Generate and Print a Drill Sheet
This video, recorded using an earlier version of DataBlast Pro, provides an example of how to generate and print a drill sheet.
A drill sheet is a report of the holes in a drill pattern. The report is designed to be printed to facilitate manual data collection about the holes as they are drilled.
The design and content of the report is fully customisable. A typical drill sheet may have fields for the drilling operation, including the date, shift, supervisor, crew, drill and operator. For each hole, the report lists the hole ID, design depth, design angle and design bearing. For holes that have already been drilled, the existing drill depth displays. Otherwise, there is space for entering the drilled depth, as well as comments for each hole.
The collected data can be entered in the Drill Module. See Enter Drill Log Data.
Activity Steps
