Geotechnical core logging manual

• Logging of Rock Cores for Engineering Purposes by the Geological Society[1]. Much of the information you will require is summarised in the AusIMM Field Geologists’ Manual [4] The primary borehole log may consist of a traditional paper log, a computer coding sheet or a composite paper log with imported geophysical data.

The invention provides a method of logging rock core (31). A digital photograph of core from a borehole is taken and the image is first processed. This involves calibration and correction, or un-distortion of the digital images. A reference frame is included in the photograph to facilitate processing. The two dimensional image is then used as a virtual three-dimensional model of the core. Logging Rock Core The recovered rock core is logged in the field using at least three measures: (i) rock type, (ii) core recovery, and (iii) rock quality designation (RQD). The rock type should be identified by a qualified engineering geologist or geotechnical engineer familiar with the local geologic setting.
