Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the practical considerations of constructing wells, specifically the techniques used for sinking and boring them. It begins by discussing geological factors that affect well construction, such as the type of soil or rock, the presence of water-bearing strata, and the depth and slope of the well. The author then describes the various methods used to sink wells, including underpinning, drum curbs, and blasting. They also cover the methods used to bore wells, such as using hand jumpers and drills, and the use of explosives. The book concludes with a discussion of how to increase the yield of wells by driving tunnels or headings from the bottom of the well into the surrounding water-bearing stratum.
