FIELD AND LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS
Field Exploration
Subsurface exploration was performed July 16, 17, 18, and 22, 2013. The borings were located in the field by a representative of Red Rock Consulting by measuring distances from known site reference points as depicted on plans that were provided by CP&Y. The locations of the borings should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used to define them.
The subsurface exploration program consisted of drilling 4 borings under the full time supervision of an engineer. Boring B-1 was drilled at the northern abutment and was advanced to a depth of 35 feet. Boring B-2 was drilled to a depth of 46 feet near pier number 3. Boring B-3 was drilled near pier number 2 and was advanced to a depth of 45.5 feet. Boring B-4 was drilled at the southern abutment and was advanced to a depth of 38 feet.
The borings were advanced 30 feet into bedrock using wet rotary drilling methods from an all-terrain mounted CME-75 drill rig equipped with an automatic hammer, with the exception of boring B-4. Boring B-4 was terminated 3 feet into bedrock due to the extreme angle of the drill pipe and casing, which was a result of drilling through the thick layer of cobbles. An additional boring would have been required to advance the core barrel further.
As requested by the client, samples of the overburden materials were not obtained in the borings. Standard Penetration Tests, SPT, in general accordance with ASTM Specifications D-1586, were performed at the surface of bedrock only. After SPT refusal was attained, cores of the bedrock were taken using a double barrel rock coring bit in accordance with ASTM 02113.
The SPT test uses a standard, 2-inch 0.0., split-barrel sampling spoon that is driven into the bottom of the boring with a 140 pound automatic drive hammer that falls 30 inches. The blows per foot, N, is the number of hammer blows required to advance the sampling spoon the last 12 inches, or less, of an 18-inch sampling interval. The N value is used to estimate the in-situ relative density of granular soils, the consistency of cohesive soils, and the hardness of weathered bedrock.
After performing SPT tests and collecting rock cores, the holes were backfilled with grout and cuttings as required by the Oklahoma State Statutes for Geotechnical drilling.
Samples were collected and transported back to the lab for further classification and testing. The final boring logs were developed from the draft logs, observations and test

results of the samples returned to the laboratory. The stratigraphic contacts indicated are only for the specific dates and locations reported, and therefore, are not necessarily representative of other locations and times. The boring logs, presenting conditions encountered at each location explored, are included in Appendix A.
Laboratory Testing
As requested by the client, no laboratory testing of the overburden material was performed. Unconfined compression testing (ASTM 05873 - without stress-strain measurements) was performed on select rock core samples.
The results of the unconfined compression tests conducted are shown on the boring logs in Appendix A and are summarized in Appendix B.

SITE DESCRIPTION
Surface Conditions
At the time of this investigation, a four span bridge was located along the current alignment of US 259. The bridge was surrounded by small to large sized trees and brush. East of the bridge was the Mountain Fork River and to the west of the bridge were wooded mountains. Running underneath the bridge parallel to the Boktuklo Creek was a county road that was located between piers 2 and 3. Boktuklo Creek was located between piers 1 and 2 and was approximately 100 feet wide and appeared to be deep.
The boring locations of borings B-1 and B-4 were covered with short grass and weeds. The boring locations of borings B-2 and B-3 were covered with wood chips and a dirt road, respectively. The boring locations were relatively dry and level at the time of drilling and the ATV drill rig did not experience difficulty moving around the site.
The surface elevations were determined using differential leveling procedures. The center of the top of the northwest abutment wing wall was used as the benchmark. According to CP&Y, the wing wall had an elevation of 642.8 feet. Based on this benchmark, the elevations of the borings ranged between 614.6 feet and 639.9 feet. All station numbers and offsets are approximate and were estimated from the bridge plans provided by CP&Y. The approximate elevation at each boring location is shown on the boring location diagram and on the boring logs in Appendix A.
Site Geology
Division Two of the "Engineering Classification of Geological Materials", published by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) indicates the project site is underlain by the Jackfork unit (Pj).
This unit consists of alternating hard, buff to gray sandstones and dark gray shales with minor amounts of black siliceous shales which include some thin chert beds. Sandstone is the prevailing rock type.
The Jackfork unit is 5,600 to 6,000 feet thick. The unit appears to thin northwestward toward the frontal Ouachitas because in the vicinity of Wesley, Atoka County, the unit is less than 1, 700 feet thick.
The unit outcrops in Atoka, Choctaw, Latimer, LeFlore, McCurtain, and Pushmataha County of Division 2. This unit is not found north of the Ti Valley Fault.

