EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) is planning to replace the existing Sportsmans Creek
bridge by the end of 2015. Studies in mid-2013 led by Kellogg Brown & Root (KBR) identified a preferred
option for the replacement bridge and road approaches. Golder Associates (Golder) carried out
geotechnical studies to assess alternative alignment options and in late 2013 carried out geotechnical
investigations focused on the preferred option. The study area is typical of low lying floodplain environments
in the coastal areas of northern New South Wales.
To the north of the creek, the alignment of the road approaches is underlain by low strength alluvial soils to
about 5 m depth, over weathered rock. Beneath the creek the rock surface slopes to the south, so that the
depth to rock under the proposed position of the southern bridge abutment is about 30 m. The soils on the
south side of the creek are low strength alluvial deposits, comprising mainly soft to firm normally to slightly
overconsolidated clay, with loose sands at about 5 to 9 m depth. The soils are desiccated and firm to stiff in
an up to 1 m thick layer at the surface. The alluvial deposits are potential acid sulfate soils with a high
potential for releasing acid into the environment if they are disturbed.
The rock observed in cores taken from boreholes was sandstone and siltstone, slightly weathered and of
medium to high strength. Noticeable was the abrupt transition from alluvial soils to competent rock and the
absence of a transitionary residual soil layer or deep weathering profile in the rock.
Groundwater is present below about 2 m depth, corresponding to the water level in Sportsmans Creek and
the nearby Clarence River.
Given the significant thickness of low strength soils, the proposed new bridge will need to be supported on
piles extending to rock. On the northern side, where the depth to rock is about 5 m, bored piles installed
using casing are an option that could be considered. The piles would need to be drilled into rock to form a
socket deep enough to resist lateral and axial loads. Other pile types, such as precast driven piles may also
be feasible, but may not provide adequate lateral load carrying capacity if they are unable to penetrate far
enough into rock.
On the southern abutment, and for piers within the river channel, driven open steel tubes are an
option. Steel tubes can be driven to significant depths through the water laden alluvial sediments from a
barge. Other pile types, such as precast piles and bored piles, whilst feasible, may be more challenging to
install from a floating platform.
The construction of approach embankments to the new bridge could involve the placement of up to 5 m of
new fill above the existing ground surface. The placement of fill will induce settlements in the low strength
alluvial deposits. Some of this settlement will occur during construction and could be about 600 to 2200 mm
for a 5 m high embankment, depending on the construction duration and adopted ground
treatment. However, significant settlement comprising ongoing primary consolidation and creep (secondary
consolidation) will occur after construction is completed. This ongoing settlement has the potential to
damage the pavement.
A typical ground treatment option aimed at reducing the amount of post-construction settlement is preloading
and surcharging with the installation of wick drains to accelerate the rate of primary consolidation. A
surcharge is an additional height of fill placed above the proposed finished pavement level. Our calculations
indicate that even after preloading (with a 3 m high surcharge and wick drains) for a period of 6 to 12
months, the post-construction settlement would be of the order 500 mm over the next 20 years and the
design settlement criteria stipulated by Roads and Maritime would not be achieved. A 5 m high embankment
could be built without the need for treatment; however application of an additional surcharge would require
the use of staged construction, geogrid or stability berms. The impact of the ongoing settlement on the
pavement performance would need to be managed by periodically topping up the road level.
The impact of flood events on the on the feasibility of this ground treatment option should also be
considered.
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
An alternative approach to ground treatment would be piled embankment approaches. A piled embankment
could be designed to meet the settlement criteria, with the aim of limiting ongoing pavement maintenance. A
piled embankment also avoids the need for additional quantities of fill that would be brought to site for
surcharging. The feasibility of piled embankments will need to be addressed at the design development
stage.
The new at-grade road approaches should be designed using a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of
4%. Roads constructed on new engineered fill in accordance with Roads and Maritime Specification R44
can be designed using a CBR of 12%, provided the CBR of the fill is verified during construction.
Other issues that will need to be considered include:
Sources and availability of fill for embankment construction as fill will need to be imported;
Managing the potential disturbance of acid sulfate soils during construction activities;
Managing construction during wet weather when trafficability across the low-lying alluvial floodplains is
likely to be poor; and
The design and construction of temporary works, such as working platforms for piling, which could
extend into the river and may be prone to flood events during the construction period.

INTRODUCTION
Terms of Reference and Objectives
Golder Associates Pty Ltd (Golder) was appointed by Kellogg Brown & Root Pty Ltd (KBR) to provide
geotechnical services for the Sportsmans Creek new bridge project. This bridge project is part of the statewide Bridges for the Bush Program that involves the replacement of selected timber road bridges around
NSW. KBR has been appointed by NSW Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) to carry out a
concept option assessment for the Sportsmans Creek new bridge project. The project also includes the
demolition of the existing timber bridge at Sportsmans Creek. The NSW Government has undertaken to
construct the new bridge by 2015.
Services to be provided by Golder are set out in our proposal (Ref. P37622022_001_P_Rev0, dated 20
February 2013) and variation document 137622029-004-L-Rev1, which outlines the change in investigation
methodology after completion of the desktop study. This report presents the results of a geotechnical
investigation focused along the preferred alignment option of the new bridge including approach roads.
The proposed new bridge and approach roads are on the southern outskirts of Lawrence in northern New
South Wales (shown in Figure 1, attached to this report).
1.2
Project Background
The Sportsmans Creek new bridge project involves the design and construction of the new bridge (and road
approaches) over Sportsmans Creek, and the demolition of the existing timber dare truss bridge. KBR
developed alternative route options, from which a preferred option has been chosen.
A Concept Design Team workshop was held on 25th and 26th June 2013, involving representatives from
KBR, Roads and Maritime, and appointed sub-consultants. At the workshop a preliminary evaluation of study
area constraints was carried out and the initial assessment of 6 potential routes was undertaken. As part of
the development of the route options Golder carried out a desktop study to assess geotechnical and
environmental constraints and opportunities. The results of the desk study were presented in Golder
Associates report (137622029_001_R_Rev2) Geotechnical and Environmental Desktop Study, Sportsmans
Creek new bridge, 4 September 2013.
During December 2013, Golder undertook geotechnical investigations along the preferred alignment. The
investigation consisted of borehole drilling, excavation of test pits, Cone Penetrometer Tests (CPTs), a
seismic refraction profile across the creek bed and laboratory testing. This report presents the results of the
geotechnical investigations completed by Golder and provides geotechnical input for the design development
of the new bridge and approaches.
1.3
Several documents and relevant previous reports were provided to Golder by KBR and Roads and Maritime
for review as part of this project. Reports of specific relevance to this project included:
Maclean Shire Council/ RTA, Environmental Impact Statement, Demolition of existing bridge and
construction of new bridge over Sportsmans Creek, Lawrence, May 2002.
RTA, Pavement Investigation Report Sportsmans Creek Bridge and Temporary Ferry Loading Areas,
March 2004, Report H/42330-B
The preferred option (Option 2), differs to the alignment investigated in 2002, previously referred to as the
Grafton Street alignment. The main difference between the preferred option and the previous Grafton Street
alignment is the position and orientation of the southern approach to Sportsmans Creek. The position of the
southern abutment of the current alignment is approximately 50m to the west of the previously investigated
option.

Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
2.0
The objective of the geotechnical investigations and laboratory testing was to provide information for use by
Roads and Maritime and KBR during the design and development of the new bridge. This information will
also enable construction tenderers to make an assessment of the impacts and implications of the geological,
geotechnical, hydrogeological characteristics, potentially contaminated soils and Acid Sulfate Soils that may
be disturbed during construction of the new bridge and approach embankments.
3.0
3.1
The 1:250 000 scale NSW Department of Mineral Resources 1970 Geological Map Maclean (series sheet
SH56-7) indicates that the study area is underlain, at depth, by geological rock units of the Bundamba
Group. The majority of the area is underlain by rocks belonging to the Late Jurassic Grafton Formation,
consisting of interbedded sandstone, clayey siltstone, claystone, and minor coal seams. Bedding is thin to
thick, and commonly with a ferruginous lateritic weathering profile.
The 1:100,000 Grafton Area Coastal Quaternary Geology Map indicates that the rock units in the majority of
the Lawrence area are overlain by Holocene Alluvial Deposits, which include levee and floodplain deposits of
sands, silts, clays, organic mud, and minor gravels. There is also potential for Pleistocene Beach sand
deposits under the alluvial deposits, which may be indurated (cemented).
There is a small area of in-channel bar deposits near the mouth of Sportsmans Creek, consisting of fluvial
sand, gravel, silt and clay. There is also indication of alluvial paleochannel (buried / in-filled river channel)
and inter-levee swale deposits in the vicinity of the study area, consisting of organic mud, peat, clay, silt, and
fluvial sands. The Quaternary geology of the study area is presented on Figure 2, attached to this report.
3.1.1
Topography
The topography within the study area is characterised by typically low elevation flood plain terrain associated
with the Clarence River and Sportsmans Creek systems. The typical site elevation within the study area
south of Sportsmans Creek ranges between RL 3 m to RL 5 m AHD. Elevations north of Sportsmans Creek
within the study area vary laterally and range from RL 1 m to RL 5 m AHD.
3.1.2
The dominant surface water feature is east-west running Sportsmans Creek, which connects to the Clarence
River, within the study area. Sportsmans Creek is about 100 m in width and drains in a south-east direction
under the existing bridge toward the Clarence River. Under low flow conditions, Sportsmans Creek may
experience an afflux of water from the Clarence River, where water from the Clarence River flows upstream
into Sportsmans Creek. There is a weir installed upstream in Sportsmans Creek, to prevent incursion of
saltwater into the wetlands.1
The inferred direction of surface and ground water flow is to the east along the surface, constrained by the
natural flood levies along the banks of Sportsmans Creek and through the sandy alluvium layers (charged by
flow from land at higher elevations north and east of the study area).
Wet ground conditions are likely to occur behind the natural flood levies for Sportsmans Creek.
3.1.3
Climatic Conditions
The geotechnical investigations (Golder 2013, Coffey 2002) and pavement investigations (RTA 2004) have
been conducted during different seasonal climatic conditions. Variation in climatic conditions (particularly
rainfall) will have an influence on the conditions encountered at the time of the investigations.
Historical rainfall records for the Lawrence Post Office, Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) Station Reference
058 033 and Brushgrove (Clarence Street), BoM Station Reference 580 006 were obtained from the Bureau

24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
of Meteorology website (www.bom.gov.au). Average monthly rainfall for the Lawrence station is summarised
in Figure 4. Due to several data gaps in the Lawrence data, Brushgrove (10 km South of Lawrence) rainfall
data has been summarised in Figure 5 to show the annual rainfall for the region over the past century. The
historical mean annual rainfall for the Lawrence area is 1070 mm per year (recorded at the Lawrence Post
Office), which is below the average annual rainfall limits for Roads and Maritime Climatic Zone 7, which
covers the NSW North Coast and South West Rocks.

Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
The current investigations (Golder 2013) were carried out during drier than average December climatic
conditions, with only 24 mm recorded in Dec. 2013, however 310 mm of rainfall was recorded in Nov.
2013, well in excess of the historical monthly average;
The investigations by Coffey in 2001/2002 were preceded by an extended period of several years of
lower annual rainfall, with the investigations being undertaken in August, a generally dry month; and
The pavement investigations by RTA in 2004 were carried out during March and the wetter part of the
annual cycle, however the annual rainfall was close to the average.
4.0
4.1
The scope of the 2013 investigation was previously outlined in Section 2 of this report and consisted of:
Dynamic Cone Penetrometer testing was undertaken adjacent to test pit excavations to assess in-situ
material consistency and/or density;
2 Cone Penetration Tests (CPT), including in-situ dissipation and vane shear testing, using a truck
mounted rig;
Geotechnical and environmental laboratory testing of recovered samples from the borehole and test pits
to determine design parameters, potential for contamination and prevalence of potential acid sulfate
soils (PASS).
The location of the completed geotechnical investigations, the concept alignment and previous investigation
locations that are relevant to the new bridge alignment are shown on Figure 1, attached to this report.
4.2
Boreholes
Borehole BH101 was drilled using a truck mounted drilling rig, supplied by North Coast Drilling Pty Ltd. The
technical objective of this borehole was to assess the nature and thickness of alluvial soils present and to
determine the bedrock level on the southern bank at the approximate location of the southern abutment.
The target depth of the borehole was governed by the requirement to obtain and recover a minimum of 6 m
of medium strength (or better) rock.
This hole was drilled vertically (90 from horizontal). Drilling through soils was carried out using auger and
rotary drilling techniques. Standard Penetration Tests (SPTs) were conducted at nominal 1.5 m intervals in
non-cohesive soils or undisturbed U50 (50 mm diameter) tube samples were obtained in soft and firm
alluvium soils.
On completion of the borehole, the hole was grouted to the ground surface.
The borehole drilling was carried out under the full time supervision of an experienced geotechnical engineer
from Golder Associates, who instructed the drillers on in-situ testing and sampling requirements, described
and logged the soil and rock encountered. Rock core obtained during the drilling was logged, boxed and
photographed on site. Point Load Index (Is50) strength tests were also conducted with the results of point
load strength tests included on the borehole log.
The borehole log, including results of point load index strength tests, core photography and explanatory
notes is presented in Appendix A.
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
No additional drilling was carried out on the northern abutment as the current position of the northern
abutment is similar to the previously investigation Grafton Street alignment which was previously investigated
by Coffey (2001/2002) which included cored borehole information that would be suitable for the purposes of
this investigation and report.
4.3
Test Pits
Test Pits were excavated using a 7 t tracked excavator supplied by Shipman Construction Pty Ltd to obtain
information on sub grade conditions along the alignment, to refine knowledge on the boundaries between
local, near surface geological units, and to obtain bulk samples for earthworks testing. Three of the pits
(TP101, TP102 and TP103) were excavated to depths of up to 3.0 m, or prior collapse of the test pit
sidewalls. TP104 was only excavated to a depth of 0.8 m due to the presence of a redundant buried service
at this location.
The test pits were excavated under the full time supervision of a geotechnical engineer from Golder
Associates, who logged the soils encountered, photographed the completed test pit and carried out in-situ
testing.
All the pits were backfilled with the excavated material, with the backfill material compacted using the bucket
of the machine. Completed Test Pits were mounded to allow for some settlement of the backfill material.
Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP) tests were conducted adjacent to the Test Pits for the purposes of
assessing the in-situ density or consistency of material. DCPs were conducted from the ground surface,
adjacent to each test pit to depths of up to 1.5 m or prior practical refusal.
The test pit logs, including test pit photography and results of DCP testing and explanatory notes are
presented in Appendix B.
4.4
4.4.1
Piezocone Tests
Two CPTs on the southern bank of Sportsmans Creek were carried out by NewSyd Geotechnical Testing,
using a truck mounted CPT rig.
The cone was pushed into the ground at a rate of about 2 cm/sec. During the test the following parameters
were recorded:
Sleeve friction;
Pore pressure;
Rate of penetration.
The data was transmitted electronically to a logger and computer aboard the rig, allowing real-time
observation of data plots, which are presented in Appendix C. These plots are uncorrected for the effects of
the cross sectional area behind the cone tip. The plots include the parameter, Friction Ratio, which is the
ratio of the sleeve to cone tip resistance. This is a useful parameter for aiding interpretation of soil types. In
general, a low friction ratio indicates a coarse grained soil (sands, gravel) whereas relatively high friction
ratios are indicative of fine-grained soils (clays and silts). This generalisation becomes less reliable at very
low cone resistance values.
4.4.2
Dissipation Tests
Two pore pressure dissipation tests were completed during the CPT testing at depths of 11.0 m and 14.5 m
in CPT-1. Generally these tests were targeted in soils in which excess pore pressures were generated
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
during cone testing. The objective of the tests was to assess the rate of dissipation of the excess pore
pressures generated by pushing the cone. This is useful for assessing the soil type, behaviour and rate of
consolidation of the compressible layers. The results of the dissipation tests are plotted graphically in
Appendix C.
4.4.3
Vane shear testing is an established method of assessing the in-situ undrained peak and residual shear
strengths of cohesive soils. Vane shear tests were carried out in cohesive soils because other types of insitu tests (such as SPT tests) involve significant amounts of sample disturbance and reliance on generalised
correlations.
Six Vane shear tests were undertaken using computer controlled vane shear testing apparatus from the CPT
rig using the procedure described in AS 1289.6.2.1 (1997). Summary plots of the Vane Shear Results are
provided in Appendix C. The vane shear tests were carried out in a new hole proximal to CPT101.
4.5
Seismic Profiling
Seismic refraction profiling was carried out along the overwater section of the alignment of the new bridge
and approaches. A single refraction line of approximately 105m in length was carried out from the northern
bank at Grafton Street to the southern bank, to the west of the boatramp. The start and end points of the
refraction line were selected to correspond to the anticipated positions of the northern and southern bridge
abutments. The seismic refraction profiling was undertaken by Earth Technology Solutions Pty Ltd.
The objective of carrying out seismic refraction profiling across Sportsmans Creek was to determine the
bedrock profile across the creek, noting that results from previous investigations (Coffey 2001/2002)
indicated significant variability in the bedrock topography. The seismic refraction profiling was selected to
provide a continuous profile along the new bridge alignment.
The interpretation of seismic velocities of the insitu soils and underlying bedrock provide an efficient and
continuous profile of rock head levels across the creek in advance of detailed investigations involving
overwater borehole drilling.
A separate refraction report and interpreted geological long section are available in Appendix D and have
been included in the inferred geological model.
4.6
4.6.1
Laboratory Testing
Geotechnical Laboratory Testing
A programme of geotechnical laboratory testing was carried out by SGS Australia Pty Ltd, on samples
obtained during the investigations from boreholes and test pits to classify and assess the engineering
characteristics of the soil and rock samples collected. The scope of laboratory testing carried out is
presented in Table 1.
Summary tables of test results and laboratory test certificates are included in Appendix E.

