Overview

Introduction

The AGS (Association of Geotechnical and Geo-Environmental Specialists) file format is the industry-leading exchange format for geotechnical data in the UK. The AGS file format is used to pass data between drillers, engineers, and clients.

RSLog boasts many features for geotechnical engineers that can improve workflows and help users save time when generating borehole logs. The RSLog AGS Editor feature allows users to edit their AGS data in spreadsheet format and utilize other RSLog features to generate borehole logs more efficiently. This enables users to generate complex reports, conduct analysis, and streamline their workflow to save time.

Workflow

Below is a description of the workflows for handling AGS data.

1. Create an AGS project by selecting the Project Type: AGS,
2. Go to Test Holes page to open the AGS Editor where you can,
3. Import AGS files, edit data and export an AGS file as needed
4. Create new AGS borehole log templates if you don't have any,
5. Go to Test Hole Logs page to generate borehole logs.

Limitations

While the AGS feature provides a unique way to streamline AGS data processing, some RSLog features are still not available for AGS projects. Below are the major restrictions and limitations for a AGS projects:

• Cross-section designer feature, and
