15.3 Geotechnical and Soil Profile Conditions

15.3.1 Purpose of Geological Investigation, Outlines and Work Methodology

(1) Purpose of Geological Investigation

Geological investigation was implemented to confirm geology, geotechnical and soil properties, and

design condition of the selected bridge sites for the 2nd Screening of the bridges inside and outside of

Metro Manila. There were five (5) bridge sites inside Metro Manila and were Seven (7) bridge sites

outside of Metro Manila. The geological investigation was undertaken by a local consultant

(EASCON Mla. Const. Con., Inc.). The JICA Study Team supervised the local consultant’s work.

(2) Outlines and Contents of Geological Investigation

The geological investigation for each bridge site is basically comprised of boring with standard

penetration test, laboratory tests to know soil mechanical properties, and downhole shear wave test.

The geological investigation was carried out between August and October in 2012.

(3) Methodologies of Work

1) Boring

Non-core drilling work was executed at the locations specified by the JICA Study Team. The

depth of the drilling at each borehole was planned and terminated by the JICA Study Team. Soil

samples obtained by Standard Penetration Test (SPT) were reserved using sealed plastic bags.

The soil samples were observed by the geologist of the JICA Study Team and used for

laboratory soil tests.

2) Standard Penetration Test (SPT)

Standard Penetration Test (SPT) was performed for every one (1) meter basically. Ground water

levels at each borehole were measured every morning.

3) Laboratory Test

All the laboratory tests shall be executed in accordance with AASHTO, ASTM basically. The

laboratory tests for boring cores or samples contain the test items shown in Table 15.3.1-1 below.

Table 15.3.1-1 Laboratory Tests and Methodology Tests / Item Methodology 1 Soil classification AASHTO/ASTM 2 Specific gravity AASHTO T-85 3 Natural moisture content AASHTO T-265 4 Atterberg limits AASHTO T-89&90 5 Grain size analysis AASHTO T-88 6 Unconfined compression test of soils / rock test AASTHO T-24

15-14

4) Downhole Shear Wave Test (DSWT)

The downhole shear wave test (DSWT) shall confirm to ASTM 7400. The test requires drilling

of a single borehole. This borehole was taken from one of the geotechnical boreholes at each site

basically. The geotechnical boreholes were reamed to a larger diameter to accommodate PVC or

GI pipes and the ground tubes. The boreholes were then thoroughly cleaned with its cuttings

prior to the installation of the PVC pipe and grouting. The formulated ground mixture shall

approximate the density of the surrounding in-situ material after consolidation. A minimum of

two week waiting time was followed to fully cured the grout prior to actual testing.

During testing, seismic energy was generated on the ground surface using a shear beam firmly

fixed at a short distance from the top of the borehole. The travel times of the first-arrival seismic

waves (S waves) were measured at regular intervals using a single, clamped triaxial geophone

that is gradually moved down the borehole. The S-wave arrival times for each receiver location

are combined to produce travel-time versus depth curves for the completed borehole. These are

then used to produce total velocity profiles from which interval velocities and the various elastic

moduli can be calculated (in conjunction with density data from geophysical logging of the

borehole).

5) Quantity of Geotechnical Investigation

The following tables (Table 15.3.1-2 and Table 15.3.1-3) show the quantity of the geological

investigation in this study (as of October 29, 2012).

(3) Liquefaction Potential Assessment

This JICA study evaluates the liquefaction potential assessment for each of the selected bridge sites

for the 2nd screening by applying Youd et al. (2001; recommended by AASHTOs) and JRA’s method

mentioned below.

1) Empirical Method Recommended by AASHTO

FC. However, in this interim report, the data of soil properties had been tentatively obtained

from the laboratory test. Therefore liquefaction potential mentioned below shows a preliminary

potential assessment by assuming soil properties based on observation of the soil samples

obtained in boring. These assessment results have to be updated based on the final laboratory test

results.

15.4 River and Hydrological Conditions

15.4.1 Package B

The candidate bridges of Package-B are all located on Pasig-Marikina River in Metro Manila. Delpan

Bridge is located at about 0.7 km, Nagtahan Bridge is about 5.0 km, Lanbingan Bridge is about 10.0

km, and Guadalupe Bridge is about 14.4 km upstream along Pasig River from the river mouth.

Marikina Bridge is located at about 6.6 km upstream along Upper Marikina River from the Junction

of Mangahan Floodway.

(1) Outline of Pasig-Marikina River

The Pasig-Marikina River flows through the city of Manila to the Manila Bay. Its total catchment area

is estimated at around 621 km2, about 20% of which is situated in Metro Manila. At the junction of

Napindan Hydraulic Control Structure (NHCS), the river is known as the Marikina River in the upper

reaches and the Pasig River in the lower reaches. The San Juan River, one of the tributaries with a

catchment of 91 km2, joins the Pasig River at its meandering section in the central city area where is

7.1 km from the river mouth. The Mangahan Floodway has been constructed to divert floodwaters

from the Marikina River into the Laguna Lake.

Page 172: THE PROJECT FOR STUDY ON IMPROVEMENT OF BRIDGES … · 2017-01-05 · CHAPTER 2 ORGANIZATIONS CONCERNED FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF BRIDGES ... 10.5 Policy and Outline of Example for Practical

15-102

The Pasig River from the river mouth to the junction of NHCS in total 17.1 km has the average

riverbed gradient of 1/10,000, the width ranging from 60 m to 250 m and depth from 6.0 m to 12.0 m.

The Pasig River plays important role as a transportation route between river mouth, where the

moorings facilities are installed along the riversides especially from Delpan Bridge to Jones Bridge,

and densely built-up factories along the river toward the NHCS.

