“Guidelines for Geotechnical Engineering Organization on Zonal Railways” was earlier
issued by RDSO and circulated to Zonal Railways in February 1987. Due to the
upgradation of field and laboratory equipments and newly arising problems of the
fields/sites, it was felt that this guidelines need to be modified and upgraded. Railway
Board also instructed to upgrade this Guidelines. Therefore this Guidelines has been
modified.
The views expressed are subject to modifications from time to time in the light of
future developments on the subject. The views do not represent the views of the

Guidelines For Geotechnical Engineering Organization in Zonal Railways
Introduction
Railway Board has been emphasizing that each zonal railway should establish
Geotechnical Engineering (GE) Cell. The main objective of setting up GE Cell is that
the railways should be able to collect field data, conduct subsurface exploration and to
test the soil samples for engineering properties on their own. Though GE laboratories
at present exist on some zonal railways, yet many zonal railways’ construction
organizations are still without GE laboratories. Based on feedback and past
experiences
from various zonal railways, it is gathered that establishing a full
fledged GE laboratory seems to be an uphill task for the zonal railways already facing,
inter alia, newer challenges of the present. Earlier “Guidelines for Geotechnical
Engineering Organization on Zonal Railways” was issued by RDSO and circulated to
Zonal Railways in February 1987. But with the recent advancements in Geotechnical
Engineering and other changes with the passage of time, it has become imperative to
revise this guideline. With this in view and taking a pragmatic approach to achieve the
objective in true sense, an endeavour has been made to make the guidelines concise
and more useful.

v/;;u {kss=
Scope
In order to achieve the objective in real terms, the GE laboratories have been
categorized into two Scales, i.e. Scale-1 and Scale - 2. Scale-1 laboratories are those
that are set up on smaller scale, while Scale–2 laboratories are those that are fullfledged and called base laboratories having both laboratory and field equipments.
The Scale –1 laboratories will be the laboratory set up in the field at
construction site where construction is going on. The number of such laboratories will
depend on quantum of earthwork. The main function of these laboratories is to check
the quality of earthwork and perform routine soil testing.
The Scale-2 laboratories will be set up in zonal railway head quarter. This
laboratory shall have large equipments in addition to equipments for Scale-1. In this
guidelines, type of tests to be conducted, manpower required for each category of the
laboratories is discussed alongwith other aspects like functioning of lab, quality
control and laboratory layout.

5.1
The team would collect field data required for the project and shall conduct soil
sampling. They must have a bare minimum set of field equipments and
manpower for handling and storing this equipment. They shall also conduct
any field tests, if required and watch the post-construction behaviours
wherever required.
5.2
The team should be able to conduct the routine soil test for classifying the soil
samples and finding out other parameters as desired for designing the project.
For this, soil mechanics laboratory is needed with essential equipments and
staff for conducting the tests in addition to storing of samples, their handling
and maintenance of laboratory equipment.
5.3
In addition to above, the GE laboratory shall be needed to perform the
following :
i)
ii)
iii)
iv)
v)
vi)
vii)
Functioning of GE Cells
In case of field problems referred to the GE laboratories, they should be
able to identify different soil tests to be carried out and perform such
identified tests.
In case field problem is required to be referred to RDSO, GE laboratory will
associate for experience gain and development of in-house expertise.
The GE laboratory should ensure that any consultancy rendered by RDSO is
implemented in the field and quality is assured.
When implemented, the efficacy of the work would be monitored and
documented.
After implementation of work as per RDSO consultancy, completion report
should be kept by GE laboratory and feedback comments on effectiveness
of recommendations should be communicated to RDSO.
GE related items will also be monitored as per Correction Slip No. 89 to
IRPW manual’s para 211 (1) (v).
All the design parameters or remedial measures found out by the GE Cell
should be got approved by the competent authority on the Railway, as the
cost of these proposals would be considerable. A copy of these shall be
sent to RDSO for the purposes of data documentation and for building up a
central information storage. This is essential so that experience of one
railway may be used for the benefit of others.
