1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The Pass Creek crossing of Brown Creek Road is located approximately 20 km north of
Grand Forks, BC. The crossing previously comprised a corrugated steel culvert. The culvert was
washed away during a heavy precipitation event and was replaced with a temporary single lane
bridge. Two options were considered for permanent replacement by the MoTI; a box culvert option
and a bridge option, supported by either shallow or deep foundations. A bridge supported by deep
foundations has been adopted as the preferred solution.
The British Columbia Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTI) has retained Klohn Crippen
Berger (KCB) to provide geotechnical consulting services for the project under MoTI’s 860CS1395 ‘As
and When’ Geotechnical Engineering Services Agreement. Stantec has been retained to provide
Structural consulting services.
In 2018, KCB conducted a geotechnical exploration program (KCB, 2019). Stantec has conducted the
design for a bridge spanning Pass Creek. The proposed bridge is nominally 8.5 m wide and the
abutments will be supported on driven steel pipe piles (a group of four at each abutment). Select 90%
design drawings and assumptions provided by Stantec are included in Appendix I.
The MoTI has requested that KCB provide the following geotechnical input:
Pile p-y curves for forces acting laterally (90-degrees to the road alignment);
A force-deformation relationship for the bridge abutment diaphragms, for forces acting
longitudinally on the diaphragms (parallel to the road alignment);
A review of assumed pile parameters, recommendations on suitability of assumed pile type,
and assessment of required driving depth of the piles;
Pavement recommendations; and
A review of geotechnical assumptions and provision of general foundation comments.
To assist in the geotechnical assessment of the piles, Stantec provided factored loading conditions for
the piles as shown in Table1 and Appendix I (provided by email on July 16, 2019):

2 SUBSURFACE GROUND CONDITIONS
The soil descriptions provided in this report are based on commonly accepted methods of
classification (BC MoTI modified Unified Soil Classification System from ASTM D2487) and
identification employed in geotechnical practice. Classification and identification of soil involves
judgement and KCB does not guarantee descriptions as exact but infers accuracy to the extent that is
common in current geotechnical practice. The locations of stratigraphic boundaries indicated in the
summary logs are inferred from non-continuous SPT sampling and the location of these boundaries
may not be exact given the inherent soil sample disturbance and instances of incomplete sample
recovery by the SPT method. These boundaries may also represent transitions from one soil type to
another and should not necessarily be regarded as the location of a precise or planar contact
between different geological materials. Furthermore, subsurface conditions may vary beyond the drill
hole location, and the depth of a particular stratum or material type is inferred only at the location of
observation.
Detailed soil logs are presented in KCB’s Geotechnical Exploration Program Report (KCB, 2019), along
with a description of methodologies, testing results, and site observations.
2.1 Soil
The soil stratigraphy was interpreted based on field logging of SPT split spoon (S) samples collected,
cuttings returned from the drilling process, drill action and supplemented by laboratory index testing
of select SPT soil samples.
Within the 2 drill holes advanced, two native soil strata (described below in descending order) were
encountered and can generally be summarized as follows:
Cobbly GRAVEL and SAND (GM1) with some silt and inferred boulders – fine to coarse
sub-rounded gravel, medium to coarse sand. Cobbles were present in core samples recovered,
and boulders were noted along the creek banks. The maximum particle size recovered during
the exploration program was 200 mm in length (a section of a cobble or boulder that was
cored through by the diamond bit). SPT N values within this soil unit might have been elevated
by the presence of gravel, cobbles and boulders. This stratum extended from ground surface
(at approximately El. 568 m) to approximately El. 562 m.
SAND and Silt (SM3) – fine to coarse-grained sand, some fine sub-rounded gravel. This stratum
had a brown colour, and compact relative density based on SPT N values ranging from 14 to
22 blows/305 mm. Seams of silty sand and mixtures of silt and sand were noted in this
stratum. The top elevation of this stratum was at approximately El. 562 m and both drill holes
were terminated within this stratum at El. 540.1 m and El. 551.1 m. As such, the maximum
depth of this unit is unknown.
2.2 Groundwater
Due to the presence of the coarse granular native soils observed along and surrounding the creek
channel, the groundwater level is expected to be generally consistent with the creek water level;
fluctuating with seasonal variations in precipitation and snow melt events.

