Research on the electrical resistivity characteristics of statue remolded soil

Abstract

In order to study the electrical resistivity characteristics of the statue remodeled soil and make it play a role in the theory and related engineering applications, the electrical resistivity measurement of the statue remodeled soil was carried out using the a two-electrode method.This paper analyzes the law and characteristics between the electrical resistivity of the coarse and fine mud layers of the statue and the water content and dry density, and establishes the empirical model of the electrical resistivity of the coarse and fine mud layers.The measurement indicate that the electrical resistivity of the coarse and fine mud layers of the remodeled soil of the statue shows a power function decrease with the increase of mass water content, and with the increase of dry density.And under the conditions of the same mass water content and dry density, the electrical resistivity of the coarse mud layer is always lower than that of the fine mud layer.Based on the experimental results, the electrical resistivity model of the coarse and fine mud layers of the statue remodeled soil and the relationship model between the electrical resistivity of the earthen plaster of statue and the mass water content are proposed. This will provide reference for the non-destructive testing of the moisture content of the precious cultural relics of the statue and the engineering research and practical engineering application of similar materials such as the reinforced soil slope protection, retaining wall and foundation, etc.
