Age 15Explain it to a 15-year-oldConnect it to the formula

Rock quality designation compares summed qualifying intact core-piece lengths with the drilled run length. This page isolates sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths and verifies it in the original relationship. The rule is a=cb/100. Its input values are rock quality designation percentage, drilled core-run length, and the main result is sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths. For example: sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths=2.1 and drilled core-run length=3 produce rock quality designation percentage=70.

CollegeExplain it at college levelState the model precisely

This calculator evaluates the stated rock quality designation: solve sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths relation over the valid real-number domain stated below. The implemented relation is a=cb/100, evaluated from rock quality designation percentage, drilled core-run length to produce sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths. Rock quality designation compares summed qualifying intact core-piece lengths with the drilled run length. This page isolates sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths and verifies it in the original relationship. Use the specified minimum piece length and core diameter; drilling breaks, orientation, weathering, soft infill, and run selection affect RQD.

Inputs and valid domain

  • rock quality designation percentage must be a finite real number.
  • drilled core-run length must be a finite real number.

Important boundary: Use the specified minimum piece length and core diameter; drilling breaks, orientation, weathering, soft infill, and run selection affect RQD.

The formula

a=cb/100

How the calculator works through it

It substitutes rock quality designation percentage, drilled core-run length into the formula and exposes every numerical step above. The main output is sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths, accompanied by Reconstructed rock quality designation percentage.

Read the result correctly

The sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths is the direct answer to “rearrange the rock quality designation relationship and solve for sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths.” Read it with the units shown beside the inputs; a sign, angle, percentage or rate changes what the number means.

A worked check

sum of qualifying sound core-piece lengths=2.1 and drilled core-run length=3 produce rock quality designation percentage=70.

Where this model stops being reliable

Use the specified minimum piece length and core diameter; drilling breaks, orientation, weathering, soft infill, and run selection affect RQD.

Learn it by changing one value

Begin with the worked example, then change one value while keeping the others fixed. Compare the new result and calculation steps to identify which part of the formula changed.
