Abstract

In this study, multi electrode resistivity method was applied in order to identify soil profile around Necatibey Subway Station of Kizilay-Cayyolu metro line, Ankara, Turkey. The Necatibey Metro Station is located within the alluvial deposits of Dikmen stream and the so-called Ankara clay. At the metro station a number of boreholes were drilled. However, due to the spacing of the boreholes the boundary between alluvium and Ankara clay deposits could not be separated precisely. Thus, electrical resistivity studies have been planned for the delineation of the boundaries of the two deposits.
