WinLoG SCDOT Boring Log Example

A complete South Carolina DOT-style transportation boring with pavement, roadway fill, soil descriptions, split-spoon samples, individual blow increments, calculated N-values, groundwater, elevations, and an SPT resistance plot.

SCDOT-B-01 I-26 Bridge Replacement demonstrates how WinLoG presents field investigation data for a highway bridge project. The 30 ft boring records asphalt and aggregate base over fill, coastal plain soils, residual materials, and progressively increasing penetration resistance.

The native SCDOT-style layout combines a continuous material profile with sample depths, sample identifiers, three 6-inch blow-count increments, SPT N-values, and a logarithmic resistance graph. Automated validation passes with 100% completeness, Good quality, 85% confidence, and no errors or warnings.

A Transportation Boring from Pavement to Competent Residual Soil

The profile begins with asphalt concrete and aggregate base, passes through silty sand fill and fine sand, then transitions into stiff sandy clay and increasingly dense residual silty sand. The sequence demonstrates how roadway construction materials and native subsurface conditions can be reviewed on a single depth-aligned record.

The validation report records Passed status, 100% completeness, Good quality, an 85% confidence score, and zero errors and zero warnings.
