Abstract

The use of an instrumented borehole drilling technique called ENPASOL as an ground investigation tool at the Kennington Park is presented. A brief description of the ENPASOL system in terms of plant and equipment and testing procedures is also given. Drilling parameters recorded from the site were analysed using various empirically derived correlations; and the analyses revealed that the recorded drilling parameters correlate well with the soil formation changes and the strength property of the soil.