The Jackfork is more resistant to erosion than the underlying Stanley shale, and it forms the steeper slopes and higher portions of the mountains of the Ouachitas. These mountains are rough, rocky, steep-sided, and covered with thick growths of pin and a mixture of deciduous trees. Much of the outcrop area of this unit receives more than 50 inches of rainfall per year. The soils in this area are very acidic (low pH values).
According to the Geologic Map of the "Hydrologic Atlas 8 of Oklahoma," Reconnaissance of the Water Resources of The Tulsa Quadrangle, Northeastern Oklahoma," by Robert B. Morton, U.S. Geological Survey, 1980, indicates that the project site is located on a Alluvium deposit underlain by the Jackfork Group (Pkf) (Pennsylvanian, Morrowan). The deposit and geologic formation are described therein as follows:
Alluvium consists of gravel, sand, silt, and clay, including low terraces about 30 feet abouve channels; thickness, about 50 feet along Little River and 11 O feet along Red River.
The Jackfork Group consistis of sandstone, tan to gray, fine- to coarse-grained, quartzose, with some mica, poorly to well-indurated, quartzitic, has some gray shale and several maroon shales; black, white-speckled Chickasaw Creek Chert is at base; thickness, 1,500 to 6,000 feet or more.
It should be noted that a fault is present within a mile of the proposed bridge. If a ) significant seismic event were to take place in the area. the structure may be damaged if not designed for dynamic loads. Therefore, this should be taken into account when designing the proposed bridge and related structures.
Subsurface Conditions
Information collected during this investigation indicates that the overburden materials consist of various combinations of silt, sand and lean clay that extended from the surface to the top of bedrock, which ranged between 4 and 35 feet in the borings.
The overburden materials were underlain by moderately strong to very strong chert bedrock. The unconfined compressive strength of the chert cores tested in the lab ranged between 5, 130 to 40,040 psi. The rock samples collected from boring B-4 were highly fractured I jointed and were less than 3 inches in length. Therefore, the hardness of rock in B-4 was not tested. The rock depths, hardness and jointing are summarized in Table 1.

Groundwater Conditions
Groundwater conditions were monitored in the borings during drilling and after a delay following drilling operations. The ground water levels are outlined in Table 2 below. It should be noted that groundwater measurements may not be precise due to the nature of wet rotary drilling. Cave in depth can be indicatory of the actual groundwater level.

To obtain more accurate groundwater level information, long-term observations in a well or piezometer that is sealed from the influence of surface water would be needed. Fluctuations in groundwater levels can occur due to seasonal variations in the amount of rainfall, runoff, altered drainage paths, and other factors not evident at the time borings were advanced. Consequently, the contractor should be aware of this possibility while constructing this project.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Driven pile foundations can be used to support the bridge abutments and drilled piers can be used to support the interior bents. Recommendations based on AASHTO's LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, 5th Edition, 2010 are presented in the sections below.
H-Piles
The abutments for the proposed triple span bridge can be supported by driven end bearing piles driven to practical refusal in the chert bedrock. Steel H-piles should be used due to their capability to withstand high driving stresses while penetrating the bedrock. According to AASHTO's LRFD Bridge Design Specifications, the nominal resistance of piles driven to point bearing on hard rock where pile penetration into the rock formation is minimal is controlled by the structural limit state of the pile. Pile capacity will depend on the size of the pile and the grade of the steel.
Piles should be driven until enough driving resistance is developed for the design load bearing capacity. The design load bearing capacity should be determined using an appropriate pile driving formula approved by ODOT. Piles should not be driven after practical refusal has been attained. All piles should be installed as per Section 514.04 of ODOT's Standard Specifications for Highway Construction.
The piles can be estimated to be driven to an approximate elevation of 635 and 602 feet near borings B-1 and B-4, respectively, or until practical refusal is achieved. These values are provided in Table 3. It should be noted that actual penetrations may vary from the values presented in Table 3 depending on variations in the site conditions, hammer types and hammer operating efficiency.

