Abstract
A method is for generating a freeroom for a mast element in a ground. The method includes the steps: a) drilling a first annular recess into the ground, the first recess having: a first diameter; and a first depth; b) drilling a second annular recess in the ground, the second recess being arranged to receive the mast element, and the second recess: having a diameter which is smaller than the first diameter; having a second depth which is larger than the first depth; surrounding a first core of the ground; and being surrounded by the first recess; wherein there is, defined between the first recess and the second recess, a second core which can be removed to generate a freeroom.
Claims13
A method for generating a freeroom for a hollow mast element in a ground, the method comprising:
- a) drilling a first annular recess into the ground using a drill rig having a first slot drill mounted thereto, the first slot drill being replaceable and having a first diameter, the first annular recess having the first diameter and a first depth;
- and
- b) drilling a second annular recess into the ground using the drill rig having a second slot drill mounted thereto instead of the first slot drill, the second slot drill being replaceable and having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter,
- the second annular recess having the second diameter and a second depth and surrounding a first core of the ground, wherein after drilling the first annular recess and the second annular recess the second depth which is larger than the first depth, the second annular recess is located within the first annular recess, and a second core of the ground is defined between the first annular recess and the second annular recess,
- and wherein the second annular recess is arranged to receive the hollow mast element with the hollow mast element surrounding the first core of the ground and being surrounded by the first annular recess;
- and
- c) generating the freeroom by removing the second core.
A method for generating a freeroom for a hollow mast element in a ground, the method comprising:
- drilling a first annular recess into the ground, the first annular recess having a first diameter and a first depth;
- drilling a second annular recess into the ground, the second annular recess having a second diameter and a second depth, wherein after drilling the first annular recess and the second annular recess the second depth is greater than the first depth and the second diameter is less than the first diameter, wherein a first core of the ground is surrounded by the second annular recess and a second core of the ground is defined between the first annular recess and the second annular recess, and wherein the second annular recess is arranged to receive the hollow mast element such that the hollow mast element surrounds the first core;
- and
- generating the freeroom by removing the second core.
