Bore Log Details

The bore log details soil conditions and SPT refusal depths at 1.25m, 2.75m, 6.25m, and 10m. Laboratory tests found weathered soft rock from 1.5-2m with a specific gravity of 1.95. Medium dense rock was encountered from 7.5-10m. Calculations determine the safe bearing capacity to be 368.5 kN/m^2 and ultimate bearing capacity to be 382.74 kN/m^2.
