FINAL REPORT TEST FIU P30 CRAN RESULTS AND RACEFIU R10000EKDATZCES FOR CLASS II SACKFIll BRIBISWICE STIAM ELECTRIC FIANT SOUI1Ep0tT, NDRIE CAROLINA INfnonocrton i

A test fill has been conducted at the site of the Braswick Steam Electric Plant (BSD) to establish construction control procedures i and optiani compaction methods for backfill material. Optimal conditions '

i are those associated with the attainasst of the required density with the least amoust of work. As discussed in a companion reportf }* tue h

different soils designated as class I and Class II have been tested. i se This report contains appropriate recosasadations for the Class II soil, .I whereas the companica report contains similar information relative o

to the Class I soil. I It la noted that class I soil is that backfill material availste at the BSIP site which has less than 15 peroset by weight passing the No.

200 sieve.

It is essentially granular, free draining, and its compacties is 1

practically independent of water contest. It will be placed in accordmee

((

i with a relative density criterion as suggested by ASTM Designation F206-447. * '

4 Class II soil is c.afined as that backfill material available at the BSD site having a percentage of fines passing the No. 200 sieve in the range j of 15 to 40 percent. It is essentially a granular material, but its degree .

I of cospection is water-content dependent. Iherefore, a Modified Proctor criterion, as suggested by ASTM Designation D-1557-66T, Method A, will be used for field control. {

The Modified proctor criterion, as opposed to the

)

standard proctor criterias, has been adopted because the energy associated with the laboratory test is a better representation of that being imparted to the soil by the compaction equipment available at the site. '

It' la emphasised that the Class I and Class II designations in no way refer to ABC classification of structures.

Ihe use of I and II to desig-t

}

mate types of sell has been adopted on this project solely for siglicity in '

the field. To fully appreciate this means of classification, an understanding of the enesvaties operattaa is necessary. ifbes the material is being removed from the excavation, a soils engineer is constantly observing the operation I t

and directing the scraper operator with hand signals to the proper stockpile or spoil pile. A "thu6e down" signal indicates spoil while one finger y 1

inMentes Class I soil and two fingers indicates Class 11 soil. The soils f

engianer is able to identify the class of soil by observing the water con-tent, color, greia-size characteristics and a general recognition of the i 1

material as a result of having run nimerous grain eise analyses. His inter-protation is subsequently checked with formal grain-sise analysee later in i

the a or ths G11owing day and will again be checked during placement of .

, the backfill.

[

t lased en the results presented hereia, it is recommended that the $

Class II soil be placed as backfill at a density greater than or equal to -

90 percent of the maximum density as obtained by the Modified Proctor Method i j

s (90% IMPD)* where a relative density of 75 percent had been previously stipu- j lated. The Clasa 11 soils will require moisture content control, and it is recommended that the Class II soil be placed at water contents within the f

j Modified Proctor envelope defined by the 90% 79tPD. Ihe established MMFD for The abbreviation HMPD will be used to designate ". ... Maximus Modified Proctor Density."

E. D'A PPOLO N I A comisutne.e (i.easans.exc. 4 and D 422 63. (2,3) respectively, ne data sheets for all grain size analyses associated with the Class II teet fill are maintained at the site. H e test l results indicate that the percentage of fines in the test fill lanes varied from 20.2 percent to 27.8 percent as shown in Table I. De range of grain size distribution is indicated in the grata size boundary curves shown on

-65 Fig 1. 21s figure indicates that the materials used in the Class II test n'  : fill consisted of a uniformly graded claysy fine sand and sitty fine sand with an average grain size of 0.2 sua and a average percentage of finas of 23. 7.

Modified proctor Compacties Tests:

tio define the asisture-density sulationship for Class II soil, Modified Proctor compaction tests were perforised in accordsace wi4 ASTM D 1557 66T, Method A. Laboratory data sheets for these taats on file at the site, the maximum dry densities and aptiamm watsr contents are sun.

marised in Table I. The Modified Proctor compaction curves shown on Fig 2 exhibit a typical peak which varies from 118.5 pef to 121.5 pef at optimum water contents, which range from 10 percent to 11.5 percent; the compaction curves show that the water content has a significant influence on the maxisma 1 dry density, and therefore, water content control will be required during con.

struction. Based on the data obtained during this test fill program, the water content at time of placement should be restricted to water contents within the Modified Proctor envelope defined by 9Fi MMPD.

