Site Investigation using Resistivity Imaging

<p>Subsurface investigation is the most important phase of any civil engineering construction or development activities. The geologic conditions can be extremely complex variable and subject to change with time; soil test borings and in-situ tests are employed to obtain subsoil information. Resistivity Imaging (RI) is a non-destructive fast and cost-effective method of site investigation and soil characterization.</p><p>Site Investigation using Resistivity Imaging aims to summarize pertinent details of RI in site investigation for geotechnical and geo-environmental applications. It aims to bridge the gap that currently exists between the geotechnical/geo-environmental and geophysical engineering community. The geotechnical and geo-environmental engineers will be able to use annd understand geophysical data and utilize the information for their design. </p><p>Features:</p><ul> <li>First comprehensive handbook aimed at engineers that summarises pertinent details of Resitivity Imaging (RI) in site investigation for geotechnical and geo-environmental applications.</li> <li>for geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineers making it possible to interpret geophysical data and utilize the information for their design.</li> <li>explanining the advantages of RI over conventional site investigations: continuous image large coverage low cost quick and easy data processing.</li> </ul><p>It will be a comprehensive handbook for the application of RI in geotechnical and geo-environmental site investigations.</p>
