Internal Drilling Methods What is this “Plug Drilling” Method? g g
Featured in Foundation Drilling Magazine – Dec/Jan 2009 issue.
Can “Plug Drilling” work everywhere? What does it really take to drill a proper
hole/pile? Discussion

Minimal loss of ground in cohesionless soils
Possible borehole smearing in clays

Plug Drilling – What is it?g g
In Plug Drilling the Casing extendsCasing extends well beyond the inner steel, forcing internal (between
Reason for Plug Drilling???

Possible Disadvantagesg
“H i hi ith th f l b d ill “Having a machine with the power of a large bore drill allows to plug drill”
M k i h d f th k d lt Makes casing shoe do more of the work and can result in excess wear which can result in premature termination of hole (shoe worn out) requiring extraction of casing ( ) g g(leaving an open hole).
What happens when you get stuck?
More torque induced into casing which can result in difficulties extracting and breaking joints for pressure grouted micropiles (joints seized up).
Possible conditions for “Plug Drilling”g g
N t i ti i i C l d ill h d ith No restrictions on rig size. Can use large drill head with high torque.
Y d ill ith i l t k hi ith t You can drill with a single stroke machine, without adding casing.
Y h t ll t f th d ill h l You never have to pull out of the drill hole.
If “plug drilling” is not performedIf plug drilling is not performed properly you may need a lot of grout!!!grout!!!
