(Main)Drill rigs - Safety
Drill rigs - Safety
1.1 The general term "Drill Rig" covers several differing types of machines for use in the construction industry, water well drilling industry, mining and quarrying, for use above ground as well as underground and for tunnel construction. The differing tasks determine the choice of drilling method and type of machine. For this reason there are many possible ways to separate drill rigs into different groups, e.g. in accordance with:
- The task;
- The drilling method used;
- The cutting removal method;
- The type of construction work.
The methods used for drilling can be basically differentiated in percussive and rotary drilling principles.
Percussive drilling is a method by which the hole is produced by crushing the ground or rock at the bottom of the drill-hole by striking it with the drilling tool and removing the cuttings out of the bore-hole.
Rotary drilling is a method in which the drilling tool at the bottom of the borehole is rotated and at the same time, a feed force is applied by a feed system or drill collar. The ground or rock at the bottom of the borehole is crushed or cut by pressure, shear or tensile stress produced by the different drilling tools. The cuttings are periodically or continuously removed out of the bore hole.
Rotary percussive drilling is performed by a piston striking directly on the bit (down the hole hammer drills) or by percussive energy transmitted via a drill string to the bit. The piston is powered by either hydraulic fluid or compressed air.
At the same time the drill bit is rotated either continuously or intermittently.
The cuttings are continuously removed out of the borehole by a flushing medium, air or fluid which is carried to the drilling tool.
Typical examples of drill rigs covered by this standard are:
- Cable tool drill rig;
- Pile drill rigs;
- Pile top drill rig;
- Raise borer;
- Reverse circulation drill rig;
- Rotary and percussive drill rig for underground drilling;
- Rotary and percussive drill rig for surface drilling;
- Rotary drill rig with power swivel;
- Rotary spindle rig;
- Rotary drill rig for underground use.
A casing or a drilling fluid may be used to stabilize the bore hole.
Drill rigs are stationary during drilling. They may move from one place of work to another, under their own power. Self propelled drill rigs may include those mounted on lorries, wheeled chassis, tractors, crawlers, skid bases (pulled by winch). When drill rigs are mounted on lorries, tractors and trailers, or are wheeled based, transportation may be carried out at higher speeds and on public roads. When designing and constructing these units attention is drawn to regulations covering both the drill rig and traffic regulations. The questions of safety and ergonomic criteria in this standard mainly refer to the principal work, e.g. when the machine is stationary and drilling. In many cases the driver is also the operator of the drill rig. This standard deals with the significant hazards pertinent to mechanized drill rigs, when used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer. It specifies requirements of safety concerning the design, construction, operation and maintenance. This standard applies to drill rigs for surface and underground drilling in the tunnelling, mining, construction and water well drilling industries. Casing unitsare also covered by this standard. If the base of a drill rig consists of an excavator, crane, etc. it shall be covered by its own standards to the extent the requirements of this standard are not applicable.
Bohrgeräte - Sicherheit
1.1 Der allgemeine Begriff "Bohrgerät" umfasst mehrere unterschiedliche Typen von Geräten zum Gebrauch in der Bau und Brunnenbohrindustrie, im Bergbau und im Steinbruch, im Über als auch im Untertageeinsatz und im Tunnelbau.
Die verschiedenen Aufgaben bestimmen die Wahl des Bohrverfahrens und des Gerätetyps. Aus diesem Grund gibt es sehr viele Möglichkeiten, Bohrgeräte in verschiedene Gruppen zu unterteilen, z. B. entsprechend
- der Aufgabe;
- dem angewandten Bohrverfahren;
- der Art der Bohrgutförderung;
- der Art der Bauarbeit.
Die zum Bohren benutzten Verfahren können grundsätzlich in das Schlagbohr und Drehbohrprinzip unterschieden werden.
Schlagbohren ist ein Verfahren, bei dem die Bohrung durch Zerstören des Bodens oder Fels an der Bohrlochsohle mittels Schlagwirkung des Bohrwerkzeuges und Entfernen des Bohrgutes aus dem Bohrloch hergestellt wird.
Drehbohren ist ein Verfahren, bei dem das Bohrwerkzeug an der Bohrlochsohle rotiert und zur gleichen Zeit eine Vorschubkraft durch ein Vorschubsystem oder durch den Einsatz einer Schwerstange erzeugt wird.
Der Boden oder der Fels an der Bohrlochsohle wird durch Druck , Scher oder Zugspannungen zerstört, die durch die verschiedenen Bohrwerkzeuge erzeugt werden.
