Pavement Coring

iDrill+ owns and operates an Xcalibre Neptune Coring Rig. This rig is designed to take core samples from bituminous and concrete pavement layers. Traffic management to Chapter 8 specification can be arranged in house. Key points:-
  • Diamond core drilling up to 300mm diameter
  • Bituminous and concrete material
  • We can carry out TRL DCP insitu testing in core hole to ascertain the CBR
  • PAK Marker testing on bituminous cores
  • Production of photographic core log
  • Laboratory testing on the retrieved core such as PAH testing
  • Hand held `Magnum Gun` cores for checking utilities repair work
  • Full CAT scanning of the work area carried out by iDrill+




Structural Investigations

  • Diamond core drilling up to 150mm diameter in concrete structures
  • Production of photographic core log
  • Laboratory testing on the retrieved core can be carried out
  • Chloride Sampling
  • Carbonation Testing
  • Covermeter Surveys


Hand Held Window Sampling

The Carl Hamm hand held window sampling package. This can be used on sites where there is a narrow access to the work area. The hand held window sampling package can be used to achieve the following:-
  • Windowless sampling up to 7m depth
  • Water/Gas monitoring installations
  • Inclinometer installations


Environmental Monitoring

  • Gas monitoring information from borehole installations using Geo Instruments GA2000
  • Water/leachate level recording
  • Insitu groundwater readings using YSI556 multi probe meter with flow cell
  • Borehole development
  • Water/leachate sampling from borehole installations for contamination testing


Window Sampling

The Competitor Dart is a small tracked rig capable of drilling small diameter boreholes to shallow depths and carrying out penetration testing. Due to its small size the Competitor Dart is capable of passing through a domestic doorway. The rig can be used to achieve the following:-
  • Window/windowless sampling to 12m depth
  • Classification and contamination testing of retrieved material
  • U100 – U70 sampling
  • SPT Insitu testing
  • Dynamic probing to 12m depth
  • Water/Gas monitoring installations
  • Inclinometer installations
  • Samples retrieved can be tested for Classification and contamination analysis
  • Experienced Geotechnical Engineer provided
