INTRODUCTION General
This report has been prepared for the proposed reconstruction of Structure G-324 and
Structure B-395 near Dunphy in Eureka County, Nevada. A site plan for the project is
presented as the Project Location Area Map in Appendix A. For a more detailed description,
see the contract plans.
Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this report is to provide information regarding the subsurface soil conditions
at the proposed project site. This report also provides geotechnical design recommendations
for the structure foundations proposed for this project. The scope of this report consists
primarily of geotechnical investigation, analysis, and recommendations for both design and
construction. The investigation included gathering information obtained from previous
subsurface explorations, soil sampling, and analysis of field and laboratory testing data. This
report includes boring logs and summaries of test results from both the field investigations
and laboratory testing. These may be found in appendices B and C, respectively.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located on Frontage Road EU-02 north of I-80 in Eureka County,
approximately 25 miles east of Battle Mountain and approximately 25 miles west of Carlin.
EU 02 runs roughly southwest to northeast at the location of the proposed replacement
structures. Preliminary plans indicate the new bridge G-324 will be a two lane, three-span
structure, constructed on the new alignment, which has been shifted slightly to the southeast
of the existing structure. The new bridge B-395 will be a two lane, single-span structure,
also constructed on the new alignment, slightly to the southeast of the existing structure. The
original two lane bridges were constructed in 1938, G-324 as three-span structures, and B-
395 as five-span structures.

GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS and SEISMICITY The site is founded primarily in alluvial deposits (Qa, Qal) .1,2 These deposits are generally
light to medium brown clayey silts and sands with some gravel and poorly- to well-graded
light to medium brown sands and multi-colored gravels where samples were taken (See
Photos 1 through 5).

The ground surface at the proposed location for the replacement Structure G-324 is
approximately 4640 feet of elevation.
The alignment for the proposed replacement Structure B-395 lies at approximately 4630 feet
of elevation and is relatively flat, but slopes very gently to the west-northwest, in the
direction of river flow.
The project location is approximately 17 miles northwest of the Dry Hills Fault and 6 miles
west of an unnamed fault.2
FIELD INVESTIGATION Structure G-324. The Geotechnical Section conducted subsurface investigations at the
proposed project site in September of 2010 and November of 2011. Subsurface soil
conditions were explored in the investigation by drilling three boreholes placed around the
proposed location for the new structure. The approximate location of each borehole is shown
on the Structure G-324 Borehole Location sheet in Appendix A. Drilling was accomplished
with a Diedrich D-120 drill rig equipped for soil sampling, using 6-inch hollow stem auger
on boreholes DBR-1 through DBR -3. Soil samples and standard penetration resistance
values (N-Values) were obtained utilizing the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) procedure as
set forth in AASHTO test number T206.
Boreholes DBR-1 through DBR-3 were drilled to depths between 50.8 feet and 108.9 feet.
Surface elevations were obtained for the borehole locations by surveying from known
elevation points. Groundwater was encountered during drilling in DBR-1 at a depth of 25
feet.
The uncorrected blow counts are shown on the boring logs in Appendix B. All soil samples
were classified, both visually and using laboratory data, using the Unified Soil Classification
System (USCS) described in ASTM test number D2487.

Structure B-395. The Geotechnical Section conducted subsurface investigations at the
proposed project site in August and September of 2010 and October of 2011. Subsurface soil
conditions were explored in the investigation by drilling four boreholes placed near the
proposed locations for the bridge foundations. The approximate location of each borehole is
shown on the Structure B-395 Borehole Location sheet in Appendix A. Drilling was
accomplished with a Diedrich D-120 drill rig equipped for soil sampling, using a 3-½” tri-
cone bit with bentonite slurry on boreholes DBH-1 and DBH-3, and 6-inch hollow stem
auger on boreholes DBH-2 and DBH-4. Soil samples and standard penetration resistance
values (N-Values) were obtained utilizing the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) procedure as
set forth in AASHTO test number T206.
Boreholes DBH-1 through DBH-4 were drilled to depths between 14.5 feet and 110.4 feet.
Surface elevations were obtained for the borehole locations by surveying from a known
4
elevation point. Groundwater was encountered during drilling between 3 and 10 feet below
ground surface in the boreholes.
The uncorrected blow counts are shown on the boring logs in Appendix B. The energy
transfer ratio (ETR) for the drill rigs are: Unit 1082 – 86%, and Unit 1627 – 74%. All soil
samples were classified, both visually and using laboratory data, using the Unified Soil
Classification System (USCS) described in ASTM test number D2487.