Drehschlagbohren erfolgt durch einen Kolben, der direkt auf die Bohrkrone schlägt (Imlochhammer), oder durch Übertragung der Schlagenergie über den Bohrstrang auf die Bohrkrone. Der Kolben wird durch hydraulische Flüssigkeit oder Druckluft angetrieben.
Zur gleichen Zeit rotiert die Bohrkrone entweder kontinuierlich oder intermittierend.
Das Bohrgut wird kontinuierlich aus dem Bohrloch durch ein Spülmedium, Luft oder Wasser, entfernt, das zur Bohrkrone geführt wird.
Typische Beispiele von Bohrgeräten, die durch diese Norm erfasst werden:
- Seilschlagbohrgerät;
- Pfahlbohrgerät;
- Aufsatzbohranlage;
- Raise borer;
- Drehtischbohrgerät;
- Untertage Sprenglochbohrgerät (Drehen und Drehschlagen);
- Übertage Sprenglochbohrgerät (Drehen (...)
Appareils de forage - Sécurité
1.1 Le terme général «appareil de forage» englobe plusieurs types de machines différentes destinées aux industries de la construction, du forage des puits d'eau, des mines et des carrières et utilisées tant en surface que dans les chantiers souterrains ou de percement de tunnels. Les différentes tâches déterminent le choix des méthodes de forage et du type de machine. C'est la raison pour laquelle il existe de nombreuses possibilités de classement des appareils de forage en différents groupes en fonction de :
la tâche ;
la méthode de forage utilisée ;
la méthode d'enlèvement des déblais ;
le type de chantier de construction.
Les méthodes de forage peuvent être fondamentalement divisées en systèmes par percussion et en systèmes par rotation.
Le forage par percussion est une méthode selon laquelle le trou est foré en broyant la terre ou le roc au fond du trou de forage en le frappant à I'aide de I'outil de forage et en évacuant les déblais hors du forage.
Le forage par rotation est une méthode dans laquelle I'outil de forage au fond du forage est entraîné en rotation et auquel on applique simultanément une force d'avance par un dispositif d'avance ou des masses tiges.
Le sol ou la roche au fond du forage est broyé ou découpé par pression, cisaillement ou effort de traction produit par différents outils de forage. Les déblais sont évacués périodiquement ou en continu à I'extérieur du forage.
Le forage par roto-percussion est exécuté par un piston qui frappe directement I'outil de forage (forage au marteau fond de trou) ou en transmettant l'énergie de percussion au trépan par un train de tiges. Le piston est mû par une source d'énergie hydraulique ou pneumatique par air comprimé.
Simultanément, I'outil de forage est entraîné en rotation de manière continue ou intermittente.
Les déblais sont évacués en continu à l'extérieur du forage, en les chassant à I'aide d'un fluide ou d'air amené jusqu'à I'outil de forage.

Introduction
The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this standard.
In addition, machinery should comply as appropriate with EN 292 for hazards which are not covered by this
standard.
Those hazards that are relevant for all mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic and other equipment of
machinery and that are dealt with in standards for common use are not covered by this standard.
Reference to pertinent standards of this kind is made where such standards are applicable and so far as is
necessary.
1 Scope
1.1 The general term "Drill Rig" covers several differing types of machines for use in the construction
industry, water well drilling industry, mining and quarrying, for use above ground as well as underground and
for tunnel construction. The differing tasks determine the choice of drilling method and type of machine. For
this reason there are many possible ways to separate drill rigs into different groups, e.g. in accordance with:
The task;
The drilling method used;
The cutting removal method;
The type of construction work.
The methods used for drilling can be basically differentiated in percussive and rotary drilling principles.
Percussive drilling is a method by which the hole is produced by crushing the ground or rock at the bottom
of the drill-hole by striking it with the drilling tool and removing the cuttings out of the bore-hole.
Rotary drilling is a method in which the drilling tool at the bottom of the borehole is rotated and at the same

1.2 This standard deals with the significant hazards pertinent to mechanized drill rigs, when used as
intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer. It specifies requirements of safety
concerning the design, construction, operation and maintenance. This standard applies to drill rigs for surface
and underground drilling in the tunnelling, mining, construction and water well drilling industries. Casing units
are also covered by this standard.
If the base of a drill rig consists of an excavator, crane, etc. it shall be covered by its own standards to the
extent the requirements of this standard are not applicable.
NOTE 1 If a drill rig operates with attachments other than those for drilling according to this standard, e.g. pile driving,
the safety standards applying to such machines shall also be complied with.
For drill rigs to be used in an explosive atmosphere (coal mining etc.) the relevant standards apply
additionally.
NOTE 2 CEN/TC 196 is preparing complementary standards for machines to be used in explosive atmospheres.
Oil and gas industry drill rigs are not covered by this standard.