)

Tests on Class II Soil Other than Test Fill Material: {

As indicated above, the percentage of fines passing the No. 200 I l

sieve varied from 20.2 to 27.8 percent in the test fill lanes. However, Class II material is defined as having a percentage of fines varying from 15 to 40

\

percent. It is expected that some of the backfill material will have a higher percentage of fines. Serefore, to determine the cogaction characteristics of Class II material with a higher percentage of fines, artificial laboratory sasuples were prepared with fine contents ranging from 18.0 to 51.2 percent (Fig 3) by combining on site meterials with varied gradations.

A series of grain sine analyses and compaction tests were performed on these samples to study the compaction characteristics. He cohesive nature of these samples provides the same meisture-density relationship exhibited in the test fill meterials. Se maximum dry density varied from 122.0 pef to 125.5 pef while the associated optimum water content varied from 10 per-cent to 11.5 percent as shows in Table II and rig 4.

{

For the entire range of Class II soil (15 to 40 percent fines),

it appears that the dry density and the optimum water content occur within a limited range. He amount of fine grained soil in Class II material has little effect on the optimum water content, but does have a slight effect, as much as 6%, on the magnitude of the maximum dry density, shear Stremath and Consolidation Tests:

Te determine the strength and consolidation characteristics of the Class II backfill material in its compacted state, unconsolidated.u Jrained and consolidated. drained triaxial compression tests and consolidation tests j

1 were performed on unsaturated and saturated samples. Se samples for the '

various tests were prepared with a range of water contents and densities and were tested at stros and saturation levels anticipated in the field.

l The results of the testing program, shown on Fig 5, indicate that l r

the strength of the unsaturated samples is affected by the degree of saturation and is considerably higher than the strength of saturated samples. The shear strength increases with a decrease in percent saturation due to the apparent -

cohesion resulting from capillary action. Since most of the fill material will

{

be submerged and eveetually saturated , the strength parameters should be based e

on saturated consolidated drained test results. De results of these tests are presented on Fig 6. These strength tests show that the Class II backfill material is basically a cohesionless soil with an effective angle of frictic...

i, equal to 36.5 degrees at 90% Maximum Modified Proctor Density.

As shcara en Fig 7, consolidation tests on saturated samples show individual e-log P curves with similar compression characteristics for the various densities tested. This implies that only a small improvement is reclised in the compressibility characteristics by increasing the density in the dense state. Any settlemmat that does occur in Class II soil will be relatively small and will occur during construction.

FIELD TESTING The field testing program for Class II soil was similar to the program for Class I soil in that test lanes were constructed and field density tests conducted in three locations within each lane. Major differences in the program for the two different materials include the use of thinner lifts, a greater number of passes, and the use of both static and dynamic compsetion equipment. The Class II test lanes which are located on Fig 8 include Lane Nos . 1, 2, 6, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21.

As esplained in the Class 1 test fill report, it was originally intended to test Class I soil in Laue 1 by *.asing tan fine sand borrowed from the area of the intake canal. It was found that the cisyey sand could not be segregated from the tan fine sand using conventional emesvating equipement.

Therefore, Lane 1 developed into a class II lane and is reported herein.

As a first step, a four-foot-thick loose lift of Class II clayey sand una placed in 14ae 1 to determine the increase in density as a femmetion of dapth for a given compaction procedure.

Figures 9A and 93 shows the density profile in Class II soil after 0,1, 4, 6 and 10 passes with the Raygo 600 vibra-tory roller.

When the Raygo 600 was found to have an unsuitably low acceleration and frequency, Lane 1 was subjected to an additional 10 passes with the Romag 200, a roller with acceptable dynamic properties. However, even after rolling with the Romag 200, the clayey sand did not show any density increase with dep on a thick, loose lift in a manner similar to the Class I gray fine sand tested l in Lane 3.II f From these results, it was established that Class 11 soil could '

act be placed in thick lif ts; therefore, the remainder of the Class II testing program was limited to s/x and eight inch loose lif ts with a variable number of I passes of the roller.

It is saticipated that some drying of the backfill material may be required for the placexet of Class II backfill. Therefore, a method of mixing and drying was investigated on Lane 1 using a rotary pulverizer. The mixing process produced a uniform Class 11 soil with a range of fines (clay and silt) from 21% to 28% and a HMPD ransing from 118.5 to 121.5 pounds per cubic foot.