LABORATORY ANALYSIS
Structure G-324. Laboratory tests were performed on the samples collected from the
boreholes near Structure G-324. The testing program consisted of sieve analyses, moisture
and unit weight, Atterberg limits, and one consolidation test. The results of this testing
program show that the soils consist mostly of silty sands, with some silts, gravels, and clays.
Dry unit weights ranged from 59.6 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) for sample DBR-1 K1 (silty
sand), to 129.1 pcf for sample DBR-2 L2 (clayey sand with gravel). Further information is
presented in the summaries of test results in Appendix C.
Structure B-395. Laboratory tests were performed on the samples collected from the
boreholes near Structure B-395. The testing program consisted of sieve analyses, moisture
and unit weight, and Atterberg limits. The results of this testing program show that the soils
consist primarily of silty sands, with some lean and fat clays, gravels, and silts. Dry unit
weights ranged from 80.0 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) for sample DBH-2 I1 (silty sand), to
108.1 pcf for sample DBH-2 J2 (clayey sand with gravel). Further information is presented in
the summaries of test results in Appendix C.
DISCUSSION Structure G-324. Following the field investigation and laboratory testing, the soils near
Structure G-324 were identified as primarily silty and clayey sands (49%), elastic silts (28%),
with the remainder composed of assorted gravels, clays and silts (23%). Borehole DBR-1
was drilled for both piers, borehole DBR-2 was drilled for the east abutment, and DBR-3
was drilled for the west abutment.
Structure B-395. Following the field investigation and laboratory testing, the soils near
Structure B-395 were identified as primarily silty sands (61%), with the remainder of the
soils comprised equally of gravels, clays, and silts (13% each). Boreholes DBH-1, DBH-3,
and DBH-4 were drilled for the southwestern abutment, and DBH-2 was drilled for the
northeastern abutment.
Liquefaction is unlikely to occur due to soil plasticity and density, as well as low seismic
accelerations experienced in the region.

Excavation
All excavation shall be performed in accordance with the NDOT 2001 Standard
Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction3. The contractor shall be responsible for all
necessary shoring for any excavation and/or construction.
FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS
We recommend driven pile foundations, using driven closed-ended pipe piles for both
replacement structures G-324 and B-395. The pipe piles should be 18 inches in diameter
with the nominal wall thickness of 0.5 inches and Grade 3 steel.
The estimated pile lengths were determined based on bearing capacity graphs and drivability
analysis.
This report provides the bending moment, shear, and deflection diagrams for the embedded
piles under the controlling loading conditions. The Structural Engineers need to verify that
the structural strengths are in excess of the structural demands.
The proposed pile foundation arrangements by the Structural Engineers for Bridges G-324
and B-395 are as follows:
BRIDGE FOUNDATION PILES
2 pile rows per support group
G-324
B-395
Abutment 1 6 per row 7 per row Pier 1 12 per row N/A Pier 2 12 per row N/A Abutment 2 6 per row 7 per row
Since the proposed pile group arrangements are simple (two rows of piles per support), the
group capacity was analyzed using Simple Static Equilibrium (“Push-Pull” couple) method
to calculate axial compression, axial pull-out, and lateral loads on top of each pile. The
applied overturning moments at the top of the pile groups were resolved into these axial
compression and axial pull-out loads using this method.

