6.12 An excavation is made for a canal that is fed by a stream, as shown in Figure P6.12. The measured flow into the canal is 0.25 x 10¬* m'/s per unit area. Two porewater pressure transducers, A and B, placed along a line par- allel to the slope and approximately at the canal mid- height gave readings of 3 kPa and 2.5 kPa. Assuming flow parallel to the slope, estimate the hydraulic conductivity.

A 12” water main is being installed along the shoulder of a rural road. The excavation for the water main will be 4 feet deep and 3.5 feet wide. The soil is estimated to have a swell factor of 0.80 and an angle of repose of 31 degrees. If the stockpile will start 2 feet from the edge of the excavation, and the distance from the edge of the trench to the limits of disturbance is 20 feet, what is the estimated clear space between the far toe and of the stockpile and the limits of disturbance?