The water content was lowered to an acceptable range with the pulverizer, and therefore, this piece of equipment is recommended for backfill placement.

ootesW4 tie 6e teeenasEtne,ie,c. g, The first roller tested on the six to eight inch lif ts was the Essick VF-72 vibratory sheepsfoot roller. The VF-72 equipment rolled three lif ts with ten passes on each lif t in Lane 6. Figures 10 through 14 show the construction of Lane 6 and other Class II test lanes. nree lif ts were rolled with the vibratory mechanism turned on followed by three lif ts with the vibratory mechanism turned off. The average denatties presented as a percentage of NHPD are shown in Table III and Fig 15. Although the VF-72 possesses excellent dynamic properties.

(see Table IV) it only achieved a dersity equivalent to 93% MPD. With the 3- l vibrator turned off, the percentage was no higher than 90%. I G

Rubber-cirs rollers were tested in Lanes 12,15 sad 17. A small tow-type, rubber-tired roller referred to as the " Lincoln Towed Roller", weighing less than ten tons and having an average tire pressure of 25 pai, was tested s

on Lane 12. Ten passes per lif t on three six-inch lif ts produced a density equal to 92% HMPD, as shown on Fig 15. In Lane 15, a larger 25-ton rubber-tired roller, the Ferguson SRR7, was tested on a three lif t section. The highest average density achieved w 931 EPD. ne Ferguson RT1005, a 50-ton rubber-tired roller, was used in Lane 17. This equipment achieved a value of 962 MMPD af ter 10 passes per lift 12 inches below the measured surf ace of the lane.

However, this roller must be towed by a large tractor and, consequently, it is too awkward to be used efficiently in the BSEP excavation.

The first smooth drum vibratory roller to be used on the thin Class II lif ts was the Ferguson SP-65. This roller was tested twice-in Lane 6 with six passes per lif t and in Lane 21 with 10 passes per lif c. In both lanes, the highest average density achieved was 9'3% HMPD.

i E. D'APPO LO NI A 1 esmemnme amonesses.ine. 9, a The Modified Raygo 600 was tested once in Lane 6 and twice in Lans 13. The Modified Raygo 600 differs 'from the stock model in weight l

(one ton heavier) and frequency (increased free 22 to 26 cycles per secced).  ;

In Lane 6. the water content of the soil was 51 to 72 wet of optimum which  !

o .

apperently limited the possibility of achievise an average density greater l

L than 90% MtPD. The roller was retested in Lane 13 under the same lif t-pass f

combination as Lane 6 or three, six-inch lifts with 10 passes per lift. The results were 911 M90 in the' surface lif e and 942 letPD in the botton lif t.

To determine if each lift received additional compaction from the placing and rolling of subsequent lifts, two more six-inch lifts were placed on the first three lif ts in Lane 13 for a total of five lif ts. Figure 16 shows that the ten passes on additional lifts increase the density to a depth of at j{

least two feet. 3 As for the Modified Rayso 600, the Romag 203 was tested three times on six-inch lif ts--once in Lane 12 and twice in Lanw 14 This roller was successful in achieving 962 DetFD in the bottom lift of a three-lif t section in Lane 12 and 972 letpD in the bottom lif t of three lif ts in Lane 14. After toepacting two more lif ts, with 10 passes in Lane 14. for a total of five lif ts, Lift C increased from 88% to 95% and Lift A remained at 962 to 97% 70fD (see Fig 16). These data again illustrate that with vibratory rollers on clayey sand, compaction is effective below the six-inch lif t that is being rolled.

In Lanes 18 and 19, two Vibroplus rollers were tested on three six-inch lif ts at 10 passes per lif t. The CA-25, which was used on Lane 18, is a self-propelled model with dynamic properties stallar to the CH-43. It was not used in the Class I test fill program because it arrived af ter the comple-i tion of the program. As explained in the Class I test fill report, the 0:-43

is a towed roller weighing about five tens and possessing excellent dynamic properties. Although Fig 15 shows that the G-43 achieved a higher denalty (96% !strD) than the CA-25 (94% HMPD) one foot below the surf ace of the three lif t section. the CA-25 compacted the surface lif t to a higher density (942 NtPD) than ag of the rollers used.

The CA-25 was tested again in Lane 20 using only five passes per lift. As with most of the previous tests, the highest everage density (911 NtPD) was measured one foot below the surface lif t. Both this test and the test en the Ferguson IP-65 in Lane 6 suggest that five passes with an approved vibratory roller on a six-inch lif t should satisfy the 90% WPD criterion. l Hand Compactors:

Three hand compactors were tested.with Class 11 soil la Lane 16.

