Boring definition

Boring means a method of installation that is done underground and by which a carrier or casing is jacked through an oversize bore. The bore is carved progressively ahead of the leading edge of the advancing pipe as soil is [ mucked forced ] back through the pipe. [ Direction Directional ] drilling, coring, jacking, etc., are also considered boring.

Boring or "drilling" means the penetration of alluvial material, rocks or formations by holes for obtaining geological information, and for drawing samples therefrom;

Boring means the operation by which carriers or casings are pushed or jacked under highways without disturbing the highway structure or prism. Bores are carved progressively ahead of the leading edge of the advancing pipe as soil is mucked back through the pipe.

• Boring logs and other records of subsurface investigations, if they exist, are available for inspection by Offerors.

• Boring logs, underground utilities and other records of subsurface investigations and tests are available for inspection of bidders.

• Cable Laying with Mechanical Boring across the Road without disturbing the asphalt is to be done instructions of concerned Engineer-in-Charge with prior approval and work is to be executed as per Specifications in Schedule B only.12.

More Definitions of Boring

Boring or "soil boring" means any hole, any temporarily cased hole, or any other such installation using direct-push methods that is decommissioned pursuant to this chapter within 72 hours of completion.

Boring means a temporary hole for immediate exploration drilled or driven into the ground to determine underground conditions.

Boring means an artificially constructed, generally uncased, temporary hole below the original ground surface, made with rotary, air, water jet, direct push or similar technology, for the purpose of exploration of the subsurface of the earth for building or structure foundation, presence of water, or any other purpose other than construction of a well.

Boring means any method of mechanical penetration into the subsurface for the purpose of characterizing material properties, collecting material samples, or installing a probe or well.

Boring means piercing a hole under the surface of the ground without disturbing the earth surrounding the hole. Water jetting and puddling is not permitted. Holes may be mechanically bored and cased using a cutting head and a continuous auger mounted inside of the casing. Small diameter holes may be augured and the casing or utility facility pushed in later.

Boring means an excavation of limited diameter that is drilled, cored, driven, dug, or otherwise constructed which penetrates the saturated zone. Open borings may result in degraded water quality within the saturated zone by acting as a conduit for contamination.

Boring means a method for installing pipes underground without disturbing the surface using an auger to penetrate the ground and remove soil, while jacking a pipe just behind the cutting head.