The interior bents for the proposed bridge can be supported by drilled shafts bearing in the chert bedrock. The following design information is based on the exploratory borings and AASHTO's LRFD Bridge Design Specifications. Bedrock depths are summarized in Table 1 of the Subsurface Conditions section of this report.
Drilled shafts socketed a depth of 1 pier diameter or greater can be designed with an end bearing of 34,815 psi. This end bearing was calculated as per section 10.8.3.5.4c of the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications and includes a resistance factor of 0.55. This end bearing is applicable to tightly jointed rock, which is what was predominantly encountered during the field investigation. If conditions are found to be different during construction, please contact Red Rock Consulting for revised end bearing recommendations.
It is assumed that concrete with a minimum 28-day compressive strength of 4,000 psi will be used to construct the piers. Based on this concrete strength, the chert bedrock is of greater strength than the concrete. Therefore, the concrete strength will control the available side resistance. The to..E. 2 feet of the rock should be neglected when calculating side resistance.
A heavy-duty pier drilling rig equipped with a rock auger and a core barrel will be required to penetrate the chert to the desired socket depth.
Casing may be needed to counteract difficulties with sloughing of the cohesionless overburden and fractured chert bedrock. Once the casing is in place, the remaining soils can be removed and the excess water pumped out. Casing is most effective when placed as soon as groundwater, loose soil or wet soil is encountered. Slurry displacement or a combination of casing and slurry can also be used to stabilize drilled shaft walls.
The pier bottoms and sockets should be checked for continuity and to determine that the material is acceptable for support of structural loads and consistent with the material identified in the borings. Loose material should be removed from the pier bottom and the socket should be clean.
Concrete should be pumped inside the casing or drilled shaft excavations immediately following drilling operations and inspection and placed from the bottom of the drilled shaft. During simultaneous concrete placing and casing removal operations, sufficient concrete head should be maintained inside the casing to offset the hydrostatic head of the groundwater outside the casing and to prevent the intrusion of soil and groundwater and/or slurry into the pier concrete. Concrete having a slump of at least 5 inches should be used. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

The environmental effect of construction projects is a growing concern in our industry. Some points for consideration of the environment regarding site construction and construction materials are summarized in the following paragraphs. These points should be incorporated into the design and construction of this project for a more environmentally friendly result. The following is only a summary. For a more in-depth discussion on sustainable design and construction, please contact Red Rock Consulting.
Site Construction
SEDIMENTATION AND EROSION CONTROL
Reduce pollution from construction activities by controlling soil erosion, waterway sedimentation, and airborne dust generation. This can be accomplished most efficiently by using seeding or mulching and silt fence.
• Seeding or Mulching - If the excavated site is left open for an extended amount of time, soil erosion should be retarded by using seeding or mulching to cover and hold the soils.
• Silt Fence - Prevent sedimentation of receiving streams by constructing silt fence (posts with a filter fabric media) around the project site. The silt fence is used to remove sediment from storm water that may runoff the construction site.
Construction Materials
LOCAL MA TE RIALS
Increase the demand for building materials and products that are extracted and manufactured within the region, thereby supporting the use of indigenous resources and reducing the environmental impacts resulting from transportation of materials. Examples of local materials that could be considered in the construction of this project include water, recycled steel, concrete and/or aggregate and sand.
RECYCLED MATERIALS
Reuse building materials and products in order to reduce demand for virgin materials and to reduce waste, thereby reducing impacts associated with the extraction and processing of virgin resources. Examples of recycled materials that could be considered in the construction of this project include recycled steel piles, concrete and aggregate.

CLOSURE
The data presented in this report are based on the negotiated scope for this project and site conditions as they existed at the time of the field exploration. It is assumed the conditions encountered in the exploratory borings are representative subsurface conditions within the study area.
This report was prepared for the exclusive use of CP& Y, ODOT and their agents and consultants. It should be made available to prospective contractors for information and factual data only and not as a warranty of subsurface conditions similar to those interpreted from the boring logs or discussions presented herein.