3 SITE CLASSIFICATION AND LIQUEFACTION TRIGGERING ASSESSMENT
Based on the results of the field exploration program, the site can be classified as Site Class D,
assuming the soils are not subject to liquefaction triggering during the design seismic event.
KCB understands that the bridge is classified as an “Other” bridge in accordance with S6-14, and the
performance level will be “Probable replacement” under 2% in 50-year seismic probability of
exceedance (2,475 year return period).
A seismic hazard calculation and de-aggregation of the hazard for the site was obtained from the
Natural Resources Canada website, and the seismic hazard is summarized in Table 2 for Site Class C.
Detailed results from the de-aggregation are presented in Appendix IV.

10.0 0.0037 0.0052 0.0081
PGA 0.022 0.036 0.061
A soil liquefaction assessment was carried out for the 2,475-year earthquake return period using SPT
based liquefaction triggering procedures (Boulanger & Idriss, 2014). A PGA value of 0.14 g (consistent
with amplification reported by Idriss, 1991) and an earthquake moment magnitude of 7.0 were
conservatively selected for the analyses. The calculated Factor of Safety (FoS) was found to be >1.1,
therefore the granular soils at the site are not liquefiable under a 2,475-year return period
earthquake.
As the soils are non-liquefiable under the design event, the site may be classified as Site Class D, and
modification factors from S6-14 may be used to develop the design spectral acceleration values.
Based on the BC supplement to CHBDC S6-14, the seismic performance category is considered “1”.
This assumes that the natural period of the bridge is less than 0.5 s. If the natural period is greater
than 0.5 s, the Seismic Performance Category would be “2”.

4 PILE DESIGN
4.1 Axial Pile Capacity
KCB conducted an axial resistance assessment of the proposed piles using the effective stress method
(CGS, 2006). Assumed soil properties are shown in Table 3.
Table 3 Assumed Soil Parameters for Axial Pile Capacity Assessment
Parameter Units Upper Cobbly Soils Lower Compact
Sand and Silt
Soil Unit Depth Range - Surface to 6 m Depth2 Below 6 m Depth
Buoyant Unit Weight1 kN/m3 9.2 9.2
Shaft Resistance
Coefficient, β - 0.33 0.5
Notes: 1 – KCB has assumed groundwater is equal to the top of the pile (flood conditions)
2 – The upper gravelly sands were encountered within the upper 6 m during drilling. However, the
abutments will be founded 1.5 m to 2.0 m below existing grade. 6 m has been assumed for the sake of
conservatism, to allow for some pre-drilling beyond the base of the upper coarse-grained soils.
3 – This lower value is reflective of the assumption that the upper 6 m may be pre-drilled.
Resistances from the upper 2 m of the pile were neglected to account for the effects of frost, scour
and cyclic loading. The piles are assumed to be driven from El. 566 m (CGVD28). The 100-year flood
event water level was conservatively assumed, which is above the top of the piles (El 567.05 m,
CGVD28).
Based on a 610-mm diameter steel pipe pile driven open-ended and a geotechnical resistance factor
of 0.4, KCB has calculated that a single pile advanced to a depth of 24 m (tip elevation of 542 m)
would provide a factored resistance of 970 kN (consistent with the ULS1, and the maximum axial
load). This depth assumes that the piles are driven open-ended with an impact hammer from a depth
of 6 m. Actual geotechnical axial resistance of the driven piles should be confirmed during
construction using a pile driving analyzer, or the pile penetration resistance at termination should be
assessed by wave equation analysis. Select piles should be re-struck several days after completion of
initial driving to assess pile set-up and relaxation.
4.2 Lateral Pile Analysis and Force-Displacement Relationships
The computer program LPILE (by Ensoft) was used to assess the lateral pile response due to a lateral
force and bending moment applied at the pile head. The program computes pile head deflection,
bending moment along the pile depth, and shear force over the length of the pile. Force-
displacement curves (p-y) are also calculated using the software program, based on input soil
conditions. Assumed soil parameters for the LPILE analysis are shown in Table 4.

