Resistivity Measurement System

The resistivity measurement kit for Geocomp triaxial systems allows for laboratory determination of the minimum resistivity of a soil. Measuring soil resistance is key to determining corrosivity and how it can affect lifespan of underground structures.

Applicable Test Standards

• ASTM G187
• AASHTO T 288