The proposed bottom of the pile caps elevations are as follows:
Abutment 1: 4652.05’
Pier 1: 4625.68’
Pier 2: 4623.56’
Abutment 2: 4649.51’
The Structural Engineer provided the following foundation design loading:

(A) Static Analysis:
(1) Geotechnical Resistance at Strength Limit State (AASHTO 10.7.3) Geotechnical resistance is the ability of the subsurface materials to support the loads
transferred to it by the pile foundation without failure of the subsurface materials. The pile
design ensured that the strength limit state considerations, as follows, were satisfied before
checking the service and extreme limit states.
Geotechnical resistance design at strength limit state includes (AASHTO 10.5.3.3):
• Axial compression resistance of single piles
• Axial compression resistance of pile group
• Uplift resistance of single piles
• Uplift resistance of pile group
• Horizontal resistance of single pile and pile group
• Scour effect on axial resistance at design flood (100-year event)
• Downdrag effect on axial resistance
9
Nominal (ultimate) axial compression resistance (AASHTO 10.7.3.8.6) of single pile was
performed using the DRIVEN program, utilizing Nordlund/Thurman and Tomlinson
methods. The estimate of pile nominal (ultimate) bearing resistance versus pile tip elevations
for 18-inch closed–ended pipe piles are presented in the following graphs. Frictional
resistance in the embankment fill has been ignored. Pre-augering within the embankment fill
is mandatory.

