KBA Summary:

This Knowledge Base Article describes the functionality of the record cavity.

Summary

Capturing cavities is a feature within the BlastIQ™ Mobile Drilling function that allows drill operators to formally record the presence of voids (cavities) detected during hole drilling.  

Record cavity intervals

1. Navigate to the drilling page and select a relevant hole.

2. Tap the cavity icon.

   

3. Tap "+ New cavity" button.

   

4. Enter From and To depths.

   

   • Use the numeric keypad to enter the start depth (From) and end depth (To) of the cavity.  The Length field is calculated automatically.
5. Confirm or correct any validation warnings.
   • If the entry triggers a validation error, a warning banner will appear. Sample validation rules are:

     • 'To' length must be greater than 'From' length: the end depth must always be deeper than the start depth.

       

     • Cavities cannot overlap: the depth range of a new cavity must not intersect an existing one on the same hole.

       

     • Cavity cannot exceed hole length: the "To" value cannot be greater than the hole length or hole drilled length.

       

6. Once cavities are saved, a numeric badge appears next to the cavity icon, reflecting the total number of cavities recorded for that hole and a purple dot indicator appears of that hole icon.