The Marikina River consists of two stretches, namely: Lower Marikina River from NHCS to

Mangahan Floodway in total 6.9 km and Upper Marikina River from Mangahan Floodway to

Montalban (Mangahan Floodway to Sto. Niño in total of 6.3 km). The Lower Marikina River has the

average river gradient of less than 1/5,000, the width ranging from 50 m to 110 m and the depth from

4.2 m to 9.5 m. The Upper Marikina River has the average gradient of 1/5,000, the width ranging

from 70 m to 200 m.

The Laguna Lake is situated in Region IV (Southern Tagalog) at 14°11.6’ to 14°32.2’ north

longitude and 120°2.7’ to 121°28.7’ latitude. The basin encompasses a total area of nearly 4,000

km2. The lake has a total surface area of about 900 km2, and average depth of 2.8 m. It has a total

volume of 3.2 billion m3 with a shoreline of 220 km.

(2) Climate of Pasig-Marikina River Basin

According to the Corona Climate Classification by PAGASA, the climate of Pasig-Marikina River

Basin is classified under Type Ⅰ. It is characterized by a dominant rainy season from May to October

and a dominant dry season for the rest of the months. The mean annual rainfall in Manila Port Area is

showed in Figure 15.4.1-1. The total rainfall from May to October accounts about 88 % of the annual

rainfall, which is brought mainly by the wet southwestern monsoon and the occasional typhoons.

Metro Manila has been suffering from flood damages almost every year in part to the insufficient flow

capacity of the Pasig-Marikina Rivers and drainage systems in Metro Manila. Especially, Typhoon

Ondoy hit Metro Manila on 26th of September in 2009 and dumped one month’s rainfall in less than

24 hours, causing Marikina River system including Mangahan Floodway to burst its banks rapidly.

Along with the flooding of other river systems, 80 % of National Capital Region (NCR) became

flooded. This is the worst storm on record that Metro Manila has experienced since 1967.

(3) Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project

The Pasig-Marikina River has experienced frequent channel overflow even after construction of

Mangahan Floodway in 1985, the channel improvement project has been conducted.

DPWH formulated the master plan of the Pasig-Marikina River System in the Study on Flood Control

and Drainage Project in Metro Manila (JICA Study, March 1990). In the master plan, the river

channel improvement project including the Marikina Control Gate Structure (MCGS) and Marikina

Dam against the project scale of 100-year return period was proposed. The estimated design flood

discharge was reviewed in the Detailed Engineering Design conducted in 2002 as shown in Figure

15.4.1-2. In the Detailed Engineering Design, the project scale is proposed to be a 30-year return

period for the urgent flood control plan. Major works consists of the improvement of Pasig River and

Lower Marikina and a part of Upper Marikina Rivers, and the construction of MCGS. The San Juan

River Improvement and the construction of Marikina Dam are excluded. The estimated design flood

discharge distribution against the project scale 30-year return period is shown in Figure 15.4.1-3. The

Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project has already been commenced based on the

design flood discharge distribution in Pasig River.

15.4.1-1. The Design Flood Discharge is estimated against the project scale 30-year return period

because of the urgent project. On the other hand, according to the estimated Design Flood

Discharge in master plan in 1990, the discharge against 100-year return period might be

controlled as almost same amount as it against 30-year return period by Marikina Dam proposed

to construct in the upstream of Upper Marikina River.

Design Flood Level in Pasig-Marikina River corresponding to the discharge is also estimated in

the Detailed Engineering Design. The water level in Pasig-Marikina River is well affected by the

tide level of Manila Bay and also Laguna Lake. The Design Flood Level was calculated with

considering of the backwater of the observed highest tide level in Manila Bay.

In the Detailed Engineering Design, the tide level of Manila Bay was referred to the data of

Primary Tidal Bench Mark BM4B in Intramuros Manila. However, the Bench Mark BM4B has

been disappeared in 2004. Then, topographic survey in this study has been conducted based on

the elevation of BM66 in Manila South Harbor. Therefore, the tide level of Manila Bay might be

referred to the bench mark BM66. The tidal information at Manila South Harbor tide Station is

obtained from NAMRIA as below;

Source: Letter from NAMRIA and TIDE AND CURRENT TABLES Philippines 2012

According to the result of the Detailed Engineering Design considering the updated tide level,

the Design Flood Level in each candidate bridges are shown in Table 15.4.1-3.

Table 15.4.1-3 Design Flood Discharge and Design Flood Level in Pasig-Marikina River

(from Napindan Channel) 2,900 9.697

However, the water level in Marikina Bridge has been recorded 11.20 m (above mean sea level)

in the Ondoy Typhoon in September 26th 2009 which occurred the heaviest damages in Metro

Manila. (It was recorded as 22.16 m above Mean Lower Low Water Level +10.47 m by Sto.

Niño Station Gauge which is set by PAGASA) But the recording by the Sto. Niño Station Gauge

was stopped after the elevation (22.16 m) because of a technical problem. According to the

residential people, the water level came up to really close to the bottom of the girder of Marikina

Bridge. The water level in Ondoy Typhoon is seemed to have been higher than the elevation

11.20 m which was recorded by PAGASA. Due to the presentation about the hydraulic analysis

of the Ondoy Typhoon and Marikina River Flood by UPCOE-ICE-NHRC, the peak flood

discharge of Marikina River in Sto. Niño Station in Ondoy Typhoon was 5,770 m3/s and rainfall

depth in 6 hours was 347.5 mm. It corresponds to a 100 ~ 150-year return period rainfall.

