02. The hydraulic conductivity of a sand at void ratio of 0.5 is 0.022 cm/sec. Estimate its
hydraulic conductivity at a void ratio of 0.7.
03. A sand layer of the cross section shown in the figure has been determined to exist for a
800 m length of the levee. The hydraulic conductivity of the sand layer is 2.8 m/day.
Determine the quantity of water which flows into the ditch in m3/min.
04. A layered soil is shown on the figure. Estimate
the ratio of equivalent hydraulic conductivity
kx(eq)/ky(eq).