These include the Wacker 550, the Essick VF-24 and the Wacker 130. The first two compactors are the vibraking plate types which will be used on the Class i backfill while the last type is an impact or " rammer" type transmitting high amplitude blows near le cycles per second. A summary of their characteristics j is presented in Table V. A 20-foot by 20-foot area was compacted with each compactor using the "three, six-inch lift--10 pass combination" that was cosanon to the program. The results which are presented in Table III indicate that the vibrating plate compactors exceeded 90% )9(PD in only one of the four lif ts tested while the Wacker 110 reached 93% and 96% MMPD.

An interesting aspect of this segment of the Class II test fill pro-gram is a test made earlier in Lane 2 with the Wacker 110. A pit, five feet by ten feet in plan and three feet deep, was excavated and backfilled in six-inch lif ts with five passes per lif t. Densities obtained were 101%, 95% and 95% MMPD.

l E. D'AP PO LO N I A coassume enesesses.ame. 11' The explanation for the tests in 1.aae 2 having higher densities on the warage with half the number of passes made on I.ame 16 is attributed to the confining effects of the walls of the pit. Therefore, it appears that the densities obtained by the vibrating plate compactors will increase when they are used in a confined area.

Conclusions Regarding Field Testing:

the results of the Class II tant fill program show that Class II soil may be effectively compacted with vibratory rollers. Unlike class I material Class II soil requires placement in thin lifte and compacted with a greater ausber of passes. For a lift thielramas of six inches and 10 passes, three different rollers (Vibroplus G-43, Ferguson RT1005 and gomas BW-200) compacted the soil to an average density greater than 95% MMPD. The Vibro-l plua Q1-43 is less cumbersome and considerably faster to operate than the other two.

Four more rollers, which include the fibroplus CA-25, the Modified Raygo 600, the Ferguson SP-65 and the 25 ton Ferguson SRR-7, compacted the Class II soil to 93% to 94% M1PD with ten passes. For the initial placement of Class II backfill, it was reccamended that any of these seven rollers be used with 20 passes on a six to eight inch loose lift. ThAs specification was reduced to 15 passes af ter the initial results of the field density tests be-came available during backfilling operations. It is suspected that the number of passes might be reduced to as little as five passes on a six to eight inch lift.

l Concerning hand compaction, the Wacker 110 "ranner" type was success-  !

ful in obtaining 95% HMPD or higher with tes passes on a six-inch lif t. This l criterion may also be reduced to five passes for compacting in confined areas to produce densities in excess of 90I HMPD.

During the test fill program, a tractor-drawn rotary pulveriser was used in mixing and dryias the Class !! satorial prior to compaction. It was found that the use of the pulveriser resulted in a uniform fill with a water content close to optimum. The test fill data indieste that the use of the rotary pulveriser was highly successful in maintaining the silt and cisy content within a 6% range and the water content within 22 of the optimum.

EFFBCT OF CRAIGE IN BACKFILL PROCEDURE W DTMANIC RESPoll8E the dynamic response characteristics of the site and the structures have been based on certain asswtions regarding backfill for the SSEP plant.

Since a portion of the backfill will be Class II asterial, it is prudent to compare dynamic properties for the Class II backfill with those used in pre-vious analyses, notably References 4 and 5. ,

The dymanic properties used in References 4 and 5 for the fill above the Miocene sand are summarised below with similar properties for the Class Il material in place.

It is concluded that the difference in the properties cited above are negligible and that the dynamic response will not be appreciably different with Class II material.

1 00llCLUS10018 AW RE00MIEllDATIml8 Due to the availability of Class 11 soil, a testing program has l

been conducted to determine its esapaction characteristics and engineer-ing properties in the laboratory and in the field. -

The testing has established that C1se 11 soil has a definite moisture-density relationship and should be cetrolled as backfill by IIndi-fied Proctor criteria. Based on the results of the field and laboratory testing, a criteria as determined by ASTM Designation D-1557-667 has been selected for control. The resulting backfill will be adequate to resist both static and dynamic loads and will not significantly alter the dynamic response previously calculated.

Dsring the test fill program, three rollers compacted the soil to a density greater than 952 lefD after ten passes on a six to eight inch loose lift. These rollers are:

1. Romag 200 (Vibratory - self propelled)
2. Vibroplus 01-43 (Tamed Vibratory)
3. Ferguson RT1005 (50-Ton Towed Rubber Tire)

Four more rollers were found to compact the soil to 931 and 942

1. Modified Raygo 600 (fibratory - self propelled)
2. Vibroplus CA-25 (Vibratory - self propelled)
3. Ferguson SP-65 (Vibratory - self propelled)
4. Ferguson SRR7 (25-Tom Rubber Tire)

All of the above vibratory rollers have the added advantage of being able to compact Class I soil according to Reference 1.
