Is there a typical soil resistivity for Charleston?+
No citywide value can represent a parcel, substation, route, or facility. Charleston sites often contain Coastal Plain sand, silt, clay, shallow groundwater, and placed fill. Moist coastal ground requires clear station-condition notes so current readings are not generalized to every season. 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 Charleston 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.