Since the pile resistance will be verified in the field using a dynamic measurement combined
with signal matching analysis (e.g., PDA + CAPWAP), the geotechnical resistance factor (φ)
for the strength limit state of 0.65 (AASHTO Table 10.5.5.2.3-1) shall be applied to the
nominal (ultimate) axial compression to evaluate the design axial capacities.
Pile group compression resistance (AASHTO 10.7.3.9): The pile group spacing for both
bridges is greater than 3.0 pile diameters; therefore, no axial group reduction factor applies.
Uplift resistance of single piles (AASHTO 10.7.3.10) was estimated in a manner similar to
that for estimating the skin friction resistance of piles in compression. Nominal (ultimate)
uplift resistance of single pile was performed using the DRIVEN program, utilizing
Nordlund and Tomlinson methods. The estimated pile nominal (ultimate) uplift resistance
versus pile length for 18-inch closed–ended pipe piles is plotted as skin friction on the
bearing capacity graphs on the previous pages. Frictional resistance in the embankment fill
has been ignored.
13
In this report, under static conditions, the resistance factor for uplift (φup) of 0.50 is used
since the pile resistance will be verified in the field using a dynamic measurement combined
with signal matching analysis according to AASHTO Table 10.5.5.2.3-1.
Since the pile foundations are in groups, the uplift resistance of the pile group (Rug) is
evaluated according to AASHTO 10.7.3.11.
The horizontal resistance of the pile foundation is calculated using the factored loads since
the strength limit state is under consideration, but the soils resistance is not factored
(resistance factor is 1.0) since they represent the ultimate condition. The strength limit state
for lateral resistance is only structural (AASHTO 10.7.3.12).
We understand that there is no horizontal load (shear force) on top of the piles under static
condition. Therefore, horizontal resistance of pile groups is not evaluated under strength limit
state. Horizontal resistance of pile groups will be evaluated at Extreme Event I (earthquake)
limit state.
Scour effect on axial resistance at design flood (100-year event), (AASHTO 10.7.3.6) was
ignored for bridge B-395, since NDOT Hydraulics Section has proposed scour
countermeasures to mitigate the 100-year flood event. Scour analysis is not applicable for
bridge G-324 since the structure does not span a waterway.
The pile foundation is designed so that the available factored geotechnical resistance is
greater than the factored loads applied to the pile, including the downdrag, at the strength
limit state. The nominal pile resistance available to support structure loads plus the
downdrag is estimated by considering only the positive skin and tip resistance below the
lowest layer contributing to the downdrag.
Since all piles resistance are based on combination of skin friction and end bearing and the
pile tips will bear in very dense soils and the equivalent footing will be located within very
dense granular soil or very stiff to hard cohesive soil , the possibility of downdrag force on
piles are negligible.
14
(2) Geotechnical Resistance at Service Limit State (AASHTO 10.7.2) All pile movement criteria are evaluated under the service limit state loading.
Checking the design at the service limit state loading involved checking the following pile
movements (AASHTO 10.5.2.1):
• Vertical Pile Movement (Settlement) : AASHTO 10.7.2.3
• Horizontal Pile Movement: AASHTO 10.7.2.4
• Horizontal Pile Movement due to scour at design flood (100-year event): AASHTO
10.5.5.1.
• Overall Stability: AASHTO 11.6.2.3
The geotechnical resistance factor (φ) of 1.0 and load factor (γ) of 1.0 is used in this limit
state to assess the ability of the foundation to meet the specified deflection criteria (AASHTO
10.5.5.1).
• Vertical movement (AASHTO 10.7.2.3) of the pile groups are evaluated for both
bridges B-395 and G-324. Since the pile groups are spaced at a minimum of 3.0 pile
diameter center-to-center, and all the piles will be embedded in very dense soil with
SPT N60 of greater than 50 (refer to the boring logs), the pile group settlement is
expected to be less than 1.0 inch.
• (φup) Downdrag (AASHTO 3.11.8, 10.7.1.6.2, 10.7.2.5) on the piles is evaluated at the
service limit state where downdrag is caused by soil settlement due to static axial
loads applied (new bridge approach embankment fill) after the piles were driven.
Since all piles resistance are based on combination of skin friction and end bearing
and the pile tips will bear in very dense soils and the equivalent footing will be located
within the very dense granular soil or very stiff to hard cohesive soil , the possibility
of downdrag force on piles are negligible.
15
• Horizontal pile movement (AASHTO 10.7.2.4) induced by static horizontal loads is
evaluated at service limit state. The provided service loads by the Structural
Engineers show that there is no static horizontal (shear) loads on these bridges.
Therefore, there is no horizontal movement at service limit state.
• Horizontal pile movement due to scour (AASHTO 10.7.3.6): The ability of pile
foundation to meet the specified deflection criteria after scour due to the design flood
(100-year flood event), established by the Structural Engineer, is evaluated.
The evaluation of bridge B-395 pile horizontal deflection due to the scour depth at
design flood (100-year event) is ignored because the NDOT Hydraulics Section has
proposed scour countermeasures for the bridge B-395 to mitigate the 100-year flood
event.
Scour evaluation is not applicable for bridge G-324 since the structure does not span
a waterway.
• Overall Stability (AASHTO 10.7.2.1). The resistance factors used for overall
stability are as addressed in AASHTO Article 11.6.2.3.
Both bridge abutments will be supported on driven pile foundations which all the
piles will extend below the slope critical failure circle. The lateral loads on the
abutments will be resisted by the lateral capacity of the piles. Therefore, the overall
stability of the pile supported foundation is not evaluated.
16
(3) Geotechnical Resistance at Extreme Event I (Earthquake) Limit State (AASHTO 10.7.4)
The pile foundations of both bridges B-395 and G-324 are subjected to horizontal loads due
to earthquake.
The geotechnical resistance at Extreme Event I (earthquake) limit state includes checking:
• Pile axial resistance in compression
• Pile uplift resistance
• Pile horizontal resistance
• Liquefaction and Downdrag effects
The pile foundation is designed to have adequate axial and lateral resistance under
earthquake loading.
Geotechnical resistance factor (φ) of 1.0 for axial compression and 0.8 for uplift resistance
(AASHTO 10.5.5.3.3) were used in the analyses. Factored loads under Extreme Event I limit
state as specified by the Structural Engineers were used and are shown in the table below.
EXTREME EVENT I LOADS
LOADS per Pile
BRIDGE G-324 PIER 1
BRIDGE B-395, ABUTMENT
Axial in Compression (kips) 357 305 Axial-Pull Up (kips) 167 108 Lateral (kips) 34 30 P-Multiplier (Pm) 0.6 0.75
The calculations showed that the axial compression loading at this limit state was the highest;
therefore, Extreme Event I limit state is controlling the design.
Since the proposed pile group configuration is simple (two rows of piles), the pile group
capacity was analyzed using Simple Static Equilibrium (“Push-Pull” couple) method to
calculate the axial compression, axial pull-out, and lateral loads on top of each piles. Using
this method, the applied overturning moments at the top of the pile group were resolved into
axial compression and axial uplift loads.
17
The total applied horizontal loads under the Extreme Event I were divided by number of piles
per group to calculate the applied horizontal load per pile. The horizontal soil resistance
along the piles was modeled using P-y curves. The P-y curves were modified for pile group
effect (AASHTO 10.7.3.12).
The effect of pile group interaction was taken into account for evaluating the pile group
horizontal movement (AASHTO 10.7.2.4). The horizontal resistance of the pile group is less
than the sum of the single pile resistance. Weighted average P-Multiplier (PM) was
calculated based on the pile arrangement and pile spacing effect. The computer program
LPILE V.6 was used to calculate shear, moment, and deflection with depths for a single pile.
The P-Multiplier (PM) of 0.75 and 0.60 were used as input parameters in the P-y
Modification Factors for Group Action in this computer program for bridge B-395 and bridge
G-324 respectively.
Liquefaction screening was completed according to AASHTO 10.5.4.2. Potential for soil
liquefaction occurrence around these bridge foundations is minimal, due to high soil
densities.
Earthquake-induced downdrag (AASHTO 10.7.4, 3.11.8) was applied to the piles in
combination with other applied loads under Extreme Event I limit state (AASHTO 3.11.8).
Since all piles resistance are based on combination of skin friction and end bearing and the
pile tips will bear in very dense soils and the equivalent footing will be located within the
very dense granular soil or very stiff to hard cohesive soil , the possibility of downdrag force
on piles are negligible.
The following pages provide shear, moment, and deflection diagrams. The moment diagrams
versus depths for a single pile should be multiplied by a factor of 1.2 to account for variation
within the group for 4 pile diameter center-to-center spacing.