Figure 15.4.1-4 Water Level at Marikina Bridge in Ondoy Typhoon (September 26th 2009)

15-107

In this study, the design flood level might be referred to the Detailed Engineering Design. The

design flood level in Marikina Bridge is also referred to the Detailed Engineering Design even

the water level in Ondoy Typhoon was above the design flood level because the design flood

discharge in Marikina Bridge against 100-year return period would be controlled by Marikina

Dam which is proposed in Master Plan in 1990 in the future (refer to Figure 15.4.1-3).

2) Flow Velocity

The flow velocity at the bridges corresponding to the Design Flood Discharge is calculated by

the equation below;

Q=A・V

where, Q : Design Flood Discharge (m3/s) A : Cross Sectional Area (m2) V : Flow Velocity (m/s)

Table 15.4.1-4 Flow Velocity against the Design Flood Discharge in Pasig-Marikina River

Bridges in Package-B Design Flood Discharge (m3/s) Flow Velocity (m/s)

B-01 Delpan Bridge 1,200 1.41

B-06 Nagtahan Bridge 1,200 1.92

B-08 Lambingan Bridge 600 1.16

B-10 Guadalupe Bridge 600 1.27

B-16 Marikina Bridge 2,900 3.53

3) Navigation Clearance

The regulated vertical navigation clearance specified under Philippine Coast Guard (PCG)

Memorandum-Circular No.05-97, “Minimum Vertical Navigation Clearance for Road Bridges”

is 3.75 m (10 ft) from the highest water level that would allow the safety passage of watercrafts,

which should be applied on the Pasig River and lower Marikina River for transportation by barge.

The Detailed Engineering Design reports the highest water level in Pasig River means the

highest tidal water level on record and not the flood level because the water level of Pasig River

usually from river mouth to around Guadalupe Bridge is well affected by the tide level in Manila

Bay. The current direction of Pasig River is also changing by the tide level.

Page 178: THE PROJECT FOR STUDY ON IMPROVEMENT OF BRIDGES … · 2017-01-05 · CHAPTER 2 ORGANIZATIONS CONCERNED FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF BRIDGES ... 10.5 Policy and Outline of Example for Practical

15-108

However, PCG is proposing the new vertical clearance as below because the scale of the

vessels/ships has been becoming increasingly large;

Vertical Clearance (Proposed by PCG) = H.W.L + H.V +K

where, H.W.L : The Highest Water Level recorded within the AOR H.V : Height of Vessel K : Constant 3 meters allowance

However, the vertical clearance proposed by PCG would affect the vertical alignment of the

bridges along the Pasig River and also the approach road area if bridges meet the clearance in

reconstruction. The vertical clearance is realistically not acceptable to the bridges in Pasig River.

Therefore, the existing regulation of the vertical clearance might be applied in this study and

which is approved in the Technical Working Group with DPWH.

Thus, the minimum vertical navigation clearance for the Delpan Bridge, Nagtahan Bridge,

Lambingan Bridge and Guadalupe Bridge is below;

Vertical Clearance = H.W.L + 3.75 m

where, H.W.L : Observed Highest Tide in Manila Bay (= 1.48 m)

The elevation of the soffit for these 4 bridges must be higher than 5.23 m (above Mean Sea

Level).

The navigational span of the bridge should be provided in a way that it does not obstruct the safe

navigation of appropriate vessels or watercraft passing through the area.

As for Marikina Bridge, navigation is made by only small banker boat along Upper Marikina

River and there is no regulation about the navigation clearance in Upper Marikina River.

4) Freeboard and Vertical Clearance

As Detailed Engineering Design reporting in Table 15.4.1-1, according to the “DESIGN

Guidelines Criteria and Standards for Public Works and Highways” which is prepared by the

Bureau of Design (DPWH Design Guideline), the freeboard allowance for embankment at each

bridge are determined corresponding to the design discharge as below;

Page 179: THE PROJECT FOR STUDY ON IMPROVEMENT OF BRIDGES … · 2017-01-05 · CHAPTER 2 ORGANIZATIONS CONCERNED FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF BRIDGES ... 10.5 Policy and Outline of Example for Practical

5 5,000 to less than 10,000 1.50

6 More than 10,000 2.00

Source: DESIGN Guidelines Criteria and Standards for Public Works and Highways

Also vertical clearance (below the bridge) shall not be less than 1.50 m for stream carrying

debris and 1.00 m for others. According to DPWH, Pasig-Marikina River carries debris in flood

condition and the vertical clearance must have not less than 1.50 m.

Considering the freeboard and the vertical clearance, value to be added to design water level at

bridges along the Pasig-Marikina River might be 1.50 m.

5) Considerations

a) River Flow at Lambingan Bridge

According to the Station Commander

of Coast Guard Station PASIG (PSG),

the area of Lambingan Bridge is an

accident prone zone for the navigation

in the Pasig River because the bridge

is located on the sharp river bend.

PSG regulates the maximum speed for

navigation in the Pasig River as 12

knots, but as for the area from about

200 m before and after Lambingan

Bridge (both ways) the maximum

speed is regulated as 5 knots. The direction of the river flow from at Lambingan Bridge is

toward the northern pier and vessel/ships are prone to hit the pier because of the flow.

15-110

b) Vessel/Ships Navigation in Flood Condition

The vertical navigation clearance in the Pasig River regulated

by PCG is set from the observed highest tide in Manila Bay

and it is not considered of the flood condition. However,

according to the Station Commander of PSG, navigation in

flood condition is not restricted by the regulation and it is

restricted in typhoon based on the warning signal by

PAGASA. The all responsibility of the navigation in the flood

condition is on the captain’s decision. However, the water level is raised up to higher than the

observed highest tide level which is caused by the heavy rain and the water level of the

Laguna Lake, and the vertical navigation clearance might be decreased and vessel/ships are

likely to hit the bottom girder like Lambingan Bridge. There is a crack on the bottom cord

caused by the collision on the Lambingan Bridge even Lambingan bridge meets the vertical

navigation clearance.

