A Technique for Installing Induction Coils in a Profile with Minimum Soil Disturbance
1975
Spotts, J. W. | Brown, K. W.
Details of a technique are given which can be used to position induction coils in an undisturbed soil profile to study the shrinking and swelling within the soil profile with changing moisture content. The specially designed apparatus consists of a soil cutting blade which can be advanced horizontally from an access hole into the soil at the desired depth. The induction coils are installed in the slots after the holes have been cut. Installations have been made successfully at depths as great as 2 m.
