<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bedrock probing method capable of easily and securely predicting geological features based on measuring data of a hydraulic system mainly when drilling a hole by a hydraulic rock drill. SOLUTION: Hole drilling energy indicating energy amount required for drilling a bedrock per unit volume is calculated by corresponding to hole drilling distance when the bedrock to be probed is drilled by the hydraulic rock drill 2 to predict the property of geological features based on the hole drilling energy. In the calculation of the hole drilling energy, impact energy is first calculated from a pressure receive area of a piston of a hydraulic cylinder device giving an impact when drilling the hole, a stroke length of the piston, and an impact pressure. Next, hole drilling energy is calculated from impact energy, the number of striking per unit time, hole drilling speed, and a hole cross sectional area for drilling the hole. When the hole is drilled, a feed pressure for pressing a bit of the hydraulic rock drill 2 against the bedrock is kept substantially constant during drilling of the hole.</p> |
