Two-dimensional electrical resistivity analysis for boulders detection

Variety of methods has been used to determine the condition of ground profile these days. Conventional Boreholes and JKR probes has been used to predict the ground profile underneath and obtaining geotechnical parameter data for designing purposes. Profiling can be enhanced using two-dimensional Ele...