6) Major Design Condition

The summary of the major design condition of the bridges of Package-B is shown in Table

15.4.1-6.

(1) Hydrological Survey and Results of Cagayan River

1) Outline of Cagayan River

Cagayan River travels about 520 km in the Cagayan Valley from South to north in the northern

part of the Luzon Island, which is the longest and largest river in Philippines with its catchment

area of 27,281 km2. The major tributaries are the Magat River (5,113 km2), Ilagan River (3,132

km2), Siffu-Mallig River (2,015 km2), and Chico River (4,551 km2).

The climate in the Cagayan River Basin consists of two tropical monsoons, i.e. the Southwest

Monsoon and the Northeast Monsoon. According to the Corona Climate Classification by

PAGASA, climate in the Cagayan River basin is under Type III. This climate type is by not very

pronounced seasons with relatively dry weather condition from November to April while the

remaining of the year is noted as wet weather. The Cagayan River Basin experiences heavy

rainfall during the rainy season that normally occurs from June to November. Figure 15.4.2-1

shows the mean annual rainfall in Tuguegarao city where Buntun Bridge is located. The annual

average rainfall in the basin is estimated to be 2,600 mm.

Major storms that have struck the Cagayan River Basin have resulted from typhoons and

monsoon in the area. The typhoons normally strike during July to December, with about 8 times

a year on the average.

2) Existing Study of Cagayan River

The Cagayan River Basin has been experienced floods occur during typhoons usually strikes

from July to December which bring abundant rainfall to the basin and by heavy rainfall during

the rainy season that normally occurs from June to November. JICA conducted the Master Plan

Study on the Cagayan River Basin Water Resources Development from 1985 to 1987. The flood

control plan was formulated in the Master Plan including flood control dams, diking systems,

narrow improvement and bank protection. In the Feasibility Study conducted by 2002, the

Master Plan was reviewed and some priority flood control projects in the lower Cagayan River

were studied. The priority projects are including Tuguegarao right dike system (21.3 km) around

Buntun Bridge, Alcala-Buntun left dike system (33.5 km) along downstream of Buntun Bridge,

Enrile left dike system (12.2 km) along upper stream of Buntun Bridge and Tuguegarao cut-off

channels in upper stream of Buntun Bridge. According to the Feasibility Study, these projects are

proposed to be implemented in Phase 3 (2007-2015) and Phase 4 (2011-2020). However, it has

not been implemented and the Preparatory Study for Sector Loan on Disaster Risk Management

was conducted by JICA in 2010. In this study, the feasibility study was conducted for the

selected three core areas which really need urgent implementation of a flood control project in

Tuguegarao area.

3) Major Design Condition of Buntun Bridge

a) Design Flood Discharge and Design Flood Level

In this survey, because of no detail study, the design discharge of Cagayan River at Buntun

Bridge is estimated by Specific Discharge Method referring “MANUAL ON FLOOD

CONTROL PLANNING” established by Project for the Enhancement of Capabilities in Flood

Control and Sabo Engineering of the DPWH. Design high water level for the bridge must be

compared to the observed highest water level by interview with the high water level calculated

by the design flood discharge which is estimated by the Specific Discharge Method.

According to the DPWH Design Guideline, design storm frequency considered desirable for

use in the Philippines is 50 years. However this project scale must be also considered to be a

100-year return period because all the candidate bridges are very essential.

Design Flood Discharge is estimated at follows;

Q=q・A

q=c・A (A-0.048-1)

where, Q : Design Flood Discharge (m3/s) q : Specific Discharge (m3/s/km2) c : Constant for Regional Specific Discharge Curve (Table 16.5.2.1-1) A : Catchment Area (km2)

Source: MANUAL ON FLOOD CONTROL PLANNING March 2003

The catchment area of Cagayan River to the point of Buntun Bridge is 19,247 km2, which is

obtained using a topographic map prepared by NAMRIA. The constant for Regional Specific

Discharge Curve for Luzon is 23.83 for 50-year return period and 25.37 for 100-year return

period. Then, Design Flood Discharge for Cagayan River at Buntun Bridge is calculated using

the formula above, 11,103 m3/s for 50-year return period and 11,821 m3/s for 100-year return

period.

Design Flood Level is estimated with the Manning’s equation;

Q=A・V

V=1/n・R2/3・S1/2

where, Q : Design Flood Discharge (m3/s) A : Cross Sectional Area (m2) V : Flow Velocity (m/s) n : Manning’s Roughness Coefficient R : Hydraulic Radius (m) S : River Bed Slope

Manning’s roughness coefficient is obtained from DPWH Design Guideline considering the

existing river condition. According to the Preparatory Study for Sector Loan on Disaster Risk

Management (January 2010), average riverbed slope is 1/9,000 between Alcala to Tuguegarao

River. The cross section at the Buntun Bridge is determined by the topographic survey

conducted in this study. The Design Flood Level corresponding to the Design Flood

Discharge 11,103 m3/s and 11,821 m3/s will be calculated after the topographic survey is done.

b) Site Interview

The water level of Cagayan River has been

observed at Buntun Bridge by PAGASA since

1982. The water level station gauge is on the pier.

According to PAGASA, the observed highest

water level of Cagayan River at Buntun Bridge is

12.70 m at the cold front in November 5th 2010.

