Bore logs
for every crossing.
Log each bore installation with entry/exit stations, product type, bore diameter, and as-built depth. Inspector-ready HDD and auger bore documentation for utility and pipeline contractors.
What it does
Bore installation log
- Bore ID, entry/exit station and coordinates
- Product type (conduit, pipe, casing diameter)
- Bore diameter and length
- Drilling fluid type and volume used
As-built depth records
- Depth readings at set intervals (e.g., every 10 ft)
- GPS coordinates for entry and exit pits
- Deviation from design alignment
- Coverage verification for minimum burial depth
Photos & documentation
- Attach entry pit, exit pit, and bore path photos
- Inspector sign-off on bore records
- Notes on soil conditions, obstructions, or delays
- Tie to the daily report for the full picture
Reporting
- Bore schedule summary with all crossings
- As-built bore log PDF for utility owner submittals
- Share via link for engineer and inspector review
- Export coordinates for GIS or CAD review
How it works
01
Create the bore entry
For each crossing, set up the bore ID, product type, and design specs. Takes under 2 minutes.
02
Log installation data
Record entry/exit coordinates, bore depth, and product installed. Attach photos of the pits and bore path.
03
Verify depth & alignment
Log depth readings along the bore path to verify minimum burial depth and alignment to design.
04
Close out the bore record
Mark the bore complete and generate the as-built PDF for the utility owner, engineer, or inspector.
Who uses this
HDD & utility contractors
Document every bore crossing with the as-built data the utility owner and engineer need to close the permit.
Pipeline & conduit crews
Track product type, bore depth, and alignment for every crossing on the job. No missing records at project closeout.
Project managers
See bore completion status across the job. Know which crossings have open issues before the inspector visits.

Common questions
What types of bore installations does Gradelog support?
Gradelog supports horizontal directional drilling (HDD), auger boring, pipe ramming, and jack-and-bore installations. You can log any bore type with custom product and diameter fields.
Can I track depth of cover for bores?
Yes. The Depth of Cover feature ties to bore records, letting you verify minimum burial depth requirements for each crossing product type (e.g., 48" for gas, 36" for power).
Does Gradelog support multiple crossings on the same job?
Yes. Each bore is a separate record within the job, with its own ID, product type, coordinates, and status. You can have hundreds of bore records on a single job.
Can the engineer or utility owner view bore records?
Yes. Share a link to the bore log or individual crossing record. The recipient can view the as-built data and download the PDF without a Gradelog account.