Soil Model Sand (Reese) Sand (Reese)
Friction Angle Degrees 34 34
Notes: 1 – KCB has assumed groundwater is equal to the top of the pile (high water conditions)
2 – While the upper gravelly sands were encountered within the upper 6 m during drilling, the
abutments will be founded 1.5 m to 2.0 m below existing grade.
The LPile analysis was conducted using the shear forces and bending moments provided by Stantec.
Resultant shear forces and bending moments were used. Based on the provided forces and moments
and based on the assumption that these forces and moments are applied at nominally El. 566 m
(CGVD28), KCB estimates the maximum pile tip elevation required to achieve fixity is El. 550 m
(CGVD28).
LPile was also used to develop force-displacement curves. The force-displacement curves were
modified for group effects using the methods outlined by Reece and Van Impe (2011). The resulting
force displacement relationships are presented in Appendix III. The plots show force per linear meter
of pile vs deflection, for one 610 mm diameter driven steel pipe pile. Intermediate values can be
obtained by linear interpolation. Relationships are appropriate for forces applied laterally (90o from
the centreline of the road) and assume that all 4 piles behave as a group (force values are per pile).
Moments were applied to the pile heads, preventing the piles from behaving in a ‘free’ manner. No
geotechnical resistance factor has been applied to these curves. A geotechnical resistance factor of
0.8 would be appropriate to apply during design when assessing lateral deformations (based on
S6-14). Resistances from the upper 2 m of soil should be neglected to account for the effects of frost,
scour and cyclic loading.
4.3 Pile Drivability
KCB understands that a 12.7 mm pipe pile thickness has been adopted. While this thickness is
suitable for the anticipated axial loads, a thicker section would help resist damage to the piles while
driving through the upper coarse materials and would allow for the use of a wider range of pile
driving hammers without causing damage to the piles.
Based on a 12.7 mm pipe pile thickness, and an assumed termination depth of 24 m, a diesel or
hydraulic impact hammer with a rated energy of approximately 100 kNm (100 kJ, nominally 75,000 ft-
lbs) would be appropriate. Drop hammers may require somewhat greater energy due to the lower
hammer efficiency.

5 ABUTMENT SPRINGS FOR SEISMIC SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION
A force-dependent soil-wall spring relationship was developed from the force vs displacement curves
proposed by Shamsabadi et. al. (2007, 2016). The maximum passive earth force was obtained using
the Mononobe-Okabe model for passive resistance (Seed and Whitman, 1970). Interface friction
between the wall and the soil backfill was ignored. Model parameters are summarized in Table 5 and
Table 6.

A PGA of 0.14 g was conservatively selected. The PGA was reduced by 50% in accordance with CSA
S6-14 to obtain the horizontal acceleration used to calculate the passive earth forces (Kheff).
The equivalent-linear stiffness (Kw, in kN/mm) can be selected based on the plots presented in
Appendix IV, and summarized as follows:
Kw = 390.4 - 0.225F
Where F is total Force in kN
The equivalent-linear stiffness will require using an iterative approach to satisfy both force and
displacement. These plots are for the entire abutment, based on a width of 8.46 m, and have been
adjusted for a 10-degree abutment skew in accordance with Rollins and Jessee (2013). A geotechnical
resistance factor has not been applied to the resulting relationship.

6 PAVEMENT DESIGN
MoTI has indicated that Brown Creek Road is a ‘Medium Volume’ road. Based on the guidance
provided in MoTI’s TC T-01/15, and based on discussion with the MoTI, the following pavement
structure is appropriate:
75 mm of Asphalt Pavement (AP); over
300 mm of WGB; and
150 mm of SGSB
This pavement design assumes that the sub-grade comprises coarse-grained soils that are
free--draining and not highly susceptible to frost. If during construction, the subgrade is found to
comprise fine-grained soils, an extra 150 mm of SGSB should be incorporated into the design (i.e., use
300 mm of SGSB total, instead of 150 mm).