The water level came up to the bottom of the

coping of the pier. In relatively dry season, the

water level is very low. Therefore, there is no

navigational ship along the river and only small

boat is passing under the bridge.

c) Major Design Condition

(I) Design High Water Level

The design high water level is determined by comparing the observed highest water level

12.70 m and the design flood level corresponding to the design flood discharge. The design

flood level will be calculated after topographic survey at Buntun Bridge is finished.

(II) Flow Velocity

The flow velocity at the design water level will be calculated after the water level is

determined.

(III) Vertical Clearance and Freeboard

According to DPWH Design Guideline, vertical clearance (below the bridge) shall not be

less than 1.50 m for stream carrying debris and 1.00 m for others. And also, the freeboard

allowance for embankment is determined corresponding to the Design Flood Discharge as

Table 15.4.1-4.

Thus, value to be added to design water level at Buntun Bridge might be 2.00 m whether it

carries debris or no, because Design Flood Discharge is more than 10,000 m3/s at Buntun

Bridge.

Note: The section of Buntun Bridge and Riverbed is assumed

(2) Hydrological Survey and Results of Wawa River

1) Outline of Wawa River

Wawa River is one of the tributaries of the Agusan River, located in the northeastern part of

Mindanao. The Agusan River has the third largest basin of the Philippines with a river length of

350 km and the catchment area 10,921 km2. Wawa River with a river length of 88.2 km with the

catchment area of 764.14 km2 flows into the Agusan River at middle Agusan River Basin in

Agusan del Sur Province.

The Climate in Wawa River Basin is Tropical Wet and it is rainy throughout the year. Based on

the Coronas Climate Classification, most of the Wawa River Basin is classified to Type Ⅱ

which is characterized by the absence of a dry season and a very pronounce maximum rainfall

occurring from November to January, even the most part of the Agusan River Basin is classified

to Type Ⅳ. The mean annual rainfall at Surigao and Butuan City, Agusan del Norte where has

the close climate as Wawa River Basin is showed in Figure 15.4.2-3.

2) Existing Study of Wawa River

The master plan project for the Agusan River Basin to develop the integrated river basin

management was conducted by Asian Development Bank (ADB) by 2008. On the other hand,

regarding to Wawa River, Wawa River Irrigation System (WRIS) was constructed at

approximately 60 m downstream of Wawa Bridge by National Irrigation Administration (NIA)

in 2005. According to the drawings of the WRIS which is obtained from NIA sub office

controlling the irrigation system, the design flood discharge is 1,280 m3/s for 50-year return

period and 1,770 m3/s for 100-year return period.

3) Major Design Condition of Wawa Bridge

a) Design Flood Discharge and Design Flood Level

In this survey, because of no detail study, the design discharge of Wawa River at Wawa

Bridge is estimated by Specific Discharge Method as same as Cagayan River in (1) 3) a).

The catchment area of Wawa River to the point of Wawa Bridge is 407 km2, which is

obtained using a topographic map prepared by NAMRIA. The constant for Regional Specific

Discharge Curve for Mindanao is 12.80 for 50-year return period and 14.00 for 100-year

return period (Table 15.4.2-1). Then, Design Flood Discharge for Wawa River at Wawa

Bridge is estimated at 1,156 m3/s for 50-year return period and 1,264 m3/s for 100-year return

period.

Design Flood Level is calculated by the Manning’s equation. Manning’s roughness coefficient

is obtained from DPWH Design Guideline considering the existing river condition. The

average riverbed slope is difficult to be determined by the results of this topographic survey

because of the riverbed topography around Wawa Bridge is not showing some constant slope.

But according to the drawings of WRIS, the riverbed slope is approximately 1/400. The cross

section at the Wawa Bridge is determined by the topographic survey conducted in this study.

As a result of the calculation, the Design Flood Level corresponding to the Design Flood

Discharge 1,156 m3/s and 1,264 m3/s is respectively 40.48 m and 40.64 m. As a reference, the

Design Flood Levels corresponding to the Design Flood Discharge obtained from the

drawings of WRIS, calculated at the cross section by this topographic survey are also showed

in below.

b) Site Interview

According to the controller of the WRIS, observed

highest water level at Wawa Bridge is 41.65 m

(above mean sea level) at the typhoon in February

2011. And also in 1959, there was a flood and the

water level came up to about 40.0 m, then the old

Wawa Bridge which was at the 50 m downstream

was washed out by the flood. Wawa River carries

lots of debris in flood condition.

c) Major Design Condition

(I) Design High Water Level

The Flood Levels which are calculated above are lower than the observed highest water

level 41.65 m. In this survey, higher value 41.65 m might be adopted as the Design Flood

Level. The Design Flood Discharge with the design water level 41.65 m is calculated as

2,159 m3/s.

(II) Flow Velocity

The flow velocity with the design flood discharge Q=2,159 m3/s at Wawa Bridge is

calculated as 3.53 m/s.

(III) Vertical Clearance and Freeboard

According to the DPWH Design Guideline, freeboard allowance for embankment

corresponding to the design flood discharge is 1.20 m because of the discharge calculated

against the Design High Water is between 2,000 m3/s and 5,000 m3/s, and the vertical

clearance shall not be less than 1.5 m because Wawa River carries debris in flood condition.

Therefore, the minimum vertical clearance between soffit of bridge and the design high

water level might be 1.5 m.

(3) Hydrological Survey and Results of Palanit River and Bangon River

1) Outline of Palanit River and Bangon River

Both Palanit River and Bangon River (named Mawo River in the map prepared by NAMRIA)

are located in the northern west part of Samar Island of Visayas. These rivers are not principal

rivers and have not much information. The length and catchment area of the rivers are obtained

from the map prepared by NAMRIA. The length of Palanit River is approximately 7.4 km with

the catchment area 15.9 km2 and the length of Bangon River is approximately 30.9 km with the

catchment area 263.9 km2. Both are facing to Samar Sea.

