Why is it important?

For safe and proper execution of various civil and electrical engineering projects, determination of thermal resistivity of soils is quite essential. However, thermal properties of soils would play an important role for extremely environmental sensitive projects such as disposal of high-level radioactive waste in deep underground disposal sites or repositories
