How to measure soil thermal resistance? Which measurement procedure and equipment should be used?
I need soil λ value for designing layers of green roof. It depends on moisture content off course, so the plan is to measure it at different moisture levels for different types of soil/substrate!
Thanks

Dear Piotr Kosinski & Arvind Singh thank You very much for your answers!
Please indicate what is the use you want to give to this technique. Obviusly, the type of sample has too much importance.....
Dear Mr. Juan, I need it in order to test thermal properties of different types of soil used for green roofs.