According to the Corona Climate Classification by PAGASA, climate of the both river’s basin is

under Type Ⅳ. In the climate, rainfall is more or less evenly distributed throughout the year, and

has no dry season. The mean annual rainfall in Catbalogan where is on the same coastline with

the both river’s basin is showed in Figure 15.4.2-5.

2) Major Design Condition of Palanit Bridge and Mawo Bridge

a) Design Flood Discharge and Design Flood Level

In this survey, because of no detail study, the design discharge of Palanit River at Palanit

Bridge and Bangon River at Mawo Bridge is estimated by Specific Discharge Method as same

as Cagayan River in 16.5.2.1 (3) 1), and Wawa River in 16.5.2.2 (3) 1).

Page 190: THE PROJECT FOR STUDY ON IMPROVEMENT OF BRIDGES … · 2017-01-05 · CHAPTER 2 ORGANIZATIONS CONCERNED FOR SEISMIC DESIGN OF BRIDGES ... 10.5 Policy and Outline of Example for Practical

15-120

The catchment area of Palanit River to the point Palanit Bridge is 15.9 km2 and Bangon River

to the point of Mawo Bridge is 263.9 km2, which are obtained using a topographic map

prepared by NAMRIA. The constant for Regional Specific Discharge Curve for Visayas is

14.52 for 50-year return period and 17.47 for 100-year return period (Table 16.5.2-1). Then,

Design Flood Discharge for Palanit River at Palanit Bridge is estimated at 164 m3/s for 50-

year return period and 197 m3/s for 100-year return period, that for Bangon River at Mawo

Bridge is estimated at 1,035 m3/s for 50-year return period and 1,245 m3/s for 100-year return

period.

Both Palanit Bridge and Mawo Bridge are located at almost the river mouth. Palanit Bridge is

approximately 200 m upstream from the river mouth and Mawo Bridge is approximately 700

m upstream from the river mouth. Therefore, the water level at these bridges is affected by

tide level and the non-uniform flow method shall be applied for determination of Design

Flood Level for these bridges.

According to “Manual on Flood Control Planning”, water level in non-uniform flow shall be

calculated by Energy Equation as below;

H2+V22/2g = H1+V1

2/2g+he

where, H : Water Level (m) V : Flow Velocity (m/s) g : Gravitational Acceleration (m/s2) he : Energy Head Loss (m)

A diagram showing terms of the energy equation is shown below;

Source: Manual on Flood Control Planning

Figure 15.4.2-6 Terms in the Energy Equation

The energy head loss (he) between two sections is composed of friction losses.

15-121

he = L・Sf

where, L : Reach Length (m) Sf : Representative Friction Slope between two sections

The friction slope (slope of the energy grade line) at each cross section is computed from

Manning’s equation as follows:

Sf = {( Q1+Q2 ) / ( K1+K2 )}2

where, Q : Discharge (m3/s) K : Conveyance { = ( A・R2/3 ) / n } n : Manning’s Roughness Coefficient

The mean monthly highest water level (MMHW) should be basically used for the starting

water level (H1) at the river mouth. In this study, MMHW at the river cross section 100 m

downstream of the Palanit Bridge and 100 m downstream of Mawo Bridge is adopted as the

starting water level (H1) for each calculation. According to NAMRIA, MMHW in Samar Sea

is 1.20 m (above Mean Sea Level). The tide level of Samar Sea is referred to the tidal

information observed in Catbalogan where is on the same coastline with Palanit Bridge and

Mawo Bridge, 84 km southeast of Palanit Bridge, 96 km southeast of Mawo Bridge by

NAMRIA. Tidal information at Catbalogan Tide Station is shown in Table 15.4.2-4.

As a result of the non-uniform flow calculation, the design flood level at the Palanit Bridge

(H2) is estimated at 1.72 m for 50-year return period corresponding the Design Flood

Discharge 164 m3/s, and 1.90 m for 100-year return period corresponding the Design Flood

Discharge 197 m3/s. The design flood level at Mawo Bridge (H2) is estimated at 1.31 m for

50-year return period corresponding the Design Flood Discharge 1,035 m3/s, and 1.35 m for

100-year return period corresponding the Design Flood Discharge 1,245 m3/s.

b) Site Interview

(I) Palanit Bridge

According to residential people, the observed highest water

level in flood condition is approximately 1.80 m ~ 1.90 m.

Photo 15.4.2-2

Usually the water level at the Palanit Bridge is changing

according to the tidal level. According to residential people,

the water level comes up to approximately 1.50 m in high

tide. Palanit River carries debris in flood condition. Only

small banker boat is passing under the bridge.

(II) Mawo Bridge

According to residential people, Bangon River has experienced to be flooded in 1982, 1984

and 1987 and the observed highest water level in flood condition is approximately 1.50 m.

The house situated on the right river bank has experienced to be flooded approximately 0.40

m from the ground in the flood condition (Photo 15.4.2-2). Bangon River carries debris in

flood condition.

Usually the water level at the Mawo Bridge is also changing according to the tidal level.

Only small banker boat is passing under the bridge.

c) Major Design Condition

(I) Design High Water Level

The water level at Palanit Bridge 1.90 m with Design Flood Discharge Q=197 m3/s is much

higher than the observed highest tide in Catbalogan (1.40 m), and the water level has not big

difference with the flood level which is obtained by site interview. Therefore, elevation 1.90

m might be adopted as the Design Flood Level of Palanit Bridge.

