28 CONSOLIDATION OF SEDIMENTARY ROCKS; usually determined from unweathered samples. Largely dependent on cementation. U = unconsolidated P = poorly consolidated M = moderately consolidated W = well consolidated BEDDING OF SEDIMENTARY ROCK Splitting Property Massive Blocky Slabby Flaggy Shaly or platy Papery FRACTURING Intensity Very little fractured Occasionally fractured Moderately fractured Closely fractured Intensely fractured Crushed HARDNESS Thickness Greater than 4.0 feet 2.0 to 4.0 feet 0.2 to 2.0 feet 0.05 to 0.2 feet 0.01 to 0.05 feet Less than 0.01 feet Size of Pieces in Feet Greater than 4.0 feet 1.0 to 4.0 feet 0.5 to 1.0 feet 0.1 to 0.5 feet 0.05 to 0.1 feet Less than 0.05 feet Stratification Very thick-bedded Thick-bedded Thin-bedded Very thin-bedded Laminated Thinly laminated 1. Soft - Reserved for plastic material alone. 2. Low Hardness - Can be gouged deeply or carved easily by a knife blade. 3. Moderately Hard - Can be readily scratched by a knife blade; scratch leaves a heavy trace of dust and is readily visible after the powder has been blown away. 4. Hard - Can be scratched by a knife blade with difficulty; scratch produces little powder and is often faintly visible. 5. Very Hard - Cannot be scratched by a knife blade; leaves a metallic streak STRENGTH 1. Plastic - Very low strength. 2. Friable - Crumbles easily by rubbing with fingers. 3. Weak - An unfractured specimen of such material will crumble under light hammer blows. 4. Moderately Strong - Specimen will withstand a few heavy hammer blows before breaking. 5. Strong -Specimen will withstand a few heavy ringing hammer blows and will yield with difficulty only dust and small flying fragments. 6. Very Strong -Specimen will resist heavy ringing hammer blows and will yield with difficulty only dust and small flying fragments. WEATHERING - the physical and chemical disintegration and decomposition of rocks and minerals by natural processes such as oxidation, reduction, hydration, solution, carbonation, and freezing and thawing. D. Deep - Moderate to complete mineral decomposition; extensive disintegration; deep and thorough discoloration; many fractures, all extensively coated or filled with oxides, carbonates and/or clay or silt. M. Moderate - Slight change or partial decomposition of minerals; little disintegration; cementation little to unaffected. Moderate to occasionally intense discoloration. Moderately coated fractures. L. Little - No megascopic decomposition of minerals; little or no effect on normal cementation. Slight and intermittent, or localized discoloration. Few stains on fracture surfaces. F. Fresh - Unaffected by weathering agents. No disintegration or discoloration. Fractures usually less numerous than joints.

This is an idealized cross-section through a typical fill slope, representing idealized subsurface conditions. It is not to scale and has not been developed from site specific information. Significant variations may be encountered during construction. 2. Dimensions of keyways and benches are subject to approval in the field by the geotechnical engineer's representative Subdrains may not be needed on each bench; number and location of subdrain (s) should be determined in the field by the geotechnical engineer's representative at the time of construction. Slopes steeper than 3:1 (horizontal to vertical) should be constructed with geogrid reinforcement. SUBDRAIN DETAIL (TYPICAL) ALAN KROPP & ASSOCIATES Geotechnical Consultants 3/4-inch, clean, open-graded drainrock; wrapped in an approved non-woven polyester geotextile 4-inch rigid, perforated plastic pipe, placed with holes down, on maximum of 6 inches of bedding, with at least a 2% slope. The perforated pipe system should be connected to a solid pipe system (joints glued where sloping >3:1). Provide cleanouts at "high" ends.
