A sand deposit 10 m thick overlies an impervious layer. A vertical sheet pile penetrates half way into the sand deposit. The water level on one side of the wall is 3.0 m and on the other side is 0.5 m above the ground level. The sand stratum has a vertical permeability of 1.44 m/day, and the horizontal permeability equals 8 times the permeability in vertical direction. A flow net construction reveals that there are 12 flow channels and 26 potential drops. The seepage flow per day, per meter length of sheet pile
