Coring and Foundation Drilling

Drilling - Soil Sampling

Asphalt Concrete and PCC Coring The Materials Lab cores asphalt concrete whenever there is insufficient compaction or any other questionable defects in paving. The CME 45C is mounted on a Ford F-450 all-wheel drive pickup truck, which allows for access to flood channels and other difficult locations. The Lab also has portable coring machines with water supply for limited access coring.

Exploratory Boring

The Mobile B-61 is used for deep boring operations for in-place sampling. This sampling method is used for foundation design, landslides, setting wells, and other geotechnical projects.