(4) Geotechnical Resistance at Extreme Event II (Check Flood: Scour 500-year
flood event) Limit State (AASHTO 10.7.4)
The geotechnical resistance at Extreme Event II (scour at check flood, 500- year event) limit
state includes checking the pile axial resistance in compression, pile uplift resistance, and
pile horizontal resistance using the geotechnical resistance factor (φ) of 1.0 (AASHTO
10.5.5.3.2) and the factored loads as specified by the Structural Engineers.
Scour evaluation is not applicable for bridge G-324 since the structure does not span a
waterway.
The NDOT Hydraulics Section has proposed scour countermeasures for the bridge B-395
replacement project. Therefore check flood (500-year flood) scour at Extreme Event II is not
applicable at this site and shall be taken to be zero since no changes to the foundation
conditions need to be considered.
(B) Dynamic Analysis: Pile Drivability (AASHTO 10.7.8)
Driving resistance of the driven piles (the ability of the piles to withstand stresses induced
during installation) was evaluated by wave equation method, using computer program
GRLWEAP 2010. In addition, the wave equation analyses determine the driving stresses and
blow counts based upon hammer size. Thus, the wall thickness and required hammer size
were determined to reach a desired capacity. In these analyses, Grade 3 steel was used to
allow for higher driving stress.
Pile driving stress (σdr) in steel piles, in both compression and tension, shall be determined
as:
σdr ≤ 0.9 φdafy
Where φda is obtained from AASHTO Table 10.5.5.2.3-1 and fy is the yield strength of steel
(ksi).
21
If a single acting diesel hammer is used, we recommend using Saximeter, developed by Pile
Dynamics, Inc. to record hammer stroke. Alternatively, for a single acting diesel hammer,
the provided equation on the NDOT Pile Driving Record form can be used to calculate the
hammer stroke.
We recommend pile driving points (shoes) be used on all piles to minimize pile damage
during driving.
We recommend that the following summary tables be included in the bridge construction
plans:

piles at these two bridges. The output shows that the piles are drivable and the compression
stresses on the piles are within acceptable limits. The following tables present the results of
these analyses.
22
LATERAL EARTH PRESSURE ON ABUTMENT AND WING WALLS The current design states that the bridge abutments will be cast in place pile caps with
abutment walls supported on the pile caps. The abutment walls will be seat-type, which can
deflect at the top and cause the lateral active earth pressure to develop. The following soil
parameters are recommended for the structural design of the abutment walls:

Static Active Earth Pressure Coefficient = KA = 0.278 (Coulomb’s equation for δ/φf = 0.5) Static Active Earth Pressure = KA γ H Static Active Earth Force by the Driving Wedge = ½ KA γ H2 ; (located at 1/3 from the bottom of the wall) (Static + Seismic) Active Earth Pressure Coefficient = KAE (Mononobe and Okabe): KAE = 0.63 for Kh = As = 0.25g (Static + Seismic) Active Earth Pressure = KAE γ H (Static + Seismic) Active Earth Force by the Driving Wedge = ½ KAE γ H2 Abutment Backfill Internal Friction Angle (φf) 32 degrees

General Seismic Design Parameters
Nevada Eureka County: Based on NDOT Bridge Structures Division policy:
• Peak Ground Acceleration Coefficient (PGA) = 0.25g
• Short-Period Spectral Acceleration Coefficient (Ss) = 0.60
• Long-Period Spectral Acceleration Coefficient (S1) = 0.20
AASHTO LRFD Table 3.10.33.1-1, Site Class Definitions: the site generally can be classified
as Site Class D.
Response Modification Factor = R = varies, see AASHTO Table 3.10.7.1-1
Vertical Acceleration Coefficient = 0 [AASHTO Appendix A11]
Poisson’s ratio for granular backfill material = µ = 0.30
Young Modulus for granular backfill material (Es; AASHTO Table C10.4.6.3-1):
• Es= 0.139N160 (ksi) ≈ 4.448 ksi ; for N160 = 32 (estimated)]
Shear Modulus (G) for granular backfill material = Es / 2(1+µ) ≈1.7 ksi

EMBANKMENT SETTLEMENT and STABILITY Settlement for the abutment approach fills were analyzed based on a maximum fill height of
25.5 feet, with a maximum of 2(H):1(V) side slopes. Based on our analysis, we estimate that
the proposed approach fills will experience less than 1 inch of total settlement. Slope stability
is not a concern for all embankment slopes as designed in the contract plans.
SCOUR PROTECTION NDOT Hydraulic Section has proposed that the Bridge B-395 approach slopes be armored
with a layer of Class 700 riprap. The riprap shall be underlain by a Class 1 erosion control
geotextile and a layer of Class 550/700 Riprap Bedding material conforming to Standard
Specification 706.03.07. The riprap slopes should not be steeper than a maximum 1.75:1
(H:V). The toe of riprap sections shall be constructed 1 foot below the streambed elevation. GEOTECHNICAL REPORT LIMITATIONS
Recommendations contained in this report are based on the information obtained from our
field explorations, laboratory tests, and observations of our Project Engineer. The nature and
extent of variations may not be evident until construction takes place. If conditions are
encountered during construction, which differ from those described in this report, or if the
scope of construction is altered significantly, the Geotechnical Section must be notified in
order that a review of our recommendations can be provided.
On-site aggregate potential quality studies were not performed. It is the sole responsibility of
the contractor to do his/her independent studies on the on-site aggregate productions if he/she
decides to use the on-site aggregate production as construction materials including but not
limited to roadway base aggregate, asphaltic concrete mix, and Portland concrete mix.