RESULTS OF INVESTIGATIONS
Previous Investigations
The previous Coffey investigation focussed on a new bridge following the Grafton Street alignment to the
east of the 2013 Golder Investigation of the preferred alignment. The Coffey investigation indicates that on
the southern bank of Sportsmans Creek the subsurface soils comprise an upper layer of stiff desiccated clay,
overlying soft to firm clays to RL 30 m AHD . Coffey reported that the conditions at the northern approach to
Sportsmans Creek consist of stiff to very stiff silty clays, and loose to medium dense clayey silty sand, to a
depth of 4 m, underlain by weathered sandstone and minor siltstone. The depth to weathered rock is
relatively shallow (4 m depth) at the northern approach to the bridge, and hence falls sharply to the south
(34 m depth).
The Coffey investigation also consisted of six test pits, five on the southern bank and one on the northern,
which investigated the shallow ground conditions. Two samples, one from each bank, were scheduled for
laboratory CBR testing, no DCP results were provided to determine correlations.
In 2004 Roads and Maritime also undertook six test pits in the vicinity of the existing bridge and also to the
west along Grafton St and around the boat ramp area on the southern bank. RMS-TP4 and RMS-TP5 on the
southern bank and RMS-TP6 on the northern bank were considered as part of the review of the concept
alignment. The test pits all encountered silty clays and clays to the depth of investigation which are inferred
to be alluvial deposits associated with Sportsmans Creek. Laboratory CBR values from these pits and also
DCP to CBR correlations were provided by Roads and Maritime.
Extracts (relevant borehole, test pit logs and laboratory test certificates) are attached in Appendix G.
5.2
The results of the most recent investigations indicate that on the southern side of Sportsmans Creek the
soils above rock head are mainly soft to firm, with little increase in strength with depth as shown in the SPT
results and CPT logs. It is inferred that the low shear strength soils have been deposited directly onto
medium to high strength rock, with no transition through residual soil or a weathered rock profile. This
suggests that scouring of the weathered rock profile occurred prior to placement of the existing soft soils.
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
10
The additional borehole (BH101) and CPTs (CPT-1 and CPT-2) to the west of the previous investigation
locations (refer to Figure 2) generally encountered similar conditions to those described above and in the
previous investigations. Borehole BH101 encountered thin topsoil layer, overlaying a firm desiccated clay
layer; beneath this firm layer, the borehole intersected loose sands and interbedded layers of soft to very soft
alluvial clays and silts. Rock head was at 32 m below the surface, from which coring commenced to recover
7.32 m of medium to high strength sandstone and siltstone.
The very low strength alluvial conditions at the southern abutment and approach to Sportsmans Creek were
confirmed in CPT-101 and CPT-102, which encountered soils with generally low Cone Resistance values (qc
< 1 MPa). Both CPTs and BH101 recorded a layer up to 4 m thick off loose sand between ~5 and 9 m below
the ground surface.
Test pits TP-102, TP-103 and TP-104 to the north of the proposed bridge location encountered a thin,
~1.5 m, thick layer of soft to firm alluvial clay overlying alluvial sands.
5.3
Geotechnical Units
For the purpose of characterisation of the subsurface conditions, the soil and rock types along the preferred
route alignment have been generalised into geotechnical units, which are summarised in Table 3. This
geotechnical model was developed to provide a geological overview for both soil and rock profiles and to

The undrained shear strength of Unit 1 cohesive alluvium was assessed using the following methods for the
purposes of assigning preliminary geotechnical design parameters:
Disturbed sampling and testing methods during borehole drilling, including SPT tests insitu and
penetrometer tests on undisturbed tube (U50) samples;
Using results from the CPT tests and adopting standard correlations, including correction factors, for
assessing undrained shear strength from cone tip resistance. The relationship between cone tip
resistance, overburden stress and shear strength is shown in Figure 6. An Nkt factor of 14 was used;
Laboratory testing comprising unconsolidated undrained triaxial (UU) and consolidated undrained
traixial (CU) testing.
A plot of the undrained shear strength of soils, as assessed using the above techniques, at the southern
abutment is presented in Figure 6.

The strength of subgrade materials along the approach alignments (southern and northern) has been
assessed using laboratory California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests and insitu Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
(DCP) test results. Reference to relevant historical laboratory and field test results has also been made in
this assessment (Coffey 2002 and RTA 2004).
Southern Approach
A total of three laboratory CBR test results have been reviewed and are considered relevant to the current
alignment. All CBR testing was carried out to RTA/RMS standards at the time of testing.
Laboratory results for Unit 1 indicate that in the desiccated crust, down to around 0.5 m, CBR values ranges
from 5 to 7 (Table 5), however lower values are expected below this crust based on the correlation of DCP
results to CBR (after applying RMS Specification T161 Penetration resistance of a soil) as shown in Figure
9.

A Geotechnical and Environmental Desk Study (Golder doc ref. 137622029-001-R-Rev2) was carried out
during the options development phase for the project. The environmental assessment component of the
desk study comprised of:
Review of selected publicly available historical information, including historical aerial photography.
Publicly available hydrological, geological and soils information relevant to the study area.
A site walkover was also conducted as part of the study to visually assess for potential contaminants within

