ABSTRACT
Example 4.10 The following details refer to a test to determine the value of k of a soil sample: sample thickness =2.5 em, diameter of soil sample =7.5 em, diameter of stand pipe =10 mm, initial head of water in the stand pipe = 100 em, water level in the stand pipe after 3 h 20 min = 80 em. Determine the value of k if e = 0.75. What is the value of k of the same soil at a void ratio e =0.90?
