Is there a typical soil resistivity for Boise?+
No citywide value can represent a parcel, substation, route, or facility. Boise combines hot, dry summers with cold winters. Boise River alluvium, terraces, loess, gravelly fan deposits, and construction backfill can retain and lose moisture at different rates. Field measurements must be tied to the actual array, location, spacing, orientation, and current condition.
Does Wenner electrode spacing equal test depth?+
No. Larger spacing generally samples a larger earth volume, but spacing is not an exact one-to-one depth. Layering, array geometry, site boundaries, and conductive features affect the apparent response.
What information is needed to scope a Boise survey?+
Send the site plan, survey objective, grounding or corrosion design request, proposed stations and spacings, final grading information, candidate line corridors, utility-clearance responsibility, access rules, schedule, and required report format.
Can Calicore mobilize outside California?+
Yes. Calicore performs project-based Wenner field programs throughout the United States when the station count, spacing, access, schedule, and mobilization are practical.
