This instrumentation is installed in the probing hole and performed with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gomeeting.eu\/all-courses\/esplorazione-del-sottosuolo-tramite-sondaggi-a-carotaggio-continuo-e-utilizzo-del-software-stratigrapher-2-crediti-cfp-015-geostru-20\/\">continuous core drilling<\/a> or core destruction.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\">Types of piezometer<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There are different types of piezometers adopted in low to the hydrogeological complexity present in the study site. Below are some of them.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><em>Open Tube Piezometer<\/em><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In <u>simple hydrogeological conditions<\/u>, characterized by a single free water table, the most suitable and economical choice for the measurement of the groundwater level is the <strong>open tube piezometer<\/strong> (<span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong>Fig.1A<\/strong><\/span>). It consists of a cracked or microslotted PVC pipe (<strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff\">Fig.1 B and C<\/span>)<\/strong> in the pitched sections and installed inside the probing hole.<br \/>\nParticular care must be taken when placing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dvktSaCzkSg&amp;t=1s\">siliceous gravel calibrated<\/a> in the gap between the piezometric pipe and then drilled. Generally, it is advisable to isolate the first 2\u20133 meters of the surface by injecting bentonite into the cavity in order to avoid the runoff water reaching the water table.<br \/>\nIn more <u>complex hydrogeological conditions<\/u>, characterized by pressurized strata or artesian strata in multifalda contexts, it is advisable to use Casagrande or Vibrating Chord piezometers (explained in the following paragraphs) by inserting groundwater insulation methods in pressure with respect to the free flow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\"><strong>Impact of soil permeability on the time taken to restore hydrogeological conditions for first reading<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Once the installation phase of the piezometric pipe has been completed, it will be necessary to wait a certain period of time for the first reading. This time depends heavily on the permeability of soils, as it is necessary to restore the conditions of hydrogeological equilibrium. In particular, the use of circulation fluids during the drilling phase alters the static level of the aquifer. In the case of inconsistent soils or fractured lithotypes, the first reading can also be performed the day after the completion of the survey, while for cohesive soils (silts and clays) it will be necessary to wait at least 7\u201310 days.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10076\" style=\"width: 778px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10076\" class=\"wp-image-10076 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/tubo-aperto-768x689_en.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"689\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/tubo-aperto-768x689_en.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/tubo-aperto-768x689_en-300x269.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10076\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong>Figure 1<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 Open tube piezometer with photographic details of blind and microslotted PVC tubes<\/em><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The measurement of the water level inside open tube piezometers is commonly done by the electric frequency meter or by a pressure transducer (<span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong>Fig.2<\/strong><\/span>).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9504\" style=\"width: 424px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9504\" class=\" wp-image-9504\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/freatimetro-02-300x185.jpg\" alt=\"freatimetro\" width=\"414\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/freatimetro-02-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/freatimetro-02-1024x631.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/freatimetro-02-768x473.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.geostru.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2023\/01\/freatimetro-02.jpg 1192w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-9504\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em><span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong>Figure 2<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 A) Diagram of use of the freatimeter, B) Instrumentation of the freatimeter and protection cover of the piezometric piping.<\/em><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\">What ground is it suitable for?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">It is mainly suitable for sandy-gravelly coarse soils.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><em>Piezometer of Casagrande<\/em><\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Unlike the open-tube piezometer, the <strong>Casagrande<\/strong> one allows the measurement of neutral pressures.<br \/>\nThe principle of operation is based on the change in the volume of a vessel (in this case the piezometer) following immersion in a water table.
