From the constant head permeability test, a sample of soil wastested and the following data were obtained and recorded.
Thickness of soil in the permeameter = 18.74-in
Diameter of permeameter = 1.12-in
Constant head difference = 24.58-in
Water collected in a period of 3 minutes =23.54-in3.
If the void ratio of the soil in the permeameter is 0.77,determine the following:
a. Coefficient of permeability, in in/s.
b. Seepage velocity, in in/s.
