This document deals with principles of sampling of soil, rock and groundwater as part of the programme of geotechnical investigation and testing.<\/p>\n
NOTE\u00a01\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This document fulfils the requirements for sampling of soil, rock and groundwater, and groundwater measurements as part of the programme of geotechnical investigation and testing according to EN\u00a01997-1 and EN\u00a01997-2.<\/p>\n
The aims of such ground investigations are:<\/p>\n
a) to recover soil, rock and water samples of a quality appropriate to assess the general suitability of a site for geotechnical engineering purposes and to determine the required ground characteristics in the laboratory;<\/p>\n
b) to obtain information on the sequence, thickness and orientation of strata and discontinuities;<\/p>\n
c) to establish the type, composition and condition of strata;<\/p>\n
d) to obtain information on groundwater conditions and recover water samples for assessment of the interaction of groundwater, soil, rock and construction material.<\/p>\n
Soil sampling for the purposes of agricultural and environmental soil investigation is not covered.<\/p>\n
NOTE\u00a02\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Guidance on soil sampling for these purposes including of contaminated or potentially contaminated sites is provided in the ISO\u00a018400 series. ISO\u00a018400-204 provides in addition guidance on sampling and measurement of soil (ground) gas.<\/p>\n
NOTE\u00a03\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The sampling methods, presented in this document may not be suitable for all types of soil e.g. peat with strong fibrous structure.<\/p>\n
NOTE\u00a04\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Some of the sampling methods presented in this document are suitable for both soil and rock.<\/p>\n
Water sampling for the purposes of quality control, quality characterisation and identification of sources of pollution of water, including bottom deposits and sludges, is not covered.<\/p>\n
NOTE\u00a05\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Water sampling for these purposes can be found in the ISO 5667 series.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