7 RECOMMENDATIONS
7.1 Pile Recommendations
Based on soil conditions and anticipated foundation loads, driven steel pipe piles are considered
suitable for foundations. The analyses presented herein are based on 610 mm diameter steel pipe
piles driven open ended. Assuming ASTM A252 Grade 3 steel is used, KCB recommends a pile wall
thicknesses of 15.9 mm or thicker, as this pipe wall thickness will allow for the use of a greater variety
of piling hammers without damaging the piles.
Coarse granular soils were encounter within the uppermost 6 m (cobbles up to 200 mm in diameter
were observed during drilling, with larger diameter boulders inferred, to approximately El. 562 m
CGVD28) during KCB’s exploration program (KCB, 2019). These soils may result in difficult driving
conditions. Piles should be fitted with an appropriate driving shoe to minimize the potential for
damage during driving. Thicker section steel (15.9 mm or 19.0 mm) could also help prevent the piles
from being damaged while driving. Pre-drilling to the base of the coarse soil zone would be an
effective way to mitigate the risk associated with the coarser soils. Un-cased pre-drilling would likely
lead to collapsing conditions, however, and the method selected for pre-drilling should allow for a
means to mitigate this.
Large-diameter riprap was observed at the existing abutments. Removal of the riprap may be
necessary prior to pile driving.
In order to achieve fixity, piles must be driven to at least El. 550 m CGVD28 or deeper. If an
obstruction is encountered during driving, resulting in early refusal of the pile, the obstruction could
be drilled out and the pile re-driven assuming the pile is not damaged.
Final pile hammer selection, damage criteria, and termination criteria should be developed using
wave equation (WEAP) analyses, once a contractor is selected. Piles advanced using vibratory
hammers are likely to develop lower resistances and would likely need to be driven further than
suggested in Section 3.1. If MoTI elects to allow the use of vibratory hammers, the bottom 2 m of
each pile should be driven with an impact hammer to facilitate pile driving analysis (or WEAP
analyses) and confirm axial resistance.
The anticipated pile depth required to achieve the design resistance is based on assumed soil
characteristics. Actual termination depths will depend on the pile driving behaviour. KCB
recommends confirmation of axial capacities on-site during driving using a pile driving analyzer (PDA)
or using wave equation analyses (WEAP analyses). Axial capacity calculations, and estimated total
depths, have accounted for drill-out to a maximum depth of 6 m below pile cutoff. Should the pile be
advanced beyond this drill out depth using any means other than impact driving, the pile would likely
need to be advanced deeper to achieve the required resistance. The construction contract should
include allowances for advancing piles further to achieve the design axial resistance and should allow
for a re-strike to assess the pile set-up or relaxation effects.
Immediately following driving of each pile, the elevation of a punch mark on each pile should be
precisely referenced to a permanent stable benchmark. After adjacent piles are driven, the punch
mark should be re-checked for elevation. Any pile showing more than 5 mm (0.2”) of heave
movement must be re-driven to the specified final set.

P10014A06 January 2020
Piles should be inspected after completion of driving by lowering a light to the top of the soil plug.
Damaged or severely bent piles should be rejected and replaced by additional piles, which may
require redesign of the pile cap.
7.2 Groundwater and Dewatering
The depth of the excavation for the pile cap is anticipated to be below the groundwater level. In
order to have a relatively dry excavation base and to prevent base heave, temporary dewatering
measures to approximately 0.5 m below excavation grade should be adopted by the Contractor The
extensive presence of granular soils may result in high inflow rates. The Contractor should select and
design appropriate dewatering measures as temporary works.
A sheet pile cofferdam could be constructed to facilitate construction of the foundations at the
required grades. Sheet piling could also be installed along the inside face and ends of the pile cap to
protect against undermining per S6-14 Section 1.9.5.2.2 (b). However, sheet pile installation may be
difficult to advance if boulders are encountered. Excavation of shallower boulders may assist with
driving of sheet piles.
If open excavation with side slopes is allowed (assuming enough clearance is available), temporary
excavation slopes must comply with current WorkSafeBC Regulations as a minimum. If slope
instability is observed or groundwater seepage is noted on the slopes, flatter slopes than required by
WorkSafeBC would need to be designed by the Contractor to satisfy a minimum factor of safety of 1.3
for temporary excavation.
7.3 Cement Selection
KCB submitted three soil samples to Maxxam for chemistry testing in 2018, as part of the project
geotechnical exploration program (KCB, 2019). The soil was not tested in accordance with
CSA A23.2-3B per BC MoTI’s General Advisory on Environmental Testing Requirements for Concrete
Deterioration as this document was issued after completion of the exploration program. Maxxam
conducted the testing in accordance with environmental standard SM 22 4500-S042, which is similar
to CSA A23.2-3B. The soil sample location, soil types, and test results are summarized in Table 7.

