CPD, also known as shell and auger drilling, uses a large tripod rig and winch to lift and drop a cutting tool inside a steel casing tube. This case maintains stability and prevents the borehole collapsing from any insecure soil. The cutting tool used is dependent on the type of ground substrate.
[pdf] An auger drill is a spiral-shaped tool. Its main function is the drilling of holes in the ground and other materials - or surfaces such as ice, wood, etc. The design of an auger depends on the kind of material it's meant to drill into, hence there are different types of auger drills. Auger drills come in varying sizes and can drill holes up to a depth of 95 feet below the ground. They are known to be quite versatile, saving time and energy during construction work or even personal projects. T.