The key geotechnical constraints for the new bridge and road approaches are:
the presence of more than 30 m thickness of highly compressible alluvial soils along the alignment on
the south side of Sportsmans Creek that may be subject to consolidation under proposed embankment
dead and live loads;
significant deepening of the rock head level from north to south along the proposed bridge alignment;
the absence of a weathering profile in the sandstone bedrock and an abrupt transition from low strength
soils to relatively high strength rock;
The effects of these features on the proposed new bridge design are discussed in the sections below.
6.1
Embankment fills are required to achieve design levels on the northern and southern bridge approaches. At
this preliminary stage, double sided embankments are proposed based on the current concept design and
the relative flatness of the approach plains. Embankments heights (above adjacent ground level) are
expected to generally be between about 1 m on the flood-plains and 5 m adjacent to the bridge abutments.
Southern Embankment
The depth to rock beneath the southern embankment is up to 30 m and is largely overlain by 25 m of very
soft to soft, normally consolidated cohesive alluvial sediments. A layer of loose sands 4 to 5 m thick overlies
these soft sediments and is overlain by a firm layer of clay close to the ground surface.
The rock contour drops steeply from the northern to southern embankment (inferred from borehole logs, CPT
refusal depths and seismic profiling) though the location of the southern extent of the Sportsmans Creek
channel is unknown at this stage.
Northern Embankment
Medium to high strength sandstone was encountered within 5 m of the surface in Coffey BH04, however was
not confirmed in any of the recent test pits excavated in this area. The test pits on the northern side of
Sportsmans Creek intersected firm to stiff alluvial clays and loose to medium dense sand layers.
6.1.1
Design and construction of embankments for Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) projects
are typically guided by project specific Scope of Work and Technical Criteria (SWTC) documents and Roads
and Maritime Earthworks Specifications (Roads and Maritime R44). The SWTC documents typically outline
the design criteria to which embankment and pavement performance is expected to comply, and Roads and
Maritime Specification R44 provides the minimum requirements for earthworks including foundation
preparation and fill compaction.
As outlined above the southern embankment is located over soft compressible soils and will require
additional measures to manage settlement. Embankment settlements can be considered in two parts,
namely construction stage settlements and post-construction settlements (PCS).
Construction stage settlements include the primary consolidation settlements and secondary
consolidation (creep) settlements that have occurred up until the end of construction;
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1

Embankments have the potential for large total, differential and creep settlements, and are often categorized
into three zones reflecting the different behavioural requirements placed on each. A diagram of these zones
is Figure 11.
Structural Zone A this is the embankment zone approximately 20 m behind the bridge abutment and
includes the 6 m approach zone. Post-construction settlements and differential settlements need to be
limited due to the proximity to the rigid abutment structure. The design may also require limiting the
lateral displacement induced on abutment piles.
Transition Zone B this is the transition zone between the Structural Zone and the general
embankment zone to provide a gradual increase in post-construction settlements. The length of the
Transition Zone is expected to be about 50 m.
General embankment Zone C this is the zone beyond the Transition Zone B.

We have carried out preliminary analyses to assess the performance and long-term serviceability of the
proposed bridge embankments, based on the longitudinal section provided for the preferred alignment
concept design.
Southern Bank
For Concept Design we have assessed the indicative settlement under embankment loading at the southern
bank using the ground profile encountered in CPT-1. The preliminary embankment design drawing provided
indicates that the proposed embankment height is up to 5 m above the adjacent ground level at the bridge
abutment.
We have carried out analyses for six and twelve month construction (preload) durations, and for different
embankment heights. We have not assessed a preload duration longer than 12 months, as this would not
likely comply with project time restrictions.

Due to the significant thickness of soft ground at the southern bank, it takes approximately 60 years to reach
90% of primary consolidation. For a six or twelve month preload duration, ongoing creep settlements are
expected to occur at a rate of about 100 to 150 mm per year for the first 5 years post-construction, reducing
to about 50 mm per year within 5 years.
This assessment considers foundation settlement as well as internal creep of the embankment fill. We have
used an embankment fill creep rate of 0.2% per log cycle of time. We have assumed that topsoil and
shallow unsuitable materials will be removed prior to embankment construction.
These indicative settlement values do not meet the Roads and Maritime criteria specified above (regardless
of design speed or pavement type), indicating that ground treatment will be required to reduce maintenance
requirements.
Settlement magnitude and rates may vary as a result of natural soil variability and the estimates given in this
report are based on the parameters we have used, which are likely to vary.
Northern Bank
We have assessed the settlements under embankment loading at the northern bank using the ground profile
encountered in BH4.
The results indicate that for an embankment height of 5 m and a six month preload duration, construction
settlements are in the order of 600 mm, and PCS are less than 200 mm over 20 years. Ongoing creep
settlements are expected to occur at a rate of about 10 to 15 mm per year.
These predicted settlement values indicate that Roads and Maritime total settlement criteria should be met,
but that a transition design will be required to meet differential settlement criteria.
6.2.2
A low embankment strategy, which consists of limiting embankment height to 1 to 2 m with occasional
asphalt correctional courses, is recommended for locations away from abutments where possible.
To apply this strategy, additional excavation may be required to meet the minimum earthworks thickness
requirements indicated by Roads and Maritime Specification R44 (typically about 1.2 m). If appropriate, lime
stabilisation may be considered as an option to reduce the depth of excavation required.
For higher embankments, the extent and depth of soft soils underlying the southern bank is likely to render
uneconomic or impractical options such as excavate and replace, stone columns or dynamic replacement.
Concrete injected columns or other pile options should be suitable to support the embankment in the
Structure Zone and partially in the Transition Zone.
An option to reduce PCS would be to apply a surcharge load during construction with the addition of wick
drains at nominal 1.5 m spacing to accelerate settlements during the preload period. To satisfy the project
time restrictions, the maximum allowable preload and surcharge duration is expected to be about 12 months.
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
23
The results of our preliminary assessment for 1.5 m and 3 m surcharge height options with wick drains are
provided in Table 12 and Table 13.

For a six or twelve month preload duration, ongoing post construction settlements are expected to occur at a
rate of about 100 to 150 mm per year for the first 5 years, reducing to about 50 mm per year within 5 years.
Note that to achieve 200 mm PCS, the preload and 3 m surcharge would need to be left in place for 5 years.
As the settlement shown above for the surcharge and wick drain ground treatment option does not comply
with typical Roads and Maritime criteria, the impact of the ongoing settlement on the pavement performance
could be assisted by periodically placing correctional top-up asphalt courses, but the Transition Zone is
likely to require concrete injected columns or other pile options to provide a reasonable transition from the
Structure Zone to the general embankments.
Additionally, a surcharge treatment option may not be a practical solution for Sportmans Creek due to the
impact of frequent flooding events on surcharge fill placement.
Embankment Stability
We have carried out limit-equilibrium slope stability analysis for short term (undrained) and long term
(drained) conditions at the southern embankment using the ground profile encountered in CPT-1. The
purpose of the short-term analyses was to check that the embankment would remain stable during
construction. We have modelled embankment batter slopes at 2(H):1(V), and southern bank slopes at
approximately 8(H):1(V) (as indicated by survey results). You advised that the embankment is to be set back
approximately 20 m from the creek.
We have assessed both the cross-section embankment stability and the longitudinal stability through the
abutment for a range of embankment heights. We have conservatively ignored the effect of reinforcement
provided by abutment piles.
We adopted target FoS values of 1.5 for long term conditions and 1.2 for short term conditions.
The results indicate that the cross-sectional stability of the embankment is achieved for both short and longterm conditions for embankment heights of up to 5 m, without the requirement for staged construction,
24 March 2014

