Soil investigations involve the following steps: Planning the details and sequence of operations. This boring log should detail the following information: project destination and location; the boring number; final location of boring; method of boring; drill rig type and sample; date of boring and weather; ground elevation; numerical thickness and depth of various soil layers (shown by feet below ground surface or by elevation); a complete description of each soil layer; the elevation of free water during the drilling, at completion of drilling and 24 hours later; additional information obtained during boring, sample number and depth of samples taken; percent recovery on split spoon and undisturbed samples; driller; and inspector.
