ONTARIO MOT HIGHWAY INVESTIGATION EXAMPLE

WinLoG Ontario MOT Borehole Example

A complete 10 m Ontario MOT-style highway borehole with pavement, fill, sampling, penetration, moisture, strength, density, and grain-size data.

This example shows how WinLoG organizes the subsurface information used for Ontario transportation projects. BH-MTO-01 Highway 7 Culvert presents pavement structure, fill and native soils, eight split-spoon samples, SPT N-values, dynamic cone penetration, shear strength, water content, Atterberg Limits, dry density, grain-size results, elevations, and field remarks on a professional MOT-style log.

The 10 m Guelph, Ontario borehole supports a Highway 7 culvert investigation and includes asphaltic concrete, granular base, sand and gravel fill, sandy silt fill, silty clay, and dense sandy silt till. Automated validation passes with 88% completeness, Good quality, 81% confidence, and no errors or warnings.

An Integrated Transportation Borehole Dataset

This record demonstrates how pavement, granular base, fill, native soil, and sampling data can be interpreted beside dynamic cone penetration, shear strength, water content, Atterberg Limits, dry density, grain-size distribution, elevations, and drilling observations. All datasets share a common depth scale for efficient transportation and foundation-engineering review.

The supplied validation report records Passed status, 88% completeness, Good quality, an 81% confidence score, zero errors and zero warnings.