Based on the testing results, all samples had water soluble sulphate (SO4) less than 0.1%. CSA
A23.1/A23.2 indicates that for soils with less than 0.1% water-soluble sulphate, the degree of
exposure is less than the threshold for ‘Moderate’ and would not require special cementing materials
be used. However, the samples were not tested in accordance with CSA A23.2-3B as requested in
MoTI’s advisory on Environmental Testing Requirements, additional testing may be required prior to
or during construction.
7.4 Subgrade Preparation and Construction
Subgrade preparation and construction should be conducted in accordance with the MoTI’s Standard
Specifications for Highway Construction, and should consist of the following procedures:
1. The existing surface should be excavated to strip and remove uncompacted fill, organic soils,
vegetation, rock fill, and other deleterious materials. Sufficient stripping should be conducted
to facilitate placement of the minimum thickness of the design pavement structure. Any
topsoil should be stockpiled for re-use on the final slopes.
2. The subgrade should be proof-rolled with a minimum 10 tonne vibratory roller and inspected
to identify soft or loose areas.
3. Any soft areas should be removed and replaced with a suitable subgrade fill. The depth and
extent of over excavation should be reviewed by a geotechnical engineer during construction.
Any questionable material encountered during grading should be brought to the attention of
the geotechnical engineer. Subgrade fill should be placed in a manner consistent with MoTI
Standard Specifications for Highway Construction, Section 201.37.
4. Loose areas of cohesionless soils (sand and gravel) can usually be improved with extra
compaction and if necessary, the addition of water. Inspection of loosened areas should be
performed by a geotechnical engineer.
5. Final grading of the subgrade and each subsequent road base layer should include a suitable
crown to direct drainage from the centre to the outer edges of the road.
7.5 Geotechnical Construction Field Review
Pavement subgrade soils should be inspected prior to placement of sub-base fill to confirm subgrade
conditions are consistent with the design recommendations provided herein. Geotechnical design
revisions may be required if differing subgrade conditions are observed.
Upon submission of the details of the contractors driving equipment, a geotechnical engineer should
conduct a WEAP analysis to assess the termination criteria and driveability for the piles. The
geotechnical engineer should be present on-site during driving to assess if the piles have achieved the
termination criteria by the recommended penetration depth, and if not, how much deeper they need
to be driven to satisfy the load resistance requirements.

ordinarily provided by members of the same profession for projects of a similar nature at the time
and place the services were rendered. KCB makes no warranty, express or implied.
Use of or reliance upon this instrument of service by the Client is subject to the following conditions:
1. The report is to be read in full, with sections or parts of the report relied upon in the context
of the whole report.
2. The observations, findings and conclusions in this report are based on observed factual data
and conditions that existed at the time of the work and should not be relied upon to precisely
represent conditions at any other time.
3. The report is based on information provided to KCB by the Client or by other parties on behalf
of the client (Client-supplied information). KCB has not verified the correctness or accuracy of
such information and makes no representations regarding its correctness or accuracy. KCB
shall not be responsible to the Client for the consequences of any error or omission contained
in Client-supplied information.
4. KCB should be consulted regarding the interpretation or application of the findings and
recommendations in the report.
The analyses, conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on data derived
from a limited number of test holes obtained from widely-spaced subsurface explorations. The test
hole data indicate subsurface conditions at the specific locations where samples were obtained or
where in-situ tests were conducted, and only at the time they were obtained and to the depths
penetrated. The samples and tests cannot be relied upon to accurately reflect the nature and extent
of variations in strata and material parameters that may exist between sampling or testing locations.
The recommendations contained in this report have been based in part on assumptions about strata
variations between test holes that will not become evident until construction or further investigation.
During construction, Klohn Crippen Berger (KCB) should be retained for field review to observe
encountered subsurface conditions. If variations or other latent conditions become evident during
construction, KCB will re-evaluate the recommendations in this report. KCB cannot assume
responsibility or liability for the adequacy of its recommendations without the appropriate level of
field review.
Although KCB has explored subsurface conditions as part of this program, KCB has not conducted
analytical laboratory testing of samples or evaluated the site for the potential presence of
contaminated soil or evaluated groundwater conditions.

Notes. Spectral (Sa(T), where T is the period in seconds) and peak ground acceleration (PGA) values aregiven in units of g (9.81 m/s2). Peak ground velocity is given in m/s. Values are for "firm ground" (NBCC2015 Site Class C, average shear wave velocity 450 m/s). NBCC2015 and CSAS6-14 values are specified inbold font. Three additional periods are provided - their use is discussed in the NBCC2015 Commentary.Only 2 significant figures are to be used. These values have been interpolated from a 10-km-spaced gridof points. Depending on the gradient of the nearby points, values at this location calculated directlyfrom the hazard program may vary. More than 95 percent of interpolated values are within 2 percentof the directly calculated values.
