Two clay specimens A and B, of thickness 2cm and 3 cm, has equilibrium voids ratios 0.65 and 0.70 respectively under a pressure of 200kN/m². If the equilibrium voids. ratio of the two soils reduced to 0.48 to 0.60 respectively when the pressure was increased to 400kN/m², find the ratio of coefficients of permeability of the two specimens. The time required by the specimen A to reach 40 degree of consolidation is one fourth of that required by specimen B for reaching 40% degree of consolidation.
