Executing Transmission Foundations in Rajasthan's Sandy Terrain
Low Bearing Capacity Sandy Soil
Desert sandy soils in Bikaner, Barmer, and Jaisalmer have low bearing capacity (50–80 kN/m²). Foundations require wider pads or driven piles to distribute tower loads without settlement. We use geotextile stabilization where required.
Wind Load Uplift Design
Rajasthan's desert zones have high basic wind speed (50–55 m/s, IS 875 Zone V). Transmission tower foundations face significant net uplift forces — requiring deeper anchor embedment and higher reinforcement ratios.
Water Table Depth
Deep water table in most desert areas simplifies dewatering but requires longer casing in loose sand above water table during bored piling.
Earthing in Sandy Soil
High soil resistivity in desert areas (>1000 Ω·m) requires extended earthing systems — chemical earthing electrodes, deep pipe earthing with bentonite slurry, per IS 3043 requirements.
