For what purpose chinks are bored, what difference of chinks on water and chinks for the engineering-geological researches, what chisel installations are used and for what purposes, how a core is selected, how to keep monoliths correctly - all these, and many other things, future experts are learning during the practice. The special attention is given to sounding process, as least cost-intensive in comparison with drilling.
