged cover above and the open box below, cores shall be arranged in descending sequence beginning at the left end of the trough nearest the hinges and continuing in the other troughs from left to right. The highest part of the core shall be placed in box 1, and the lower portions of the core shall be placed in the other boxes in consecutive order.

SECTION 02 32 00 Page 9

3.5.3 Labeling, Marking and Packing Core

Stenciled labels for core boxes complying with paragraph CORE BOX LABELS shall be placed on the inside and outside of the top cover in addition to each end. In addition, the depths (or elevations) of each core run/pull shall be marked with a black waterproof pen on the spacer blocks that are placed between core pulls. When a box is full, the space between the core and the trough sides shall be filled with finely ground vermiculite or other packing material approved by the Contracting Officer.

3.5.4 Disposition of Core

While onsite, protect the filled core boxes from direct sunlight, precipitation, and freezing by some form of Contracting Officer approved shelter that allows ventilation to the boxes. Upon completion of core drilling and sampling operations, core boxes containing cores shall be stored in an area provided by the Contracting Officer near the site of drilling.

3.6 SUPPLEMENTAL BORINGS

Borings that are abandoned or from which unsatisfactory samples or cores are obtained will be supplemented by other borings adjacent to the original in order that satisfactory samples or the required information will be obtained. Actual locations of any supplemental borings will be established by the Contracting Officer. Penetration to the depth where the original was abandoned or to the depths where unsatisfactory samples were obtained may be made by any method selected by the Contractor that in the opinion of the Contracting Officer will permit satisfactory completion and sampling below the elevation where the last satisfactory sample was obtained in the abandoned or satisfactory sampling in the reaches where satisfactory samples were not obtained in the original borings. No payment will be made for supplemental borings that are required to be drilled to replace borings that were abandoned or from which satisfactory samples were not obtained because of mechanical failure of drilling and sampling equipment, negligence on the part of the Contractor, or other preventable cause for which the Contractor is responsible except that payment will be made for acceptable portions of these supplementary borings below the depths or outside the reaches for which payment was made for the original borings pits.

3.7 BACKFILLING

3.7.1 Drill Holes

Unless otherwise noted in these specifications or directed by the Contracting Officer, all drill holes shall be backfilled and abandoned in accordance with all Federal, State, and local laws, regulations and ordinances. Preserve all holes in good condition until final measurement and until the records and samples have been accepted. As a minimum, all holes shall be grouted from the bottom of the hole to within 2 feet of the ground surface using a grout mixture of 6 to 8 gallons of water per sack (94 pounds) of portland cement. All grout shall be pumped through a tremie pipe that is inserted to the bottom of the boring to insure that the grout fills the full extent of the hole. The remaining ungrouted top 2 feet of the hole shall be backfilled with local soil and tamped. All backfilling operations shall be performed in the presence of the Contracting Officer and, if required by regulation, Federal, State, and local officials. No separate payment will be made for backfilling drill

SECTION 02 32 00 Page 10 holes. The cost of this work shall be included in the drilling costs.
