pls ans soon as posssible During a constant head permeability test on a sand sample, 260ml of water was collected in 2 min. If the sample had a length of 100 mm, a diameter of 40 mm and a maintained head of 200 mm, what is the coefficient of permeability?
FUNDAMENTALS OF GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS A constant head permeability test is performed on soil that is 2 cm x 2 cm square, and 2.5cm long. The head difference applied during the test is 20 cm and 7 cm3 is collected over a time of 100 sec. a) Compute the permeability based on these test conditions and results. b) A falling head test is conducted on the same soil specimen at the same time (t1 – t2 = 100 sec), and the standpipe diameter is 0.8 cm. If the average head during the test should be 18 cm, what are h1 and h2 values?
