Today, a friend called me who was doing a project. They had a copper
coated
steel rod about 5/8" dia. that was to be used as a ground rod for
electrical. They had no means of bending it, as it had to make a couple
of
three doglegs to get around concrete.

Are they going to drive the rod into the ground with bends in it? I
don't see how that is going to work.

The ditch has been dug. They just wanted to make it conform to the concrete
foundation and follow the concrete outside that. It will be placed in there
and buried.