As for Mawo Bridge, the observed highest flood level (1.50 m) is higher than theobserved

highest tide in Catbalogan (1.40 m) or the water level 1.35 m with Design Flood Discharge

Q=1,245 m3/s. Therefore, elevation 1.50 m might be adopted as the Design Flood Level of

Mawo Bridge.

15-123

(II) Flow Velocity

The flow velocity with the Design Flood Discharge Q=197 m3/s at Palanit Bridge is 1.92

m/s, and 1.75 m/s at Mawo Bridge with the Design Flood Discharge Q=1,245 m3/s

(III) Vertical Clearance and Freeboard

According to the DPWH Design Guideline, freeboard allowance for embankment

corresponding to the design flood discharge is 0.60 m for Palanit Bridge, and 1.00 m for

Mawo Bridge, because the design flood discharge in Palanit Bridge is less than 200 m3/s,

and that in Mawo Bridge is between 500 m3/s and 2,000 m3/s.

And the vertical clearance of Palanit Bridge and Mawo Bridge shall not be less than 1.50 m

because Palanit River and Bangon River carries debris. Therefore, the minimum vertical

clearance between soffit of bridge and design high water level might be 1.50 m for Palanit

Bridge and Mawo Bridge.

3) Major Design Condition of 1st Mandaue-Mactan Bridge, Biliran Bridge and Liloan Bridge

According to DPWH Region Ⅶ Office, 1st Mandaue-Mactan Bridge has the navigation clearance

as below because many big vessels/ships are navigating under the bridge. And the navigation

clearance has been adopted to the design of 2nd Mandaue-Mactan Bridge constructed about 1.4

km northeast in Mactan Channel.

Vertical Clearance : 22.860 m above Mean High Water Level

Horizontal Clearance : 112.780 m

On the other hand, according to Maritime Industry Authority Marina Regional Office No.VIII,

there is no navigational ship under Biliran Bridge and Liloan Bridge. In the case of Biliran

Bridge, its vertical clearance and shallow depth limits the use thereof to mostly motorbancas. In

case of Liloan Bridge, the same is not passable for vessels/ships more than 200 GT with high

structures or booms. It is also commonly known that the unusually strong current under the

bridge and its vicinities discourage vessels/ships to pass through the said shorter route. As of

now only motorbancas passes under Liloan Bridge.

15.5 Existing Road Network and Traffic Condition

15.5.1 National Road Network

DPWH adopts a functional road network classification namely: Arterial Roads comprising North-South Backbone, East-West Laterals and other Road of Strategic Importance or Strategic Roads and National Secondary Roads (see Figure 15.5.1-1 - Figure 15.5.1-3). According to the figures, all major cities and traffic generation sources are connected with arterial roads. The definitions of the road classifications are as follows:

(1) Arterial Roads (15,987km)

North-South Backbone (5,151km)

The backbone road network in consideration of road and sea (ferry) linkages. This includes interconnection of primary centers and roads leading to growth corridors.

East-West Laterals (3,016 km)

Arterial roads which inter-links North-South backbone road network in an east-west lateral orientation across the country with an interval of 50 to 200 km.

Strategic Roads (7,819 km)

Roads which connect the other primary entries and all tertiary centers not on the above road category.

These include roads which interconnect the above category roads at an appropriate interval as well as forming a closed network and alternative roads, including island circumferential and cross-island roads.

15.5.4 Traffic Condition

Traffic count survey was carried out inside Metro Manila and outside Metro Manila to better understand the current traffic condition. The purpose of traffic count survey is show in below.

For consideration and plan of detour, the number of vehicles affected during the construction period for seismic strengthening (maintenance, repair and reinforcement) and forecasting future traffic volume.

To consider the traffic volume for detour road/bridge during seismic retrofit/replacement To forecast future traffic volume to determine necessary number of lanes

Based on these purpose, traffic survey method, result and condition is described below.

(1) Methodology of Traffic Count Survey

Traffic survey contents Traffic Survey Period : 2 weekdays from 6:00 AM to 6:00 AM inside Metro Manila and Cebu

area, 2 weekdays from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM outside Metro Manila. Type of Vehicle : 7 classifications (Motorcycle, Car, Jeepney Bus Truck etc.). Survey Method : Surveyor was using traffic counter and recording every per hour. And,

traffic volume was observed by direction.

(2) Survey Location

Summary of traffic count survey station is shown in Table 15.5.4-1.

Traffic count survey location inside Metro Manila is on Pasig River and Marikina River bridges and near intersections where are shown in Figure 15.5.4-1 and Figure 15.5.4-2. Traffic count station on bridge is 12 locations, intersection is 12 locations. Considerations of the point of determining intersection are considered to account for the long distance of detour based on traffic regulation of large truck and public transportation.

On the other hand, traffic count survey location outside Metro Manila is North Luzon area, Samar area, Cebu area and Mindanao area as shown in Figure 15.5.4-3. Traffic count on bridge is 7 bridges and intersection is 3 locations. Area of other than Cebu and Mindanao is no road for long distance of detour road. Therefore, intersection survey was carried out 3 locations.

(3) Traffic Count Survey Result

1) Traffic Volume on the Bridge

Traffic survey result is shown in Table 15.5.4-2 and Table 15.5.4-3. The traffic volume on bridges are seen annual average traffic volume (hereafter called in AADT) to use seasonal factor which was referred DPWH’s traffic survey results. The following observations can be deduced from the traffic survey results of bridges;

Guadalupe Bridge in the Metro Manila has the highest traffic volume among 12 bridges with

over 200,000 veh/day.

1st Mandaue-Mactan Bridge has the highest traffic volume outside Metro Manila.

