3、d holes.The samplers can be continuous or discreteinterval units.Samplers are advanced by static push,or impactsfrom hammers,or vibratory methods,or a combination thereof,to the depth of interest.Both single tube and dual(double)tubesystems may be advanced for soil sampling with direct pushmethods.D
4、irect push methods are most often used to collectgeo-environmental soil samples.These soil samples are usedfor soil classification(Practice D2488)and lithologic/hydrostratigraphic logging as well as being sub-sampled forcontaminant and chemical analyses.1.2 Other drilling and sampling methods may ap
