Project code & name: 196_Football Stadium Zliten
Purpose: Request for Geotechnical investigation and Geodetic
survey
Date: 06.05.2014.
N0: 196_GT

Dear Sir,
Before the structural work commence it is important that a soil study is
undertaken so as to determine the condition of the soil. This will allow us to design
the right foundation for the building. What we will require is geotechnical
investigation of the soil which will be carried out by experienced geotechnical
engineer and his team. The results of the investigation should be based on the tests
carried out in specialized laboratory on soil examples from bore holes took from the
site, as showed in the attached drawing.
The tests should at least include the following:
1. Weight density of the each soil layer (if any),
2. Angle of shearing resistance,
3. Max. level of the underground water,
4. Corrosive hazard due to salt in the water,
5. Calculation of the bearing capacity of the soil in foundation depth for type of
foundation used in design,
6. Calculation of the foundation settlement.
After all the tests are done, the results should be presented in the technical
report, together with the geological profile of the terrain drawing with type and
thickness of each soil layer (if any), level of underground water, place of bore holes.
Also, in the report should be attached all diagrams and data which are the result of
the tests.
In the attachment you will find a CAD drawing in PDF format showing the
positions with our suggestion where the bore holes should be taken bearing in mind
the position of the stadium and size of a site. We recommend that boreholes are
drilled in grid positioning with spacing not more than 75x76 m in order to get as
much diverse data as possible for this size of a site. We recommend a depth of 15
meters to get a clear data and good understanding of the soil condition.

Also, for further development of the design, both structural and architectural,
we need the following data:
1. Geodetic survey of the site,
2. Data about sewerage system (position, diameter, position and depth of the
manholes etc.) and
3. Data about water system (diameter, water pressure etc.)
which are available to connect from the inner sewerage and water system of the
stadium.

Should you require any further information or assistance from the structural
department of Libya Design/+381 Design please do not hesitate to contact us.