stability berms or basal reinforcement. The longitudinal stability assessment indicates that for a 5 m
embankment height, an embankment offset from the creek of 20 m would meet design stability requirements.
Staged construction, stability berms or geogrid reinforcement are required where embankments are higher
than 5 m.
At this stage we have not assessed earthquake or flooding (rapid draw-down) conditions.

For the driven pile solutions in Table 14, consideration should be made for high pile driving stresses that may
be generated to adequately socket the piles into the sandstone bedrock.
Southern Abutment
Geotechnical and construction related issues associated with the southern abutment include:
Thickness of soft, compressible soils will result in additional down-drag forces and bending on piles.
Lateral capacity of piles in these soils is likely to be limited. Temporary works / foundation improvement
may be required depending on piling rig loads during construction.
Depth to rock (32m) is greater than availability of pre-cast concrete pile segments.
If driven concrete piles are adopted as the preferred foundation then these would likely need to be
spliced.
If bored or CFA piles are adopted as the preferred foundation option then large piling equipment would
be required.
Open driven piles (eg. Tubular steel) would likely plug during driving.
Bored and CFA piles would generate a significant amount of spoil which has been classified as PASS.
Spoil would need to be treated with lime prior to disposal or reuse.
Weak and compressible soils necessitate piles founding on rock as insufficient end bearing is likely
within the alluvial sediments. Further, Roads and Maritime bridge specifications stipulate that piles
found in sound and un-yielding rock.
CFA piles socketed into rock (subject to Roads and Maritime specifications).
Sportsmans Creek
Geotechnical and construction related issues associated with central (overwater) piers include:
Construction access limitations, due to navigational clearances under the existing bridge.
Variable thickness of soft compressible sediments that would generate down-drag forces and limited
lateral capacity.
The variation in pile length required would require pre-cast piles (either concrete or steel) to be custom
designed and manufactured to avoid the need for cutting and splicing piles.
24 March 2014
Report No. 137622029-005-R-Rev1
26
Bored and CFA piles would not be suitable due to the size of the piling rig required and restricted
access for a jack up barge. Piles would need to be constructed from a floating barge or a temporary
access bund constructed into the creek. Due to the torsional forces generated when socketing bored or
CFA piles into rock these may be difficult to construct from a floating barge and require spoil handling
and disposal facilities, therefore this may eliminate bored and CFA piling options for the overwater pier
locations.
Corrosion and durability of all pile types (concrete or steel) would need to be considered in the detail
design phase.
Management of construction related purge water / drilling spoil during piling works would need to be
taken into account during planning and construction work.
Additional lateral loads on the piles / piers from flooding and vessel impact would need to be taken into
account during the detail design phase.
The selection of either a pile group (eg. driven concrete piles) with a pile cap or large diameter piles
constructed with either a pile to column or blade pier configuration would largely be dependent on urban
design, waterway opening and cost criteria. A pile to column arrangement is likely to be the most cost
effective and practical solution.
Potential pile foundation options for the central (overwater) piers include:
Northern Abutment
Geotechnical and construction related issues associated with the northern abutment include:
The relatively shallow cover of soils overlying competent bedrock may limit the practicality of using precast driven (steel or concrete) piles due to the low lateral capacity of the soils.
Pre-cast concrete piles may need to be specifically manufactured / customised for this project due to
the relatively short length of the overall pile.
Pad foundation
Construction of a pad foundation would require extensive excavation and dewatering over a relatively large
area. Temporary excavation support would be required.
At this stage of the concept design, the recommended piled option consists of driven open ended steel piles
at the southern and mid-stream locations, and shallow bored piles on the northern embankment. Additional
input will be required when structural loading is known to better refine the foundation options.
6.3.2
provides recommended pile design parameters, which may be used for the design of bored pile foundations.
Piles designed using these parameters are expected to have settlements less than 5% of the pile diameter.
Additional analysis may be required to confirm pile settlements satisfy design tolerances once configurations
and design loads are finalised.

filling associated with river bank remediation and the construction and excavation of the boat ramp on the
southern bank of Sportsmans Creek may also exist within the study area.
Existing fill, if it is encountered beneath the footprint of the proposed alignment, should be removed prior to
placing new fill.
7.2
Salinity
Sportsmans Creek, particularly at the confluence with the Clarence River, has the potential to be highly
saline. A review of publicly available information suggests that under low flow conditions, an afflux of
saltwater can occur up the Clarence River and into Sportsmans Creek3.
7.3
Earthquake Rating
The methods of assessing the earthquake risk classification are outlined in the Australian Standard
AS1170.4 (2007) Structural Design Actions, Part 4: Earthquake Actions in Australia.
For the Grafton area, AS 1170.4 indicates a hazard factor of 0.05.
The governing condition for the site subsoil class is the thickness and consistency of the subsurface
materials beneath the foundations. Based on the depth to rock on the southern embankment and the
thickness of soft soils, a Soil Class E is assigned in accordance with Section 4.2 of AS1170.4 (2007).
For structures sited on sub-soil Class E, the design shall consider the effects of subsidence or differential
settlement of the foundation material under the earthquake actions determined for the structure.
7.4
Groundwater Management
Key issues to consider for the management of groundwater during construction include:
The high groundwater table, which will likely result in the requirement for dewatering of excavations.
The depth of excavations for structures such as pavements should be limited where possible;
Acid sulfate soil leachate from dewatering of excavations or wick drain discharge. Where potentially
acidic groundwater is encountered in excavations or produced from wick drain discharge, appropriate
measures and water treatment and dosing systems will be needed manage discharge water quality;
Groundwater fluctuations related to tidal influences and flooding events. Temporary sheet piling may
be required during construction to protect worksites from water inflow; and
Aquifer cross-contamination and flow due to penetrating works such as piling. The use of temporary
casing for bored piles or the use of driven piles would effectively mitigate piling related cross-aquifer
contamination impacts.
7.5
Temporary Works
Working platforms for piling rigs. The stability and bearing capacity of these platforms will need to be
assessed;
Installation of temporary sheet piling for dewatering activities and protection of work areas from flood
events;
Placement of bridging layers to address poor site trafficability during wet weather across the low-lying
floodplains.

