@PA_PUC Good to see facility owners and project owners on that list too, not just excavators. Accurate marks and a fair schedule prevent as many hits as the crew does.
@neohionews From the drill side, asking for real drawings before a bore isn't a burden. Marks, potholed crossings and a plan on paper is how it should be done anyway.
@ClickB4UDigMB Same goes for the bore plan. Locate sheet and a printed profile in the truck covers you when somebody asks questions later. I made a free one-page profile for that: boresheet.com
@Trinityboring 385 ft of hard sandstone under two creeks and a dam is a real shot. Nice work. Rock bores are where a solid plan pays for itself, which is why I built a free rod-by-rod planner for crews like ours: boresheet.com
Before you set the rig, write down the depth you need at every crossing. If you can't fill that in, you're not planning the bore, you're guessing it. Free rod-by-rod sheet that does it on your phone: boresheet.com
@UConOnline Congrats to the class. A lot of us small outfits learned off the folks who figured this stuff out first. That's half the reason BoreSheet exists, to pass the basics on.
@neohionews Full drawings up front is fair after Twinsburg. Most small crews never had a clean way to put one together. Shot depths, crossings and entry/exit pins on one page should be the floor.
@CleanerMagazine One truck to 17 people is a real climb in this trade. Pairing HDD with hydrovac makes sense since you're potholing the crossings anyway. Running a small boring outfit myself, and the paperwork side is why I built boresheet.com.
@TrenchlessTech@Subsite Paper to rod-by-rod is overdue. Most small crews I know still sketch it on the tailgate. I built a free one that works with any rig and any rod for that reason: boresheet.com
