My reading of BS 1377: Part 9, item 3.3.5 (f) is that it does not explicitly
requires the initial penetration to be reported. It requires the initial
depth to the bottom of the borehole to be reported and this can be used to
work out the initial penetration. However, what really matters is the
significance of this penetration, particularly in Alex's case when the
lowest SPT 'N' is 25.