To obtain adequate site information to proceed to detailed design, we recommend the following additional
site investigation is carried out:
1 x borehole to be drilled at every pier and abutment location (in order to meet Roads and Maritime
requirements for bridge design), to obtain a minimum 3 m of competent rock core. This additional
drilling could be completed during the detail design or prior to construction, to confirm the assumptions
on pile toe elevations adopted in the detail design.
Drilling of boreholes at central (mid span) piers would require the use of rig mounted on a floating barge
with the total number of additional overwater boreholes determined by the number of overwater piers.
Undisturbed samples obtained from the above boreholes to enable further laboratory testing such as
UU and oedometer testing to confirm the strength and compressibility of Unit 1 materials across the
site.
Additional laboratory testing on potential acid sulfate soils may be required to refine predicted liming
rates of excavated spoil, should the selected / final piling option generate significant quantities of PASS

INTRODUCTION
At the request of Golder Associates Pty Ltd (GA) on behalf of KBR, marine
seismic refraction testing was completed across Sportsmans Creek at
Lawrence, NSW as part of the geotechnical investigation for the proposed
bridge alignment.
The objective of the seismic study was to delineate the bedrock profile and
subsurface conditions within the bounds of the creek along the proposed
bridge alignment.
One seismic line was completed across Sportsmans Creek from starting
approximately 3m from the northern shoreline and extending to
approximately 5m from the southern shoreline. The location of the seismic
line is shown on the aerial photo site plan, Figure 425-1.
The seismic fieldwork was carried out on 30th November 2013. The data
acquisition was undertaken in accordance with engineering seismic
refraction practice as described below.
2.0
Seismograph
The seismic detector array used for the survey was a 24 channel
hydrophone array, with detectors at 5m intervals which was layed along the
river bottom.
A source-point spacing of 15m was maintained within the creek using
weighted markers tied to the hydrophone array to allow accurate source
positioning within the spread.
On the southern river bank 4 offset shot points were used positioned up to
75m from the end hydrophone. Due to the shallow rock expected to the
north (from previous drilling) and the existing houses and buried services
only 3 offsets were required on the northern embankment to 40m offset.
This resulted in reversed coverage seismic data with source - receiver
offsets of up to 170m, in accordance with accepted practice.
ET425.01
2.3
Seismic Source
Positioning
The seismic line was positioned as best possible along the proposed bridge
alignment using the aerial photo site plan provided. This alignment is
approximately 100m west of the existing road bridge.
Positioning along the seismic line was maintained by measuring and marking
along the hydrophone array prior to deployment. Offset shotpoints where
located by measuring relative to the end hydrophones using 100m tapes laid
along the ground surface.
Water depths along the seismic profile were measured by the seismic crew
using an echo sounder. A marker of the water surface level during these
measurements was placed on an existing post near the southern end of the
alignment at the boat ramp. This survey mark was picked up the project
surveyors and provided by GA following completion of the seismic work to
allow conversion of the measured water depths to RL AHD.
2.5
There was a reasonable high level of background seismic noise at the site
generated by vehicles on the adjacent road bridge and windy site conditions.
A few small vessels were encountered during seismic data acquisition.
The seismic signal was relatively weak in some areas due to the thickness of
relatively loose sediments.
2.6
All seismic data were recorded on hard drive and copied to the laptop at the
end of each field day. Field records were maintained on ETS Form ET1.1
Seismic Refraction Field Sheet on which the hydrophone array position and
source-point configurations, filename and equipment details were recorded.
A complete set of seismic data and field records has been archived in the
ETS seismic database.

INTERPRETATION PROCEDURES
The digital seismic records were examined on computer, and the first arrival
times were determined using FBPICK software. Generally the seismic data
was considered of good quality.
The seismic data were interpreted using the interpretation program
REFRACT 2006, which is based on the Intercept Time Method and the
Reciprocal Method in accordance with engineering seismic refraction
practice (Walker et al, 1991) as described briefly below.
The interpretation begins with segmentation of the T-X graph to identify
individual layers. Reciprocal time checks are determined automatically and
are edited manually to reduce any reciprocal time errors. Velocity analysis
follows using the computed Minus-Time Graph, derived from the reversed
overlapping phantomed data for each layer. Least squares fitted lines are
manually selected from each refractor, allowing lateral velocity changes
along the profile and the velocities are computed. The time depths and layer
thickness, which are computed automatically, are checked and edited to
eliminate minor errors.
The final output of the seismic refraction method is an interpreted seismic
section, which is a 2 dimensional representation of the earth beneath the
survey line. A number of discrete layers of differing seismic velocity were
interpreted with lateral velocity variations indicated within each layer.

