Temperature Estimation

As shown in the figure on the right, place a thermometer in the bottom of the hole and leave it in place for 2-3 minutes. Then quickly pull out the thermometer and take a reading. Avoid taking temperature right after drilling since the temperature of the hole is higher because of friction heat. The temperature of the rock or concrete being broken is important first step.
