Air Core Drilling (AC)
Air core drilling is a simple and effective technique that consists of cutting samples from unconsolidated soil and rock in order to be analyzed. The sample is extracted using an injection of compressed air, which forces it to enter the inner tubes. Once collected, the sample is not only undisturbed, it is an almost 100% accurate representation of the soil.