APPENDIX A
GUIDE TO THE USE OF INTERPRETED SEISMIC SECTIONS
The results of seismic refraction surveys are presented as vertical sections
beneath the line of traverse. These sections show a two-dimensional
distribution of seismic velocities, which have been interpreted from first
arrival travel time data obtained in the field.
The following general summary is intended to assist in the understanding of
the interpreted seismic sections provided.
A1
Methods Of Interpretation
First arrival travel times obtained for individual source locations representing
the arrival at individual detectors of seismic waves which have travelled
through the earth via least-time paths are determined interactively from the
digital seismic field records. These times are plotted against distance from
the source, as travel-time curves. These times are examined, reviewed and
edited as necessary.
Further quantitative seismic interpretation, aimed at providing subsurface
depth and velocity information, is carried out using the intercept time or
reciprocal methods as appropriate. The interpretation method applied is
determined by the field procedure used, the nature of the subsurface at the
site, and by the objectives of the seismic study.
The interpretation provides a simplified seismic picture of the subsurface and
depends on a number of assumptions about its nature. The major
assumptions are:
i) the subsurface essentially consists of a series of discrete uniform
layers which may vary laterally in velocity,
ii) the boundaries between these layers are distinct. For the simpler
methods of interpretation, these boundaries are also assumed to be
planar, but can be highly irregular,
iii) The seismic velocities of successive layers increase with depth,
iv) Each layer is of sufficient thickness to critically refract energy, and to
produce a refracted wave arrival at the surface of sufficient energy to
be detected as a first arrival.
These assumptions demonstrate requirements of the interpretation
procedure for ideal conditions of which all of the requirements are unlikely to
be fulfilled in reality. The extent to which each assumption is valid may vary
ET425.01
from site to site and within a site. Consequently, at all sites, interpreted
seismic sections are a simplification of the actual subsurface velocity
distribution. The degree of simplification depends on the interpretative
method used, the amount of data available for analysis and the extent to
which the basic assumptions are violated at a site.
Some violations of the basic assumptions, such as diffractions from large
irregularities, and non-critical refractions, may be observed in the seismic
data or may be undetectable. Consequently the interpretation process is
partly subjective; other interpretations of the data are possible and may differ
considerably from the interpretation presented.
The effects of common violations of the assumptions are discussed in
Section A3, below.
Other effects, which may be relevant to the
understanding of the seismic sections, are discussed in Section A4.
It should be noted that, at a given site, these effects can occur in virtually
any combination and that, as a result, even highly complex subsurface
conditions may give rise to relatively simple-looking seismic sections.

Whiteley, 1978).
These experimental errors are inherent in the procedure and must be taken
into account in any use which is made of the seismic sections e.g., in
estimating the volume of material represented by each layer in a proposed
excavation.

Other Factors
Other common factors may lead to differences between the surface seismic
refraction model and reality. While not strictly due to assumptions made in
interpretation, they should still be taken into account, if the site conditions
dictate, in any further use of the interpreted sections. These factors are:
i) Three-dimensional effects
ii) Effect of water
iii) Anisotropy
A4.1
Three-dimensional effects
Effect of Water
The presence of water can greatly increase the field velocity of materials
which have low velocities in the dry condition. The effect is most
pronounced in soils or unconsolidated materials and is due to the difference
in seismic velocity between air and water (340 m/s and 1470 m/s,
respectively). It may however occur to a significant degree in materials with
dry velocities as high as 2000-2500m/s.
The change in velocity due to saturation is not usually related to the normal
trends of change in material properties with velocity. However, an increase
in cementation and/or decrease in porosity result in a smaller change in
seismic velocity due to saturation. In carbonate sediments, which are prone
to rapid diagenetic alterations, the pore type is nearly as important a factor
as porosity in the elastic behaviour and resultant seismic velocity. For
further discussion refer to Appendix B.
ET425.01
Anisotropy
Field velocities may vary with the direction of the seismic line. Usually if the
velocity measured in different directions agree to within 10% the condition
is treated as isotropic. Anisotropy is most common in steeply dipping
sediments or metasediments but can occur in other settings.
When measured across strike the velocity is an average for the different
materials present. Along strike the higher velocity of the fresher or more
competent materials is measured. This effect may be detectable from cross
spreads which show a markedly higher or lower velocity than longitudinal
traverses. However it may not be detected, depending on the relative
orientations of the traverses and the strike of the subsurface materials.
A more subtle form of anisotropy occurs in many sedimentary rocks where
the vertical velocity differs from the horizontal velocity. Normally seismic
refraction studies provide information on the horizontal velocities which are
commonly higher than the vertical velocities. The possible effects of
anisotropy are similar to those discussed above in section A3

BRIEF DISCUSSION OF ELASTIC PROPERTIES AND THE EFFECTS OF
FRACTURES, POROSITY, AND SATURATION ON SEISMIC VELOCITY

ET425.01
Saturation
For fresh rocks with velocities greater than about 3000m/s the relationship
between dry density and P wave velocity obtained from sonic measurements
on rock samples is fairly well controlled. However, at low velocities, in
weathered rocks a greater scatter of velocities is evident. Weathering tends
to decrease both the P wave velocity and the density, and to increase
porosity. Hence the degree of saturation is very important for weathered
rocks.
For dry rocks P wave velocity decreases rapidly with increasing porosity
because the velocity in air (340m/s) is much less than the velocity in the rock
matrix. For dry rock P wave velocities greater than about 3000m/s porosity
is usually relatively low.
The effect of saturation is more complex for rocks below about 3000m/s and
porosities in the range 15% to 50%. In rocks of very low velocity, which
contain substantial clay material, velocities may actually decrease with
saturation, due to chemical and volume changes to the clay minerals.
ET425.01
Generally for rocks with P waves less than about 2500m/s, the addition of
water greatly increases velocity.
B4
Porosity
Relationships have been developed between the porosity of a rock and its
seismic velocity, since porosity is an important factor in determining rock
velocity.
The general equation presented below by Wyllie (1958) known as the time
average relationship, relates the seismic wave velocity Vbulk to the porosity
and velocity in the pore fluid and rock matrix.
1/Vbulk = /Vf + (1-)/Vm
where Vf and Vm are the velocities of the pore fluid and rock matrix, and
is the porosity.
This is an empirical equation and makes no allowance for the structure of
the rock matrix and other factors that influence the velocity. In addition, this
equation does not take into account pores occupied by other constituents
other than water, e.g., clay. Numerous modifications to this equation has
been made by others such as accounting for the mechanical properties of
expandable clay minerals, and grain contact stiffness in granular media with
viscous fluids. These modifications and indeed most research in this area is
in the petroleum industry to predict reservoir characteristics for development
of oil and gas fields as well as exploration.