Jones Bridge, Lambingan Bridge and Marcos Bridge inside Metro Manila and 1st Mandaue-

Matan Bridge outside Metro Manila have the high volume of Jeepney over 6,000 veh/day.

Large truck and trailer is difficult through Metro Manila, they are passing particular roads

which are C-2 and C-5 as circumferential road and Bonifacio Drive as radial road. Therefore,

Delpan Bridge, Nagtahan Bridge and C-5 Bridge have the high volume traffic of large truck

and trailer.

4) Vertical Alignment

a) Issue of the Current Road

The planning of approach roads shall consider safety and trafficability as well as requirements of road network function as emergency transportation in a disaster such large-scale earth quake.

Table 15.7.5-4 Issue of Current Road and Measure Policy

The issue of current road Measure policy Grade Grade is 7% and pedestrian’s walkability is

low. The grade is improved to 5% considering the barrier free.

Runnability The vertical curve is not secured, and there is an impact when driving.

Secure the vertical curve and improve the trafficability.

Visibility The stopping sight distance is not enough, and the safety is low by a lacking visibility.

5) Cross-Section Elements

a) Issue of the Current Road

According to discussion with DPWH, widening plan of this route to 6-lane will not be conducted for the near term because the influences of land acquisition may not be ignored. However, the road sections around Lambingan bridge are already widened to 6 lanes, hence, the number of lane of new approach road shall secure existing number of lane.

Table 15.7.5-6 Issue of Cross-Section, and Measure Policy

Issue of the cross-section Measure policy Number of Lane The number of lane of the route is 4

lane, but the bridge section is 6 lane. Secure the 6 lane same as current road.

Sidewalk width The sidewalk width is narrow with 1.2m, and the width that pedestrian can pass each other is insufficient.

Secure the 1.5m width as possible the pedestrian can pass each other.

4) Horizontal Alignment

① Secure the current horizontal alignment. ② Secure the 2 lane same as current number of lane. ③ Avoid the land acquisition and obstruction to roadside facility as possible.

5) Vertical Alignment

a) Issue of current Vertical Alignment

Existing vertical alignment does not meet appropriate geometrical design because large recess

exists around the bridge in order to connect forcedly with bridge and sub-approach roads.

This route plays a role of important function for logistics as a part of the Asian Highway. Also,

this route should meet the required function as emergency transportation in a disaster as well as

residential road and material transportation in ordinal times. Therefore, the newly planned

vertical alignment is determined based on such the important considerations.

(2) Design conditions

Generally, road pavement can be categorized into asphalt pavement consisting of asphalt top layer and concrete pavement consisting of concrete slab layer. Additionally, as an intermediate structure, a pavement structure of composite pavement can be categorized, in which asphalt top layer is executed on the concrete slab as base layer; it seems visually like asphalt pavement but structurally categorized as concrete pavement. Therefore, composite pavement has both advantage factors of concrete pavement and asphalt pavement such as structural durability of concrete pavement and adequate trafficability as well as well maintenancability of asphalt pavement, which well durability is expected rather than ordinal asphalt pavement and is often applied to highway, national road and airport in Japan. Thereby, in this project, composite pavement well applied in Japan is proposed as a recommendable structure because existing layer structures and CBR values are totally unknown;

1) Applicable Standards

The design standard of NEXCO, Japan is often applied to the design of composite pavement for Freeway and national arterial road.

2) Accumulated Large Vehicle Volume

Accumulated Large Vehicle Volume is calculated with calculation formula as follows. The large traffic volume is based on the traffic survey result.

Table 15.7.6-2 Accumulated Large Vehicle Volume Calculation Formula Accumulated Large Vehicle Volume

= Large Vehicle Volume/Day/Direction x Coefficient of Lane Number x 365 x 20yrs

Table 15.7.6-3 Accumulation of Traffic Volume of Large Vehicle Lanbingan 580×0.8×365×20 = 339(million veh) Guadalupe 9,917×0.8×365×20 = 5,792(million veh) Palanit 136×1.0×365×20 = 99(million veh) Mawo 170×1.0×365×20 = 124(million veh) Wawa 414×1.0×365×20 = 302(million veh)

15.7.9 Property of Traffic Around Guadalupe Bridge

(1) Purpose of The Examination

EDSA area at Guadalupe bridge is the critical point of heavy traffic jam because of major arterial road

connecting the center of Metro Manila to suburbs. This chronic traffic jam must causes lane change

and traffic conflict, which increase the risks of traffic accidents as well as deterioration of neighboring

environment due to exhaust fumes.

Therefore, the traffic jam at EDSA may be a pressing issue to be addressed; however, a lot of large-

scale commercial facilities are constructed along the road and MRT is running on the center of the

road; widening of the road may be quite difficult condition currently.

Consequently, because currently it may be difficult to conduct drastic countermeasure such like road

widening with land acquisition, the possibility of improvement on heavy traffic jam should firstly be

examined as the primal purpose based on widening of Guadalupe bridge, which will not be restricted

by progress of land acquisition.

15.7.10 Further Verification to be Examined in the Next Phase

The following items may be necessary to be verified or evaluated further in the next phase such as basic or detail design stages. For the topographic survey, sectional survey should be executed at least every 20m. For the traffic survey, pedestrian traffic volume may be desirable to be investigated, which

may be useful factors to determine appropriate width of side walk. Specific the right of way should be verified based on close discussion. For the drainage design, detail drainage conditions will be required for detail design. Detail pavement design shall be executed in consideration of economic efficiency and life

cycle costs based on specific values of CBR testing. For the retaining wall design, detail profiles of existing structures are required. For the revetment design, the latest conditions and planning works shall be applied.
