Annex C

(informative)

Drilling and sampling equipment for soil and rock

C.1 General

The object of this annex is to provide an illustrated reference guide of the most frequently and universally used equipment for drilling and sampling in soils and rock. The annex includes information regarding basic dimensions and nomenclature. For complete information and dimensions, reference should be made to the appropriate International, European or National Standard quoted herein.

This annex also includes data charts to assist with core bit type selection in relation to ground conditions and to core bit profile selection.

Examples of the execution of certain sampling methods are also included in this annex in order to clarify certain areas in the text of this part of ISO 22475.
