Soil Factors Behind Inground Decay of Timber Poles : Testing and Interpretation of Results

Abstract
Inground decay is a major problem associated with the reliability and safety of timber poles. In modeling inground decay for effective maintenance strategies for timber poles, it is important to identify soil factors that are influential to the inground decay. This paper investigates some of the important influential soil factors and testing methods for those factors.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
