Ground Drilling
Ground drilling is the process of creating holes in the earth's surface using specialized equipment. This technique is commonly used for various purposes, including geotechnical investigations, water well drilling, and mineral exploration. The equipment can range from small handheld drills to large drilling rigs, depending on the depth and diameter of the hole required.
The drilling process typically involves rotating a drill bit to penetrate the ground, while simultaneously removing the cuttings. Different types of drill bits are used based on the soil or rock type, ensuring efficient and effective drilling. Safety measures and environmental considerations are essential throughout the drilling operation.
