Borehole Construction
Deep Dive

The Construction tab is divided into two synchronized panels:

• Add construction elements like casing, filter, and seal sections layer by layer.
• A schematic visualization shows the well construction next to the depth scale.
• Diameters can be set per layer for accurate as-built records.

Click "+ Add Element" in the table header to create a new construction element.

Construction Element Types

• Solid pipe to stabilize the borehole. Specify outer/inner diameter and material (steel, PVC, stainless, HDPE, fiberglass).
• Perforated/slotted section for water intake. Specify diameter, slot size, and screen type (slotted, wire-wrapped, perforated, louvered).
• Filter section — permeable element used for groundwater monitoring.
• Sealing section — bentonite or grout to isolate aquifers.
• Material to fill annular space in non-critical zones. Specify material and compaction level.

Each construction layer has depth limits, a type, and diameter information.

• From depth (m) — top of the construction layer.
• To depth (m) — bottom of the construction layer.
• Diameter (mm) — outer diameter of the element.
• Material (Steel, PVC, Stainless Steel, HDPE, Fiberglass)
• Add free-text notes for any special construction details.

The right panel shows a vertical cross-section of the borehole construction.
