Boring Methods of Exploration of Soil
The boring methods are used for exploration at greater depths where direct methods fail.
These provide both disturbed as well as undisturbed samples depending upon the method of
boring. In selecting the boring method for a particular job, consideration should be made for
the following:
The materials to be encountered and the relative efficiency of the various boring
methods in such materials
The available facility and accuracy with which changes in the soil and ground water
conditions can be determined
Possible disturbance of the material to be sampled
