Hello,

I will run some thermal resistivity tests at the field. Does anyone knows where can I find typical values of thermal resistivity for clays, silts and sands.

So far, I have been following IEEE 442. It presents some tipical values but since this standard is quite old (1982) I would like to see some new references with tipical values.

Please let me know.

Thanks
 
Try searching for "thermal conductivity of soils" rather that resistivity, I believe you'll find more references.
 
Take a look at IGSHPA's website. it part of OK state.
