Borehole logs are used to display the results of oil and gas, mining, geotechnical and environmental drilling and sampling.

A site investigation, also called geotechnical investigation, is done by taking ground samples for analysis and creating a detailed report of findings and recommendations for the site.

It is crucial in helping engineers identify hazards and risks to be mitigated before a construction project begins and determine if a location is ideal for planned development.

The site investigation report can help gather data for determining current and future risks to be considered before beginning a project.

Its also useful in long-term planning because it helps foresee natural or human-made changes and determines corrosivity caused by groundwater conditions.

Here are some common hazards that engineers should look out for during site investigations.

Consult the government and local stakeholders on the possible social impact to and by the project.

The samples are taken into a laboratory for further testing and the detailed results are included in the geotechnical report.

Geotech checklists also help improve the quality of geotechnical reports and avoid duplicate site investigations.
