What Soil Layers Are Rotary Drilling RIGS Suitable for

Rotary drilling RIGS are widely used in various projects due to their high efficiency and flexibility. However, the "compatibility" of different soil layers to them varies. Now let's talk about which soil layers the rotary drilling rig is actually suitable for.

1. Clayey soil layers: Soil layers like clay and silty clay are fine in texture and resilient. The drill bucket of the rotary drilling rig can be easily inserted, allowing for rapid soil extraction, high construction efficiency, and guaranteed hole quality.

2. Silt and sand: Silt and sand have loose particles. The rotary drilling rig can use the rotation and pressure of the drill pipe to drill quickly. However, it is necessary to control the speed to avoid hole collapse.

3. Silt and silty soil: This type of soil has a high water content and low strength. The rotary drilling rig can quickly carry out weak soil with its powerful torque and complete the drilling operation.

4. Strongly weathered rock strata: For rock strata with a high degree of weathering and relatively low hardness, by replacing the rotary drilling rig with a dedicated truncated drill bit, the rock can be broken, enabling drilling operations.

5. Gravel layer: When encountering soil layers containing a small amount of gravel, the rotary drilling rig can also handle it. By choosing the appropriate drill bucket, the gravel and soil can be carried out together, ensuring the smooth progress of the drilling.

6. Backfilling soil layer: In the backfilling areas of construction waste, soil materials, etc., the rotary drilling rig can effectively penetrate the loose backfill materials, determine the appropriate position of the pile foundation, and lay a solid foundation for subsequent construction.

In summary, rotary drilling RIGS can perform well in various soil layers such as clayey soil, silt, sand, silt, strongly weathered rock, and backfill soil. However, before construction, it is essential to conduct a detailed investigation of the geological conditions, select the right drill bit and adjust the parameters based on the characteristics of the soil layer. Only in this way can the rotary drilling rig achieve its maximum efficiency and ensure the smooth progress of the project.
